young People as Friends.


1t has often been a mystery to
me why there are not more and
stronger friendships existing be-
tween young men and ladies If
this was more general. men and
women would have better knowl-
edge of each other. and there would
not be so many unhappy married
people in the world. Young gen
tlemen rarely ever visit young la
dies with any other view than love
making or mere desire to pass
away the time, and in this way they
never sec each other in their true
light. While if they would go as
! friends, both would feel free and
unrestrained; and in the pleasant
interchange of friendly thoughts
and feelings each could better learn
the good and bad qualities of the
other and thus acquire a more
thorough knowledge of the entire
sex. Most young men think 9
young lady cannot be entertained
with anything but nonsense, and
girls are so much afraid Of having
their words ana actions miscon
strued that they are consequent,
reserved, and on their guard. Now
such thoughts and feelings as these
on both sides are enemies to true
friendship,and l believe if they could
be done away with, society would
be greatly benefited thereby. Lei
young ladies teach gentlemen thai
they have as high an appreciation
of INTELLECT as any man can have
and let young men prove that they
are not so vain and hrainless as tc
think that every woman must neces
sarily fall in love with them; lei
them treat each other as rational
reasonable and thinking beings
with some higher aim in life thar
love-making and marrying. Their
a reformation will take place, giving
a tone and dignity, moral and men.

Limo Water for Bmrns.

A correspondent writes that the
readiest and most useful remedy for
scalds and burns is an embrocation
oflime water and linseed oil. These
simple agents combined form a thick
cream-like substance, which effect
ually excludes the air from the in
iured part and allays the inflammation
almost instantly. He mentions a
case where child tell backward into
bath-tub of boiling water, and was
nearly fayed from her neck to below
her hips. Her agonies were indie
scribable; but her clothing being
gently removed, and the lime and
oil preparation thickly spread over
the injured surface, she was sound
asleep in five minutes Subsequently
it was carefully washed with milk
and water three times a day, the oil
dressing renewed, and the little pa
tient rapidly recovered. Though
all the scalded skin came off, she did
not have a scar. This remedy leaves
no hard coat to lry on the sores, but
softens the parts, and aids nature to
repair the injury in the readiest and
most expeditions manner. This
mixture may be procured in the drug
stores; but if not thus accessible,
slack a lump ofquick lime in water,
and as soon as the water is clear,
mix it with the oil and shake it well.
If the case is urgent, use boiling
water over the lime, and it will be-
come clear in five minutes. The
preparation may be kept ready bot
tied in the house, and it will be as
good six months old as when first

The Cure for Gossip.

What is the cure for gossip?
Simply, culture. There is a great
deal of gossip that has no malighity
in it. Good-natured people talk
about their neighbors because, and
only because, they have nothing
else to talk about. AS we rite
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
bookstore, or a library, with a
fresh volume in their hands. When
we meet them, they are full of what
they have seen and read. They
are trimming with questions. One
topic of conversation is dropped
only to give place to another, in
which they are interested. We
have left them, after a delightful
hour, stimulated and refreshed; and
during the whole hour not neigh
boris garment was soiled by so
much as a touch. They had some
thing to talk about They know
something and wanted to know
more. They could listen as well as
they could talk. To speak freely
of a neighbours doings and belong
ings would have seemed impertinent
! to them, and, of course, an impropri
ETY.. 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 gossiper is always
either malicious or ignorant. The
one variety needs a change of heart
and the other change of pasture.
Gossip is always a personal con
! fession either of malice or imbecili
ty, and the young should not only
shun it, but by the most thorough
culture relieve themselves from all
temptation to indulge in it. 1t is a
low, frivolous, and too often dirty
business. There are country neigh
borhoods in which it RACES like a
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 cure it while they may
