With diamond dew the grass was wet, 'Twas in the spring, and gentlest weather, And all the birds of morning met. And caroled in heart together. The wind blew softly o'er the land, And softly kissed the joyous ocean; He walked beside her on the sand, And gave and won a heart's devotion. The thistledown was in the breeze, With birds of passage homeward flying; His fortune called him o'er the seas, And on the shore he left her sighing. She saw his bark glide down the bay— Through tears and fears she could not banish ; She saw his white sails melt away ; She saw them fade, she saw them vanish. And "Go," she said ; "for winds are fair, And love and blessing round you hover ; When you sail backward through the air, Then I will trust the word of lover." Still ebbed, still flowed the tide of years, Now chilled with snows, now bright with roses, And many smiles were turned to tears, And sombre morns to radiant closes. And many ships came gliding by, With many a golden promise freighted ; But nevermore from sea or sky Came love to bless her heart that waited Yet on, by tender patience led, Her sacred footsteps walked unbidden, Wherever sorrow bows its head, Or want and care and shame are hidden. And they who saw her snow-white hair, And dark, sad eyes, so deep with feeling, Breathed all at once the chancel air, And seemed to hear the organ pealing. Till once, at shut of Autumn day, In marble chill she paused and hearkened, With startled gaze where far away The waste of sky and ocean darkened. There, for a moment, faint and wan, High up in air and landward striving, Stern•fore a spectral bark came on, Across the purple sunset driving. Then something out of night she knew, Some whisper beard from heaven dEscended, And peacefully as falls the dew Her long and lonely vigil ended. The violet and the bramble rose Make glad the grass that dreams above her; And freed from time and all its woes, She trusts again the word of lover. —Wm. WINTER, in the Galaxy. *tory for Elmo. NICK NEVINS' SIN ; - OR, - SUSPENDED PAYMENT. "The last dime is deposited: thank heaven for that," exclaimed Nick Nevins, knocking the ashes from his pipe and un• folding the evening paper. "Aud the mortgage"—began his wife Sallie. Nick took up the sentence and finished it: c•Will be lifted. Before to- morrow's wan goes down, the danger that threatened to make us homeless will be averted. We've worked hard, Sallie, you and I; we've scrimped along some way, the goodness only knows hew, but we've done it. We've saved the old place; we've made a home for the children,and now that we are getting old, it's a comfort to know that we may live and die here together. The world's been hard on us. It's shoved us about pretty roughly, but I think, Saljje, with all of its unkindness, we've managed to stow away considerable sunshine." "Ali, Nick, you always were that gener ous that you'd have a fair word to say for the worst. I never was so good. I haven't forgotten the winter that Ruby died—how the cold crept in, and froze first his limbs to numbness, then turned the darling's heart to stone. 1 haven't forgotten that there was no bread in our house to eat, that there was no work to do, and that we could only stand by and see our darling die. I have laid this up against the world, and the bitterness of that hoer is as cruel now as a memory as it then was as a re ality. Even now, when I know that the money is safe in the bank, when I know that the last day's worry is over, I am ex pecting that something will occur to turn aside our fortune." “Nonscnse,Sallie, what can occur ? Look 'a here ! Do you see this bit 3f paper ? Receipt of deposit. Five hundred dollirs ! Is it all cloud and no sunshine when we've been enabled out of our small earnings to lay aside that amount r Time, too, Sallie, that the place was ours. There's a dim- ness iu my eyes, a dancing of letters over the pages, as though they were running into one, a kind of unsteadiness creeping into the world about me, a trembling which I suspect is mine more'n the world's. I am growing old, Sallie ; from now to the end, with you and me, it must be the down hill side of the road.” Nick Nevins rubbed his glasses vigo rously, while his wife Sallie smoothed the cloth of spotless muslin over the well-cov ered pine table. There was a moment's stillness, only the clock ticked mournfully, with a sound of ominous sharpness, as though full of pro phetic fears of the future. Then came a gust of wind sweeping down the streets, shrieking spasmodically in broken quavers through the cracks and crevices of Nick Nevins' well worn home. The loosened clapboards flew wildly, bits of shingles ] fluttered to the ground. Truly this was not much of a place, but it was a poor man's home—more to him than was ever a palace to a king ; for if the palace be leveled to the ground, well filled coffers re place it with a grander one ; but if Nick Nevins' home be shattered, there is noth ing left with which to build another. Suddenly the wind died down to ahreath. Nick Nevins threw up his bands and fell forward, resting on his face. "Nick ! Nick what is it, Nick ?" cried his wife Sallie, lifting the bowed head and looking down into the care-worn features. "It is all gone, all gone !" he gasped. pointing . with