No class of young people are so ranch abused as marriageable young ladies, and none are so helpless to de tend themselves, when called by these opprobious epithets, "heartless" fin constant" and "merciless." Hid se curely away in almost every young lady's history there is a story ot heart-break and blasted expectations of which the cold world around has never dreamed. Hence her readiness to disclaim all knowledge of love. Perhaps her most intimate confidants would not believe she had a roman tic episode connected with her life, but the sad expression on the young face is all that proves she has suffered. Her gradual giving up of worldlyin terests will show how much. Not one half of the women who marry give their lives into the keeping of men of theirjchoice. In almost every instance the man she loves best in the world is one who is not looked upon with favor by the parents. Can there be a more trying position for a loving young woman? She has been tend erly reared and beloved by her par ents with an idolatrous devotion; they have staked much upon her comfort able and brilliant settlement in life, but when her lover comes, and she knows her. heart, can never be given to another, notwithstanding their deep contempt for him, she sees what a disappointment she will be to them if she follows the prompting of her heart. Then comes the conflut between buty and inclination. Parens are growing old, and though she may have outgrown the school-girl age she knows her duty is to them. It is al ways a mystery to those who have passed the prime of life, why a daughter should not find it just as convenient tomarry as she selects, in stead of bestowing ber heart upon a nameless young man who has no wealth. The girl goes blindly to work determined to do w"hat she thinks is right. She has been taught to obey her parents, and, besides, she must not embitter their latter years by an act of hers. After much thoughtful consideration she gives up all her thoughts of a marriage that would grieve them, and heroically sacrifices herself in obedience to their wishes. She does not dare hope much for the future, but she believes she will be happy in the consciousness that she has done ber duty, and the man she marries (poor innocent) knows no thing oi this little by-play, and be leives he possesses his wife's undivid ed heart, but the bitter awakening will come in time, and the result is an unhappy home. A man should mar ry, when young, some maiden who loves him for himself alone, rather than wait for maturer years that have brought wealth that weighs so heavily in the social balance, and ul timately will drag his soul into the very depth of shame, when he realizes he has bought and paid for a heart he never owned a life that has dragged merely an existence by his side, un complain ingly, perhaps, for years Thus the traffic in human hearts con tinues from age to age, and the world never thinks of blaming the fathers and mothers, but Censures those to whom little bame belong, f?ho are more sinned against than sinning. Correspondence in Cincinnati Farm ing World. UHI SPECILATIOV SOT A CBIHE The San Francisco Journal of Commerce says : Not a few there are wbo take supreme delight in med dling with their neighbors' business, in faot they are never happy except when they are making others perfect ly miserable in endeavoring to ren der them supremely felicitious. Such people in politics have given rise to wars and turmoils without number; in fact it is open to question if two thirds of the wars whose records stain the page of history would have arisen without them. What homes ruined, what families separated, what nations devastated, what peoples lost their liberty through this dread ful propensity, may never be told till the last great accounting day. These people are very solicitous that what gambling, as they call it, should be put down, and they are mooving heaven and earth to have it made illegal to buy or sell except on the platform that they favor. They are now besieging the New York Legislature, and if successful there it will not be long till the advance guard finds its way to California, and till it will be heard knocking at the doors of the capitol to put a stop to the call system in this city. And preparatory to their assaults on legislative bodies they have taken action so as to provide minor annoy ances for they who will conduct their business in their own way. In Pitts burg recently they indicted a firm of brokers as gamblers. The defendants Bryan, McHullen and Gurlien, grain brokers were in dicted for keeping and maintaining a gambling house, under the act of 1860, ..which refers to games of chance, such as faro and keno, and the methods generally adopted by common gamblers. The testimony for the prosecution showed that the business in which they were engaged was about the same as putting up margins on oil and stocks. They dealt in options, "futures," and "puts" and "calls." Considerable interest was manifested in the case, from the fact that it involved the very import ant question whether the grain-brokerage business, or any other similar business of a speculative character, is legitimate. The Judge, in charging the jury, merely reviewed the testi mony, and left the question, of specu lalion in stocks of any kind, or op tions, before the jury. The verdict, as delivered, decided that the de fendants were not common gamblers. Why it should be a crime to offer to pay $1 60 for wheat in September any more than in May, it passes four comprehension to discover. Of course the man who offers it expects to buy it for less when he may have to pay more; but such contingences arise in all business. The common sence of the world will soon laugh the moral mongers out of court. CAST COOK LIKE HOTSEB. How many a young wife's heart is saddened and happiness scattered be cause she cannot "cook as mother did".- It is -strange, sadly strange, and yet we all know it is true. How many a time has the tender hearted reporter felt his soul bursting with grief as he told the har-iowing story of some poor suffering woman, whose cheerful sunshine had turned to duk ness just because she could not 'Scock as mother did." And how it delights the heart of the reporter when he chances to hear of one devoted young wife is rescued from the gloomy fate of so many, in a manner so simple and easy that only wonder is that all are not saved. This one to whom he now refers was led a blushing and blooming bride, but a few short weeks ago, to the alter by one of our most promising and prominent young men. He promised to do everything in his power to make her happy, but in an evil hour he made the discovery that she could not "eook as mother did." He told her so, and from that hour the life light of happiness began to die out in her once happy radiant eyes. The bloom that put to shame the fancied perfection of the rose departed from her cheek ,the voice that wel comed him to a happy heart and home