HOmeIy Girls,

Glow did that homely woman con-
trive to get married ?" is not unfre-
quently remarked Of some good do
mestic creature whom her husband
regards as the apple of his eye, and
in whose plain face lie sees something
better than beauty. Pretty girls who
are vain Of their charms are rather
prone to make observations of this
kind, and consciousness of the fact
that flowers of loneliness are often
left to pine on the stem, while weeds
OF homeliness go off readily, is, no
doubt, in many cases, at the bottom
of the question. The truth is, most
men prefer LONELINESS and amiabili-
ty to beauty and caprice. Handsome
women are apt 10 over-value them
selves, and in waiting for an immense
bid occasionally overstep the mar
ket. Their plain sisters, on the con-
trary, aware of their personal def
ciencies, genarally lay themselves out
TO produce an agreeable impression,
and in most instances succeed
They don't aspire to capture para
CONS with princely fortunes, but are
willing to take anything respectable
and worthy that Providence may
throw in their way. The rock ahead
of our naughty Junos and Hebes-is
fastldiousness. They reject, and re-
ject, until nobody comes to WOO them.
Men don't like to be subdned or to
be trified with--a lesson that thou
sands Of pretty women do learn too
late. Hiss Hannah More, very ex-
celient and pious person, who knew
whereof she wrote, recommends eve
ry unmarried sister to accept the Of
fer OF the first good, sensible lover
who falls in her way. But ladies
whose mirror, aided by the glamour
Of vanity, assures them that they were
born for conquest, pay no heed to
suchsadvice. It is noteworthy fact
that homely girls generally get bet
ter Husbands than fall to the lot OF
their beautiful sisters. Men who are
caught merely by pretty face and
figure do not, as a rule, amount to
much. The practical, useful, thought
full portion of mankind is wisely con-
tent with unpretending excellence.

HOPE on,
By MRS. ANN L. LOWRY.

When the life, like cloudy weather,
Is with darkness o'ercast,
And fate whirls thee like feather,
Borne upon the wintry blast;
Fen when darkest skies are lowering
Let no hope forsake thy heart;
Perchance itmay like summers flowers.
In glorious radiance start.
Hope thou on, what fate betide thee;
Hope alone can comfort give;
While thou hast friend beside thee,
Thou must have an aim to live.
Hope, bat not too much in earthly
Fleeing things that pass away;
Ere the anxious hand has grasp'd them
They have mouldered to decay.
Hope, but not for fame or glory,
Transient meteors, Turing on
Toa gilded name history;
All TOO dearly are they won.
Hope thou on, but not to follow
After titles, rank, or wealth;
This worlds titles Oft are hollow
Riches cannot give you health.
Hope thou on! Yes, hope forever,
In the trust that faileth not:
Hope that when we've crossed deaths
river,
With the .iast to cast onr lot.
Dive, still looking toward the fountain.
Whence all healing waters flow;
Hope that in the holy mountain
We the joys ofheaven may know.

indianapolis has a frog restaurant
which is well patronized. The Even
ing Journal says: "Tbe restaurant is
supplied by one or two professional
froggers, who hunt them in the bayous
and marshes along White River and it's
tributaries. Frogs are taken with q
grab hook, baited with flannel. The
bull element in the frog nature causes
him to attack the red color. Amateurs
shoot them, but the professional hunter,
silent, stealtlly, patient and thoroughly
familiar with the habits and haunts of
the reptile, is much more successful
with his grab hook"

The LONGEST BRIDGE IN THE WoRL,

The LONGEST BRIDGE IN THE World.
The Tensas and Mobile bridge, or
bridges, on the Mobile and Mont
gomery Railroad, extends from Ten
sas Station, to the city of Mobile, a
distance of Is miles, crossing both
Mobile and Tensas Rivers, including
ten draws, one for each of the nayi-
gable channels into which the rivers
are divided. The bridge itself is con
structed OF wood, but it's piers or
supporters are iron cylinders, which
rest on solid surface of wooden
plies driven down evenly with the
bottom of the stream and the mud of
the intervening morasses. It has
been three years in the course Of
construction, at a cost of about
$1,500,G00, and now that it has been
successfully completed, it is perhaps
the longest structure on the globe.