trembling finger toward the evening paper. "The good luck 'a gettin' the money," murmured Sallie, "has been too much for him. Nick hasn't been over-strong of late. When the strain that kept him up was gone, he's just wilted right down. I knowed all along how it would be. A cup of tea, Nick, will set you all right." "It is all cone, Sallie, all gone ! The bank is broken !" "No, no, Nick !" cried Sallie, thrusting back the paper, as though refusing to see it printed would make it less a fact. It wasn't much, Sallie, only five hun dred dollars, yet it was all. To-morrow I was to have paid over the money, but to morrow we will be houseless. Out :nto the streets, the winter coming on, Lhe world as merciless as the cold, and heaven more forgetful than either." "A rich man's panio, a rich man's fail ure," is what they call it. From one end aITNTINGDON, PA , FRIDAY, NOVEMBER IG, 1877 of the country to the other the press takes up the words, and print them, trying to force the people to believe in the fallacy. But the people, grown wise from experience, start back in white-faced horror as they contemplate the fearful ruin this centrali zation of wealth is forcing upon them. There can be no rich man's failure, no mote than were the sun shattered to atoms could the planets, indifferent to its ruin, continue its course. Like the fabled Per sian bird, Inftak, the male of which had a hook on one side, the female a ring on the other, and only when united could they fly ; so may the capitalist and laborer, if working together, ascend heavenward, if not they will be forced to the depths. Nick Nevins went to the bank on the morrow in order to satisfy himself that his ruin was sure. Oh hope ! Oh happiness! it had not failed, only suspended. But to his sudden emotion of joy succeeded as quickly one of despair. If it had not failed,—what then ? Was it any better for him ? He must have his money to day. A week from to-day would be too late. He met wild, haggard faces hurry ing hither, saw little earnest groups of men on the corners, heard the words again and again ; "If I can't get the money out, I'm ruined." He noted, too, that these words were not uttered by the millionaires, but by the men of small means who had placed their few hundreds in the bank for safe keeping. A carriage came dashine. by. The oc cupant alighted, entered :famous up town confectioner's, and ordered cake for a party. "It must be the grandest affair of the season," he said carelessly, "so do not spare expense." This was the man whose bank had sus pended payment. This was the man who ' held relentlessly in his well-filled coffers Nick Nevins' hard earned five hundred dollars. This was the man who, presented in himself and his illy-used power, an ex ample of the terrible effect of the cettra ligation of wealth, for he, himself, and all the directors were foreign capitalists, own ing immense shares in a wonderful linter:- can railroad, charging immense sums for freightage over this same road, grinding down the farmers into dust, under heels shod with British gold. This was the man who relentlessly sent. Nick Nevins and scores beside him to ruin. "It might as well be broken," said Nick to his wife Sallie, "for all the good it'll do us.,, As he said, so it was. The mortgage was closed. Nick and Sallie, and the three little children of their old acre, went out into the streets. A few articles left at the pawnbroker's provided them with a shelter. Then sickness fell upon them, followed quickly by death.— The baby's burial exhausted their little means. "The rich man's failure," threw the poor map out of employment ! Nick lost his place. There was no work to be done —at last nothing wherewith to pay for the doing of it. Therefore great railroad com panies said to their employees at "You may work or let it alone—we can't . pay you." It does not seem possible that people can starve to death when we remember how generous in golden grain and luscious fruits is our bounteous, warm hearted mother earth. We can only reconcile ourselves to this fact by remembering that the wealth of the world is divided into a few lion's shares, and all of the millions of unprovided human souls are busied in keeping these rolled up together. To be sure these shares are not always in the same hands, but they remain of .the same bulk. In watching the scramble, the hurry skurry, the struggle and tussle, of rabble, bulls and bears, one is reminded of the sand in an hour glass, each grain wholly unconscious of the ilimitable eternity toward which it is tending. So drift on these human grains of clay or clod. Nick Nevins and his wife were starving. Whose fault was it ? Not his own surely, for Nick had always worked willingly. He had always been a hewer of stone and a drawer of water, and he might go on now in the same old groove, but somehow Nick had grown desperate and unreasonable. He was so unhappily constituted that he must have something to eat. Nick began to reason with himself. Poverty mikes philosophers. If it had been intended, says Nick, that a few were to have the gold, the grain, in fact, all the bread, that the millions were to be left destitute, why the millions would have been created independ ent of the necessities of the favored few. But such, Nick