New Hampshire has something new
in the method which one of her manly
youths recently took to win the affeo-
tions of one of her fair maidens. The
young man in question was deeply in
love with girl, but che looked coldly
upon him, and persistently declined his
attentions. Feeling that if she would
allow him to wait upon her for a brief
season her indifference would be turned
to love, he gave her $40 ring on con.
dition that she would accept his atten-
tons for week. At the end of the
week, however, he found that he had
made no progress. Determined to have
a longer chance, he presented her with
silk dress worth s35 for the privilege
of being her most devoted for month,
and before that time had elapsed he was
SO we'll pleased with the course of events
that he gave her another ring without
conditions. But when the month was
up, the girl again gave him the cold
shoulder, and went with other gallants
as of yore. The fires of love died out in
the young mans heart, and he straight.
way demanded back the rings and dress
which he had presented her. These she
declined to return, believing that she
had dearly earned them; aud there the
matter rests at present, with prospect
of New Hampshire jury being called
upons.to settle the VALIDITY of the con.
tract.

The Recipe For Prosperity.
From the Detroit News.

1. Let every youth be taught some
useful art and be trained to industry
and thrift.
2. Let every young man lay aside and
keep sacredly intact certain proper
ton of his earnings.
5. Let everyone set out in life with a
fixed determination to engage in bust.
ness for himself, and let him put this
determination into prartice as early in
life as possible.
4. Begin in small, safe way, and ex.
tend your business as experience shall
teach you is advantageous.
5. Keep your own books and know
constantly what you are earning and
just where you stand.
8. Do not marry until in receipt of a
tolerably certain income-suficient to
live on comfortably.
l. Never get into debt. A man who
owes nothing can never fail.
8. Let every man who is able buy a
farm upon which to bring up his sons.
1t is on the farm that the best men,
morally and intellectually, are turned
out
8. Bear in mind that your business
cannot be permanently prosperous un-
less you share its advantages equally
with your customers. An all turkey,
all buzzard " system of business can new
or succeed in the long run. Both par
ties to transaction must be mutually
benefited if the trade is to be kept up.
TO- Experience has shown that a
scrimping policy with employees is not
the most profitable for the employer.
Live and let live is a better theory.
IL. Never get your business so much
extended that you are driven to take in
partner. If you engage in partner
ship at all, let it not be forced on you.
II. If you find yourself incompetent
to manage business successfully, settle
down contentedly to work for wages, do
your best for your employer, make his
interests yours, and shape your expendi-
lures so as to live within your income
Everyone is not qualified by nature to
manage successfully, but as much real
happiness may be enjoyed in a salaraied
position as in any other, if the individu
al be only frugal and contented.
I3. Don't seek political Office.
ii. Aim to be just and fair in all
your dealings, and cultivate good rep
utation for paying promptly.
If these few rules were generally OBJ
served, we should hear but little com,
plant Of hard times.

This Sarsaparillais a combination of
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man

of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
efficacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully COM
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
SYSTEM those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence of the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
GRITTY to any other medicine Known, that

possessed are strictly maintained.

WHAT THE BIRDS ACCOMPLISHING
swallows, swift and nighthawk are the
guardians ofthe atmosphere. They check
the increase of insects that otherwise
would overload it. Woodpeckers, creep
ers and chickadees are the guardians Of
the trunks of trees. Warblers and fly
catchers protect the foliage. Black.
birds, crows, thrushes and larks protect
the surface of the soil. Snipe and wood
cock protect the soil under the surface.
Each tribe has its respective duties to
perform in the economy of nature. 1t
is an uudoubted fact that if the birds
were swept off the face of the earth, man
could not live upon it. Vegetation
would wither and die. Inaects would
become so numerous that no living thing
could withstand their attacks. The
wholesale destruction occasioned by
grasshoppers, which have latelyIdevastat-
ed the West, is undoubtedly caused by
the thinning out of such birds as grouse,
prairie hens, ETC., which feed upon them,
The great and inestimable service done
to the farmer gardner and florist by the
birds, is only becoming known by sad
experience Spare the birds and save
your fruits. The little corn and fruit
taken by them'is more than compensat
ed for by the quantities of noxious ia
sects they destroy. The long persecut-
ed crow has been found, by actual ex-
perence, to do far more good by the
vast quantities of grubs and insects he
deveurs, than the little harm he does in
the few grains of corn he pulls up. He
is one of the farmers best friends.
