TIONESTA, VA., A GOOD WIFR George Brown tt the age of twenty three took himself a wile; or ratlfer, he and Hattie took one another, for belter or for worse. But then they knew it was going to be for better, al ways, and never worse. How could it be otherwise, when they understood each other so well ? They had married young, and tbey had but little of this world's goods, to commence with. But they had health and strength, and they were going to work together, and build them up a home of their owo. iu tune. "We will be saving." said Hattie, "and, in the end, we may reach the goal." The goal was the home which they were to own. "We shall not scrimp nor deny ourselves of necessa ry comforts; but we will do without luxuries. By thus economizing in the morning, we may find a (tore to spare in the evening. Money is like time; an hour gained in the earlv day is a great thing, while an hour lost may not he regained." George saw and understood, and he was as eager as his wife. lie was de termined to put all his energies into the work, and, in the future be saw foreshadowed promises most bright. He had taken of his uucle a email house, which he was to pay for when he was able, ..He iiad do doubt that he should be able to pay two hundred dollars a year on it; and at this rate, as his kind relative bad offered the bargain, the property would be bis own in six years. "George, asked Hattie, one even ing, at the tea-table, "what do you pay for this tea T" "I declare, Hattie, I don t know. I don't believe I asked." "What! Did you ttnf. ask?" "No. I have every confidence in Mr. Skidd. He is a perfectly honor able man." "But did vou not pay for it?" "No; I have opeued an account there." Hattie shook her head- Ais anprovingly. George taw the motion and went on : "You know that I am paid montblv. and I thought it would be just as- well to keep a mouthly 'account at the tore. Mr. Sfctdcl Thame" preferred that plan." "I can readily see why Mr. Skidd should prefer it," said the wife, with a significant siaile. "Iu the first place, he knows that you are an industrious, steady and honorable man, and that whatever you owe you will certainly pay. He knows that." George was flatterer1, but he felt that his wife had spoken no more than the truth. "And pursued Hattie, "he knows one thing more. He well knows that you would buy more on credit than you would Tor cash. George made a deprecatory motion, but his wife continued : ' Mr. Skidd kuows. He is old in the business. Over bis profitable custom ers, who open monthly accounts upon his ledger, he has decided advantages. He can persuade them to buy what they would not buy if they bad to pay the cash down ; and, where they are to have credit where the trader is to have the extra labor and expense of entering and posting each separate article, and, in the end, of making ft full bill of items the buyer cannot, with a good conscience, demand any reduction from aske) prices. George smiled and said he thought his wife was mistaken. He was sure he was doing well. It would be incon venient to pay for each little article as he ordered it. And furthermore, it would be handier to settle the store bills wben bis employers settled with him. Hattie did not press the matter. She had brought the subject upon the tapis, aud she was willing to await the development of events. "By the way, Mr. Brown, do you not want a box of these figs? Tbey are fresh; I will warrant them, and by the box I will put tbem up cheap." So spake Mr. BkWd, tbe .store-keeper. George knew that his wife was very fond of figs, and he loved thorn him self. And he consented that ft box should be sent to him. On another day Mr. Skidd said : "Ah, Mr. Brown, my dear fellow.have you tried this golden syrup V George had not tried the syrup! The best quality of molasses had hith erto answered his purpose. But he was permitted to try it. On another davt "Look here, Brown ; shall I send ft dozeu of these Mesiloa oranges? Anew cargo just come in. You won't get 'em so cheap acain. Only thirty cents! Only thirty cents! And George knew bow foud Hattie was of oranges. Of course George Brovn would Lave them And so the days passed on, and the month came to an end. George Brown was paid by his employers, and set at about paying others. Ou his OIH'O SEPTEMBER 29, 1875. way home . he called and got Mr. Bkidd'i bill. "You can take and look it over," said the trader, with a patronizing smile; "you'll find it all right." George had intended to pay the bill then and there. But, when he saw the long coljmn of figures, and glanced his eyes at the total, his heart leaped up into his mouth. He was astonish ed ; he had thought to himself, as he had come along, that Bkidd'a bill would be about twelve to fifteen dol lars. After paying everything else, be would have twenty dollars left, which would ar.Msfv this last demand, and leave something over. He had just commenced house-keeping, and did not expect to save much at first. But, mercy, how all his anticipa tions were knocked in pieces as he looked athe bill. He told Skidd he guessed lie would look it over, and on his