GETTING AND HOLDING MONEY

On this topic Of general concern, Cory
OLanus, the Brooklyn Eagle sage, dis
courses with his usual lucidity and clear
ness as follows:
Every man his own landlord, is a cap
ital doctrine.
81 should have adopted it myself lonl
years ago, but for want Of capital.
"This is the difficulty with most tenants
"All the real estate / own is located in
dozen flower pots, which Mrs. OLanus de
votes 10 the cultivation of geraniums yer
benas, cactuses and other ornamental vega
tables.
"The earth is a mans inheritance, but
have not come in for my share of it yet.
Some capitalist has got the title deed TO
my estate, and won't give them up till can
raised money enough TO redeem them.
"My father neglected TO leave me for
tune-a habit which runs in our family.
From present appearances, / think
shall hand il down 10 pOsterity.
"As Shakespeare observes, some men ar'
born poor, others acquire poverty, Others
have poverty thrust upon them.
"The OLanuses were always distinguished
for their ability TO spend all they could get
all my rich uncles died before they made
their fortunes.
Getting rich involves two questions.
First, get money.
Second, hold on 10 it.
81 understand the principle iirstrate.
"As soon as l can accomplish the first con
dition, ] am going 10 try my hand on the
second.
when ] got married, Mrs O'Lanus and
myself passed a joint resolution that We
would get rich Getting the furniture took
all cur capital in hand, but ! was to give
Mrs. OLanus all the money | got. She
was TO buy only what we wanted, and put
the rest in the saving bank.
"The first year we wanted more than We
could buy, and the bank account came out
without balance
"The next year my salary was increased
$50 was my family.
Likewise the expenses.
"Bank account same rs year before.
"Third year ditto.
1--WE continued TO accumulate at the same
rate for several years in succession.
Then the war broke out, and we con
cluded not TO put money in the bank for
the present. because things were then so UNI
certain.
'Since then living has been high, and
we have concluded TO postpone the accumu-
lation of fortune until the income tax is
abolished and groceries becomes reasonable

INHABITANTS OFTHE HUmANBoDY


What think ycu, reader Of your body
being planet inhabited by living races,
rs We inhabit the earth? Whatever may be
your thoughts on the subject the fact is even
so. Your body is but home for parasites,
that crawl over Its SURFACE, burrow beneath
lis skin, nestle in its entails, and riot and
propagate their kind in every corner of its
frame. The sensation in regard to trichiaG
in swine flesh, has set the scientific 10 knock
ing their heads together, and the results is
the following facts: PGTasites not only in
habit the bodies Of all animals used by us as
food, but they are also found in abundance
in our organization. The species hachind
spiratis, of which so much is said and whose
existence has been discovered in pork, is,
according TO our best anatomists, found ia
almost every muscle of the human body.
Ii lies all along the fbres OF the muscles, en-.
veloped in little cysts or sacs, about one
fourth ofan inch in length. II can be dis
tinctly seen and examined only by the use
Of the microscope.
An English authority says: at is a noto-
rious fact that numerous parasites do crawl
over our surface, burrow beneath our skin,
nestle in our entrails, and riot and propagate
their species in every corner of our frame
Nearly score Of animals belonging to the
interior Of the human body have already
been discovered and described and scarcely
a tissue or an organ but is occasionly pro-
famed by their inroads. Each also has its
special or favorite domicile. One species Of
stroRgie chooses the heart for its dwelling
place, another inhabits the arteries, third
the kidneys. Myriads Of minute worms lie
coiled up in the voluntary muscles, or in
che areolar tissue that connects the heshy
abres. The gaineG-l0orm and the Clique bore
through the skin and reside in the subjacent
reticular membrane. Hydtid8 invest various
parts Of the body, but especially the liver
and the brain.
A little fake, in general appearance much
like founder, lives stepped in gall in the
hillary vessels. If you squeeze from the
skin on your nose what is vulgarly called a
maggot-the contents, namely Of one Of the
hair follicles-it is ten TO one you will find
in that sebaceous cylinder several animal
cule, exhibiting under the microscope
curious complicated structure. Even the
eve has its living inmates With this know
ledge OF our composition, it matters but lit.
tie how many ertOz0d we consume, so long
as we do not see them, it is nothing more
than all ages have done before US. We
might with as much propriety refuse to
drink water, which however pure, is fairly
alive with animalcule as TO refrain from
the use Of meat because it exhibits (under
the MICROSCOPIC eRtozOd.

GENERAL SOFIA New York letter
says:
Already scandal is busy with his name
His family relations were not happy, bpt
dishonor never crossed his threshold. The
fair maiden Of Richmond, who nearly fifty
wears ago became his wife, died an exile
from his home, but not from his heart His
affection was not demonstrative. However
he may have loved his wife and children,
he rarely manifested it. In 1862 his wife
died at Rome. An arrangement had grown
up between them, and his irascible temper
was assigned as the cause. Since her death
this irascibility increased, and when his own
DAYS were closing he had become an exile
from affection He died in the presence of
a few military friends. There was but one
hand in which coursed drop of his own
fiery blood 10 press his brow As il grew cold
in death. In taking him from the world,

Poor FELLow.-The local editor of the

married, thus reioices over his change OF
state:
"No more arc we doomed TO roam in dark
attics, illuminated by the faint odor of stale
tobacco, and aporned by bachelor friends,
inebriated and miserable. No, sir; we are
now settled for life We begin to have an
interest in the markets; are curious over the
price of bcefsteak, are affected by a rise in
soup-bones and potatoes. A picture of life
dawns before us. We begin TO fancy our.
selves sixty or seventy years hence, white
headed and venerable, slowly pacing tc
church, leading by the hand an interesting
family Of six rascally white-headcd boys
infant Snookses-who look up TO us and call
us Dad" With such possible prospect
who wouldn't get married? And then the
joy of leading those six through the meazles,
whooping-cough, teething, rash, diptheria
and Group, buying them shoes, pounding
them when ugly, and trotting them on our
knee when they squall; seeing them come
home drowned from skating, and having
them brought home blown up by toy cannon

nestle bliss that we couldn't resist, and so
