The llxpeudlture of Money.
Merchant of lirooklyn. orNcwIott, is there

tell you. There is a young man In your store
wandering off into bad amusements. The salary
you gic linn may meet lavful expenditures,
but not the unrm indulgence in which he has
entered, aud he takes by theft that which you
do not gne him in lawful salary.
How brightly the patli of unrestrained
amusement opens. The young man says.

economv, I'll get money somehow. What a

Crack the w liio. and over the turnpike! Come,

w 01 kiug ipeu hear tho clatter of tho hoofs, and
look up olid say, "Why, I wonder where those
fellows get their money from! Ve have to toll
and drudge. Thev do nothing." To these gay
men life is a thrill and an excitement. They
stare at other people, and in turn are
stared at. The watch chain jin
fflcs. The cup foams The cheeks
flush. The ejes flash. The midnicht hears
their guffaw. Ttiey swagger. They j.istle de
cent men oft the sidewalk. They take the name
f God in vain. They parody the hymn they
learned at their innlueVs knee; and to all pict
ures f coming disaster thev cry out. "Who
cares!" and to the counsel of some Christian
fnend. "Who are you?" Passing along the
sticet some night, von hear a shriek in a grog
shop, the lattle of the watchman's club, the
rush of the police. What is the matter now?
Oh, this reckless young man bas been killed in
a grog shop tight. Carry him home to his fath
er's hon-e. Parents will come down and wash
his wound-, and close his eyes in death. They
torsive him all he ever did, although he cannot
in his silence ask it. The prodigal has got home
at last. Mother will go td her little garden,
and get the sweetest flowers, and twist them
into a chaplet tor the silent heart of the way
ward boy, and push back from the bloated brow
thi'louglocks that were once her pi ide. And
the air will be rent with the agony. The great
dramatist says "How sharper than a serpent's
tooth it is to have a thankless child."
I go lurther, and say those are unchristian
amusements which become the ,chief business
of a man's life. Lile Is an earnest thing.
Whether wo weie born in a palace or hovel;
whether wo arc affluent or pinched we have to
woik. If you do not sweat with toil, yon will
sweat with disease. You have a soul that is to
be transhgurcd amidst the pomp of a judgment
dav; aud after the sea has sung its last chant,
aud the mountain shall have eolne down in an
avalanrhe of rock, you will live and thinkand
act. high on a throne where seraphs sing or
deep in a dungeon where demons bowl. In a
woild where there is so much to do for your
selves and so much to do for others, God pity
that man who has nothing to do.
The Ileal Purpose of Amusement.
Your sports arc merely means to an end.
They are alleviations and helps. The arm of
toil is the only arm strong enough to bring up
the Ducket out of the deep well of pleasure.
Amusement is only the bower where business
and philanthropy rest while on their way to
stirring achievements. Amusements are merely
the lines that grow about the anvil of toll and
the blossoming of the hammers. Alas for the
man who spends his life in laboriously doing
nothing, his days in bunting up lounging
places and loungers, his nights in seeking out
some gas-lighted loolery! The man who al
wajshason his sporting jacker. ready to hunt
for game in the mountain or fish in the brook,
with no time to pray, or work or read, is not so
well oil as the grajhound that runs by his side
or the fl bait with which he whips the stream.
A man who docs not work does not know how
to play. If God had intended us to do nothing
but laugh he would not have given us shoulders
with which to lift, and hands with which to
wnck. and brains with which to think. Ihe
auiuseu'euts of life are merely the orchestra
playing while the great tragedy of life plunges
through its five acts infancy, childhood, man
hood, old age and death. Then exit the last
earthly opportunity. Enter the overwhelming
rialitics of an eternal world!
I go further, aud say tha. all those amuse
ments are wrong which lead into bad company.
If you go loanj placj where you havetoasso
cia'to with the intemperate, with the unclean,
with the abandoned, however wejl they may be
dres-ed. In the name of God quit it. They will
despoil vour luuurc. They will undermineyour
moral character. Ihey will drop you when you
aie destroyed. They will give not 1 cent to
support jour children when yon are dead.
They will weep not one tear at your burial.
They will chuckle over your damnation.
I had a friend at the West a rare lricnd. He
wascneof the first to welcome me to my new
home. To fine personal appearance he added
a generosity, frankness, and ardor of nature
that made me lov nimlik" a brother. But I
sawevil peopl- gathering around him. They
caiueupfr.ini the saloons, from the gambling
hell--. They plied him with a thousand arts.
They seized upon his social nature, and he
could not stand the charm. They drove him on
tho rocks, like a ship full-wingeu", shivering on
the breakers. I used to admonish him. I
would say, "Now I wish you would quit these
bad habits and become a Christian." "Oh," he
would reply. "I would like to; I would like to;
but I have gone so far 1 don't think there is any
wav back." In his moments of repentance, he
would go home and take his little girl of 8
years, and embrace her convulsively, and cover
her with adornments, aud strew around her
pictures and toys, and everything that could
make her happy; and then, as though bounded
by an evil spirit, he would go out to the en
flaming cup and the house of shame, like a fool
to the correction of the stocks.
Another Good Test In Choosing.
Again: Any amusement that gives you a dis
taste for domestic life is bad. How many
hright domestic circles have beenliroken up by
sinful amusements! The father went off, the
mother went off, the child went off. There are
to-day the fragments before me of blasted
households. Oh. if you have wanderedaway 1
would like to charm you back by the sound of
that one word "home." Do you not know that
yon have but little more time to give to domes
tic welfare? Do you not see, father, that your
children are soon to go out into the world, and
all the influence for good you are to have over
them von must have now? Death will break in
01. your conjugal relations, and alas. If you
have to stand er the grave of one who per
ished from your neglect!
I saw a waj-ward husband standing at the
the death-bed ir his Christian wife, and I saw
her point to a ring on her finger, and heard her
sav to her husband, "Do you see that ring?"
He replied. "Yes, I see it." "Well." said she.
"do you remember who put it there?" "Yes,"
eaid ne. "I put it there,' and all tho past
seemed to rush upon him. By the memory of
that day v hen, in the presenre or men and
angels, you promised to be faithful In joy and
sorroi., and In sickness and in health; by the
inomnry of those pleasant hours when you sat
together in your new home talking of a bright
future: bv the cradle and the joyful hour
when one life was spared and another given;
by that sick-bed, "when the little one
lifted op the hands and called for
help, and yon knew he must die, and
he put one arm around each of your necks, and
btought jou very near together in that dying
kiss; by the little grave in Greenwood that you
never think of without a rush of tears; by the
family Bible, where, amid stories of heavenly
love, is the brief butexpresMve record of births
and deaths; bv the neglects of the past, and by
the agonies of the future: by a judgment day,
when husbands and wtvcs,parents and children,
in immortal groups, will stand to be caught up
in shining array, or to shrink down into dark
ness; bv all that, I beg you give to home your
nest aurcuuus
Aft, mr lriends there is an hour coming
wbc.i our past life will probably pass before us
In review. It will be our last hoar. If from
our death-pillow we have to look hack and see
a life spen; in sinful amusement, there will be
a dart that will strike through our soul sharper
than the. dagger with which Virginius slew his
child. The nietnoryof the past will make us
quake like Macbeth. The iniquities and not
ing through which we have passed will come
upon us, weird and skeleton as Meg Jlernltesl
Death, the old Shylock, will demand and take
the remaining pound of flesh and the remain
ing droo of blood: and upon our last oppor
tunity for repentance and our last chance lor
heaven, the curtain will drop forever.

