why Girls Don,t Marry.

A prominent woman physician OF Boston has
freely expressed her conviction that the great
superiority in culture OF so many OF the young
girls OF to-day over that OF the average men who
60 early into business exerts one very bad effect
namely, that these young girls do not want to
marry m such men. There Is no doubt great deal
partments It has always been noticed that one OF
the standing Ill the culture say. OF flowers
has been TO make it's votary perfer tea rose to q
head OF cabbage; or, OF music, to prefer harmon
ions orchestra TO a discordant street band; or OF
religion to prefer piety to profanity. Now, there
Is no reason why the rule should not work equally
In the case OF marriage. The maxim that " any
husband Is better than no husband had once q
great deal OF truth In It. for the condition Of the
unmarried women was In bygone days forlorn
one: she could no more help growing sour than
milk ID thunder storm. Any and every woman
with the most Insignificant spr1g OF q husband
could turn up her nose at her and embody weight
OF pubic opinion In her contemptu0us attitude
that few single unfortunates could have the dig
nifty ana sell respect to stand up against. To-day,
however, the scales tip the other way with ven
geance.

Of some importance If you happen to live in coun-

Russia, as everybody knows, there is great deal
OF picturesque piety, and saints days come round
very frequently indeed. Railway guards and en-
CINE drivers it would appear, are the most relig-
tOus class in Russia; since those employed upon
the southwestern Railway have lately petitiOned

substitutes behind them while they are listening

A Bootblack,s Fortune.


HE WON IT MORE BY PERSEVERANCE AND PLUCK
THAN BY GOOD LUCK.
From the Santa Rosa Democrat.
A little over seven years ago, a bOOtblack from
San Francisco wandered to this city. During the
six months that he was around our streets, he
made many friends through his quiet, respectful
manner and bright and Intelligent face. At last
he disappeared from our city as quietly as had
been his arrival No one knew whittier or why be
had gone, as he had made no conf1dants while here
| and kept his business to himself. Last Saturday
he returned to this city from the northern country
on his way to San Francisco. But not as boot
black. The bright, intelligent-faced boy had de.
veloped into tall, finely proportioned man with q
sun-burned, happy Countenance. The change is
accounted for in the following story told by him.
self:
He had started from San Francisco In the spring
OF 1879, with the intention Of going to the north
ern counties to take up land. He had left all Of
his earnings, which he had been saving up for the
purpose, with his mother and younger brother, and
started out to work his way by boat; but that
| failed. and he was compelled to travel overland
the end OF his six months stay here he left with
ehequer until his arrival in Mendocino county
in learning that he was not old enough
| to take up land. But he made a vow
that t he he would not t. return to his mother
than he had given her on his departure. Days
heightened into weeks. and still he had no regular
| employment, and would have starved without the
| aid of some of the citizens to whom he told his
| story. At last he CHANGED to meet with tall,
rOugh-bearded man, who subsequently proved to
| be his benefactOrtn most singular manner The
man, whose name was Randolph, was intoxicated,
and would have fallen over steep grade had he
not reached him just in time. Fearing to let Ran
dolph go. home alone, he accompanied him up a
steep and tOrtuOuS mountain trail to his cabin,
situated on the border OF his claim of 100 acres,
which was covered thickly with valuable timber.
Although Randolph loved liquor he carried within
his breast the warmest Of hearts, and on learning
the lad had saved him. and also Of his little bene-
Mi Crh Hcto tn I, o
leaving him. Four years passed, during which
Randolph and the bOOtblack worked together.
The cabin was transformed into cOSey little
dwelling. The possessions Of Randolph, which are
now shared equally between him and his prOtege,
had been constructed, and stalwart woodmen had
cut deep swath in the timber. At the end OF an
other three years. which brings to the present
time, other improvements have been made, and
the little bOotback is returning to his mother and
little brother after all these years rich merchant.
The firm OF Randolph CO. is estimated to be
worth x}O.O 600.

might place his hands upon the bloody sacrifice,
Which lay upon the altar OF his God, ana swore
him to eternal enmity to Rome, AS tho father and
son, with hands clasped and eyes fixed upon each
