all who hear the impatient word give
the angry answer, for many choose to
suffer in silence; but every such word
makes somebody's heart ache and, as
a rule, it is somebody whom we love
and would do anything for, except to
keep back the unkind, sarcastic word.
Then do not let us make ourselves and
others miserable by being fretful at

/, A SLOvENLY BREAKFAsT-TABLE.
The majority Of people do not bring
their brightest face and mood to the
first meal of the day ). and trifle jars
them sadly. The house-mistress may
herself be out Of tune. She feels that
life is burden, the hopes Of her youth
are q failure, and more often her
thoughts are staying in gloomy retro
spection than occupied in preparing
tidy, wholesome breakfast. The re-
mains of yesterdays food are indiffer-
emily gathered and placed on a
smouldering or furious fire, to dry OF
burn, as circumstances may dictate.
A hastily arranged table is prepared,
with the dishes scattered heller
SHELTER upon it, with generally half a
dozen necessary articles omitted, that
some member of the family must rise
and procure when needed. Then the
family is called to breakfast. They,
too, we'll knowing the style and bill of
fare, loiter and delay till the very last
grace of patience is exhausted gather
around in sullen silence or with angry
alteration, and partake sparingly of
such articles as may be necessary to
sustain nature. The husband goes to
his labor or business, thankful for the
refuge offered by Office or factory.
The children are peevish and I'M
manageable, often downright quarrel
some for the day-for broken day is
seldom mended. But worse than all,
the poor mother takes up again her
burden of employments, with that
failing strength and utter giving va y
Of natural spirits that make woeful
days for her children, whom she loves
better than life, for she is giving her
life in the care of them, but for whom
the sunshine of neither motherly love
nor patience beams that day. And so
whole day is spoiled by that ill-pre-
pared, unwholesome break fast.
AN EVERYDAY ROMANCE.-No
long ago, an Englishman occupying a
good social position in New York,
died suddenly in his bachelor lodgings.
and few months afterward a rosy
IrishwOman claimed his estate for her.
self and children. After some litiga-
ton, her claim was allowed, and she
formally assumed his name and for
tune as his widow. In the case the
woman knew her husband only under
his middle name, and when she heard
of his death Under his full name, was
entirely ignorant of how nearly it
concerned her. She had supposed
him to be travelling agent, and had
become so accustomed to his long
absence, that she had not became
alarmed nor searched for him until
some time after his death. In this
case the motive was obvious. He
was educated, in society, courted and
flattered. She was ignorant, awkward,
and poor. The pretty face would not
her pleasant domestic ways charm
away her want Of acquaintance with
etiquette. She satisfied him in pri-
vate life; but he had no desire to
acknowledge her to the world; so he
simply put himself on Der social
level, kept her existence a secret
from his friends, his name from her,
and so successfully carried out his
cowardly game. lie had, without
question, lived two distinct lives.
Secretary WINDOWS Policy.
The New York Herald gives this as
the policy with which Secretary Win
dom has been most fayorab1y i'm
pressed by his interviews with the
New York bankers: The S and 6 per
cent. bonds now held by the banks are
to be extended until congress meets,
at the rate of 8, $50 or 81 per cent,
the rate of interest to be decided on
after further consideration. The
banks now hold nearly $4,000. 600
of 6's, and $l6O,000,00O of SIS
This plan would therefore take
care Of over 5000, 100000 of bonds
temporarily at a low rate Of interest.
AS to the AVS still to be issued un-
der the funding bill, they amount, as
is well known, to $l04, 000,0 In dis
posing Of these it is thought that the
secretary would probably get a rate
which would be equivalent to the
buyers to $40 per cent There would
be, say, $100,000,000 from the sinking
fund and surplus revenue with which
to redeem bonds. This would make
in all $500, 100000 of bonds taken care
of. The important point in this plan
is the proposition to arrange with
the banks that the SIS and 6's which
they hold now shall be continued by
agreement at the low rate of from to
31s per cent. until congress passes a
funding bill. Of course this plan
could be extended to the general
public, who are holders of SIS and 6's
also, by stamping such bonds with
the agreement, if the treasury
department was prepared to
force such holders to the. set terms of
the agreement by threatening them to
call in their bonds if they refused.
The secretary's plan of operations
will probably be made public imme-
diately. 1t is believed in infuen-
tlal quarters that he gives every pro-
mise of pursuing a conservative
course, but one that will tend to make
the money market easy. The bull
speculation in As and AVS is the
only thing which seems to be appre-
