Ere country ways had turnc 1 to street, And long ere we were born, A lad and lass would chance to meet, And often she'd neglect her task: The willows bowed to nudge the brook, The cowslips nodded gay, And he would look and slie would look, And bath would look away, Yet each and this is so absurd Would dream about the other, -And sh(T would never breath a word To that good dame her mother, Our girls are wiser now. 'Twas very quiet, 'twas very strange, Extremely strange, you must allow; Dear mc! how modes and customs change! It cjuld not happen jiow. sext day that idle, naughty las.?. Would rearrange her hair, And pondei long before the glass Which bow she ought to wear; "Why do you blush like that? " And uow she'd haunt with footsteps slow That mead with, cowslips yellow, Down which she'd met, a week ago, That stupid staring fellow. Our girU are wiser now. 'Twas very quaint, 'twas very strange, Entremely strange you must allow, Dear me! how modes and customs change! It could not happen now. A ud as for him. that foolish lad, He'd hardly close an eye, And look so woe-begone and sad, He'd make his mother cry. "He goes," she said "from bad to worse! My boy so blithe and brave, Last night 1 found him writing verse About a lonely grave!" And lo! next day her nerves he'd shock With laugh, and song, and caper; And there she'd find a golden lock Wrapped up in tissue-paper. Our boys are wiser now. By F. Langbr 'nbjt. How to Succeed. The way to become successf ul busi ness men from eVery stand point of the word, both us to position and mo ney making, is not to observe the fol lowing suggestions, but to act in a di rectly opposite manner : If omce hours are set from 8 to 12, and from 1 to 0, don't fail to make it a point to arrive at the office anywhere irom lo minutes to an hour late. Watch the clock carefully, and try to get out 5 to 10 minutes before 2, and then come back from 10 to 30 past 1, or up to 2 p. m. In the afternooirNpratch the clock anxiously, and if vou see a chance to escape ' without the eves of the man- agement upon you, always make it a rule to get out at 5 o'clock, or just as much ahead of this as possible. If you should not .happen to be em ployed as a salesman, don't think of such a thin; as asking a visitor in a polite manner if anything can be done to serve linn. He mignt tiimK you were a salesman, and this might de grade you in his estimation. When a visitor comes in the store, never walk forward to greet him. Al ways let him walk from the frontdoor to the inside of the office, and let him state his business. This course makes him feel very much at home. If you are a salesman, don't fail to i i i i i i see how soon you can rid yourself of a visitor. iever inmK oi snqwing mm anything beyond what he asks to be shown, as it might possibly interest him anu ehect a sale or other goous. --J- "-j- J o omething of a condescending nature A Iwnvs .net, ns it von wpre flointf i. A 1 when you give your time to a visitor. Don't let him get the idea into his head that you feel it as condescending on his part to visit you. Take it lor granted that all other houses in your line of business are do ing business upon' the same principles which you are, and that they are anx- ions to save tneir vaiuaoie lime anu hustle a man out of the store as soon as they can, whether it is decently or politely done or not. Don t make it appear to your pnnci nals. or to the customer, that vou are bending everv energy in the direction of selling goods, but rather stand upon the high and lofty principle of being something better than the average cus- toraer If you are a bookkeeper, never speak to a man in a polite and atlable way when he comes to collect a bill, but if i tie uiu i ugni, snug mc mwurj check toward him as you would a piece of meat to a hungry dog, and make him believe you are doing him a 'great favor to pay him what is justly his due. If there re any discrepancy in his account, always make it appear that vou are the onlv man in the world who could have discovered it, and give him the idea that he has been trying to rob vou. This will make him feel pleas ant toward the house as well as toward