Advice to Careless Girls.

Y New York Herald.
: The tender and general feeling of
sympathy for the suicide of Lavinia
Roach will rapidly abate now that
the girls history is known. She
seems to have started in life with
unusually good prospects, for though
humbly born and bred, she was so
pleasing in face and manner rs to
excite the kindly interest of her bet
tiers. Had she maintained the self
control which is within the power of
every woman, she might today be
happy wife instead of a loathsome
corpse. She preferred to have
"gOod time'-an expression not
uncommon among girls, and not
necessarily of a bad meaning, but
though the beginning of said good
times are never with bad intent, the
end is almost universally disgrace
full. To keep company with men
apparently above their own station,
men who dress well, have money,
and call themselves gentlemen-is
by such girls held to be delightful
honor, but not particle of honor
or respect does it ever bring them
from their male companions What
they usually get is shame, disgrace,
and a terrible wounding of affec-
tons, really pure, that may have
been honestly simulated under
promises foolishly believed. Some
OF these women have character
enough to begin a new life, but the
streets of any large city after night
fall show what becomes of most of
them. Perhaps the womanly incen-
tive to love some one unselfshly
may be as strong in them as it ever
was, but who will accept their lovei
The story of Livinia Roach, pretty
and ladylike to the day of her death,
gives sufficient answer. If Young
women would extract the greatest
possible happiness out of life, let
them never exchange the pleasures
Of their own social circle, humdrum
though they may be, for the society
Of bright young men who can
give them suppers and invite them
to balls, drives and excursions.
Men whose intentions are honorable
WOO girls at their homes, not by
stealth and in out-of-the-way places.

What! you do not know? Miss
Sterne was drowned yesterday, while

though she had M fear. She uttered

when the life-rope was thrown her

upon her lips for him?
For her the struggle was over. What
wonder that she had smiled as she felt
the waters, more merciful than man,
wrapping her in their embrace? What
wonder that she cared not to grasp the
rope which should snatch her back into
the old agony Of living?
On his knees before the equisite
form, Vaughn Dare wrestled with his
anguish. All, they both had drifted
with the tide-she into the still ocean
of eternity, he into the bitter turmoil
of the might-have-been. Drifted-

We have made a mistake. Forgive
me that my eyes have just opened to it,
and that l ask you to release me from
my bonds. l thought l loved you; but
ome do not always know their own
hearts. | send you back your ring,
your letters. Send me back my broken
pledge, and your forgiveness"
This was the letter, from his afianc-
ed, Vaughn Dare found waiting him in
his room, on his return to the city.

moment of his need-this, which raised
the weight from his chest, and load

wuman, he now knew that he had ever

1t would lie a little difficult, perhaps,
to gain her forgiveness-to win anew
her trust; but with such an end, and
the knowledge that she loved him, he
could not fail.
Why was it, then that on the boat,
returning, sleep forsook him? In the
morning, he would find her sitting, per-
haps where he had first seen her. He
could fancy the naughty look of incred-
ulity on the beautiful face as he APP
preached, only to see it soften and die
out under the eloquent passion of his
words.

new sense of his freedom, he dared
avow to his own soul how well.

EDUCATIONAL.

Being more strongly than ever
impressed with the importance of
our schools, after pleasant after
moons visit to them, in company
with friend, we were constrained
to say few words in this way.
We were much pleased with the or
der and evident interest of both
teachers and pupils. \ glow of
enthusiasm filed our hearts as We
looked upon tho many happy faces
and we asked ourselves, do We rs
parents and citizens realize the
great work our evidently efficient
corps y teachers are doing for us ?
Can such work be estimated by
what We pay them? Are they not
really making the future of our
country as we'll rs that Of each and
every family. And would it not
he pleasant rs well rs just 70 take
moro interest in them and cheer
on by our presence now and then,
and Il few words to the children to
let them know that others besides
their teachers are watching their
progress. Our teachers should not
feel that they are pilgrims and
strangers among us, but fellow
citizens, and Of the household Of
faith IN the hope of the future of
our boys and girls. We would not
visit the schools to hinder and crit
icise, but rs learners ourselves with
the desire 10 cheer others up the
ladder Of learning, and pcrchance
by n word fifty spoken induce them
while young to look farther upward
to the starry sphere Of goodness

ject, II am the light of the world" the
learned and eloquent divine portrayed
the effects Of this light in building
hospitals; in establishing educational
institutions; in breaking down insti,

fishing constitutional government; in
sowing throughout the earth the
seeds of human equality; in com.
batting the evils of human warfare
in the general diffusion Of knowledge
in drawing together the nations in q
more common homogeniety through

impulse of common brotherhood, as
yehemenntly opposed to the lawless
RIGHTEOUSNESS of nihilism and com.
munism us to the mental or physical
enslavement Of man to man.
