Young Men.

Anybody who wishes to may be-
come a gentleman. He will not
form a habit of telling smutty or
vulgar stories. He will always be
tidy in dress. He will be careful
not to offend persons; will keep his
face clean. He will never be loud
mouthed or overbearing to his in
feriors. This trait of character al
ways marks the snob egotist. Lie
will never lift his voice in a small
room when talking to men, as
though he were in field driving
oxen. He will never speak so as to
wound or pain the heart of the per.
son who is under him. He will
never speak Of his superior family
connections or give those he
is with to understand he is of
more consequence than they. lie
will never pry into the family affairs
of any other person, nor NEEDLE
himself with the affairs another
person should attend to-. He will
never try to bully OF beat his way,
nor assume IL superiority that is..en.
tirely lost the moment it is boosted
of. The gentleman always has
friends, even underadverse circum-
stances, because he deserves them.
The success of the true gentleman
is always lasting.-OhiO Chronicle.

Home After Business Hours.


The road along which the man
of business travels in pursuit OF
competence or wealth is not a mac.
adamzed one, nor does it ordinari-
ly lead through pleasant scenes
and BY well-springs ofdelight. On
the contrary, it is a rough aud rag
ged path, beset with "wait-a-bit"
thorns and full of pitfalls, which
can only be avoided by the watch
ful care of circumspection. After
every days journey over this worse
than rough turnpike road, the way
farer needs something more than
rest he requires solace; and he
deserves it. He is weary of the
dull prose of life; and athirst for
the poetry. Happy is the business
man who can find that solaced and
that poetry at home. Warm greet.
ings from loving hearts, fond
glances from bright eyes, the well
come shouts of children, the many
thousand little arrangements for
our comfort and enjoyment that
silently tell OF thoughtful and ex.'
pectant love, the gentle minlstra-
ton that disencumber us into an
old and easy seat before we are
aware of it; these and like tokens
of affections and sympathy COZ s.itu'e
the poetry which reconcilpS MS tn
the phase of lite. Think of this,
We wives and daughters of business
men! Think OF the tolls, the ankle
ty, the notifications, and wear
that fathers undergo to secure for
you comfortable homes; and CON-
pensate then for their trials by
making them happy by their own
ireside.

Watering Horses.

There is q great diversity of opinion as to
how often horses should be watereh during a
day, whether in summer or in winter. We
have an article now before Us OF writer Of
some distinction as an agricu'turist who adj
vocates frequent watering Of work horses. as
O reneWer Of the rigor Of the animals. We
cannot agree with him. We think both man
and beast are generally @atcrcd too Much
Men and horses at hard work in warm
weather pcrspire just in proportion to the
quantity OF fluids taken in the stomach.
Frequent drinking in hot weather according
to our experience, emasculates instead OF re-
freshes. Some years ago, being o. Cape
May, in driving out in one of the tt1nd-
coaches Of the place, on very hot day. we
asked the driver how it was that his horses
rerspired little. while the horses of pri,
Vate carriages. going at slower speed, were
covered with fam. He replied that he
watered his horses three times day only,
though he sponced their mouths frequently;
while the private drivers watered their
horses whenever they stopped. He said and
il seemed TO us very sensible. that the fire.
auent watering Of horses effected no good
purpose, while it made them very uncom for
table and lethargic. Horses. no matter what
their work was. did not need watering often
er than three tines day. Our own expe-
rience with horses all our life is to tbs same
effect GeTnln1tcrn 7[lryr0DA

They Will give Der lost youth back.
