There’s many a trouble Would break like a bubble, And into the waters of Lethe depart, .Did we not reherse it, And tunderly nurse it, And give it a permanent place in the heart. Theres many a sorrow Would vanish to-morrow, Were we but willing to furnish the wings; So sadly intruding Aid quietly brooding, It batches out all sorts of horrible things. How welcome the seeming Of looks that are beaming, Whether one’s wealthy or whether one’s poor. Eyes bright as a beiry, Cheeks red as a cherry, The groan, the curse and the heartache can cure. Resolve to be merry, All worry to ferry, Across the famed waters that bid us forget, Aud no longer fearful, But be happy and cheerful, Wo feel life has much that's worth living for yet.

' race, on or before the 1st •unary 1884 wh Effects of Bangs on u Girl-. Bangs on a girl gives her an unruly look, like a cow with a board over her face. You take the gentlest cow in theVorld and put a board over turn her out in a pasture, and she gets the reputation of being inl and you would swear she would jump fences and raise merry hades, and you wouldn’t give so much for her by §10 only for beef. It is so with the girl. If she wears her hair on her forenead, or brushed^ back or even has frizzes, and has a good look, you will go your bottom dollar on her, and feel that she is good as gold, and that when she tells her young man that she loves him there is no discount on it, and no giggling back; but take the same girl, with her front hair banged, and when she looks at you, you feel just as though she would hook, and you can't trust her. She has a fence-jumping look that makes a young man feel as though he wouldn't feel safe unless she was tied hand and foot, so she couldn’t get out of the pasture. A girl with bangs may- try to be good anil true, but it’s awful hard work. When she looks at herself in the glass and sees the quarter of forehead, she says to herself; “I am dangerous; they want to look out for me.” She thinks she is all right, but she is constantly doing that which a girl who wears her hair brushed back would not think of doing. The bang girl may belong to the church, ana may try to put on a pious look while the hymn is being read. But she will look out from behind those bangs sidewise at some meek and lowly young Christian who is t-ving to get his mind fixed on the hymn, and it will get his mind fixed on iier, and it will break him all up, and he won’t know whether he is singing “A Charge to keep 1 Have” or “She’s a Daisy.” The bang girl may place her bangs down on the back of the pew ahead of her during the morning prayer, and try to be good, but her corset M ill be too tight, and as she hitches around to ease the pain one eye will rise like the morning sun over the back of tire her—face - ancT - ^,, v- • oan r ran cisco. The Sew Standard Explained, We clip from the Mew York World the following interesting facts about the new time and its effects: The whole continent is divided into five great belts. In the east ern most, covering New’ Brun swick, Nova Scotta and New Foundland, the 60th meridian west from Greenwich w’ill supply the standard; the next, which in cludes all the Atlantic States and the interior from Ohio to Ala bama, the 75th meridian; in the Mississippi basin and Texas the 90th meridian; in the Rocky Moun tain region the 105th meridian, and on the Pacific coast the 120th meridian. From belt to belt the difference in time is just an hour—as the earth, of course, in its daily revo lution t»f 360 degrees, presents to the sun an arc of its circumfer ence equal to 15 degrees. Consequently when it is noon in New York and every where in the Atlantic belt, it will be 11 o’clock it Cliicagt),. 10-at-Denver and 9 at '"P of said war ,} If:| ers of lUtc.t, ■ w '* "“V the said R. * ,a ®"id not be dismissed from pew, and that eye will catch the receive e y e 0 f a young mail tWO seats to the right, who is trying to cover his face with one hand, while he tries to keep the flies oli' the po made of his hair with the other, and his interest in the prayer is knocked into a cocked hat* The banging of a girl's hair changes the whole nature of the little and .- dismission.

