Women and Literature.

The literature of three centuries ago
is not decent to he read; we expnrgate
It. Within hundred years woman
has become reader; and for that rea.
son, as much or more than anything
else, literature has sprung to higher
level. No need now to expnrgate all
you read. Woman, too, is now an au-
thor ;.an,l' undertake to say, that the
literature of the next century will be
richer than the classic epochs for that
eanse. Truth is one, ere, absolute !;
but opinion is trnth filtered through
the moods, the bleoA, the disposition
of the spectator. Man has lo"ked at
creation and has given us his impression
in Greek literature, and in English one
siled, halfway, all away. Woman,
DOW takes her stand to give her views
of God $ words, and her own creation |;
and exactly in proportion, as woman,
though equal, is externally different from
man, just in that proportion will the
next century be doubly rich because
we shall have both sides.
You might as we'll plant yourself in
the desert nnder the chargeless gray
and blue, and assert that YOU have seen
ali the wonders of Gods pencil, as
maintain that a Male literature, Latin,
Greek, or ASiatic, can he anything but
a h:sif part. poor and one-siled rs well
develop all muscfe, shutting ont sun
shine and color, and starving rhe flesh
from your angular limbs, and then AL
advise Won to scorn Titian's flesh and
the Apelio, since Won fsstve exhausted
manly beauty, as think to stir alF depths
of music with only half the chords
The diapason of human thought was
never struck, till Christian culture sum
moned women into the republic of let
ters; and experience as well as nature
tells us +" what God hath joined, let ne
man asunder."- Wendell Philips.

WTE give notice to parties DESTROYS of investing
wv money at full rates of interest upon REAL
ESTATE SECURITIES-safe beyond all doubt or
question-that we are now prepared to make such
investments in sums of one to ten thousand dollars
on one to five years time.
Having business transactions and personal ac-
quaintance with parties to whom loans safely
be made at the highest rates allowed by law, in the
States of ILLINOIS, WISCONSIN and MICHIGAN, which
afford us oppo tunty to select the most desirable
investments we do not hesitate to say that
safely invest money interest at rates very sell
dom obtained. and always upon ample and un-
doubted security.
In making loans we always require the convey
ance taken to the money and interest, to be
the first incumbrance upon the property.
The property to be valued on a personal inspec-
tion at the lowest rate at which such property will
sell in the place where located, and if farmands,
the buildings not to be taken in the estimate.
The amount loaned not TO exceed one-half of the
value of the property SO estimated.
The conveyance, whether Trust Deed or Mort
gage, will be so drawn as to provide for sale of
fault be made in the payment of the interest which
will secure the prompt payment of the same.
Policies of Insurance will also be taken upon
the buildings at the expense of the borrower
Interest payable annually, and in some cases
semi-annually, upon the whole sum, and a cove
nant on the part of the borrower embodied in the
conveyance, that in case of sale or foreclosure,
the expense of the same to be paid from the
property, so that the lender in all shall OBJ
tain the full amount of the stipulated interest.
Ten per cent. interest," invariably will be guaran-
teed,- and, in some cases, higher rate can be
realized without violation of the interest laws.
The parties borrowing paying the expenses of
valuation of the property conveyed and COM
missions.
Having had many years experience in the
Western States in taking securities for the pay
ment of money, we believe mistakes impossible
therefore we give personal guarantee against all
mistakes in taking the security. 4
To parties desiring more detailed statement
of the advantages of investing money through our
agency or any Information in regard to the interest
or collection laws ofthe Western States, we will
give satisfactory references to parties In the At

There 10 thrilling joy In early dawn. Care va
drowned in slseplAst night Sorrow was prisone
BY night-shads.- Give " long life Of hapr
morning.
Wen live on earth.
And harmless mirth,-
Shall make usbeds of roses,
The lrchrymose,
Who hate the rose.
Nay whine through pinshed up noses,
We viii be gay,
And sing to-day,
Let grief not come, nor sorrow;
Then they'll grow old
And die, and cold
Enough will be, tomorrow
When buried deep
Then let 'em sleep.
They make the soil still stronger;
When grief's below
The roots viii grow,
The tree will last much longer.
Cast borrowed care
To empty air.
To seek its sister Sorrow
Then every day
wewiIr be gay.
And leave grief for to-morraw.
