A umnn iionie amusements t'i' , st is the n'itl old habit of conversation, the talkinn over the event of the tl.y. in brinht and tjuick jday of wit and fancy, theston which bruins the l.iunh. and thespeakinn the nood anil kintl ami true thinns, which all have in their hearts. It is not so much by dwelling upon what members of the family have in common, as briuninn each totheolher soinethinn ititerestinn, and ani'isiun. that home life js to he made cheerful ami joous. Kachone mutdohis pari to make conversation nenial and happy. We are toj ieady to converse with newspapers and hooks, to seek some companion at the. stoie. hotel, or club room, and to fornet that home is any thing more than a place to sleep an. i eat in. The revival of conv, rsaiioii. the eiitertainmentof one another, jus a room full of people will entertain themselves, is on. secret of a happ home. When er it is wantinn, tlisease has struck into the root of the tree; there is a want which is i,i with incrensinir force as time noes on. Conversation, in -nunv eases, is just wind prevents many people from re lapsinn into utter selfishness at their firesides. Th's conversation should not simply occupy husband and wife and the older members of the family, but extend itself to the children. Pa rents should he cave full to talk with them, to enter into their life, to share their tritl-'s. to assist in their studies. 10 meet them in the thoughts and feelinns of their childhood. It is a nreat step in education, when around the evening lamp.are gathered thedifferent members of a family, sharinn their oceup-iiion with one another the older assistinn the vounner. each one contrihutinn to the entertainment of the other, and all feel inn that the eveninn had passed only too rapidly away. This is the truest and best amusement. It is the healthv absurd and exasperated.
