ment they all had the ague, and they
ought to have it now. The man that
cannot get a living from the soil, with
out getting up before daylight, ought
to starve. Eight hours day is enough
for any farmer to work except in har-
vest time. When you rise at four and
work till dark what is life worth /! Of
what use is all the improved machinery
unless 1t tends to give the farmer
little more leisure! What is harvesting
now compared with what it was in the
old time! Think OF the days Of reap
ing. of grading, of raklng and binding
and moving. Think of thrashing with
the fail and winnowing with the wind.
And now think of the reapers, and
mowers and binders and thrashing ma
chimes, the plows and cultivators upon
which the farmer rides protected from
the sun. If, with all these advantages
you cannot get living without rising
III the middle of the night, go into some
other business. You should not rob
your family of sleep. Sleep is the best
medicine in the world. There is no
such thing as health withou. sleep. Sleep
until you are thoroughly rested and re-
stored. When you work, work; and
when you get through take good,
long and refreshing sleep.

SEX AND WAGES.

In the North american Reavezv, Mrs
Julia Ward Howe discusses the old
question of wages in relation to sex.
She makes the usual mistake, and talks
about the matter alphabetically in
stead of practically. Mrs. A. fought"
to be paid, in wages, just what Mr.. B.
or Mrs. c. will do the same work for !;
beyond that there is abundant room
for justice. The claim that men are
paid more than women for doing the
same work and doing ii just as well,
has little foundation in fact. There
may, here and there, be man who
gets $1,000 rs school teacher, where
the women of the same grade who do
the same work as we'll or better. get
only 900; but this is due, not, as Mrs.
Howe assumes, to the cowardice OF
trustees who are afraid of the man be-
cause he can vote, but merely of their
stupidity in fancying that he does bet
ter work. The right thing to do is to
dismiss such man and put a woman
in his place at $1,000 NO." says
the essayist; "dismiss him and ap-
point woman at $500" This pro-
position arises from the notion that en-
ployment is charity whereas, in fact
labor is commodity. the price of
which is graduated by the supply, like
the price of vegetables. There is only
one way in which the wages of women
can be increased. This can be real
lied only when women acquire special
training; that is, when they learn to do
some difficult thing which the wo Id is
obliged TO pay for. AS long as women
can do only a few things, their wages
will necessarily be low-just as the
price of wheat is low when there is an
excess OF 100, 600, 600 bushels. When
they learn to do many things, and some
Of those things which require asslduous
and skill of hand, their
wages will rise correspondingly. But
here is another trouble; as a rule, wo-
men aoiNn0t acquire special training,
because they expect to marry. They
will not devote two or three years of
girlhood to learn trade they prefer to
sew on shirts at 20 cents day, or go
INTO paper-box factory at Sc week,
and take their chances for husband,
or, missing him, get living somehow.

THE HOME CIRCLE.
CONDUCTED ny MRS. Nj. woLvERroN
SCHOOL GIRLS SUFFERlNGS.

The young men who complain that
the manageable girls are lacking in
knowledge Of housekeeping have not
got down to the root in trouble. What
our girls lack is not knowledge of any
kind 1t is health. The great trouble
with most of them is. that they know
too much-except OF one or two things
that would be of most value to them.
There is nothing in the newspapers
more distressing to a thoughtful lover
of his race than accounts of the grad
uating exercises" at girls schools. The
gnls are commonly graduated at
about the age their brothers are begin
ming their serious studies at college. and
into the few years during which they
need the tenderest care they have had
crowded an amount of work that would
appali vigorous adult. The result is
that those of them who are not killed
outright enter upon life with no other
endowment than a backache.
A well known physician has lately
said that when young woman comes
to consult HIM he always asks her
whether she stood high in her class
SO constant a correspondence has he
found between the graduating average
and the poor girls feeble health. And
this is easy to understand. A boy
might stand the amount of application
and excitement to which girl is SUBJ
jected in her school years if any boy
could be found to submit to it. No
parent would expect of boy what is
exacted of his daughter at this early
age. And yet nothing is more certain
than that the period oflife during which
our girls are having their heads cram
med with all sorts of possible and I'M
possible learning and accomplishments
their minds upset with public exhi-
billions and their bodies wearied with
perpetual unrest-is just the period
that determines whether they grow up
healthy women orhelpless invalids.
There may be some girls who pass
through this ordeal unframed, but it is
mystery how they do it. And the
worst OF it is that it is upon the women
of humble means who cannot afford
the luxury of invalidism that the cnrse
of this pernicious system falls. Well
TODD people usually take better care
of their girls nowadays. They encour-
age outdoor exercise and give both
body and mind a reasonable chance
for development But the girls who,
If they have not health, will have no
dowry whatever are those who are
ground down to this terrible servitude
in the schools in the vain deluslon that
their education" will be of value to
them. 1t could never be ofmuch value
in any case, because system that
Grams all the study of a lifeline into
four or five years is fraud on the face
of it; but being almost inevitably pur-
chased at the cost of permanent i'll
health it is much worse than useless
If women can wait and take their learn
ing leisurely it may do them no harm.

There is in this city a rheumatic
hen which has nearly raised brood
ofchickens. Though huving the use
of only one foot she has scratched
around industrousIy for herself and
family until her chicks were nearly
grown. The hen isnow laying again,
and in this operation remar kable to
say, she has the hearty cooperation
of her chickens. When she goes to
the nest to lay they nestle around her
seemingly most deeply interested, and
when the mother leaves the nest with
the fresh laid egg, the chicken set up
"a eackling concert and make us much
noise as if they had themselves laid

hen will get to Setting" in u few days