DISCOVERY OF THE SKELETON OF i
PRE-HfsToRIC MAN ~ AN ITALIAN
CAvEaN.-About nlooh SINCE n dis
covery of great interest was made in a
cavern between Mcntoue and Yentig-
milia, Gu the Italian frontier, not far
from Nice. NJ. Riyierc, the French
Seologist, having been sent by his gov
ernment to study TIE fossil natural
history Of Liguria, discovered the siel-
eton of pre-historic man in q large
cave situated in the mountains above
Mentone. The skeleton thus brouShs
to light photograph Of which has
been seen, is unique both rs to its au-
thenticity and completeness. 1t has
been successfully freed from the earth
which covered it, and no Unlucky
stroke of the pickaxe had injured any
part of it. only the weight of the super
incumbent earth had caused tic frae-
ture Of the ribs many years ago. Flint
implements lying around il mingled
with the remains of aatedolnvian ami
mails. Crowds from all parts of tho
Riviere, and especially from Nice, fiarc
been to visit this curiosity. One of
oar correspondents has been seen it,
and declares the fossil man is most
complete. Shell with holes bored in
them. evidently for purposes Of adorn-
ment, have been likewise discovered
in great abundance, and flint impli-
ments of the age of stone, haze also
been found. The body is -Secumbent
and one hand is hidden under the skull.
The hight Of the ran must have been
about six feet, and the bones Indicate
great power. As usual in such matters d.
the authorities are disputing the right
of possession. Italians declare that as
the skeleton was discovered on their
territory, IL belongs 10 them. Tbs
French assert That tlicy discovered if,
and, more over, N. Riviere proves
that he purchased the cave previous
to the discovery. Mean time the skel-
eton IN its cave, is the object Of inpum

How TO PUT THE CHILDREN TO BED.
Not with o reproof for any of that
days sins of omission or commission.
Take any time but bed time for that.
If you ever heard little creature
signing OF sobbing in it's sleep you
could never do this. Seal their clos
ing eyelids with 0 kiss and blessing.
The time will come, all too soon,
when they will lay their heads upon
their pillows lacking both. Let them
then at least have this sweet memory
of happy childhood, of which no
future sorrow or trouble can rob
them. Give them their rosy youth.
Nor need this involve wild license
The judicious parent will not SO mis-
take my meaning. IF you have ever
met the man, or the woman whose
eyes have suddenly filed when lit
tie child has crept trustingly to its
mothers breast, you may have seen
one in whose childhood's home dig
nifty and severity stood where love
and pity should have been. Too
much indulgence has ruined thou
sands Of children; too much love has
ruined none.

has lately been recommended very
highly for domestic purposes. For

a quart Of moderately hot water, dip
in flannel cloth and then wipe off tie

from any fabric use ammonia nearly
pure, then lay white blotting paper
ON The spot aud iron it Lightly.
In washing lace put abons twelve
drops ina pint of warn, suds. To
clean Silver mix. two teaspoonfui Of
ammonia in a qua,t OF OF su6s. Put
in your silver ware and wash, using
an old nail brush for the purpose. For
cleaning hair brushes, ETC., simply
shake the brushes up and down in u
mixture of one pint of hot water; when
they cleansed, rinse them in cold wa
ter, aud stand them in the wind or in
a hot place to dry. For washing flu
ger marks from looking glasses or win
tlows, put few. drops of ammonia on
a moist rag and make quick work Of
it.
If you wish your house plants to
flourish, pnta few drops Of the spirits
in every pint Of water used in water
ing. Il tenspoonful will add much to
the refreshing effects of the bath.
Nothing is better than ammonia water
for cleansing the hair. In every case
rinse off tie ammonia with water, TO
which we would only add that, for re-
moving .greese spots, mixture of
equa! parts of ammonia and alcohol is
better than alcohol alone, and Tor tax

strong acids in blue and black clothes,
nothing is better than ammonia.-lEx-
