"Very cotvehient logic for
the ladies" thought George.
"Some have a taste for such
duties, and prefer to make
themselves acquainted with
them," said he, afor the pur
pose of overseeing their ser
wants, and knowing themselves
that these things are done las
they should be, if for no other
purpose" .r.a II
''True, but l am not one OF
that sort-I abhor them.-
Housework Is perfectly hate
ful-detestable to me. o, dear,
I should consider a man cruel
who wished me to confine my
self to it, even part of the
time" r..i
aWell," continued George,
drawing a breath, for he was
surprised to hear Josephine
express herself so directly con-
trary to all his previous notions
of a woman's duties, "a lady
sometimes marries a poor man
and finds it for her interest to
conform to circumstances, and
attend to duties which are not
agreeable to her for the sake
of assisting her husband and
rendering his burden lighter"
"Yes, but l make no calcula-
ton of that KIND" said Joseph
inc, firmly, though pleasantly,
for she was really an agreea-
BILE girl, though allowed to
grow up with erroneous no
tions in regard to domestic af
fairs. 81 prefer not to wed 6
man unless he is able and viii
ling to support me In ease and
style"
"Then you would not make
the right kind of q wife fol
me-" thought George, thor
oughly sick of Josephine's re
marks; and as soon as posSibl,
he changed the topic of con
versation.

the patlor, "but 1 dislike apol-

"And there's where l hoped
to find you," George came near
saying; but checking himself,
replied, 81 know it; it's a part
of woman's duties, and l am
sure an apology would be out

"So 1 thought" returned
Hettie.

George.

Hettie; "we are through with

later than usual, as mother has

has laid down, but father will
be in presently to entertain

Georges countenance was
Frightening up every moment,
and he began to think the fears
groundless in regard to Hettie;
but he was resolved to test her
ideas thoroughly.

LOVE YOU FOREV Err .

GThe following waif expresses the Ia
mentation of many heart disappointed
in its aspirations.
shall not forget you: the years may
be tender.
But vain are their efforts to soften my
smart.
And the strong hands of Time are too
feeble and slender,
To garland the grave that is made in
my heart.
Your image is ever about me-be:ore
me,
Your voice floats on the wing Of the
wind !;
And the spell of your presence in alb
sence is Ger me,
And the dead of the past in the present
| find.
can not forget you the one boon un-
The boon of your love is the cross that
L bear;
In the midnight Of sorrow vainly have
striven
To crush in my heart the sweet image
hid there.
To Danish the beautiful dreams that are
thronging
The halls of my memory-dreams worse
than vain
For the one drop withheld am thirst
ing and longing,
For the one JOY denied me I'm plning
in pain.
I would not forget YOU live to re-
member
The beautiful hopes that have bloomed
to decay,
And brighter than June gl9ws the bleak
est December,
When peopled with ghosts of the dreams
passed away.
Once loving you truly, love YOU for
| mourn not in weak, idle grief for the
past !;
But the love in my bosom can never,
oh never
Pass out, or another pass in,first or last.

A plague of butterflies is rare oc-
currence A short time ago, however,
the town of Florence was invaded by a
prodigious quantity of these insects. All
the distance of the Lung Arno between
the Piazza Manin and the Barriera, and
in all the adjacent streets, the passage
was almost obstructed by an eytraordi-
nary quantity of butterflies that had
swarmed in such thick clouds under the
gas lights that the streets were compar
atively dark. Fires were Immediately
lighted by order of the municipality and
by private citizens in which the butter
flies burnt their wings, so that half an
hour afterwards one walked upon n lay

whitish color, and some of the streets
appeared as if covered with snow; at
least, so say the Italian papers.

FIVE MINUTES CHAT WITH GIRLS

The preacher will assure you, says
Dio Lewis, that love to your God and
t. your fellow-man is all there is Of it.
And yet he goes on preaching and eX-
horting all his life.
So assure YOU that the laws of health
are few and simple, and yet have
gons on preaching and eShorting for
thirty years, and shall keep it up as long
as live.
Girls, the greatest obstacle in the way
of your health and happiness is what
+ We have been talking about all our lives
viz, slavery to custom or fashion.
To illustrate it for the thousandth time,
| will relate fact.
Years ago l sailed from New York on
board the stauach old Cunarder Africa,
bound for Liverpool. Among our pas
sengers were some newly married cou-
pies. One of them was from Philadel-
phia. The bride was n delicate and
beautiful girl.
Ny state-room Joined theirs. We
were scarcely out of the harbor before
the lady began to vomit. During the
entire voyage her suffering were dread
full. The ships physician really became
alarmed. A friend happened to call me
Doctor in the presence of the young hus-
band, when he eagerly inquired
care you physician 2
/ said yes.
"Do come and see my wife, and for
mercy's sake try and save her"
We did everything in our power but
the sensitive brain would not be APP
peased and the retching and tainting
continued until she was carried out of
the ship at Liverpool, more dead than
alive.
Two months after our landing heard
this beautiful, brilliant young woman
describing TO 4 group of admlring
friends, in Partisan hotel, the splen-
dors Of sea voyage.
.'Oh, it is magnificent the sea IN
storm-the wild mountain-waves crest
ed everywhere with foam ! Oh, the sea
in a storm is perfectly glorious !!
The poor child had heard fashionable
people make such ordinations, rs she
had seen them wear absurd dress; asshe
had heard them talk absurd nonsense {;
as she had seen them walk and wiggle
and giggle in an unnatural and ridicu-
lous manner. She, like too many girls,
had aspirations for recognition among
the fashionable. SO. from her close lit
tie state-room, lying flat on her back,
retching and vomiting, fainting and dy-
ing, she saw the ''magnifcent, glorious,
foam capped waves"
All, girls, If you only could rise above
such weakness, if you could only think
and feel, dress and walk, speak and act,
for yourselves, what All immense gain in
all ways How much you could help
us in a higher life