Cereals and Produce.
The feature of the week past has been the
sharp advance in cereal lines. Corn, oats
and rye are 6 to 8c per bushel higher thau
at the close ot last week.
Government reports within the past few
days have added strength to the upward
movement. These reports show much
ligh,ter stocks in the country than the aver
age estimate. Ear corn has sold of late in
carload lots at 70c per bushel. Bye has
passed the dollar line, aud wheat is up to
?1 0G.
Our city mills have advanced the price
of fancy flour 25c per barrel this week and
prospects are ior a still further advance.
In grocery lines the feature of the week has
been the rise of c per pound in coffee, both
green and roasted. The produco trado bas
developed nothing new. The looked-for rise
in creamery butter failed to show up, and
prices are substantially the same as a week ago.
When creamery butter sells in a jobbing way
atSSS3Sc per pound, as it has done the past
week, it becomes a luxury and consumers di
minish. The decrease of consumers has
checked the upward movement. The loss in
butter consumption has been great gain to
the dealers in buttcrine, who are now reaping
their greatest harvest.
Hides and Calf Skins.
The demand for light bides is scarcely as
active as it was last week, but prices are practi
cally the same. Steer hides are holding up well,
when it is considered that quality of those of
fered Is at the lowest during the months of
February and March. Grubs are now getting
in their best work, and the hides now coming to
market are below the average in quality. Calf
skins aro beginning to come in freely, and
prices are steady. From now until summer is
the time for the largest supplies in this line.
The fact that price of calf skins remains steady
at this date is taken by dealers as evidence that
there will be no further decline.
In an interview with a leading dealer it was
developed that Irish hides are largely used in
this country for the same purpose as buff hides,
and that prices are firm, so that receipts from
that quarter will not aid in lessening prices of
buffs. From every quarter of the globe hides
are brought to America to be worked up into
leather. The United Ktates is now the largest
leather producing country of the world, and
notwithstanding that it ii the great cattle
raising country of tho world, is forced to draw
from the ends of the earth for tanner's sup

