What a thifabric-anon for childdren to frame Sacrifice a few moments from the club or play, Take a pen and jot down the news of the Way— The health of your family, your friends or your own, And mark it ” post-haste " to the old folks at home.

Farther alon in life, in your hey-dey years, Whose pillow grew hard and dame with tears, At dear ones inclined from virtue to stray, And were sowing wild oats in a prodigal way ? No prince or potentate high on a throne, But dearer to you, the old folks at home. Then write them a letter and speed it away, In heat of patiently snnshinetor ream each clay, In search of letters that seldom came, Then send it along with love and good will. And you'll have no regrets when they rest on tae hill. Stub Ends of Thought. Truth is mighty and will prevail when there is money in it. e A woman will do more kindly things than she will say. Men would be different if their con- sciences were not elastic. One difference between wealth and fame is, fame is what other people think a man has, and wealth is what he knows he has. Love is the divine hypnotism. What a woman says to -day does"•.not apply to what she may think to -morrow. Cupid is thinkless. Man's inconstancy is no greater than woman's inconsistency. A certain amount of frietionais neces- sary to friendship. There are as many men angels aslthere are women angels. No two ltlt% are exactly alike, They generally agree to disagree. A Tuan known to be a fool should ex- cite mere of pity than anger, Privilege is mere immunity, not power to invade the rights of others. Some men are all inttstard, and none of us like mustard for itself alone. That man wants to be taken care of who thinks no one is right but himself. He is a disagreeable companion who has nothing but a snarl 'for everybody. To depart safely from the truth re- quires good memory and sound discretion. The man is unfortunate who possesses nothing for which he can be envied. The liberal mind is always open to coi- tion; there is always room for improve- ment.. It isn't always the man who;has honey- in oneyin his words who is free from fraud in his acts. The man who is always wise for others has great difficulty in being wise for himself. There is much of affectation in the per- son who is incessantly complaining to his fellows. The man -who is persistently inquisitive scarcely, if ever, retains the information given. Don't waste your spleen on a man after he is dead. His ashes will never feel the reflection. It is a good maxim to forgive many of- fences of others before you fully exculpate yourself. The man who is always thinking of evil things will most likely be a sufferer from his thoughts. It is not always the damage of an in- jury that is galling, but the spirit in which it is prompted. A man who is always boasting of what he has done is not always the boldest in the hour of danger. Let common report of you be good. Like fame, it gathers strength as it pro- ceeds and swells as it rolls along. There is no harm in a fellow being just as funny as his nature prompts him; only he must stick to the truth. Don't try to add to the mystery of an unknown subject something of a deeper mystery, a more unknown. The man who is always fiery and un- tamed in his efforts to convince is like one planting flowers on a barren soil. Some men are so fiery foolish that, in attempting to enlighten others, they only mystify and lead astray. Reason and good address can frequently accomplish good results where violence and force would be disastrous. If one wishes to always remain com- mendable in the eyes of others let hint strive to do only that which is useful. Don't lead one less fortunate than your- self into error. You may become desper- ate in poverty yourself some day. .A. man advocating a cause with a dark purpose fears even the shadow that might develop from new light upon the subject. When defeated in an ambitious prefer- ment it is only one of weak and narrow mind who will indulge in so dark a pas- sion as revenge. The wretched are capable of violence as well as perseverance; wisdom would sug- gest caution in provoking such to opposi- tion or resistance. Aphorisms. An obstinate man does not hold opin- ions, but they hold him. When impious inen bear sway, the post of honor is a private station. Occupation is the necessary basis of all enjoyment. Do not wait for extraordinary eireum- stances to do good aetions ; try to use or- dinary situations. The ohains of habit are too small to be felt until they are too strong to be broken. The sunshine of life is made up of very little beams, that are bright all the time. Adversity has the effect of eliciting tal- ents which in prosperous circumstances would have 1 tin dormant. Full Points. An evil thought grows by what it feeds An insult will hardly admit of com- pensation. The man who always lies does not al- ways deceive. Most of us act more from habit than from reflection, Once is quite enough for a man to ex- pose a, sore toe. There can be no pure friendship with- out sympathy. What we want is mutuality of inter- ests—equal freedom. A mail is low down who lives only on the fame of others. Many xnen are like a bird on a, branch, —always wavering. It isn't always the wisest man who never deserts an idea. Frequently in