Sweetheart Nell, 1 want to whisper
Something tender in your ear;
Something |, and not the roses
Or the listening robins hear"
"Never mind the rose or robin;
If you've something nice to tell,
Take a girls advice and tell it,"
Answered laughing sweetheart Nell.
Listen, then; l love you darling,
More than any words can say;
II I'd make you understand it
Unjust find some other way.
Love must find a better language
Than mere spoken words can tell
All it's passions, all its longing"
''Find it, then, " laughed sweetheart Nell.
81 have often thought that kisses
We're the language Of the heart,
When a lover to his maiden
Would his tend'rest thoughts impsrt
/ could make you know in kisses,
What in words l cannot tell"
'"Then if l were you I'd do it."
Laughed bewitching sweetheart Nell.

proof as q downtown bank. The
floors are iron and brick, and what
is more remarkable, the ceilings are
only ten feet high. He has CAS- no says
got enough Of long flights of stairs and
prefers comfort to appearance. Imay
add that q number Of rich men are
building houses with ceilings just ais
low. IT is q reaction from that ridicu-
lous notion Of height which has made
New York stairwavs so ruinous to wom-
ans health. From twelve to sixteen
feet has been the prevailing custom,
but the injurious effect resulting from
tins extreme height justify a change
which may yet become popular ever

II the young ladies who use the
words e::aash" and "mashcr" will
consult the daily papers, they will
see that "masher" means, in plain
English, libertine, and .iberiine
is depraved, brutal beast that no
lady should ever know. "ilave you
seen my last mash?" means shave
you seen my last lihertine" Young
women who do not wish to be con-
sidered bad characters should avoid
such brutal Slang Exchange.
If young ladies, who through as
sociation with young men whose linn
tied education and poverty Of ideas
compel the use of slang, lieu of cor
rect expressions, comprehended the
meaning of many of the terms thus
put into their innocent mouths, they
would be shocked at the vulgarity
of their companions. Almost with
out exception, words aud phrases
popularity denomnated "slang" are
drawn from the slums; they are the
inventions OF the most deprayed
elements of human society, and
should be avoided by all persons
with any pretentions to refinement
and gent;lity,- l.. II. Gazette.

a L'Iry Sican's Evidence.

People, as a general thing, en-
dorsc medicine according to the
effect produced upon individuals,
but a remedy to be of universal
good, must cure in all similar in

physician is of paramount import
ance in summing up the saluiary
and curative advantages of rem
edy when largely used by the peo-
pie. In this respect, Manshe.d's

ed by an astonishing array of evil

The State taxes are now lower
than at sny former period Of the
States history, and when we con-
slider the State debt which is hang
ing over us, it is only question of
time when they must again be raised.
In view of this fact, it is unfortun-
ate that our County tax should also
have been reduced below sufficient
revenue to meet the annual current
expense. The County Indebtedness
could have been more easily dis
charged now than when the State
debt will demand attention. When
the day Of reckoning does come, as
come it must, there will be n
double burden to bear, the people
will be in a good frame of mind to
groan over the want of foresight in
the business managers Of County
