Liqht Vote in the Primaries.

The want of interest n Saturdays primaries may simply mean that the people consider a constitutional con yention as a foregone conclusion, but even this should not make the voters indifferent as to who are to sit in body that is to propose new funda- mental law for two millions of people. There should have been the Keenest interest on Saturday in the selection of delegates hut only handful went to the polls in any precinct in the State. There was indifference alike in town and country.
 The politicians would do well to heed this indifference, and not change
 it into positive distrust and dislike. Heelers and self-seekers should be left at home Broad-minded men who I will command the approval of the citizen out of politics are wanted men who have studied at least some of the questions that will come up in the convention.
 If the convention is filled with heel CTS and the small fry nothing will come of it. The people will not ac- cept its work. The danger may not DC as great as we have pictured it, but it certainly is great enough to ren- der thoughtful men apprehensive-- great enough to call for the best men instead of the self-seeldng small poli- ticians and spoilsmen.

FEMININE REMARKS.

Aids to memory are well enough, but
what most people want is something TO
help them forget.
People who are willing to take the
bitter with the sweet will find it mostly
swt ct.
A woman will usually make ten ex-
cues for her boy to one for her hus-
band.
Keeping ones TENDER is equivalent
to keeping ones friends.
Marriage is failure whenever it is
disappointment.
The real martyr never counts on hay
ing an audience.
The ideal husband is usually some
other woman husband.
We shall soon be hearing of tn e SELF
made woman.
A good-hearted man isn't necessarily
q soft mark.
Pardon doesn't necessarily include
forget fulness,
1t is better to borrow trouble tn t
buy it.

GOLDEN GLEANINGS.

From love which is founded upon an
illusion, there may be an awakening;
but for love which sees its objects as
they are, and still goes GA loving them,
there is no conceivat lie cire either IN
tlis world or 10 the world to come.
Hope is the handspring OF human
acti N; faith seals our lease OF immor-
rality; and charity and love give the
passport to the souls true and lasting
happiness.
Among the lights which lie through
the shadows of life the brightest is
love, and the love Of little children,
perhaps, has the sweetest shine OF ali.
Happiness is built up, step by step,
on the common. sense principles OF
self. control, self-denlal, ard persistent
effort.
Happiness is to the heart what sun
light is to the body, end he who shuts
out either is an enemy to society.
Xxx
We grow narrow in our views when
we do not welcome thoughts and ma
lures remote from our OWL.
Courage, like cowardice, is undoubt-
edly contagious, but some persons are
not liable to catch it.
Pleasure is like cordial; little OF
it is not injurious, but too much de-
stroys.
Good manners and good morals are
sworn friends and fast allies.