persuading others we convince ourselves. To suspect your fellow is worse than to be deceived by hien. It isn't safe'. always to anchor in the harbor of "hearsay," An imposter always uses a club instead of words of persuasion. fifteen minutes before she sweetly said ; -My daughter and I would be pleased to have you gall, Mr, Dash. My house is always open to gentlemen." Or, "My daughter is always .on the market ; call and inspect her !" moaned the daughter, in a rare outburst of rebel- lion. "It's an awful thing to say, but I declare sometimes I almost feel ashamed 0'f mamma !" And is "mamma" the martyr? SOME GIRLS' MOTHERS. • A GAMULEWS TRICK. It Did Not V'ork in the Case Here ate, laced. " You can always beat a gambler at his own tricks if you are a fairly good player and watch his moves and Dards closely enough to get onto his stock tricks," 'said a stock exchange man who has the repu- tation of playing a very stiff hand when occasion requires. "Once I sat into a 5 -handed game and started out with $10 worth of ohips'and soon lost them. After a few pots I noticed that two of the amen, who sat together, had a strong proclivity for aces, and I suspected that they were playing foul hands. By keeping a sharp eye on them I saw that one of iem was holding out acus by slipping the Dards be- tween his knee and the under edge of the table. When he got a hand he would slip out the carol from beneath with his thumb, show aces full and then toss them quickly into the pot. " 1 got a pair of jacks, opened the pot and pulled my hat down so that I could watch the fellow closely. He raised the pot and I stood the raise. He drew two cards and 1 drew three, When I drew my three I didn't stop to examine them, but put my chips ou top of them. Then I gathered up the deadwood and put it on top of the dock and placed the deck close to me. "I then bot a check, he raised me and tapped him. He called the bet and asked what I had and I replied 'pair of jacks.' " 'And I've got ace full,' he returned. "'Is that -so? Let me see it,' I an- swered. " What he really did was to draw a small pair and one ace, having held out two aces. That made him an ace full without regard to the cards he drew. But he had no way of disposing of the cards that he had drawn and that left him with seven cards. "He doubled up the cards so as to show the five that made the ace full and then tried to threw them on the deck. But I put my hand over the deck and made him spread his hand down on the table. That showed up his foul hand and gave me the pot. " Yes, sir ; if you watch a gambler close enough you can easily tell on what line he is trying to trick you. But, of course, you have to know the game pretty well." • The Trials and Tribulations Are Not All on the Parents' Side. ' Every question has two sides, except the woman question. That, we are told, has but one, and the other sex is its prophet. Popular sentiment usually counts another exception in favor of that person on whom, wisely or otherwisely, much sympathy is expended—the mother whose daughters are ashamed of her. The columns of periodicals devoted to "home" topics fairly groan under the load of scorn and condemnation which are poured on the head of a young wo- man who is met more frequently in those pages than elsewhere—she who openly acknowledges that "mother is so old- fashioned, ldfashioned, I'm really ashamed to have her around where company is." The daughter's side of the subject is never turned up, and, theoretically, doesn't exist, though practical observation can- not but have given us sympathy with one girl's burst of frankness, "Well, if I had some girls' mothers I know I should be ashamed of them 1" There are mothers and mothers, and the time to see them at their best and worst is the summer season, and the place is the summer hotel. There we may observe that commonest of this country's social phenomena—the family where the younger .generation. has been afforded advantages never enjoyed by the older one. The trst fruit of the advan- tages creates almost as much trouble as an uncertain fruit eaten in a certain garden — the attempts of Mary (or "Marie" as she probably begs to be sail- ed, and is as probably refused) to "fix up" mother to the latter'e tearful indig- nation. "I always say °Chaney,' Mary," she remonstrates, and my dear mother taught me to eat with my knife and turn the blade outward. And if I say 'law say' and 'those kind of things' is old- fashioned, I'm old-fashioned, too ; and if me and my clothes don't suit you, I'm sorry," and her tears reduce the un- fortunate Mary to a state of contrition which lasts till the next time, when she is sincerely and not altogether unreason- ably mortified to introduce to cultivated., refined people the dearest of mothers in the queerest of clothes and wit]i oddities of speech and lips of grammar which stamp her as "not a lady." Is the daughter foolish to care, or the mother selfish to take the trouble to unlearn old ways for newer, better ones; thatshe may take a prominent place, instead of the background, in her girls' social career? Still another type of mother, who is never snubbed or thrust aside in public, nevertheless costs her daughter many a bitter tear of mortification in private. She is the match -making