1t is the easiest thing in the world to be
happy if men and women would only think
SO. Happiness is only another name for
love; for where love exists in household
there happiness must only exist, even
though it has poverty for close COM
panion. Where love exists not, even though
it be in palace, happiness can never come.
He was cold and selfish being who orlgl-
mated the saying that "when poverty comes
in at the door, love flies out at the window"
and his assertion proves conclusively that
he had no knowledge of love, for, unques-
tionably, the reverse of the axiom quoted is
nearer the truth. When poverty comes III
at the door, true love is more than ever In
clined to tarry and do battle with the
enemy. Let those who imagine themselves
miserable, before they find fault with their
surroundings, search IN their own hearts
for the true cause. A few kind words or
little forbearance will often open the way to
a flood of sunshine in house darkened by
the clouds OF discord and unamiability.

Not long ago the Boston police made a
wholesale capture of women found in the
streets in pursuit of an evil calling, OF the
whole number arrested lib were put on
probation-that is, allowed to go construc-
lively free. on condition that they aoan,
doned their wicked course of life and tried
to do better. Fifty.six went home to rela-
tives and became "reformed;" fifteen went
to respectable places of employment; five
were surrendered by their bondsmen be-
cause they gave no evidence of repentance;
thirty ran away and can not be found; one
went crazy, and six were admitted to a
charity home. On the whole, the furlough
or probation system has worked for GOOD,
and the authorities will continue to apply 1t.
If even ten per cent of these women are
saved by it, society will have great reason to

pianos each year. The London Figaro, in
view of the fact that pianos are not export
ed thence to any cities of the European con.
tinent or to America, wonders what be-
comes of these instruments. 1t is really
subject for wonder. Pianos last a long

there have already been constructed as
