There is nothing more common than
the assertion that the women of this day
and generation are so extravagant in
dress, and SO helpless in other respects,
that none but rich men can afford to
marry. Foolish people are constantly
iterating this charge against the women
of the present day, and every time
man fails in business these people take a
mental inventory of his wife's wardrobe
and cry out, "What pity he was ruined
by his wifes extravaganza. No account
is taken Of his club expenses, or his un-
necessary restaurant bills, or his fast
horses, or the vanity which prompted
him to buy bigger and finer house than
he needed; nor of his wardrobe, for
which he paid two prices, because they
were made by celebrated artist tailor"
The man may have gambled his money
away, or lost it in reckless stock spec
ulation, for all anybody knows. And if
his wife has been as extravagant as he,
the fault is usually his, so long as the
fact remains that any proper man can
lovingly control the course of any proper
wife. Women are often extravagant
The fact cannot be denied. But that
they are more so than men is by no means
true. AS rule every woman wishes to
live within the means of her husband s
income, and In nine families out of ten
all the economizing done at all is done
by the wife.
This constant iteration of the charge
against woman, however, has secured a
kind of passive acceptance of the theory
and nothing is more common now than
for young men with salaries of one OF
two thousand dollars year to lament
their inability to marry, because women
are so extravagant. One of these has
recently told the public through the
newspapers how it takes all his income
to support him, which he states is two
thousand dollars year, but after look.
ing over his bill of items we find that il
takes fifty-two dollars worth of perfum.
cry every year to keep him sweet, We
therefore, quite agree with him that he
should not marry. A woman weak
enough to marry such youth would
probably give him trouble even with &
much larger income than his to draw
upon.
The truth is men want to live in {
more costly style than their income viii
allow. They hire houses they canno
afford nn1 I.,-- e-.-...:s.----- ,L1--~-l--l :,
means, and live in a style, generally
they cannot maintain. Their wives
knowing less than them of the depths O
the purse at command, accept the hus
bands estate of their ability to ive,ant
they dress as their lords clearly wisl
them to do. And then the crash comes

CURIOSITY SATIsFIED.-The curiosity
of a young lady was thoroughly satisfied
at Little Falls the other day. She visit
ed telegraph Office and there saw
pair of handouts, left by an officer who
had gone to Syracuse. She put them
upon her wrists and they fitted well, and
so she snapped them together and there
they were. There was she, moreover.
for when she tried to get them off they
wouldn't unsnap. Various entreaties
were made to friends and acquaintances
in the vicinity, but they couldn't assist
her. Keys were tried in vain. Tears
and explanation points were used in pro-
fusion, but the inexorable bracelets re-
mained fixed. Finally telegraph mes
sage was sent to the officer at Syracuse
to ''come back. quick speedily followed
by another of like tenor. He returned
as soon as possible, and after being
prisoner several hours the young lady
was released. She has, it is said, no
especial desire for further experience of
any. kind. She is hardly able to appear
in company.
RECEIPT FOR MAKING TATTLERs.-
Take handful of the weed called Run
about, the same quantity of root called
Nimble-tongue, a sprig of the herb Back
bite, tablespoonful of Dont-you tell-it,
and six drachms of Malice, and a few
drops of Envy. Stir them well together,
and simmer them for half an hour over
the fire of Discomfort, kindled with
little Jealousy. then strain it through
the rag of Misconeeption, and cork it up
in the bottle of Malevolence and hang
upon skein of Street Yarn; shake it
occasionally for few days. and it will
be tit to use. Let a few drops be taken
before walking out, and the subject will
be enabled to speak all manner of evil
and that continually. t8t

StA: ON aD1IE
The heavy mists and cold night dcws which
characterize the present season are very trying
to delicate organizations and in loW-lyng and
swumpy Localities trey produce an enormous
crop of internlittnn. tcvers of various types and
degrees of intensity. At this very time there
arc probably half million of people in the
United States suffering from periodical tevers by
lniaslnalc logs and eXhalations. What makes
the prevalence of this evil n orc deplorabie it

while their neighbors are ncupacitated for labor
by that debiltaLing disease, they have been hap

their most obst nate forms but the wiser course
is to forestnll attack by taking the preparation
