An Item every Man oul 4 Read ?

We have probably all of Us met with in
stances. in which a word hcedlessly spoken
against the reputation of female has been
magnifed by malicious minds until the cloud
has become dark enough to overshadow her
whole existence. TO those who are accus-
tomed-not necessarily from bad motives, but
from thoughtlessness--to speak lightly of fe-
males, we recommend the following "hints"
as worthy of consideration
t'Never use lady's name in an improper
place, at an improper time, or IN mixed com
pany. Never make assertions about her that
feel che herself would blush to hear. When
you meet with nfsn who do not .scruple to
make use Of womans name in reckless
and unprincipled manner, shun them, for they
are the very worst members of community
men lost to every sense of honor, every feel-
ing of humanity. Many good and worthy
young 1ady's character has been forever ruin
ed and her heart broken by a lie, manufactur-
ed by some villain, and repeated where it
should not have been, aud int presence of
those whose little judgment could not deter
them from circulating the foul and Dragging
| report A slander is soon prcpogated, and
the smallest thing derogatery to a womans
character will ay on the wings of the wind,
and magnify as it circuiates until its enormous
| weight crushes the poor and unconscious VIC
tim. Respect the nan of woman, for your
mothers and sisters are women and as you
would have their fair name untarnished, and
their lives pnembittered by the slanderer's
bitter tongue-heed the i'll that your OWL
words may bring upon the mother, the sister
or the wife of some fellow creature"

Some years ago, an old sign painter, who
was very gruff and lite deaf, was engaged
to paint the Ten Commandments on some ta-
bles in church, not FIVE miles from Buffalo.
He worked two days at it, and at the end of
the second day the pastor of the church came
to see how the work progressed. The old
man stood by, smokinga a short pipe, as tie
reverend gentleman ran his eyes over the ta-
blets.

detected something wrong in the working of
the precepts. "Why, you careless old per-