You take a picture of “Evangeline” and bang her hair, and she would look as though she would “run at" people. How would Mrs.. Van Cott, the alleged female preacher, look with her hair banged ? It is just the same with; boys. You take a nice pious Sunday school boy. who cam repeat 300 veises of the New Testament and cut his.hair with a clipper and he looks like Tug Wilson. time would be for New York 12:03 foi Chicago 11:10, for Denver 10 and for San Francisco 8:30. Thus the difference from true time at the great centre of each belt is quite unimportant. A fter this change Itas been made a watch right anywhere will be right everywhere in the same belt. One can travel from Bangor to Buffalo, from Albany to Augusta without having occasion to alter his watch. And when one passes the boundary into a new belt he will simply make a change of six ty minutes. A single accurate observation will supply standard time for the whole continent. The reason why the noon of the 75th meridian was chosen instead of the noon of New York as the initial standard lor this country was because the difference of time between New York and England was precisely live hours. It also prevented any possible local jeal ousy on the part of Boston or Philadelphia. The only serious refusals to accept the new stand ard are by the Illinois Central and Attorney-General Brewster. The objection of the former is that its suburban business will be thrown into confusion. The latter finds a legal difficulty in the way of its adoption by the departments. Congress has fixed the hours of labor for Government employes according to Washington local time. The heads of departments the Attorney-General holds can not change this without usurping the functions of Congress. If all the other railways in the country adopt the new standard the Illinois Central cannot long stand out. And ,if it simply requires the action of Congress for the adopt ion ot the new system in the Dis trict of Columbia, this will no doubt be taken as soon as that body assembles. When this new standard has once been generally adopted and the immense advantages of it be gin to be realized, we shall won der, as we always do when great but simple improvements are made, why in the name of com mon sense it was not brought about before. “The Silent Friend**’ Silvanuah Times. An organization known as the “Silent Friends,” composed of the best citizens, ladies and gentle men, has been formed in Cincin nati for the purposes of inducing men, both young and old, who tre in the habit of spending their evenings at disreputable or harm ful places, to seek the company of respectable people and thus arrest their progress in the downward path to degradation and ruin. The object of the association is a noble one and its members are said to be zealous in the cause. Persuasion and kindness will be the means employed. The society is non-partisan and without creed,, and is devoted solely to appealing to the better nature of men, and thus redeem them from vicious associations. It is likely that similar organiza tions will be effected in other cities until a vast amount of good is done in reclaiming the unfor tunate -oung men of the land who exposed-o the temptations of city life, too oj^en fall through no de li Defac&-p n TT)osgsof their own. The need’oAsujh a iu Savannah, is manifested. Give the Dear Girin Seme Work. Scarcely a day passes, of late, but brings with it an account of the romantic flight from her father’s roof of some near, tender girl. There is a remedy for this. It’s work. Not real hard, manual labor, but steady, profitable employment. Idleness is the pro genitor of vice. No human being is capable of withstanding the evils incident to weeks, months and years of idleness. Labor of some sort i6 necessary to restrain the wild fancies of the youthful mind. It is no wonder that girls get tired of a home that furnishes nothing to do but to continually bang away on an old piano, and sing songs which put the house cats to flight and depreciate the value of adjacent real estate. Music is good in its place, but too much of it is monotonous. A lit tle leisure is also necessary to the enjoyment of life, but all leisure and no labor is ruinous. The girls must have something to do—something, to think about that is ennobling. If they work a little their minds and bodies will be more vigorous. They w’ill feel MiscellaneoHS Advertisements.

Direct Foreign Importers of i though existence means more a common remark of young men who come to the city, that there is no resort for them where they can pass'their evenings as they would like, and consequently they are driven to places where they acquire habits that grow upon them until they are fast in the chains of vice. The philan thropic can, if they ponder the subject, devise a means to remedy of the dissipation and dissolute ness that prevails. We are not arguing from a tem perance standpoint, but merely would urge the necessity of pro viding resorts, where young men could enjoy pleasure that would not only divert, but elevate them.

Last year the southern states paid $15,000,000 for education. A contemporary, who has evi dently had experience- whereon he writes, devotes these few lines to “newspaper puffs:” A doctor will sit down ami write a pre - scripUon; time five seconds, paper and ink. one-foarth of a ceut ,*■ and the patient pays one, two, three, live or ten dollar, as the case may be. A lawyer writes tea or twenty words of advice, and gets ten or twenty dollars from his client An editor writes a half column puff for a man, pays from A wise Slit Exchange. “One of the evils of this coun try is the loose, slipshod manner in which business is done, and the way men will recklessly run into debt with no probability of paying up. It ought to be a fix ed aud invariable rule to present monthly or quarterly statements of accounts. Those who run ac counts at the drygoods, grocery or drugstores, for a great length of time without settlement are al most certain to find their accouuls have grown faster than they ex pected. If accounts were presen ted monthly then people could see liow they stand, and in many instances, would put a check upon their extravagance. Good busi ness men are generally prompt in making collections, and this en ables them to be prompt pay. We sometimes hear a man spoken of as a good man to deal with be cause he never presents bills. This is all wrong. All men ought to present bills and do so prompt-' ly and systematically. Business men in the country can have much influence in educating the people in these things. Settle ments ought to be had even if payments cannot be made. The man who is dilatory in makingcol- lections will be slow in paying, his debts. If all were iu the habit of paying down for everything or settling up on short time, no one would have any less money—all would know axactly where they stand, all would be careful and economical. The result of all this would be increased prosperi ty, and we should hear of less tide of apparel and every pleas ure they have. A little work will make them cast aside the “fiction of flimsy romance” and relish books of a substantial character- It will teach that “ii. r e is real.” How many girls are there in the South to day who do noth ing—absolutely nothing—but at tend to their toilets, paints, pow ders, pianos and pumpkin-head ed gallants? They are found in nearly every household where the parents have been able to accum ulate the sufficiency of this world’s goods to allow’ it, and in many where they have not. So long as this is the case, the display of all sorts of romantic freaks by the dear creatures may be expected. If labor and leisure be not mixed, idleness and vice, it may be de pended upon, will form close com- paniodshiD. Hundreds of unhap py marriages are the logical re sult of female idleness. As girls they do nothing but “primp,” as wives they don’t know how to do anything else. The truth is good wife material is getting veri- scarce. The stout, rosy-cheeked, well formed, practical women of the past are degenerating into a sort of helpless combination of bangs, paints, bustles, corsets, etc. There must be a reform, anu we repeat that the dear girls must have something to do. pi.
