DON'T be q Bachelor.

Young man, don't live crusty BACH
elor; it is not good for you. 1t will nei-
ther improve your health, morals nor
your beauty. Marry as soon as you can
make it convenient, and can shape your
affairs to support wife. But when you
marry don't fall in love with face in
stead of woman. Remember that COM
mon sense is rare virtue, much better
than silver, gold and fashion. Don't
court and marry criuolne and money
bags, simply because it is crinoline or
gold in plenty but look for sound, prac-
teal sense in woman first; that is the
touch stone to try her other qualities
by. .ha. afa...s.1f a.
When you have that, all else comes
Your wife, that is 10 be, if she's full Of
common sense, will grow to your way of
thinking and make you grow to hers. A
woman who has woman'y love in her
heart, will find way to make your love
towards her grow as the years 60 over
you both. And another thing peeds to be
needed, and that is--a common sense
woman is not to be found where fashion
insists upon dragging young females into
q whirl, where there is simply gossip and
little brain.
Young man don't stand there looking
after that young woman who has the dis
tinguished air, the reputation of a firt
and belle, whose father has heaps OF
cash; for it is not impossible that while
you are straining your eyes, you may be
turning your back upon some unobtru-
sve little damsel whom nature has cut
out as your other half, and who may be
just that pleasant. faced, placid tempered,
loveable little creature who will think
enough of you to so with you to the end
Of the world. and stay by and comfort you
when you get ray'headed and fdg-
ely. H--. .rFr --.r.e ear#
Marry, young gentlemen, and keep
yourselves out of scrapes. Have somo-
thing to live for. A man alone in the
world isn't more than half a man, and
the world wants entire men. So mend
yourself, and be happy. And you shall
have reason TO say that it was good
thing you resolved to marry. and refused
to be a solitary, beer. drinking, pipe smo-
king bachelor, if you succeed as well in
your efforts as he who once young

An arkansas Fathers advice to his Son

An arkansas Fathers advice to his Son.
Bob, you are about leaving home for
strange parts. You're going to throw
me out of the game, and go it alone
The odds is agin you, Bob. but remember
always that industry and perseverance
are the cards that win. They are
the "bowers. Book learning and
all that sort of thing will do to fill up with
like small trumps. but you must have the
bowers to back 'em, else they ain t worth
shucks. If luck runs agin you pretty
strong, don't cave in and look like sick
chicken on rainy day, but hold your
head up and make believe you are flush
of trumps they won't play so hard agin
you. I've lived and travelled around
some Bob. and I've found out that as
soon as folks thought you held a weak
hand. they'd all buck agin you strong
So, when you're sorter weak. keep on a
bold front, but play cautious: be satisfied
with ap'iut. Many's the hand I've seen
ucred cause they played for too much.
Keep your eyes well skinned, Bob; don't
let 'em mig" on you recollect the
game lays as much with the head as with
the hands. Be temperate : never get
drunk, for then, no matter how gooa your
hand is, you won't know how 10 play both
bowers and the ace won't save you, for
there's sartin to be a "miss deal' or some
thing wrong. And another thing, Bob,
(this was said 10 very low tone, don't
go too much on the women; queens is a
kind poor cards; the more you have Of
'em the worse for you; you might have
three and nary trump. I don't say dis
card 'em all; ifyou set hold Of one that's
a trump, it's all good, and there's sartin
to be one out Of four. And above all,
Bob, be honest never take a mans
trick wot don't belong to you, nor slip"
cards, or mig, for then you cant look your
man in the face, and when that's the case
there's no fun in the game /; it's regular
'cut throat" So now, Bob, farewell.
remember wot I tell you, and you'll be
sure to win, and if you don't. sarves You
right If you get "skunked.".

"Our readers may have heard Of the
noted woman Gottfried who lived in Bre.
men quarter Of a century ago. She was
widow Of facinating appearance in her
youth beautiful; in more advanced life
still attractive by those preparatve and
decorative arts, Of which woman knows
so well how to avail herself. All connect :
ed with her sickened and died in strange
ways. Two husbands, her father and
mother, her brother and several children
disappeared in short period Of time. 1t
was her lot to order no less than thirteen
collins from the undertaken, who lived
opposite to her, and all for near and dear
friends. Gottfried faithfully nursed them
during their painful illness. She was an
object of pity and sympathy while she
seemed wonderfully resigned to the in
scrutable DEGREES of Providence. A per-
feet Niobe in her childless woe she appea-
red to be, and Niobe she was, for her
heart was as hard as that celebrated stat
ue. Received into good society her COM
pany was courted by persons of rank and
consideration. Twice widow she still
had suitors. She had a we'll furnished
house, an easy fortune. But still she
continued to drink of the cup of affection,
was still pittied and prayed for. A mod
ell of the tender affections, she loved in
tcnsely, but her love killed every object
on which it alighted. The venerated pa
rent, the manly husband AID the beauti-
full children withered and died. ......
A Mr.. Rumpff and his wife, though
dissuaded by his friends, took lodgings in
the same house with Madame Gottfried.
She was all kindness to them and theirs.
But Madame r. was seized with vomiting
and died under the assiduous nursing of
his disguised Al ecto. The children and
servants met the same fate, and received
the same attentions. She gave them all
their death potion and smoothed their dy.
ing pillow. Mr.. Rumpff himself was
seized; he ransacked the house from
garret to cellar to find the cause; be be-
lieved there was some decaying substance
some feted exhalation, like that Of the Ma
tional, which did all the mischief; he had
the boards lifted and the walls examined,
all in vain, but at length white powder
was observed on a bit Of meat, which
hab been left, and it proved to be arsenic.
Madame G. was arrested, imprisoned.
and though at first affecting great horror
at the idea Of being accused as murder
ess, finally confessed to all, and to much
more than she said she coul rememberl
She was sentenced to be beheaded and
that head preserved in spirits, and her
skeleton in case, may now be seen in
the museum at Bremen. Have we such
a murderer stealthily moving about in
the land, perhaps aiming at its highest
dignitaries?"

Marriage is to woman at once the
happiest and saddest event Of her life; it is

death Of present enjoyment. She quits

she has hitherto depended for comfort,
for affection, for kindness and for pleas.

The parents by whose advice she has
been guided--the sister 10 whom she has
dared to impart the very embryo thought
and feeling-the brother who has played
with her, by turns the counsellor and the
counselled, and the younger children to
whom she has hitherto been the mother
and the play -mate--all are to be forsahen
at one iell stroke--every former tie is
loosened--the spring Of every action is
changed; and she flies with joy in the
untrodden paths before her buoyed up
by the confidence Of requitted love. she
bids fond and grateful adieu to the life

and joyous anticipation to the happiness

and stays Of moral discipline, in which
she had been nurtured, and yet makes
no effort to supply their places; for on
him is the responsibilities Of her errors---
on him who first taught her to grow care
less of her duty by his example, and then
exposed her with a weakened spirit and
