SUNDAY EXCURSION TRAIN To
BOWERS MANSION

FEMALE SoCIETY-All men who avoid
female society have dull perceptions, and
are stupid, and have gross tastes, and re-
volt against what is pure. Your club
swaggerers, who are sucking the butts of
billiard-Cues all night, call female society
insipid. Poetry is uninspirlng to yokel;
beauty has no charms for blind man
music does not please; a poor beast does
not know one tune from another; but AZ
true epicure hardly ever tires of water,
sauce, and brown bread and butter, pro,
test can sit for whole night talking
to a well.regulated, kindly woman, about
her daughter Fanny or her boy Frank,
and make the evenings entertainment.
One of the great benefits man may de-
rive from woman's society is, that he is
bound to be respectful to her, The habit
is of great good to your morals, men, de-
pend upon it. Our education makes us
the best eminently selfish men in the
world, and the greatest benefit that comes
to man from woman's society is, that he
has to think of somebody to whom he is
bound to be constantly attentive and re-
spectful.

The Dog as u Draught Animal.

Dogs in the North are harnessed in a
number of ways. The Esquimaux run
the dogs abreast. On the coast Of Hud.
sons Bay they are harnessed by many
separate lines into kind Of band or
pack; while in Manitoba and the Sas-
katchewan they are driven tandem. The
number constituting train is generally
four, though three and even two are
used. The train Of dogs are attached to
the sledge by means of two long traces,
between which the animals stand in line,
the head of one deg being about foot
behind the tail Of the dog in fir of him.
Each one is fastened to the traces by Il
round collar of mooseskin, which slips
over the head and ears, and rests upon
the swell of the neck. This collar
buckles on each side of the traces, which
are kept in position by a back band of
leather, buckled under the dogs ribs or
stomach. The back band is generally
decorated with little bells, as is also the
collar, and many ribbons, porcupine
auills, fox tails and beads are lavhised
upon it. Great care is taken in turning
out train of dogs in good style. Beads,
bells and embroidery are freely used to
bedizen the poor brutes. A most conf
cal effect is produced by this finery
placed on the person OF dog new to the
harness, when he is invariably the picture
of fear, resembling chief mourner clad
in the garb of Pan,aloon; and the ludi-
crous effect is intensified when the victim
happens to be young in years, and still
retains the peculiar expression of puppy
hood. 1t is safe to assert that in the
North the whole canine race haul aSsledge
during the winter months. There is no
exception of age, sex or condition; from
the miserable mongrel to the thorough
bred Esquimaux, all are destined to
howl under the drivers lash. to tug
wildly at the moose-skin collar, to haul
until they can haul no more, and then to
die.

HERE is a rule for giving, given by the
Standard Of the Gross: "Give till it costs
luxuries to give-that is the rule for the
rich. Give till it costs comforts to give
that is the rule for the poor. We would
not carry the rule too far. The rich man
and rich lady need not deprive them
selves of all luxuries. The poor family
need not deprive themselves of all their
comforts. But let poor and rich alike
give till it cost them to give; till their
offerings represent self-denial and their
giving will be more nearly proportionate
than any mathematical rule can make it."

Wooden Money.

Advocates of incoutrovertible paper
currency may perhaps derive some salts
faction and encouragement from the fact
that from the reign of Henry |, down to
the period of the establishment of the
bank of England the legal tender money
of England was fabricated out of wood.
This instrument was called an exchange
tally, and by virtue of it the holder was
entitled to receive from the crown the
value inscribed thereon. 1t really con-
sisted OF One-half Of fOur-sided rod or
staff on which, when in its entire state,
the sum it was purported to represent
was carved in transverse nOtches in width
for thousands, hundreds, scores, pounds,
shillings, and pence. These signs were
for the unlearned; for the advantage OF
those who could not read, the sum was
written in ink on two opposite sides of
the staff, and, finally with II knife and
mallet the staff itself was split in two
longitudinally. One-half, called the tai
ly or check, was given to the person for
whose service it was intended; the other
half, called the counter tally, was laid up
III cutC NCCpluS uhlli iNe corresponding
tally should be brought in by the person
who had last given value for it. Its in
trinsic value was, Of course, only that of
wood on which it was composed, but in
representation it denoted large sums. 1t
was current token of real money, and
served actually to distribute it from man
t. man by this exchange. From this
primitive tally was derived the exchequer
bill, first introduced in 1896 by Mr.. Mon
tague, the chancellor of the excbequer.
The word "bill,' too, was no doubt OBJ
tanned from the Norman French word
bile, which means staff, Bank post
bills and bills of exchange in our own
day came from the same wooden base,
and soldiers are said at this hour to be
"billeted" because formerly they rendered
"billes, ," or tallies to the victuallers upon
whom they were quartered. In olden
times officers of the army who were taken
into the kings pay were said to be put
on the staff, that is, they were paid with
exchequer tallcs or wooden money.

A LONG contest is probable at Lynn be,
tween the boot and shoe manufacturers
and the Crispin organization. The re.
suits must, of course, be disastrous tC
both sides, but the unemployed laborers
will suffer most. A period when busi,
ness of all kinds is depressed, when man
utacturers have narrow margin to es-
cape loss, when thousands OF men are
vainly seeking employment, is a poor
time for interference by so.called labor
organizations, between workmen and en-
ployers. The irresponsible leaders OF
such interference will have much loss
and suffering to answer tor among the
misled wOrkmen. Strikes are rarely sue.
cessful, but where they are, they kill the
goose that would lay the golden eggs
1t is well-known fact that the interier-
ence of labor organizations has driven
several branches Of labor out of this
city, and seriously decreased others
There are many instances in England
where great manufacturing centres have
entirely lost their prosperity through the
frequenV recurrence of labor troubles
The EN- ployers of Lynn take the better
horn of the dilemma in refusing to en-
ploy workmen that are bound by the ar
bitrary dictates of the worthless fellows
who often control trade societies. That
way manufacturers may find safety; by
Welding, they would invite ruin.--N. Y.
