CAN'T AFFORD IT.

''I tell you, Uncle Josh, I can't afford
it. Girls now days are SO extravagant,
that 1t fairly territies man contemplate
ing matrimory. There is your favorite,
Miss Hartley; she declared to me, in
str1ctest confidence, last evening, that
she couldn't imagine how any one could
exist without the opera. And not g week
ago know of her mentioning en- India
shawl as positive necessity for lady 8
wardrobe
Mere girlish exaggeration, WILL
She always had rich father to pay her
bills"
''And naturally will expect rich hus-
band to do the same. If l had Mr.
Hartley's bank account, the matter
would be different; but though my
salary is good, my income, independent
OF that, is small. IF [ provide India
shawls and opera tickets without limit
to the future Mrs. Stanton, I can scarce
" meet expenses, if [ do not actually
run in debt. Now I am quite resolved
to save a little every year till I own
home, and can start in business for
myself
"a good wife would help you, VIII. %
''Bnt where is she to be found?"
Uncle Josh chuckled little at the
idea of his giving information on the
subject, and the gentlemen having
finished their preparations for departure
started for their place of business.
Uncle Josh was the cashier, and his
nephew clerk, in large retail dry goods
store, but the elder gentleman posses
sing ample means, employed his time,
not from necessity, but from q horror of
idleness. He boarded, as did his neph-
ew, at fashionable boarding house in
Brooklyn, crossed the ferry every morn
ing for the store in New York
Handsome, well conducted and well
educated, VIII Stanton was favorite in
society, and the fact that his bachelor
uncle was fond of him, was DO drawback
to his popularity. Many girlish heart
futtered when he drew near, and Uncle
Josh was quite eloquent on the charms
of matrimony, and home for VIII,
where he might share the domestic
circle.
On the morning when the gentlemen
held the conversation recorded above,
VIII found his services required as a
salesman, owing to the illness of one of
the men In the silk department. He
had served in the same capacity before,
though he held more lucrative position
In the counting-house; but stepping be-
hind the counter he found already few
falr customers In the store. Two ladies,
young and pretty, re 1uired his services
as once.

DARING EXPLOIT AT THE FALLS. =
There have not been any accidents at
the Falls for few months, and startling
events are SO rare there just now that
boy, endeavored to see how near they
could come towards supplying the def
cheney and save their necks.
Yesterday they organized themselves
into an exploration party, proceeded to
the Third Sister Island, and started on
walk up the river towards Grass Island
about mile above the Horseshoe Fall.
On arriving at point opposite the island
they found themselves on rather dan
gerous promontory of thin ice, with
the surging waters of the channel on
either side. The breaking away of a
large piece of ice few yards in advance
soon brought them to realizing sense
Of their perieous position.
A retreat at rather lively gait was
effected safely, the two heavy men OF
the party sitting down quite often to
rest. Considering themselves out of
danger, they passed under the bridge
from which Mccullough fell last sum-
mer, and walked down to the rock that
bears his name, where they secured
souvenirs from that celebrated boulder.
Altogether it must have been an. exciting
and dangerous trip.
