DISPLAY TASTE.

Farmers girls are expected to under
stand housekeeping, but sometimes a
hard barren life of toll bcgets in them a
disgust, which leads to extreme careless
ness and Indifference in the nicer parts
Of home duties.
Beware of this, | pray you. Study
grace and beauty in the folds of a eur
tain, the arrangement Of table, the
position OF a chair-thc amount of light
and shade to give the right effect to all.
Take the prettiest way of doing things,
Won will soon discover charm in toll,
and the effect on your natures will be
ennobling. Do not bcgrudge FIVE min
utes to trim dish with green leaves
upon the dinner table, not forgetting
to twist spray of flowers or leaves
amid the dark or gold of your hair
somebody's eyes will brighten to see it,
and, ere you are aware, you will become
"a tray to catch a sunbeam. - Country
Gentleman.

HOW A RETAINER WAsLOsT.

Bromley, of the Hartford Post, relates the following: 4a
 Next to getting retainer in cases pend- ing before the Legislature, it is perhaps important to remember which side you are retained for. One of the attorneys in the New Britian railroad case a.week or two ago, observing that New London gentle man who was s'doing little something in the lobby" had business which required him to spend day in the company of a member of the railroad committee, in the trial of case, said to the New London gentleman, s.You will be with Mr.- all day Monday, and will have an excellent opportunity to talk with him about the New Britian railroad case, and you may consider yourself retained in it." "All right" said the other. ''I will attend to it. |"
 The next Tuesday, when the New Lon don gentleman returned to New Haven, he was met by the railroad man with the inquiry: 8 asS ..
 .Did you spend the day with MT. -"
 s.WelI, what did ho say about our case?" s.assWell, he didn't seem inclined to talk about it very much.
 s'Do you suppose he's for us?" 'I-I-well- couldn' t quite make out. |" You don't think he's against us do you?" = . aN-n-o-I-I-d-o-n-t know as he is I couldn't get much out of him about it. !" a. "Well," said the railroad man, "you talked with him about it didn't you? You sounded him?''
 The New London man hesitated a mo- ment, stammered little, and then broke out into laugh. ''The fact is, said he, '1 didn't say anything to him about it. l opened the subject by asking hlm if the case was concluded and had got all ready to tackle him on the merits, when it oc- cured to me all at once that I didn't know which side of the case you were on, and of course couldn't tell which I was retained for; and thus it was"
 F t'Well, what did you do?'
 ''Do?" said Che New Londoner, "what could do? dropped the subject right there. But never mind," he added, s'I shan't charge you anything for the work I did"
 d This is the most remarkable case have yet heard of. Other members of the lobby are a good deal exercised over the New London mans violation of all precedents in making no charge for his services.

 To meet this demand we ask your attention to the statement below of the merits and attractions of the loan offered by the New Haven, Middletown and Willimantic Railroad Company.
 We recommend the bonds as possessing two valuable equ;sites-s'absolute safety and liberal

The Bonds can be obtained of any Bank or Bank will be received in Exchange, at their full market rate, and may be sent by express at our expense, the Bonds being returned free of charge.
 There can be no better seven per cent. bonds than those of the Air Line Railroad.-Ne,c York Dady Tribune.
 As the prospect of the opening of this new and direct route to Boston draws nearer the conf- dence of the public seems to increase in its advan- tages for business. x The high class of the security offered makes the loan more accepta- ble than some others bearing higher rate of in- terest but not presenting equal attractions in the way of safety.-N. r.

 It is seldom that bonds so intrinsically good are offered Tn the open market for investment.- WaH Street Journal.
 Every condition essential to the security of the bondholders has been complied with, and gives these bonds prominent place among the most desirable securities offered to the public.-N, r. ObSerUer.
 It is seldom bond is offered in the market which compares so nearly with and seems so ep- trely to take place of Governments, as the First Mortgage bonds of the New Haven, Midiletown. and Willimantic Railroad Company. We are not sur prised to learn that they are being rapidly taken for permanent investment by careful, prudent aIk1 iudicious capitalists.
