, Ile was a clerk in Stewart's wholesale
store ; had not a eltick or child to leave
galything to' nor a father, nor mother,
'nor brother, nor. slater. Belied 4 salary
of $4,000 a year, and. added to it by—
perquisites, While the funeral corteee
WAS proceeding to Greenwood, the tre-
*It-lye, warrant in hand, was searching
bis roma and recovering some $2,000
worth of laces, silks and velvets, , How
much liad been sold and, gone to swell
the salary, probably will never be known.
He was a good. liter, He had choice
li uors, wines,
whiskeya and cigars.
had cutlass decanters hi silver stands,
Wine glasses and monograms to match,
solids ver salvers for cigar ashes, dainty

linger wls, a silver mounted. china hot
water .pitcher, silver sugar spoons with
aid hhing, and everything to match.
henlie entertained his friends, and he
diait Pretty frequently, the " spread "
was simply gorgeous. All his comrades
voted hnn the best of fellows, hospitable,
generons to a fault, princely.
But, notwithstanding- all this, he had
to die. It was very, strange ; but it
was true. The wine and. liquors, the
eagles* decanters, and the silver sets,
and the good, companions ,could not pre-
vent It Death doewnot icome on cere-
mony, and he came uninvited; and,
from all the gorgeous display of his good
living, death carried him off in a carriage
no larger than the poorest occupy, to a
Tot no better or more comModious.
• And !then, as there we're no relatives
to clairie anything, the public adminis;
trator took possession of ,his effects and
sold them for the public's benefit. They
were mostly wardrobe. There were a
hundred and forty-four pairs of pants ;
there Were an mu °ported number of
vests ; there were four dressing Owns,
silk and satin, gorgeous in facings and
trimmings,with half a dozen pairs of
embreided slippers; there were a hun-
dred neckties; there were five large
saratega trunks to keep his wardrobe
in. Think of it : two neekties a week,
nearly three pairs of pants a week, for
every week in the year. ! What a per-
plexity he met- have been in every mor-
ning, poor fellow, to decide how he
should apparel himself for the day._
A hiindred and forty-four pairs of
pants! ' And yet he left them all behind
him. His Greenwood wardrobe was no
better than that of the commonest por-
ter in the street ; hie celestial wardrobe
did notcompare with that of the beggar
that lay on earth at the rich man's gate,
but in heaven in Abraham's bosom.
When he died he left them all. And.
like enough the hundred and forty-four
pairs of pants are worm to -day by a
hundred and. forty-four individuals, not
one of whom poor Duncan McKirby
knew while he lived.
Poor feet ! to spend so much 'Roney
to so little purpose ; to leave, at the end
of his life, nothing to show for it all,
but a hundred- and forty-four pairs of
pants. ' And yet, as we read the story,
we thought -to ourselves this is just what
many a so. called Wise man is doing ;
many e railroad king and commercial
prince, the end of whose life, after all,
will be nothing but leaving, when he
dies, a few more pairs of pants behind
him than his neighbor. Is it worth while
working so hard to achieve so little?
Gain is tacit godliness; but " godliness
with conteritment is great gain ; for we
bronght nothing into the world, and it is
eertaini we can eerily nothing out."
Even he that has a hundred and forty-
four pairs of pants must leave them here
when he dies. What a pity I—Chi:Wawa

German Manners in Traveling.
Of that reticence of manner which we
are apt to consider as one of the essen-
tials of good breeding our cousins -ger-
man know nothing. .As a rule all classes
talk at the top of their very powerful
voices ;! no man waits for his neighbor
to finish the observations he has begun;
he shouts in reply as though the main
ei.bjeet ' were to be heard at any cost.
Take aleafe, a steamer, a railway car-
riage, any place of public resort where
two or three Teutons are gathered to-
gether,' and the result will be Voeiferous.
That finer instinct which teaches the
talker to lower his voice in a picture gal-
lery or a public garden, and produces a
pleasant hush in clubs, reading rooms
and theatres, is entirely wanting here.
There is nothing to be ashamed of in
what they were saying ; any one may
hear it ; what need to make a mystery
about why you are parting with your
nurse maid, or what yen are going to
have for dinner? f
Nor,asa rule, will the publicity of
the Rhine steamers, raitwe,y carriages,
Danube boats, or post wagons in any
way moderate the demonstrations of af-
fection with which many of your fellow_
travelers will beguile the way. It is
quite customary for betrothed couples
to exchange the most intimate endear-
ments, , sitting enlaced, in. each other's
arme, beneath the very noses of their re-
spective Fratb Mantas and Herr Papas,
who, in stout complacency, are probably
also sitting hand-in-hand and beaming
on things in general state of mild beati-
tude that nothing short of an earth-
quake or an explosion'could. disturb,
There is nothing surreptitious about the.
matter; no "fearful joy,',! snatched in a
moment of ardor or agony; no blushing
or bashfulness, no coyness or tremor,
neither haste nor hesitation. No, there
they sit ; square and broad, solidly sat-
isfied and partaking of the kisses and
the Butterbroder with calm impartiality.
If the journey be long, you may not im-
probably be tempted to wish - the boat
would blow up, so wearisome and. dissat-
isfied to you will become the enforced
proximity of their prosaic familiarities.
It will be objected that these arenot the
manners of good society i nevertheless,
they are the manners authorized by
custom and sanctioned by precedent.
They have even created a, walk of art

