SUIT AGAINST CAPTAIN HENDRIoKs FOE FALSE

No effort has been made to collect the fine, but
q suit bas been entered against Captain Hen

A Lesson for Well-DIsposed Wives

"Why is it," asked lady, that $50 many
men are anxious to get rid of their wives 2"
Because" was the reply, $50 few women
exert themselves after marriage to make
their presence indispensable to the happiness
of their husbands" When husband and
wife become thoroughly accustomed to each
other-when all the little battery of charms
which both play so skillfully before the we'd
ding day has been exhausted-too many
seem to think that nothing remains but the
clanking Of the legal chains which binds them
to each other The wife seeks to develop
in her affection no new attraction for her
husband, and the latter, preceiving the
zapsus, begins to brood over and uncongeni-
atty which does not exist into indispensable
obstacles, in the way of his earthly felicity.
This is the true secret. The woman who
charmed before marriage can charm after
wards-if she will, though not, of course by
the same means. There are thousand
ways, if she will only study them out, in
which she can make homo so attractive that
her husband will unconsciously dislike to be
absent himself from it, and so she can readi-
ly make herself the particular deity of the
domestic paradise. This done, she may
quietly laugh at all attempts to ALLEVIATE he1
husbands inclinations, and with these incl.
nations, will always 60, in such cases, his
active judgment.

Ruskin on Judas.

John Ruskin, in the Grown Of Wild
| Olives, characterizes in his trenchant style
those who like to make money as imitators
of Judas:
We do great injustice to Iscariot in think
ing him wicked above all wickedness. tie
is only a common money lover, and IKE all
money lovers, did not understand Christ
could not make out the worth OF him or
meaning of him. He didn't want him to be
killed. He was horror-struck when he found
that Christ would be killed threw his mon
ey away instantly and hanged himself
How many of our present money seekers,
think you, would have grace to hang them
selves, whenever they killed !? But Judas was
common, selfish, middle headed, pllferlng
fellow; his hand always in the bag OF the
poor, not caring for them. He didn't I'M
derstand Christ, yet he believed IN hun
much more than most Of us do, had seen him
do miracles, thought he was strong enough
to shift for himself, and he (Judas) might
as well make his own by perquisites out Of
the affair. Christ would come out Of it we'll
enough, and he have thirty pieces. Now
that is the money seekers idea all over the
world. He doesn't hate Christ, but can't
understand him; he doesn't care for him
sees no good in that benevolent business, but
takes his own little job of it, at all events,
come what will And thus out Of every
class Of men you have certain number OF
bagmen-your free first" men, whose main
object is to make money and they do make
it, make it in all sorts of unfair ways, chief
ly by the weight and force of money ITSELF
or what is called the power Of capital; that
is to say, the power which money once OBJ
tanned has over the labor of the poor, so that
the capitalist can take all his produce to him
self except the laborer's feed. That's mod
ern Judas way of carrying the bags" and
clearing what is put in them"

BY LADY GAY.
How shrink from contact with impolite
people. How dread the ordeal that must
be passed whenever meet them. What
delight they seem to take in finding out the
cost of each portion Of your dress, where you
bought it &c. Not satisfied with this, they
will comment upon your appearance. declare
you look so thin'-that your complexion is
50 sallow,' and I have actually known per-
sons to ask How old are you
If you stay at home attending to your own
affairs impolite people wonder you are SO
queer and unsociable.' If you go abroad
they wonder, still more, why you are 'eter-
nally on the PAD
Men are almost invariably impolite to their
wives. They act as if they think that by
marring the creatures of their choice, they
have conferred an obligation that nothing
can cancel.
They monopolize the fire in cold weather !;
and will neither move, to one side or the
other. They always read the daily paper
first, and nine times out Of ten when their
wives ask question they will not deign to
reply. What's the use Its nobody but her,
and if she ventures to complain of fatigue or
feeling nervous he either does not hear, or
flies into passion because she is not uni
versally cheerful and pleasant, and perhaps
to end the matter hirts out of the room,
slamming the door imperiously and furiously.
Havn't [ laid down my knife and fork at the
table before now just to look at impolite
people, and have actually seen the head of
the house, help himself to the dish before
him and gulp down the dainty morsel, SEEM
ingly unconscious that others were waiting
to be attended to- How such folks craunch
their food-swill down their coffee as if they
knew eternity was staring them in the face,
and it was the last swallow they ever ex-
pect to take this side of Jordan Eating,
with them, is matter of life and death.
I am no stickler for conventionalties, but

FUNe1.-Millions of esculent fungi, al
most as nutritious as meat, rot because peo-
pie are reluctant to eat them With work
on fungus eating, publisheda few years ago
by Mr.. Worthington Smith, any one might
60 fearlessly into the woods and fields and
choose his dinner. There is fungus, just
like rumpsteak in flavor, which, abounds
on oak trees there is the puff-ball, favored
like sweetread, and the hydna, which re-
minds of oysters and the agaricus deli
ciosuc, tasting like lamb kidneys. There
are many others-a catalogue as long as
Homer's catalogue of the Snipes-which no.
body deigns to touch. A large number OF
them would be valuable to the epioure for
their novel and delicious favors and they
would be welcome to the poor mans table II
he were once taught their use. Some Of
them, if a man eats them with his eyes shut,
are undistinguishable from meat.

