He made several *tempts to draw her into Con- versation, but without avail. At Iast he exclaimed -'Madame, why are you so ungracious Do you take me for - a wolf in sheep's clothing?' 'No-; quite the reverse,' answered the lady. • From 1789 tO 1889. - Wonder- ful! - Few.people, who have not made the matter a subject of study, are aware of the tremendous changer and wonderful progress that have been wrought in this land of ours within the one hundred years whose close we are just celebrat- ing. In 1789 there were ,no friction matches, or omrdbuses ; no railroads. nor steamboats; no telegraphs, nor telephones; no gas,nor electric lights, nor stoves, nor coal fires. The farmer, instead of riding gaily around his grain &Ids on a reaper, went laboriously through it swinging & scythe or sickle, till at sunset his back was well nigh broken; instead of threshing with a machine he beat the grain out slowly during the long .winter months with & flail; instead of mounting a double plough of steel he scratched the toil with a wooden plow. His wife and daughters were the ' busiest of women in spinning flax and weaving linen, and manufacturing a hundred things that now come- to them ready made. The fashionable tailor shop was patronized by the very select few, while the great majority of husbands and sons obtained their clothing from the industrious . needle of the wife and mother. The floors -of even the parlors -were sand- ed, not carpeted. There was no china , -except possibly a stray piece -in the cupboard, nor cut glass to reflect light for the eye. The young lady entertain- ed her suitor arrayed not in silk, but in linsey-wooIsey, or bright calico. And neither could cam' off in triumph the delightful vision of the other in the form • of a photograph. Books were like angel's visits -few and far betwein- and they were read by the aid, not of gas, but of the tallow dip and the pine knot, The rude sun -dial,- in Many homes, was the only family clock, and such an article as a watch for $3 would have been regarded as the eighth won- der of the world. People didn't travel mnch in those days. If a merchant wanted to go from New York to Boston he rode in a coach from 3 o'clock in the morning until 10 - o'clock at n'ght for six successive days. If he had busineas .at Albany he went by a sloop that might get in a wain for & week. It was not till after 1806 that Fulton managed to get the first steam craft- up the Hudson, and not till 1825 that George Stephenson had made a rail CM capable of beating the three mile pir hour cansi packet. Piety was not afraid of the cold a century ago, nay, even impenitent -.sinners were willing to go to church and sit without any kind of fire through a sermon of 15 heads or , more. Criminals could hardly get soross the line then to enjey their boodle in the Eruries of Canada. In fact, they were &lulled rather roughly. The counter - sitar got his ears - cropped and was ex - sed to the jeers of the public in the town pillory besides. A. thief was made to sit on the gallows as preliinin- ary to being tied to a whipping post for 39 bloody lashes. A forger got a red- hot brand applied to the pain of his hand. _ A pilferer would be sold into slavery for six months or two years. A burglar was hanged for his crime. And if a man contracted debts that he could not pay he went to the 'vilest, filthtest and darkest prison that could be de- vised, frequently out of some old aband- oned minethat was without light or ventilation. A gentleman in these "good old times" didn't lose his character by fighting duels, or gambling, or getting drunk every day, or attending cock fights and similar sports. Andrew jack; son, even so late as his day, could- bet In A cook -pit without forfeiting his re- spectability. Infidelity WAS oommon and rampant. "The boys" says Lyman Beecher, "who dressed flax in the barn, read Tom Paine and believed him." The students of Yale and Harvard were al- , most to a man profestied and aggressive infidels and atheists. At West. Point, ° so late as 1825, there was not one pro - fooling Christian among the professors or Cadets. It was difficult for a olerjy- man to get justice from .6 jury.