THE LADIES’ COLUMN.
HOW TO ‘MAKE HOME HAPPY?
Are you the mistress of a family ? ful
fil the charge for which you are responsi
ble. Attempt not to transfer your proper
occupation to a favorite maid, however tried
may be her fidelity and skill. To confide
implicitly in servants is the way to render
them undeserving of confidence. If they
be already negligent or dishonest, your re
missness encourages their faults, while it
continues your own loss and inconvenience.
If their integrity be unsullied, they are ig
norant of the principles by which your ex
penses ought to be regulated; and will act
for you on other principles, which, if you
were apprised of them, you ought to disap
prove. They know not the amount of your
husband’s income, nor of his debts, nor of
his other incumbrances; nor, if they knew
all these things, could they judge what part
of his revenue may reasonably be expend
ed in the department with which they are
concerned. They will not reflect that small
degrees of waste and extravagance, when it
would be easy to guard against them, are
criminal; nor will they suspect the magni
tude of the sum to which small degrees of
waste and extravagance, frequently repeat
ed, will accumulate in the course of the
year. They will consider the credit of
vour character as intrusted to them ; and
will conceive that they uphold it by profu
sion. The larger your family is, the great
er will be the annual portion of your ex
penditure, which by these means will be
thrown away. And if your ample fortune
incline you to regard the sum as scarcely
worth the little trouble which would have
been required to prevent the loss, consider
the extent of good which it might have ac
complished had it been employed in feed
ing the hungry and clothing the naked. Be
regular in requiring, and punctual in exam
ining, your weekly accounts. Be frugal
without parsimony; save, that you may
distribute. Study the comfort of all under
your roof, even of the humblest inhabitant
of the kitchen. Pinch not the inferior part
of the family to provide against the cost of
of a day of splendor. Consider the welfare
of the servants of your own sex as particu
larly committed to you. Encourage them
in religion, and be active in furnishing them
with the means of instruction. Let their
number be fully adequate to the work
which they firve to perform; but let it not
be swelled, eitheir from a love of parade
or from blind indulgence, to an extent
.which is needless. In those ranks of life
where the mind is not accustomed to con
tinued reflection, idleness is a never-failing
source of folly and of vice. Forget not to
indulge them, at lit seasons, with visits to
their friends. Let not one tyrannize over
another. In hearing complaints, be patient;
in inquiring into faults, be candid; in re
proving, be temperate and unruffled. Let
not your kindness to the meritorious ter
minate when they Jeave your house; but
age it in others, by subsequent acts of be
nevolence adapted go their circumstances.
Let it be your resolution, when called upon
to describe the characters of servants who
have quitted your family, to act conscien
tiously towards all the parties interested,
neither aggravating nor disgujsing the truth.
And never let any one of those whose qual
ifications are never to be mentioned, nor of
those who apply for the information, find
you seduced from your purpose by partial
ity or by resentment.
Though the act of managing a house may
seem at first sight a very simple affair,
there are. not many people who can do it
well. Some women do either too much or
too little; and husbands generally dislike
the worry' of over-management, almost as
much as neglect. The great art is to hit
the happy medium quietly. It is a great
point, also, to live always in the same man
ner as regards style, and to have the cloth
laid as carefully when alone as when there
is company. When this is the case, no
wife feels afraid of her husband bringing in
an unexpected guest; and it is gratifying
to a husband to find a friend of this kind
received quietly, whereas nothing can be
more disagreeable to a husband than to see
his home thrown into confusion, his wife
cross, and his servants scrambling to change
the things laid on the table; ami, in short,
everything going wrong, simply because he
has asked a friend to dine without giving a
day or two's notice of his intention to do so.
By judicious management a wife can al ways
contrive to have everything ready at the
proper time and place.
A WISE REBUKE.
The following anecdote is related of the
late excellent Joseph John Gurney' of Earl
hom. by one of his family circle:
One night, 1 remember it well, 1 received
a severe lesson on the sin of evil speaking.
Severe I thought it then, and my heart rose
in childish anger against him who gave it ;
but I had not lived long enough in this
world to know how much mischief a child’s
thoughtless talk may do, and how often it
happens that talkers run off the straight
line of truth. S did not stand very-
high in my esteem, and 1 was about to speak
further of her failings of temper. In a few
moments tny eye caught a look of such
calm an I steady displeasure that 1 stopped
short. Chore was no mistaking the mean
ing ot that dark, speaking eye. It brought
the color to my face, and confusion and
shame to my heart. I was silent for a tew
m ’men’.s. when Joseph John Gurnov asked
very gravely ;
Post thou know any good thing to tel!
us of her ? ”
I did not answer, and the question was
most seriously asked :
•‘Think, is there nothing good thou canst
tell us of her ? ”
“Oh, yes, 1 know some good things.”
“ Would it not have been better, then, to
relate those good things, than to have told
us that which would have lowered her in
a® b ®a. »» ss ® ba. ar jg ».
tour estimation? Since there is good to re
late, would it not be kinder to be silent on
the evil ? for charity rejoiceth not in ini
quity.”
