Tn former days single women, when they bad reached a certain age-thirty years, -wo believe—shared with thew married sisters the distinction of being called Mrs. Thus we read of Mrs. Elizabeth Carter and Mrs. Hannah More, neither of whom had a husband. Latterly, Mrs. and Miss have lost all relation to age, and are used to express respectively tho married and spinster states. This does not please some of the advocates of women’s rights. Mrs. Elizabeth A. Kingsbury, of Portageville, N. Y., writing in the Woman’/) Journal, urges a return to the old custom. She argues that as Master William or Charles grows to the distinction of Mr., so increasing years and dignity should en title their female relatives to a corres ponding change. “It is annoying to be introduced,” she says, “to Mrs. Brown, a silly, superficial creature, yet in her teens, and tho next moment to bo pre sented to Miss Williams, who at a glance we perceive to be an intellectual, noble, broad sonled woman of thirty-five or forty, worth more than a dozen lilt o Mrs. Brown.” She denounces the existing usage as degrading, and in reply to tho question of male objectors, “How shall we know that a woman is married?” says: “Inquire, if you wish to ascertain, as we have to do respecting you." This ia very well ae far as it goes, but there remains the fact that most women, es pecially unmarried ones, are sensitive regarding advancing years. We fear that many of tho latter, if compelled when thirty to take the appellation of Mrs., would never confess to having reached that age. Mrs. Kingsbury does not seo things in this light, and solemnly warns all girls to keep out of matrimony until they are twenty-five at least. If ardent lovers wish to hasten their nuptials, they must be silenced with “I am twenty-one, but I do not intend to murxy till I am twenty-five. The laws of my being would be disobeyed by so doing, and I shall not marry even then unless reason and judgment unite with affection in approving my choice.” We fear that Mrs. Kingsbury will not find many supporters, and that her young sisters will decline the “strength and independence” which she promises them in tho adoption of Mrs. as an ad vertisement that they are no longer chicken*. — Cincinnati Gazette. Reward for Lost Property. One P. lost a diamond pin and pub lished in a city paper the following no tice : “ Lost, $25 reward—A diamond pin. Hie finder will be paid the above reward by leaving the same at this office.” The pin wa* found by 0., who demanded the reward, which was re fused. P. then demanded the return of the pin, and, on being refused, brought action in replevin for recovery. Hold that the finder, according to the com mon law, becomes the proprietor in oaeo the true owner does not appear, and meantime his right as finder is a perfect right against all others. And he is en titled to recompense from the owner for his care and expense in its keeping and preservation; but his status as finder i only does not give him a lien. Yet, if such owner offers a reward to him who will restore the property, a lien thereon is thereby created to the extent of the reward so offered.—Wood vs. Piemen, , Supreme Court, Nebraska, Something In the Bed. Judge Pitnam has a habit of slipping his watch under his pillow when he goes to bed. Ono night, somehow, it slipped down, and as the judge was restless, it worked its way down toward'the foot of the bed. After a bit, wliile he was lying awake, his foot touched it; it felt very cold; he was surprised, scared, and jumping from the bed, he said: “By gracious, Maria, there’s a toad or something under th* covers; I touched it with my foot ” Mrs. Pitnam gave a loud scream, and was on file floor in an instant. “Now, don’t go to hollering and waken up the neighbors,” said tho Judge. “You get me a broom or something, and we’ll fix tho thing mighty quick.” Mrs. Pitnam got the broom and gave it to tho Judge with the remark that she felt os if snakes were creeping up and down her legs aud back. “Oh, nonsense, Maria! Now turn down the covers slowly while I hold the broom and bang it. Put a bucket of water alongside the bed so we can shove it in and drown it. ’’ Mrs. Pitnam fixed tho bucket and gently removed tho covers. The Judge held tho broom uplifted, and as tho black ribbon of the silver watch was re vealed, he cracked away at it throe or four times with the broom, then he pushed tho thing off into the bucket. Then they took the light to investigate tho matter. When the Judge saw what it was ho said: “I might have known—it is just like yon women to go screeching and fussing about nothing. It’s utterly ruined.” “It was you that made'the fuss, not me,” said Mrs. Pitman. “You needn’t try to put the blame ou me,” then tho Judge turned in and growled at Maria until ho fell asleep. Yery Gullible. Thirty