A Divorce with a I Terrible
Origin.

A correspondent writing from
New York to the Baltimore NelCS
says: There is in this city, how
ever, one most amusing low come
dian who has reason FIR never
smiling. III his youth he WAS
father of a little girl OF a refraat J.
ry, obstinate disposition. OIe
day, to punish her for something,
he locked her in the bedroom,
and with his wife went down
stairs to dinner. Soon the child
began to scream in terrible nan.
ner, which the parents GOES aereu
was only temper; but as the
shrieks continued the wife became
alarmed and desired to 90 to her.
He, however, forbade her d ing
so, as he said the child must b.
taught obedience. and that she
should not gain her end by
screaming. They went on with
their dinner, the fearful shrieks
continuing for IL while aud then
ceasing. As they were about
leaving the table, smoke began to
pass through the house. There
was fire somewhere. Rushing 10
release the poor little girl, they
found her dead. Her clothes had
evidently taken fire from the
crate, and while the parents were
eating the child was dying. The
comedians wife took a horror and
hatred Of her husband after this,
as she believed that if he had Al
lowed her to 60 to the poor intaut
she might have saved her life
They were divorced. No won
der that man never smiles of the
stage.

Slurs on Women.

At recent dinner in New
York, at which no ladies were
present, man In responding 10
the toast, "Women," dwelt almost
solely upon the lrailty Of their
sex, claiming that the best of
them We're little better than tie
worst-the chief difference being
in their surroundings. At the
conclusion OF the speech a gen.
tIeman rose and said: II trust
the gentleman in the application
of bis remarks refers to bis own
mother and sisters, not ours -
The effect of this just and timely
rebuke was overwhelming; aud
the maligner of women was COW
cred with shame and confusiOn.-
This incident serves an excellent
purpose in pretacing a few words
on the subject. OF all the evils
prevalent III men we know of none
more bIighting in its moral effect
than the tendency to speak lightly
of the virtues of women, Nor IS
there any thing in which young
men are so thoroughly mistaken
as in the estimate they form of
the integrity OF women--not
their own mothers and sisters.
thank God--but of others whom
they forget are somebody elses
mothers and sisters. Let young
men remember that their chief
happiness in life depends on their
faith in women. No worldly wis
dom, no miSanthrOplc philosophy,
no generalization, can cover or
weaken this fundamental truth
1t stands like the record OF God
himsell-icr it is nothing less
than this-and should be al ey-
seal upon the lips that
are wont to speak lightly Of wO-
men.-M0ntreaI Gazette.

Why He Couldn't Go.
From the Brooklyn Argus

Il wouldn't be such a Chris
tian as you are, john" said his
wife, as she stood in the door
way dressed for church. "YOu
could go with me very we'll if
YOU wanted to.
"How can I?' he half sobbed.
"There's the wood to split, and
the coal to be shoveled over to
the other side of the cellar, and
no dishes washed for dinner"
"Ah, l didn't think Of that" "
she murmurcd, thOughtfrlly,
and giving her new cloak an
other hitch aft, sailed out alone.
