Attractiveness in Women.

Personal attraction most girls possess,
at any rate in sufficient degree to rem
der them attractive to somebody; for
although there are standards of beauty
yet these do not prevail with all people.
The following sensible article from a
leading paper in the West will apply to
ladies here as well as to women of the
locality for which the article was intend.
ed "There is something wonderful in
the difference Of aspect which the same
face wears to different beholders. Proba.
bly, the philosophical explanation of this
is that which is hidden from all becomes
Immediately and instinctively apparent
to the eye of love. How can moder.
ately good-looking girl increase her at
fractions? BY culture She must cul
tivate her mind. An ignorant woman
even if she attracts attention, cannot re.
tain the interest of an intelligent man
She must do this by reading, study, re,
Election, and by familiar conversation
with the best and most highly educated
persons with whom she comes in contact
But the heart must be cultivated as vel
as the head. OF all things" exclaimed
an elegant and refined gentleman" o.
all things, give me softness and gentle
ness In woman" A harsh voice; &
coarse laugh trifes like these have sud
denly spoiled many favorable impres
sion. The cultivation Of the heart must
be real, not feigned. A woman whc
studies to appear rather than to be gooc
and generous, seldom succeeds in deceiv
ing the other sex in these respects. Sh,
who in truth seeks earnestly to promote
the happiness Of those around her is very
apt soon to obtain admirers among men
Above all other requisites in woman il
conscientiousness. Without this on,
touchstone of character, no matter wha
her charms and requirements, she can
not expect to command the lasting re
gard of any man whose love is wortl
having.
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1876-09-15
A Cure for Gossip.

What is the cure for gossipl Simply
culture. There is great deal of gossip
that has no malignity in it, Good ma
tured people talk about their neighbors
because they have nothing else to talk
about. As we write there comes to US
the picture of family of young ladies.
We have seen them at home, we have
met them in galleries of art, we have
caught glimpses Of them going from
book store or a library, with fresh
volume in their hands, When we meet
them they are full of what they have
seen and read. They are brimming with
questions One topic of conversation is
dropped only to give place to another,
in which they were interested. We have
left them, after delightful hour, stim-
ulated and refreshed; and during the
whole hour not neighbor's garment was
soiled by SO much as touch. They
knew something, and wanted to know
more. They could listen as well as they
could talk. To speak freely of a neigh
bor's doings and belongings would have
seemed an impertinence to them, and, of
course, an impropriety. They had no
temptation to gossip, because the doings
of their neighbors formed a subject very
much less interesting than those which
grew out of their knowledge and their
culture. And this tells the whole story.
The confirmed gossip is always either
malicious or ignorant. The one variety
needs change of heart and the other
change of pasture. Gossip is always a
personal confession either Of malice or
imbecility, and the young should not
only shun it, but by the most thorough
culture relieve themselves from all temp
tation to indulge in it. 1t is low, friv-
olous, and too often dirty business.
There are country neighborhoods in
which it RACES like pest. Churches are
split in pieces by it. Neighbors are made
enemies by it for life. In many persons
it degenerates into chronic disease,
which is practically incurable. Let the
young cnre it, while they may.-Dr. j.
O. Holland, Scribner
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1876-09-15
The Cost of Idleness.

When all the people of the whole
country are engaged in productive in
dustry, either directly or indirectly, it
must result in general prosperity, wheth-
er wages or profits are high or low. If
wages are low capitalists are encouraged
and enterprise and business are pushed
forward. If there is disproportion be-
tween capital and labor, and the latter
does not get enough, the evil soon regu-
lates itself by more engaging as manag-
ers, and making labor more in demand.
Ii capitalists and managers make moth
ing they cease to hire, wages drop and
many become idle. This is exactly the
trouble now too many persons are out
of employment. There are, in the Uni
ted States, at least twelve million work
ing or producing people The causes
above mentioned have thrown about one
third out of employment, or reduced a
larger number to an amount equivalent
to one third; or thrown out four million
producers Each of these would earn,
on an average, three hundred dollars a
year; some more and some less, their
food and clothing constituting a part.
Multiply the four million persons by the
three hundred dollars, and we have a
product of no less than twelve million
dollars the same as actually sunk annu-
ally, because those who could earn this
sum are idle. A much less sum con-
sumed at the Chicago fire was felt
through every state in the Union. 1t is
no wonder, then, that we have hard
times when SO large an amount of what
is the same as money is constantly alb
stracted from the great pile of national
prosperity.
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1876-09-15
Rich Without Money.

