The Atlantic Free Lance publishes
our note on W. IL. O'Connell, as a leap
year victim, and says that young lady
in that city offers 10 cents for an option
on win till Dec. 3lst. The young lady's
plan is very comprehensive, as it would
enable her to take him at the end of the
year if she couldn't find better suit,
and would practically take win out Of
the field, with no assurance of bargain.
But we can assure the lady that viii is
not a piece of 10 cent jewelry; on the
contrary he is IS carats fine, a solitaire,
so to speak 49, a thing Of beauty and a
joy forever. AS manager-in chief and
Office boy of this matrimonial agency

will be in Atlantic at an early day,
when the lady can secure an interview,
and any arrangement she can make
with him will be accepted as com.

He is most entertaining speaker, aud
from eighteen years experience and

ability. His forcible and pungent pres,

revolving picture of the liquor traffic,

always be true, that ans fool can make mon.

who save money frequently cannot keep it
for their very thrift frequently becomes
blind. There is perhaps no fact so quickly
known as an individuals possession OF more
money than he requires for his living. Men
who save are frequently vain of their succ ess
at thrift, and let out the fact that they are
further ahead Of the world than someb ody

especially in our metropolitan society, so

How the Heather are Improved.

Whai an encouragement to the civlizing
efforts OF missionary enterprise is presented
by the history Of the Sandwich Islands since
first the good men tackled the heather in
habltants. The population, in Captain
Cooks time, was estimated at 500 00). They
were a singularly simple minded people, and
in an incredibly short space Of time the en-
tire nation was converted to christianity
While the missionaries distributed salvation
the sailors of the whaling ships, who wintercd
there, disseminated disease and thus proved
valuable coadjutors in the good work OF rap
idly transferring large numbers OF the con-
verted natives to the Kingdom above So
rapidly has this gone on that to-day there are
but about $4,000 native inhabitants on the
Islands, and they have, nor do they care TO
have much TO say about the management
thereof. The government is run by Yankee
ministry the commerce Is in the hands Of
the Germans aud Chinese, while the orthodox
King sits In the palace aud PLAYS poker with
all the skill and zeal OF an American Con.
gresham the livelong day. In this palpable
evidence OF the advanced civilization OF HIS
Hawaiian Majesty there is much to encour-
age missionary effort in the untrled fields of
paganism. - Teas SJtings.