The Mother.—lt has been said The
first being that rushes to the recollection of
a soldier or sailor, in his heart s difficulty,
is his mother. She clings to his memory
and his affection, in the midst of all the for
getfulness and hardihood induced by a ro
ving life. The last word he leaves is tor
her, his last whisper breathes her name.
' She may drop into the grave, but she has
left behind her influences that will work for
her. The bow is broken, but the arrow is
sped and will do its office.
THE CHILDREN’S COLUMN.
’ A WORD TO LITTLE ONES AT HOME.
“Oh! do not be discouraged,
For Jesus is your friend.”
This is one of the many beautiful songs I
have heard Sabbath-school children sing.—
Perhaps you have all heard it—l know that
many of you have sung it.
1 heard, not long since, of a gentleman
who had been to the Sabbath-school, and
when he returned home at noon, he sat
down in his chair, and was looking very
sad and discouraged. He was a Sabbath
school teacher, and had begun to think that
he should never see any good results from
his efforts to teach others, and this troubled
him much.
Just then his little girl passed through
the room, singing in a clear, merry voice—
“ Oh! do not be discouraged,
For Jesus is your friend.”
In a moment his face lighted up —all sad
ness was gone, and he was happy again.—
What made this great change—all so sud
denly too? Just these four words— “ Jesus
is your friend." Oh, yes’ he thought, Jesus
is iny friend, and He will help me. 1 can
never fail while His grace is promised.—
Thus was the father’s heart cheered by a
simple. Sabbath-school song.
Children, is this same Jesus your friend?
Have you given Him your hearts—do you
love and trust Him? If so, you are truly
happy. Nothing can harm you, for lie
will take care of you. lie is the great
Shepherd, and little children who love Him
are His lambs, whom He delights to watch
over and keep from all evil. When you
are sick, He can make you well; when in
trouble, He can cheer and comfort you;
when you have no earthly friends, He can
always be near, for He is everywhere.—
And above all, when you come to die, He
can take away all fear, and after death can
raise you up to heaven, that happy home,
to live forever with Him. How maliy
children will begin to seek Him now, that
they may ba His when He gathers all His
lambs to His bosom ?
THE FIRST OATH.
A little boy came in from school the oth
er day. looking_yert- unhappy. Was he
hurt? No. Had the boys plagued him ?
No. Had he been in mischief? No. —
What was the matter with Willie? He
hardly spoke at supper time, and ate very
' little. His mother went up to b<l with
him, and she asked again, “ \\ illie, what
’ ails you, dear?” “Mother,” said he—
“mother, 1 swore. The minute I spoke it,
• I was afraid of God, and ran home. Moth
i er, if I could only wipe those wicked words
out of my mouth—if I only could. Moth
er, will God forgive me, ever forgive me,
for taking His holy name in vain ? Pray
; for me, mother,” and Willie sank upon his
1 knees and hid his face. His mother did
. pray for him, and Willie did pray for him
J self—prayed to be forgiven—prayed that
I he might never, never profane the name of
’ God again. “ I’d rather be dumb all of my
life long,” said Willie, “than to be a
swearer.
The next day he asked his mother to
write down all the Bible said about profane
swearing; he wanted the Word of God on
the subject: he said he wanted to study it,
and stick it on his mind, amj carry it about
with him everywhere; so she found and
copied these texts :
“Thou shalt not take the name of the
Lord thy* God in vain, for the Lord will
J not hold him guiltless who taketh his name
in vain.”—Ex. xx : 8. This is the third
’ commandment.
“Ye shall not swear by my name false
ly, neither shalt thou profane the name of
J thy God; 1 am the Lord.”—Lev. xix : I*2.
“ Because of swearing the land mourn
eth : the pleasant places of the wilderness
’are dried up.”—Jer. x.xiii: 10.
“ I say unto you, swear not at all; nei
ther by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor
“ by the earth, for it is his footstool ; neither
by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great
King; neither shalt thou swear by the head,
because thou canst not make one hair white
or black. But let your communication be
( yea, yea; nay, nay ; fi r whatsoever is more
than these cometh of evil.” These arc the
Lord Jesus’ words in Matthew v : 34 —37.
“Above all things, my brethren,” says
James, “ swear moZ, neither by the earth,
neither by any other oath ; but let your yea
be yea, and your nay, .lay ; lest you fall
into condemnation.”—James v: I*2.
“Oh! mother,’’ said Willie, in reading
them over, “ how clear God speaks ! How
can a man or boy dare to swear, after read
ing this! ”
He learned these Scriptures, and I have
written them down for every boy who
pleases to learn them also.
Whom Su kll I Ask ?—“ Are you a good
boy, Andrew? I his question was put
by a Sunday-school teacher to a lad, when
he first came to school. “I am willing you
j should inquire, sir.” replied the bov.
“ Whom shall 1 ask?” said the teacher—-
“ My mother,” replied Andrew. It is a good
sign when a boy can thus refer to his moth
er tor his character. Some children can
read and write very well, and repeat a great
. many verses of the Bible, and be verv punc-
tual and regular at Sunday-school, and be
always reading good books; and yet, when
we ask about them at home, or at the day
school, we find they are careless, cross-, dis
obedient and selfish. A child may say and
do many very good things, and still be very
wicked and unhappy.