yon Don't take it for granted that a man likes tt see a carefully made bill, but in making out bills abbreviate every thing vou can, and make it as intricate and hard to understand as possible Y hen a-mistake occurs m an ac count or order, don't undertake to ex plain the matter away in a pleasant, affable manner, upon the presumption that the man who made the complaint thinks he is right, but go at him "hammer and tongs" in the shortest and curt est way possible, and try to impress him with the idea that he is al wavs wrong and that you are always riglit. This will give him an idea that he is dealing with a pleaant lot of people, and will encourage him to bring his business to you the next time. If you see anything going wrong in a .alii t 1 a anv department of the business, don think for a moment tju t Hie manage- meht would be glad to know of it, and have it rectified; and if you should hap pen to see samples in a disorderly con dition, never speak of it or attempt to put them in place yourself, as you might soil your hands. Don't attempt to do anything to ward keeping the office in a clean and orderly condition. A little confusion, disorder and carelessness on the part of nil make an omce beautitul ana at tractive, and, of course what little dis order yon exhibit personally does not make any difference, and if you were to straighten out something that some one else did, you would be doing more than you ought to, and it would over work you. When you are on the road, make it a point to get to S3me good hotel Fri day or Saturday, and never leave it until Monday. Time is little or no consideration in a busy season, and it is always desirable to spend one or two days of the week "bracuig up" so that you will be fresh on Monday morning. As versatility is one of the neces sary requirements in a good salesman, expend your time in learning, to play the latest hands at poker and other fashionable games, smd be sure that you always keep your capacity for drinking liquor of all kinds up to the average, else your brother salesmen on on the road would recognize you as "one of the finest." 1 Don't image that your principals ever know anything about what you are doing when you are away from home, but act upon the idea of "out of sight, out of mind," and do everything without reference to what your em ployers would have to do or what you should do to make your part of the businoss a succes. Don't reason upon the principle that he more vou do the more valuable vou are to the house, and that when the time comes there will be a chance for promotion. Men who have acted upon this pnn ciple are, of course, the oi.es who are in the best positions in the trade and making the most money. Don't imagine that anything you do in the direction of showing a special. personal interest in every detail of the business will be appreciated bv vour principals, some ot whom may be get ""J? -'Oiu or reauy to retire irom business. Don't do anything as if you had a financial interest in the business, or sis if the business whs your own. Such actions as this upon your part would shown that vou were not calculated to be promoted in case there was an op- port unit v for promotion. stoves ana Jlarrftcare. Dam Disasters. ACCIDENTS FROM THE BURSTING OF RES ERVOIRS IX TIMES PAST. The bursting of the reservoir at Johiistown'will at once recall the Mill Kiver disaster on May 10, 1874, when the village of Haydenville, Mass., was swept out of existence and 140 person:- were drowned. A guard was watching t,e tiam, and about 8 o'clock in the morning he discovered that an enor mous leak had developed out of a small i r I - a one. xie started to give warning to the village-of Leeds, just below, but the reservoir broke awa' betore he could reach the village, and the water from a pond 114 acres in area came down like a wall, carrying away nearly the whole vallage. Haydenville was swept away, and several other towns on the Connecticut river were inundated. Over 3X) families were rendered home less and 551,000,000 worth of property in dams, dwellings, factories, etc., was lost, lioads and bridges were damag ed to the extent of $200,000.

