How to Get Rich.

Nothing is more easy than to grow rich.
It is only to trust nobody-to be-friend
none-to get all you can and save all you
get-to stint yourself and everybody be-
longing to you-to be the friend of no man
and have no man for your friend-to heap
interest upon interest, cent upon cent-to
be mean, miserable and despised for some
twenty or thirty years and riches will
come as sure as disease, disappointment
and death.
And when pretty nearly enough wealth
is collected by disregard of all the char
tiles of the human heart, and at the ex-
pense ofevery enjoyment, death will finish
the work-the body be buried-the heirs
and the spirit will go-where?
By all means get rich-it will pay.

A Sudden Death.

There is something terrible in the
thought Of having our friends stricken
down at our side, without a parting word
of endearment or consolation-one mo-
ment our side in the flush of vigorous
life, cheering our hearts with their loving
sympathy; the next at our feet, pale with
death, deafto our cries and needless of our
tears. Every excessively, fat person is in
instant danger of such death. Seven.
tenths of the victims of obesity die of heart
diseas or apoplexy.

A we'll known New York chemist assur-

How TO Stop RUNAWAY HoRsEs.-The
Mexicans have method ofsubduing frac-
tious horses such as are inclined to run
away, which might he introduced with
profit here. A hood or winker is so ar
ranged that the driver or rider can in an
instant draw it directly over the eyes of
the animal, effectually blindfolding him.
Whenever this is done the horse instantly
becomes quite, and a repetition of the
blindfolding two or three times, gradually
results in his becoming quiet and docile.
Such an arrangement would be valuable
appendage to the head-gear of horses dis
posed to run away.

A Bachelors Apology.

Her eyes were bright; her figure slight,
And light as any fairy,
Her nose was heavenward inclined
Her manners sweet and airy.
Her mouth was like rosebud;
Her voice like any linnet;
Her head was little, and fear
Had very little in it.
But then SO artless was her art
My heart could not resist her;
And added to her other charms,
She had pretty sister,
They bloomed like any double rose,
They FLUSHED double pink;
One graced the name of Laura;
The other, Kate, think.
When left alone with Laura,
Love urged his soft dictate;
And in sweet Laura's absence,
dotted more-on Kate.
And thus TO choose between them
'Twere treason to decide,
Because | had been happiest
With either for my bride.
To fitch one flower, and leave her
Companion all alone,
To pine in single sadness,
Would need heart of stone.
Aud that's the reason, ladies,
Pm still your partisan,
For being single-hearted,
rest single man.
