SHORT BITS.
The more virtuous a man is the more
virtue does he see in others.
A coxcomb is ugly all over -with the af
fectation of a fine gentleman.
A -word once .spoken, a four-horse car
riage cannot overtake it.
He needs strong arms who is to swim
against the stream.
There's beggary in the love that can be
reckoned.
None but death loves the lips by love
forsaken.
Has it never occurred to baseball men
that a milk pitcher is generally a good
fly catcher?
The editor of the Cincinnati Commer
cial, who has farming ideas, thought
that to have buttermilk he must buy a
goat.
"There's no place like home," repeated
Mr. Henpeck, looking at the motto, and
he heartily added, "I'm glad there
isn't."
When a Cincinnati man speaks of the
production of his pen, you "never know
whether ho is a literary feller or a hog
raiser.
The young man who has proposed and
has been neither accepted nor rejected,
knows how exciting it is to live in a
doubtful state.
The man who advertised that his bit
ters contained no rum, but produced the
same effects, has been selected to jiass
round the plate.
Wives seem created to be butts. Mnuv
a man, now, like Pan, plays upon that J
which was formerly the object of his
fond pursuit. j
Should the body sue the mind before j
a court of judicature for damages, it I
would bo found that the mind would I
prove to have been a ruinous tenant to '
its landlord.
The affections, like the conscience, are
rather to be led than drawn; and 'tis to
be feared that they who marry where
they do not love will love where they do
not marry.
"Never borrow trouble," said a hus
band to his wife. "Oh, let her borrow
it if she can," exclaimed the next-door
Heighbor; "she never returns anything,
you know."
There is a slight hope for art. We
saw half a dozen quite pretty landscapes
in a show window this morning, but not
a cat-tail, a lily-pad or a stork standing
on one leg:.
"How musically his hoof beats
sound!" exclaimed an enthusiastic lover
of the turf, as St. Julien speeded around
the course at Brighton last week. "Yes,:'
replied his companion; "he is beating
time."
Boston recently celebratod its two
hundred and fiftieth anniversary, and it
is said that some of the hotels served up
for the occasion spring chickens born
on the identical day the oity was
founded.
Consoling: Poor author: "Heavens,
what a pain there is in my head!" His
wife: "Complaining of that! You ought
to be thankful there is anything in it."
Where arc Hie Boys I
"A Sad Observer" writes of the multi
tudes of idle boys, man' of them sons of
worthy parents, who are seen loafing
about the country towns boys who are
out at niht, and who prefer the street to
the attractions of the most pleasant
homes. There is a great deal about this
subject th it is diflicult. The serious
difliculty is found at the beginning, that
the training of childreu is always an ex
periment made without experience. One
must live a life to know how to live.
After sons and daughters are grown,
character formed, and destiny fore
shadowed, it is easy for the parents to i
look back and discover where they have
erred in their training but it is
very diflicult, nay, impossible to
human wisdom, to foresee and avoid
those errors. Sometimes a boy who is
carefully and strictly trained will fly off
as soon as that restraint is withdrawn, as
it sooner or later must be, into ways of
dissipation; and hence parents lose faith
in vigorous control. Those cases are,
however, exceptional. There are a few
general rules and principles which
should be enforced at whatever cost of
these, first, obedience. .Let. commands
be given only when they are necessarv,
and let them bo wisely girm, but en
force them. Second let it be remem
bered that habit is the chief forco in char
acter. Boys learn to like those things to
which they are habituated. Compel
them to remain at home in the evenings.
They will find it irksome at times, and
vet if never permitted to be out at
ni"ht, except in company and circum
stances selected by the parent, they will
find amusement in reading, music, and
in other refining home pleasures, and by
the time they aro eighteen to twenty,
will have formed habits and tastes which
will lead them from choice to exclude
evil coursos and companions. Do not
let a boy run in the streets, and be out at
night, and yet hope to save him for any
thing useful. Jt caunot be done. He
may be lost in spile of all your efforts,
but without restraint he is sure to be
lost. Let the touch of affection be soft
and gentle, but the hand of restraint
must be as inflexible as iron. Let him
know by continual and consistent kind
ness that you love him, and yet that you
are immovably firm in all questions of
principle aud'right conduct. Interior.
