Girls Cannot be Too Careful.

Girls, be careful! Maidenly modesty, good
taste and prudence seem to be at a discount with
many of our budding young maidens."
The above extract was read not with pleasure,
but pain! Alas! We fear it is true. This is a
fast age and many of our girls and young ladies
seem to have no restraining power at home or at
school, and often on the streets there is not
shown that modesty, good breeding, good taste and
prudence that must always mark the cultured, re-
fined and pure woman. We would not for any
thing curb the elasticity of youth, but girls should
be directed to be quiet on the streets or in public,
not boisterous, not rude, not forward, but act al
ways with dignity and modesty.
1t is a well known fact that the fast girl never
has that respect shown her by men that the Gull
tured, modest, refined lady commands. A boy can
go on the streets or in public and be boisterous
and romp, use slang, and nothing is said of it.
Let a girl do the same thing, no matter how pure

Quit Whining and Go to Work.

For the benefit of those who are addicted to the
useless and disagreeable habit of whining, the
following is copied from Medical Talk:
There isn't anything in the world more disagree
able than a whining person.
He whines if it is hot. He whines if it is cold.
He whines at this, he whines at that, he WINES at
everything. Whine, whine, whine.
1t is Just a habit he has fallen into. There is
nothing the matter with him. 1t is just a bad
habit.
The wilmer is generally an idle person or a lazy
one. What he needs is to be set to work-at real
hard work, mental or physical. Some work tnat
will interest him and engage his whole attention
and he will not have time to whine.
We know two women. One of them does her
own h~ousework and takes care of her horse be-
sides. She is happy and singing all the day long.
The keyboard of her life sounds no whining note.
It is q pleasure to be with her, a good, wholesome
tonic to watch her.
The other woman is so situated that she does
not nave to work. Nothing to do but to amuse
herself. She has no zest in life, no interest in
ANYTHING. She is a bunch of selfshncss and
whincs at everything. Whining has become such
a habit with her that her most casual remark is
tingcd with a whine. She is miserable herself
and makes everybody else in her presence misera-
bic. She is a weakling, a parasite, a drag, a heavy
weight on somebody all the time.
Get the whine out of your voice, or it will stop
the development and growth of your body. 1t
will narrow and shrink your mind. 1t will drive
away your friends; it will make you unpopular.
Quit your whining; brace up; go to work; be
something; stand for something; fill your place in
the universe. Instead of whining around, excit-
ing only pity and contempt, face about and make
something of yourself. Reach up to the stature
of a strong, enrolling manhood, to the beauty
and strength of a superb womanhood.
There is nothing the matter with you. Just
quit your whining and go to work.

The Fashions for Spring.

Goats and skirts are now being made of the
same material, but they are no longer fashioned
upon lines of almost geometric severity. The
newest material for these, and one that is rapidly
coming forward, is crepe de Chine. The spring
coat may be made in any one of three distinct
shapes; one is the short sack coat, loose and
straight, which was seen last season.; another IS
a modified Russian blouse, somewhat suggestive
of the kimono; a third style is a plain, loose coat
with a cape.
From present indications, two noteworthy fea-
lures of the new gowns are like to prevail. The
more important is the everincreaslng vogue OF
the short skirt. The other is the frequent use of
drapery across the front of the waist.
Too much Importance cannot be given to the
soft, sheer fabrics that lend themselves SO readily
to the graceful flowing lines of the seasons
modes. The voiles and veilings are, perhaps, in
highest favor. BOrdered materials in soft silk
and cotton mixtures, sheer cottons and linen can
vas are among the popular novelties. A CLINT of
gold is introduced in everything. Gold braids,
buttons, frogs, cords and pendants are some of
the forms of this military decoration. Laces that
are fine and fimsy are the choice of the moment.
The cclOrcd cotton emproideries are among the
novelties. There are lingerie frills and ruchings
without number for the sleeves and neck of the
fashionable gown, and buttons are conspicuous

Wanted Exercise.

The late Gen. Alexander Mcdowell McCook
used to tell this story:
"Some raw troops were drawn up for their
first battle. They were on marshy ground, under
fire, and ankle-deep in slush. One of the soldiers
was noticed to be trembling excessively, and his
fear might communicate itself to his comrades.
An officer approached him.
"EHere, what are you trembling forg demand
ed the officer. Stop it, or you will demoralize the
company. You are in no more danger than any
one else. Don't be afraid

standing still in this m-m-mud so long has
b-brought it on aga-again. W-w-w-ouldn't-t-t it

He Gave Up.