way home he examined it; he could find nothing wrong in the items but trft sura total was n poser twenly-erx dollars and forty-two cents. For a long time after be reached home he tried to convince Hattie that there was nothing the matter with him; but at length he plucked up courage, and drew forth Skidd's bill. He had expected that his wife would be paralyzed. But on the contrary, she ojly smiled and said it was all rigW "All right?" echoed George. '.'All right, so far as Mr. Skidd is concerned," said Hattie. "You re member what I told you once before ; and now let's sit down and eat sup per.Vpd then we will look tbe matter over." And after supper they went at the wort, Hattie taking the hill and a piece of blank paper, and following all the items with her pencil. "First," she said, "is ft box of figs t fifteen cents pound. It was very cheap, no doubt, but the eight pounds came to ft dollar and twenty cents. Had you been required to pay the csBh. vou would not have bought them. You would, nt least have asked me if I liked tbem, and I should have told you No. Next we have a gallon of golden syrup, which we did not need and for which you would not have paid TaSTr without -c:jtjtng ma," And so she went on throwing out articles and cutting down the bill to lees than fifteen dollars. A dollar here had not seemed a great deal to George; and a dollar and ft half there; then seventy-five cents, and then only fifty cents; but there had been twenty visits to the store during the month, and the ag gregate of these trival sums was con siderable. George saw the whole thing, and he lftwr his wife had been right from the "Don't say a word," he said. "I see the mistake. But I'll have to work around into the right track by de gree.!" "How so, George?" "Why, I havenTt enough money left of my month's wages to quite pay this bill, so that 1 shall be unable to enter upon the cash principle at pres ent." "There need be no difficulty in that direction," said Hattie. "I have not spent quite all my little capital. I had already fixed it tor a bit oi ft nest egg; and I don't know as it could be pujt into a better use than the laying of foundation, for cash payments. At an'rate.TJeorge, let us try it for a while." George kissed his wife and said (be was a blessing, and he promised that he would follow her advice in the fu ture. He took the sura ot rai.ney which she had given and held it as a loan, which he was to return at the earliest moment. And he felt an am bition to see how speedily be could do it. And on Monday morning the new rule of life went into operation. George Brown paid Mr. Skidd's bill, aud '.old him that thereafter he should pay for everything he bought. Tbe store-keeper "pooh-poeb'd," and said there was no need of it. "Bless you. aiy boy, I would as lief trust vou as not. ' "I do not doubt it, Mr. Skidd, but I prefer uot to be trusted. I would rather consume my own groceries than consume yours. A bill is an evil at best, and I don't choose to have evils growing on my hauda if I can help iu" Mr. Skidd saw very plainly that his customer's vision was clear, aud he said no more. On the evening of that very Moo day, Mr. Skidd exhibited to George some ettrft niea preserves, and the young man's first impulse was to or der a not of them. But tbe taking out of his wallet and the break iug of five dollar bill was a palpable re minder, aud he concluded he could do without thara. Said he tq himself, "these seemingly trival sums, if I save them, will, at the end ol the mourn, add up as greatly in my favor as they ttWfettii. $2 PEK ANNUM. have heretofore added up against me. And he found it so. And he found one thing more in his favor from cash payments which he had not particular ly counted on. As he had the money in hand to pay for the articles which he had planned to purchase, he could buy them where be could get the cheapest. Traders are notwilling to lose rash customers, and they do only the fair thing when they Self to such customers cheaper than they sell to others. Not only is the interest of the money an important item in tho se gregate of money accounts, . but the keeping of that account, in day-books and ledger, is an expense. George very soon learned all this. And he found that Mr. Skidd sold cheaper to him during tiiis month of cash pay ment than be had during the previous month. And, as the months rolled on, George Brown opened no more ac counts with traders. He found that, in paying cash, he was constantly re minded of the value of each separate sum as he counted it out, and hence was not likely to purchase what he did not need. And then he had a goal ahead which he had determined to reach ns quickly as possible. And, by his system of cash payments, he could estimate, at the close of every day, the gain he was making toward the desired end. In two months be paid what he borrowed from his wile, andBhe put it into the common fund ; and in five years his home was his own, and he owed no man anything but -for love and good will. II M NEW CATEI H1S.1I. Bobbie was sitting quietly in the shadow of the well house reading a' dime