Treatm emit of Girls.

How many unhappy girls have Bpait
dearly for the early upbringing Of tSshei
young husbands, who, the first glamour@ o
love psssed, treat their wives as they WIDER,
allowed 10 treat their sisters, aud they sXlaV
their.fathers trcat their mothers-careless!s9 y
disrespeo.fully, with total want of cousit 10
rate tenderness, which is worth all ttSah,
passionate love in the world. This, Thought
they may mu,ter onteide as excellent hussa-
bands, never doing anything really bad, an.naG
possessing many good and attractive qualifN
ties, yet oontriviug somehow to break th(.i
poor womanl5 heart, or harden it into thatIl
acceptance Of pain which is more fatal totl
married happiness than oven temporarySl
ostrangement. Anger itself is safer thing
than stolid, hopeless indifference.

OF family where the mother, q most heroic
and self denying woman, laid down the
absolute law, "Girls first;" not 10 any
authority, but first to DO thought Of as to
protection and tenderness. Consequently,
the obivalrous care which these lads were
taught to show to their own sisters extended
itself to all women. They grew up true
gent|emen-gen gentlemen, generous, exaeting,
courteous of speeoh, aud kind of hoart. 10
them was the protecting strength of man-
hood, which scorns to use its strength OK.
oept for protection; the proud honesty of
manhood, which infinitely prefers being
lovingly and openly resisted to being
"twsted round ones fuger," as mean men
are twisted, and mean women will always
De found ready to do it; but which, think,
all honest men and brave women would not

A DARING DEED.
Jewelry Store Robbed in Presence
of q Crowd.
National Associated Press to the Star.

National Associated Press to the Star.
New YORK, Nov. SIN Eighth avenue
between Fifty-fifth and Fifty-sixth streets,
on the east side, is Johnson's jewelry store.
1t is under fashionable flat and in part
of the avenue where many are continually
passing. In the front windows were ex-
posed for sale $4,000 worth of clocks and
watches Mr. johnson, his clerk and
a gentleman were in the store last evening,
when shortly after clock, in the presence
of throng of persons, five men entered.
One grasped the handle of the door and
held it firmly, while another covered the
persons inside with a revolver; the two
others then smashed in the large plate win
dows and packed in two bags the watches
and chains that were exposed for sale.
While they were thus occupied they were
covered by two other men who held large
pistols in their hands and ordered the
passers-by to move on. A saloon-keeper
who lives opposite, hearing that thieves
were robbing Johnson's store, stepped across
with a rifle. He was knocked down by
some one who stood in the crowd. The
thieves having packed up the watches and
clocks, still protected by their two compan,
ions, walked quickly to light butcher-cart
that stood in Fifty-sixth street and drove
rapidly away.
The two men who stood guard at the door
in the meantime having received signal
turned on the throng, presented their pis
tolls, and fired them in the air. This caused
general stampede, during which they
escaped. Captain Ward, Inspector Thornt
and large force of police arrived after the
thieves had gone.
