Conversation.
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
