THE MAXiniSn WIFE.
Er.ra Newton had jnsl finished rook
ing orcr bis yearly itccounts. 'Well,"
asked his wife, looking tip, " how do
you conio out V
" I find," said hor liuxbanJ, " that
my expenses during the I est year
have born lliirty-scrcn ccula over a
thousand dollar."
"And yonr income baa been a
thousand dollars."
"Yes. 1 managed p-otly well,
didn't J?"
" Do you think it manageing wrll
to cioeod your luoomo?" aiJ his
wife.
" What's thii ly scucnccols ?'" hUcJ
Mr. Newton, lightly.
" Not much, to bo sure, but still
something. It scents to me that we
ought to havo saved, instead of falling
behind."
" Hut bow can wo savo on this sal
ary, Elizabeth ? Wo haven't lived
extravupnntly. Still it ectiu to have
taken Hall."
" Pcrh.ips thero is somolhing in
which wo might retrench. Suppofo
you mention some of the items."
The most Important tiro hoiicc
rcnl, ono hundred and City dollars, and
Articles of food, five hundred dollurs."

' "That would be something like
carrying nnd umbrella when the sun
shines.''
" Still it is well to have aa umbrella
in the house.''
"I can't controvert your logic, Eli
zabeth, but I am afraid wo shau't be
able to save anything this year. When
I get my salary raise J, it will bo time
enough to think of that.''
" Let mo make a proposition to
you,'' said Mrs. Newton. " You say
ono half of your income has Li en ex
pended on articles of food. Are yuu
willing to allow me that sum for the
purpose V
" You guarantee to pay nil bills out
ofitr
" Yes.''
"Then I will bifl the responsibili
ty upon you with pleasure. Hut 1
can tell you beforehand you won't be
able to save much out of it.'
" Perhaps not. At any rate I will
engngo not to exceed it "
"That's well I bhouldu't relish
having any additional bills to pay.
As I am paid every month, I will nt
each payment band you hulf the
money.''
The different characters of husband
and wife may bo judged from conver
sation which has been recorded. Mr.
Newton had but little prudenco or
foresight. Ho lived chiefly for the
present and seemed to fancy that
whatever contigencios might ariso in
the future, ho would somehow bo pro
vided for. Now trust in Providence
is a very proper feeling, but there is
a good deal of truth in tho old adage
that God will help those who help
themselves.
Mrs. Newton on tho contrary, bad
been brought up in a family which
was compelled to be economical, and
although she was not disposed to de
ny hursolf comforts, yet she felt that
it was desirable to procure thorn at n
fair price.
Tbo time at wbioh this conversa
tion took place was at the oouimoocc
tnont of the second year ot their mar
ried life.
Tho Grst stop which Mrs. Newton
took, on aceepting tho charge of tbe
household expensos, was to institute
the praotico of paying cash for all ar
ticles that came undor her depart
ment. She accordingly called on the
butcher and inquired :
" How often have you been in the
habit of presenting your bills, Mr.
Williams V
" Onco in sis months," was the re
ply. . "And I suppose you somotimes
have bad bills V
" Yes, one-tLIrd of my profits, on
aa average, are swept off by thorn."
" Aod you oould afford, I suppose,
to sell somewhat ehespcr for ready
money f '
V Yes, and I would bo glad if all my
customers would girt me a ehanco to
do so."
" I will set them example then,"
said Mrs. Newton. " Hereafter what
ever artioles shall be purchased of you
wil b pd for oa the spot, and we
shall expect yea to el tl reasonable
as you ceo." !
I ThU arrangement wu also mi
SNYDER CO. PA, MAY IK 1871.
with the others, who, It Is scarcely
ocedful to ft,J, wcro very glad to en
ter into the arrangement. Heady
money is the great sipport of trade,
and a cash customer Is worth two who
purchase on credit.
1'orluontely Mrs. Newton had n
small supply of money by her which
Instol till the first monthly Install
tneut for her hiiHhnnd became d'ie,
she was enabled to carry out her cash
plan from the beginning.
Another plan which occtirod t her
as likely to save expense, was to pur
chaxe nrtieloi in larger iiiuntitii'S. She
hud soon saved enough from tho mon
ey to do this. For example, instrnd
of lying sugar a few pounds at n tim'
alio ;purclincd n barrel, and so suc
ceeded in saving a rent or mora on a
pound This perhaps, amounted to
but a trifle In the course of a year,
but tho fttino cyi.tom can led out tn re
gard to other article yielded a re
sult which was by tio means a trifle.
Thero were other ways ia which a
careful bookkeeper la alio to limit cx
pciiKO which Mrs. Newton did not
overlook. With an object in view nlie
wasaUvays on the lookout to prevent
wutc, and to get the full value of
whatever was expended.
Tho result was beyond her anticipa
tions. t tho closo of Ihe venr. on cxnmin

