Ton (that in- dividual) call for improvement on every aide. You've been saving all these years: \I don't ear* much what becomes of me, so that the children have % good send-off in the world.\ •Thai's all wrong. You've worked hard all these years, nursing those boys and girls, leading them, clothiug them, worrying over them. You've been for them mother, nursery gover> ness, housekeeper and upper servant, and that's about all You've kept yourself hived in your house, and much out of the world and out of society. You haven't kept up with the world. You neglect your dreas and look like a dowdy. When you do dress, you put on too much. When you don't dress, you put on too little.\ Your education in certain respects has not gone on with that of the chil- dren. Education in this world or any other never stops. The education you get from varied association with many people is as good if not better than that you get out of books. People are books. You have tolled yourself at home into a servant. Yourchildren call you ••mother\ but regard you as their serv- ant. You've educated them so to do and they can't help it. Thev associate you only with the care of the house, the care of the table, the washing and mending, and the little else. You can't think or talk of much else. Your children see the difference be- tween you and other ladies. When you go in company you're always put- ting your foot in it somewhere or turn- ing up some corner of the family cur- tain that had better have been left turned down. For this reason your children are both ashamed and afraid of you. They can't help it. You say your children should have more gratitude. You can't expect gratitude from children till they have children of their own. Bv that time it's too late for their gratitude to be of much service to you. Children take all their parents give them—monev, clothes, food and shelter —as a matter of course. They think these things come as a matter of course until they're obliged to go to work and earn them. You've toiled yourself into a prema- turely old woman. You complain that your girls *Tttn over you.\ They wouldn't run over you if you'd culti- vated all your talents. Dignity is a talent, and you haven't cultivated that. Command of temper i- a talent, and you haven't cultivated that. Grace of bearing, address, tact, well-chosen language—all ^these are talents, and you've given them all the go-by. You've committed that pernicious sin of saving nothing for vourself and every thinir for your children. If say- ing that so that the children's light shone, you'd be willing to be a snuffy old candle, and now that you are a snuffy old candle, and your children treat you as one, you don't like it. **Ought we not to love our children better than ourselves?\ you r.sk. No. ••Love fhy neighbor as thyself\ Scripture. Your children ar.-* neighbors. Mark the pas*a^ thyself,\ not better than thyself. There is a certain amount of due from every one to themselves. If you don't love yourself you'll neg- lect yourself in some way. Love doesn't mean abu*e of self. It means proper care of one's self If you don't love your body you won't keep it properly cleansed or clothed; if you love your stomach you won't put any thing in it to hurt it: you won't put in it a bigger load than it can carry. If you love your mind you'll see that it's kept clear, and polished, and bright, and ready to receive the best ideas that come floating to it in the air. When you love any thing so much that you're willing to give yourself all away for its sake, you're helping to make a ruin of self and making your- self less A»4 4es* aMe TO artract love, regard, esteem and respect from others.

The medical officers retire from the service at forty-five years of age, and receive pensions for the remainder of their days. —The government of Italy is about to undertake excavations on the site of the ancient city Sybaris, so famous for its luxury and splendor. Sybaris was buried under the mud brought down by an inundation nearly twenty- four hundred years ago, but it is be- lieved that the ruins will be found well preserved.— X. Y. Ledger. —The British tel egraph service, which I* part of the post-office, does not pay expenses since the rate was reduced to sixj>eno^ per message, or about 12 cents. The deficit for the past year was £225,000 on working expenses and £326, 000 for interest on the working capital—in all £560.000, or r2,750.000. —The grosshopper plague Is giving serious trouble in Algeria this year. The efforts made to destroy the eggs have proved useless. In one district 50,000 gallons have been collected and burned. This represents the destruc- tion of 7,250.000,000 insects. —Nature. —Well may the people of France stand aghast at the financial problem they are called upon to solve. On the 1st of January, 1880, the public debt of France amounted to $6,200,000,000, on the 1st of February, 1887. it reached $7,524,00a 000. Thus in seven years the debt has swelled to the tune of $1,324,000,000 — an increase of such fearful proportions as to justly create alarm for the solvency of France.— Public Opinion. —A ••jubilee\ river is the latest dis- covery in New Guinea, where an Aus- tralian expedition in the Victory has been making some valuable explora- tions. The Victory found two large streams—the \Douglas reached by Xtm so-calWd ••Aird river/* ^which is only one of the mouths of the vast Douglas, and a still wider further east which the expedition duly christened ••Jubilee,\ in honor of the Queen. Both rivers were explored for fully one hundred miles, and ftxe new tribes were found. — Springfield Times. —The total number of persons killed by wild animals and venomous snakes in the ten divisions of Bengal during the official year 1885-86 was the high- est in the last five years, and amount- ed to 11,823. As is usual, nine-tenths of these deaths were caused by snakes. But of 12,223 buffaloes, oxen, horses and ponies destroyed in this manner, only 311 were killed by snakes. These annual returns do not take account of sheep, goats, pigs and monkeys, the destruction of which is very large. The hyena is credited with the destruction of 773 head of cattle.— Boston Budget. • • m MOURNING JEWELRY. boys answer in concert. This got rid of several minutes.

A slender cij^le of gold held an oblong disk of wliTteNehameleff surface, on which was depicted the tomb, the weeping willow, and the visiting relative (m this case a widow), all neatly placed under glass. It was an old. old ring, belonging to a great-grandmother, who wore it for her first husband*s memory, although, as she survived two more, it may have done tender memorial services for all three.
