HIGH HEELs.-Dr. VIM. II. Pan
coast. Of Philadelphia, recently per-
formed a painful operation on the foot
of an interesting little girl, which had
been deformed by wearing the equally
fashionable and abOminable high
heeled boots. He takes occasion TO
warn all ladies, young and old, against
the dangerous practice Of wearing
wrongly-eonstrueted shoes, with al
pine heels two and a half to three and
a half inches high, which necessarily
force the toes against the fore part Of
the shoe, and thus cause the foot
within q short time to assume unnat-
ural proportions, tending to cripple,
or even render lame for life, the sty-
lish young ladies who patronize them
We condemn the Chinese practice
of COMPRISING the feet Of young chill
dren into unnatural shapes and
dimensions by the use Of wooden
I'moulds," forgetting that We allow
our own daughters and wives to do
exactly the same thing. DR.. Pan
coast expresses it as his opinion that
the painful operation he recently per-
formed sis only the beginning OF q
large harvest of such cases" Moth
ers and young ladies, beware!

HOW TOWNS GROW.

As a town is but an aggregate Of in
dividuals the rules Of life which bring
an individual TO prosperity may be
considered with great advantages.
Continued, hopeful, persistent effort;
a resOlute embarking Of all the means
and on some occasions Of more than
sIl-possesed, when the venture, ac-
eording to well established rules Of
busineSs. promises good rewards; q
suffieient clear head to distinguish be-
tween what is illusory and what real
these It will be conceded are essential
conditions and qualities Of success
One or two or indeed almost any num-
Der of mistakes may be overcome by
the Individual who possesses and VIII
exercise the qualities we have alluded
But the counterpart Of these quali-
ties want Of faith and trust and con-
tinuity of purpose refusal to risk
anything even when the result Is the
most promising; a ready yielding to
disappointment and adversely, can
work out but one result and II an in
dividuaI so constituted should achieve
success, it must be reekOned q scratch
rather than a legitimate fruit OF known
means. The struggle continues thro'
the entire business career OF each IN
dividual. Whenever the obvious
means of success are neglected the In
dividual falls to the rear.
The case Of the individual is an eDt.
tome Of that Of the town ertenSO, in
our new country. The town or city
which would prosper must have that
vitality Of purpose, that perennial hope
that faith in combined effort, that
readiness to risk something that much
may be gained, which signalizes the
successful individual. Each iHdividu-
al must render cambined effort posi-
BILE by being willing to yield some
thing Of his judgment and to defer
something to that Of others.
A town which is 50 unfortunate as
to be made up Of individuals 50 stub
born and Opinionated as to make all
concerted action out Of the question,
because each will act only upon his
own views has little chance Of sue
cess. Impracticability and inefheien-
cy are qualities nearly akin.
As the question how to get forward
in life Is ever new and recurring, and
forces itself always on our attention,
a word calculated to excite reflection
as to the means applicable to eOmmu-
mites as well as individuals, can new
er be properly eonsidere out Of place.

Captain Hal's New Expedition Now
Fitting Out.

In the early part Of last year the
Arctic traveller and explorer, Captain
G. E, Hall, returned to this port from
the Polar regions, in the Ansell Gibbs,
a large whaling vessel, after having
spent several years of almost unparal-
leled danger and hardship in endeav-
Oring to discover the northwest pas
sage. Unforeseen circumstances leo
him to give up very reluctantly MS
search sooner than he had anticipated.
On his return to this city, with the
aid of several influential gentlemen,
he succeeded in securing from the
government a vessel, together with
ample means to fit out another eIpe-
ditiOn. This vessel is 3 splendid craft
of four hundred tons measurement,
schOOner-rigged, with most powerful
engines. Every improvement which
could be suggested BY her brave COM
mander and various other Arctic
VOydgetrs has been perfected in order
to make her as worthy and eOmfOrta-
BILE as possible for her dangerous and
daring exploit. She has been named
the Polaria, and will carry twenty
five hands, including DR.. Hermann
Bissels, who accompanied the Ger
man expedition last year, and several
other scientific gentlemen.
The Polaria Is at present on the
government slip at Washington,
where her fittings are completed and
her stores taken in. She will sail
early in June, and will most prObably =
call at this port for few days before
finally starting for her destination
Once started, she will proceed to st.
Johns, Newfoundland, (where she
will recoal), from which point she
will steer around the north and north
western shore Of Labrador, through
Hudson's Strait and Fox's Channel,
and, IL possible, advance east Of King
williams Land; thence across Da-
visis Strait to the Island Of Disco, on
the west coast Of Greenland, where it
is supposed the expedition will Twin
ter" occupying their time in trading
with the natives and gaining all the
practicable information possible. In
the spring they will pass up Bafhn' g
Bay, west Of Greenland, to Smiths
Sound, the seeming extremity OF
which is supposed to be between four
and five hundred miles from the pole,
which distance will be accomplished
in sledges. The captain and his ex-
perienced officers and crew are most
sanguine Of their success
Two Esquimaux Indians, a male
and female, have been engaged, and
are now in the city, awaiting the de-
parture Of the expedition. The party
will be absent from two to four years.
and 1t is to be hoped their persever-
anee will be rewarded by the diseove-

