Don't Scold. For tho sake of vour
children don't do it. It is a great misfortune
to. have children reared in the presence and
under tho inlluenco of a scold. The effect
of tho everlasting complaining and fault
finding of such poisons is to make the young
who hear it unamiable, malicious, callous
hearted, and they often learn to take pleas
ure in doing tho very things for which they
receive such tongue-lashings. As they are
always getting tho blame of wrong doing,
whether they do or not, they think they
might as well do wrong as right. They lose
all ambition to strive for the favorable opin
ion of the fault-finder, since they see they
always strivo in vain. Tints a scold is not
only a nuisance, but a destroyer of tho mor
als of children. If theso'unlovcd, dreaded
pcoplo could only sec themselves as others

Daniel in the Hands of a (linker.
Nantucket peoplo cnjVy a reputation for
umartnesi, and even D.mlel Webster found
his match there. Tho story as told by Mr
Webster is as follows.
Tho court held a term on tho Island peri
odically. There was not much litigation.
But the suits wero lioavy, relating to sliipi,
whalo fishing, and oil. Tho Judges and law
yers usually went over from tho continent
and spent a week or ten days, and finished
tho business of tho besslon. One day one of
tho friends of tho Island called at my office
in Boston, ami eald ;
"Friend Daniel, what wilt thou ask to
como down to Nantucket and plead a case
for mo before tho judges?"
"I will go for a thousand dollars."
"That is too much, friend Daniel."
"lint I'll have to-go down Saturday, and
perhaps remain tho whole woelc following;
I would as soon nrguo tho whole- docket."
"Well, friend Daniel, if theo will argue
such cases as I will prccnt to theo boforo
my caso is called, I will givo you a thousand
dollars," so tho bargain was struck.
My client went to Nantucket, and found
his caso at tho foot of tho docket. Ho went
from man to man and saw all who had any
caso on tho docket, and wuid : "What will
theo give if I get the great Daniel Webster
to plead thy cause?" IIo took retaiuors
from u dozen men. Some guvo him $100
and some ?500. Jlehad grace enough to
give me tho $1000 ugreed on, and paid my
oxponscs in tho bargain. I argued tho dock
et right through, for plaintiff and defendant,
until I reached my client's eawe. Ho struck
tho balance, and admitted as the bteanier
left tho wharf that ho had got his case argil.
41 aud pocketed $1,600 besides.
I'mtilns Urnnmental Treei.
Tf you want biuhes, not trees, do not
prune. If you want tree, not bushes, let
them be trained tn n single stem. This
rein.irlc applies, however, more to deciduous
tree than In conifers. Most of the latter
inly push out lateral branches from the
lowest part of tho stem, and nro thus fmth
ercd Jo (ho ground, without throwing up
more than mio main trunk. But deciduous
tree, especially whero they have mililcieiit
room, rrctiuenlly throw up two or throe
stems which rival caeli other, or strong
shouts from the lower part of tho stem-,
which become largo branches in time. If
tho rival stems nro not all excised but one,
uid il the branches springing low from that
tom nro tint lopped off, no tree will then be
for.ncd, but only a largo btuh. Our remarks
n pinning apply only to ornamental trees,
mil are directed purely to ornamental ends,
flic pruning of fruit trees is based on quite
lillvrent principles, mid directed toward
".wiring tho largest quantity nntl best qual
ity of fruit, quite Irrespective of elegance of
appearance. Tho main objects to be secured
by pruning are first, to develop a handsome
and healthy main trunk, which Is only to
livorgo into branches at a given height from
tho ground, Where trees are grown in closo
proximity to cacli other, as in wood', nature
iierfornis tho office of denuding the steins of
'heir lower branches. When in such close
-ontaet, want of air and deficiency of light,
Aimlilucd with tho mechanical effect of fric
tion and the natural tendency of sap up
ward, cause the destruction of all but tho
upper limbs of tho trees. But while in a
spacious forest a multitude of tall branchless
trunk, canopied over by foliage high over
our heads, pocss a beautv and majesty
quite their own, such a feature in isolated
specimens or in small clumps would loso its
charm. Hence, in artificially divesting
trees of branches at six, eight or ten feet
from tho ground, you nro to have regard to
tho lateral space you wish them to occupy,
and tho aspect which you wish Uicm to pro
sent. The second object in pruning is to
obtain n symmetrical shape by lopping off
straggling boughs or branches, clearing part
of tho shnol.s that grow inside tho head
when they are too numerous, cutting away
all dead wood and unhealthy growths, etc.
In pruning a tree, cut away tho branch
which is to come away close to the trunk,
and tho bark will soon "callus" over and
cover tho scar. In forest pruning, it is held
that a branch should be amputated at a foot
or more from the trunk, or else tho excision
will cause knots in tho timber. However
this may bo as applied to forestry, it cannot
apply to tho pruning of ornamental trees ;
for nothing can be uglier than these "snags"
as such projecting old stumps nro cailed. In
training young trees to a stem, do it by de
grees year after year, till you havo denuded
tho stem as high as you wish. Some at once
cut away all the lateral branches of a young
tree, except a few at tho cxtremo top of the
sapling. Others do still worse With a
view of forcing an upward growth, they cut
tho side branches to within a few inches of
the stem, leaving the ugly snags on to push
a few weak twigs next year. ( The result of
this treatment is that tho desired upward
growth is obtained witii a vengeance. Tho
"tern hardly grows in thickness, the sap rises
to tho few uncut boughs at tho top, and you
iret a tall, thin, weakly object, that will
never form a treo at all. It becomes what is
technically called "whippy," becau.-o it
resembles a coachman's long whip, and the
only remedy, if onco tho young treo ha1
been pruned into that fchape, is to take it up
and plant another in its stead, which you
must take care not to servo in tho same
manner.
It is the grorth of tho side branches which
promotes expansion in tho diameter of tho
main stem, and the lower ones must onlv be
removed by degrees ; when thoso higher up
appear sufUcicutly numerous for tho young
tree to bear tho loss of tho lower ones with
impunity. If a young bow shows a propen
sity to grow out of place, or to an undue
length, so as to require regression, this may
bo effected while in a young stage of growth,
by simply pinching off its extremity, thus
arresting its further extension. Tho proper
timo to pruno trees is between the cessation
of their growth in autumn and tho move
ment of their sap tho in spring. Tho
amputation during summer of tho woody
parts of trees is injurious to them in many
ways, and in many species produces a copi
ous discharge of sap (termed "bleeding")
which considerably weakens them. But
tho process of trimming hedges, or (where
there is a fancy for such things) clipping
evergreens Into fantastic shapes, is perform
ed in summer, as this promotes a second
growth from tho parts that nro left untouch
ed, which makes tho foliage and spray deni