colored prints adorning inn parlors and

Limit Your Wants.
Frorli the nature of things, the income
of most of the inhabitants of the earth
must he limited, and. indeed within very
narrow bounds. The product of labor
throughout the world, if equally divided,
would not make the Char of each indi-
vidual large. It is imps dble that every
one should be what is -called rich. But
it ii by no means impossible to be lade-
. A
_ -
pendent. And what is the way to coin
pass this—as Burns appropriately desig-
nates it—"glorions privilege y' Th
method is very simple. It consists in on
rule : Limit your wants, make them ten,'
and inexpensive. To do this would in-
terfere but little with your real enjoy.1,
ment. It is mostly a matter of. habit,!
You require more, or you are satisfi
with less, just as -you have accustomed
yourself to the one or the other. Limit,
your wants, estimate their coat, and
never exceed it, taking pains aim ays to
keep it inside of your income. Thus you
will secure your lasting independence,I
Young men, think of this. A great deal
of the happiness of your lives depends
upon it. After having made your Money,
spend it as you ohoose, honestly ; hut be
sure you make it first.
Avoid Protracted Toi
The work of the day should • # con-
ducted in the best manner. Thorough,
careful, intelligent work during : tven or
eight hours is much more profitab e than
ten hours of hurried work. In cities,
merchants and business men sold in ap-
ply themselves more than six . ours a
clay, and probably the greater pa of the
best work done in that city is per ormed
in less than five hours each day. There
is no reason why farmers who ere to the
wealth of the world should I abo more
hours than they who manage this realth.
Formerly, constant toil was required to
support a family, because all wo k was
done at a disadvantage, tools of al kinds
were poor, and labor-saving mt hinery
was unknown. More actual wok was
required in the last generation to make
the clothing of a family than is now re-
quired to buy the clothing, and t e food
added, and every year the farm r has
new advantages and powers in t direc-
tion. it is for this reason that th : farm-
er should seek to enlarge his in ns for
acquiring information, and of r' ing to
new dignity.. This he can only do by
having more leisure, and by avoidi g pro-
tracted toil. There is no good reason
now why be may not unite cultut e and
elegance with rural pursuits.
Brain of Man and Ape
I Professor Owen is quoted as
before the Anthropological Society of
London, that as the brain of man i more
complex in its organization than th brain
of inferior animals, it is more su jeet to
injury, and more liable to experie !ce the
want of perfect development ; t i at in.>,
stances of idiocy occur among all # .s of
mankind, and that extreme small -s ess of
the skull indicates want of intell t ap-
proaching to idiocy. Alluding to the
attempts that have been made to find a
link of connection between man an, apes,
he remarked that it was possible t sat an
idiot with an imperfectly develope4) brain
might wander into some cave, an there
die, and in two or three hundr- t years
his bones might be covered with sit ud, or
might be imbedded in stalagmi and,
when discovered, such a skull mi i t be
adduced as affording the looked -fir link
connecting manwith the inferior a imals.
He expresses the opinion that the differ-
ence in question is altogether too ide to
be bridged over by the skull of an' crea-
ture yet discovered.

DIAMOND SPEcTA LES
THESE Spectacles are mannfactur.from
-L MINUTE CRYSTAL PEBBLES muted to-
gether, and are called DIAMOND on ac aunt of
their ardness and brilliancy. lila we known
that Spectacles cut from Brazilian or S itchpeb-
bles are only injurious to the eye, beeauo of their
polarizing light. Having been tested ith the
polariscope, the diamond lenses have bee found
to admit fifteen ner cent. lees heated r. ys than
any other pebble. They aro ground wi h groat
scientific accuracy, are free from chrom tie eh.
beratione, and produce a brightness and iotinet-
neos of vision not before attained- in up etacleo.
Manufactured by
The Spencer Optical Manufact Co.,
NEW YORK.
The great demand for these apeetaele has in-
duced unscrupulous dealers to palm oi an in.
inferior article for the Diamond. t care
should be taken to, see that the trade m ark oar.
whieh is protected by Letters Patent, is tamped
on every pair.
