FLIRTs AND CooUETTEs.-Th record of
Hymen's Court shows that the bewhskered
and scented dandy who toys with honest
womens hearts as if they were only play
things with which to amuse himself for the
passing hour, is almost invariably caught
by some one as thoughtless and heartless as
he, and the sentence of the outraged Cupid
is as plainly read $50 long as thou livest
together thy days shall be spent in misery"
And the fate of the artful coquette, as read
in the same book shows that she has de-
ceived honest and sensible men until that
class entirely forsake her, and she, from sheer
necessity is compelled to take up with fool
or knave. The sequel to the lives of both
is recorded in the books of the civil courts

81 am very sorry" said learned Judge
to a young woman, who hesitated much in
giving some very unpleasant evidence, 81
am sorry to have to enforce such an expla-
nation as this, it must of course, be very
painful to any decent person, but the ends
of justice require it; and not only so, but
all the well dressed females you see on each
side of me, have come long way to hear
that which pains you so much to utter"

A certain man who is very rich now, was
very poor when he was boy. When asked
how he got his riches, he replied "My
father taught me never to spend my money
till had earned it. If had but an hour
work in day, 1 must do that the first
thing, and in an hour And after this was
allowed to play; and then l could play with
much more pleasure than if 1 had the
thought of an unfinished task before my
mind. I easily formed the habit of doing
everything in time, and it soon became easy
to do so. 1t is to this owe my prosperity"
Let every one who reads this do likewise.

Is IT NOT so o?-There are thousands of
almost penniless and disappointed men,
picking up a precarious living at the ex-
tremity of life because they have, in the
course of their existence, tried over a hun
dred different things, and abandoned all in
turn, because success was not instantaneous.
To few men only it is given to do more
than one or two things. There is scarcely
any pursuit that if followed out with single
ness of purpose will not yield rich return.

WHITE WOMEN WoRK FOR SEVEN CENTS
PER DAY.-At meeting Of the working
women lately held in New York, Mrs. Ann
s. Stephens read the following:
ga coarse flannel army shirt, large size,
made by hand sewing. Collar, wristbands
and gussets, put on with double rows Of
stitching all round. The seams all felled
three button holes, buttons and stays, re.
quiring upwards of two thousand stitches
The woman who made this garment was
sixty years of age, and too deaf to go to the
store for orders. She has worked on these
shirts since the war broke out, receiving
seven cents each-one of them being a
good days work for her Younger women
might make two or perhaps three Of them
in twelve hours, furnishing their own thread
This old lady occupied, with another woman,
damp, dark basement, where she strained
her eyes in the daytime, and sewed by the
light of her neighbor's light in the evening
At the end of the week her net earnings af-
ter paying for needles and thread, amounted
to thirty-nine cents in currency"
