Tho advice l would give a young
man" said Mr.. Flood to Il young man
one day, who desires to become merely
successful in life, is to remember one
thing. There are few men who have so
little hat there will not DO found others
who will try to take it away from them.
He will realize, sooner or later, that
four men out Of five with whom he
comes into contact are endeavoring to
get the best of him. 1t rests entirely
with him to decide whether he will get
the best of them, or they of him. Brains
are what is wanted in the world; not ex-
p%eriencc.
Mere clerks are a drug on the
market. They cannot be entrusted to
do you an important service for they
never have been able to do one for
themselves. In employing a man it is
comfortable, perhaps, to find him with a
good recommendation; but this recon-
mendation to which the stereotyped
rules of business attach so much will
not save you from making a mistake.
You cannot throw the responsibility of
a failure upon a piece of paper written
by another man. A strong man will al
ways judge for himself. The moro edu
cation, intelligence and brains a man
has, the more useful he is. Many men
have acquired experience; few have
profted by it."

land and has 100 acres set out in pyre-
thrum, which plant is in full bloom in
May. She has just built a new water
mill for grinding the flowers for insect
POWDER Last year she manufactured
ten tons ready for market, and it was a
poor year. The coming year Mrs Hill
will plant POO acres, with an immensely
increased crop. She began this noycl in
dustry in 1877 ainder great difficulties
her husband had died in 1867, leaving her
with three little children. a debt of LOO,
her little ranch mortgaged and no means
for support except the iortuitous work Of
a pair of strong hands and n courageous
heart. Within five years she had lifted
the debt by washing, taking boarders,
raising chickens and turning her hands to
everything that was possible early and
late. TO day her property and industry
are worth half a million dollars. She en-
ployes from fifty to eighty men, women
and children on her ranch. Beside tho
pyrethrum, Mrs. Hill has two acres OF
apple trees. from which she clears yearly
about $500. with eighteen acres of april
cots, walnuts, pears and small fruits.

lsan Francisco Chronicle "Undertones
There is a married lady whose hus-
band has no vices. She is perfectly
happy. She has nothing that really
worries her. But she can lash herself
into a towering rage over the merest
little deficiency in that husband Of hers,
and he, wise, sensible man, knows it
is only a kind of exercise for her temper,
and he smiles till it is all over. She
; does o really believe that anybody has
a better husband, but she must com
plain.
What are you fussing aboutf' said n
friend of hers when she was railing
against the incapaeity of men. I'm
sure Fred's a good husband.
You don't know HIM You don't
know himl You don't know him
Fred is-he is-oh, WE'LL know Fred's
a power in his business, my dear; he's q
perfect power in his business, But when
he gets home oh, well, you don't know
him-he never can learn what side of
the beefsteak to carve, and when we
have company he always cuts OIL the
wrong side and the tcnderloin goes into
the kitchen. It's very mortifying.'

1.-THE old -fashioned Jack knife is a
thing of the past" said the dealer in
cutlery, pulling a pearl handled knife
out of the case aud holding it up for the
admiration of the customer. Tho
horn handled pcn-knife that retailed
years ago for n dime and 10 cents has
given way to the more snowy article
that sells for n quarter. The demand
from country store-keepers is now fora
much better class of goods. The coun-
try boy is not satisfied TO whittle
with a blade that costs less than so
cents.
''The best knives we're formerly made
in England and Germany, principally
at Sheffield, but now there are several
immense factories in Connecticut and in
New York that have driven the foreign
wares out of the market TO a eonsidera-
bic extent. There vas once a rage for
big pocket-kniyes with a regular
menagerie of blades, but now the calls
are mostly for small knives, with not
over four blades. They are making
knives without finger-nail blades. with
gutta peroha handles. They are more
durable than ivory handles, and will
not crack. Some ingenious person has
invented a method of attaching the han
dies that does away with the rivcts.
The steel used in knife blades is of
the finest quality, but not so flexible a
that used for razors. II is made under
patented processes and heavily protected
by royalties. The handles are made by
separate companies. Three seasons
labor is required in the manufacture OF
one knife, and last year over /, 900, 900
of them were made in this country

During the days of Victor IIugo's
exile in Guernsey an English lady, who
had for some time been living with her
family at st. Savior, near the center Of
the island, missed her youngest son, an
intelligent child of about . years old.
The boy, it afterward appeared, had
strayed from his nurse, and, wandering
aimlessly about, had grown weary, and
had quite ~contentedly Como to sleep in
the open air. Hugo, on one of his soli-
tary rambles, found the child Just awak-
ing, and recognizing him as the son OF n
lady whom he knew by sight, he hoisted
him onto his back. and greatly de-
lighted, cantered with him across coun-
try to his own house.
A storm came on, and it was decided
that the youngster could not be sent
back that night. A messenger, how
ever, allayed the mothers anxicties, and
next morning the boy was returned, to.
gether with profuse apologies, many
thanks, and a huge basket Of flowers
and fruit. Upon being asked how he
had enjoyed his unprecedented visit,
the child said: Very much indeed NJ.
Hugo played at lions with me all the
evening. He was the lion-under the
table, And, do you know, oncc when
he came out of his den and growled, he
pulled off the table-cloth and broke
every SO many glasses. 1t was such
funl 1t is not given to every one to
have played at lions with the author of
Les Miserables.

De Neuville, the French painter of
military scenes, recently deceased, car
ried his love of the realistic so far as to
smash the windows Of his studio, tear
the doors off and riddle the walls with
bullets. His models, most Of them
soldiers who had made the campaign,
were often nearly suffocated by being
piled upon one another; the horses that
came to him from the knackcr's yard
still alive, were shot IN the workshop H.
self, so hat they might fall naturally.
All this was to the great dismay of
his neighbors, who, in the beginning
not knowing what to make of all thii
noise, frequently ran to the police. Tho
guardians of the law in their urn in.
vaded the premises in order to prevent
what they imagined to be wholesale
slaughter. They only found DE Neu
vile with dishevelled locks, pistol in
hand, arranging his scene, and retired
with a handsome pourboire to wash
down the smoke Of the gunpowder with
which they were almost choked.
