Things are coming to a sad state OF
afIaifs. The girls Of this day have
to sit with their hands in their peck
cts and WHISTLE for fear of Il SANDER
Gus tongue. 1t is very strange that a
few long-t0ngue individuals in this
poor world Of SANDER forget that they
were once young. They too forget
that a Young lady's character Is all
she has, and when that is gone her
future life is blighted, it were better
she were dead. A tale may begin at
\ mote with Alpha and will not stop
lntll 1t is a beam at Omega. Some
people seem to delight in "stretching
he blanket" just a little, as it seems
10 them, but when a young lady's
character is concerned, they should
be more particular. Suppose some
thing slanderous was started, out of
merely nothing, about their own
laughter, do you suppose they would
run all over the neighborhood and
'pread the news? Well, No! not
much! They would be mad enough
10 knock the bottom out Of Hades.
And it would be well if they would
md go through with it, But still
they rejoice in spreading the news if
1t is about someone else. The scrip
lures teach, Judge not lest We be
Judged, "Whatsoever a mar soweth
hat shall he also reap.n 1t will be
sure to come home to them sooner or
alter. Maybethey have youngdaught-
'rs, or near relatives coming up. But
Alas! After it is too late, and the
harvest is ripe and the day Of reap
fng is come, they will have to reap
what they sowed. Then these words
will be hurled back at them, "What-
'oeverye SOW that shall We also reap"
Thus the slanderOus tale begins:
Mrs. A, tells Mrs. 3. II saw Mary
Brown walking with a Young man
he other night and he had hold OF
Ter arm, and she was leaning right
wei toward him" Well this is as
rood as Mrs. B. would have, and
way she goes to tell Mrs. G. that
Mary Brown was walking with a
"oung man the other night and he
held her arm so tight that she almost

'erstand, nor does she care to, tell
Mrs. d. the first opportunity, "Mary
Brown was walking with a young
nan the other night and he held her
20 tight that they both walked on the
anne plank" The slander0us lie
continues to grow, until tile poor
iris character is ruined, forever
"uined. 1t is often said, one person
'oss is anothers gain, but what i
+ained here? The young lady's char
rcter is ruined. And their tongues
continue to clatter. But some day
