proper precaution may suffer from
this cause, in severe disease or long
drawn out misery. Ifunable to pre-
vent location in malarious districts,
by becoming acquainted With ma
ture's laws we may Sc regulate our
diet, manner Of living, and especial
ly medical regime, as to prevent in
great measure what thousands
know to their bitter sorrow is very
difficult to cure.
We may be careless and impru-
dent in many ways, and bring upon
ourselves ailments which, like the
fang Of the viper, cannot be shaken
of. And in how many cases these
punishments, inflicted by stern ma
ture for the infringement other laws,
are misnamed providential dispcnsa-
tions, and the victim struggles all
the rest of life in trying to submit to
the will OF God; never thinking that
the will of God is that we should en-
Joy health, and be active and happy,
and that a violation of that will
alone involve us in trouble. God ex-
poets us to use common sense, and
to obey the laws He has so wisely
made. If we transgress them, the
fault is our own.
And the worst of such trans
gressions does not appear in our own
personal sufferings. We entail up
on our children weaknesses which
make their lives miserable. and i'm
pair their usefulness. 1t is sad to
see children born into the world,
and struggle through short and
painful existence, with imperfect or
ganizasions and diseased conditions,
resulting directly from parenta! sin
or folly.
Let us have as good judgment and
correct principles in the matter Of
health as we nouldin business or in
social life.

ADVICE TO WIVES.

Wives often regret that their hus-
bands do not talk to them. This is
not the place to discuss the short
colnings of a man, but sometimes
when / have listened 10 the fault
finding, the garrulous retetitions.
frivolous details, the childish exact
ions Of sympathy and attention with
which some women bore their hus
bands when they are overburdened
and anxious with care and work, i
have not wondered that some men
grow taciturn ia their homes. But
it is a great loss if man is silent
among his wife and children. The
husband and vile live so much Of
the time in different world that
free intercourse can be great help
and pleasure TO each Of them.
You will not be likely TO make q
man talk by telling him that he
ought to talk, or scoldlng him be-
cause he does not do so. Make il u
pleasure for him to talk with you.
Exercise good sense. good temper
and tact in drawing him out on top
les of interest to himself Be pa
tient under his moods Of silence.
Be deserving the companionship Of
a sensible man. Avoid talking of
persons, or insignificant details con-
cerning yourself or your work.
Have something interesting or val
liable to say. The story of your
child's prattle may be full Of inter.
est. The number OF pies you have
made, or the rooms you have swept,
may not be worth repeating. Cul-
tisate the graces of character, speech,
and tones Of voice, and you may
find that the man who was glad to
escape the loquacious, complaining,
exacting woman, goes reluctantly
from her who knows when to talk
and when to bo silent, who denieth
her mouth with wisdom, and in
whose tongue is the law OF kind
ness"

that she did so. Or else, trying to
think and act for herself, and having
neither knowledge nor capacity TO do
so, falls into irretrievable muddle, II
not absolute ruin.
What pitiful stories do we hear
OF single women, young or old. who
have lost their all through too much
| faith in man"-some relative or
friend, perhaps knave, or more
commonly, not only a fool, to whom
they have lent money; or some trus-
tee from whom they have innocently
received a yearly income, never
making the slightest inquiry as to
where it came from, or whether the
investments were safe, until some
sudden collapse shows it to have
vanished entirely. Such cases are
as endless as the misery they cause.
Yet hearing of them, one almost
ceases to pity the victims, in con-
demning their egregious folly.
Every girl who is not entirely de-
pendent on her male relations--a
position which, considering all the
ups and downs of life, the sooner she
gets out of the bettcr-ought by the
time she is old enough to possess
any money, to know exactly how
much she has, where it is invested
and what it ought yearly to bring
in. By this time also she should
have acquired some knowledge Of
business; bank business, referring
checks, dividends, and so on, and as
much of ordinary business rs she
can. To her, information of a prac-
tical kind never comes amiss, espe.
cially the three golden rules, which
have very rare exceptions, No in
vestinent of over five per cent. is re-
ally safe. Trust no one with your
money without security, which
ought to be as strict between the
nearest and dearest friends as be-
tween strangers: and lastly, keep all
your affairs from day TO day in as
accurate order as if you had to die
to. morrow. The mention of dying
suggests another necessity; as soon
as you are twenty-one years of age
make your will. You will not die
day the sooner; you can alter it
whenever you like; while the ease Of
mind it will he IN you, and the trou-
BILE it may save to those that come
after you, are beyond telling.
1t cannot be too strongly impress
ed upon every girl who has or ex-
poets that not undesirable thing, "a
little income of her own" what for
tunate responsibility this is, and
how useful she may make it to 9th
ers Happier than the lot of many
married women is that of the 'unap
propriated blessing" as / have
heard an old maid called, who has
her money, less or more, in her owR
hands, and can use it as she chooses,
generously as wisely, without ask
ing anybody's leave, and being ac-
countable for it to no one. But then
she must have learnt from her youth
upward how to use it, she must not
spare any amount of trouble in the
using of it, and she must console
herself for many a lonely regret-we
are but human, all of us!-with the
thought that she has been trusted to
he steward Of the great Master.
Such an old maid often does as much
good in her generation as twenty
married womed.

