Little oil women in plenty I find. Mature in manners and old of mind; Little eld fhrts who tall: of their -'beaux," And vie with each other in stvlish clothes. Little cd 1 belles, who, at nine and ten, Are f-ick of pleasures and tired of rnen, Weary of travel -, of bad-, of fun And find no new things under the sun. Once, in the beautiful long ago, Some dear little children I used to know; -jitls who nierrv as lambs at plav, A.nd laughfd and rollicked the livelong They thought not at all of the "style" of their clothes, They never imagined that boys were "beaux;" "Other girls' brothcis" and "mates" were they; Splendid fellows to help them play. Where have they gone to! If you see One of them anj where, send her to me, I would give a medal of purest gold To one of these dear little girls of old, With an innocent heart and an open smile.

His cotton is splend.d , tie com on his home tract is tot so good as could be de sired tut the other farm shows the 'est corn crop that lias been grown thereon for years. Every crop s in a line etate of cultivation, and bis farming operations promise great success. His potato crop was excel lent, but with raiiroad facilities, hp tells uj, he would have cleared at least a thousand dollars more on thai crop, lie is now caring tobacio, and su?h quantities of the bright and be jutit'ul leaf we have not seen many a da lie has seven barns near e ich i ther and a brge packbouse. In these he baa already curtd thirty one b.irns full, and will cure as many m ire. This crop of tobacco is as fine as we ever saw, except that the hail punched it considerably in some Q Ids.

A writer whose mind is richly stored with good sense addresses the Country Gentleman as followr: Yet, after all, every yeans woman tLould have a rich dowry to take to her husband and her new home. Whtt shall it be? Fiist of all, a character as wonderfully beautifal as all the formative influences of ber life Can ra-ike it. Shakespeare speaks fo mod esty as being "the j-rwel in her dow er ." Let her have a character found ed upon virtue and ornamented and lighted ith a loviog Leart and a cheerful disposition. These, in lofty wealth or deep povert', shall bear her upon the crest of every wave, and their value be without price. Parents can never secure happiness to their children except by giving them the ability to meet its demands. This, money come? far short of doing. If there i3 any obvious truth it is this, that happiness is a personal mrntal condition maiataiuel inde; endent of circumstances. This cannot mean, ot course, that a natarally or spirits ually made happy persons cannot be made more and leas happy by cir cumstance0, hot it does mean this: If a daughter is brought up to be, or allowed to be, selfish, exacting and eternally expecting more than she receive?, she will not be happy though she owned half the earth and wore the engagement ring of the owner of the other half. Next to character io value as a dowry is executive ability of some kisd. If a few hnodredi, more or less, can be expended upon our daughters , let us give them some special education which will Lit them for self support. A woman thus ea dowed is happier than one who is the recipient of a yearly income from a father's bounty . It is needless to recito the names of avenues which are so deservedly popular and open to women , but we tnav name one or two especially suit ed to a woman's tree, evtntual liv ing in n home as wife and mother. One is that of a traiued nurse. What a blessing to any home and to her self! Yet only strong young women can take this course of in9tructior, and it is a hard life when made self supporting. But It will always re commend itself to the brave, practi cal girl. There is a golorioua move ment well started and marching grandly toward health. It is physi cal culture, now so fashinoable. A. thorough course of instruction in this will (it our daughters for real life, and secure to their children ''the right to be weli born." There is a great demand for teachers in schools and colleges which can be turned to bank account or board as well as to ward the perfect woman in physique. Gold is good for what it secures to u3 , but after all, it is hard and cold, and its glitter is mostly in rep utation. Iq reality how oftea it is quite dull and far less bright than pinchbeck. A voice says, "to be sore, some people insist upon calling a drop o water on a red rose soraeth'ng more re thttic, but the 'dew drop' on the 'blushing rose' will not furnish us br-?ad onl shoe leather." And we must admit the truth of such a state ment , but oh, for a glimpse of the beautiful and oh, the hungry stu'td "My mind to me a kingdom is What a dowry ! . Happy I looht-lers. Wm. Timnions Postmaster of Idaville, Ind writes: "Electric Bitters has done more for me then all other medicines combined, for that had feeling arising from Kidney and Liver trouble."

Although Iceland has a popuUt'on of only about 70,000 the mj'jrity of these being poor in thi world's goods, yet lo fewer than right pa pers are published on tie itlaod The nmjrity of these are printed oc excellent pnper and witrj good letter press, one of tberr, the Fjallkonan (Mountain Maid), evej has an illus trated litera-y sopplem-nt. Aside from the local Dew?, the papers are Qiled with discussions on political and economic subjects pertaiDiDg drcctly to the afftirs of Iceland. The spirit of the articles are often extremely, sometimes evea offinsive ly , partisan and personal. Not infrequently the place of the books ia occupied with a learned discussion of eome kind. Comparatively little attention is paid to the ups and downs of European or American aff airs, these being reported but very briefly. One characteristic of these papers is that almost the entire con tents consists of original contibu tions. Splendid translations also are qaite frequently published. Ttie whole population of Iceland is educated , the number of illiterates being extremely low ; as a result these papers have an abundance of correspondents even among the fiih ermen and peasants.

