The conditions of trade at the end OF
the week have not varied from those OF
the earlier part, except that the volume
Of business transacted by retailers is
somewhat heavier, as is generally the
case.
The week has brought about drop Of
cents on butter and cents on eggs, the
result Of unusual receipts OF produce
from the country.
DRY GOODS AND CLOTHING.
The volume OF business st New York
continues moderate. Personal selections
of seasonable goods were very light with
jobbers owing in measure to the unfs-
vorabie weather ruling on several days.
With agents orders for fall snd winter
wear goods were OF 6 moderate total.
Prices OF cotton goods showed little
charge except for slight shading IN
print-cloth quotations due to less sctive
demsud. Toward the close OF the week
these goods sold at 8 IL Ice for 64x64s,
sgsirst 5 1l-l6e plus l per cent. last
week. Agents were rather slow sellers
at the reduction. however. The wooden
goods trade was quiet. New features are
IS scarce S. ever. Heavy mems wear
goods were Inactive. Dress goods IN
moderate recorder movement. In general
woolens blankets were In pretty fair de-
msnd aud stocks sre reported we'll cleared

too often wanting from that of most oil
our fair country women. So pretty and
engaging Is this touch OF velvety softness
to character and behavior that one might
suppose shrewd Miss Pert would cult
vate q semblance of it ss q means Of cap
tivation.
"My dear mother" I heard an accom-
plished young lady say to her excellent
and by no means unrs fned parent, 81
wish you would not talk Of what you
do not understand. There is not q word
of truth in what you have been
saying!"
Twas not surprised, some weeks there
after, to hear the dear old lady say quiet
ly, as if stating an indubitable truth: "It
by law, and got out Of the way as soon as
their children are grown land settled in
life. There is nothing left for them to do
In the world after that. l think"-with q
CLEAN of bitter humor-"that the insects
have the best Of 1t who die directly after
depositing their eggs where they will be
taken care Of without the parents help"
Our girl can not afford, for her own
sake, to go without the elevating infn-
ences Of the interim passed under the
mothers wing when book.lessons are
ever and the prince is still but an ideal.
Now or never is the season when she
can repay in kind the wealth OF
loving kindness she has received
from father and mother since she drew
her first breath; return it in such
grateful lavishness that they will
account it recompense beyond de-
sert, full measure pressed together
shaken down and running over, given
into bosoms thrill with renewal Of life.
The helping hand she lays to the daily
burdens that begin to Cypress the moth
er's shoulders is being trained for ssiilful
work in her own home; even the forbesr-
snce she lie called upon to exercise when
physical infirmity makes the gentle
mother peevish and the strong father IN
reasonable prepares her to control tenn
ter and tongue in the day when RESPONSE
bilities as yet unknown shall hsrass her.
The home to her is the Lords own
school for the right discipline OF charac-
ter. The gracetions prescribed By nature
are safe and easy. Childhood should
have Its perfect work before it is devel-
oped into girlhood, not be displaced by it.
Womsnhood and matronhood succeed in
the Fathers gracious time, with breath
ing spaces between that make life full
and fair. MARION HARLAND.
