A Girls Brother.

Most every girl when she gets a young
man is more or less annoyed by the in
reference of her brother. Most every
girl stands in more or less dread of her
brother. And it is just as well this
should be so. If romantic notions enter
her head, and she carries them into ef-
feet, she is rather more concerned as to
what the brother will do or say than as
to what will happen with father or
mother. At the worst from the parents
will come discountenance. The young
and hot-headed brother is liable to load
his revolver.
1t is the duty and right of the brother
to make himself acquainted, first of all,
with the character of his sister, to know
in what degree she is capable of taking
care of herself To note well the sort
of men which please her. Then, if he
thinks she is a girl of sense and not to
be trihed with, if he worries her with
constant espionage, he is fool. If she
is giddy and reckless, then should he be
on guard, not so much and so openly
as to give the world the impression
that his sister is an idiot or worse. The
brother should never forget that if his
conduct shows that he cannot trust his
sister, everybody else will take her at
his valuation. In any event, he should
keep closely in mind that small but
somewhat important fact that it is his
sister who is to do the marrying, and
not himself, and that while no doubt
she would be pleased to give him
brother-in-law he could like, it is natur-
al she should prefer, above all things,
a husband to her own taste.

N. Y. Observer.

Except under wise and skillful man
agement the hired help on farm is a
source of never ending trouble and vex-
alton, not to say actual and material
loss. On the whole, the faults are very
nearly balanced between employees and
employers. Sometimes the employees
are really lazy, inefficient and untrust-
worthy, and sometimes the employers
are harsh, overbearing and tyrannical.
An intelligent, capable man of indepen-
dent spirit, who knows his rights as
well as his duties, will not long endure
service under man who is Extensively
domineering or a chronic scold and
fault-inder, any more than an employer
of the former character will retain a
man in his service who is sullen, shift
less and unreliable.
1t will be found in the case of hired
help, that it pays in the end to be kind
towards them, and considerate of their
welfare. The man who treats his help
as he does his cattle with the sole view
of getting as much work out of them as
possible with the least possible trouble
and expense to himself; who drives
them to work early and late; who is
harsh and exacting in his dealings with
them; who is quick to deduct from
their wages for all lost time and slow
to allow compensation for extra service,
may succeed for a time in such course,
but he will be the loser in the end
He will often find himself deserted in
emergencies and forced to depend upon
temporary and transient help. He will
be subject to constant and vexatiouS
change, for the best men will remain
with him the briefest time. Those who,
for various reasons, feel obliged to re-
main in his service for any length of
time, will take but little real interest in
his affairs, and their work will generally
be done in the most mechanical and
superficial manner. An employer who
manifests little or no regard for his en-
ployees beyond the mere question of
the amount of work performed can
hardly expect them to manifest, in turn,
that intelligent and genuine interest in
the results of their work which is neces-
sary for its most complete and success
full fulfillment. All work is done best
that is done heartily and cheerfully,
but this cannot follow where the work
is done under the eye of a petty-spirited,
merciless taskmaster.
Methods that are practiced with the
poor and ignorant classes of some east
ern countries, can never be introduced
with success in a country like ours, and
especially in districts where the hired
help are native Americans and quite
equal to their employers in intelligence.
1t is often complained that really good
help is scarce, but it is probably not
more scarce than the people who know
how to keep good help when they get
it. Forbearance and consideration need
to be exercised on both sides.

Labor and Longevity.
Long Life of Well Known Scientific and
Literary Men.

Ericsson, the veteran inventor, was
eighty-one years old recently. He is
in excellent health, and works, it is
said, sixteen hours day, proving an
exception to the general rule, which,
like many others that are received with
out question, is fallacy. Perhaps it
might be fairly asserted that busy men
live longer than idle men; that work
is, after all, the true elixir of life. Many
noteworthy instances where longevity
comedies with remarkable mental &C
tivity will easily occur to the reader.
not Sophocles more than ninety,
when, to prove that he was not in his
dotage-as his heirs claimed in order
to get his money-he wrote one of his
greatest tragedies? Did not Humboldt
do more work at fourscore than many
bright men do at forty? Goethe, as
every one knows, died with pen in hand
at eighty-two. Won Ranke, the fore
most of living historians, has just pub
lished another volume of his "Universal
History" he will be eighty-nine years
next December. Carlyle and Emerson
lost none of their vigor until they
reached three-score years and ten.
And to-day who imagines that Oliver
Wendell Holmes, already on the verge
of seventy-five, is old? Longfellow did
some of his best work shortly before his
death, at seventy-fve, and Whittier is
now two years older than that. The
vast energies whose sum in many direc-
tons are known as Victor Hugo, show
no signs of decrepitude, although it is
now more than eighty-two years since
Victor Hugo was born. Historians, it
may be remarked, have usually been
long lived.
Voltaire died at eighty-four; Thierry
and Michelet at seventy-six; Mignet
and Guizot at eighty-seven. George
Bancroft is weighty-four, and George
Ticknor lived to be eighty. In public
life we have had several recent examples
of great men whose power for states
manship did not diminish through age.
Gladstone is nearly seventy-fve, and
Palmerston was Prime Minister at the
time of his death, two days before he
had completed eighty-one years. Benz
amin Franklin, in the last century,
lived to be eighty-four.

HARPER'S BAZAAR.
ILLUSTRATED.

Harpers Bozar is the only paper in the world
that combines the choicest literature and the finest
art illustrations with the latest fashions and
methods of household adornment. Its weekly
illustrations and descriptions of the newest Paris
and New York styles, with its useful pattern sheet
supplements and cut patterns, by enabling ladies
to be their own dressmakers save many times the
cost of subscription. It's papers on cooking, the
management of servants, the housekeeping in its
various details are eminently practical. Much at
tention is given to the interesting topic of social
etiquette, and its illustrations of art needle work
are acknowledged to be unequalled. Its literary
merit is of the highest excellence, and the unique
character of its humorous pictures has won for it
the name of the American Punch.