saw, was not the case. To be sure he might dispense with wines, with Delmonico dinners, would be content with bread and water, if these last were permitted him; but with no substitute for these, it became a question as to how he was to subsist. To make the situation more trying, Sallie fell ill. Sallie and Nick had jogged along together for more than thirty years. He had seen the bloom fade from her face, had seen the palor creeping over it, had seen the warm, brown tinted hair grow lustreless and gray, and, poor Nick Nevins held in his heart the faded, the lustreless, and gray image as loyally and tenderly as he had the bloom ing, golden tinted one of years before. He never dreamed that the world contained a better woman than the one he had been walking life's journey with. Loving Sallie, then, as he did, it was a terrible thing for Nick to watch the white face shrinking away day by day, to know that it was not disease, but destitution, that was sending her down to death. What was the world, what was life itself to him, and Sallie gone ? He had lived for Sallie and Sallie's children. He could, if need be, die for them now. I am sure I can't blame him, poor bar assed, tortured man. If you do, try it once. Sit down, even in imagination,— and God forbid it should ever come to you in any other way—and fancy the one or ones you love in all of the world, dying of absolute want. Watch the loving eyes sink back into the cavernous depths dug by famine; see the lip—you remember it rosy and pouting —settle away from the white teeth. Note the white hand, how like a claw it has be come ; then, when you have witnessed this terrible fasting, blame Nick Nevins if you can, for that which follows. The country was in a terrible strait; there was no work to be given, because there was no money to pay for work done. Nick Nevins went out on the street. Something must be done. He was des perate, and a man desperate through hun ger is as insane and dangerous as the man intoxicated with liquor. The banks were closed, but the saloons were open. The poor were starving, but the rich were feasting. Nick's wife and children were dying, but the banker's wife and daughters were dan cing. It was the night of the party, and as Nick walked slowly up and down before the rich man's house, uttering smothered imprecations, the banker came out under the gaslight, and ordered Nick away. Then, says Nick hoarsely, as though try ing to subdue the devil within him : "You've five hundred dollars of my mon ey. Sallie is dying, pay ten or it out, and I'll go away blessing you," "The bank is suspended," says the man shortly. "Until the proper time comes you must wait. Such a fuss as you fel lows make. One would think it a mil lion." "Give me then a little, sir, ever so little, for charity's sake, if not justice." "Not a dime now, not a dime " "Then God judge between us," cries Nick Nevins. There is a blow, a fall, a stooping over a prostrate figure, a heavy, staggering form hurrying unsteadily away. "I've brought you lire, Sallie ! I've brought you bread ! Look up, darling, darling, I'd dig for you, that I would. Sallie ! Sallie ! Oh God ! she's dead, dead !" Over the still prostrate form Nick N:37- ins bends, but there is no sob in his voice, no tears in his eyes. Only God knows and understands the bitterness in his soul. The two little ohildren left, crawled to his side, dragging themselves along slowly, and de• voured the bread which hld fallen in crumbs at his feet. Then comes the end. The government, upon whost: shoulders rest, as every thinking person knows, the whole culpability of Nick Nevins' sin, stops forward to take him in charge. Man found senseless, robbed ! Nick Nev ins breaking a fifty dollar bill at a corner bakery for a loaf of bread Two mornings after they gave him his final trial. The State's attorney wade short work of it. Guilty ? Of course he was Sentenced? To be sure, as he ought to have been ? The estimable binker recovered. Nick went to the penitentiary. His wii was buried in the Potter's fi.3ld, and the miser. able little children will remain in the e)un ty house until the bank resumes payment. .elett Visalia* A Bad Temper. A person always ready to fight is cur tain of the greatest consideration amongst his of her family circle. The lazy grow tired of contending with him ; the timid coax and flatter him ; and as almost every one is timid or lazy, a bad tempered man is sure to have his own way. It is he who commands, and all others obey. It' he is a gourmand, he has what he likes for din ner; and the tastes of all the rest are sub servient to him. She, (we playfully trans fer the gender, as bad temper is of both sexes) has the place she likes best in the drawing-room. nor do her parents, nor her brothers and sisters venture to take her favorite chair. If she wants to get up a party, mamma will dress herself in spite of her headache ; and papa, who hates those dreadful soirees, will go up stairs and put on his poor old white neckcloth, though he has been toiling at ehambers all day, and must be there early in the morn ing—he will go out with her, we say, and stay for the cotillion. If the family are taking their tour in the summer, it is she who ordains whither they shall go, and when they