COMPUTING INTEREST. give new
rule for computing interest, and it is so sim.
pie that every banker, broker, merchant, OF
clerk, should post it up for reference. There
being no such thing as fraction in it,
there is scarcely any liability to error or
mistake. By no other arithmetical process
can the desired information be obtained by
so few figures:
Sic Per Cent.-Multiply any given num-
Der of dollars by the number Of days of in
tercst desired, and divide by sixty, the re-
suit is the true interest on such sum for such
number of days at six per cent.
Eight Per Cent-Multiply any given
amount by the number of days upon which
it is desired to ascertain The interest, and d.
vide by forty-fve, and the result will be the
interest of such for the time required at
eight per cent.
Ten Per Cent.-Multiply the same as
above and divide by thirty-six, and the re-
suit will show the rate of interest at ten per
cent.

To Young Ladies.

An Exchange gives the following excel
lent advice to young ladies, who wish to be
happy and contented after the marriage GER
emony and honeymoon are over. 1t says:
Do not choose a lazy man; do not fall in
love with a mustache, neither fashionably
cut trowsers, or blackened boots, or pomaded
and artifcially curled hair; neither look
upon graceful dancing or horseback riding.
No, indeed for, with all the above-mention-
ed qualities of now a-days fast young men,
you would not be able, with the best culinary
skill, to cook meal of victuals with it.
But if a man comes to ask you for your
heart and hand, inquire if he is a skillful
artisan. or thrifty, Industrious farmer who is
up early and late, and does his own work,
and loves to do it, rather than to complain
Of hard times; Or if he understands to
manage his fortune if he has one, or has the
agility to acquire one ask him if he thinks
there are six days in the week to work, and
if he improves them, and then on Sunday te
rest, to praise the Lord, and go to meeting
If so, you cal love him. and take him
he is sure to provide for you.
But if be is one of those who loaf abou
half, and more than half of the time, dressed
in fashionably cut garments, afraid to work
for fear of soiling his clothes, always thirsty
and has abolished the sixth commandment
seven times, let him stand in the cold, ane
give him the mitten, for with such loung
ing, good-for-nothing dandy you would be
unhappy as long as you live
If all the young ladies at once join soci
ETY. and determine never to marry lazy
hippant, d-for-nothing do nothing, tn,
effect would be marvellous, and create won
ders, for the young men on matrimonial
business would soon see the secret, and g
to work, earnestly and honestly, and en-
deavor to be sober and industrious in ordel
to get them wife of their wishes the Who'll,
army of the loungers and street-corner
watching gentry would disappear from The
earth like frogs in winter. The recipe is bit
ter and severe, but it will undoubtedly cure

The WoR1D.-Ah, this beautiful world
I know not what to think of it. Sometimes
it is all sunshine and gladness, and heaven
itself lies not far off, and then it suddenly
changes, and it is dark and sorrowful, and
the clouds shut out the day. In the lives
of the saddest of us there are bright days like
this, when we feel as if we could take the
great world into our arms. Then gloomy
hours when the fire will not burn on our
hearths and all without and within is dismal,
cold and dark. Believe me, every heart
has secret sorrows, which the world knows
not, and oftimes we call man cold when he
is only sad.

Poetry.
NOVEMBER.t

NOVEMBER
Upon the brown and far-off hills
The haze lies soft and blue,
While nuts are dropping thick and fast
Whore summer wild flowers grew.
The NAPLES gold and crimson leaves
Like blood-stained banners CLEAN,
And purple asterS Ope their bloom
Beside each purple stream.
The woods like some grand temple stand
Beneath the glowing skies,
While down the long, dim a1sles the haze
Like slumbering incense lies
No organs deep majestic notes
Come pealins on the air
No choral strain triumphant hoats
Along those arches fair.
No voice is heard-no sound, save but
The brooklet's rip'ling flow.
Or whistling quail in covert thick,
Where scarlet berries grow.
Perchance some frightened rabbits tread
May wake an echo there,
Or drowsy hum of honey-bee
Fall on the dreamy air.
The sunf1ower and the golden rod
Their gaudy hues unfold,
And seem as if some Midas touch
Had changed them into gold.
The grapes in purple clusters hang
Upon the clinging vine;
And in the orchard, mid the leaves,
The ruby apples shine.
But through the forest, DER the hills,
A voice comes whispering low
It murmurs of the wintry winds
And of the falling snow.
The crimsoned leaves to earth must fail,
And breezes DER them sigh,
Oh! sad it seems that aught SO fair
Should ever fade or die.
Weread on every falling leaf
This lesson most sublime;
That resurrection's holy power
Shall triumph over time.
For though the summer flowers must fade,
The spring with sun and rain
Shall call them from the hill and vale
To bud and bloom again.

GoD's METHOD OF HELp.-God did not
take up the three Hebrews out of the fur
mace of fire, but he came down and walked
with them in it. He did not remove Daniel
from the den oflions; he sent his angel to
close the mouths of the beasts. He did not,
in answer to the prayer Of Paul, remove the
thorn in the flesh, but he gave him suAi-
cheney of grace to sustain him.

The ruin of some men dates from vacant
hour. Occupation is the armor of the soul,
There is satirical poem in which the devil
is represented as fishing for men, and fitting
his bait to the taste and business of his prey,
but the idler, he said, gave him no trouble,
as he bit at the naked hook.
