BUSINESS MAxIMs. Nothing is cheap to
one who does not want it.
Earn your money before you spend it, and
YOU will know what it is worth.
Be content with legitimate business and let
speculation alone, and in the end you will be a
richer man. .oa D lea.E
Never get another to do for you what you
can just as we'll do for yourself.
Do your business honestly, and then you will
have good character.

A New Married Mans Soliloquy.

Bless me- or rather bless her who has blessed
me, what happy fellow / am How differ
emily everything appears; now l have another
to care for continually, and one to care for me.
Even the monotonous sound of the breakfast
bell has melody in it, for know whose bright
face will meet my eyes henceforth at the morn
ing meal and the pleasant task about what /
have to do to-day, and when it is done where
We shall go. Loved my bachelor friends quite
as well as most men; but where's the charm
in setting opposite or side by side with two or
three or forty whiskered faces? Bah! it's
perfectly stupid, and wonder that bore it so
long and so patiently. shall give my asso-
ciates my new ideas on the matter, though |
think one or two of them have an inkling that
the solitary road is not the best one after all.
| used to read a little on everything, then
grow weary of my book or paper. It's not SO
now, when thought answers thought between
my wife and me, and every beautiful sentiment
of a writer gets ready response from me for
l have new ideas of beauty, caught from the
lips love best, uttered for my special gratif-
cation.
Those two words, ''my wife, how much
there is in them Say it any way you will,
the little sentence has world of meaning in it.
My aoJe means my comforter and guardian
angel-not my trouble, my destroyer. My
wife-that denotes possession-she is mine,
not my neighbor's property-mine to have and
to hold, to keep and to cherish. Then the
whole, my wife, my helpmeet, my champion
| for veal or woe, for time and eternity. don't
thank anybody to call her my lady-a lady has
different signifcations-thou she is a lady; !;
but she treats everybody politely, kindly, but
wherever go with her, 1t is now, and shall be,
| and my wife, or DIR. - and wife

My dog was rather surly at first; he
thought her an intruder-that she infringed
/ upon his claims to consideration; but he had
to surrender; he loves to bow his head for a
caress from her hand; he occasionally crouches
beside her-even lays his head on her lap, and
when she walks alone, marches beside her as if
to say, Stand aside, | take care of her," l
am getting to be secondary consideration with
the dog. $3.50,
