In Peale° of the Country Girh
I admire the country girl. I have seen
her in all parts of our country, in twenty
states, but for true womanliness give me the
New England girl. Iappreciate all the
little accomplishments which so add to her
attractiveness at their true value, and no
more. I want to know what man could be
pleased to come in to dinner and find it
ulifib to be eaten, while hbi wife was ainging
"Winne Wings" in the parlor ? What effect
for good or pleasure would a handsome tidy
or fine painting have on a man who was
forced to eae a poorly prepared supper. We
men are all brutes, and the mutat way to
our hearts is through the stomach. We all
nave art eye for beauty, but, the dining -room
generally. bas more charms for nu than the
parlor. But after the inner roan is put at
ease it is time to call attention to tidiee,
music and pictures. One strong point for
admiration in the country girl is her ability
to take good care of a home—a home, not
an existing place.
• I lenoweeome country girls who are think-
ing that a wealthy prince is coming along to
offer hie heart and fortune. But, bless you,

may not care a continental if a whole College
of Cardinals were to anathematize it as
wrong, there is none of it. On this Contin.
ant, however, it is almost eetirely confined
to certain parte of the Southern States. In
the North it has been very effectively bun
fatted out of existent:le by the fiat of the law,
and not less effectively by ridicule. But in
the South men are still to be found who try
to settle difference cf opinion by seeking to'
take one another's liven The papers. for
example, tell of two young men in Texas,
who quarrelled about some girl while they
were gowg home from a party. Nothing
but blood would cht, and forthwith they en-
gaged in a desperate fight wieh bowie knives,
the result being that one foolish youth was
very speedily killed outright and the other
waa dangerously wound,ed. At a certain
piano in Miesouri also, during the course of a
base bell game which was being played for
the benefit of the Johnstown sufferers, two
of the players got into a dispute, and almost
into a fight. The next morning one of them,
a doctor, sent two of his friends, in the
regular romanoe style, to the, other man,
to arrange time and place for a duel as in
his opinion only in that way could the
satisfaction due from one gentleman to
another be obtained.
The " widow's mite" as an example of the
potency of giving In 'smali sums, is having a
wider influence now -a -days in raising sub-
soriptions for religions and charitable paw
posea than ever before. A scheme in the
form of a letter asking the recipient to give
Inc cents for a worthy object, and to pass
the request on to some pereon elee is familiar
enough. But even smaller gifts than this
are relied win to accomplish very large
works. In Montreal, to finish the great
cathedral of St. Peter, the Roman Cetholica
are asked to give a cant each, and this con-
tinued for e certein length of time is estimat-
ed to result in a sum large enough for the
purpose in hand. in:New York a Methodist

Honesty.
Truth is stronger than any network of
deception, however complex may be its weav-
ing, and sooner or later the reality will break
through and make itself manifest. It is only
question.of time when he who pretends to
wisdom which he has not is weighed and
'found wanting. Yet the betrayal of his
ignorance will be the least of the penalties
he will have to suffer. The greatest mistake
he has made has been in supposing that the
wise and gpod, whose esteem he covets,
value knowledge above sincerity. Ignorance
is, in itself, no disgrace. It may result from
eiromatances over which he could have had
no control. In Any oaee, the few things he
oan by the utmost labour acquire are a
mere nothing to those of which be must re-
main ignorant, But honesty is a character-
istic which all may poems, and its abonce
is a disgrace that nothing OM wipe out.

"But, good Nitzr1" exclaimed Max,

"No, my son—why ?"
"I wanted you to do me a favour."
"Perhaps I will; anyhow. What is 141"
"Well, you see, I hit my brother Dick in

"Well?"
"Well, w_ake a grab for me and I'll

you rush up and ring the bell and ask her if

Thick Skinned.
The distinction of being the thickest -
skinned quadruped belongs to the Indian
rhinoceros, whose bide has a knotty or
granulated surface; and is so impenetrable
as to resiat the claws of the lion or tiger, the
sword, or the balls of the old-fashioned
muaket. So stiff and hard is the Ain thab

animal imprisoned in its armor oould

leather of greet strength and durability, and
targets and shields are made of 14 that are
absolutely proof against darts or ' sword
strokes. The skin of the hippopatamua runs
that of the rhinoceros very closely aa regards
thickness, When dried it is also need for
shields, which are highly prized by the
natives.
