The ART OF FINANc1ER1NG-A singular
financial transaction occurred in one Of the
dock Offices day Or two since By some
means or other it happened that the Office boy
owed one of the clerks three cents, the clerk
owed the cashier two cents, and the cashier
owed the Office boy two cents. One day last
week the Office boy having a cent in his
pocket concluded to diminish his debt, and
therefore handed the nickle over to the clerk,
who, in turn, paid half Of his debt by giving
the coin to the cashier The latter handed
the cent back to the Office boy remarking,
''now | only owe you one cent" The Office
boy again passed the cent to the clerk who
passed it to the cashier, who passed it back
to the Office boy, and the latter individual
squared all accounts, paying it to the clerk,
thereby discharging his entire debt. Thus
it may be seen how great is the benefit to be
derived from single cent if only expended
judiciously.

Servant Girls.

Ladies who have been troubled by having
bad servant girls may be Interested in the
following passage from an article furnished
by one OF their sex to the N. Y Evening
Mail:
Can you fancy yourself in foreign land
away from kindred. ministcring only to the
physical wants Of strangers, for sum that
keeps you simply in a decent garb Of Sun
day, and lays up a trihe against rainy day,
but with the same tread mill Of hopeless,
every day life =? Would you think it too
much, then to hear a friendly word now and
again from a CHEEKY mistress; to have fire.
quent inquiries as to your home and friends;
to have an illustrated paper offered to you
occasionally to brighten your life and give
you some notions OF the outside world. And,
granting your religious faith differed from
that Of your employer, would it tend to make
you more bigoted or more liberal if she
should occasionally tell you what was doing
in your own church, without any accompa
nying comment, leaving the truth to work
itself out, but showing you that she was in
terested in all progress. All, dear ladies,
believe us-for we have proven it-you risk
nothing in these kind ofices-you gain eve
rything. Your grace and tact preserve
your station--have no fear on that point
You need no self-assertion for what should
be self-impressing Make for these girls
homes, and there will be less talk Of places.
Interest yourselves in them, make them feel
that you are their best, their wisest friend,
and you need not fear that they will desert
you for stranger. Do not expect them to
be perfect, for you can not find that in any
relation in life, but let them see that you
feel your relation to them to be one Of recip-
rocal duties, thai while they serve you con-
scieutious]y, you will use your intelligence,
your judgment, in their behalf, in thought
fu!ness Of their interest, both in their bust
ness and pleasure, their income and their
expenditure This can be done without in
reference. and will gather you rich har-
vest in the harmony aud unity of your
household. Try not to adapt yourself to
supposed peculiarities of nationality, treat
human nature humaneIy, and you will need
no special rules for government Of servants.

been more than realized, and the testimony
of thousands who have used it has been that
they would not be willing to so to bed ut night
without it in the house.
On the appearance of the cholera in this
city, such was tho confidence in tho Pain
Killer as a arcmcdy, that many who purchased
it remarked to me that they had no fears or
Pain Killer by them, and hundreds took it
daily as Il preventative, for no person can
have arrangement of the bowels or dar-

acquainted with it, and whom their friends
were attacked with the Cholera, they would
administer tho remedy in largo quantities,
and in every case when it has been taken in

not heard of any individual in any family who
used tho Pain Killer when attacked, but
speedily recovered.
The clerk informed mo that ho administer
cd it to persons when cold or in the cramps,
and it gave immediate relief, but still it
should be given quickly, for when the dis
charge OF rico water has begun, the hope
OF life has fled. Should this disease make it's
appearance among You, as in oil probability it
will, be not alarmed; you and ali others there