h on. hun-lruJ nd lifty.MIari.be
sides roinibur.-ing herself for the mun
ey the first month, and lim ing enough
to last another.
"Well, Elisabeth, have you kept
within your allowance V osicd her
husband ut this time. " I guess you
havo not fo'ind it so cay to ravo as
you thought for."
" I have saved something, however,''
said hU wife. " Hut how is it with
i-.ni "
j -
" That's nioro than I can say. How
ever I havo not exceeded my income,
that's one g .o 1 thing. Wo havo lived ,
r..n . ..)! I .i..s. Lnmt I. H i.i.:
,er than last year, when wo t-pcul five
hundred."
'It's knack," Ezra," sai l bis wife
smiling.
Slio was not incliuod to mention
I how much she had saved. Fho waut-
him with it when it would bo ol
some service.
"Slio imv nnssiblv have saved u
twenty-live dollars," thought Mr
Newton, " or some sueh trifle, and sj
dismissed tho matter from his niiud.
At the cod of the second year, Mrs.
N'owtun's saving, including tho in
terest, amounted to throo hundred
and fifty dollars, and be began to feel
quite rich.
Her husband did not think to in-
juiro how shu had sueceodi d, suppos
ing as before, that it could bo but a
very small sum.
However bo hud somo good news
tocommuuicuto. IIh salary hud been
raised from a thousand to twelve hun
dred dullurs.
Ho added : " As I boforo allow od
you one-null my incomo lor house
hold expenses, it Is no more than fair
I should do so now. That will give
you a better chance to savo part of it
t ban before. Indeed, I dug t know
how you havo succeeded lo suving
anything thus tar."
As before Mrs Nowton merely said
that sho had saved something, without
specifying the amount,
Her allowance was incroascd to six
hundred dollars, hut her expenses
wcro not proportionally increased at
nl! j so that hor s ivings for tho third
year swelled tho aggregate sum in
tho savings bank to six hundreds dol
lars. Mr. Newton on tho contrary, in
spite of his increased salary, was no
bettor oh" at tbe end of tbq third year
than before. Ilia exponses had in
creased hy a hundred dollars', though
he would have found it difficult to tell
in what way bis comfort or hoppinoss
had been iooreased thoroby.
. In spite of his carelessness In regard
to bis own affairs, Mr. Newton was an
excellent man In regard to his business,
and bis sorvioes wuro valuable to hi
omployers. They accordingly increas
ed his salary, from time to ti mo, till it
reached sixteen huodrod dollars. He
had steadily presorted the custom of
assigning ono half to bis wile for the
same purpose as heretofore, and this
bad become sueh a habit that ho nev
er thought to ioquiro wbelhor alio
found it oeooeaary to employ the wbelo
or not. '
Thus tea year rolled away. Dur
ing all this time Mr. Now ton lived iu
the tame hired bent for which bo
If 8 1 .
h: d puid an annual rent of ono hun
dred nn 1 fifty dollars. .Latterly, how
ever, he had hecomo dissatisllud with
it. It had paved Into tho hands of a
new landlord, who was not disposed to
keep it in the repair which ho consid
ered disTublo.
Abmt this time a block of excellent
houses were erected .by a capitalist,
who dcxigucd lo sell them r;- lot llicm
as ho might havo an opportunity.
They were nioro modern and much
better arrmged than tho ono In which
Mr. Newton now live J, and ho IV ll n
strong (loslro lo movo in ono of them.
Ho mentioned it to his wild one morn
ing. "What is tho rent. Era?" in
quired alio. I
" Two hundred and twenty five Jo!-
Ian for tho corner hoU'O : two bun-.
died fur either of the o'.hers.''
'The corner would be preferable, I
on nrrotitit (f tho aide witiif iws." I
" Yes, and they hnvo a large yard(
besides. 1 think me must hire one of
them. I guess I'll engage ono to-duy ; '
you know our year is. out next week.''
" Please wait, E.ra, till to-uiorrw
before engaging one."
" lor what reason?"
" I should like to examine tho
house." 1
Soon after break liiit Mrs. New ten I

