The First Chew,
The boy said it was a peculiar kind of
tobacco, aud was known as molasses tobacco
because it wee so sweet. The other boys
did not ask how he came to know its name,
or where he got it -boys uever ask anything
that it wattle bo well for them to know -
but they accepted his theory and his further
stetement that was of a mildness eingularly
adapted to leavners without misgiving, The

tny boy took as large a bit as his benedictor
bade him. He found it RS SWCCt OS Ile had
been told it was, and he acknowledged the
aptness of its name of molasses tobacco. It
seemed to him a golden opportunity to ac-
quire a noble habit on easy teems. He let
the quid rest in his cheek, as he had seen
men do, when he was not crushing it be-
tween ids teeth, and for some momente he

Somehow, lie del nob know how he got nut
of the canel boat and started homeward,
but at eveey stop the ground rose as high as
his knees before him and then, when he got

sleep which lasted the whole ef tampon, so
that it seemed to him the next day when he

very lively.
Perhaps he had swallowed some of the
poisonous juice of the tobacco ; perhaps it
had acted upon his brain without that.
His father made no very close inquiry Otto
the facts, and he did nob forbid him the use
of tobacco. It was not necessary ; that

How to Treat a Sweetheart,
From an Mil New England scrapbook.
When he erenes to see you let me give you a
few hints as to your treatment of hitn :
First of my dear, don't let hint got lin
Mee that your One object in life is to get all
you can out of him.
Don't lot him believe that yon think so
lightly of yourself that whenever he has an
idle moment he can find you ready and will-
ing to listen to Mtn.
lama Im him think that you are goingout
triviug with him alone, even if your mothee
should be lenient enough to permit this.
Don't let hitn think that you are going to
the dance or the frolic with him ; yott are
going with your brother, or else you axe
going to make tip a party which will all go
together.
Don't let hint spend his meney on you;
when he goes away he may bring you a box
of sweets, a book, or seine muste ; but don't
make him feel that you expect anything but
courteous attention.
Don't let him call you by your first name,
at lutist not till you are ougaged to him, and
then only when you are by yourselves.
Don't let him put his arms around you
and kiss you; when he mit the pretty ring
on your finger that meant t leat you were to
lie his wife soon, he gained a few rights, but
lot the one of indiscriminate caressing.
When he placecb it there he was right to put
O kiss on your lips -it was the seal of yottr
love; but if you give your kisses too freely
they will prove of little value. A maiden
fair Is like a beautiful, rich, purple plum ;
it hangs high up on the tree anti is looked
at with eery. He who would get it must
work for it, and all the trying should be on
his side, so that when lie gets it, he appreci-
atee it.
If my love shall prove unkind,
How may I reprove her ?
Shall I tell her all my mind ?
Will its pleading move her ?
Or would silence golden be
In my heart's mute anguish ?
Mightshe not still careless be,
Thoughany love did languish ?
If I, kneeling at her feet,
Tell my heart's desire,
Will her heart in union beat,
Moved by love's true tiro?
Might she not mistake my sense,
Bid me cense my wooing?
So would all rny eloquence
Be Mill° own mining.
Better now than later know
If my wooing please het. :
She may love me never, though
I might longer tease her.
Then ito more will I delay ;
Brave hearts do not tarry ;
I will ask tny love to•day
If she will not marry.