- The General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in 1789, said: "We perceive with pain and fearful apprehension a general dereliction of religious principle -an abounding infi- delity -a dissolution of religious society - seems to be threatened. Formality and deadness, not to say hypocrisy, visibly pervade every part of the Church. The profligacy. and corruption of public morah have advanced with a progress proportioned to our declension in re- ligion." A - • The churches themselves, it must be confessed, were in & low state. Lotteries were authorized under their aid for endowing Harvard, Dartmouth, Union, Princetovrn and Rutgers ; nay, for the advancements of religion. The slave trade Was in full blast, and the selling of wives and children away from their husbands and parents was common all over the States. But we cannotenumerate further par- tier:hrs. Independence and freedom had been won i and ivith these Christian- ity took a fresh start, and now -at the end of a century's amazing progress we may thank God and take courage.- _ _ Christian at Work. not In the igkla but in'llitnie Whit - them," - Successful Poultry Raising. Tor+. Charles Lyman, a successful raiser of poultry, writes as follows in the Poultry -Book: In tailing poultry or stock of any kind it should be the aim of every one to keep, healthy and improve.. You can do it very easily by adopting some systematic.' rules; These may be summed up as fol: .Iowa: ' 1: Construct your house good and.„ warm, so as to avoid damp floors , and afford & flood of sunlight. Sunshine is better than medicine.. 2. Provide a dusting and scratching plack where you can -bury wheat` and corn, and thus induce the fowls to take ,the needful exercise. ' 3. Provide yourself with SOMe good, healthy chickens, none to be over three or four years old, giving 3un,e cock to every twelve hens. 4. Give plenty of fresh air at all times espeCially in summer. 5, `Give plenty of fresh water daily, and never allow the fowls to go thirsty., 6. Feed them systematically two ork threitimes a day; scatter the food so they mull eat too fast or without proper: exercise. ' Do not feed,more than they will eat up clean, or they will get tired, of that kind of food.- , 7, Give them a variety of both dr and sooked food; a mixture of cooked meat and vegetables is an excellent thing for their morning meal. 8. .Give soft food in the maiming and the whole grain at night, excepting little wheat or cracked corn placed in the scratching places to give them exer-1, dee during the day. . 9. 'Above all things keep the house clean and well ventilated. . 10. `00 not crowd too many in OHO house, if you do, look out for disease. 11. 'Use carbolic pciwder occasionally in the dusting bins to destroy lice. 12. Wash your roosts and bottoms of laying( nests, and whitewash once --.'is wweinetker.m. , sumerniand 'once a month in 13. -Let the old and young have as large a range as possible -the larger the better. -14. ,Don't breed' too many kinds of, fowls at the same time; Unless you are going into the business. Three sor font will give you your hands full. 15. Introduce new blood into your stock every year or so, by either buy- ing akcockerel or a setting of eggs from some reliable breeder. . 16. In buying birds or eggs. go to some , reliable breeder who has his reputation at stake. You may have to pay a lit- tle *ore for birds but you can -depend upon what you get. Culls are not cheap at any price. 17.: Save the beat birds for next year's breeding, and send the others to market. In shipping fancy poultry to market, send it dressed. Wages Paid in Chicago for Female Labor. Investigation provea that unskilled female labor in Chicago _ is not poorly paid, says the News of that city. The humblest work performed by women for hire receives a fair compensation in each and every instance, and there is plenty' of work to do. Under the head of un- skilled labor are laundry girls, washer- women, unprofessional nurses, scrub- women, chambermaids, waitresses and domestics. - There are perhaps 2,000 women in Chicago working in laundries. They work nine hours each day and receiveas compensation not less than $9 per week. Since the introduction of steam laun- dry machinery their labor is compare- tivelylight, the only hardship endured being the heat in the summer. There is no apprenticeship, except one week at the beginning of the employment, and any girl can earn a full salary at the end of the &It week. There are, however, small girls who perform light work,such • as dampening linen by sprinkling water on it, and they do not receive more than $4 for aareek's service:ACP- Washerwomen who go out by the day to wash for Private families receive $2 for a day's work, and in many instences are given their meals. Those who take in washing at their homes are general- ly widows or deserted wives who have small children that need their attention. They fix their own prices by the piece, and generally charge the same as steam laundries. Inquiry at several female employment agencies showed a demand for this kind of service that could not be supplied. Unprofessional nurses are paid $20 a month as a