A POINTER FOR GIRLS.
The following from an exchange is
very much. to the point:—The first
question a man asks when he sees a
girl flirting is whether she is respect -
o
able -lar not; it raises doubt at • once.
This beim; the case, no modest girl Gan
afford to indulge in the pastime. When
the down is blushed from a peach its
beauty is so marred that it can never
be restored, and when a young girl
throws lightly aside this sweet and
modest reserve eo becoming to a maiden
which elevates her and enables her to
command the respect c£ a11, she. loses
her greatest charm and becomes rather
cheap and common. Flirting may.
seem wonderfully amusing to a
thoughtless girl and she guar get, the
id;;a that she is fascinating, hut it is a
degrading thing, and should be frown-
ed down to every girl -who has an am-
bition to become a worthy and charm•

The Plebiscite,
Toronto, Oct. 17.—The latest figures
received by the local prohibitionists
indicate a majority of about 18,000
votes in the Dominion at large. See
retary Spence, of the Dominion Alli-
ance, received full returns frons Prince
Edward Island to -day. The vote was
9,461 for, 146 against—a majority of
8.815 for. This is a gain, as the orig-
inal returns gave a majority for pro-
hibition of only 6,500. Mr. Spence has
only estimates for Manitoba, the Ter-
ritories and British Columbia, but he
declares that the estimates are resell
able, and all show prohibitionist ma-
jorities. t He concedes @ a majorityin
Quebec of 91,608 so far as he has beard
from. Gaspie is still to be heard from,
but sods Muskoka in Ontario, and the
two districts should balance. The net
result, as Mr. Spenee figures it out, is
that the majorities in all the provinces
but Quebec will amount to 104;716,
and that the net majority in the whole
Dominion will be fully 18,000.
