els SHE ENcAGEDi" is a question
not unfrequently mooted touching in
teresting young ladies. It's pity some
generally received sign. bearing upon
the question, could not be adopted by
the sex. II would satisfy very natu-
raj curiosity, and might not be to the
disadvantage Of the ladies. In dis
seniing Chapel in England. foreigner
noticed the ladies' bows on their bon
nets oddly arranged. some on the left
and others on the right side. while
others were directly in front. II was
found, on enquiry, that married ladies'
had the bow on the right side, young
maidens on the lefi, and those ZEN
gagged" wore them on the trent Of their
bonnets. A manifestation of this kind
would save much needless solicitude
and ANXIOUS enquiry among those gen.
tlemea who are candidates for matsi-
mony - Northampton Covy.

Don't1s disrorrcgsS, IL in the out !

ly. II seldom happens that the hopes
that we cherish for the future. are real
ized. The path Of life, in the proc
pect. appear smooth and level enough,
but when we come 10 travel il. we
find it all uphill. and generally rough
enough. The journey Is q laborieus
one, and whether poor or wealthy,
high or low. We shall find il SO 10 our

any other calculation. To endure IL
with a. much cheerfulness rs possible,
and 10 elbow our way through the

striving. much" is perhaps the true
plan. But
Dost BE- discouraged If occasionally
you slip down on the way, and your
neighbor treads over you little; or,
in other words, don't let failure dis
hearten you--acciden:s will happen;
miscalculations will sometimes be
made; things will turn out differently
from our expectations. and we may be
sufferers. II is worth while TO remem-
Der that fortune is like The skies in

rally feel sore under such deceptions;
but TO these you must become used; II
you fare Is most people do, they will

grey. and you will learn TO trust men
cautiously and examine the character
closely before you allow them great OPP

Don't be Discouraged under any cir

Rather consult your own conscience
than the opinions Of men. though the
