TRUE FLIRTs AND FALSE,

When a clown follows the will-o
the-wisp to his discontinue, we
blame the foolish man, and not the
misguiding light. And so, if the men
will be so vain and unthinking as to
Imagine that every pleasant woman
adores them because she Goes not
snub them, and designs to marry
them because she vouchsafes to chat,
whose fault is it when the presump-
tuous lover is told, with cold polite
ness, that his position is that of
friend onlyY
The real mistake consists in CON
ceiving uothing between the sexes
but love. People rush into the error
that a woman must be either dis
courteous to a man or in love with
him; the possibility Of her entertain
ing proper and healthy friendship
fer fifty of the opposite sex never
seems to strike the world.
Now the so-calIed hirt is eminently
free from ell the charges that ara
usually alleged against her. She is
open and undlsguised. Her affabiIity
is known and commented on, from
the fact that she converses without
hesitation and laughs without res
traint;' there is no concealment, no
attempt at restraint, no afec,ation or
reserve.
The really designing woman is of
another cast. Her plots are darkly
laid and darkly carried out her de-
msanor staid, and her style ire
proachable. She gives side glance,
and looks down. She encourages
not with the open invitation of an
assault, but with the covert affecta-
ton of a retreat. She leads on qui>
city, but without appearing to do so,
and the world is kept iu ignorance
Of her plans until her discretion is
rewarded and a prize secured.
So anglers catch fish--quietly, con-
cealed, cautiously. But he who chat
ters on the bank, Aaunts his rod and
line, and fiutters his brilliant hues,
fails if he thinks to net.

KINDNESS OF MELcH COWS.

Ono OF the greatest errors in over
csming cows that are unqplet while
being MIXED. is to whip, beat, kick
and hawl at them. This is general
ly done and the COW becomes afraid
and angry, and, instead of becoming
better, grows worse. Mich cows
cannot be whipped or terrified into
standing quietly, gently, and patient
ly during milking. They dislike to
be MIXED ; for they know that loud
words and hard blows attend the
operation. They dread to see the
mixer as the little urchin breads to
see a birchin rod in the hand of an
angry pedagogue, when he expects
to have it applied to his back. A
COW kindly and properly treated is
pleased to see the mixer, gladly
awaits his or her approach, and sub
mits with pleasure to the operation of
being MIXED.
Every one having experience with
COWS know this to be true. But the
cow is opposed to change of milk
ers; she soon becomes attached to
one person who performs the opera
ton, and does not willingly and free
ly give down her milk TO another
person therefore, have one mixer
to certain cows, and bear in mind, if
you change mixers it is at the ex~
pense of loss of milk and of injury
to the cows
All animals appreciate kind treat
ment, and resent an abuse. See that
those who milk them control themS
selves, govern their passions, speak
low and kindly under almost any
proyocation and soon the cows learn
that they are not going to be abused,
and will submit to the operation
Milking should be performed at reg
ular hours, not varying fifteen min
utes one day from another. No talk ,
ing or laughter should be permitted.

SILENT MEN.

Washington never made speech.
In the zenith of his ia me he one al
tempted it, failed, gave it up con-
fused and abashed. In framing the
constitution of the United States, the
labor was almost wholly performed
in committee of the whole, of which
George Washington was the chair
man; but he made two speeches
during the convention d. a very few
words each. The convention, how
eve, acknowledged the master spirit,
and historians affirmed that haa il
not been for his personal popularity,
aud the thirty words OF his first
speech, pronouncing it the best that
could be united upon, the constitu
ton would have been rejected by the
people. Thomas Jefferson never
made a speech. lie couldn't do it.
Napoleon, whose executive ability is
almost without parallel, said that
his greatest difficulty was in finding
men of deeds rather than words. -
When asked how he maintained his
influence over his superior in age
and experience when commander-in-
chief Of an army in Italy, he said by
reserve. The greatness Of man is
not measured by the length of his
speeches and their number.
