SOME DON'Ts FOR WIVES.
A Few Wise Remarks Evidently Made
by n Man.


by Man.
From the Philadelphia Times.
Don't look for perfection in your husband.
He has not found perfection in you, has he?
Don't treasure up all your daily trials for
your husbands ears when he comes home
at night.
Don't talk too much about what lovely
times you used to have when you were
free and single"
Don't go around slipshod and slovenly be-
fore your husband. He may not say any,
thing about II, but 1t will have a demoraliz-
ing effect upon him all the same.
Don't ask him to be both master and
mistress Of the house. Don't expect him to
oversee your servants or to do things that
you. as mistress Of your own home, ought
to do.
Don't tell him how bad the children have
been, or how hateful the kitchen girl has
acted: or how the stove wouldn't draw, or
how the clothesline broke with the weeks
wash on 1t, or how the baby has cried all
day. or how badly the ironing has been
done, or how the milkman left milk that
soured in an hour, or how little ice the Ice
man left for Is cents, or how the grocer
has sent bad eggs for good ones.

THE PAWN SHOP.

ueies-hOur "VncIe's" Profits.
feature of the pawnbroker's auction
more remarkable even than the enormous
quantity of goods submitted at each SALE
or the rapidity with which the separate
lots are Knocked down" to bidders, is the
small sum that most of the said lots real
lie, says London journal. A very few
minutes observation Of the proceedings
should serve to convince the most skeptical
person that there is a great deal Of exag-
geration in the reported profits made by
uncle" in his ordinary way Of business,
which consists in advancing sums OF money,
the repayment whereof with interest is
secured to him by the borrower depositing
with him property the realizable value of
which will cover the amount due to him.
Those London county councillors who pro-
rosed q resolution that the pawnbrOking
business Of the metropolis should be hand
ed over to them argued that such a change
was bic, were 1t only on behalf of the
thousands Of the less thrifty Of the working
classes who habitually borrowed small
sums Of money on their belongings-notably
on their bettermost wearing apparel-re-
deeming the same on Saturday for Sunday
wear. and renewing the loan next day; thus
interest that in the year amounted, In many
cases, to 100 or even $50 per cent.
Thus, the pawner of a coat or gown, re-
curing an advance of shillings, was
enaiseu ior the same naI-pehce interest
per month. or for any less period within
that space Of time. So that. IL the pawning
were weekly, In the course of twelve months
the pawnbroker received no less than 6s.
and I'd. for the loan of the fourth Of a
pound. That is quite true: but II it should
happen that the said garment IL left on the
hands-and how often this
happens Is undeniably shown by the many
tons Of wearing apparel disposed of in the
course of a month at the auction rooms-it is
very far from certain that the pawnbroker
will be able to sell his security for the bare
sum advanced on 1t. to say nothing about
the interest thereon that is likewise due to
him.

A Safety Envelope.
From the Paper Min.

T
A New Jersey woman has patented a de-
vice for an improvement in envelopes, in
answer to the recent invitation Of the gov
eminent to submit ideas and designs for
means to detect tampering with sealed let
tiers. Her invention is very simple. merely
the printing of a. small device of any shape
on the under side of the flap of the gummed
envelope in a sensitive fluid, fixed when
dry, but which will run or spread on the
application of steam or moisture. thus
showing whether the seal has been molest-

ESTABLISHMENT OF CEMETERIES.
An Opinion That the Health Omcer
Has Nothing to Do With 1t.


Has Nothing to Do With 1t.
An application received by the Commits
sioners some time ago from David Sholsky
president. and David H. Rosen, secretary of
the Congregation AgoodasAchim of this city,
to establish a cemetery in the suburban
subdivision known as White Town, to-
gether with a communication from the
health officer In regard to it, raised the
question whether 1t is necessary to make
application to the health officer for the es-
adjustment of a cemetery in this District.
In his decision to the Commissioners At
torney Thomas says that no new ceme-
terry can be established In the District of
Columbia without authority of law, unless
by Cemetery association organized under
section J98, and following, of the District
Revised Statutes, or unless the person or
persons desiring to establish the cemetery
dedfcates land therefor. not exceeding five
acres, according to the provisions in sec
ton 6O4 of said statute. 1t must be appar-
emit that the health officer has nothing to
do with the establishment of a cemetery.
HIS functions as to cemeteries relate to in
terments and disnterments."

Of his age. The aged couple were
