The Girl of the Period.

She has nothing else to do, poor
girl, but dress II takes two-thirds
of her time. The rest is devoted
to shopping, sleep and company.
There's not a trace of wear or neg
lect about her from the tips of her
heels TO the ends of that last new
ostrich feather It's all spick and
span new, glossy bright and jus;
out of the band boxes. 1t costs pa
a good round sum yearly. There
isn't an hour of the day but some
portion of that dless demands attea
ton. Monday she was looking al
spring materials; Tuesday, the same;
Wednesday was the day of final Sc
lection; Thursday she hunted foT
the trimmings; Friday she bought
them, AID the days mission for
Saturday was with the dressmaker.
There are two days more of trying
on and fitting, at least. Recolleet
this is but one article of that fear
fuI, wonderful and admirable make
I'D. There are shoes, corsets, bon
nets, hats and gloves all the time
on the stocks of being looked after
as built by contract.

Advice to those Who Owe.

Make a full estimate of all you
owe, and of all that is owing to you
Reduce the same to note. AS fast
as you collect pay over to those you
owe. If you cannot renew your
note every year, get the best secu-
rity YOU can. Go to business dill
gently and be Industrious; waste
no idle moments, be very economi-
cal in all things, discard all pride,
be faithful in your duty to God by
regular and hearty prayer morning
and night; attend church aid meet
ing regular every Sunday, and do
unto all men as you would they
should do unto you. If you are too
needy in circumstances to give to
the poor, do whatever else in your
power cheerfully, but If you can,
help the poor and unfortunate. Pur-
sue this course diligently and sin
cerely for seven years, and ii you
are not happy, comfortable and in
dependent in your circumstances
come to me and l will pay your
debts.-Ben Franklin.

Female Society.

You know my opinion of female
society. Without it we should de-
generate into brutes> This obser
walton applies with tenfold force to
Young men and those who are in
the prime of manhood. For after
certain time of life, the literary
man may make a shift "a poor one
l grant), to do without the society
of ladies. To young man moth
ing is so important as a spirit of
devotion next to his Creator, to
some amiable woman, whose image
may occupy his heart and serve TO
guard it from pollution,.be it on
both sides A man ought TO choose
his wife as Mrs. Primrose did her
wedding gown, for qualities that
wear we'll" One thing, at least, is
true, that il ma.rimony has its
cares, celibacy has no pleasures. A
Newton or a mere scholar may find
employment in study; a man OF
literary taste can receive in books
powerful auxiliary: but man must
have a bosom friend and children
round him to support the 6reariness
of old age

Our Young People
MADE UP FROM THE BEST CLIPPINGS.
Getting Money.

The most unfortunate day in the
career of any young man is the day
ON which he fancies there is some
better way to make money than to
earn it; for from that feeling spring
the many eXtravagant and visiona
ry schemes which are INDUCED in
for the purpose of gaining u liveli
hood without labor. When a young
man becomes thoroughly infected
with this feeling. he is ready to
adopt any means for the accom-
plishmeht OF his object; and if
frustrated and he is foiled in his eff
forts upon the very crest of the
wave which he has already mount
ed, and in full view, is the tempta-
ton TO crime, to shield him from
disgrace which he thinks must in
evitabiy follow in the wake of de-
feat. To those he yields, and the
first thing he realizes is to find
himself the violater of the law, a
criminal in the eyes of the law, q
criminal in the eyes of the commu-
nifty, and an inmate of the prison,
waiting for trial, all brought about
for the want OF little manly firm
ness in the outset of life to prompt
him to choose an avocatiOn in life
where the penny earned would
bring with it its sure reward Then
let our young men spurn the idea
of obtaining money without rem
dering an equivalent; let them be
willing and ready to occupy posi-
tions in. lie which will give them
the best possible opportunity to de
velop their natural talent, and do
good 10 others while helping them
selves. In this way We may have
nation of noble men, which shall be
source of profit and pleasure to US,
and an oject of wonder and admi
ration to the world.

Farm and Home.
AND USEFUL REFORMATION.
The Successful Farmers.

Working farmers are the success
ful ones now. There is no calling
or business or profession but that
calls for work as well as watching.
The merchant, the physician, the
lawyer, every man must take an in
terest in his own business, and far
mers are no exception. Leaving
farms to an .overseer or drivers has
played" No man will go on the
farm and have the work as well
done as the owner himself. His
eyes should supervise everything
the feeding and watching of stock /;
the taking care of tools and ma
chinery; the sharpening of plows,
repairing of fences, in fact, all mat
ters pertaining To the farm, must
be looked after by him His pro
fits are regulated by the closeness
with which he watches details,
takes interest in them and pays at
ter ton to them.
Now at the beginning of the sea-
son all farm implements should be
pun III lhOpCi OOHuittOH AOA WOth /,
plows should be made sharp, har-
ness, single trees, gates, fences. in
fact everything should he put in
order. If all this has been attend
ed to and there is no blowing or
other farm work or land, clean up
your yard and lot, burn up all old,
useless worm eaten tools and put
away the iron. If corn has not
been planted. prepare the land as
soon as possible, and select your
seed. Watch everything closely,
read what is gong on all over the
country, as well as the columns de-
voted to your interest, and learn
from the experience of others, as
well as from yourself, how to be
prudent and prosperous.

The Art journal believes that
American women are degenerating.
The woman who lives next door
furnished sad example of this
fact yesterday. She got up at four
o'clock and built two fires, hauled
four hods of coal from the ce. lar,
did weeks washing for a family Of
six, before seven O'Clock; prepared
the morning meal, impartially licked
three small children and got them
ready for school, potted several
choice plants, let black patch
over the cupola of her husbands
pants, read four chapters of con
tinued story, visited a neighbor and
learned TO cut hc~ne y cloak in the
latest style, cooked boiled dinner
and chased book agent ont of the
yard with n broom, all before twelve.
The American woman is indeed de-
generating.

A farmer at Glenburn, Maine,
purchased some supplies in Bangor,
among which was a pint of whisky.
To avoid breakage, he placed tie
bottle in box Of rice, but found on
reaching home that the bottle was
broken and the rice saturated. He
threw the rice behind his barn,
and big turkey soon paid his re-
spects to it. In due time the tur-
key became dead drunk, and was
found in that condition by the
farmer, who thought that disease or
poison had killed him. The farm
er would not eat it himself, but
plucked him for market and left
him in the stable. The next morn
ing he found the berofs gubbler
shivering naked on his roost, and
looking on him with reproachful
ewes.
