MARX Twain ON WOMAN.

In all the relations of life, sir, it is but a
Just and grateful tribute to woman to say,
she is a brick. In whatever position YOU
place her, sir, she is an ointment to that
place she occupies, and q treasure to the
world. AS a sweetheart. she has few EQUALS
and no supeliors; as Il cousin, she is conve-
nient. What sir, would the people Of the
earth be without woman? They would be
scarce, sir, almighty scarce. Then let us
cherish her, let US protect her, let us give our
support, and encouragement, our sympathy,
ourselves, if we get q chance. Woman is low
able, gracious, kind of heart, beautiful, wor-
thy OF all respect of all esteem, of all defer
ence. | say, blessed be woman. Yes, of old
ocean, she is he purest gem: OF the mine,
the rarest jewel; of the garden, the l~oveliest
Flower; OF the heavens, the brightest star.
What more can | say? OF all creatures,
she is the he plus ultra, and to my heart of
hearts | clasp the precious treasure-tneta-
phorically speaking, of course.

MEN MOST SUCCESSFUL IN GAINING
WOMEN's HEARTS.

Women. and curiously enough, often the
noblest and the best. are attracted by men
whose successes as heart-breakers have pas
sed into a proverb, and. far from compre-
hending all that the name implies, they are
apt to think that some special virtues and
.e~xcellencies must adorn u man who is so
universally yielded to and adored. Well,
occasionally they are right; there was rea-
son in the victories of Julius Caesar and Sir
Philip Sydney, two great men, to whom
women were no less dangerous than they

STUPID PEOPLE,
g.

STUPID PEOPLE.
A stupid man can generally do some one
thing fairly well. lie can often save mon
ey, and is sometimes gifted with a talent for
shooting, fishing, rowing, sketching, yacht
ing, preaching, turning u lathe, or playing
the ~eDrnepean.
The misfortune Of this is that he imag-
ines from his success in one particular that
he is equally capable i'll ALI But, except in
his own peculiar likes and dislikes, ne is not
tastidious. If he does not care for good
wine, he despises the man who cannot
drink marsha. 1t he is not. musical, he pro-
fesses to enjoy a street organ, fees the grind
er, sneei's at people who dislike the noise
and openly announces his belief that Beeth-
oven is dull and Wagner a humbug. II he
is fond OF town, he rails at the country. If
he likes the country, he wonders how Il man
can be such a fool as to live in town. He
makes no allowance for other peoples
tastes, but measures everything by himself.
The man who ~is,taller than he is must be q
giant, the man who is shorter a dwarf.
His house, his furniture, his religion, his
wife, his children, his pursuits, his tpreju-
dices are the standards by which every ones
else are measured. In dress he is likely to
adopt one costume and wear it always, at
home or abroad. TO stupid people, indeed
we are indebted tor all our permanent in
stitutions, and it was one Of the class who
invented the widows cap. He associates
doubtful morals with doubtful ways of
dressing the hair, and would rather see his
daughter in her coffin than wearing high
heeled shoes. He reads little, and on the
whole prefers dull books, Thackery being
novels are written without character, story.
or plot. He reads his newspaper aloud at
ter.dinner, and believes everything in it if it
is OF his own political creed; but lift is of a
different party, he does not even believe the
announcement Of deaths.
He is often very kind to the sick, but
makes a bad nurse, always arguing with
the patient, although he considers him like
all sick people, insane and wandering in his
mind. He therefore consults the patients
wishes as little as the doctors and constant
ly hints that the one is giving interested ad-
vice, and that the other is. teigning illness.
He never gives medicine more than one
trial, but sometimes takes two or three rival
bottles at the same time; and is curiou in
patent pills and digestive lozenges. He is
often very careful in measuring doses, and
is . famous hand at dropping, but never re-
members how many %spoontulls to give, and
whether to shake the bottle. He loses his
presence of mind before danger, has never
forethought to smooth things likely to SO
wrong, and is always ready to take refuge
in II kind Of fatalism which sometimes relies
on Providence, and sometimes asserts the
immutability of the Impossible.

A TOADY.

There is a Kind ov ekonomy that don't

Peace IL what we all long for, and what we
git tired oy tire quickest. The ma who kan
control his wants IL the only one who can
control his happiness. The man whom you
kan tlatter you kan abuse at your leisure.
