From tho Contemporary Review
Every girl who is not entirely depend
ent on her male relations-a position
which, considering all the ups and downs
of life, the sooner she gets out OF the
better ought by the time she is old
enough to possess any money to know
exactly how much she has, where it is
investe:. and what it ought yearly to
bring in. BY this time also she should
have acquired some knowledge OF busl-
ness-bank business, referring to checks,
dividends and so on-and as much OF
ordinary business as size can. To her
information Of a practical kind never
comes amiss, especially to three golden
rules, which have very rare exceptions:
No investment OF over five per cent. is
really safe; trust no one with your money
without security, which ought to be as
strict between the nearest and dearest
, friends as between strangers, and, lastly,
keep al your affairs from day to day IN
as accurate order as if you had to die
tomorrow. The mention i dying sug-
gests another necessity-as soon as you
are y years OF age make your will. You
Will not die a day the sooner; you can
alter it whenever you like, while the
case Of mind it will be to you and the
trouble it may save TO those that come
after you are beyond telling. It cannot
be too strongly impressed upon every
girl who has OF expects that lot undeslr-
able thing, "a little income of her own, y
what a fortunate responsibility this is
and how useful she may make 1t to 9TH

ried women is that Of the ''unappropri-
ated blessing" as l have heard an old
maid called, who has her money, less or
more, in her own hands, and can use it
as she chooses. generously as wisely.

Fell From the Great Pyramid.

The accident which recently occurred
at the Pyramids was very shocking. A
corporal in the Army Hospital Corps,
who, poor fellow, was just going home,
having served his time, had a picnic to
the pyramids with some of his comrades.
He ascended to the top Of the Great Pyra-
mid, and was seen to pause when about
a quarter of the way down, and make a
signal as if for help. Suddenly he was
seen to slip back against the step or
block below him, and then to rebound
from each successive step. The pecullar-
itv of the accident is that the body did
not roll or tumble from each irregularity,
but bounded into the air as it struck
these in succession as If attracted thereto;
in fact, a series of par;!bola were per,
formed. The corpse when it reached
the base was shapeless mass.-London

WANTED IT HIMSELF.
The Wonderful Popularity OF Nin;c-siaired
Joe Brown Down in Georgia.
(CarD IL Cleveland L.ad.r.)

(Car3 il Cleveland L.adr.)
Senator Joe Brown is as strong in
Georgia as ever and I notice {; Sunday
school story going around the press in
which one of the pupils, on being asked
who made the world, replied ''God."
"And who made God?" was the next
question.
"Joe Brown" was the reply, aftel a
thought.
This same state Of admiration pre-
vailed IN Georgia while Brown was Gov
ernor Of the State. He had been Gov
ernor for several terms and it was the
question in the minds of the people
whether he would accept renomina-
ton. The other aspirants for the posi-
ton were especially anxious to know. If
Brown desired to run they knew there
was no hope for them, and if not, the
man who got the knowledge of the fact
first might gain in the start and win the
race. But Brown is a very ticklish man
to handle. His fur is like that Of a cat.
It doesn't rub well the wrong way, aud
the candidates were afraid to ask him 4
question. One of them, however, con-
cluded to try to worm it out Of Browns
wife, and, as the story goes, called upon
Mrs. Brown while the Governor was
away. After henming and having about
for some time, he finally said:
'Mrs. Brown, l understand that the
Governor does not intend to rrn again,
and that he is going to give the other
boys chance. Now, if he wants the
office, OF course We would not run against
him, but if he don't, We think he ought
to let us know
Mrs. Brown, who is Il very charming
old lady, and who has some Of her hus:
bands ability, replied: 81 haven't hear,;
Joseph say as to whether he IS going to
be candidate tor Governor or not; IN
deed, he has not spoken anything about
it, but from what [ know Of Joseph
rather think he wants it himself.

CAPTURING THE CROWD.
Edwin Booth Improves on Shakespeare to the
Delight OF Virginia Audience.
lFrotn the Buffalo Times.l -.


Once, during the days of his early
struggles, Booth was 3: transforming !"
down in Virginia, at place called Lees
Landing. The improvised theatre was
tobacco warehouse, and it was crowded
by the planters for miles around. Booth
and his companions had arranged to take
the weekly steamer, expected to call late
at night, and between the acts were busy
packing up. The play was "The Mer-
chant of Venice" and they were just
going on for the trial scene when they
heard whistle and the manager came
running in to say that the steamer had
arrived and would leave again in ten min
utes. As that was their only chance for
week Of getting away, they were IN
terrible quandary.
eff we explain matters, said the mana
ger, ::they Will think they are being
cheated and We shall have a free fight.
The only thing is for you fellows to get
up some sort Of natural-ike impromptu
ending for the piece and ring down the
curtain. Go right ahead, ladies and gen
tlemen, and take your cue from Ned
here" and he hurried away to get the
luggage aboard.
Ned, of course, was Bassanio, and he
resolved to rely on the ignorance Of the
virginians Of those days 70 pull him
through all right. So when old George
Ruggles, who was doing Shylock, began
to sharpen his knife on his boot Booth
walked straight up to him and solemnly
said :
"You are bound to have the flesh, are
you?'
"You bet your lifeH' said Ruggles.
"Now, III make you one more offer,
continued Booth In addition to this
big bag of ducats III throw in two kegs
of niggerhead terback, q shotgun and
two Of the best coon dogs in the State. )"
I'm blamed if don't do it !" re-
sponded Shylock, much to the approba-
ton of the audience, who were tobacco
raisers and coon hunters to man.
"And to show that there's no ill-feel-
ing" put in Portia, "WeI wind up with
Nirginny reel"
When they got on board the steamer
the captain, who had witnessed the con-
clusion of the play, remarked:
I'd like to see the whole of that play,
gentlemen. I'm blamed if | thought
that fellow Shakespeare had so much
snap in him.
