It has been resolved by the municipality of Rome that the venerable Ghetto, the we'll known Jewish quarter, shall be levelled with the ground, in order that number of stately houses may be erected upon it's site. The Ghetto has long been physical as well as historical reproach in the Italian capital, and it's demolition is one of the many modern re- forms and improvements upon which its mu- nicipal rulers may unreservedly be congratu- lated.

What shall Do with Our Dau ah.
 

 From the New York Graphic.l l Don't teach them self-relianee. It is so much easier for them to rely on some one | else.
 | Don't let them learn how to make bread. Their beau might think they were not well ! bred.
 Don't allow them to learn to make shirts. It is better they should not know. Then, when they are married, their husbands can work | twenty hours day to get money with which l to buy ready made ones, while they knit red dogs.
 Above all things, do not fail to teach them how to wear false hair, and if your daughter objects to bang her hair, bang her over the head.
 Do not allow them to learn how to make their own dresses. It is fashionable to have | a dress maker. Teach them that 8 dollar is only 100 cents and does not amount to much. Do not let them learn how to cook. Should they understand the cuisine art and know what is needed in 8 family, the servant could not supply all her relatives with edibles. Teach them to darn their neighbors, but not stockings. Don't allow them to learn how to sew on buttons. They might get needles in their fingers. Teach them to regard the money and not the morals of their suitors. Teach them none of the mysteries of the kitchen. the dining room and the parlor. Teach them that the more one lives beyond his income the more he will save. Urge them to go with intemperate young men It is convenient to have drunken husband, as the wife is enabled to take pin money from his pocket while he is taking drunken snooze
 Finally, teach them that God, who made them, is an old fogy, and made them in His image, which necessitates tight lacing

How to Increase Your Income.

Just at this season of the year there are,
among our readers, those looking for employ
ment for the next six month";. Wehave lately
received from l.. E. Brown 81 Co., the we'll
known manufacturers of specialties for agents
to handle, request to put them in communal
cation with one or more suitable persons in
this locality to act as agents in introducing
several of their patent household articles to
this community, aud after careful considera-
ton, We take this method to comply with their
request The firm are manufacturers OF q
large number of household articles which they
introduce to the public by means of agents,
having as many as 1000 persons in their en-
ploy. The particular articles which they seek
here, at this time, are: Browns Peerless Sift-
or, generally acknowledged to be the best in
the world and of which nearly one million were
sold during the last year; the Kitchen Queen,
the latest and best invention in Coal Oil
Lamps, and the only absolutely Safe Lamp
made; the Centennial Cake and Bake Pan, an
article winch has q national reputation and Is
the delight of every housekeeper; the hall
Minute Egg Beaten. which always sells at sight;
of JAMES A. GARFIELD, with memorial
frame, the best selling article ever put into
the hands of an agent, the best of all the por-
traits, chromos or steel engravings that have
been offered. 1t is q truer likeness OF the
martyred hero than any we have ever seen
before, and its price brings it within the reach
OF all. For this county, Messrs. Brown & Co
desire as many agents as can work advantage
ously. Any smart, intelligent lady or gentle.

A correspondent says sit pays to take the
newspapers" and thus goes on to prove his
assertion: ''Some papers are not OF much &C
count as to appearance, but never took one
that did not pay me, in some way more than
l paid for it. One time an old friend started
little paper away down in Southwestern
Georgia and sent it to me, and l subscribed
just to encourage him, and after while it
published a notice that an administrator had
an order to sell several lots at public cutlery,
and one of the lots was in my county. So l
inquired about the lot, and wrote my friend
to attend the sale and run 1t up to fifty dol
lars. He did SO. and bid me OF the lot for
thirty-two dollars; and sold it, in month.
to man 1t joined for q hundred, and so /
made sixty eight dollars clear by taking that
paper. My father told me that when he was
young man he saw notice that school
teacher was wanted away off in another coun-
ty, and he went there and got the situation,
and little girl was sent to him, and after 3
while she grew up mighty sweet and pretty,
and he fell In love with her and married her
now, IL he hadn't taken that paper, what do
you reckon would have become of me?
Wouldn't have been some other fellow, or
may be not at all"

The conductor had passed through (Which
was more than he would allow any one else to
do without the requisite pass), punching peo-
pie into wakefulness in order that he might
punch their tickets.
The train boy had filed the passengers

There is hasty tbrusting of watches

HATTIE was the pet Of her family, the old
est and the darling; your chair is vacant,
your place at the table, your sweet and pratt
thing tongue at their freside at night are
missed. 1t is hard to give you up, Hattie, in
the bud of life, a sweet and tender flower.
But alas! how changed that lovely flower
that bloomed to cheer our hearts. How soon
we are called to part: but God knows best,
and your happiness is now complete. And
though it is hard trial to give you up, we
would not call you back, Hattie, and rob you
of the joys that are now yours. You were too
sweet for this world with its troubles.
ALI that's bright must fade,
The brightest yet the fieetest:
All that's sweet was made
But to be lost when sweetest.