grew silent as the grave, and the young husband saw that some thing must be done soon. He asked the sorrowful wife why she was so sad, and she could not "cook as moth er did." Girls, take warning, learn to cook a good meal of vituals, and your future happiness is in your own hands. AHTSETOSTS FOE CHRISTIANS, In the Brooklyn Tabernacle, re cently, Mr. Talmage described the pleasures a Christian might consist ently enjoy ; "The church has been denouncing hurtful and dangerous amusements for centuries," said Mr. Talmage, "and it is time to tell the people what they may do. This world will never be reformed by a religion of 'Don't !' There is no reason why Christians should be forbidden to enjoy themselves. I mean to aeive a writ of ejectment on all the sinful ones who have squatted on the in heritance of the children of God, and clear it out for the rightfnl heirs. It is a wrong to say constantly that 'this is wrong' and 'this is wrong' without showing which is right, I will show you forms of enjoyment good for body and mind. First, of indoor sports, music vocal and instrumental. It was one of the fiist things God created. Then I would recommend the gymnasium. There are Christians who would be mightily benefited by it. Some men pass their lives talking about their im mortal souls, when the trouble with them is incompetent livers, To .be pious they think they must be poorly. The world scoffs at 'muscular Chris tianity,' but a consecrated soul and muscular vigor is what is needed. With such a puny set of Christians as we have in this world we can never capture it fo r God. Parlor games and amusements will make homes attractive. Don't stand be fore your children as examples of immaculate goodness. Because your ankles are stiff and your eyes dim, don't wonder why the children's eyes brighten at the dance. Chess, charades, battledore, calesthenics have not one taint of iniquity about them. Take your families out to places or amusement. The lecture platform has set the world seventy five years ahead. I commend the croquet ground, the hunter's gun, the fisherman's rod, archery and oth er field sports. We want more free air, more sunshine and abandon ment to field sports in our lives, and more sunshine and free air in our theology. The reformers of the world sit in their studies until they grow morbid and think everything is wrong. The children of God are not on their way to the penitentiary, but to a palace. There is no grander recreation than the pleasure of doing good." WHY SCHOOL OO.VT KEEP VI pAJft. (Detroit Free Press.) When he had finished with the climate, soil, and productions of Idaho, one of the group asked: "How about education facilities V "iThat's the only thing we lack," replied the old man, with a mournful sigh. "We've got schools enough, but we can't keep no teacher's." "What's the trouble?" "Well, take my school, for instance only two miles from the nearest house, eminently situated on the top of a bill, and pay ing the highest salary. We can't keep a teacher over two weeks." "Do they die?" "Some do, though it's no place for dying. We Lad a young fellow from Ohio, and he met a grizzly and whistled for him. The grizzly cum. We had another, and a widder run bira down and married him inside of a month. The third ono was lame, and the Injuns ove took him. We then tried women folks. The first one got married the night she lit down there; I took the second about the middle ef the third week, and the next one was abducted by a stage robber." "Why don't you get the ugliest, homeliest woman you can find- some perfect old terror, like that lantern-jawed, razor faced female over by the ticket-window ?" "Why don't we ? Stranger, you eastern folks will never under stand us pioneers in the world never. That's my wife the ident ical school teaohcr J married, and she was the handsomest one in the drove !" Rates of Advertising MADE KNOWN ON APPLI CAT J OST the Apache difficulties not overcome, the expense reached $438,500, The total costs ot these active attempts to control the aborigines was $5,058,? 821, but this is a mere fraction of the cost to the Government of watching the Indian tribes that were not trave ling abroad in war-paint, but which bad to be watehed tQ keep them, quiet. The aggregate costs of all kinds, of service by the United States Army west of the Mississippi, in which part of the country there was no proper occupation for the soldiers but fighting or police duty on Indian, account, was, for the last ten years, $205,474,759. This has been the cost of troops, and does not take iutQ account the peace offerings, annuities and other inducements to prevent the use of the tomahawk and scalp-, mg-knife, which have been provided at very large expense by the Gov-, eminent. During the last ten years the troops have been distributed as, follows: The number employed each year in observation or control of Indians, has ranged from 17,000 tq 21,000, and the number otherwise, employed from 6,000 to 9,000. The total force has fallen from 28,183 in, 1872 to 25,183 in 1881. The aver age number used in the Indian conn-, try has been a little more thaq seventy-three per cent, of the whole force. While the cost of these troops is given at $20,4t4,759, Adjutant General Drum decides that this is not all the expense which can be charged to them, and furnishes tables, with items additional, to be charged on appropriations for supplies, inci dental expenses, transportation, pur chase of horses, and other trifles, which make the grand total ot $223, 891,264. According to Genera Sherman, the army now consists c 23,785 enlisted men and about 2,000 officers. Of these, all the cavalry, all the Indian scouts, twenty-four out of twenty-five regiments of infantry numbering 18,529 men, are west o yne Mississippi while the total num ber east of the Mississippi ift His general conclusion is, without examining the figures closely, that four-fifths of the expenditures of the: annual appropriations had been made on Indian account during the U years between 1872 and 1882. Th worst feature of the affair is that w do not see any prospect of a reduc tion of expenditure on this account.

Never use a lady's name in an improper place, or at a.1 improper time, or in mixed company. Never make assertions about ber th at may be untrue, allusions that she herself would blush to hear. Shun men who do not scruple to make use of a woman's name in a, reckless and unprincipled manner. They are the very worst members of the community lost to every sense of honor, every feeling of humanity, Many a good and worthy woman's character has been forever ruined and her heart broken by a he qon-. cocted by an unprincipled villian, but behevd by people of good priu--ciples who are too ready to believe slander or condemn imprudence and crime. The smallest thing deroga-. tory to a woman's character will fly on the wings of the wind, and mag- fy as it circulates, until its weight oonaajona victim.
