Don't be a scandal monger. Loaf
around on the streets and be public nuis-
ance, if you have been Iaised that way
and feel inclined. A street loafer Is COM
paratively harmless, if he attends to his
own business, but for the sake of human
ity at large don't be the organ through
which the public ear hears every choice
bit of scandal against Your neighbor. If
you have got anything against him. go
and whip him, if you are man enough,
but don't be a cowardly slanderer of him.
Don't initiate the cur dog that barks at a
passing mastiff and, when attacked, takes
shelter under the house. Your neighbOr
may be bad man, unfit for you to asso-
ciate with, but if he is, you pollute your
tongue by talking about him. Above all,
don't allow yourself to get the reputation
of a slanderer and public liar by repeat
ing everything you hear about other
peOple.-Ex.

A telegram from New York
dated June 6, shows that there is
something mysterious in the naval
circles: "Orders have been re.
ceived at Brooklyn Navy Yard
that the cruiser Boston may go
into dock at once. What this sud
den activity means nobody APPEARS
to know, but it is thought sqpe-
thing important is in the wind.
Some of the naval officers suspect
that the condition of affairs in
Hayti means work for the cruiser.

Washington fear rioting as re-
suit of Legitime's downfall, and

Once the president has raised my pay; he:
wise gentleman and considerable, and he
begged of me for Heavens sake not to
leave him in the lurch, but I'm sick of the
job. These fellows would kill a mule
with their everlasting gable about the
Importance of giving them something. I
told the president the other day that no
money would buy me to hold on much
longer. He begged me to hold on little
longer. The hot weather was coming, he
said, and would drive them out. He had
heard reports that the cholera would break
out here soon, and that would drive them
away, but l think he was deceiying me.

Sir, Mr.. Editor, what 1 am writing you
is true. The presidens, with a perfidy be-
yond the experience or Imagination of

his place. This dummy is gin-drinking
miscreant who has got rs, the loyal ser
wants of the party. 1t is to this creature
that the migrate Harrison has been forcing
Us to speak ever since the 4th of March, .
while he (HarIison) amuses himself or
sees cabinet officers on business. 1t is in /

'Has it occurred to you" said a
railroad manager recently, chat
ocean steamers now make better
time than the average passenger
train? 1t seems strange, doesn't
that a ship should pillow through
the ocean at a higher rate of
speed than a passenger train runs
on wheels, but it is fact as figures
prove. The city of Paris, on her
trip last week, made 511 knots, or
geographical miles, in one day.
That is 5S7 statute miles a day
or 243 miles an hour. An ordina-
ry passenger train does not aver
age over % or % miles an hour,
and it is fast train that makes %
miles"

The Rural New Yorker afirms
that quite a noted French dairy
authority has recently advanced
the theory that milk can be most
readily and safely shipped and
stored in frozen state. Expert
ments in France go to show that
frozen milk can be transported
with the greatest ease, and that
when thawed out, after days or
even weeks in a frozen state, it re-
tains all the characteristics of
fresh milk. A number of exper.
attempted to pick out the thawed
milk from specimens that had nev-
er been frozen. They were unable
to do so. The application of the
principles of cold storage has
about revolutionized the fruit bus
mess. Shall we witness a similar
revolution in the milk business?

Advice to a Young Man.

So you were little too pert,
and spoke without thinking, did
you, my son? And you got picked
up right suddenly on your state
ment, Ell? Oh, well, that's all
right; that happens to older men
than you every day. 1 have no
ticed that you have very positive
way of filing a decision where
other men state an opinion, and
you frequently make a positive as
sertion where older men merely
express a belief. But never mind;
you are young. You will know
less as you grow older. Don't [
mean that you know more?"
Heaven forbid, my boy. No, in
deed; I mean that you will know
less. You will never know more
than you do now; never, IL you
live to be ten thousand years old
you Will never again know as much
as you do now. No hoary headed
sage, whose long and studious
years were spent in reading men
and books, ever knew so much as a
boy of your age. A girl of fifteen
knows as much, but she gets over
it sooner and more easily. Does
it cause pang, then, to get rid of
early knowledge" All, my boy,
it does. Pulling eye teeth and
molars will seem like pleasant re-
creation alongside of shreding off
great solid slabs and layers of
wisdom and knowledge that now
press upon you like geological
strata. "BGt how are you to get
rid of all this superintendent
wisdom?" Oh, easily enough,
my boy; just keep Oh airing it.;
that's the best way. 1t won't
stand constant use, and it disinte-
CRATES rapidly on exposure to air.

According to our idea of such
subjects, it is just as much the
husbands business to make home
the brightest and most alluring
haven of rest on earth" as it is the
wife's. The idea that a mother
who has been worked and worried
to death all day by the cares and
annoyancss of a household, per-
haps with a sick child to nurse,
and in feeble health at that, should
have to go beyond her powers of
endurance in order to make home
attractive" to some great lubber of
a husband, with the muscle of an
OK, the health of a whale, and the
digestion of an ostrich, is utterly
