Only a Cup Of Coffee.

Fields aud fields sparkled like snow
in the sun. Away in the distance rose
the mountains, bare and brown, THEN
tops lost in the clouds. Close by the
railroad track stood the rough station
buildings aud two or three adobe huts,
where refreshments were offered to trav-
elers. The express had Numbered past
an hour before, and now the third class
came leisurely up and stopped. Out
stepped the passengers, intent upon
breakfast. One tamily--father, mother
and children, had brought their provis-
ions with them, and made their tea and
coffee as they wanted it, on the stove in
the car. But most of the company were
men and did not know much about help
ing themselves. One slender lad, Harry
Mlnlurn, sat in his seat at the other end
of the car until all around him had gone
out then taking out his purse he care
fully counted its scanIy contents. Ii had
taken weeks of savings TO get enough TO
buy the ticket for the East, and his mar
gin was small when that was done.
''Bread and butter this morning." he
said, whislling, as he joined the throng
outside. A few steps off he saw very
modest little shan y, which seemed to
have nobody near it.
"That's the place for my money"
thought Harry. Entering, delightful
oder Of coffee greeted him. How good
it was just the smell seemed TO warm
him, and his hand in his pocket felt the
few "bils" longingly. Alas he knew
just how far they would go, and how
many meals they would buy, and Harry
had learned that it is safe never TO spend
your last penny, and honorable to save
and scrmp, and even appear mean, 80
that you do not go in debt. The jolly
young fellows who told stories and sang
songs in the cars would have lent him
money, careless whether it was ever

Tick-Lisi Telegraphing.

Two young men, telegraph operators,
boarding at one OF our leading third
class hotels, lind great amusement in car
iyng on conversation With each other at
The table by ticking Oh their plates, with
fork, knife or spoon. a combination of
sounds or ticks constitutes tie telegraph
ic a alphabtt, persons familiar with these
sounds can converse thereby as intelli-
gently as with spoken words. A short
time since, while these fun-loving youths
were seated at breakfast, stout built
young man entered the dining room with
a handsome girl on his arm, whose blush
ing countcnance told her to be bride.
The couple had, in fact, been married
but day or two previous, and had come
to San Francisco from their home in
Oakland, or Mud Springs, or some other
rural village, for the purpose of spending
the honeymoon. The telegraphic tickers
commenced as soon as the husband and
wife had seated themsely es.
No. opened the discourse as follows:
"What lovely pigeon this is along
side OF me amt she Z"
No. 2-"Perfectly charming-looks as
if butter would not melt in her mouth.
Just married, guess? Don't you think so!"
No. I.-"les, l should judge she was.
What luscious lips she's got! If that
country pumpkin beside her was out of
the road, I'd give her hug and kiss
just for luck"
No. 2.-'Suppose you try it, anyhow.
Give her little nudge under the table
with your knee"
There is no telling to what extent the
impudent rascals might. have gone, but
for an amazing and entirely unforeseen
event. The bridcgroom's face had flush
ed, and dark scowl was on his brow
during the progress OF the ticking con-
versation; but the operators were too
much occupied with each other to pay
any attention to him. The reader may
form some idea OF the young mems con-
sternatiOn when the partner of the lady
picked up his knife and licked off the
following terse but vigorous message
"This lady is my wife, and as soon as
she gets through with her breakfast,
propose to wiring both your necks, you
iusolent whelps."
The bridegroom was a telegraph op-
orator, and 'knew how it was himself"

Women ia Hotels,

The woman who finds herself housed
and clothed and petted and furnished
with money for artificial as well as real
wants, without the lifting of a finger, or
the burden OF care, aud without the
culture of head or heart that leads her
to seek for the higher satisfactions of
womanhood, becomes 10 the most natur.
al way dwarfed and degraded. The
simple truth is that unless women have
routine OF duty that diverts their
thoughts from themselves, aud gives
them something else TO think OF besides
dressand the exhibition of it, they de-
generate. The only cure for this that
we know of is universal housekeeping.
There is no man who can afford to pay
a fair price for board who cannot afford
TO keep house aud housekeeping though
it be never so humble, is the most natur-
al and healthiest office to which woman
is ever called. There is no one thing
that would do so much to elevate the
type of New York wOmanhood as
universal secession from boarding house
and hotel life, and universal entrance
upon separate homes. Sucn a step would
increase the stock Of happiness, improve
Va bOuN VI abNA
raise at once the standard of morals aud
manners.
The devil always finds work for idle
hands TO do, whether the hands belong
TO men or women; but American men
are not apt to be idle. They are absorb
ed in work early and late, and leave
their idle wives cooped up in their rooms
that cost them no care, TO get rid OF the
lingering time as they can. Is it kind
to do this, or is it cruel? lfit is kind in
it's motives it is cruel in its results. The
whole system of boarding house and ho-
tel lie 10 vicious To live in public, to
be on dress parade every day, to be al
ways par. aud parcel of a gossping
multitude, to live aimlessly year after
year, with thoughts concentrated upon
ones person and ones selfish delights, to
be perpelually without a routine of
healthy duty, is to take the broadest and
breifest road to the degradation of all
that is admirable aud lovely in woman
hood. 1t is to make, by the most natur-
al process, that gay, gauly, loud, frivol-
GUS, pretentious, vain, intriguing, unsat-
isfied apd unhappy creature which the
Englishmau knows as ''Ths New York
Woman"

Patience With Little Ones,

Be patient with little ones. Let neith-
cr their slow understanding nor their
occasional pertness offend you, or pro-
woke the sharp reproof Remember the
world is new to them, and they have no
slight tasks to grasp with their unripen-
ed intellects, the mass of facts and
truths that crowd upon their attention.
You are grown to maturity and strength
through years of experience, and it i'll
becomes you 10 fret at the little child
that fails to keep pace with your
thought. Teach him patiently as God
teaches you, cline upon line, precept up
On precept; here a little, there little"
Cheer him on in this conflict with mind !;
in after years his ripe, rich thought shall
rise mp and call you blessed. Bide pa
tiently the endless questioning of your
children. Do not roughly crush the
springing spirit of free inquiry with an
impatient word or lrown, nor attempt,
on the contrary, long and instructive
reply to every slight aud casual question.
Seek, rather, to deepen their curiosity,
convert, if possible, the careless question
into profound aud earnest inquiry. Let
your reply send the little questIoner
forth, not so much proud of what he has
learned, as anxious TO know more. Hap
py you, if in giving your child the frag-
ment Of truth he asks for, you can whet
his curiosity with glimpse of the mcun-
tain of truth lying beyond; SO you will
send forth philosopher, and not silly
pedant, into the world. Bar patiently
the childish humors of the little ones.
They are but the untutored pleadings of
the young spirit for care and cultivation.
lrrtated into strength aud hardened in
to habits, they will haunt the whole Of
life like tiends in despair, and make your
little ones curse the day they were born
but corrected kindly and patiently, they
become the elements OF happiness and
usefulness. Passions are but fires that
either scorch us with their uncontrolled.
fury, or may yield us a genial and need
tul warmth. Bless your little ones with
patient care of their childhood, and
they will certainly censecrate the glory
and grace of their manhood to your SER
vice. Sow in their hearts the seed of a
perennial blessedness its ripeued fruit
will afford you a perpetual joy.

Starting in Married Life.

ried very poor young man he worked
out by The day or month, on the farms,
and in order that the stormy days should
not consume the income OF the fair ones,