shall stop. If he comes home late, the dinner is kept fbr him, and no one dares to say a word, though ever so hungry. If he is in good humor, every one frisks about and is happy. How the servant jumps at his bell, and runs to wait upon him ! How they pit up patiently, and bow eagerly they run out to fetch cabs in the rain ! Whereas fur you and me, who have the tempers of angels, and never was known to be angry or complain, nobody cares whether we are pleased or not. Our wives go to the milliner's and send us the bill, and we pay for . it; our John finishes reading the newspaper be fore he answers our bell, and brings it to us ; our sons 101 l in the arm-chair which we should like—fill the house with their young men, and smoke in the dining room ; our tailors fit us badly; our butchers give us the youngest mutton; our tradesmen dun us more quickly than other people, because they know we are good-natured ; and our servants go out whenever they like, and openly have their friends to sup per in the kitchen. Bad Language. How perverted, corrupted, debased, de graded, low and coarse must be the tastes, sensibilities and moral feelings of men who allow themselves, without thought, • with out respect for the sanctities of religion or the requirements of common decency, to intermix their commoin conversation with horrible, revolting and blasphemous oaths and imprecations. We write this in the parlor of a hotel in a city renowned for its intelligence, re finement and morality, and just under the window sit a company of men, whose con versation is marked in almost every sen tence by coarse vulgar oaths. Perhaps they are not conscious of being heard by any other party, and if so, much the worse, as they are now exhibiting themselves as they really are. Their trite character is being made manifest. And how sad to witness such debasement of our common nature; such evidence of a total lack of reverence for all that the better portion of our race hold sacred, and lack of common decency as well. Wherever such men have influence, that influence is bad. They breed and spread more poison wher ever they go, and are as destructive to the true interests of communities as famine and pestilence combined would be to their bodies. And yet for the vice there is no earthly nor unearthly excuse. In this as well as in other respects there is great need of reformation in many parts of our whole country.—Ex. The Skirt Grab. There was the land "grab" and the sal ary "grab," but the most universal "grab" since the day the Children of Israel "grab bed" quails in the wilderness, is the one made nowadays by every man's wife or sweetheart, as she drops her left shoulder, gracefully, swings the upper half. of the body around toward the rear, "grabs" a handful of skirts, straightens up and moves off with a face full of holy and calm con tent, and an aureole of serene satisfaction illuminating her countenance. The idea was probably cribbed from the devil, by observing him pick up his tail, tuck it over his left arm and saunter off on a promenade among the hypocrites and Pharisees, the "lower gude and rigidly righteous." A Mammoth Beast, DISCOVERY OF A MONSTER CONTAINING THE REMAINS OF A HUMAN BEING— LARGEST ANIMAL REMAINS EVER RES URRECTED. Carthage (Mo.) Patriot.] Mr. Henry Woodard owns a stock ranch in the Indian Territory, in the Peoria na tion, on which is situated the big sulphur spring. The spring is surrounde I by a quagmire, which is very deep and "slushy," and so soft that it will not bear any considerable weight. Mr. Woodard lately undertook to curb up the spring in order to get water more easily, and while working in the mire came upon what ap peared to be an enormous bone. He at once began an examination which disclos ed the startling fact that it was the head of some mammoth beast. His curiosity was aroused, and with the assistance of three other men he began the work of ex cavation. For four days they worked, but did not succeed in bringing the monster to the surface. They threw off the marl, but could not lift the head of this golitic giant. They found the skeleton well pre served, and the immense teeth still set in the jaws. The jaws were both in place and the spinal column attached to the cranium. The earth was thrown off from the body to the length of twenty feet, but still the gigantic skeleton remained be na.ath. Three of the front ribs were forc ed out and proved by measurement to be each eight feet in length. The dirt was re morel from the iuside of the osseous structure, and there lay the skeleton of a human being with 102 flint arrow points and 15 flint knives. The cranium indi cated that it was the skeleton of an Indian. It would have been impossible for the man to have been inside the animal with out having bean swallowed by him, and this theory is substantiated by the fact that the bones of the right side of the skeleton were broken and mashed, appa rently by force. The monster, therefore, must have been carnivorous, which is also proven by the teeth, which exhibit the marked characteristics of a fish eating beast. A large molar and two incisors, taken from the upper jaw, were exhibited to us at our office yesterday, the largest one weighing eight pounds and measuring eight by four inches