A STORY FOR BUSINESS ME

|
Charles Gardner was a young mer
chant engaged in good business which
Welded him profitable returns. Being
EdAeidedly Of the opinion that "it is no
Il d for man to be alone," he married 6
dng lady, the daughter OF a country
clergyman, whom he would certainly have
passed over, had wealth been his object
But he thought, and wisely. that a cult
Vated mind and amiabla disposition, uni
ted as in the present case TO personal
charms. gave better promise oi happines;
than the largest portion.
Marian Watson had been well educa
ted in the best sense Of the term. While
due attention had been paid 10 the orna.
mental in her training, the useful bad moi
been neglected. She was accordingly
equally we'll fitted TO grace the drawing
room and TO superintend the operations
oi'the kitchen. and either position showed
herself perfectly at home.
Charles Gardner had been nursed in
opulence, and as a natural consequence
was rather carleSs in his expenditures
He thought it necessary to live in Ger,
tain style, and having no very clear idea
how much it required 10 support it. pla-
ced this matter entirely in the hands Of
others, and took no further thought about
it.
Having promised so much let US in
troduce the newly married couple to the
reader before the honeymoon had fairly
passed.
The breakfast.table with its inviting
accompaniment had received full share
pof attention, when Charles, pushing back
his chair. said with a smile: "Well, Ma.
rina. as we have got to be quite staid
married couple, comfortably settled down,
as the saying is. suppose we have little
expation about household expenses, &c.l
with all my heart" said his wife II
think oil such matters ought TO be con
Quoted with system. and brought within
fixed limits. That is the orly safe way.'
II have been thinking said Charles.
that il will be best TO set apart a certain
sum for household expenses, the supply oi
the table. and so forth. What do you say
to two hundred dollars per month 7"
Two hundred dollars a month";" said
Marian, who being accustomed 10 the
limited wendge Of country clergyman
with a small salary, viewed matters in
rather different light from her husband.
1.-Two hundred dollars a month merely
for the supply Of the tablet Hav'nt you
placed il rather too high, Charles 7"
"And do you really think it so very
much, my prudent little wife 7" said
Charles, smiling "You must remember
that our position requires US to live in 3
certain style, and that this cannot be sup
ported without money"
"That is true. Charles; but are you
very sure that your income will allow Of
such an expenditure :"
"Oh, certainly. my very careful Mari.
an. Business was never better, and |
don't expectto fall just yet"
'But Charles do you approve Of living
up TO ones incomel Isn't it best to save
something for a rainy dayi Business

oRreINALITY.-An acquaintance few
days since, told a good joke on old Bull

speaking, Oratory in general, etc. when,
referring to a certain eelebarted oration
of his, he said in that blunt manner pc.
cular to him, "you ought to have heard
that speech---it was a hell of speech
Such an expression is entirely character
istic of Benton. Mr.. Clay would have re.
marked: "Such and such speech was
spoken of as highly successful effort y
Calhoun wouldprobably have pronounced
