friends, we are told, is to lend them money.
"A celebrated author says that spite and
i'll nature are the most expensive luxuries
in life.
A miser's first rule in arithmetic is ad-
dition, but his heirs generally begin with di-
vision.

ted unpleasantly of sinners" ~;

and then in rafle"
Some one says the lion and the lamb may
lie down together in this world, but when the
lion gets up it will be hard work to find the
lamb.
"A grocer recently had pound of sugar
returned, with note stating that it contained
too much sand for table use, and not enough

- A publisher sent to q Norristown editor,
the other day, new song entitled "What shall
my love wear~ The Norristown man regar-
ded the question wholly in its moral aspects,
and sat down and wrote kind but firm article
recommending her to wear her clothes.
An Illinois editor thus sarcastically speaks
of the marriage of professional brother in
Indiana: "He stepped upon the hymencal
platform, adjusted the fatal moose, and was

can never return, save by the Indianapolis con-
Meeting lines"
A college president met on the cars stu

"A quiet family in the country was electri.
fed the other day by the receipt of q telegraph
ic dispatch from daughter who was teaching
in distant city. The telegram was passed
around and duly admired. The dashing bold.
ness of the chirography came in for Its share
of the praise. The old lady shook her head
with an air of gratifed pride as she calculated
slowly: Cam Maria alters did write like

sELF-RELrANcE.-They young man who
starts out in life relying upon others, will rare
ly accomplish much. The men who succeed,
are the seif-relant, confident ones, those who
have gone forth on their own energies and abil-
tiles, and who have courage to attack OBJ
stacles, of whatever character, and persevere
in their assaults until they are overcome. We
have a number of such in mind at present,
and not few of the opposite class. 1t is the
sons of wealthy farmers who are generally the
most reliant upon others. Wherever one rich
mans son succeeds in business, twenty fail.
The large majority of our prosperous men OF
all pursuits and professions are those who have
commenced life with but little beyond a,stout
pair of hands, clear head and q confident
spirit. They are the ones who su6due Difficult,
ties and master situations which to sons OF
wealth and luxury appear insurmountable.

THE Two BOoTBLACKs.-During slight
lull in business the other day two little boot
blacks, one white and one black, were standing
on a corner doing nothing, when the white
bootblack agreed to black the black bootblack's
boots. The black bootblack was of course
willing to have his boots blacked by his fellow
bootblack, and the bootblack who had agreed
to black the black bootblack's boots went to
work. When the bootblack had blacked one
of the black bootblack's boots till it shone in a
manner that would make any bootblack proud,
this bootblack who had agreed to black the
black bootblack's boots refused to black the
other boot of the black. bootblack until the
black .bootblack, who had consented to have
the white bootblack black his boots: SHOULD
add five cents to the amount the white boot
black had made blacking other mems boots
This the bootblack whose one boot had been
blacked refused to do, saying that it was good
enough for black bootblack to have one boot
blacked, and he didn't care whether the boot
that the bootblack hadn't blacked was blacked
or not. This made the bootblack who had
blacked the black bootblack's boot rs angry
as bootblack often gets, and he vented his
black wrath by splitting upon the blackcd boot
of the black bootblack. This reused the latent
passions of the black bootblack, and he pro-
ceeded to boot the white bootblack with the
boot which the white bootblack had blacked.
A fight then ensued, in which the white boot.
black, who had refused 10 black the unblacked
boot of the black bootblack, blacked the black
bootblack's visionary organ, and in which the
black bootblack wore all the backing off his
blacked boot, in booting the white bootblack.
The fraternity of bootblacks afterward con-
yened and denounced the action of the white
and black bootback as one of the blacklist IN
the pages Of bootblack history.

DIR. franklin recommends a young man,
in the choice of a wife, to select her from 9
bunch, for says he, wherever there are several
daughters they improve each other, and from
emulation acquire more accomplishments, and
know more and do more than single child
spoiled by paternal fondness. This is com
fort to people with large families.

That nation will thrive and grow, and
strike deep root inashe earth, whose young men
and women are taught to cherish happy and
honorable homes. And the nation is dying a
horrible death, whose young men and women
loath home, or know not its value. It is the
homes of q people that give all its character
and solid worth.
