SELF EVIDENT FACTS.

Here is string of pearls somebody lost
from his girdle, as we picked them up as
tray. They are good enough to have
originated with Ben Franklin
II you invest money in tools. and then
leave them exposed to the weather, it is
the same as loaning money to spend
| thrift without security dead loss in both
cases.
III you invest money in books. and nev-
er read them, it is the same as putting
your money into bank but never draw
| ing either principal or interest.
1t you invest money in fine stock, and
do not feed and protect them and proper
| y care for them, it is the same as Dress
ing your wife in silk to do kitchen work.
1t you invest your money in choice fruits
and do not guard and give them chance
to grow and prove their value, it is the
same as putting good hand into the field
with poor tools to work with.
Ii yol invest your money in good
farm, and do not cultivate it well, it IS the
same as marrying a good wife and so
| abusing and enslaving her as to crnsh her
energies and break her heart.
1t you invest your money in fine
house, and do not cultivate your mind and
taste so as to adorn it with intelligence
and refinement, it is as if you was to wear
broadcloth and silk hat to the mill.
If you invest your money in fine clothes
and do not wear them with dignity and
ease, it is as if a plowman were to sit at a
jewelers. table to make and adjust hair
springs.
| If you invest money in strong drink, it
is the same as turning hungry hogs into
corn field, ruin will follow in both cases.
If you invest your money in every new
wonder that flaming circulars proclaim, it
is the same as buying tickets at lottery
office. where there are ten blanks to one
prize.
If you invest your money in the last
novel, it is the same as employing tail
or's dandy tu dig potatoes.

There are various opinions concerning
who furnished them the tools. but nothing

A DEMOCRATIC ORATOR ON THE LIQUOR
lIIEa1IQNa

On Monday evening, our Democratic brethren
procured from Washington, to address them,
man named schade, who in that city edits Ger
man paper. Mr. Schade spoke in the City Hall,
and devoted his attention largely to the'temper-
ance fanatics" seeming to regard that as the
most effective means of electing the Democratic
ticket in Delaware. The proposition which was
discussed in the United States Senate to appoint
commission to collect the statistics of drunk
enness in its relations to crime received his
special disapprobation, as he apparently
considered it important that no international
this subject should be gathered and presented
to the people, and he denounced vigorously all
laws interfering with the sacred ''personal lib
erty' of getting drunk. This was the dearest
right, Mr.. Schade thought, in all the list, and it
had been imperilled, he declared, by the acts OF
the Temperance fanatics" and the ''puritanical
element"
Exactly what the importation Of Schade was
expected to accomplish for the Democratic
cause in Delaware may be matter
of doubt. Was he to tickle thu
hotel and saloon keepers, who are dis
satisfied with the present license law Hard
ly that, it may be supposed, since that law wa
passed by Democratic Legislature and the re
sponsibility for it cannot be placed elsewher
than on the gentlemen in whose behalf MI
schade was speaking. If, however, it is tn
purpose Of the Democratic candidates to rid
both horses ; to tickle the Temperance men
the license law, and the .liquor-sellers with NJ
Schades oratory the probability is that the
will be thrown in the attempt. The questio

The Rotations of CIergymen 10 WO-
men.

Recent events have given rise to fresh dis
cussion of the relations of clergymen to women
some of which have been wise and some widely
otherwise. 1t il supposed by many that the
pastor is a man peculiarly subjected to tempta-
lions to unchaste conversation with the female
members of his flock. 1t Is undoubtedly and de-
lightfully true that popular preacher is the OBJ
iect of genuine affection and admiration to the
women who sit under his ministry. true wo-
man respects brains and a commanding maaeu-
line nature but if there il one thing which she
naturally chooses to hide from her pastor it il
her own temptationsif she has any-to illicit
qualifications. She naturally desires to APP
pear well to him upon his own ground of
Christian purity. To expose herself to his con-
tempt or condemnation would be forbidden by
all her pretensions, professions, and natural in
stincts. A bad woman might undertake to atone
for or to cover up, her outside pecadillos by the
most friendly and considerate treatment of her
pastor, but she would not naturally take him for
her victim. 1t is precisely with this that
she wishes to appear at her best. ANY man
with the slightest knowledge of human nature
can see that her selfish as well as her Christian
interests are against any exhibitions of immod-
est and unchaste desire IN the presence of her
spiritual teacher
There are only two classes of women with
whom a minister is liable to have what in the
language Of the world, would be called dangerous
intimacies" The first consists Of Disseminated
wives-dscontented through any cause connect
| ed with their husbands or themselves. A woman
| finds herself married to brute. She suffers
| long in silence her heart is broken OR weary,
| and she wants counsel, and is dying for sympa-
thy. She tells her story to the one man who is
| to her-gulde, teacher, inspirer and friend.
He gives her the best counsel of which he is ca
pable, comforts her if he can, sympathizes with
her, treats her with kindness and consideration.
