With prim diginity the lady marshalled her two charges out, muttering something aboat the "extortionate ideas of landlords now-a-days."

There goes that everlasting bell again ! • I'll heal It out by utferoots, if this thing goes on much lo er. I'll tear down the bell, and put up place at auction." Another, lady, but quite different from the other—a slender little cast down lady, with a head that drooped like a lily of the valley, and a dress of brown silk, that had been mended, and turned, and re turned, re trimmed ; and even Nahum Briggs, man and bachelor though he was, could see how . shabby it e - th.

As Nahum Briggs stood looking at her, there came back to him the sun-shiny days of yodth ; a field of blooming clover crim soned the JOne light like waves of blood, and i, blue, eyed girl leaning over the ileum with her bright hair barred with level sun set gold, and he knew that he was standing face to face with Barbara Wylie, the girl be had quarreled with years and years ago, and whose blue dyes had kept him an old bache lor all his Mb long.

"Nothing' now," amid Barbara, resolutely brushing away the tears.

EDITONAL 80 1 / 3 110JUNG. —MOO t people think the selection of suitable matter for a newspaper the easiest part of the business. How great an error. Ws look over fifty exchange papers daily, from which to select enough for one, especially when the question is not what shall, but what shall not be selected, is no very easy task. If every person who reads a newspaper could have edited it, we should have less com plaints. Not =frequently it is ;he case that an editor looks over all his _exchange papers for someting Interesting, and can find absolutely nothing. Every paper Is drier than a contribution box,- and yet some thing mud be bed—his paper must be out with something In it, and he does the bathe can. To an editor who has the least care in what he selects, the writing he has to do is the easiest part of his labor. Every subscriber thinks the paper Is printed for his own benefit, and if there Is nothing that suits him, ft must be good for nothing. As many subscribers as an editor has, so many tastes bas he to consult. One want' something very smart and an other something sound. One likes anec dotes, fun and frolic, and the next door neighbor wanders that a man of sense will put such stuff in his paper. Something spicy comes out and the edi tor is a dull fool, and so between them all the poor fellow gets well abused. They never reflect that what does not snit them will please the next man, but they insist that If the paper does not twit them it is good for nothing, and will itop it right off. —Exchange. Ws clip the following from an mrchange., and give it to our readers because of its truthfalness. It is rather* queer piece of poetic prose, and yet contains more truth than poetry. We commend it to the notice of all business mtm : "When trade grew slack, and notes fell due, the merchant's face grew long and blue ; his dreams were troubled through the night with sheriff 4, bail+, all In eight. At last his wife unto him said, 'Rise up at once, get out of bed, and get your paper, Ink, and pen, and say these words unto all men: `My goods I wish to sell to you, and to your wives and daughters too ; my pricei they shall be so low, that each shall buy be fore they go.' "He did as his good wife advised, and in the paper advertised. Crowds came and bought of all he had ; his notes were paid, his dreams were glad, and he will tell you to this day how well did printer's ink repay. "He told us, with a knowing wink, he was saved with printer's ink. 'The other in a place as tight, contented was the press to diet. And did not let the people know of what he had or where to ge. "His drafts were due and were not paid ; a levy on his goods was made ; the store was closed until the Bale, and for some time he was in jail. A bankrupt now without a cent, at leisure he can deep repent, that he was Aselish and unwise, and did not freely advertise." GOD BMW TEIX WOXIN /LED Billies.— They were once so scarce in California that as a woman walked on the street men would atop and stare at her as at an angel. Babies were so scarce that once in a theatre in Ban Francisco, where a mother had tak en her child, it began to cry Just as the orchestra struck up; a fellow in the pit shouted: "Stop those fiddles and let the baby' cry, I haven't heard • such a sound for ten years." The audience applauded the sentiment, the orchestra stopped, and the baby continued its pertbrmauce maid universal and unbounded enthuslaem !

"Well, if I ever did see such girls in my born days. It's tense, tease, from morning till night, but what yon must know all about everything that you haven't any bus iness to know anything about. Such in quisitive, pestiferous critters as you are When I wss young, girls was different; they minded their business, and didn't go sailing around with a whole string of beaux, getting their beads filled with all kinds of nonsense. I never dared to ask my aunts, married or single, about any of their affairs. Potty mess I'd have got in if I had. When they offered to tell me anything pf their own accord, I kept my mouth shut and list ened. Everything is different now-a days ; young folks have no respect for their eld dere. But as I see lam not going to have any peace till I do tell you, why jist listen, and don't let me hear a word out of one of your mouths till I get through." "That's right, Aunt Sally; go right ahead, do, and we'll keep perfectly still." "Well, you see, when I was about seven teen years old, I was living in Utica, in the State of New York.

