Hi* appearance at home, after aehool, was alwayi the b^jimdag of disordiBfi, or tiie ai^ nal for troable.

That Edward made himself the distorber ef the household. As we have said he was a great trial to his poor mother, whose health was feeble, and who, in order to keep her children aroond her, \olled daily beyond her strisngth. One afternoon Edward came dashing into the hoose, in his usual boisterous maoner, slamming the door behind him with loud jar rattling and stamping np the stairs with a noise that resembled more the ;tnunpllog •f a horse than anything else. At the land- mg above, he met his brother Harry, whom he sainted with a pinch on the ear, and set tiie little fellow to screaming viol^tly. As he entered the aittcng-room he deliberately kicked over a house which Charley had just built with patient ingenuity out of some blocks which had been given to 1^ and, siezing Anna's doll, he threw it roughly to the top of a dothes press. The consequence was, that all three chil. dren were set to crying. ' Edward I" A feeble voice called to tiie lad from the adjoining room. It was the voice of his mother. Knowing that he would be reproved for his conduct, Edward did not ob^ the call, tnd waited for it to be repeated three or four times before answering his mother. " What do yon want " came then, rude- ly and nndutifuUy, from his lips. " I want yon " There was something un- Bsual in the tone of Mrs. Martin's voice. I^ was not angry nor reproving, bnt low and- 7ery sad. Edward felt, instantly, sorry for what he had done, and spoke a few soothing words to hisbrothers and sister, though with little sfiiact. Then he went into his mother's chamber. He found her lying upon her bed, and looking very pcdeand troubled. " The children were quiet and happy un- til you came in, Edward. " ' There was, to the ear of the boy, astil^ deeper sadness in his mother's voice. He did not attempt to excuse himself, for he felt Oaihehad done wrongâ€" but stood silent* with his eyes upon the floor. •' Edwara," resumed Mrs. Martin, ' it is act very long that I have to stay with you. When I am dead, yon will remember the palw you gave yonr mother, and this will be sad' recolection. The mother's voioe trembled; then she Imrat into tears and hid her face in the pil- low. Edirard's feelings were touched. He atood, for a few moments, near his mother, and then siowly moved away. He felt sorry Ux what he had done. Pauing through the adjoinidg room, he wont np to the garret, where he slept, and with a ugh laid him- self across his bed. He seemed to have been lying there only a few minutes, when he was surprised by the entrance of a strangen who said to him, abruptly «• Your mother is dead I" Starting up, Edward ran down-stairs, where he met a crowd of persons going into the chamber he had just left. He followed. One glance at the pale, death-stricken hce of his mother suffioen. Uttering a «y of grief, the nnhamiy boy Orew himself beaide the lifeless form of his farent. Oh what a crowd of rebnking memories now thronged through his mind' Svery unkind aot and word eame np before him, and they filled his heart with unutter- able, yet unavailing grief. She who had so loved him and so suffered through his on- Undneaa, had paased away. He wonld see hsr no moreâ€" wonld never again hear her loving voice. What would he not then nave l^ven %o be able to recall the past? ' Oh my mother my mother " he cried. ** Come back come back to me I will â- ever grieve yon again " Suddenly there was a change. Alight •eemed to break around hun. He started â- p and found himself in lus garret room, with tiie last rays os the setting sun look- ing in up jn him. " Was it only a dream I" he muxmnied, aa his panting breast rose and fell and he gazed donbtingly around him. "Was It «nly a dream or is my mother really dead?" Not until he had hnrtied down to his mother's room and looked upon her li^ng face, was Edward fnJy satisfied ttwfe he had been aakep. She lay in a qnisffe shm- ber; but there were tean npoa htt pale dieeks.

Steadily, wit|i his eyes looking! str^hti before him (he had peculiarly glistenhag black eyes), he pressed on, when jOirongh the gloom he saw a bright light which he knew was his home, and the tigers only left him when almost at his door. His wife opened the door, and he walked past her and sat down without a word, and so changed was his face with the dreadfol hour's terror that his wife did not know him. It was two hours before he was able to utter a word. Terror had paralyzed his speech, and he had kept on walking me- chanically. He was never the same man in health after that. ••"She iiaa eiltttrh' so batt it is linpleu- ant to benear her. She has triad si desNi thiogVjfind nothiifg beip^ her.

Pens and Ink out of reach avoid many a bieach. Look after your wife; never mind yourself, she'll look after yon. The present Is the child of the past and the parent of the future. The want of money is the root of much evil. Egotism is an al- phabet with one letter. If yon'd know a man's character, follow him home. Better a line of sense than a page of nonsense. The surest road to honor Is to deserve It. Only whisper scandal and its echo is heard by aU. Ifs not the clock with the loudest tick that goes the best Sighs are poor thfaigs to fly witiL Home Is the rainbow of lie. Don't complain of the baker until yon have tasted his bread.
