Marry a Gentleman.

It was excellent advice I saw lately
given to young ladies urging them to
marry only gentlemen or not to
marry at all. The word Wss used IN
it's broadcast, trusst sense. It did not
have reference to those who had line
rsiment and white hands and the
veneering of society polish, merely to
entitIe them to the distinction, but to
those possessed of true manly and no.
BILE qualities, however hard their
hands and sunbroWned their faces, A
true gentleman is generous and un-
selfish. He regards anOther's happi-
ness and welfare as we'll as his own.
You will see the trait running through
all his actions. a man who is bear
at home among his sisters and dis.
courteous to bis mother, is just the
man to avoid when you come to the
great question which is to be answered
yes or no. A msn may be ever go
rustic in his early surroundings, If he
is true gentleman be will not bring
a blush to your cheek IN any society
by his absurd behavior. There IS an
Instructive politeness inherent in such
a character, which everywhere COM
mands respect aud makes its owner
pass for what he is-one Of natures
nOblemeu. Do not despair, girls;
there are such men still in the world.
You need not all die old maids. But
wait until the princes pass by. No
harm in delay. You will not be apt
to find him ia the ball robm. and |
know be will never be seen walking
up from liquor saloon. Nor is be
champion billiard player. He has not
had time to become Champion
for be has had too much honest, ear
nest work to do in the world, [ have
always observed that these 'champi-
ons" were seldom good for much else.
Be very wary in choosing, girls, when
so much is at stake. Do not mistake
passing fancy for undying love
Marrying II haste rarely ends we'll.
Do not resent too much the Inter
ference" Of parents. You will travel
long and far in this world before you
will find any one who has your true
interest at heart more than your
father and mother, and age and ex-
perience have given them an insight
into character which is much beyond
your own. 1t is very unsafe to marry
a man against whom so wise a friend
has warned you. l never yet knew
of a runaway match that was not fol.
lowed by deep trouble in one way or
another, and matches made sin
spite" are pretty sure to end ia long
life repentance.-W Woman at ac0rk.

One day last fall a queer sort Of an
old man hired boat and rowed out on
the river little below Yonkers TO fish.
So far as could be observed from the
banks he had no luck. He went out
about 10 in the morning and at In the
afternoon ho sat in the same position,
held his fshpoIe the same way, and had
evidently settled down to stay there all
night.
Pretty soon steamboat came rushing
along down the river. She was headed
directly for the fisherman, who was III

warn him, but after glance over his
shoulder he resumed the old attitude.
The steamer came nearer and nearer;
aud the old man was observed to give a
sudden start and pay more attention ia
his line. When too late, the pilot
tried to stop and avoid the accident.
The sl1iff was struck broadside and
splintered to pieces, and for two o.
three minutes it was believed that the
old man was drowned. Then some one
espied hinlin the wake Of the boat, and
he was fished out.

Cigarettos.

A few years ago cigarettes ia their
present form were unknown. Cigarettes,
so-called, were Of Spanish make. so
loosely rolled that they required reroll-
ing by resident smokers. Then was in
vogue, and is now to less extent, the
practice Of making ones own cigarettes.
Properly shaped and sized papers were
furnished, in which Turkish tobacco was
rolled by the ostentatious young smoker.
Then sprang UP manufactures Of cigar
ettes already rolled and prepared for the
smoker. The increase in manufacture
has hardly kept pace with the demand,
for it is snid that during last summer the
supply at some watering places fell short.
Cigarettes are used more in summer than
iii winter, as the bare hand finds it un-
comfortable and the gloved hand comes
clnmsily to the business. At first cigar
cites were simply rolled and papered;
later, monthpieees were added Of PASTE
