One lover is like music sweet , That steals my \Ueart avray ; And one is Ilka th£ Irniniiet-blasr . . Which calls me to the fray. One is of gentle , courteous round , To low and high degree; And one is stern and harsh of mood, And jnelteth but to me. One is so strangely lovable , That but to touch his hand Do -women Kneel—before the one Do men uncovered stand. And if I this one do not wed , He never wife will seek : And if that one I do not wed , He Horroweth a trees. 3Iy lovers twain—ray lovers tivstn , Ye should have let me be : I love the one wi»h all my heart— The other loveth me. • wi s «<> ¦ O -— ' THE JSWEI J CASS ; — on— ¦ ¦ ¦ • ¦ ¦ ¦ EDITH PESTOK'S LESSON. So you won 't g ive me the money, Alfre d . \ said the young -wife , in a tone of irritation . \I cannot , Edith. \ \It is onl y two hundred dollars , \ said \Edith , with a percep tible pout. \I gave yon a hundre d dollars last week. Eemember , Edith , money does not grow on every bush. \ \You ought to have told me that before we were married , \ she said , bitterl y. The youn g man flushed crimson. \Have I failed to redeem any promises I made then ?\ he aslred. \I did not suppose you would be mean . \ \I do not think I have been. But busi- ness has been depressed of late. There is some fear of a financial crisis , and I have to be careful. \ \Oh , I don ' t understand anythin g ab out busiiu- .ss , \ she said , pettishl y. \I fear yon take no interest in mine , \ he sai d , in a pained tone. \Why should I ?\ she asked. ' The scene of this conversation was a hand- somel y furnished parlor in a fashionable boarding-house. The parties were Alfred j?ent<m and his youn g 'wife , Edith , but sis mouths married. She leaned back in a lux- urious chair , her feet supported by a fan- teuil. He stood before her , with one hand resting on the arm of a sofa. - ; \Wh y should you ?\ he replied , coldly . ! \Well , perhaps I am unreasonable. But | you shall not have cavjse . to comp lain. I will send up a clerk at once with the money you require . \ He turned away, and she was left alone. \Of course he has p lent y of money, \ she | th oug ht. \He onl y -srisb.es io annoy me. \ | Edith was the daug hter of a wealth y mer- j chan t , ancj . had.been broug ht up in luxury. : She had married a young business man , | whose income was sufficient to support her j in comfort and even in luxury, but her ex- | travnganee seemed almost unliniitec]. She j crave d everything shi- - saw , and appeare d to i think there was no end to her husband' s re- sources . Meantime , business became de- pressed , xaoney became ti g ht , jvnd her hus- band found it dimcult to obtain the neces- ) sarv funds to keen his head above water. ! And still his wife was as unreasonable and extravagant as ever. This morning, for the firs t time , he ventured tq remonstrate with i her , with what result has been seen. This 1 morning she asked for two hundred dollars • to purchase a bracelet which she had seen j at Tiffany ' s , and which had struck her fan - cy. True , she had several others , but she j srt her heart upon possessing this. I An liour later a messenger arrived from ; her husband with the money she desired. She took it with a triump hant smile. ''I though t lie would y ipld , \ she said to herself. \Sow for the bracel et. \ Sno jnavle a ctvrefiil toilet , and -sv^tlk rtut. j On Broadway she met a school friend , j like herself a young married woman. j \O h , A gnes , \ she said , \I am so g l a d we have met. I want you to go to Tiffany ' s with me, I saw the most beautiful brace- l ets theiv yesterday, and I am going round to buy them this morning. \ \What is the price ?\ : ¦ \Two hundred dollars . \ j \Two hundred dollars ! Have you no i otl ier braoidcis ?\ \Y«*s , p lenty, but I want these. \ \Your husband is indul gent. \ \Ob , he scolded about giving the money , but I knew 1 should get it. \ \Edith , *' said her friend, seriously, \l am a fraid you h ave been doing very wrong. \ . \Yt iu always used to scold me , \ sai d Ed i th , pouting. \Listen to me for a moment. Aro you ; awaro tliat business is very dnll ?** J \I don ' t interc-s i myself in business , \ , ' said Edith. j \Do you know that business men just j now are having r. difficult time ?\ • \Oh . I suppose business is disagreeable , ; but f have nothing to do with it. \ I \You can make it more disagreeable , ami i I am afraid vou do. It votir htisbaud com- » plained oi your dvmaiw for money , he is I ri g ht. I heard my husband say yesterday, j that it was doubtful if he would not be com- 1 pelied to fail. Yet , at this time , when he is straining every nerve to keep his head above water , you buy bracelets at Tiffany s , and the speaker ' s lip curled with contemp t. \Is this true that you have told me , Ag- nes ?