years ago Mr. Win. Hall, of Now York, lent, a “friend” named White $30,000 worth of bonds and checks as a security in n speculation, with tho under standing that they were on no account to be converted into cash. The friend immediately converted them into cash and disappeared. Not long ago ho went to Hall’s house, and in spite of Hall’s anger placated him by representing that with tho $30,000 which he had appro priated to his own use ho had gone to California, had made a large fortune and had traveled across the continent for tho express purpose of refunding the money. Mr. Hall was charmed and entertained White royally nt his house. White pretended to be, sincerely sorry for the roguery of his younger days, and entertained his host' with graphic descriptions of California, and amazing yarns about the way in which he had made his princely fortune on the Pa cific slope. Hall believed every word ho snid, and agreed to lend him $6,000, on White’s turning over securities in “a sealed envelope.” Ho had already paid him $1,200, when Mrs. Hall, rising at 5 in tho morning, carried the envelope to the Chief of Polico. On opening it, the papers were found almost worthless, and White was arrested. How a man cap able of being gulled after this fashion was also capable of accumulating $30,- 000, or 30,000 cents, is a mystery that would puzzle even a phrenologist. Ono day about a year ago, a medium sized gentleman, with a sharp, intelli gent eye, was standing about 8 o’clock in the evening, on the side of the Bowery. A policeman came along. The gentleman asked tho officer what tho crowd was doing there, and the latter replied gruffly: “I don’t know. It’s none of your business, anyhow. Move on.” “I asked you a civil question,” said the other, quietly. “I don’t give a ,” retorted tho officer. “You move on.” “I won’t,” persisted the man firmly. “Well, I’ll take you in,” announced the cop, and he did. About a block from the station house the two met tho sergeant, who snlutoo tho arrested man politely, while the cop looked on iu astonishment. The ser geant asked what the trouble was. “He was disorderly and I arrested him,” returned the officer averting his face as he spoke. “You infernal fool!” exclaimed tho sergeant, “don’t you know who thut is ?” “No,” said the officer, faintly. “It’s Commissioner Sid Nichols.” The cop fainted dead away. The joke was so rich that, after giving the fellow a good scare, '-‘Sid” let up. But you can rely on it, he won’t commit the mistake of arresting a Polico Commis- Tjoner again.— New York Star. Some Definitions. One of Thackeray’s daughters has just published a little book about her friend, Miss Evans, in which she prints some delightful definitions made by that lady. Some of these are as follow: “A privileged person—One who is so much a savage when thwarted that civil ized persons avoid thwarting him.” “A liberal-minded man—One who dis dains to prefer right to wrong. ” “Radicals—Men who maintain tho supposed right of each of us to help ruin us all.” “Liberals—Men who flatter Radi cals. ’’ “Conservatives —Men who give way to Radicals.” “A domestic Woman—A woman like a domestic.” “Humor—Thinking in fun while we feel in earnest.” “A musical woman —One who has strength enough to make much noise, said obtuseness enough not to mind it.” In the course of a dozen or so years an editor learns to boa right good farmer -on paper. The Wife’s Management. To most wives, tho very thought of asking a husband for money for per sonal expenses is a delicate and dreaded task. Not that the wife of a man fears refusal, but to her it seems that he should seo for himself what she needs, not compel her to ask for what is right fully hers. Ths wife is head manager of the home; the man is presumably tho bread winner, the responsible head, but on her devolves the burden' of planning and managing the homo expendi tures. When a man marries, ho takes away, in a measure, the opportunities which a woman possessed before of providing for her own support. There are many men who wed with the avowed intention of taking a partner iu life who shall help them earn money, and who demand that a wife shall toil on, year after year, at cost of health and home com fort; no matter if both mo sacrificed, so that she earns money to help swell the general fund. We do not propose to give such husbands even a passing notice; but allude to those nieu who, when they enter into wedlock do so with the design of creating a homo, and di recting their best efforts toward tho maintenance of that home and tho edu cation of their children. Were such men as the latter to real ize how most women shrink from ask ing for money for the purchase of clothes and tho numberless trifles they love to collect, they would not force them to do it. It is a very easy matter for ii man to give to