Charge H."

\ simple little sentence is This, TO be
sure, and vet it may be considered one of
the most insidious enemies with which
to have all the little commodities Of
fered for sale in the market, and it is
hard to deny ones self of the same when
they can be obtained by saying ''charge
it. But this habit of getting articles,
however small the charge may be, with
out paying fer them, keeps ones funds In
low state most of the time.
Il have no money to-day but should
like the article very much"
. Never mind, says the gentlemanly
clerk. ''you are good for it.
Well l will take it, and you may
charge it. "And so it is that little &C
counts are opened at one place and another
until the young man is surprised at his
liabilities.
In many cases if the cash were required,
the purchase would not be made even had
the person the money by him; but TO some,
getting an article charged does not seem
like parting with an equivalent.
Still when pay day comes, as always il
does, this delusion vanishes, and a feel.
ing is experienced of parting with money
and receiving nothing IN return.
If there's an actual necessity of making
q purchase, and the means are not a
hand, there is a reasonable excuse fol
obtaining the same on credit; but wher
the article can be dispensed witt
until payment can be made, it is much t.
the advantage of the purchaser to do so

From the Boston Globe.l
The latest breach of promise suit in the
London courts lacks nothing of romantic
flavor. Contrary to the usual state OF
affairs the plaintiff in the case Is a man,
a Mr. Townsend by name, who had
tarmed somewhat extensively n Steeple
Barton, Oxtordshire, and there he became
acquainted with Miss Bennett the daugh-
ter of an extensive landed proprietor
Mr. Townsend and Miss Bennett, it APP
pears, became very intimate, and soon an
engagement took place between them. 1t
came 70 pass now that the father OF Miss
Bennett died, leaving his wife and daugh-
ter large fortune invested for the most
part in land. There was a farm worth
$500 a year rental, which fell 10 Miss
Bennett, and Mr.. Townsend became a
tenant or it at rental of E49S
Il year. Matters went on lovingly
until the plaintiff discovered that
Miss Benefits mamma was trying to
break off the match. The old lady, the
plaintiff alleges, was appreheusive that the
property of her daughter should be ap-
propriated by Townsend, and that pros
pective heirs would eat it all up. Soon
after this discovery, Townsend received
notice to quit Miss Benefits farm, and
soon after there was an intimation that
Miss Bennett would not perform her
promise to marry him. The plaintiff
pressed for marriage, and the lady said
it should take place in the spring; but the
spring passed, summer arrived, and the
next spring also appeared, but still there
was no marriage. The plaintiff saw that
the defendant was not herself unwilling
to marry, but that the mother did not
wish to lose her daughter. Becoming impa-
tient, Townsend called to see his berothed,
but he was met by the mother, who
ordered him off the premises. Thereupon
Townsend said he would refer the mat
ter to his solicitor, and then the mother
asked him what he would take to release
his claim to her daughters hand. GIVE
me IS, 900 cash, and I'll call il square,
said the young man. This was too much
money for the close-fsted mamma how
ever, and so the case was carried TO court,
where the verdict is yet to be reached

Tree Culture
ON the Philadelphia Ledger.I

From the Philadelphia Ledger.l
Under the act of Congress offering $50
acres of prairie land in the Western
States to any person who will plant 40
acres of the land with trees and cultivate
them for eight years, about 100 persons
had taken up 176, 900 acres of land in
Minnesota up to January. By the effort
of the State and of associated individuals
it is estimated that 20, 900, 900 trees are
now being grown in Minnesota besides
those planted under the Congressional
land grant. A report on the subject says
that the cost of planting and of cultivation
is marvelously small in many cases not
exceeding two or FIVE cents tree. The
patents for the public lands offered by
Congress are not issued until the end OF
eight years of continued cultivation of the
trees

Sex in Conversation.

The old time complaint Of men regard
ing the burden of ladies in general CONVEX
sation is mostly obsolete. In our dav,
women, on the whole, talk in society quite
as well as men; they are not quite
50 epigrammatic, and sometimes lack
condensation; but they are decidedly
more sprghtly, and tell any story which
requires quiet dramatic expression good
deal better. Their grand defect in con
versation is oblgingness If the subject
started is a bore to him, or one he knows
nothing about, the man will change it or
be silent but woman will often 20 on,
out Of mere cbligingness, with a show of
interest which is visibly pretense, and a
series of replies which are vapid as the
white Of an egg. No man talks as badly
as most women on subjects they know
nothing about, for no man, who, under
those circumstances, talks at all, hesitatcs
to be a little bitter-and vanilla, be it
rice or not, has at worse more havors
than cream-cheese. But the serene, equa-
bic flow of woman's talk helps nightly to
prevent conversation from degenerating
into intellectual duelIing- which, though
amusing for two minutes, is a WEAKNESS
after five, and to be perfect should be ar
rested after two shots each. Women,
moreover, wake up talkativeness in the
men-an attribute of the sex which is too
often overlooked

From Rev Charles Kingsley's "Hypatia."l

mers, formed in the most yoluptuous
mold Of Grecian beauty, whose complex
ion showed every violet vein through it,
veil OF luscious brown her little bare
feet, as they dimpled the cushions, were
more perfect than were Aphrodite's,
softer than a swans bosom. Every swell
Of her bust and arms showed through the
thin gauze robe, while her lower limbs
were wrapped in a shawl of orange silk,
embroidered with wreaths Of shells and
roses. Her dark hair lay carefully
spread out upon the pillow, in a thousand
ringlets entwined into gold and jewels;
her Ianguishing eyes blazed like diamonds
from a cavern under eyelids darkened
and deepened with black anthony; her
lips pouted by themselves, by habit or
by nature, into perpetual kiss; slowly
she laised one lazy little hand; slowly the
ripe lips opened, and in a most pure and
melodious Attic she lisped her huge
lovers question to the moak, and re-
peated it before the boy could shake off
the spell and answer.

True Hospitality.

True hospitality of the home is never
loudly and noisily demonstrative. 1t
never overwhelms you with its greeting.
though you have not doubt of its per-
feet sincerity. You are not disturbed by
the creaking of the domestic machinery,
suddenly driven at unwonted speed for
your accommodation. Quietly it does its
work, that it may put you in peaceable
possession of its results. He is not the
true host, she is not the best hostess, who
is ever going to and fro with hurried ac-
ton, and Hurried manner, and heated
countenance, as if to say, "See how hos
pitable can be-" but rather the one who
takes your coming with quiet dignity and
noiseless painstaking; who never obtrudes
attention, yet Is very attentive all the
while; who makes you, in one word--most
expressive word in the English tongue
to be at home. THERE'S no richer, deeper,
larger hospitality than that.