\ asked the young wife , sobered. \You may rel y upon it. \ . \Then I hav e indeed.been wrong, \ she said , lies consohmoG suddenly awakened. \What shall I do ?\ she continued , address- ing her friend. \Shall I tell you what I would do ?\ \I wish you would. \ \I would not buy the bracelets , but re- turn the money to your husband , who will probably have need of it. \I will do it, \ said Edith , decidedl y.. \That is ri g ht , \ said her friend , approv- ing l y. \I am afraid Alfred will think mo very selfish , \ murmure d the young wife , in ac- cents of self-reproach . » \Let him see reason in the future to think otherwise , Edith . \ \He shall. \ . She parted with her friend , and slowly went back to her house , th inking busil y as she went. She was not natural l y bad , only weak , but sometimes weakness is as mis- chievous as wickedness. When Edith reached home she went to her jewel-case. It was filled with jewels of great value. Five thousand dollars would be less than their ori g inal cost. \Wh y, \ she thoug ht , \ should I keep theJ- e when my husband needs the money ? If I only had their value. \ She thoug ht suddenly of an old friend of her father , and acting under a sudden im- pulse , she seized the case of jewels , and de- scending the stairs again , took a carriage to the house of this friend. - She found him at home , though it was in the hours of business , for he had some years since retired on a large fortune. \I am g lad to see you , my dear , \ he sai d with some surprise. \You hav e done me an unexpected honor. \ \Then do me an unexpected favor , Mr . Estmere. \ she said, smiling. \Tell me what it is , Edith. \ \Sly husband is in want of money. It is something about his business , which I don 't understan d , but I have been thinking, if I could get part of the value of these jewels , J. mig ht help him. \ And elie displayed the jewel-case, \Did your husband send you , Edith ?\ asked Mr. Estmere . ' , No , indeed ; he knows nothing about it. But I have acted badl y to him , and I want to make up for it. \ \Tell me about it , \ lie said , kindl y. She poured forth her story eagerl y, and he listened attentivel y. When she had finished , he said: \lou are doing righ t now , Edith. Have you any idea of the value of those jewels?\ \I know that they cost ov er five thousand dollars , but if you could lend mo two or three thousand on them— \ \You shal l have the five , Edith, and re- deem them when you will. \ \How kind you are , Mr. - Estmere !\ \Stay a moment. I w ill write you a cheque for the amount , and yo u c a n c a rry it to your husband at once. \ -Meanwhile , her husban d had passed an anxious morning at his oouuting-houso. Ten thousand dollars were to be be paid before three o ' clock , and he had taxed his utmost resources to prepare for it , but the hour was approaching 1 , and two thousand dollars yet worn Inciting. In his embarrassment he could not hel p reflecting with severit y qn the unreasonable extravagance of Edith. \I had hoped she would be a hel pmeet , \ he thoug ht , with . a si g h , \but instead of \that , she increases my difficulties. When my paper is dishonored, and J fim a ruined man she may awaken to a consciousness of her folly. \ But even this was not a p leasant thoug ht. \If I could only raise the other two thous- and dollars , I could hold on for a month to com e , and I think then the crisis would be over. But I know not where to turn for it. \ It was at this moment that Edith , breath- less with haste , entered the counting-room. \Edith !\ he exclaimed , iu surprise , ad- ding bitterl y, \have you aoma for more money ?\ \I have broug h t y ou some , \ she said , and displayed the cheque. \J* ive. thousand dollars ! I am saved !\ he exclaimed , joy full y. \But where did- you get this r \ and lie gazed afc her in unuimg led surprise. Then she told him all , ackno wledg ing her past selfishness and how it Lad been reveal- ed to her , and added: '\In future . Alfred , I will try to help you , and not iujure row b y my extravagance. \ \Then we shall indeed be happy, \ he said , kissing her tenderly. \Will thia money help you ?\ she asked . ' ¦ It will save me from ruin , \ he said. So aided , Alfred Penton maintained his credit , aud his house regained its standing^. In time the jewels were red«reiut?d , but Edith valued them , iu f uture mainly on account of their having b>;en in- strumental in rescuing her husband fro m ruiu. It names mean anything, the recent mar- riage of Mr. Gri ppen and Mi-a Clinch gives promise of an occasional livel y matrimonial set-to.