A darky in Alabama was once brought into
court on account of a comparatively petty offense.
When the clerk of the court began the reading
of the charge, which began with the usal form,
"The State of Alabama against Ezekiel Jenkins"
the culprit evinced signs of amazement and terror.
When the query was put to him, "Have you any
thing to say, etc., and do you plead guilty or not
~guilty?" the unfortunate negro stammered: at
amt no use, Yo' Honah! l amt guilty; but eff
de whole State OBJ Alabamah am agin one POI

THE HOME CIRCLE
The Drudge

Repose upon her s~oulless face,
Dig the grave and leave her;
But breathe a prayer that, in his grace,
He who so loved this toiling grace
To endless rest receive her.
Oh, can it be the gates ajar
Wait not her humble quest,
Whose life was but a patient val
Against the death that stalked from far
With neither haste nor rest;
To whom were sun and moon and cloud,
The streamlet's pebbly coil,
The transient, May-bound, feathered crowd,
The storms frank fury, thunder-browed,
But witness of her toll;
Whose weary feet knew not the bliss
Of dance by jocund reed;
Who never dallied at a kiss?
If heaven refuses her, life is
A tragedy indeed!

CHOOSING A WIFE.
A Man Can't Pick His Mother, but He Can Pick His
Sons Mother.

| suppose Pm tanning the air when | ask you
to be guided by my Judgment in this matter, be-
cause while a young fellow will consult his father
about buying a horse he's cocksure of himself
when it comes to picking a wife. Marriages may
be made in heaven, but most engagements are
made in the back parlor, with the gas so low that
a fellow doesn't really get a square look at what
he's taking. While a man doesn't see much of a
girls family when he's counting he's apt to see a
good deal of it when he's housekeeping, and while
he doesn't marry his wife's father, there's nothing
in the marriage VOW to prevent the old man from
borrowing money from him, and you can bet If
he's old Job Dashkam he'll do it. A man can't
pick his own mother, but he can pick his sons
mother, and when he chooses a father-in-law who
plays the bucket-shops he needn't be surprised
if his own son plays the races.
Never marry a poor girl who's been raised
like a rich one. She's simply traded the virtues
of the poor for the vices of the rich without
going long on their good points. To marry for
money or to marry without money is a crime.
There's no real objection to marrying a woman
with a fortune, but there is to marrying a for
tune with a woman.
While you are at it, there's nothing like pick
ing out a good looking wife, because even the
handsomest woman looks homely sometimes, and
SO you get a little variety. But a hOmely one
can only look worse than usual. Beauty is only
skin deep, but that's deep enough to satisfy any
reasonable man. Ct want to say right here that
to get any sense out of a proverb l usually find
that l have to turn it wrong side out.) Then, too,
if a fellows bound to marry a fool (and a lot of
men have to if they're going to hitch up into a
well matched team, there's nothing like picking
a good looking one.
1 believe in short engagements and long mar
riages. I don't see any sense in a fellows sit
ting around on the mourner's bench with the sin
ners after he's really got religion. The time to
size up the other sides strength is before the
engagement.
Some fellows propose to a girl before they
know whether her front and her back hair match
and then holler that they're stuck when they
find that she's got a cork leg and a glass eye as
well.-From "Letters from a Self-Made Merchant
to His Son." by George Horace Lorimer. By per
mission of Small, Maynard Il Co., Publishers

chance for gossip. A good name is more to be

The Dignity and Manliness of Labor Should be I'm
pressed on the Young.

"The man who is ashamed to do honest work"
said Rev. DR.. ]. O.. Rowe, "has something wrong
with his head. He needs to be taken all down and
put together again. No one needs to be ashamed
of having walked between the pillow handles. If
there is any one occupation of man that God di-
rectly instituted, it is that of farming"
Now that is what the public schools ought to
teach the children-the dignity and manliness of
honest, intelligent work, however hard, however
humble. Teach them that education is for the
purpose of making us better and more capable
workers. not to help us escape work.-Monroe
Enquirer.