READ WITH THE CHILDREN.


If our children do not naturally
take to books that are solidly nu-
tritious, it is not matter that need
fill us with astonishment, or land us
in the conclusion that juvenility in
eur times is extraordinarily de-
praved.
This much is absolutely certain:
that il we want our children and
scholars to pursue line OF reading
that is high-toned and healthfnl, we
must steadily pursue that line our
selves. And we interest ourselves
sufficiently to direct their reading
even to join them in their reading,
or to go little ahead of them, and
call attention to the finest points
that are developed by an author
conyersing familiarly as to topics
and treatment, drawing out their
opinions, awakening their enthusi-
asm, st 'mulaling their inquiries
then books that would seem to them
otherwise to be dull and profitless,
will light up with beauty, and kin
die with suggestiveness.as hundreds
of parents and teachers can testify,
who would have tried the expert
ment.

and croaking, whining and whim.

ORDERING A PREACHER.
Queer Predicament in Which a Mem

hom the Memphis

From the Memphis Avalanche.
"Send by first boat a preacher. Our
church is vacant"
Thus ran telegram received yesterday
by Barksdale, Denton 81 Co., from firm
in Arkansas. 1t broke the house all up.
They had most everything in the way Of
plantation supplies and pointed with pride to
the fact, but the particular article wanted
was painfully lacking. A hasty consul
tation was held in the office. and the religi-
Gus partner was called upon to show way
out of the dilemma.
whatever you say goes observed the
unconverted partner "This shipment is in
your line, and you've got to handle it. But
Temember-if the goods don't suit you'll
have to pay freight both ways, and all re-
bate goes to the house."
The religious partner unused for a mo
ment, "Theres Brother--," he murmured.
"He,s out Of job aud would like a chance
TO catch on somewhere, but his views might
not suit. He rather leans to the evolution
heresy."

partner. II Judge from the telegram any
body would suit that could I'LL vaoincy.

calling the Arkansas traveller of the house
aside, he said:

gentleman whom have engaged VIII ill the

Dick is the shipping clerk Of the con-
Germ.
The religious partner explained that
preacher was to be shipped to the Arkansas
firm.
"All right" said Dick, "but how in the
nation Pm to pack him is what gets away
VITA me. It's too hot to put him i'll cask,
and nothing less than a crockery crate will
be big enough. That amt secure, you

won't sign bill of lading for him."
well, we'll ship him loose, Dick. Thank
heaven, in this christian land preachers are
plentiful. If this one gets lost,
there are lots more where he
came FROM" and the religious partner
returned to the Office, well satisfied with his
own philosophy.
The minister was duly shipped on the
steamer James Lee two hours later.
IF he should happen to strike a Metho-
dist or Blue-Lignt Presbyterian congrega-
ton there will be music in the air." re-
marked the unconverted partner as the boat
rang her final bell.
Let US trust in Providence and charge
tho Arkansas fellows with commissions for
purchasing before we forget it" said the re-
hgious partner gently.

"Do you see that tcamf' said the wig

The little wig maker laughed aloud, and

"There are great many stylish steppers
driven in the park every day that have
false tails that sweep the ground. The
horses get used to the false tails Just as q
man becomes accustomed TO wearing a wig.
The false tails are fastened on to the horses