The poorest dwelling, tho most meagre fare , shared with peop le whoso thoug hts are one ' s own , who catches one ' s meaning at once and enj oys the same things , would be better than all the luxuries the worl d could g ive , shared by thoso who are de- li g hted by what bores us , aud when we are deli g hted are unutterabl y bored. They may be ever so good—better than one ' s sel f even ; but that don 't mend the matter. It is a thing impossible to hel p iu any way. What can yon do if you like [music and that other hates it? If a gay assemblage and innocent amusement ' pleases one , and the solitude of a 1 ; hermitage another ? II this sees the ludicrous side of every ques- tion , and that takes every thing in solemn seriousness ? If when one makes a joke , the other asks gravely—do you think that? Yet doleful are the hours the two must pass together , and miserable aro their Jives if they are bound by^ ties ^'that' cannot bo broken. -*«o©-e <5 *.^siK»~ The Japanese women are usually small and dumpy , but are often very- beautiful , with small hands and feet , and are exceed- ing l y neat in dress and coiffuro. Their hair is not , as is generall y supposed , a true black , but is n very dark brown ; in some instances is a pronounced red , Its black- ness , aud , unfortunatel y, coarseness also , is promoted b y the custom, of shaving the heads of children from their very birth . It is made to appear very black and glossy by the use.of unguents and bandoline made from a mucilag inous plant. Like the oth er sex (and this custom is universal among peop le of every age in Japan), they bathe dail y in hot water , a public bath costing onl y half a cent. - . Since 186S tho Govern- ment has prohibited the promiscuous bath- ing of both sexes , formerl y common. The women above ' twenty years oltl .Tfroin time immemorial , have blackened their teeth with a mixture of sails and powdered iron ; but the Empress does not , and many ladies are now abandoning thc^fashion . Tho for- mer custom of married women shaving off their eyebrows is also falling into disuse. The peculiar style of coiffure at once distin- guishes a , ' iap ivueso maiden , wife , widow , or prostitute. All women are carefull y educat- ed in household duties ; but the ' . lower ! classes acquire very little book-learning, vhong h neni-l y all worneii can read and write. The young- ladles of the hi g her classes devote much time to fancy work , their bri ght colored robes being embroider- ed with gay silks and gold. They are care- fully taug ht from various books devoted to the duties of a wife , mother and housekeep- er. The three principal duties , as set forth in a large volume entitled , \Yv Oman ' s Great Study, \ ar» .: 1. Obedience to parents when a child. 2. Obedience . to her husband when a wife. 3. pbedienco to her eldest son when a widow. Hal f their education is in book s of eti quette. There is no distinction made between politeness and moral s . Lying, cheating, deceiving, slandering and like vices are simply \ nob polite , \ aud so are not permissible. -Girls thus \ scrupulously brough t up ' mako the best of women and of wives. The now constantly enlarg ing in- tercouse between Japan and the 'Western povrprs lends to the hope that some of the refinements of Japanese civilization will eventually reach other countries. — i O i <fri gj .

