To Mothers.

The town of Fremont is excited
over a sad case of scandal, wherein
several girls are concerned. The
Fremont Messenger says:
awe desire to say a few plain
words to the mothers of Fremont.
In the majority of cases they are the
cause of the downfall of their daugh-
tiers. Instead ofkeeping their young
girls at home, under proper infu
ence, the majority of them are gau-
dily dressed, even like unto a court
esan, permitted to roam the city at
will, and seek whatever company
they see fit. Stand upon the public
street in the evening and there is a
constant stream of young girls from
! I1Oto15 of the best families, ,sauntering
to and fro, alone, from dark until
late at night. Such loosene5s, where
there is a natural disposition to helT
along, always has one end. We
can tell those mothers that they are
the ones who are to blame. Let them
keep a more watchful care of theil
daughters. KRow a0hsre they drt
q06e1s they are aaUay, and we will have
fewer disgraces and not so man!

Exnnnding the Lungs.

Step out into the purest air you
can find, stand perfectly erect, with
head and shoulders back, and then
fixing the lips as if you were going
to whistle, draw the air through the
lips into the lungs. When the chest
is about half full, gradually raise the
arms, keeping them extended, with
the palms of the hands down, as
you suck in the air, so as to bring
them over the head, just as the lungs
are quite full. Then drop the
thumbs inward, and after forcing
the arms backward and the chest
open, reverse the process by which
you draw your breath, until the
lungs are empty. This process
should be repeated Immediately af-
ter bathing, and several times dur.
ing the day. It is impossible to de.
scribe to one who has never tried it
the sense of vigor which follows
this exercise.-TDr. Paine.

Alice CarH,s Only Love.

/ From sn Article in the Independent, by MARI
Clemmer Ames.
In the profoundest sense Alice Cary
never loved but once. The man whom
she loved is still alive; yet gossip, with
its keenest scent, has never found OF
named him. With all her fullness OF
affection, hers was an eclectic and soli-
tary soul. He who by the very patent
of his being was more to her than any
other mortal could be, might pass from
her life, but no other could ever take his
place. A proud and prosperous family
brought all their pride and power to
bear on a son to prevent his marrying a
girl uneducated, rustic, and poor. 81
waited for one who never came back, -
she said. "Yet I believed he would
come till read in a paper his marriage
to another. Can you think what life
would be, loving one, waiting for one
who would never comet"
He did come atlast. I saw him. His
wife had died. Alice was dying. The
gray-haired man sat down beside the
gray-haired woman. Life had dealt
prosperously with him, as it is wont
with men. Suffering and death had
taken all from her save the lustre of her
wondrous eyes. From her wan and
wasted face they shone upon him, full of
tenderness and youth. Thus they met
with life behind them-they who parted
plighted lovers when life was young
He was the man whom she forgave for
her blighted and weary life, with a
smile of parting as divine as ever lit the
face of woman,

California Victory

Close on the heels of the victory
which Governor Booth achieved il
his race against Governor Haight ant
the Democratic ticket, comes the re
port of the Judicial election which
took place on the 18th ult. and re-
suited in victory for the Republican
candidates for Judges, and Superin'
tendent of Pnblic Instruction. Un
wisely, we think, these officers are
elected at different time from the
other State officers, but it has made
no difference in the result, as the Re
publican majority is 5000.

A Startling Idea.

can Old Maid" says in letter to the
Revolution that she feels aggravated
when she refectsthatif if every woman
and female child upon this globe
would be suddenly stricken from
existence the business of the world
would 60 on, to all appearance,
pretty much the same as before
"There would" she adds, "be music
and lectures, sermons and theatri-
calls, as now. Shirts and coats
would be just as well made, washed
and ironed (; tables as elegantly laid,
steak and coffee as nicely cooked
and served" The old maid tnen
gives expression to this startling
idea "The disagreeable considera'
tion is, that after a few scores Of
years the race would die out. But
1 candidly assure you that have
doubts even of this! Such vast
strides in discovery are being made
by scientists of the present day, that
goaded as they would be by so pow
erful an incentive as the fear of ex
tinctiOn, I am half prepared tC
believe that some means would bt
devised by which the race might bt
perpetuated." Who will be the frs
to discover a substitute for the ole
process?

ograpby, history, the political con-
ditiOn of the world, astronomy, the
important practical features of nat
ural philosophy, something of geOl-
ogy, chemistry, as applied to agri-
culture and the mechanical arts, and
many other subjects, are tamilarized
to the popular mind. Most persons
can talk intelligently about them
without pretending to learning or
research.
But how did they come by this
knowledge ? Not at school, nor
from books-generally speaking
but by picking up, here little, and
there a little, from the family news
papers, in imperceptible small in
staIments. Let any one ask himself
where he obtained his knowledge of
any particular fact. He is probably
unable to tell, because it came
silently, unpretendingly, in thonews-
paper.
The same is true in regard to our
best moral impressions and senti-
ments. They have been suggested,
reiterated and fastened upon the
mind by the family press. The pull
pit does much but the press more

Let any reader of a we'll conducted
family paper open its pages and
consider thoughtfully its contents.
There are in a single number some
times from one hundred and fifty to

knowledge, or giving right direc'
tion to thought, feeling and action.
Must not all this have its influence
on the reader? We think so.

whoever kisses it with a sweet, per