miniinum salary, and this includes board and room. They are neat and tidy girls, who have intelli- gence enough to make themselves useful around a sick room, and many are often paid $20 a month for their .services. If they are careful and reliable, physicians will recommend them, and they need never want for employment. At twelve o'clockosvery night the scrub -women in the big hotels 'begin their work. They get down on their hands and knees, and with soap, water and a stiff brush scrub the marble floors, wiping them dry with a cloth as they go along. These women are mostly Poles and Bohemians. Their pay ratIges from $12 to $16 a month, which includes board aid room. There is an army of these *omen employed to scrub the down -town office buildings, and they 'receive, in most instances $2 a day. The white -capped chamber -maid, who always looks- io neat in her plain calico dress, receives an intorno of $3 A week, including board and room. She needs no previous experience if she is intelli- gent and if capable of executing the or- ders of the housekeeper. The waiter girls in restaurants, board- ing houses and hotels get not less than $3 a week, which includes board and,ex- cept in restaurants,, a room. Many of them receive $4 and $5 a week, while ths kitchen girls and dish -washers. get $4 a week with board. There never has been a time in Chica- go when girls were not in demand at good wages to do general housework. There seems always to be -a scarcity of this kind of domestic service, although the lowest wages paid are $2.50 a week, and in many cases $5 is -offered without securing help. A very estimable wo- man who ' keeps a female employment office on Washington boulevard said: I can offer a good ekplanation for the arsccity of domestic servants. Girls re- fuse to work where they are misused., Even the worm will turn if trampled upon, and in my opinion the mistress of the house is often to blame for the dis- satisfaction of servants,. Their poodle dog is petted, when a, sensitive girl has her life made miserable. The fault is s. 4---?-istrogrimrsoffumer" , - T OTS FOR SALE -Two building Leis on% 14 oorner of Chalk and Gouinlook streets, ad- joining Victoria, Square, Seaforth.

He was very ignorantaind did not even know his letters. One day a tourist paused to rest under a 'tree where the farmer was eating dinner, and recited a pretty poem. The young man was pleased with it, and the stranger, gave him a written qopy. But it was useless to a man who could not readaind the traveler had to go over it with his finger, pointing out each word and let- ter. - After his friend left, the country- man went home and took his first writ- ing lesson from the written poem. One lettePwas missing -the letter Z. The next day he walked five miles to see a neighbor who .hewed him how to make it, and then he was master of the alpha- bet. He got wepelling-book and a read- er, and studied them by a pine -knot fire. Two years later he visited Mercer University at Penfield, during vacation time, and the professors showed him through the building. "He questioned me for an hour," said the professor of chemistry, "and went away knowing more about the science than some young men who have studied in two terms." "And I talked -with him an hour," said the professor of English literature, "and he attracted from me enough inforina- tion'te fill a volume." The young fellow had a regular tar baby of a memory. It stuck to every- thing. He entered the university, and became noted for his strong, clear style and his varied attainments. A country- man generally gets there when he makes a start, 1 ts, Absent Minded Men. When Rev. Dr. Bucktninister went to the Post Office to ask for a letter, he forgot his own name, and could not -ask for the letter until he went out on the street and inquired, of a man who knew him, whom he was lucky enough to meet. Sir Isaac Newton used to forget to eat his dinner, and Horace Greeley sometimes used to go to his work and forget to put on his emit. But none of: the above men were more forgetful than the Man mentioned in the subjoined anecdote: A' good anecdote is told of Peter Bur- rowe, the celebrated lawyer. A friend called upon him one morning in his dres- sing room, and found him shaving, with his face to the wall. He asked why he chose BO strange an attitude. The ans. weewas, "To look in the glass." "Why," said his friend, "there is no glass there." . "Bless my soul," cried Burrows, I did not notice that before I" Rigging the bell, he called his ser- vant, and questioned him respecting his looking glass. "Oh, sir," said the servant, mis- trestrhad it removed six weeks ago !"- Exchange. Toe Nails.