' There is scarcely any room to doubt that the sugar trust is preparing to make a vigorous battle to sustain pres ent prices, if not to force them still fur ther up the scale. Previous to the first advance in pri ces a year ago the storage of large quantities of refined sugar was a thing unheard of. The price of granulated sugar at the retail was then about six and a half cents per pound; now the same article sells at ten, cents per pound. The first large storage was made by De Castro & Don tier, of No. 117 Wall street, and at the time attracted much attention in Brooklyn, where the su gar was deposited with the warehouse trust. When I called on the firm and asked the meaning of this new move ment the manager blandly denied that the firm wsis storing sugar, and when informed that the barrels bore the brand of his firm innocently said he supposed some purchaser was storing the sugar. There was no prospect of ai y advance. Oh, dear, no; quite the reverse. In spite of these assur ances a corner was made, and in a few days refined sugar stood at seven and a half cents and kept on advancing until it reached ten, where it now stands. tor more that two months past the trusthas been rushing the storage of sugar with the warehouse trust, atidfcr7 day there is scarcely a dry, clean, avail able warehouse on the Brooklyn water front that has not some refiued sugar stored in it. Like the shrewd man that he is, E B. Bartlett, manager of the warehouse trust, took first innings by filling his own stores, then .Watson's and I'ierre- pont s i-tores came in lor their share, and I have every reason for believing thsit to-day there are at least two hun dred thousand barrels of refined sugar in the warehouses between Fulton and Wall street ferries. Nor is this all. About five weeks ago the empty warehouses around the Atlantic Basin came in for a share. Over forty thousand barrels were stored in Findlay's stores, north of the entrance to the bassin, and 5,000 bar rels was stored in the Commercial Wharf of Laimbeers stores. The lat ter weie too damp and dirty for the puq o;e, and work there was discontin ued. Since then work has been car ried on at Findlay's. The north stor es are practically filled and for the past week enormous quantities of su gar have been put into Findlay's stores, south of the entrance to the basin. Yesterday at times there were not less than eight or ten lighters discharging, soma on the channel side and others on the basin side. A man who has watched this storing carefully said to me last night that there were only one hundred thousand barrels of refined sugar in the basin then. The work was being rushed with the utmost vigor, as though the sugar trust was preparing for some emergency. There is very little doubt but that the combine is nirn:irmcr to srniPHZ the market by still further advancing r.. ---o the price of this necessary of life, and it would be useless to attempt to deny that a very bitter feeling is arising a .. against the magnates of the sugar trfcst.- This bitterness is more appar ent in Brooklyn than in New York, because the operations of the trust are more exposed to the public view. Sen sible, steady men have said to me that an attempt should be made to in . " duce the public to do .without sugar until the combination comes to senses. This storiug of sugar will bring de cided pleasure to one body at least the warehouse trust. The storage fees will reach a verv handsome sum, and i i i i? Id be pront- I al 1 1, ..........

But facts are not compliments, and tt is a fact that the press has mad more advances within the nasi half century thanfany art or science or profess.on. It has done mon for th world's progress in all humanity. It is no longer the fourth estate, but it is the first. It is now niorp nofpnf tnr good than is the pulpit or the schools. For, without the press, the' preachers and the teachers would be helpless. Not a book or a sermon could be print ed; not a Bible or a tract for mission work; not a paper for the farm or the fireside. It is - curious to think how the world got along without it in the ages past. lu 1721 James Franklin was a print er and his brother Ben. was his devil. The boss of si newspaper vas not then called an editor, he was simply a print er or publisher. The name editor came afterwards, and is derived from a T 1 i l a. - l m iiiuiu wuru euere, 10 eat. 10 make a living by this calling was so precarious that the publisher was generally hun gry and was glad to take subscriptions 1.1 A 1 J. in someiuing 10 eat. some oi our country editors are still driven to the the same necessity. Not long ago I aw in the Camilla Clarion a double- leaded hungry announcement that Brother Underwood would rieceive for subscriptions chickens, eggs, possums, ram, lamb, sheep or mutton, pig, pork or swine, and until further , orders would" take green corn, blackberries, lye soap, and inguns. Blessed with the maintenance of thirteen children it is no wonder that he rejoices in the privilege of meandering around with his brethren and once a year renlenish- ishing his corporosity. - When there is one good weekly pa I a a . per in a county town the people will get me editor s nonest convinctions When there are two there willbe strife aud insincerity. What one advocates the other will oppose or condemn. One hotel, one paper, and one. school are enough if they are good and the community should sustain them with confidence and liberality. What a world of gratuitous comfort the weekly T 1.11 t I gives us. Just tnniK ot the homely fireside news that comes from everv precinct the unpaid pens of Slim Jim, and Grinning Jake, and Susan, Jane Daisy, ihink of the arnvalof accom plished men and charming women that are recorded with compliments that gladden the hearts of those concerned, and didn't cost a cent. Think of the lovely bride and the manly "groom and all their angelic attendants, and of the officiating clergyman who gets five dollars for tying the knot, but the poor editor got nothing but a chunk of cake. What is a marriage without publica tion and half a dozen papers to send to rejected sweethearts? Think of the long obituaries of departed friends that the editor has to publish free of charge and be thankful. Think of this and still be calm and serene if you can. .
