HIS WIFE.

She sewed the buttons on his shirts with mar
velous rapidity,
And took the spots from OF his clothes with
pleasurable aydity.
She creased his trousers every day till they
were no more ereasable,
And when he growled her patient smile was
something more than peaceable.
She cleaned his russell shoes for him, with joy
quite unmistakable,
And took his cuffs and collars out-that Is,
when they were taxable.
She put his money in the bank with such
great regularity
That other women eyed her dress with eyes
that looked disparity.
When he got blue, she braced him up and
gave him something dIinkable,
And talked about that ship OF his that was
she said, unsuitable.
She let him buy his own cigars, with tact
quite incontestable,
And thought up dishes that he liked thai
we're not indigestible.
She listened to the Jokes he sprung and gig
gled at the best of them,
And when she couldn't giggle she approved
of all the rest of them.
She did not drag him off to call when he wal
quite undragable,
And when he had a nervous fit her tongu
was quite unwagable.
She brushed him up, she brushed him down
and kept him spick and spanable,
And showed him why the schemes he plannet
we're not always quite planable.
But she had no ear for music and her min,
was quite unbookable,
And when it came to beauty, why, she WASH
very lookable.
She did not care to go out much. She wa
not in society.
She had no time for heathens, and she coul
not talk on piety.
And every neighbor said of him, with laugh
ter quite satirical:
How did he come to marry her? 1t reall
is n miracle" Brooklyn Life.

School Girls Names, 1894.

A curious little change, Indicative
of the altered attitude of thoughts
towards woman, and OF woman's
added sense of her own Importance
to the world, may be observed in the
catalogue of girls schools. The pet
names have vanished. No doubt
there are still Mays and Nellies and
Kitties and Madges in our home cir
cles, Daises and Pearls and Brides
around our hearts, but very properly
good form has decreed that these ia
miliar cognomens shall be kept for
the lips of household love, not worn
in the hearing of society. You search
in vain to-day on college catalogue
for Sadie or a Polly, Flossie or a
Lulu. But Florence and Julia, Mary
and Sarah are there in stated y grace,
and there too are Eleanor, Katherine
Dorothy, Margaret, Mary, and Eliza
beth. The middle initial has gone
too, and in it's place is the girls full
name, Mehitahle, Frances, or what
ever it may be, the whole baptisma
legacy from grandmothers and aunts
written out in full.

1t is the duty of everyone, whether at home
or travelling for pleasure or business, to equip
himself with remedies which will keep VI

TALK UP YOUR TOWN.
MoDEsTY SHOULD NOT PREVENT ITS
GOOD POINTS FROM BEING KNOWN.

MoDEsTY SHOULD NOT PREVENT ITS
GOOD POINTS FROM BEING KNOWN.
IL you live in a town you should
believe in it. If you don't believe
your own town or city is little bet
ter in most respects than any of its
neighbors, you should move out.
Like other places, it has advantages
that others have not, and your mod
esty should not prevent you from
making that fact known whenever
the opportunity presents itself. At
home or abroad, whether pursuing
pleasure or engaged in business, do
not neglect to give those with whom
you come in contact to understand
that you live in a town populated by
enterprsing, go-ahead, progressive
people and one that is advancing in
stead of retrograding. If you can
truthfully speak in communication of
the ability of your professional men,
the square dealing methods of your
merchants. the superiority of your
churches, schools, and public institu-
tons, and the industry, energy and
sobriety of your citizens generally,
let nothing prevent you from exercis-
ing that privilege. You should learn
to believe, if you do not already,
that we have all these, and in add
ton the handsomest women, the best
located town, the finest country sur
rounding it, with the most fertile
farms, titled by the most intelligent
class of farmers to be found in the
United States.
If there are any drawbacks, it will
not be necessary to mention them.
The people and newspapers of com
peting towns will relieve you of that
task by attending to that part of it
themselves. Strangers seeking a To-
cation are always influenced in favor
of any place whose citizens are en-
thusiastic in it's praise. No city OF
town can expect to attain promi
nence over it's rivals unless its inhab
itants appreciate the excellence ano
virtues of each other and will collect
lively spread abroad their faith in the
present prosperity and future great
ness of their own locality. Talk is 6
cheap commodity, but hen rightly
utilized it can be made effective il
many directions, and this is one o
them.