in size. There are two large molars and two blunt tusks on each side of each jaw, the teeth between the molars and the tusks are incisors, hav ing from two to six points and correspond ing prongs to each tooth. ha front of the tusks the teeth are similar to those of most carnivorous animals in shape. All the bones indicate that they have been buried for an incredibly long period, as they crumble rapidly when brought in contact with the atmosphere. Every sir cumstance goes to show that these are the largest animal remains ever resurrected, and the teeth, tusks and structure of the head and jaws prove unmistakably that it was of the carnivorous class. Autumns? Tints. WHY THE LEAVES CHANOE-IT IS NOT JACK FROST'S WORK. It is very curious to observe the regu larity with which we are told in the au Winn that "the first frost will change the color of the leaves," whereas the frost has nothing to do with the change. It has, indeed, sometimes happened in New Eng land that the foliage has changed, as if by magic, in a single night, so that upon look ing out of the window in the morning, the eye was surprised with the spectacle of the world well nigh on fire; and since this transformation took place in connection with the mercury at a low point, the whole affair is referred to the agency or Jack Frost. But why not refer to this prestid igitator the glowing tints of the apple, the rich erimso4 of the velvet peach, and the purple of the plum ? Many years ago this error was pointed out by an eminent botan ist, who showed that the gorgeous color of the autumn leaf came in the regular pro cess of ripening ; and though botany is generally studied in schools, the old notion comes back with the beavers every year showing that error, in common with truth, especially when supported by the vov pop 'di, will "rise again," however deservedly crushed to earth. Leaves find their parallel in man, as al ready observed, and, like the human spe cies, they may ripen suddenly. If, how ever, any one chooses to-make a mystery of the intensity of the autumnal colors, there should be no great difficulty in explaining the variety. Indeed, the apparent superi ority over the strength of color in the foli age on the Continent of Europe may be attributed chiefly to this variety. In Great Britain the climate is evidently unfavora ble to the production of bright forest-tones, but in parts of Germany the brilliancy of certain kinds of leaves is quite equal to that of the corresponding varieties in North America. At the same time the greens of Europe are quite different from those of our own land, where beginning with a burnt green in the Sonth7 we pass north ward along the Atlantic seaboard, reaching the true green of the greatest of the hay producing States, the State of Maine. Every one has noticed the unparalleled green of the "Emerald Isle," which be comes a pale sea green in Scotland, a whitcish-green in the South of England and in France,—only to ohange to an ashen green in Germany, and a sombre olive in the Italian States.' But we are remarking upon the variety of the autumnal tints in our own country. This is explained by the fact that, while in Europe there are only forty trees that attain to a height of thirty feet, in North America there are no less than one hun• Bred and forty—hence our forests flash like the plane tree that "the Persian adorn ed with his mantles and jewels."—Apple ton's Journal. What the Microscope Reveals. Lewenbock tells us of an insect seen with the microscope, of which twenty seven millions would only equal a mite. Insects of various kinds may be seen in the cavities of a grain of sand. Mold is a forest of beautiful trees, with the branches, leaves and fruit. Butterflies are fully feathered. Hairs are hollow tubes. The surface of our bodies is covered with scales like a fish ; a single grain of sand would cover one hundred and fifty of these scales, and yet a scale covers five hundred pores. Through these narrow openings the perspiration forces itself like water through a seive, Each drop of stagnant water contains a world of living creatures, swimming with as much liberty as whales in the sea. Each leaf has a colony of insects grazing on it, like cows in a meadow, OUT in Chicago gas is down to $1.65 per 1000 feet. Ono of the Causes of Hard Times, MORAL : LET Rim MEN PAY CABLE TO TUE POOR MEN WHO DO THEIR WORK If the time ever comes when an Ameri can pays cash down for what he gets, there is a certain Detroit blacksmith, says the Free Press, who wants to be alive and see the phenomenon. His business history is, perhaps, the business history of hundreds of others. He rents the shop. The land lord wants his rent the day it is due. He has to pay cash down for his iron, his °oat, and whatever else he uses in the shop. Up to a day or two ago he ran three forges. His men have families, and must have their wages every Saturday. The patron• age of the shop is what is called "first class." That is, men of wealth send their horses there to be repaired. Pass the shop any hour in the day, and you will see from four to a dozen vehicles there to be over hauled, and the shoeing shop full of horses. The income of the shop is over $2OO per week. Not one patron out. of a dozen has paid cash down for