mother—a long familiar type, whose day is near]y done. Reared under the old system, which de- fined man as a thing to marry and wo- man as a thing to bo married, she can- not look seriously on her daughter's neg- lect of the main chance and supple- ments maidenly pride with maternal push. We all know this mother and are sorry for her daughter. "Are you going for a walk, Mamie dear? The why don't you ask Mr. Blanc to accompany you?" Poor Mamie has no recourse but to swallow her angry tears and invite Mr. Blank, who, of course, is languidly "delighted, I'm sure," and if she liked himbeforea to hates him now, Ono of these mothers has not known a young "eligible" for Mary and Her Lamb. News is received from Boston that the original Mary who "had a little lamb" has passed away at the advanced age of 83. Although her identity as Mrs. Mary Tyler, of Somerville, Mass., was known to but few, she has been for years pro- bably the best known character in the country. Even the venerable Mrs. Hub- bard, whose larder was so scant that her poor dog could get no bone, Mr. andMrs. John Sprat, with their convenient com- plementary tastes in meat, the somnolent Bo-peep, the ravenous Jack Horner, the acrobatic Jack and devoted Jill must be rated as far less interesting personages than she. Her little history, simple yet affecting, is one of the .first prattled by childish lips, and save in the interval of harum-searum boyhood, when "little lambs at play" are apt to be amused with sticks and stones, it never passes out of mind. In the years of college glee clubs the lainbs powers are developed and it comes out in the role of an enthusiastic patriot :. Mary had a little Iamb, Its fleece was white as snow, And everywhere that Mary went The lamb was sure to go, Shouting the battle cry of freedom, As years go on, parentage again finds the lamb quiet and gentle, and another generation in its turn learns of its snow- white fleece and loving disposition. The owner lived to a ripe old age, full of good works, and died honored with the title of affection and honor, "Aunt" Mary. The subsequent history of the lamb has never been recorded,: Advancing age and a butcher's knife probably proved to be a complication of diseases that its constitu- tion could not withstand. Besides, the hoarseness resulting from constant shout- ing for freedom would prove too much for any ordinary lamb. HOW HE CURED CYRUS. ilowv upper -out two or three days before, and'he was oalkelatin' on spilliii' illy cliawin' machine at the fust blow.

Says I: " Cy, will you quit yer sass and itameklo if I don't lick ye?' (' And he said, 'Father, raise your dukes a lode higher and look out for 1110.'

He give give me one on, the tooth -box as T closed in, but arter that the gate money was mine, I throw+ed him into the mangier, over tike fannin' spill and behind the granary, and I was goin' to run him through the corn shelter when he hollered 'Enough !' and begged me to let up on him. Swellin' all wont out of his head that night, and when I licked him with a cornstalk next day he was as humble as a calf. Gymnastics is all right up to a certain pint, but when you git beyond it it's dangerous, S'poso I hadn't come out on top of Cy! Why, sir, he'd been Muf- fin' me outer the house by this time, and probably had a matoh on with Sullivan." Newspapers and Morals. In one of the Toronto pulpits a weeleor two ago an eloquent and deservedly popular preacher took occasion in a dis- course, which was for the most part an admirable one, to read the newspapers of the country a lesson on their duties in conserving the morals of the community in which they are published. The tone of the criticism was kindly, with an apologetic deprecation of any notion on the part of the speaker that he could edit a newspaper better than the editor. But there was a certain decided expression of opinion that in certain particulars the newspapers are not what they should be. The particulars specified were in the so- ciety column and the publication of de- tails of prize fights; and the character of the criticism can be gathered from the following queries of the clergyman : "Of what earthly interest is it to anybody but the young lady herself that Miss So-and- so has gone to Montreal or London for a week?" and "why should the editor who denounces prize -fighting in the column devoted to the expression of opinions ,give up several columns in another portion to the details of a brutal conflict?" The criticism embodied in these queries undoubtedly voices the sentiment of a very considerable class in the commun- ity; but it is based on a conception of the function and purpose of the newspaper which is essentially erroneous, not to say absurd. The newspaper is undoubtedly a great power in the land, and has a great deal to do with the moulding of public opinion. Primarily, however; it is not established for those purposes, but as a business venture ; and its success in moulding public opinion and encourag- ing morality is, as a role, proportionate to its success as a business venture. It is the newspaper which reaches the masses, and which is therefore a success- ful business venture, which exercises the power which its critics concede; but in order to reach the masses it must print a good•deal