what a Country Girl Can Do.

"What can country girl do to earn
money at homer" There are ten things
the average country girl can do to earn
money-as follows:
l. Let her turn her attention to silk
culture.
2. If her neighborhood offers an
opportunity, let her open a kinder
garten school, or let her establish a
home for the taking care of young chill
dren when the mothers are otherwise
employed.
8. Let her can fruit. This will make
it necessary that she should have a
garden.
4. Let her run poultry yard. Eggs,
chickens and feathers are all profit
able.
3. Let her raise honey. This is not
q hard or unwomanly occupation. 1t
requires intelligence, as all oceupa-
tions do.
6. Let her raise strawberries.
7. Let her raise flowers. This is a
most profitable industry. Choice flow
ers, wreaths for weddings and funerals,
evergreens for public occasions, all
command good price.
8. Let her prepare Christmas ever
greens.
8. Let her, like her grandmothers,
make butter and cheese. =
10. Let her make iellies and preserves
for the market.
These ten suggestions may be Of ser
vice to some country girl who is look
ing towards the city for employment,
and she would become more intelligent
and more useful, more healthy, and
make better marriage by remaining at
home. ~. ~ =.

Summer Time.

The fragrance of the wild rose fills,
With odorous breath, the summer air,
And song Of robin clearly trills
Along the dusty thOroughfare.
The grassy lane with clover sweet.
That leads beyond the naples shade,
Invites the wanderers lingering feet
Along the path the herd have made.
The slope whereon the white lambs Craze
Is frightened by the morning sun,
That DER the landscape softly plays.
And gilds the day but just begun.
The rustic bridge across the stream
Looks picture-like. There oft is heard
The heavy trampings Of team,
Or the light carol of bird.
All nature throbs with its delights,
And that has speech which once seemed
dumb;
Sweet harmony the ear invites,
From whispering grass to insects hum.

o fair young crescent, traced in fame.
Upon the western sky,
! meet you face to face, and claim
Your happy augury.
Good fortune while you wax and wane,
"A myth Of childish lore
My heart still keeps tonight fain
Would be child once more.
Along the gray horizons rim
Lie clouds as black as night,
While frightening through The twilight dim
CLEANS out your arc of light.
o Moon not vain methinks we hold
Your promise, for we know
Your shadowed disks half ring of gold
With full-orbed light shall glow.
And as, o Moon, your silent call
The great sea tides doth draw,
Life's tidal waters rise and fall
Obedient to their law.
Why should doubt or fear ? One Hand
Alone doth hold and guide,
And 80 upon the shore as.rand
wait the incoming tide.

Seine Blunders in Print.

An absurd blunder appeared in the
Parliamentary report of the Daily Tele.
graph on the occasion of Mr.. Gladstone's
resolutions on the Eastern policy Of
Lord Beacons6eld's Government. There
a right honorable gentleman was repre-.
sented as accounting for the action of
another member of tho House by the
statement that he had ''sat at the feet
Of the Gamebird of Birmingham" an
allusion to his perception which was
not SO intelllgible as the rendering of
other journals, "the Gsmaliel Of Bir-
mingham. Perhaps Irish reporters,
owing to the recognized tendency of
the soil and climate, are privileged in
matters of this kind. One of them, in
describing the result of a recent con-
hict between the police and the people
in which firearms were used, writes /:
''In the Union Infirmary lies John
Smith with his shattered leg, which was
amputs4ted on Tuesday last" Ordinary
mortals might have imagined that the
surgeon would have caused the shatter-
ed member to be removed from. the i'm
mediate vicinity of the crippled patient.
That Ireland has a strict monopoly OF
this class of composition can hardly be
sustained if this be correctly credited
to Glasgow papers account Of ship
ping disaster: "The captain swan
ashore, as did also the stewardess. She
was insured for $4,000, and carried 200
tons of pig-iron." But less ephemeral
publications than newspapers have oc-
casionally furnished instances of ludi-
crous ambiguity. Morse's old geography,
for example, pointed out an architec-
tural popularity of an extraordinary
character when it informed the rising
generation of its time that q certain
town contained 400 houses and 1900
inhabitants all standing with their
gable ends to the street. ."--[All the

A Foolish Young Man.

A young exquisite, the son of a cele-
brated New York ropemaker, is exciting
much good-natured laughter by his e1-
ceedi g daintiness and lavish display.
He has lately attained his majority, and
is anxious evidently to dispense the
large income he finds at his command.
He has forty coats, an umbrella for each
shade OF dress, and canes and scarf pins
innumerable. he said he had to get q
brougham, because he had to go to his
lawyers so often, and he has besides q
two.wheeler and Russian sleigh with
horses to match. He has flowers sent
TO his rooms twice day, and when he
walks with young lady he always buys
for her most expensive bouquet, there
being no other sort at this time of the
year. He spent $4,000 in fitting up
two rooms in his mothers house. BE
wears three marvellous rings upon his
hand-a cats eye set in hammered gold,
a red cats eye, with two diamonds, and
sapphire set with two diamonds. His
shirt buttons are two pearls set in dia-
monds, and also cats eye set in the
same precious stones. He has five
dozen pairs of silk hose, with his mono
gram upon them, and he bas a cane. in
which is concealed cologne fountain.
To young lady who admired one Of
his rings the other day he kindly said
he would send one round to her house
the next day just like it.-NeaO York

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.
This world belongs to the energetic.

This world belongs to the energetic.
Try your skill in gilt first, then in
gold.
What has been unjustly gained can
not be Justly kept.
Those are the most honorable who
are the most useful.
The man who never e1cites envy
never excites admiration.
Sow good services; sweet remem-
brances will grow from them.
The man who steps out of his way to
injure another deserves, and will surely
meet, with reprisal.
What novelty is worth the sweet
monotony where everything is known
and loved because it is known?
Success soon pals. The joyous time
is when the breeze first strikes your
sails, and the waters rustic under your
bows.
We all feel able to accustom our
selves to the possession of wealth, but
to get used to poverty we have never
learned.
The obscurest sayings of the truly
great are often those which contain the
germ of the profoundest and most use
full truths.
The science of life may be thus
epitomized: To know we'll the price of
time, the value of things and the worth
of people.
If it is your purpose in life to make
70 ur face your fortune you must look
we'll to it or it will turn out 60 be your
misfortune.
They say that money does not bring
happiness. This is en- experiment,
however, which every one wishes to
try for himself.

A Sly Peasant.

A curious episode that came near
having tragic end happened the other
day at railway station at Ratisbon, in
Bavaria. A peasant, with heavy sack
on his shoulder, made inquiries at the
Office in regard to the next train for
a neighboring town. Hearing that he
would be obliged to wait more than an
hour, he placed his sack near the
entrance to the baggage-room, lay down
by it's side and fell asleep. Shortly
thereafter porter passed, and seeing
the ssck, grabbed it and threw it, not
very gently, on the scales in the room
A piercing shrek Immediately issued
from the sack, which on being opened
was found to contain the eight-year.o old
son of the peasant. The peasant had
intended in this way to save passage
money on his son by slowing him away
under his seat in the bag.