The

reipMM ho readily complied with; Mrs 1
Newton was uitJ delighted with all
the arritugomonts, and expressed her
Hit intact ion. i
' Aro theso houses fur sale orto
let ?'' she required. I
' Either," said the owner. 1
' The rent is, I understand, two i
hundred aud twenty-live dollars.'' '
" Yes, 1 consider tho corner house 1
worth ut least twenty-livo dollars'
uioro than the rest " '
" And what do you charge for tho 1
hiuse to a cash purchaser t" asked
Mrs, Newton with subdued eagerness
" Four thousand dollars cash,'' was 1
tho reply, and that is but a saiull ad
vauce on the cost."
" Very well, I will buy it of you,"
added Mrs. Newton ipiictly.
' What did I uuder.stund you to
say ?" osked the Stpiiro, scatcoly be
lieving his cars.
" I repeat that I will luy this lnue
ut your price, aud pay the ituuey with-

" Tl'1'" '',0 house is yours. But your
huslatld said nothing of his intention,
and in fact I did not know "
' That ho had the money to invest, ,
I supposo you would say. Neither I
does ho kuow it, nnd I must ask you j
not to tell him for tho present.''
The next morning Mrs. Newton in-1
vitcd her husband to take a walk, but
without specifying the direction. !
They soon stood in front of the,
house in which ho desire J to live.
" Wouldn't you like to go in ?" she
asked.
"Yes. It's a pity wo haven't got
tho key.-'
" I have the key," said his wife,
and forthwith walked upthesteps aud
proceeded to open the door.
" Whcu did you get tho key of
Biuiro Beiit I' asked the husband.
Yesterday, when I bought tho
house," said his wife quietly.
Mr. Newton ga.cd ul his wife in pro
found astonishment
" What on earth doyou mean, Eliza
both ?" ho inquired.
'Just what I say. Dbo housois
mine, and what is mine is thino. So
tho house is yours, Ezra.''
" Where in tho namo of goodness
lid you raise tbo money ?" asked thu
hushndd, his atnazoment still as great
as ever.
" I havcu't been a managing wife
for ten vcais for nothing," said Mrs.
Newton, smiling.
With somo difllottlty Mrs. Nowton
persuaded her husband that tho pr'ye
of tho house was really the result of
her savings. He felt that he survey
ed the commodious arrangements of
tho new bouso that ho bad to bo grate
ful for tbe prudence of bis managing
wife.
On the 7lh instant, the Grand Jury

Ainon.ir tho'aricient uations of the
East bathing was one of the most flour
ishing Institutions. Tho baths were
celebrated for their mafiUifiecnre, stul
formed parts of buildings of -vast ox
tent and gtaudiur, tinned gymnasia,
sufficiently large to accommodate Sev
ern! thousand persons, nnd besides the
baths, wcro used for the pursuit of fa
vorite games and exercises hy both old
nnd young, intended to give strength
and durability to the muscles, nlsothal
strong dctermitia'ion nnd vigor of
mind which was calculate 1 to make
them aoioinplMied warriors.
In thec baths wcro centered all that
was elaborate in workmanship, elegant
in design, and beautiful in ni t. Nothing
was thought too gran 1 or magnificent
for their decoration. Precious getns
and metals, and tho linot work of the
pa'nter and sculptor, were to be found
within their walls. The great hall of
the bath was generally ornamented
with tho statues of Hercules, the go I
of strength, llygen, tho goddess ot
health, nnd -Escutiipius, tbo god ol
tiiedii'inu.
But here wo draw a lino of dii-tine
tion between institutions of ancient nnJ
modern times In ancient times within
the bath was collected nil that con'rib

