An Englishman named George Bailey
was the pioneer in printing railroad
tickets by wholesale. He began busi-
ness in Buffalo in 1869. and, making it
a specially. soon secured the patronage
Of nearly every railroad in his section.
He employed men Of wide experience in
mixing the d~isagreeable colors and ar
ranging the in-suited type; he made
honesty a passport to employment in
his establishment; guaranteed that none
Of the tickets would be stolen, and in
sured the railroad companies against
all possible losses by speculations while
the tickets were still in his hands. The
result was that he was extraordinarily
successful, and the house in Buffalo is
now looked upon as the greatest of its
kind in the country.

What They ought 10 Lean.

Nothing Is mor painful 70 one who
Knows what mothers ought TO do for
their children, or wives Tor their hus-
bands, than TO see the idleness Of young
women who are compelled 70 work foi
q living, and 10 see how empty-headed
they are. This may seem small mat
ter in itself, but the moment a woman
is married she has 10 learn TO be inter
esting in her home TO her husband, and
as soon as she Is q mother the training
of her children is the foremost duty of
the hour. In these two spheres of life,
which are essentially the goal of q
woman's existence. everything depends
upon what the wife and mother brings
TO her several positions. everything for
her OWE, her husbands and her child
ren's happiness. Women are perpet-
ually losing their husbands because
they rely upon eyanescent personal
charms to uphold affection. but the
surest way TO provide against the de-
cay Of the early enthusiasm of married
life is to cultivate those mental and
moral qualities which make women al
ways charming and attractive.
Nothing Is surer 10 do this. aside
from personal manners, than the i'm
provement Of ones mind. the growth
Of the literary tastes, the interest Of
what imports new and wholesome at
fractions into ones home. 1t may be
the microscope, or French or German
translation. or botany. or English liter
AZURE. or history. or music; but. what
ever il Is, the stimulus of knowing one
thing thoroughly Is worth immensely
more than the knowledge itself. be-
cause it gives one the power to know
more and TO enjoy more. These studies.
even in themselves, are refining, but,
pursued in the general atmosphere Of
home. they are more than simply re-
filming; they are agencies by which the
spirit Of home Is chastened, made NOR
nj. even made religious. Religion in
ones home Is best when It Is least in
sisted upon, when its life is the uncon-
scious poetry of the household, when il
seems TO be the natural illumination OF
the amenities of life; and religion and
culture go together In the well-ordered
life of every woman. But it is when the
wife becomes . mother, when the relig-
ion and culture find q congenial sphere
for development in the ~ssnctities of
home, when among children and among
friends and neighbors the lone is always
uplifting and inspiring. hat literary
culture and genial development Of a
woman's mind and heart seem to make
life sweetest; and fortunate is the boy
or girl who has such q home. II is from
such quarters. be they the log cabin or
the house with the brown-stone front.
that men and women go forth with the
idea that conquers the world. Every
leading person has had q start some
where, and usually 1t Is traced to M
OF these mothers whose native or ac-
quired culture has been impaired to
her children. Here is the true impor-
lance Of literature at homo. 1t pays for
itself hundreds Of times over, in It's in
fluence upon parents and in the early
direction it gives to their children.

Why he Is a teetotaler is explained
by Senator Garland, OF Arkansas. Last
winter his fellow senators rallied him
on the change in his habits, and he gave
his reason therefor: "No, gentlemen,
there's nothing the matter with me,
but I've stopped. You know.we had a
pretty hot canvass in Arkansas, and l
went all over the state stumping. Well,
l saw the graves of a good many good