A SECRET.-William Wirt's letter
to his daughter, on the ''small sweet
eOurtesies Of life," contains a passage
from which a great deal Of happiness
might be learned: Il want to tell you
a secret. The way to make yourself
pleasant TO Others is TO show attention
The whole world is like the miller at
Mansfield, who cared for nobody
no, not he, because nobody cared for
him. And the whole world would
serve you so If you gave them the
cause. Let every one see that you do
care for them by showing them what
Sterne so happily called the small
eourtesies, in which there is no parade
whose voice is too still TO tease, and
which manifest themselves by tender
and affeetionate looks and little acts
of attention, giving Others the prefer
ence in every little employment, at
the table, in the field, walking. sitting
and standing"

A STORY WITH A moral.
New York Journal Of Commerce says:
A preeOcious son who was an expert
in cards, and was seldom on the losing
side, came home one day, bringing
several dollars which he had acquired
in his small way Of gaming, and ex-
hibited his gains to his father with
quite an air Of triumph. The thought
ful parent shook his head and told
his son that the money was not hon.
estly acquired. "But I did not cheat,
said the boy. ''I hope not" replied
the father; "but did you give the
loser any equivalent whatever for it?n
The boy hung his head, and the par
ent added, Money is honestly ae-
quired where there Is an exchange Of
products or services, and the receiver
gives an equivalent for It; to take
another mans property and give him
no equivalent for It, Is to rob or cheat
him.

A New Hampshire man and a man
from Ohio ehanced to meet at pup
lie dinner in New York. The man
from Ohio suggested to him Of the
Granite State that it might be advan-
tageOus to him to remove to the
West, especially II he proposed TO iol-
low the pursuit Of farmer. The
Yankee could not see 1t; there was
no State In the Union equal to New
Hampshire. He Of the Buckeye
State could not agree TO this. Ohio
was inferior to New Hampshire in no
respect, while in many respects she
was superior. The Yankee demand
ed to know a superior feature. The
Buckeye commenced to enumerate (;
but as he presented his claims Of
superiority, his antagonist unhesitat-
ingly swept them away BY bold and
vigorous declarations to the contrary.
At length, when all other sources Of
argument had been exhausted, the
Buckeye confidently observed;
'YOu will at least allow that Ohio
justly claims superiority over New
Hampshire In point Of the extent Of
the territOry?D
mo, sir !" promptly and emphati-
cally responded the Yankee. "YOur
State spreads out because It Is fiat.

How DO BEES MAKE HONEY?-M.
Quimby, in the Rural Nel0 Yorker
says: .-.
lam decidedly Of the opinion that
they gather 1t and deposit It in the
hive without any modification what
ever. There are few things we can
say we know are not so; but it seems
TO me to be too late in the day for any
one to maintain that honey Is manu-
factured by bees. As for their making
honey from molasses, I win not say
know they never viii, but I do know
1 never could induce them to use o
particle Of it, and have tried numer-
Gus experiments with it. The foun-
dation for the belief that they ever use
it, probably lies in the fact that bees
viii gather the sugar that settled in
the bottom Of mOlasseS casks, but OBJ
servation viii show that it is only the
sugar. never could detect them
carrying on one drop Of liquid molas-
ses.
Likewise, I have satisfied myself
that bees never visit more than one
kind Of blossom during one sxeur-
sion; have known exceptions. There
Is no evidence. however, that, as Is
maintained by some, they were par
tieular about storing each kiad Of
honey by itself in the hive. One may
discover clover honey, diseOlored by
/ buckWheRt, which Is neither pure

one thousand two hundred and fifty

hundred Of corn. About four thous-

eighteen miles Of fence, consuming
forty thousand pounds Of wire and
twenty thousand posts. He owns
twenty brick farm houses, with barns

HINTS TO WRITER'S.

The rule regarding talk, when
YOU have nothing to say, say 1t, )" ap-
plies equally to writing. When you
really have something to write about,
do not peck and scratch round the
subject like a hen; pOunce upon it
boldly like an eagle. Almost every
article presented by unpractised Wri-
ter to magazines-no matter how ad-
mirable the subject-drifts to leeward
for one or two pages before the writ
sr gets steerageSWay on his thoughts,
and the reader finds out where he
wants to sail to. This fault could easi-
IL be avoided by properrevision. Cut
out all that does not bear on the sub
ject discussed; every useless adjective;
every effective repitition Of the same
idea. Then consider whether you have
said what you wanted 70 say in the
best language at your command II
not, write on till you are satisfied
Then eOndense and prune. Do not
seek for striking metaphor or spright-
" epigram, to decorate your article
If such occur naturally, that may be
put in, but with caution. Consider
whether you really gain anything by
them; whether they really add force
to your writing, or merely datter your
vanity at the time. Afterward, when
all is done in the way Of argument,
you may here and there carefully add
an apt quotation orpungent wittieism
to attract attention and make some i'm
portant sentence sndp, like the cracker
on q coach-whip. Remember, TOO,
all the time, that faculty in compost
ton, as in all other accomplishments,
can only be obtained by practice and
perseverance
,sThe grace in writing, comes by art not
As they move easiest who have learned to
dnnce"