his, work. They have sent it there without the least idea of pay ing anything until the bill was sent in. Along about Friday the blacksmith gets into a buggy and drives around to collect. He has accounts footing up two, three or fuur thousand dollars, some a year old, all against. "good men," as the phrase goes, and the amounts ranging from 75 cents to $35. He calls on A, and A takes the bill, looks it over and says: "Come in again ;" or "I can't pay it to day," or he has some other excuse. He may have had his hor ses shod three months before. He knows that the smith has had to keep up his rent, pay his man and put down cash for stock. The smith is poor, while he is rich, yet he hands the bill back without thought or care of how the smith is to get along. B does the same, C is not in, D is off on a trip, and E, perhaps pays a little on the bill and says : “Come in the first of the month." This particular blacksmith carried around with him last Friday and S.iturday over $3,000 worth of accounts, called on forty seven "good men," yet he did not collect one shilling! He had to pay out that week $l2O for rent, stock and labor, and was thus $l2O worse off than the week be fore. When asked why he dil not insist on cash down he answered : "L..lt me make such a rule and my shop would be deserted. Men worth $lOO,OOO would take it as an insult, yet here is a bill of $4 against a wan worth twice $lOO,OOO which he has avoided paying for the last six months." The other day oae forge was hauled off. Thirteen vehicles needing repairs stood at the door, but one of the workmen was al lowed to go because money to pay him could not be raised, On the accounts rep resenting $3,000 the smith has paid out over $2,000 in cash fnr labor, stock and so forth. Each debtor is reputed to be worth at least $5,000, and some arc known to b. 3 worth $300,000, but the accounts can be bought for fifty cents on the dollar. There is a general cry that business is flat, and men are wondering when it will revive. Perhaps the way to revive bu. - ness is for men to pay their debts. Perhaps a still better way would be to pay cash down. Firma representing from $lO,OOO to $10(,000 capital can "carry" a few debt ors, but the .500 -mall concerns who have to turn their capital over earth week must have ready pay or go under. People who can pay, shirk payment. They will carry full wallets, rush their work in ahead of all others, demand the• very best, and ye' "throw" a bill of twelve shillings until the creditor gets discouraged and cancels the account. What You Do, Do Well. When you undertake to do anything, be in earnest about it; do it with your might. Fortune and f'me are often lost by not being in earnest. This is a real world—a world f real work, real success, real con flicts, real failures, real triumphs, real defeats. And let no one be so over oonfi dent in his own abilities as to look with indifference upon the difficulties before hira—the danger and trials that he must pass *u order to reach the goal upon which his eye is fixed. Full and glorious success never yot did crown the languid and • ia diffent exercises of the powers of mind and body. It acquires effort to push one's craft against the current of rivalry, jeal ousy and vice ; and if one would 4ia progress marked by complete triumph, his efforts must be well-directed, constant, and unrelaxing. But he who feels that he has only to lie inactive and wait for the wird of fortune to drift him into the havc.a of wealth and fame, has lost every prom - c! success, and is in far more danger oi ulti mate disaster than the tempest tossed mar iner, though his mast be gouc, and his vessel shattered and torn by the raging sea. Be in earnest; meet the difficuhies which daily arise with determination to conquer and rise above them. Let not your ad versary find you sleeping or dreaming of an easy conquest. Too much confidence in one's power's is fatal to success, and often brings defeat most disastrous. Be faithful, be true, be kind, be firm, be earn est. American Girls. Your true American girl is a very charming being. Like all creatures rear ed in freedom, she possesses an untaught grace and vigor of mind as well as of body. She is no helpless puppet, like her Euro pean prototype, pulled about by hidden wires, and kept perpetually in a box. Bred amid the healthful atmosphere of a social system of exceptional purity, res pected, honored, and guarded from baby hood by chivalrous natures that surround her, she learns to think and act far her self, and to think and act aright. It is well nigh impossible to overestimate her infltx ence on -our social system. Reared at her side the American youth grows up with an instinctive reverence for and de sire to protect helpless innocence and maid. enly purity. The salons to which she lends the charm of her winning graces and youthful sweetness are more potent for good than were the salons of Reeamier. or De Stael. The love that she inspires is a young man's best shield against tempt*. tine. She does not herself understand-0 the smiling maiden—what good she has done and is doing every day. Yet her white image has waved back many a youth from the pathway of temptation, her clear eyes lent light to the comprehension of better things.