"One evening he came to me—l remem ber it as well as if it were only yesterday.— When he came into the parlor, where Iwas sitting alone, he came up to me and—but now, pshaw ! girls, I don't like to tell the rest." "Oh, Aunt Bally, for mercy's sake don't stop ; tell us' what he did." "Well, as I said, he came up to me, and put his arms around me, and rather hugged me while I got excited and some frustrat ed; it was a long time ago, and I don't know but what I might have hugged him back's little. Then I felt—b . ut now just clear out, every one of you, I shan't tell you any more." "Goodness, gracious, no, Aunt Sally. Tell us how you felt. Didn't you feel good And what did he do next ?" "Oh, inch torments as you are ? I was like any other girl, and pretty soon I pre tended to be mad about it, and pushed him away, though I wasn't mad a bit. You must know that the house where I lived was on one of the back streets of the town. There were glass doors la the parlor, which opened right out over the street, and no balcony or anything of the kind in front of the house. As It was in the summer season these doors were opened and the abutters drawn to. I stepped back* little from him and when he edged up close I pushed him away again. I pushed herded than I in tended to, and don't you think, girl; the poor Iblkm lost his balance and fell through one of the doors into the street! Yea, It's so.

Did it hurt him much f" "Well, it I must, I must. He fell bead first, and as he was going I caught him by the legs of his trowsers. I held. on for a minute and tried to pull him back, but his suspenders gale way, and the poor young man fell clear out of his pintaloons into a whole parcel of ladlea — and gentlemen pass. ing along the street." "Oh, Aunty, Aunty, Lordy, Lordy ?" "There, that's right ; squeal and giggle as much as you want to. Girls that can't hear about a little thing like that without tearing around the room, and he-he-ing in such away, don't know enough to come when it rains.

I heard others say that he did the fastest running ever known in that part of the country, and that he never stopped or looked behind until he was two miles out of town. He sent me a note a few days afterward, saying that the engagement must be brOken off as be could never look me in the face again after what had happened. He went out West, and I believe he Is preaching out In Illinois. But be never married. He was very modest, and I suppose he was so badly frightened that time that he never dared to trust himself near a woman again. That, girls, is the reason I never married.

One day after I bad been at work three months or more, my friend there, Mr. 8., who holds his age remarkably well, came into the store and bought a large bill of shovels and tongs, sad-irons and pans, buckets, scrapers and scuttles, for he was to be married next day, and was supplying his household in advance, as was the groom's custom in those days. The articles were packed on the barrow and_ made a load suf ficiently heavy for a young mule. But more willing than able, I startled off, proud that I could move each amass on the wheel barrow. I got on remarkably well till I struck the rand road, now seventh avenue, leading to my friend B.'s house. There I tolled and tugged, and tagged and toiled, but could not budge the load np the hill, the wheel going to its fall half diameter in the mud every time I would try to propel for ward. Finally a good natured Irishman passing by with his dray took my barrow , self and all on his vehicle, and in considera tion of my promise to pay him a bit landed me at my destination. I counted the arti cles carefully as I delivered them, and with my empty barrow trudged my way back whistling with glee over my triumph over difficulty. Some weeks after I paid the Irishman the bit and never got it back, from my employers. Bat to the moral. A merchant had witnessed my struggles and how zealously I labored to deliver that of hardware ; he even watched me to the house and aaw me count each. piece u I leaded it in the doorway: He sent for me next day, asked my name, told me he had a reward for my industry • and cheerfulness under diflictilty, in the shape pf a five hun dred dollar clerkship in his establishment. I accepted, and now, after nearly half a century has passed, I look back and say I wheeled myself into all I own, for that re ward of perseverance was my grand step ping stone to fortune." The speaker was a very wealthy banker, a man of influence and position, and one universally respected for many good quali ties of head and heart. Boys, take a moral from this little story and- be willing and industrious. You do not know how many eyes are upon you to dfscover whether you are are sluggish and careless, or industrious and willing, or how many there are who, if you are moral and worthy, will give you a stepping stone to wealth and position.

Yocno Mss.—An exchange truly say; : "Thousands of young men are to-day drift ing help/wily about on the ocean of lite, vainly hoping that ere long some favorable breeze will spring up and drive their vessels into some safe harbor. - Where that safe harbor is they have no idea ; because they have no definite object in view. They have never decided upon any course of life, but permit their actions to bisbapedand mould. ed by the Circumstances of the hoar. Is it any wonder that disasters follow each other In quick succession? More men are ruined through indecision than from a wrong ale eiaion.

Such is substantially the testimony of a farmer, who has known how hard the strug gle for a footing on free soil, without capi al is, and how valuable, and comparatively cheap are the aids which goods reading brings to him.