his wife a weekly or monthly sum from which she can provide herself aud little ones with what they require; aud ho should also depute to her the duty of making the purchases for all the departments of tho home. A certain sum allowed her (and it should bo according to his income) would place her in a position to acquire judgment, by calliug into exercise economy and skill iu making purchases. A wife who is thus treated will become systematic and prudent. She will soon learn that it is more judicious to buy in large quan tities. She will also learn that it is tho truest economy to procure the best. A new delight will enter into her daily life. All women have, in a greater or less degree, a taste for business; ami a possession of a certain share of the funds will awaken habits of forethought, ami common sense will dictate her outlays, besides she will know better what she, as the representative of her husband, can afford. She will no longer bo kept in ignorance of his affairs, and she v. ill determine for herself just how much money should be expended, with tho happiest results. If any husband doubts tho correctness of our views, let him consult his wife upon the subject, and tho answer will, perhaps surprise him. And if ho go still farther, and adopt the advice given, the report will surprise him also. Ho will be the gainer, both in true comfort, and increased respect of his wife, while •he will enjoy tho pleasant excitement of bargaining, and tho development of an executive ability, which might have remained dormant. Tho Ways of Plants. In a great many cases leaves are said to sleep; that is to say, at tho approach of night they change their position, aud sometimes fold themselves up, thus pre senting a smaller surface for radiation, and being in consequence less exposed to cold. Mr. Darwin bus proved experi mentally that leaves which were pre vented from moving suffered more from cold than those which woro allowed to assume their natural position. He has observed with reference to one plant, Mar anta arundinacea, the arrow-root, a West Indian species allied to Canna, that if the plant has had a severe shock it cannot get to sleep for tho next two or three nights. The sleep of flowers is also probably a case of the same kind, though, as I have elsewhere attempted to show, it has now, I believe, special reference to the visits of insects; those flowers which are ferti lized by bees, butterflies, and other day insects, sleep by night, if at all; wliile those which are dependent on moths rouse themselves toward evening, as al ready mentioned, and sleep by day. Those motions, indeed, have but an in direct reference to our present subject. On tho other hand, in the dandelion (Leontodon), tho flower-stalk is upright while tho flower is expanded, a period which lasts for three or four days; it then lowers itself and lies close to the ground for about twelve days, while the fruits are ripening, and then rises again when they are mature. Tn tho Cuelam> n the stalk curls itself up into a beautiful spiro after the flower has faded. The flower of the little JAnaria of our walls (A. cyrnbalaria) pushes out into the light and sunshine, but as soon as it is fertilized it turns round aud endeavors to find some holo or cranny in which it may remain safely ensconced until the seed is ripe. In some water-plants the flower ex pands at the surface, but after it is faded retreats again to the bottom. This is tho case for instance, with the water-lilies, some species of the Patamogeton ('L'rapa natans). In Valieneria, again, tho female flowers are borne on long stalks, which reach to the surface of the water, on which the flowers float. The male flowers on tho con trary, have short, straight stalks, from which, when mature, tho pollen detaches itself, rises to the surface, and, floating freely ou it, is wafted about, so that it comes in contact with the fe male flowers. After fertilization, how ever, the long stalk coilsup spirally, and thus carries tho ovary down to the bottom, where the seeds can ripen with great safety. — Sir John Lubbock, in the Popufar Science Monthly.

We learn that Ellis &Co , proprietors of Bailey Springs, are making prepara tions to entertain an unusually large number of visitors this summer. They are receiving communications from all over the sou th inquiring rates and making con tracts for board. This is only their due, for not only are they most successful hotel keepers ,but their place is in every way worthy of patronage. It is one of the coolest, shadiest, breeziest places in the South ; the locality ami surround ings are delightful; the buildings are roomy, airy, and conveniently arranged; the accommodations, fare and attention are first class, and Shoal Creek is the most romantic stream and the best fish ing water you ever saw.
