A SISTER’S INFLUENCE
OVER HER BROTHER.
“Gain your brother’s confi¬
dence, my dear girl, else you

“A Sister,s Influence Over
Her Brother,” in the August
Ladies Home Journal. ‘Force

THE OLD FASHIONED
GIRL.
She was a little girl until
she was fifteen years old, and
then she helped her mother
in her househould duties.
She had her hours to play,
and enjoyed herself to the ful¬
lest extent. She never said
to her mother, “I dont want
to,” for obedience was to her
a cherished virtue.— She
arose in tl;e morning when
called, and we do not sup¬
pose she had her hair done
in curling papers and crimp¬
ing-pins, or banged over her
forehead. She did not grow
into a young lady and talk
about her beau before she
was in her teens, and she did
not read dime novels, nor
was she fancying a hero in
every boy she met. The old
fashioned girl was modest in
demeanor, and never talked
slang or used by-woids.
She did not laugh at old peo¬
ple nor make fun of cripples.
She had respect for her el¬
ders and was not above list¬
ening to words of counsel
from those older than her¬
self. She did not know as
much as her mother, nor did
she think that her judge¬
ment was as good as that of
her grandmother.— She
did not go to parties by the
time she was ten years old
and stay till after midnight
dancing with chance young
men who happened to be
present, She went to bed in
season. and doubtless
.said her prayers, and
the sleep of innocence,
up in the morning, happy and
capable of giving happiness,
And now, if there is an old
fashioned girl in the world to
day, may Heaven bless and
keep her and raise up others
like her.

Good Advice to Girls.
The following taken from a wes¬
tern journal, contains a great deal
of good sense, and will be food
for profitable thought to those
who feel themselves addressed:
‘Girls, let me talk to ycu a
little while. Not to you, wild
girls, who do not care much
what you do; nor to you, very
proper girls who never laugh out
of the wrong side of your mouth
nor at the wrong time, nor ever
do anything you shouldn’t. But
the common, averagsgirls, whom
we meet at the railway station and
in the academy. In the farm
house, and in the village, and who
have ‘Allows’ and enjoy ‘going’
with them.

pend. Your careless words and
actions may inflame his passions
and presently some one falls and
you can but say that it is partly
your fault. No doubt it is very
pleasant to be supported in your
evening walk or ride by the arms
of y»ur dear Augustus, or to lean
your head to rest upon his con
venient shoulder, holding his hand
and give him a parting kiss, but,
as sure as you live to ten years old¬
er, you will be sorry that you did
it. In strength of your virtue, did
you eyer think that some weaker
sister may see or know of the act
and think if you do so, it cannot
be improper? The consequence
is that some body takes advantage
of her weakness, and she is lost.

selves for some of this evil I Do