novel. His mother called out to him five times to bring iu some stove wood, but he was so absorbed in the tale that he imagined he heard ouly the Indians calling for more wood to pile around the "White Lilly," about to be burned at the stake. But his father came around under the well house shadow and demanded to know: "What book is that, sir?" ' Bobbie remembered that the old man couldn't read and that he was awfully down on r)hNo novels, -to boot, so he replied : "It's my new catechism, sir?" "Exactly 1" said the old man, and pointing to the picture on the back: "What's that picture" thar, sir?" "Why, thats the angel in the burn in' bush, pa; I thought you'd a know'd that I" "It's a nnsty, stinking dime novel, that's what it is !" interposed Bobbie's ma. And the next minute Bobbie was spinning round like a fellow hung with a shirt collar, and the old man was fanning him with a slipper, and asking Bobbie all these bard conun drums': "That's a new kattykism, eh ? And the angel in the burnin' brush heap, eh? And now I reck in you tbiuk you're 'Lishy nail in' round in a char ryot ov fire, don't ye? Or Shad rack, Meshsck, an tied negro iu the fiery furnice, eh? Or mebbe you feel like leak on the wood pile, don't you, young mau ?" And when the old man finished and Bobbie had carried in the wood, he went down to the horse lot and re marked that he felt like one of the foxes that sot the corn fields afire. A PATRON LOST. A German subscriber to the Journal recently called to advertise a lost cow, and according to the long established custom of this well regulated print shop, we immediately wrote up the notice and figured up the cost of pub lication.

We have no right to judge others until we knw of the circumstances that influence their conduct. In many rases we might act like those we con demn, under like circumstances. A young man employed iu a print ing office in one of our large cities, in curred the ridicule of the other com p. ritors, on account of his poor clothes, and unsocial tehavior. On several occasions, subscription papers wero presented to him for various objects, but he refused to give his money. Oue day a compositor asked him to contribute for a picnic party, but was politely refused. "You are tbe most niggardly man ever employed in this office,'" said the compositor, angrily, "Stop," said the young man, choking with feeling, "you have insulted me." The other compositors gathered around tbe excited man. The young man looked at them for a few minutes with famisTied look, aud a strange fire in his eyes. "You little know," ho said, "how unjustly you have treated me. t or more than a year 1 have been starving myself to save money enough to send my poor blind sister to I aris, France, to be treated by a physician, who has treated many cases of blind ness similar to hers. I have always done my duty here in this office, and have minded my own busiuess. I am sac rifiviug everything in life for another, Would either of you do as much? Can any oi:e do more?'' He had been judged without a knowledge of cir cumstances, lie slow to censure aud condemn. We cannot read the heart of others, and, in manv cases, to know all, is to judge all. "Judge not, that ye be not judged." TUB PHINt'K OF WALE' DEBT, The London correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial says: There is a pretty general impression that un der this Indian visit there lurks a scheme for putting about 100,000, at the very least, into the Prince's pock et. The Prince, notwithstanding an annual income of 120,000, cannot keep out of debt. How he manages to spend so much money is so myster ious as to amount to a scandal. His residences and estates are provided for him, and are untaxed, and were be to give a dinner party every day .in the year ti twenty princes, at twice the price per bead of a lord mayor's ban quet, it would not cost a third of his income. The report was circulated that he was burdened with expenses by the queeu's withdrawal from court; but the queen has taken paini to have it reach the public that the prince has suffered no pecuniary loss ou her ac count. Some little time ago repeated efforts were made to feel tbe pulse of the country to find if it would be safe to pay the prince's debts without show ing tho vouchers. These efforts were 'successful; the pulse of the country wss felt, and revealed plainly that it would not be safe. Efforts to raise his income were equally fruitless, A DUTCH V1CTOHV, A crowd of young chaps about town were iu one of the popular beer sa loons yesterday, where they met ft jol ly old German, who often gets thor oughly soaked in beer and ro ludlin funny. "Hello, Kaiserlicher, have you beard the news?" said one. "Nein I vas ish das?" "The water works are busted !" "Vel, dot's bad mid dem tejibrance beeples, don'd id, poye?" (Laugh all round.) "Yes, and the rolling mill's gone up!" said another of the boys. "Veil, shoost dond got steered noud dot; it's so helly dot it goora down agin, eh?" (A grand peal of laugh ter.) "And and the ice machine has exploded 1" cried a third. "Ish dot biu poizible?
