Twp strings only surely you are 8 testing how could good music be produ- ced by such an instrument, when the piano has one or two hundred 2 zafa,ae.-h
 'Oh, the strings are very long, one about fourteen feet, and the uil,cr might be lengthrned at plensdre. to even fifty or more. '0'" '' ''-.~S "'J ~ 1 1.l" s' .7th tE

 SPRING.--Now is the time to dwell in imagination upon the beauties of Spring. Never does the thought of green leaves aud singing birds come to US burthened with so much solace and pleasure as when the branches are naked-wben the voice of ;he songster is no longer heard in the grove and the earth is white with snow. In autumn when the wood is beginning to fade, when the luxuriance of Summer is fading beneath the influence of frost, we can look forward only to the ice and snows of Winter-then bad begins and worse remains behind'- but at this season of the year our anticpa- tions are cheerful, for it is the present only which is not delightful. We have the con- solation of the Irish Sea Captain, who al- ways rejoiced when the wind was dead ahead, as the next alteration must be for the better.-P Pearl and Galo1v.
 How to save oil and candles.-Use sun- light two hours in the morning. and dis pense with candles and lamps two hours af- ter 9, P. M. The morning sunlight is much cheaper and better than evening lamp light. .......g.. '.-@
 HOs0 to s0ve expense in cIOthing.-Pur- chuse that which is at once decent, and the l most durable; and wear your garment des- pite the frequent changes of fashion, till it 1 becomes too defaced to appear decent then turn it and wear it hencef0rth as long as it protects the body. A blue coat is as warm after fashion requires green one, as it ever was. A red shawl in fashion to- day, is as comfortable as black one which fashion requires tomorrow. A few years hence your fame will not depend upon the style, color or quality of the broadclo,h you wear in 1887.
 How to save time.-Have place for every thing, and when you have done using it, return it to its place. This will save much time in hunting after articles which are thrown carelessly aside and lie you know not where. Ha .#
 Ho,O to save expenses in travelling.- Cultivate the bump of iubabi,veness; and if you want to go mile or two, walk rather than hire an establishment at the livery stable. This will be for the health of your body, as we'll as a security of your purse from languishment.i a.aa at.@ af
 How to save in little matters.-Procure a book and keep an exact account of all your expenditures. At the expiration of three months, review the account and see how much you have expended in four pen- ny and nine penny items which you could have done without as well as not. Then see to it that each ensuing quarter shall be minus just those things. In many cases the aggregate would be found more con- siderable than you would be aware of, nn- less you kept such an account.
 HOw to save your property, J y0ur house should be consumed by fre.--Get insured. No one is entitled to much charity after he suffers loss, if he neglects SO easy method of securing himself
 How to save your family e subsistence, # you shouM be suddenly taken aOay.- Get your life insured, for such sum as would place them in comfortable circunl- stances after your decease.-Banner.
 INDEPENDENCE OF THE PRESS.
 Nothing is more common than to hear the press denounced as wanting in inde- -pendence, because it will not consent to take ground al once and without discretion, upon every public topic, and a>sun'c To lead aud control every public opinion upon cv- cry question, however delicate or deeply | involving the rights of indi.id"als. This denuncation is founded upon rsronrnus view both of the responsibilities a,,d inc !