I<rom the Na tion. — The \ publicatio n of General Scheuck' s testimou y in the Emma Mine suit and his contract with Park shows that the character of the transaction has nofc boon at all m isrepresented. The facts are simp l y these: He was one clay introduced. to I^nz'k , of wliom ho knew nofchmpf before. Park immediatel y begged of him to become a stockholder and director of the Emma Mine , about which he knew even less than he did about Park, f^ chenck had himself no money to invest. Park immediatel y pro- duced his own purs e and lent Mr . Schenck the sum of $50 , 000 (or lent him stock which could have been sold for more than that sum). Even this was not enoug h , for Park added a guarantee of dividends at 18 per cent., and , to make all secure , an engage- ment to take the stock off Schenck' s hands at par , provided that a tender of the par value of the stock should , whetheraccepted or not , release Park from his agreement as to dividen ds. Schenck now say s that he lias lost, a great deal of money b y the opera- tion , and still has the .stock on his hand.% But this fact makes no difference. He had a contract with Park which would have made him , had he so chosen , absolutel y safe . Pte was enti tled to the 18 per cent . Without any risk to his px-operfcy whatever , for he put no property whatever into the concern , aud by taking the par value of the stock when Park actual l y offere d ifc he would Iia-ve merely made a nice littl e sum of money without any risk. His ease is , indeed , n solitary instance of a mining in- vestment which was so arranged as to have no dependence whatever on the character or product of the mine. Now , people like Parle do not make such bargains for noth - ing. He did not lend General Schenck §50 , 000 , and at the sam e time agree that he should get 18 per cent, on the money, with- out an equivalent which , in his op inion , was worth what lie gave. The equivalent was the nanio of the Minister , and any other explanation is not impossible , but shows the most astonishing impudence or ignor- ance in any one who advances it. <l II I m M ml T T¥inwi,<. \ ¦ ' \ » ¦¦ * ¦ ¦ L-I-I » lTn^T^M7%Mf ffP*^l TfP^'l^J^BgiTffl*fpp>Ettnfl^jf l &c3ics*n.I Sclionok ami Uie J^amnzi ITCmc. - O » -». »^>i • Modes nSSaintiitUm » In the United States , one friend meeting auother asks , \How do you do ?\ and then passes on ins ' anicr to \ some other topic , being careful not to pause a moment for an answer to his in quiry as to his friend' s health. A pump-handle shake of the hand generally precedes the inquiry. In Eng lan d , the usual mode of greeting is a heart y shake of the Land , w ith a \Good morning, sir ; how do you do ?\ The usual salutation at Cairo is , ' \How do you sweat?\ a dry, hot skin being a sure indication of a destructive ephemeral fever. Greenlanders h ave none , and laugh at the idea of one person being superior to an- other. Islanders near the Phili ppines take^ a person ' s hand or foot and i-ub it over their faces. Lap landers app l y their noses against the person they salute very strongl y. In the Straits of Sounda they raise the left foot of the person addressed , pass it gently over the righ t leg, and theuce to tho face. The inhabitants of the Phili ppines bend very low , p lacing their hands on their cheeks , and raise one foot in the air , with knee bent. The Dutch , who aro considered polite , have a morning salutation , common among all classes , \Smfiakel y keeten , \ \May you eat a hearty dinner. \ \Hoe waart nwe ? \ \Haw do you sail ? \ adopted , no doubt , in the earlier periods of (he Eepublic , wheu they were all navi gators apd fishermen/ ' Some author has observed in contrasting the haug hty Spaniard with the frivolous Frenchman , that the proud , steady gait and inflexible solemnity of the former were ex- pressed in Iiis mode of salutation , \Cotnio esfca ustcd ?\ \How do you stand ?\ While the \Comment vous portez-vous ?\ \How do you carry yourself ?\ was equally ex- pressive of the gay motion aud incessant action of tho latter. In some parts of Africa a young woman , an intended bride , brings a little water in a calabash , aud , kneeling down before her lover , desires him to wash his hands. When he has done this the g irl , with a tearj of joy sparkling in her ey»> , drinks the water. This is considered the greatest proof she can , g ive him of her fidelity and attachment. The Japanese take off a sli pper , and the peoj de of Arraeun their sapdats , in the street , and their stockings iu the houGO , when they salute. The Negro kings on the coast of Africa salute each other b y snapp ing the middle linger three times. The inhabitants of Carmine , wheu they show particular attachment , open a vein , and present their blood to the friepd aa a beverage.