.Mrs. Dillingham.
Kxactly tho position that Mrs. Dillingham
occupied in society it would bo hard to de
fine. Kvery body invited her, and yet every
body, without any definito reason, considered
her a little "off color." Slio was beautiful,
she wasaccomplshcd, she talked wonderfully
well, sho was atV in art, literature, socie
ty. Slio was superficially religious, and she
formed tho theater of tho strugglo of a black
angel and u white one, neither of whom ever
won a completo victor)-, or held whatever
advantage, ho gained for any considerable
length of timo. Nothing could be finer than
Mrs. Dillingham in her fino moods; nothing
coarser when tho black angel was enjoying
one of his victories, and tho white angel had
sat down to breathe. It was tho impression
given in theso latter moments that fixed
upon her tho suspicion that sho was not
quite what i-ho ought to be. Tho flower.-,
bloomed where she walked, but thero was
dust on them. Tho cup sho handed to her
friends w.n pure to tho eye, but it had a
muddy taste. She was a wholo woman in
sympathy, power, beauty, and sensibility,
and yet ono felt that somewhere within bho
harbored a devil a refined dovil in ita play,
a gross ono when it hail tho woman at unre
sisting advantage. ScrHntr't Monthly,

Don't stop to tell stories in business hours,

Never "fuol" in business matters.
Learn to act and think for yourself.
Do not kick every one In your path.
Keep ahead rather than behind tho times.
Uso your own brains rather than thoso of

Do not meddle with a business you know

No man can get rich by sitting around

More miles can bo made in a day going

A man of honor respects his word as ho
