USEFUL PRovERBs.-Always tell the truth !;
you will find it easier than lying.
He who gives trife meanly, is far meaner
than the trife.
Men looking at the faults of woman, should
shut their eyes.
If we seize too hastily, we may have to drop
as hastily.
Experience is torch lighted in the ashes of
our decisions.
Better be upright with poverty, than be wick
ed with plenty
He who laughs at cruelty, sets his heel on
the neck of religion.
Time never sits heavily upon us but when it
is badly employed.
Whatever you dislike in another, take care to
correct in yourself.
Resolve to perform what you ought, and per-
form what you resolve.

SUSTAIN YoURsELF.-People who have been
bolstered up all their lives are seldom good for
anything in a crisis. When misfortunes come,
they look around for somebody to cling to or
lean upon. II the prop is not there down they
go. Once down, they are as helpless as a
capsized turtle and they cannot find their feet
again without assistance. Such persons no
more resemble men who have fought their way
to position, making difficulties their stepping
stones and deriving determination from their
defeat, than vines resemble oaks, or splutter
ing rush lights the stars of heaven Efforts
persisted into achievements, train 3 man
self-relance +; and when he has proven 10 the
world that he can trust himself, the world Will
trust him. One of the best lessons a father
can give his son is this: Work siren thel
your moral and mental faculties as you would
strengthen your muscles by vigorous exercise.
Learn TO conquer circumstances you are then
independent of fortune. The men of athletic
minds, who left their mark on the years in
which they lived, were all trained in a rough
school. They did not mount to their high
position by the help Of leverage they leaped
the chasm, grappled with the opposing rocks,
avoided avalanches, and when the goal was
reached, felt that, but for the toll that had
strengthened them as they strove, it could
never have been obtained.

CIvILITY.-There is no one trait of character
that is SO essential to business man as civili-
ty and it frequently serves, instead of other
qualities that are far more brilliant. An indi-
vidual of moderate attainments, will, by ur-
bsnity of manner and pleasing social inter-
course, secure many friends who will take great
interest in his fortunes, while another person
of far great ability, but of an austere habit re-
pels most people and greatly diminishes his
chances in any employment that looks to the
masses for support. Civility costs nothing, and
it is quite as easy to speak an encouraging
word, or to give smile of welcome to those
with whom we come in contact, as it is to be
forbidding and disrespectful,
A salesman who properly understands his
duties is aware that politeness is half his stock
in trade. His business is to sell goods, and no
matter what position the buyer occupies as to
wealth or social standing, it is TO the manifest
interest of the merchant or his assistants to
treat the customer with becoming deference.-
The most successful clerks are those who study
how to please, and consequently endeavor to
be always prepared for the peculiar phases of
many sided humanity. They arequick to avail
themselves of individual whims and caprices,
and humor the customer in most things, to the
full extent of his desires. They suggest in the
most delicate way what is stylish or beautiful,
or of excellent material, but are never rude nor
do they attempt to force goods on any at the
expense of already expressed opinions. TO be
polite does not, however, admit ofundue famil-
iarity. The latter ohends many, and in meas
ure is displeasing to ALL

Mr.. Maynard and the Speakership.

H. R. of the Cincinnati Commercial,
speaking of Mr.. Maynard and the Speak
ership, of the next House of Representa-
tives, says: IN
OF Mr.. Maynard's ability and integrity
there is no question. He is an able man,
and in certain way peculiarly his own, a
good man. Let all this go in his favor.
Then he is from a Southern State-a
pioneer Republican Southern State, State
which made larger practical Republican
gains at the late election than any other,
North or South. With considerable pat
ting on the back and recognition and en-
enlargement, and all that, and above all
not too much abuse of Andy Johnson,
she may yet become full f1edged Repub-
lican State So much for his State AS
for Maynard himself, he comes with the
prestige of success-the glow of victory
upon his otherwise dark face, The Dem
ocrats tried to cheat him out of his district,
and he turned around and cheated them
out of the whole State. He comes from
the field where he bearded two lions in
their dens, one genuine African lion,
with foaming mouth and flowing name
and slashing tail, and the other South
American animal, but more South than
American. Then he is from the South
and the South needs show in the Gov
eminent beside what she makes with hel
votes.

The Coal Question.

The Times says that the matter of supply
of coal for Chattanooga is already becoming q
serious question. That we should be suffering
from coal famine, right in the heart of one Of
the finest coal regions in the world, is strange,
but nevertheless true. We fear that our coal
dealers did not sufficiently consider the fact that
coal is now, practically, the only fuel used here.
Wood is too scarce and costs too much
The consumption of coal for domestic purposes
far has failed to keep pace with the demand,
1t seems to US that this state of facts and the GER
tainty that it will exist again next winter, un-
less precautions are taken, ought to draw enough
capital into the coal business to bring the sup
ply up-to the local demand at least, and when
that is done, ifthere is surplus, the South will
take it all and more too
