SENSIBLE TALK.
The Social Intercoar.se of the
Youns of ISoth Mexes.
The modern girl (and the boys are
nearly as precocious) before they
have left off wearing bibs, begin to
have their small love affairs, and
these are continued, with more or
less desperation, till circumstances
of a sentiment which seems for the
moment deeper than ever before ex
perienced, bring about a climax in
the shape of a wedding. It is well
enough, perhaps, if this climax put
an end to the game; but, alas, the
habit of flirtation is one not so easily
overcome, and married coquettes
and beaux are sadly common, insur
ing unhappiness and homes that be
lio the name. If people of this de
scription could only be paired off
together there would be some poetic
justice in their tormenting each
other and meting out a mutual and
well-deserved punishment. Butlikes
seldom attract each other, and more
often we see a woman giving in re
turn for the great, whole-souled love
of some man only a fraction of what
sho is pleased to call a heart. She
gives all she has to give, perhaps,
but she should have more. The
trouble is that she has frittered away
her affection, giving a little to this
one, a bit to that, and a portion to
another, till she really has no heart
left, and loses, in consequence, what
should have been her life's happi
ness. Sometimes sho has enough
stnsj and nobility of mind left to
appreciate what is given her and her
own poverty of response. And then
she must quote sadly to herself:
All the kissei tint I bat e given
I grudzc frcm niy soul to-day,
And ot all I Lave crer taken
I would rlpc the thought awiy.
How I wish my lip3 had been hermits,
Held apart from kith and kin.
That fresh from God's holy sen ice
To love's they might enter in.
"When the millennium comes, all
this will be changed. Boys and girl3
will then be brought up together in
a sensible fashion, so wisely taught
and guided by their elders that they
will look upon each other as play
mates, comrades, friends, until the
proper time for serious love-making
arrives, while " flirtation" will have
become an unknown custom of the
dark ages, the very word marked
with the dagger which marks obso
lete words in the dictionary of the
times. This will be, we fear, like the
jubilee of the darkies, " long, lone,
long on de way ;" but wo can all do
something to help its coming. For
it is the elders who are often to blame
for much of the nonsense and sin of
the children. So much that is injudi
cious or absolutely wrong is said to
them or before them, putting ideas
into their heads that should not be
for a dozen years, perhaps. A liltlo
incident, mere trifle, recently ob
served, will illustrate this point.
A bright little five-year-old boy was
playing on a hotel piazza not long
since with a winsome wee lassie a
little younger than himself. It was
a pretty sight, for they were as mis
chievous and innocently unconscious
as two young kittens. But presently
one who had been watching them
called eut: "Elsie is your little
sweetheart, isn't she, Charlie?"
The poor little fellow looked first
mystified then shy and embarrassed,
as others near by laughed at his per
plexity. "Tell the lady that Elsie is your
dear little playmate," said a wise
woman who had heard it all, and
shuddered as she heard it.
"Elsie's my dear little playmate,"
lisped Charlie, and ran off to play
again, while the first speaker had
the grace to look slightly ashamed
of herself, for the reply which was
put into Charlie's mouth was given
with an emphasis that gave no
doubt of its meaning.
Another woman met at a certain
large boarding-house bust season,
used to ask her son, a 3oung man of
eighteen or nineteen, at a public din
ner table, about his "mashes."
Such an expression of angerand dis-
?;ust would come into his eyes that a
ooker-on could not but tremble to
see.
This was perhaps an exceptional
case, but the first is not, and we be
lieve the "flirtation" evil might
speedily be reduced to a minimum if
j'oung people were but carefully and
judiciously trained on that point.
Growing1 Gold Klines.
The famous Comstock lode is still
growing; that is, the causes which
produced the great vein are yet in
operation, though with diminished
activity. The lode was probably
millions of vears in reaching the con
dition which it had attained when it
was first discovered, and in millions
more, if left undisturbed, all the
great chambers that have been
robbed of their ore might again be
filled. In all the softer ground where
a drift is run, a movement is seen to
ward the closing of it. This move
ment is called by the miners the
" swelling " of the ground. In many
places it amounts to more than a
mere swelling amounts to a degree
of motion that is almost startling in
its energy. Belts of a peculiar kind
of clay that have been cut by drifts
have been known to rise from the
floor until more than thirty feet have
been cut away.

Prince of Wales.
In alluding to a few incidents in
the lives of the Princes of "Wales it
may be interesting to note respecting
the birth of the first one that " when
the messenger arrived at Rhudlan
Castle, where King Edward I. was
residing, on political business, and
announced to him that his Queen
had given birth to a boy on the pre
ceding day, the 25th of April, 1284,
at Carnarvon, Edward, in his joy,
made a knight of the messenger,
stuffed his pouches with gold pieces,
and gave him house and lands to
enable him to support his new dig
nity becomingly!" Then follows
the story, which every school-boy
and girl knows, of the baby's pre
sentation to the Welsh chieftains,
who vowed allegiance to him and
accepted him as their Prince. Some
historians assert this to have been
the occasion upon which Edward was
created Prince of "Wales. On the
other hand it is stated that "the
original letters patent by which lie
was raised to the dignity of Prince
of Wales" bears the date 1301. Be
that as it may, Speed says: "His
creation so contented the Welsh, be
cause of his birth-place, they held
him as one of theirs, that when all
friends afterward forsook him, they
always stuck most loyally unto him,
expressing wonderful love and affec
tion, and bewailing his heavj- fortunes
in woeful songs, which neither the
dread of his enemies nor length of
time could ever make them to for
get." "Heavy fortunes," indeed!
for the first English Prince of Wales
was the first of our kings to be de
posed and murdered. Although Ed
ward III. is generally considered as
the second prince of the illustrious
line, he was never created such, but
he invested his son Edward, the
Black Prince, with the principality
in 1343; after whom came Richard
of Bordeaux, making the third of
the House of Plantagenet. Two Lan
castrians followed, viz.: Henry of
Monmouth and his grandson, "Ed
ward of Westminster (Henry VI.
being but a few months old at the
death of his father, never received
the title). Then two Yorkists, Ed

of Middleham, after whom two of

LIVER REGULATOR
Fcr all Diseases of the
Li?er, Kidneys, Stomacn and Spleen.
This purely vegetable pre
paration, cow so celebrated as a
Family Medicine, originated ia
the South in 182S. It aea
gently oa the Bowels and
Kidneys and corrects the
action of the Liver, and is, there
fore, the best preparatory
medicine, whatever the sick
ness may prove to be. In aH
common diseases it will, un
assisted by any other medi
cine, effect a speedy cure.
The Regulator is safe to administer in any
condition of the system, and under no circum
stances can it do harm. It will Invigorate
like a glass of wine, but i no intoxicating bever
age to lead to intemperance; will promote di
gestion, dissipatu headache, and gener
aUy tone up tlio system. The dose is small,
not unpleasant, and its virtues undoubted.
Xo loss of time, no inter
ruption or stoppage of
business while talcing the
Regulator.
Children complaining of
Colic, Headache, or sick
Stomach, a teaspoonful or
more will give relief.
If taken occasionally by pa
tients exposed to MALARIA,
will expel the poison and protect
them from attack.

I have been practicing medicine for twenty years,
and have never been able to put up a vegetable
compound that would, hke Simmons Liver Regu

action, and at the same time aid (instead of weak,
