The Society of Women.

One of the great benefits a young man
may derive from woman,s society is that
he is bound to be respectful to them. The
habit is of great good to moral young men,
depend upon it. Our education makes of
us the most eminently selfish men in the
world We fight for ourselves; We cut the
best slice out of the joint at the club din
ner for ourselves; we yawn for ourselves
and light our pipes, and say we won't go
out; We prefer ourselves and our ease; and
the greatest good that comes to man from
woman's society is that be has to think OF
somebody besides himself-somebody to
whom he is constantly bound to be atten-
tive and respectful.
/ don't want my dear Bob to associate
with those of the other sex whom he does
not and cannot respect; that is worse than
billiards. worse than smoking selAshly al

A Bout Rubber Boots.

Undue competition between manufactu-
reis has led to an extent of adulteration
and cheapening of material never before
known in the business Crude rubber has
the quality of absorbing or of becoming
incorporated with a very large quantity of
cheap and bulky substances, like amp
black, chalk, &C., which cannot be detected
by the uninitiated, and which impair the
durability OF the goods. People call for
low priced goods not rejecting that low
prices always mean low quality. The re-
suit is, they vast money on wild cat
Rubber Boots, when an extra dollar or tive
would buy them a pair which will wear to
their utmost satisfaction a whole season
and more. The ''95" per cent. booot, de-
scribed in another column, is meant to re-
form this abuse, and is worth the inspee-

Keep Busy.

In no place in our columes can We better
give this advice than here. Men, says DR.
Hall, who have half dozen irons in the f.
re, are not the ones who 60 crazy. 1t is
the man of voluntary or compelled leisure
who mopes, and pines, and thinks himself
into the mad-house OF the grave Motion
is all natures law. Action is mans saliva
tino, physical and mental. And yet nine
of ten are wistfully looking forward to the
coveted hour when they shall have leisure
to do nothing or something only if they
feel like 1.-THE very siren that has luret

That man who is scrupulosly polite and
respectful to all women in public, but ha.
bitually saves corse manners and vulgar
language for els own wife and daughters,
is no gentleman. He is only an imposter.
The young msn who oils his hair, puts
sweet odors upon his pocket handkerchief,
and bows with charming elegance to Miss
Arabella Spriggins and her lady friends,
and goes home to sneer at his mother, dis
obey her wishes, and treat her with famil-
liar discourtesy, is a pinchback imitation
onle of a gentleman. Geneine good man
ners and genteel breeding should begiu at
home. As rule the men in community
who are the most trusted are the best men
at home. When man opens his front
gate, only to meet his wife's face at the
door radiant with pleasure, and hear the
shout from the eager children Papa is
coming" it is safe as a rule to lend that
man money. He is honest and will repay
if he can.

Be Honorable.

Boys and young men sometimes start out
in life with the idea that ones success de-
pends on sharpness and chinchanery. They
imagine if man is able always to "get
the best of a bargain" no matter by what
deceit and meanness he carries his point,
thai his prosperity is assured. This is a
great mistake. Dnduring prosperity can
not be founded on cunning and dishonesty
The tricky and deceitful man is sure to
fall victim, sooner OF later, to the influ-
ences which are forever working against
him. His house is built upon she sand
and its foundation will be certain to give
away. Young people cannot give these
truths too much weight The future OF
that young man is safe who eschews every
shape of double-dealing, and lays the foun
dation of hia career in the enduring prin
ciplet of everlasting truth.

But never stop to think
How greater was the sacrifice

And after they have said it,

With substitutes enrolled,
And spent our time and loaned our cash
At six per cent in gold.
We rallied round the contract fat
And furnished the supplief:
They only rallied round the flag
With noisy battle cries.
