 In a rural district of Forfarshire a young plowman once went courting on Saturday night. In vain he racked his brain for some interesting topic; he could call up no subject suitable for the occasion-not one sentence could he utter, and for two long hours he sat in silent despair. The girl herself was equally silent; she had no doubt remembered the teaching of the old Scotch song, f'Man maun be the first to speak, " and she sat patiently regarding him with demure surprise. At last John suddenly exclaimed, s'Jenny, there's feather on yer apron !" q wadna wondered if there had been twa,'' replied Jenny, '.for I've been sittin' aside goose a nicht."

On the contrary, she illustrated the sinfulness of the childs course by a series of woodcuts which made him jingle for week, and then insisted that he ahould beg his aunt's pardon. The child was equal to the emergency, and, going down on his knees to his aunt, said with many sobs, "Aunty, I'm awful sorry that you are an old fool-wil you forgive me ?"

To-day I wished to see some parties in Lockport, N. Y., and I will tell you how did. The train was late, and so I could stay there but exactly 21 min utes and make my other connections, for my tickets were all through and limited, so had to ''cut my garment according to my cloth" Taking hack told the driver my story, and you can guess the rest. I called on all the largest traders in the city, sold handsome lot of goods and took the train as I planned and had just twenty-two seconds to spare. But the smartest thing ever did was in Buff falo to. day. Learning that my largest cus- toner there was loaded with goods and pro- posed giving me no order I just turned right square around and offered to buy my former shipments to them at an advance of twenty five per cent on the prices of sixty days ago, and the effect was magic. l sold then and there in less than an hour the largest bill of ruffles I ever sold before in my life and did it all in good faith also, for the goods I sold them two months ago ara to-day just 25 per cent. higher than they were at that date. I speak of this to show how active it makes business when goods are going up in price. And now I wish to make statement that may be of use to some of your readers, and they can act upon it's advice or not, just as they choose. Goods are going up alto = dafr kn T1on1 Ira al hnvo par. They are sure to react and cause panic if this thing continues. That the actual de- mand for goods is great is true, and that in large quantities also, but the thing is to-day being overdone. I wrote you months ago, and long before any one would believe my statements that we were soon to have good times, and that what I said came about none can gainsay and now just as truly believe we are going as far the other way.

An Answer to Taxpayer 2 Editni. nf fho InIrpnrLr AMI, :.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER: The town of East Haven has and has had capable town officers, with both the ability and inclination to look after it's interests. If the ex-committee have failed to furnish the town satisfactory information upon any point, MT. Forbes, the very efficient First Selectman, will certainly look after it. And as rule, taxpayers expect town officers to look after matters of such general importance as excite the interest of half the tax-paying popuIa- ton.
 The town of East Haven did have an in vestigating committee who received for their services fair compensation. That commit tee said that certain item of school money had been honestly expended for school pur- poses. The committee believe they are able to prove that assertion, and what is more the Selectmen of the town believe it, or they would not have waited for Taxpayer" to usurp their duties.
 Any proper person will find the ex-com- mittee ready at all times to communicate any information in their possession, and as proper persons seek information by personal inter views no further notice will be taken of newspaper questions.

RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

Scribpers for March has for it's opening ar ticle very interesting illustrated paper de- scribing and depicting ''The Experiences of the Tile Club Afioat." MT. Schuyler givesthe second installment of his 'sPeter the Great and the illustrations which accompany his work are of great interest and value. E. P. Roe continues his illustrated small fruit arti- cles, raspberries being the subject this month. An illustrated sketch of s'Cham," the great French caricaturist, and his work gives some of the choicest specimens of the comments made by his pencil upon public affairs. There are additional installments of Mrs. Burnetts and MT. Cables serials, and 'Over Sunday in New Sharon" is at once short story and sketch. John Burroughs gives additional 'tNotes of Walker,'' Henry W. Raymond gives further extracts from his fathers diary, and Mrs. Helen Hunt Jackson follows up her exposure of the wrongs of the Indians with 8 trenchant paper upon ''The Wards of the United States Government" Col. Higginson and Miss Phelps are among the poetical con- tributors, and the editorial departments are well filled as usual.
 The leading article in the North American
 
 Black, and is entitled ''The Third Term," be- ing reply to ex-Senator Howe's paper on that subject in the Review for February. MT. Black holds that to elect General Grant to g third term of office in the presidential chair would be 6 violation of custom that is stronger than any laws constitutions what ever. Hon. E. W. -Stoughton follows Mir. Black, taking precisely the contrary view. A timely article by David A. Wells aims to prove that discriminating income tax is essentially Communism, and that this is specially true of an income tax that was levied in the United States by Acts of Congress in 1863 and suc- ceeding years. The fourth article is by Rev. Dr. Bellows, and treats of Civil Service Re form. Professor Simon Newcomb, in an ar ticle on "Our Political Dangers" calls atten- tion to the need of some non-political tribunal for the determination of contested elections.

Passing Away

To the Editor af the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 While passing through one of our beautiful streets the other day, noticed two funerals being held at houses within block of each other, and as gazed at the sad faces of those standing about, the thought struck me that truly, one by one we are passing away. Per haps but a few days since the deceased ones, who now lie cold and silent in death, were happy and we'll and the thought of an early departure from earth to ''that bourne from whence no traveller returns" had not entered their minds. But death, without warning perhaps, had claimed them as victims, and they were no more to earthly friends. It was solemn thought, and as I unused upon it another thought struck me. It was: Why live here life of selfshness, caring not for one another; listening not to the moans of the poor for sympathy and help unheeding everything save way to make and hoard up money paying no attention to the wants or feelings of anybody, but digging, scrimping, securing, laboring with brain and muscle for ''the almighty dollar? Would it not be Q better way to spend ones life trying to lend @ helping hand to brother mortal in distress; visiting the sick; caring for the orphans and living in way that ght make others hap py as well as oneself? Surely it would, and when death at last comes to claim you and bear you away to an unknown region, you could have for consolation that you had lived or tried to live towards your brother man SC that you should have nothing to make your deathbed pillow pillow of sorrow? man who lives this kind of life fears not when the end arrives. He is not hauntedby wrongs which he has committed on others; the death knell is sounding in his ears, but him smile as he thinks of the good deeds he has done. He dies poor, but he dies happy. He has gone at last, and nothing could he have carried with him. He leaves nothing behind him but good name and memory of good deeds by him performed, but he sleeps as sweetly and soundly. Nature causes the grass to grow as green upon his grave as though it were marked by stately monument, and the sun shines there as brightly. His kind actions and goodness never die. The memory of such a man lives evermore.
 Let us so live toward each other that when we sleep the sleep of death, we shall leave be- hind us what can never be obliterated by time,-a good name and record of kindness toward all mankind.