ished bv Electric and Philadelphia Gas.
Electric was weak on call yesterday, bnt was
stronger on the street in the afternoon on the
anpearanceof a few local orders. There was
no outside demand for it.

Sorts of scarcity of fuel In all parts of the city,

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
Cold weather proved adverse to trade in
this line, and the wind up of tbe week was
quiet. Eggs are a sbade firmer, but 17c per
dozen is the top of the market. Supply of
creamery butter is light. Price is now too
high for tho average pocketbook, and tbe con
sumer prefers oleo, at one-halt tbe price of
butter. High grade cheeso Is very firm and
prospects are for higher prices. There is a con
tinued good demand for good potatoes, and
outside quotations rule. Apples move slowly
for the reason that prices aro too high. A good
apple is now about as expensive as a good
orange Tropical fruits of all kinds go slow on
account of cold weather.

tfEW YORK STOCKS.
Two Hours' Business in Shares Equals the
Trading of All the Rest or the Week
Usual Stagnation in the
General List.
New York, March 14. Tho stock market to
day displayed, unexpectedly, considerable ani
mation, and the business of the two hours was
equal to most of tne full days for tbe past
week. There was a strong tond throughout the
session, and material advances were made In
some of tbe leading stocks, especially with tho
promise of a continuance of the upward move
ment into next week.
The opening was generally firm, though
rather irregular, but was followed by a,de
cidedly strong market, in which special activity
and strength were shown In Lackawanna, Bur
lington, St. Paul and many specialties. There
was a rush to sell Ltckawanna at the -opening,
but it soon became evident that there were
supporting orders in the stock, all the offers
being accepted w itli considerable bidding for
the stock. The hears withdrew their forces in
tho face of this manipulation, and nothing was
left to oppose tbe upward bent ot the marker.
There was the usual dullness and stagnation
in the general list, but the stocks mentioned
were joined by some others, while among the
specialties Rome, Watertown and Ogensburg
continued to advance rapidly on slight sales,
and scored a final gam of 8 per cent, closing at
tbe highest price National Cordage. Colorado
Coal aud others wore conspicuous for strength,
which continued right up to the close, notwith
standing a further loss of tbe banks' reserve,
which is now brought below S10.00o,000 for the
first time in some weeks. The usual realizing
sales in the last few minutes bad scarcely any
perceptible influence on the list, and the close
was quiet and firm at tbo best figures.

slocks on the Jfew York Stock Exchange yester

Quit Everything Else.
S. S. S., is the only permanent cure for contagious blood
Taint. Old chronic cases that physicians declare incur
able are cured in every instance where S. S. S., has had
a fair trial.
I honestly believe that S. S. S. saved
my life. I was afflicted with the very
worst type, of contagious blood poison
and was almost a solid sore from head
to foot. The physicians declared my
case hopeless. I quit everything else
and commenced taking S. S. S. After
taking a few bottles I was cured sound
and well.