Many man il rich without money.
Thousands of men with nothing in the
pocket are rich. A man born with a
good sound constitution, good stomach,
good heart and good limbs, and pref
ty good head-piece, is rich. Good bones
are better than gold; tough muscles than
silver; and nerves that flash fire and
carry energy to every function are better
than houses and land. 1t is better than
landed estate to have had the right
kind OF a father and mother. Good
breeds and bad breeds exist among men
as really as among herds and horses.
Education may do much to check evil
tendencies, or to develop good ones but
1t is great thing to inherit the right
proportion of faculties to start with. The
man is rich who has good disposition
who is naturally kind, patient, cheer
ful, hopeful, and who has flavor of wit
and fun in his composition. The hard
est thing to get along with in this life is
a mans own self. A cross, selfish fellow.
desponding and complaining fellow
a timid, care-burdened man-these are
all born deformed on the inside. Their
feet may not limp, but their thoughts do.
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1876-09-15

A BEaGAR's BoNANzA.-Mary Finley
was Richmond beggar who died few
days ago, leaving husband somewhat
notorious for his bad habits SO bad, in
deed, that the two had lived apart for
years. When few charitable neighbors
came in to lay the body out for burial,
half dozen bags and boxes were found
in the squalid room and opened by the
curious visitors. In them were found
costly laces, mildewed silks, brocades,
moire antiques, and other styles in vogue
twenty years ago, besides some s., 900 or
$4,000 in gold or currency. The hus-
band was probably the most surprised
person in Richmond at this unlocked for
discovery, but he promptly announced
that he would treat the old lady to
first class funeral, which he did by the
aid of handsome burial casket, forty
hacks, and an imposing headstone for
the grave. Then he gathered in the re-
naming ducats-being the only heir
and betook himself to the Hot Springs
of Virginia, where" we are informed
by the local papers, she announces his

SLEEP.-It is very common for people
to pride themselves upon the small
amount of sleep they can get along with.
1t is nothing worth Dragging about.
Some persons, to be sure, can get along
with far less than others, but there
should be no stint put upon the system.
The man or woman who sleeps well and
takes plenty of it can do the most during
wakeful hours. The system requires
ample rest for recuperation and quiet,
undisturbed sleep is the best means of
repair.

Bad Habits.

Habit is the scapegoat for many sins
sins of neglect, of unkindness, of
thoughtlessness, as well as worse offences.
In the busy season of outdoor work,
some farmers have the habit of leaving
many hard jobs to the housewives, which
they ought to be ashamed of themselves
to put upon them in the winter season.
If there are no rural homes where bring
ing in wood, building fires " Juggling
water, churning, messing, and perhaps
milking the cows, and doing many other
hard and disagreeable things, are not
left to the women, while the farmer gos-
sips at the grocery or smokes and reads
his paper by the fireside, then there is
more of the millennium diffused abroad
than we ever before had reason to sup
pose. That the imposition of such tasks,
or any needless work upon women, comes
through habit, is hardly an extenuation
certainly not an excuse. 1t is a mans
duty to correct his bad habits. And one
strikingly bad habit is that of acting as
though woman's rights" included the
right to all the worry and one half the
work of home life. If this paragraph
means you, good friend, stop and think
if you cannot make the way pleasanter
and easier to her who is walking "the
long path with you Murray.

Caution to BOYS.

Boys, use no profane language, utter
no word that will cause the most virtu-
GUS to blush. Profanity is mark OF
low breeding and the tendency of using
indecent and profane language is degrad-
ing to your minds. Its injurious effects
may not be felt at the moment, but they
will continue to manifest themselves to
you through life.
They may never be obliterated and
when you grow up, you will find at your
tongues end some expression which you
would not use for any money. And this
expression was learned when boy. By
being careful on this point you may save
yourself much modification and sorrow
Good men have been taken sick and
become delirious. In these moments
they have used the most vile and indie
cent language. When informed of it
after restoration to health, they had no
idea of the pain they had given to their
friends, and stated that they had learned
and repeated the expressions in child
hood, and though years had passed since
they had spoken bad word, the early
impressions had been indelibly stamped
upon the mind.
Think of this, ye who are tempted to
use improper language, and never let
vile word disgrace you. An oath never
falls from the tongue of a man who
commands respect.
Honesty, frankness, generosity and
virtue are noble traits. Let these be
yours and We shall not fear. You will
then claim the esteem and love of all
