IN TII 3 NEST

Oather them ciose to your loving heail— Cradle them close to your breast ; They will soon enough leave your brooding care, ■Soon enough mount youth's topmost stairLittle ones in the nest Fret not that the children's hearts are gay, Thattheir restless feet will run ; There may come a time in the by-and-by« When you'll sit in your lonely room and sigh For a sound of childish funWhen you'll long for a repetition sweet, That sounded through each room, Of ' mother i mother !' the dear love calls, That will echo long through the silent halls, And lighten their stately gloom. There may be a time when you'll long to hear •That eager boyish tread, The tuneless whistle, the clear, shrill shout, The busy bustle in and Out And pattering overhead. When the boys and girls are all grown up, • And scattered far and wide, Or gone to the undiscovered shore, Where youth and aged come never more, You will miss them from your side. Then gather them to your loving heart , Cradle them on your breast, They will soon enough leave your brooding care, Soon enough mount youth's topmost chair — Little ones in the nest.

A contemporary thus refers to the subject of bustle wearing : — " How much time do women lose itt the year by wearing bustles? An ingenious manager of a shirt factory in America, who has issued a mandate against tho weaving of bustles by his employes, justifies his draconianlaw ~by the following calculation :—": — " A girl will arrange her bustle five times a 1 day, occupying one minute's time whenever she •does so, and that makes a loss of five minutes. When there are twelve girls it means the loss of an hour. Then they will leave the shop five times more, which "takes five minutes each time. That tnnkes 25 minutes, or you might vsay, half-an-hour. Twelve girls each loosing half anhour, means a loss of six hours, added to the bustle hour, makes seven. This means n great deal of money when you are paying the girls by the week. Seven hours a day means 42 hours a week." Taking the bustle.wearing population as 1,000,000 only, the daily loss of time at this rate in London alone is equal to more than 50 .years." Some persons regard advertisements as mere matters of trading. But the curious fact remains that advertisements are often referred to as proofs of the long-established reputation of a business ; and it is a matter of pride to point back to an advertisement as the foundation of a career of prosperity.