that is not quite to the taste of the severe critic, perhaps not always en- tirely to the taste of those who are man- aging it as a business venture. One of the essentials of the successful conduct of a newspaper is to print what the people want. Otherwise the paper will not be read, in which case it will not attract advertising patronage, and its views on moral questions will be of no particular importance, and certain- ly of no particular value. If the people want what is irreverently called "society slush" it is the business of the newspaper to print it in moderation; and the same is true of the details of prizefights. The editor may not bdlieve in either. He may denounce prize fights and regard the desire of the society person to see his or her name in print as of small account. But if he wants an audience for his valu- able opinions on these points, and especi- ally if he wants to reach the class which most needs to be reached, he must pub- lish the news or the pith of it. As to the society column which the sarcasm of our esteemed critic was levelled, we think he greatly underestimates' its interest and value. , It, not only interests the young woman who has been to Montreal to see that fact in print, but it interests her to read of the other young women who have been, or are going, to Hamilton or Brantford, and of the other young wo- men who have given 5 o'clock teas or parties. And as these are also interested in seeing a printed account of what they and each of them have done, the number interested grows very large when social events are brisk; and the number of readers secured for the editor's discjuisi- tion—if he has any—on the weakness of caring for such things is greatly in- creased. As for the stern merchant to whom such things aro vanity and vex- ation. of spirit, he can skip the society column and the prize fight reports, and devote himself to the editorial presenta- tion of the moral aspect of both these questions. The Point at Which Gymnastics Be- came Dangerous to Family Dis- spline. " This 'ere athletics and gymnasiums is all wrong," said the old man as he laid down his paper and began to shuck a three-ply peanut. "I've had a sample of it in my own family, and I know how it works." " Don't you believe in such exercises for a young man?" " Wali, the exercise may be all right, but the fellers git false ideas in their heads. Take my son Cyrus, f'r instance. Cy was a leetle inclined to consumption, and I rayther encouraged gymnastics. It wasn't three weeks afore he begun to git sassy. I gave him a Hokin' one day, and could see he didn't take it kindly. He began to put on airs over his mother, and when 1 cum to inquire around a loetle one day I found that Cy was on the box. He was a-holdin' up his dukes and knockin' the boys right and left. I over- heard him talkin' to our Bill about'posi- tion,' `guard,' 'break away,' 'knock out' and sick, and every, day he got sassier and sassier. He was eighteen years old, but I allus lick my boys till ,they are past twenty. I saw that Cy was goin' to buck. Thar' was Bill and Tom and Jerry to be affected by his example, and I telt that sunthin' orter be done. One day we was hosin' corn, and Cy was off. I didn't mind it fur a while, but bine-by I got riled and said : " Seems to me you ar' achin, fur a Hokin' .' "' Mebbe I am, father,' he replies, as cool as ice, 'blit I shan't git it, I've bin licked fur the last tine.'' ""Cause why?' 1 asked. "Cause I won'b allow it.' " Then I knew that the time had some when he'd got to have sunthin' stronger than hoes medicine. He'd got the big head on him trereenjus, and it was then Or never. "' Suppose we walk over to the barn, Cly?' X kseriessly remarked as I finished a row. "He said he was my huckleberry, • and we droppedour hogs and went. When we got inside both began to peel by mutual consent and Cy corned .again all over his face. He'd boon put on to the IT WAS TOO LATE. The Man Had Already Put Himself Out of the Reach of Soetety. The man with an important air took the seat next to the amiable -looking man and smiled. "Vacation trip, I suppose," ventured the important man. The other nodded. "Ever hear of the engagement insur- ance company ?" asked the man of im- portance. "You know in summer how very impressionable men are. 'Well, I represent a scheme that is simply great. A man may become engaged to a beauti- ful girl during his vacation and upon liis return to town totally forget the fact, owing to pressure of business. hard work, and so on. But the girl may remember, and then there` is likely to be trouble. Now you take out a policy in our com- pany and we insure you against further worry. Furthermore-" "But," interposed the amiable man, "I am not—" • "That may be," continued the other. "You do notseem to be that kind, but there's no tolling what may happen. Now, for a dollar a month you become a inembor of our company, and if you should become engaged and afterward suffer a lack of memory and a breach of promise case looms up, why then we take the matter out of your hands and settle it. See? Only one paltry dollar a month insures perfect liberty to you. Do you not think it would be well to take out a policy ?" The amiable man shook his head sadly. "No," he answered, "it's too lata.
