How PENNSYLVANIA MINERS LIVE.
A Times reporter met q middle.aged
Pennsylvania German miner with his
dinner.kettle in his hand. He said that
he had worked in the mines eighteen
years. He was asked how the men mar /.
aged to live on sixty cents day, with
only work several days week. swell, i"
he replied, I'VE live, and that's about all.
We don't like to expose our poverty. but
the timss have been dreadful. 1 tell
you it makes mans heart ache TO
gather his children around the table and
hear them cry for more to eat when you
haven't got it TO give to them. That's
what I've seen, and right here among
these minss. Many Of the miners don't
know what Sunday is, and things arc in
. bad way. Whit do you think of men
coming TO work with their kettle, and
at noon retiring to some quiet corner
away from their companions, apparently
to get their dinner, when they hadn't a
crust, and then going back to work with
empty stcmacha and heavy hearts 7
That took placs in the ore mines right
here In this district. It would be better
ii they'd close every mine. and then the
men would know what to expect. y

ADVICE TO YOUNG GIRLS.

1 \ lady OF intelligence and observation
has remarked; Il wish l could impress
upon the minds of girls that the chief end
OF woman is not to marry young II
girls could only be brought TO believe
that their chances for happy marriage
were better after twenty-five than before
there would be much less misery in the
world than there now is. To be sure,
they might not have as many opportuni.
ties to marry as before, but as they do
not need to marry but one at time it is
necessary that one should be satisfactory.
As a girl grows older, If she thinks at
all, she certainly becomes more capable
Of judging what would make her happy
than when younger. How many girls at
twenty would think Of marrying the
man they would gladly have married at
sixteen: At thirty woman who is
somewhat independent, and not over
anxious to marry, is much harder to
please and more careful in her choice
than one at twenty. There is good rea.
son for this. Her mind has improved
with her years, and she now looks beyond
mere appearances in judging men. She
is apt to ask il this man who is SO very
polite in company is really kind hearted.
Do his polite action spring from happy,
genial nature, or is his attractive de.
meanor put on for the occasion and left
of at home as he lays off his coat! A
very young girl takes it for granted that
men are always as she sees them in soci.
ety-polite, friendly, and on their good
behavior. If she marries early the man
who happens to please her fancy she
learns To her sorrow that in nine cases
out of ten man in society and man
at home are widely different beings. Five
years at that period of life produce a
great change in opinions and feelings.
We frequently come to detest at twenty.
five what we admire at sixteen. We ad.
vance from the taffy candy and peanut
age to the era OF gum drops and marrons
glaces, and even in later years lose our
yearnings. L Scottish-American Journal.
