Youths Companion: Al a recent trial
for divorce in New York, the wife, who
had been a gay, fashionable girl, testified
that difficulty first arose between herself
| and husband On his discovery, soon after
| their marriage, that much Of her jewe.ry
| ard brio a. brac had been given her by
former admirers.
The Companion has nothing to do, usu'
ally, with cases OF divorce OF unhappy
marriages, but this detail emphasizes a
moral which every young girl should
take to heart.
The husband, on this point, had n right
| on his side. No man Of honorable feel
ing would be willing To see his wife wear
| the rings or decorate his house with the
| costly trities which had been given to her
| as tokens of the affections of other men.
In this country, especially in villages
and rural communities, II is no uncom-
mon for girls to accept gifts Of jewelry,
books and ornaments from young men to
whom they are not betrothed.
1t is not The custom, let us state most
emphatically, in that class Of u society
which is most scrupuious in its Difference
to the rules Of good breeding andin which
young girls are most carefully protected.
The man who would offer jewclry, orany
costly ornament to one Of these young
girls would be regarded as vulgar and
ignoranto of the first principles OF etiquette.
This principal, like others which gov
ern good manners. is based on common
sense. No gentlewoman should permit a
nan VINO is no her husband, kinsman Or
attianced lover to place her under 2
momentary obligation; for the simple
reason that such in obligation gives the
man a hold upon her, which in many
eases is dangerous, and in all is unseemly.
A good rule for the guidance of o girl
through the years when she is the objec.
OF admiration aud ilattegy ia to DO moth
ing which she would not be willing to
tell now 20 her mother and hereafter to
her husband. Life may be made I mer
for her by observing tAat rule, bat w II
aa.urediy be more pure, womaDly and
safe.

Early Modes Of Writing.

The earliest mode OF writing was on
bricks, tiles, oystcr-shclls, stones,
ivory, bark. and leaves of trees, and
from the latter the term %'leaYcs Of a
book is probably derived. Copper
and brass plates were very early in
use, aud a bin Of fcolment on copper
was some years Since discovered in
India bearing date 100 years Il. g..
Leather was also used as well as
wooden tabcts. Then the papyrus
came into vogue, and about the cightu
century the rapyrus was superseded by
parchment. Tno,drst approach 10 tie
pen was a STYLUS, Il kind Of iron bod
kin. but the Romans forbade ia, use on
account of It's frequent aal even fatal
uso in quarrcls. aud then it was made
of boue. Subsequently reeds pointed
and split, like pens of the present day,
were used, and III time they were re-
placed by pens of steel and gold.
