SAvING.-A saving woman at the
head of a family is the veTy best
savings bank established. The idea
of saving is pleasant one and if
the women imbibed it at once, they
could cultivate it and adhere to it /;
and thus, when they ATE not aware
of it; tbey would be laying the
foundation of a competent security
in a stormy time, and shelter 10 a
rainy day. The best way to COM
prehend it is to keep an account of
all current expenses. Whether FIVE
hundred or FIVE thousand are ex-
pended annually, there is a chance
TO save something if the effort is
made. Let the housewife take the
idea, act upon it, and she will save
something where she thought it i'm
possible. This is duty, yet not a
sordid avarice, but an obligation
that rests upon women as we'll as
men.

WHAT ARE WILD OATS.

Wild oats are certain wild, way.

life of the young man. a general
recklessness characterizes sowing
wild oats. Profanity the familiar
language of vice, scOffiog at sacred
things, irreverepce, defiant indlt.
ference to virtuous Conduct, is call
ed sowing wild oats. Intimacy with
fast company, late hours, all night
debauches, is called sowing wild
oats Frequenling billiard balls,
gambling rooms, drinking saloons, IS
called sowing wild oats. An honor
able man will do only honorable
things, an honest man honest things,
a pure man pure things, good man

the msn who does wicked things is
a wicked man. ANY young man must
wear that trade mark VINO sows wild
oats. Wild oats must be harvested,
and the terrible fact meets US that
the majority Of young men never
get over the sowing of wild oats.
And those who do reform have sui
fered irreparable injury. Look at
the harvest ssnitariIy. Good health
is fortune. See how men seek to
recover it when lost, traversing
oceans and continents, seeking the
tropic aud cool mountains, drawing
on medical science and impoverish
ing all pharmacy. ProA'gacy of
health is enormous folly. Often
there ia no place for repentance,
though it be sought with tears. But
ali sins labelled wild oats" are van>
dals that destroy public health, they
are grave diggers. Wild oats are
the only crop that grow up by gas

Before the electoral vote for President

be found and declared without uncertain
ty. and fears Of trouble and revolution
Fortunately we have escaped thus far

result of Presidential elections. but al
every recurring election we are made to
feel and understand very plainly that we
need some better mode than we now have

Illinois appears to he a hard State for
democratic newspapers. The Chicago
Inter Ocean says The Springfield Daily
Register. the democratic organ of Illinois.
is for sale at auction to the highest bidder.
II is the oldest democratic paper in the
State. and its financial experience proves
the fact to which The Inter-Ocean has
often called attention. that the democratic
party does not feel the need of education
that it does not keep progress with events,
and has learned nothing since Andrew
Jackson died. AS Emery Storrs said :;
1T is donkey without pride of ancestry
or hope of posierity.' A party that casts
nearly 500. 600 votes in Illinois should be
expected to support one medium Of public
intelligence. The Newspaper Directory
shows that every interest. mercantile. me-
chanical, professional, religious and po-
litical in Illinois. has its State organ,
and nearly all of them prosper. except
that published tor the democratic party.
John NJ. Palmer was the last man who
attempted to make the democratic party
of Illinois read a newspaper. and now he
has given it up as ahopeless undertaking
Republican newspapers. on the other
hand, are prosperous, and The Inter
Ocean to-day has alone rs many readers
