Simply, culture.7 There is a great deal of gossip that has no malignity In it. Uood-oalured peopldtalk almut their neigh bora because, and only because, they have nothing else to talk about. As we write, there comes to us the picture of a family of young ladles. We have seen them at home, we have met theni In galleries of art, we have caught glimpses of theni going from a bookstore or a library, with a fresh volume in their hands. When we- meet them, they are full of what they have seen aud read. They are brimming with questions. pDne topic of conversation is dropped only to give place to auother in which they are interested We ' have left them, after a dellghlft'l hour, stimulated aud refreshed ; and during the whole hour not, a neigh bor's garment was oiled by so much a a touch. They had something to talk about Tbey knew something, to talk about, They knew something, aud wanted to know more. They could listen as well as they could talk' To speak freely of a neigh bor's doing ami . oelongiugs would hav seemed an impertinence to them aud, of coure; an , impropriety They had no temptation to gossip, because the doings of their neighbors formed a subject very much leaa Interesting than those which out of their knowledge and their culture. Aud this tells the whole story. The confirmed gosaip is always either mali cious tf ignorant. .The one variety needs a charge of heart, and the other a change of pasture. Gossip i always a personal confession, either of malice or imbecility, and the young should not only shun it, but by tlie most thorough culture relieve themselves from all temptation to indulge In It It ia a tow, frivolous, and oi ten a dirty busliiess. There are country neigh .herfiood m which it rages like a peat. Chur ches are split In pieces by if Neighbor are made enemies by it for life ' In many persons It degenerates Into a chronic diaense, which ia practically . incurable Let the young cure it while they may Dr. J.

It dlesolves most every Ini. purity that may find its way to the blood, aud pusses it off through the skin, lungs and kidneys, thus washing out the blood without any Irritation in the system, aud without tlnwe chemical changes aud de posits which are likely to arise from the action of drug. Why then use doubtful, dangerous, and often Injurious drugs for purifying tbe blood, when pure, simple, safe, and far more effectual water may be had without money and without price? A hot lemonade Is one of the beat reme dies iu the world for a cold. . It acta promptly and affectually, and has no un pleasant after affect. One lemon pro ierly squeezed, cut in slices, put in sugar aud cover with a half pint of boiling wa ter. Drink just before going to bed; do ant expiate yourself on the following day. This remedy will ward offau attack of tbe chill aud fever If used promptly. SCIIENCK'd SUCCESSOR.

Tt Is not to sweep the house, make the bed, tlurn the socks and coot tbe meats, chiefly that a man wants a wife. If this I all he needs, hired help, can do II cheaper than a wife.. If this ia nil, when a young man calls to see a young lady sent him into the pantry to taste the bread aud cake she ha made, -sent hint to In spect the needlework ami bed-making, or puts broom 111 her hand and 'send him to witness It uae. 6uch things are!ior taut, aud the wise young men will quickly look after them; but what the true man wants with a wife is her companiomdilp, syhipattiy and love, the way of life has many dreary places M lt. and man needs a corajsinton to go with hliir. ' A niau is sometimes overtaken by misfortune; he meets with allure aud defeat; trials and temptations beset him, and he need one to stand by and sympathize. He has some hard battle lo jflght with poverty, enemies, and with sin; and he needs a woman that, then he puts his arm around her, he feels he has something to fight for, she will help him to fight; that she will put her tips to bid ear and whisper words of counsel and her hand to hi heart and impart inspiration All through life, through storms and through sunshine, conflict and victory; through adverse and through favoring winds, man needs a wo man's love. The heart yearns for it. A sitter's a.id a mother's love will hardly supply the need. Yet many seek for wuhing further than success iu house work. Justly enough, half of these get nothing more; the other half, surprised beyond measure, have gotten more than they sought. Their wives surprise them by bringing out a uobtu idea in marriage, aud disclosing a treasury of courage, sympathy and love. ww ww ? w t CENTENNIAL NOTES.

She objected, and steps were taken by Campbell for her removal. She hasten ed to Washington, saw. the President, and demanded a hearing.' Refore her removal tbe President told her that if she paid any more money to Campbell he would remove her. .
