I Can't Make up MY Mind.

by AN UNFoRTUNA1E BACHELOR.
It's really very shocking, but
I'm now just forty-five,
And here am no married yet,
il TACT rs I'm alive.
And though there's lots of girls about,
And some to suit find,
/ don't know how 1t is, I'm sure
l can't make up my mind.
Miss Jones-she's too particular,
very plainly see,
And IL stayed out late at night,
She'd take away the key.
Miss Brown is rather more the thing
She's tender and kind,
But still there's something, and in short
l can't make up my mind.
Miss Tompkins p'raps might think of,
But there | have some doubt,
They say II thwarted she will sit
All day at home and pout.
Miss Smith will be better spec,
Her purse I've heard Is lined,
But then she squints. Oh, dear | can't
L can't make up my mind.
Miss Julia has lovely eye,
Would any heart infiame,
But, when we took walk one day,
/ found out she was lame.
There's Sally who inviting me,
With her | went and dincd,
But gracious me to sec her cat
L can't make up my mind.
Now full of smiles there's Fanny,
Who would i think give hope,
Only I've an awful fear
She never uses soap.
Once / thought of Dinah, but
'Tis said she never shIned,
And to have stupid wife,
can't make up my mind.
What shall ! door how decide"
How awkward is this doubt,
/ know they're thinking all the while
What is the man about.
I'll go at once-the question pop
TO little faults he blind,
I'm off-yet stay,-I can't-I can't
can't make up my mind.

Persons unacquainted with the struc-

not estimate the Importance OF their
healthy action.
Regular and sufficient action OF tho
Kidneys isas important, nay, even more
so, than regularity OF the bowels. The
Kidneys remove from the blood those
ciictc matters which, If permitted to re-
main, would speedily destroy life. 4
total suspension of the urinary dis
charges will occasion death from thirty

scarcity OF Money.

The scarcity Of money is the burden Of
nearly every conversation YOU hear on the
street Those who have money hold on
70 il under the impression that times are
going to be tighter Under the present
circumstances the best way to get along
and make business better, Is TO keep the
money IN circulation Let every man who
has dollar keep 1t moving, and it will
eventually come back TO him. Money IS
Of no account whatever, unless it is kept
IN use; boarded up it is a curse, kept IN
circulation 1t Is a blessing. Let every
man pay his debts as fast as he can, and
money will be plentier And above all,
let our people avoid the too common prac-
tice Of going away from home to purchase
articles which can be had in our midst
Some people seem to have kind of ma
MIA for this suicidal policy. In their opin
ion, coat. a pair Of pants, . dress pat
tern, boot, gaiter, yard OF lace, set
of furs, a--wel Just anything at all, bot
in Phrladelphia or New York-is better,
, much nicer than the same goods purchased
here, even If our tradesmen offered the ar
ticles for the same figures for which they
were purchased elsewhere. Now this IS
All wrong, and has tendency to cripple
the business Of every city where II is prac-
ticed. Buy your goods and ehattles, what
ever they may be. at home. patroRize
home institutions, spread your money in
our midst, and you VIII have done much
to make better times, encourage our busi-
ness men, and contribute materially To
the general welfare and prosperity of-the

Paonle On Nero RuHrnEe.

The bill introduced in Senate on Tues4
day, by Hon. LEwIsD. CAMPBELL, to pro-
vide for taking the sense of the people Of
Ohio on Negro Suffrage, Is one Of deep I'M
portance 70 the people. The preamble
recites the rejection Of the amendment by
the last Legislature, and that it is alleged
that the people of the State are dissatis-
fed with that action, and that this Gen
eral Assembly believes that the will ofthe
people when fairly ascertained and dis
TN city expressed, should be faithfully
carried into execution. The bill then pro-
vided that at the next October election the
question shall be submitted to vote of
the people, the amendment to be printed
IN the form Of q ballot with this PROPOSE
ton annexed: "The General Assembly of
the State of Ohio are instructed to ratify
the Fifteenth Amendment 10 the Constitu-
ton of th6United States. Those in favor
to write thereon "Yes. and those opposed
No"
The second section Of the bill provides
for certified returns Of the election TO be
made by County Clerks and forwarded TO
the Secretary Of State. who, in conjunc-
ton with the Governor and Attorney Gen.
eral, is to open the same AID certify the
result to the next session of the Eegisla-