Importance of the Shears. A recent number of the Journal ist takes the ground that the shears are quite as important at times us the quill. It says : "A good many people do not know that an editor's selections from his contemporaries are quite often the best test of his editorial ability, and that the fanction of tbe scissors is not merely to fill np vacant spaces, bit to reproduce the brightest and best thoughts and the moit attract ive news from all sources at the ed itor's command. There are times when the editor opens his exchanges and finds a feast for his yeu, heart and soul. The thoughts of his con temporaries glow with life. He wihes his readers to enj y tbe feast aud Lie lovingly takes up the scissors and clips and clips, aud sighs to think that his space is inadequate to contain all the treasures so prodigally spread before him. Your true editor is generous , aud will sacrifice his owa ambition as a writer during such festal occasion?, and it is of far more profit to his readers to stt be fore thpm the original di?h of dain ties with the label of the real autLor affixed, than to appropriate its best thoughts to himself, and reproduce them as his own. After all, the true test of a newspaper's real alu is not the arpouDt of original matter it containp, but the average qnalily of all the matter appearing in its col umn", whether origin 1 or -elected.'

HOW A KISINrsi WAS I.FMFMBKr.ED tOli MANY LONU YEAKS. (Youth's Companion.) After the c!o?e of the Civil War the North was filled witl Southern refugee?, many of them delicate wo- i men, reduced from ailijeoce to prop erty, and compelled to earn a living for themselves and their families. Oae of these was a niece of JeiTron Davis, a woman of unusual celtlva- lion, who found a scanty and pieca. rious subsistence by giving an oc casional lec'ure before a coantry au dieoce on Southern life. Sheltered and shielded as she had always been, the struggle with the world wa; a bard one. Womsn were just begiLs nmg to appear on the public plat form , and she was unknown and friendless ; but bravely she worked on, asking aid from no one. It was a cold, blustering January day in 1878 when, cold and shiver ing from an early morning drive in te rain, an 1 with her thin wraps dripping , Mrs. II. entered the Boston train at a way-station. All the seats were occupied, some with bag3 , but dles and overcoats. Trembling from weakness ar.d weariness, Mrs, II. supported her self against the back of a seat as the train moved off. At that moment a gentleman chanced to lower his newspaper, and caught sight of the black-robed wo man. With a quick exclamation sprang to his seat removed a va lise from t he seat besi le him, and Invited her to occupy it. Ap she sank down exhausted, he carefully wrapped his travelling rug about her. She thanked him for his kiodness and he, turning to her said: "Pardon me, madam, but you are not a Southerner?'' "Ye.," she answered 'H am. 1 suppose you knew it from niv speech; many people have done so." 'Tne accent i3 unmistakable," he replied; (uut pardon me again, are you not a long way from home.?" ' A long way ipdeed,'' she replied, and encouraged by hi smypathetio voice and m inner, she added, "I lost my all during the war, and as there is no moiey in the South, I came North to find meai.s to support iuy fatherless children." ''And have you done so?" he ask ed in a kindly minner ''After a smill fashion," sbe a i swered. ' I have occasional engage ments to speak to country audiences on life in the South during and be before the War 'Did you speak last nigh'.? ' he asked. ' Y"es m X wa3 the answer. ''And I do not wish to be imper tinent, but I am somewhat in the same business myself, and I should like to know, that is if yon wuald not mind telling me, how much they paid you for your lecture," ' Five dollars and the fare to and from Boston," was tue response. " Five dollars !" he excliamed. Why, I always get one or two hun dred; and your lecture must be worth a great deal nore than mine, for you can give fact?, While I can only furnir-h opinions." "Little as it answered Mrs. fl., ' I am glad to get it; I would talk at this rate every night during the winter.'' For a while the man satin eilerct; then putting his hand in his pocket drew out a roll of banknote?, and in a hesitation manner said: T don't want to be instrusi'-e, hut one of the articles of mv creel is that a wornin is entitled to the same pay as a man if she does the same amount of work. My price for a night's talk is tvo hundred dollar?, and that sum they paid me last night at Z ; now if jou will let me divide it wiih voa, I shall have had my sbar, and the thi lg will be ever, dou't on see? ' After m-jca urging a'd miav thoughts of her needy little one?, Mrs. II. was persuaded to put the roll io her purse ; b jt it was not un til tbe end of her j -urney that 6he examintd the roll and found it a contain just one hand ed do'lars. Some years afterward the di-cov-thut her nnknown beat-factor was Wendell Pnillip-, and ruing then nast the need ot uelr. -he eaveel li 1 ' ' pay the debt.
