How Women Can Save Money.

| know q young dressmaker who per-
suadcd q neighbor to lend her money
enough to make the first payment on
sewing machine. She found all the dress
making she could attend to, at double her
usual price per day, and in few months the
machine was hers, and she began to save
money. Your wife may not be able to do
much Homework, but she can run sewing
machine with ease. In few months she
would save enough to pay for an extra SER
want, and pay for the sewing-machine also
She could make all your pants, coats, vests,
etc, besides her own clothes, and thus save
enough from tailors' and dressmakers' bills
to pay for the machine. My advice is to
every young lady who has only few dol.
lars in money, to expend it towards pur-
chasing a good sewing machine.-AWh0r
Of Country Homes.
1t is not unusual to find the owner of II
sewing machine earning $50 to $75 month.
Instead of half dollar for days work
extended far into the night, an operator
now receives from three to five times that
sum for day of reasonable length. From
w. L. Howard Agent, at Mrs. Ashtons
Hotel, opposite the Court House, Bel Air,
the world renowned Elias Howe Machines
can be obtained on Gerry easy terms In fact,
no one now can have any excuse for longer
doing without a Sewing Machine. Full
and thorough instruction given at tho
house of the customer and satisfaction
guaranteed.

Ruling a Wife.

A man named Taddles, in Virginia, has
got his wife in proper subsection, and
means to keep her so. "Oh," says he, in
telling about it, "there amt many men
who know how to rule wife properly
Now, my old woman is one of the best
natured women in the world, but she's got
q deuce of temper. Whenever l see she's
got her madness up, fits dozen times
day. l just quietly say nothing, but rather
humor her, and she comes around all right
after a while. Even when she throws
things at me or gives wild dash at me
with the broom or rolling pin, just dodge
little, and she never hits me a third time
before l get my eye on her, and let her
know | disapprove of such actions on her
part. Perhaps / have to leave the house
to show her this, but she sees the point
Then, by being careful not to irritato her,
and letting her have her own way, man
age to make her do as Iplease. And you
bet make her understand and appreciate
my discipline. Oh, keep her under per-
feet control. A man has, you know, got
to be master in his own house, or your wife
will ride you down as if you wasn't nobody.
My wife is a perfect angel in her natural
disposition, but any other man but me
would spoil her."

Ferdinand Clinton; and as Thorneycroft
bowed stifiy, he added, in a whisper:

And during the long siege of innammato-

Poor MIR. Thorneycoft! Truly, in his case
the sport had hardly been worth the candle.
Clinton thought it all 'iolly lark but
then Clinton hadn't been locked up all
night in the state chamber, with six weeks
of inhammatory rheumatism by way of
sequel. And things do look so differently
from different points of view.

The Lumber Supply.

The Anne Arundel Advertiser SAYS
The destruction of the forests in Pennsyl-
vania, as well as elsewhere, has gone on so
rapidly of late years as to excite serious
apprehensions Of q failure of the supply
The matter has become so serious that the
dealers and lnmbermen in north western
Pennsylvania have united in q circular
which they have sent to lumber dealers
and consumers through the State, calling
attention to the critical condition of lnmber
interests. 1t appears from this that the
amount of pine lumber annually cut on the
Susquehanna and its tributaries exceeds
five hundred million feet. Should this
amount be cut for the next five years, it
would amount to two billion five hundred
million feet, and the alarming conclusion
is reached that three years stocking at the
present rate OF five hundred million feet
per year would entirely exhaust all the
pine timber now standing The lumber.
er's circular closes with this suggestive
paragraph showing the enormous consump
ton OF lumber for single object:
eve give but single item of consumption
that of railroad ties. In this country it is well
known that there are upward of sixty thousand
miles OF railroad. For each mile ofroad, includ-
ing sdngs, there are $500 ties to the mile. This
requires the timber from twelve and half acres
OF we'll timbered land to furnish, because the
average of trees from which railroad ties can be
cut will not exceed forty from the acre, nor can
there be cut more than five ties to each of these
forty trees The total number of ties for the six
ty thousand miles of railroad aggregate $50 00O,-
600. The average life of railroad tie is said to
be about five years, consequently 10000, 900 are
requisite for repairs annually and to furnish this
amount will consume two million five hundred
thousand acres of the best timber land. In ad-
dition to this vast area, about five hundred
thousand acres are acquired annually to supply
ties for new roads which are being CONSTRUCTED

\ CASE that occurred in the Police Court one
day this week, brings to mind a topic on which
we have before spoken in these columns. previous
10 the regular session of the last Legislative As
sembly. We refer to the necessity as well as the
propriety of system of classification of offenders
in our prison. \ young lad, lacking yet some
years of the legal majority, was caught in the
act Of pilfering some articles of small value from
an auction room. When brought before the
Court, he at once plead guilty to the charge. and
showed by his demeanor that he was by no
means a confirmed or hardened offender. By the
law, the Magistrate was called upon 10 send him
to prison ut hard labor for six months. But His
Honor, wisely, we apprehend, took upon himself
the responsibility to offer to the lads father, who
had been sent for, the alternative of allowing the
Marshal to bind out the offender to serve for one
year with some responsible party, rather than
that he should go to Jail where he would be COM
PEELED to consOrt with confirmed felons, to come
out probably at the end of his term, n reckless
and a finished rogue. 1t was certainly far better
for this neophyte in thievery, as well as for the
community, that he should be allowed the oppor-
tunity amid surroundings of industry and good
example to return to the path of rectitude.
Nothing can be more surely calculated to confirm
the young beginner in crime in his downward
course than the system followed in our prison, of
hcrding unfortunately together criminals of
all ages, of every class, and without distinction
of the kind or degree Of crime. Our prisons are
Justly noted and commended for their scrupulous
cleanliness and the general good order with which
they are governed, but this is only cleansing the
outside of things, so long as there Is no system
adopted of the classification of criminals
Under Section 200 of the Civil Code, it is pro-
vided that the Minister of the Interior, with the
OF the King in Cabinet Council, shall
have the power to prescribe rules and regulations
for the Government and discipline of prisons.
And we beg to suggest that ample authority is
given under this law to begin, at least, the de-
sired reform To which VIC alIndr
