Weary Women.

Nothing is more reprebensible and
thoroughly wrong than the idea that a
woman fulils her duty by doing an
amount of work that is far beyond her
strength. She not only does not fulfil her
duty, but she most signally fails in it. and
the failure is truly deplorable. There
can be no sadder sight than that of q
broken down, over worked wife and
mother-a woman who is tired all of her
life through. If the work of the house
hold cannot be accomplished by order,
system and moderate work, without the
necessity of wearying, heart t.breaking toll
toll that is never ended and never be-
gun, without making life a treadmill
of labor, then for the sake of humanity
let the work 60. Better to live in the
midst of disorder than that order should
be purchased at so high price-the cost
of health, strength, happiness, all that
makes existence endurable.
The woman that spends her life in un-
necessary labor is, by this very labor,
untitled for the highest duties She
should be the haven of rest to which both
husband and children turn for peace and
refreshment. She should be the careful,
intelligent adviser and guide of the one,
the tender confdant and helpmate of the
other. How is it possible for woman
exhausted in body, as a natural conse.
quence in mind also, to perform
either ofthese Offices? No. it is not i'm
possible. The constant strain is too great.
nature gives way to it. She loses health
and spirits and hopefulness, and more
than all, her youth, the last thing wo-
man should allow to slip from her
for, no matter how old she is in years,
she should be young in heart and feeling,
for the youth of age is sometimes more
attractive than youth itself.
To the overworked woman this green
old age is out of the question; old age
comes on her, sere and yellow, before its
time. Her disposition is ruined, her
temper is soured, her very nature is
changed by the burden which, too heavy
to carry, is dragged about as long as
wearied feet and tired hands can do their
part. Even her affections are blunted,
and she becomes merely machine-a
woman without the time to be womanly,
q mother without the time to train and
guide her children as only a mother can,
a wife without the time to sympathize
with and cheer her husband, a woman so
over worked during the day that when
night comes her sole thought and most
intense longing is for the rest and sleep
that very probably will not come; but
even if it should, that she is too tired to
enjoy. Better by far let everything 60
unfinished to live as bestshe can, than to
entail on herself and family the curse of
overwork.-Te Housekeeper.

- The alarming statement is now
made, on the authority of a New York
physician of more than forty years
practice, that for the first time in the
history of that city true spotted typhus
fever, which only originates where great
filth abounds, has made its appearance
without being traced to Importation in
the shape of ship fever. This is an an-
nouncement which is we'll calculated to
intensity the excitement regarding the
terrible filth of tho streets of the ME.

inalienable right of State to secede from
the Union. They had never been taught,
as we had, from pulpit, press, and plat.
form, to spell nation with big N.
But whatever may have been the case
in earlier years, sober second thought has
softened either them or us-or both, per-
haps; so that we can agree to "press for

hands clasped in loving sympathy. 1t
had been said, "You must not speak for
the colored people," but in almost every
city we have done go, with the free con.
sent of the Southern friends under whose
auspices we came. 1t is true that social
ostracism of the noble men and women
who came South to teach and preach to
the freedmen is no. yet at an end; but
its features are greatly modified, and the
larger towns and more enlightened of
those "to the manner born" exhibit least
of this narrow spirit and character.

Either run your town up with a vim,
or just get up and leave it. One or two
things should be done, push things; find
means or way to put some goahead in
to the business; run the town for all there
is in it; get steam up and keep it up, or
else quit the whole thing. Vamoosc the
the ranch, slide out and let nature have
her own way. Do you want trade? Bid
for it. Do you want business men to
come to town? Encourage those who do
come? Do you want to have prosper
Gus town where people can come disposed
to make it their home? Then do away
with, bury from sight, all local difference,
all jealousy, all spite, work no more for
few individuals, but all work together for
a common prosperity, and for mutual
benefit. Wake up, rub your eyesf roll up
your sleeves, and 60 to work. Don't go
to fear and trembling, but take it for
granted that work will tell Leave results
to themselves, borrow no trouble, but all
unite and make the biggist kind of try.
