even If she attracts attention, can not

man She must do this by reading,

must be cultivated as we'll as the
head. "Of all ,hings," exclaimed an
elegant and refined eentleman-"of

Eamuma0e Of Finger RinQs.

In case of a gentleman wishing to
marry-literally in the market with
his heart-hc wears a plain gold ring
upon the first finger of the left (or
heart) hand.
When success attends bis suit, and
he is actually engaged, the ring passes
to the second finger.
After marriage 1t passes to the third
finger. -
II, however, the gent desires to tell
the fair ones that he not only is not
"in Market" but he does not design
to marry at all, he wears the signet
upon his little finger, and all ladies
may understand that he is out Of
their reach.
With the fair sex the "laws of the
ring are; :
A plain or chased gold ring on the
little finger of the right hand implies
mot engaged" or, in other words,
"ready for proposals, sealed or other
wise"
When engaged, the ring passes to
the first finger of the left hand.
When married, the third finger re-
ceives it.
II the fair one proposes to defy all
seige to her heart, she places the ring
on her first and fourth finger-one on
each, like two charms, to keep away
the tempter. 1t is somewhat singular
that this disposition of rings is rare.

spend their money at home
lst. II is your home. you canno
improve il much by taking none,
away to spend or invest.
2nd. There is no way Of improvin,
a place so much as by encouragiu,
good merchants, good schools ant
good people to settle among you, thi'
cannot be done unless you spend YOU
money at home.
3rl. Spend your money at home,
because that is where you generally
get il. It Is your duty.
4th. Spend your money at home,
because when il is necessary for you
to get credit, il is Of your town mer'
chants you have generally to get it,
and they must wait for the money.
Therefore, when you have the cash in
hand, spend It at home.
9th. Spend your money at home.
Ii will make better merchants Of your
merchants; they can, and will keep
better assortments and sell at lower
rates, than if the only business they
can do is what is credited out, while
the money goes to other places.
9Th. Spend your money at home.
You may have sons growing up, who
will some day be the best merchants in
town. Help TO lay the foundation for
them now. 1t is duty. 1t may he
your pride in after years to say: "By
trading nt the store, got my son po-
sition as clerk, and now he is proprie-
tor" Then you will think it hard il
your neighbors spend their money out
of town. Set the example now.
9TH. Spend your money at home.
What do you gain by going off! Count
the cost, see what you could have done
at home by letting your merchant
have the cash. Strike a balance and
see IL you would not have been just
as well of; besides helping your mer-
chant.
Sth. Spend your money at home.
Your merchants are your neighbors,
your friends, they stand by you in
sickness-are your associates, without
your trade they cannot keep up their
business. No store, then no banks,
no wanting to buy property, to settle
on and build up your place.

dead soldier in different stages of de-

one, ranging through period Of sew

the remains were orderly removed To
the Government Cemetery at Santa

body, that of Lieutenant Drew, was
transported in a coffin. This officer

Ii is absurd TO say that the dress of
women does not command more atten-
ton than solid virtues. The sinpii-
iication of women's dress depends en-
tirely upon men. When women find
that men pay more attention to, and
show keener appreciation of, those
among them who are modest aud sim.
pie in dress and in behavior, then
the regeneration Of society will
take place, and then only. How
does u modest, quiet girl fare in a
modern ballroom! how does a simple
costume avail her among modern elabo-
raiionsy will tell you men pay no
attention to her ON the score of her
quiet behavior, because, they will tell
you, they prefer girl who can "give
as good as you send" in the way Of
smart answers aud they do not ask
to be introduced to her, or dance with
her, or to take her down 10 supper,
because her simple attire will not do
credit to their popularity as men Of
fashion and men of the world. Men
must take the lead in the march toward
such regeneration, and woman will be
quick enough to follow.