the people, lu modern ti nes, depart

braiKl.es, havo in a measure fallen into
disuse.
Tho benefit of thorough bathing
would not ouly be felt in our I'aiuilius.
but in business, in our legislative hall
and throughout society generally. -
t ne of tho greatest hygienic infl lenees
we can bring to bear upon tho public
health, mid tho alvanecmcnt of ourj"" " "Pavu ,lB "" l"u P'',D l"

free action of tho skin. Keep the skin , iH imposMblo for them to hold a re
clean and healthv. and we dire many I'llaMe footing in tho race of freer
gates tigninst disease. When tho wat
ery por tion of the prespiratie.n pvnp
orates, tbe solid matter is left br bind
on l bo sin f o. with the scales of
worn cuticle and tho excess of K,m.
ceous matter, and in order to havo n
healthy, aetivo (-kin, tlie-o impurities
requiro to bo removed hy the frequent
application of water. But in large
cities, whero so many thousands urc
collected in so small a compass, and
their business beiug of a sclent iry na
ture, almost deprives them from the
great benefit to ho derived from fresh
air und exerciso during busiuuss Iwurs,
and tho activity of nearly every organ
in tho body is more or less intcrl'eied
with, thus causing many thousand
cases of of dyspepsia, indication and
constipation.
This inactivity undoubtedly oxtcnJs
to tho skin, to a groatcr duitrco thun
to any other organ, for tho simple rea
son of its being farlnor away from tho
centre of circulation. But wo may say,
"It is ouly thctkiu; what can that
havo lo do with tho health f Wo oc
casionally tnko a bath aud are about os
clean as the generality of people,"
This may bo true as far as external ap
pearances are conceruod ; but let us
ask tho question. In what condition
are tho pores of tho skin? They are
till by, cloggeJ up, and this undoubted
ly gives rise to many a case of hoadacho
and fever, und other symptoms of de
pression due to this clogging up and
retention of cflcto matter.
This condition of the skin is plainly
shown by placing such a person in u
i'urkish or Russian bath for tho first
tune, bueh a porson is ronlly sur
prUcd at tho begth of time required
to got op a freo perspiration. Aftor
it is once staiteil be is again very much
surprised to s?e what a dirty person
ho Is ; wherever he touches the skin
with tho hand, Ihe effeto matter witb
the old dead cuticlorolls up ia wondrous
quantities. After tho second or third
hath the porspiraliou will start in a few
minutes after entering tho bath, show
lug plainly the advantage these baths
bare over tho simple water bath.
They not only cleanse tho skin as to
external appearances, but thoroughly
open the pores, throwing oft tho effete
material it contains.
Tho direct advantages of tbo Turk
ish and Russian batba are eopioos per
spiration, and the thorough removal
of all foreign impurities,
To tbo ladios, many of whom load
sedentary life, the value of thorough

How ti Schoolboy (cut Lost.
Tho Boston Tiai elrr tell this story:
Tho pet of a family residing not far
from La Grange street, is a boy who
lias recently pasted his fifth year, and
having just donned his first jacket and
trowsers is attending a primary
school. Tho other afternoon ho failed
to como homo at tho usial hour, much
to tho alarm of tbo household, and af
ter a. long search bo was found somo
lime ofier dark, at tho Providenoe do
pot. Ho was sent to bod without
much explanation, (bough it is possi
ble his treatment was what Solomon
would have recommended, in such aa
emergency. Tbe next day Do was at
tho breakfast table, evidently nono
the worse for the lesson, and perhaps
the wiser. Taking advantage of A
lull in the conversation customary
at the nmrniug meal, he turned his
grnvo countonanco toward tho head of
tbe table, and giving freo vent to his
overcharged mind, be exclalmod, "I'll
tell you, mamma, how it happened.
After school, I went part of tbe way
homo with Mary , and at a corn
er of the stroot, whero she left me, I
kissod her and she kisse 1 me, aod
then I found I was lost." There was
an explosion around tho table, just
about thnt time. It is suspected .hi
is not the first yonn,j gentlemen who
hai boon lost under similar circum
stances.
Printers beat tho Butob and every
body else but their wives. Vo bare

kept a singing school, ran a:ay with a
