so WING AND REAPING.

"Whatever O man sowoth that shall
he also reap both in the natural and
in the moral world. Every seed in the
ono and every deed in tho other, yield
fruit alter It's kind. The principle of
sowing and reapipg is especially i'm.
portant TO tho young, who are just be.
ginning to shape their character and
destiny.
In the Spring time Of life we sow
what we must reap in the Autumn OF
age, and through the endless ages Of
eternity. The chiefpossiblities Of good
or evil for all the future are bound up
in the period OF youth.
The sowing may be done thought
lessly and carelessly, but il will report
itself in due time according to this
law.
Men in age often say;
"lf | could but live my life over
again how differently II should be-
While this is impossible, still the young
may have the advantages of second
lifo by trying the O. unsels and expert
ences Of the aged.
II is of the utmost Importance for
them to understand this relation oi
sowing and rcaping, which is affixed
to our physical and moral nature.

BEDS AND BEDROOMS.

Beds and bedding need especial care;
on fine days leave your sleeping. room
windows open several hours, il posi-
Bile, and, if not too conspicuous, leave
your beds unmade, and let pillows and
mattresses air in the sun. Thorough
ly examine the bed-steads-- out
the Stats, which you probably will find
covered with DUST -(accumulated dust
will also be found on the Stats Of tho
spring beds). Wipe this of with hot
salt and water. Salt dissolved in a
very Title water, should be put on with
small paint brush, in all the corners
of the bcadstcads TO prevent vermin
from finding place. IT. by any
chance, they are already there, this
must be repeated as often as twice a
week, until they are exterminated.
Also, wipe the edges of the mattresses
we'll with cloth wrung out of salt and
water. You must meet this matter
promptly, and giveit your supervision,
ior, ii not attended TO at once, they
will get the better Of you and cause
yOn great annoyance.
Ifihere shall be any spots on your
mattresses,try spreading paste Of
starch, mixed with little cold water
let il remain until quite dry, then
brush of; # the spot still remains, put
a teaspoonful Of borax to pint Of cold
water, with little soap; enough to
make good suds. Scrub the spot with
it, using an old nail brush or small
scrubbing brush; afterward wiping
dry with q clean cloth.
We learned an art few years ago,
of a dear old lady, with whom we were
spending the Summer. She came into
the bright sitting-room one morning,
with pillows and ticks, and said she
was going to change the feathers from
one into the other. mot here" we
cried, starting up in alarm, aud with
visions of down and feathers flying all
over the room, over our clothes and
settling in our hair. But she said very
quietly, don't move, you won't know
II you don't look" But we did look,
and found that we did not know cv.
erything.
In each pillow-tick she had left an
opening in the side seam about five or
six inches long, and at the top lin the
middle), one about three inches long.
Taking pillow in her hand she shook
the feathers away from the side and
down into the middle Of the pillow,
keeping them therc with several pins,
while she ripped slit in the side just
as long as the one already in the new
one. These openings she now sewed
together--making q communication
between the two. Then she inserted
her hand into the space she had left In
the end seam, and we pinned Il closely
about her wrist, leaving no room for
the feathers 70 hy out. Taking the
pins out of tho pillow she drew the
feathers easily out Of ono into tho
other. When they were all out, she
carefully removed her hand and the
opening was sewed up. The seam be-
tween the two, as fast as ripped, was
pinned securely and afterward sewcd
up. The pins were taken out, the pillow
beaten into shape, and II was done.
This bit Of knowledge has been Of
. great usc to us let rs hope that II
will prove as valuable 70 you.

FEMALE ACCOMPLISHMENT - How
much in modern education, says nm cx.
change, Is calculated, If not intended,
rather to prepare our females to daz.
zlo in the circle Of fashion and the gay
party than TO shine in tho retirement
Of homo To polish the exterior by
whatarc called accomplishments seems
to no moro the object than to give q
solid substratum Of pisty, intelligence,
good sense, and social virtue. Never
was q subject less understood than cd.
ucation. TO store the memory with
facts, or to cultivate tho taste for mu.
sic, singing, drawing, languages, and
neodlcwork, Is the utimatum with
many. The use Of the intellect in the
way Of deep reflection, sound judg.
menl, accurate discrimination, is not
taught as II should be-; while the d.
rection of tho will, the cultivation oI
tho heart, and the formation Of the
character arc lamcntabIy, neglected.
We ask not tho sacrifice OF anything
that can add grace, and elegance, and
ornament 10 the feminine character
but wc do not want incorporated with
this more Of what ia masculine in
knowledge and wisdom.

HOME PoLrESEss.--A boy who is
polite.to his iathcr and mother is likely
TO bc polite to every one else.
A boy lacking polileness to his par.
cnts may have the semblance OF cour.
tesy 10 society, but is never truly po-
lite IN spirit, and is in danger, AS he
becomes familiar, OF betraying his real
want Of courtesy.
We are in danger Of living too much
for the outside world, for the impress
sion we make in society, covcting the
good opinion Of those who are in q
sense a part Of ourselves, and who will
continue to sustain and be interested
in US, Notwithstanding these defects Of
department and character.
We say TO every boy and to every
girl, cultivate the art of courtesy and
propriety at home--in tho sitting room
and the kitchen, as well as in tho par.
lor, and you will bc sure in other
places to deport yourself in becom-
ing and attractive manner.
When one has a pleasant smile and
graceful demeanor, II is q satisfaction
TO know that they are not put on, but
that they belong TO the character, and
are manifest at all times and under all
circumstances.

UNRECoGNIzED ROMANCE.

Now that the harvest is passed and
the Summer is ended and we are all
back in town again 1t is pleasant to
compare notes with each other as TO
the amatory incidents Of tho season
that has run it's course and is no more.
And there be few of us but that have
some scrap Of tender "reminiscences that
we may contributc--most times, alas
but too untenderly--to the common
fund for dull must be the eye and
scant the comprehension OF the man
or woman who fails TO mark how
blithely amidst Summer pleasurings
the pleasant game of love goes on. Yet
is il only by chance that the cleverest
OF us are led TO notice a stream of love
that dashes through the shadow at tho
Summer resorts stream full as
strong, as impetuous, as that which
surges and ripples and sparkles in the
sun the stream that is fed by the
gentle agony exuding from love bcwil-

FOUR OF THE BRIGANDs TAKEE.


Burglaries and sneak thefts heve been
so frequent lately in Greenville, Jersey
City, along the city lines of Bayonne and
Jersey City, that several policemen were
stalled to investigate the matter.
They have been steadily at work
investigating the cases for several
weeks, but it was only by the merest
chance that the thieves were discovered
by Officer Joseph Midmer. The roads
and avenues had hesn 50 closely watched
that the officer concluded the thieves
were concealed in Currie's Woo1s-a
long and wide stretch of uniInproved
land extending from Newark Bay to the
bank of Morris Canal. The officer care
fully walked around the woods and saw
near the Morris Canal bank smoke issu-
ing apparently from the earth through
crevlce in a huge rock. The officer re-
"A roof of cave. the presence of which
was not known to the police or the resi-
dents of Greenville. The entrance was
hidden, but Midmer found it and enter
ed. The cave was fitted up quite CON-
fortably and was large enough to accom-
moiate doz"n people. The occupants
were four tramps. lying about brightly
burning fire. The officer drew his re-
volver, and invited them to change their
quarters. They were taken to the police
precinct, where they were registered az
