Do not uso profanity, vulgar terms Hlang phrases, words of double meaning, or language that will bring ablush to anvone. i)o not carry on conversation with another in company about matters which the general company knows nothing of. It is almost as impolite as to whisjior.

PRO VIDEI) WITH POCKETS. "Maria," said Mr. Jones, tho other ovonitig, "what earthly use does any woman havo for a mult?" "I'm suro I don't know," answered Mrs. Jonos, meekly: then sho added, sweetly, "I know'a good many who liave one." "Kh?" retorted Jonos "oh, yes! Well, :is they only admit tho tips of tho fingers, and any woman carrying one reHembles a trussed fowl, I cannot see why thev are not abolished. They are just ono of the silliest fashions of the sex. Then

look. at your hats this season a little wo man topped oil' with two or three great long ostrich feathers, looking, as Dickens wotikl tay.like the afternoon shadow of somebody olso. It's monstrous, ridiculous!" "Yes," replied Mrs. Jones, "it is rather absurd, now that you call my attention to it. Hut, you know, I wear a bonnet. There was something I wanted to ask you. Oh, I romeinbor now: how many pockets have you in that suit you have'on?"

Pockets," growled Jonos "I'm suro I never oountouthem. What do you want to know for? Half-a-dozen, maybe." "You havo fifteen," retorted Mrs. Jones, triumphantly "yes, I have counted them!"

Vooh! NonsonHo! Fifteen pockets! You must think I'm an idiot. How 'could 1 use half that numbor?" "Count them," said Mrs. Jones. "I will, and soon show you how absurdly you state things. Woll, there aro—let'ine see—one, two, three, four. How's that? Two ordinary, two pistol and ono watch pocket in my trousers my vost has two, of course, and an inside ono for bills, and a watch pocket •certainly all vests have, and ono for tickots and my coat has two, as all coats havo, abreast pocket on each sido, and one for cards.

Ac. Do not, intrude professional or other topics that the company generally can (not take an interest in.

Do not talk very loud. A firm clear, distinct, yet mild, gentle and musical

TEMPER A1 HOME. John Hall.

1 have ixxped into quiet "parlors," where the carpet is clean and uot old, nnd the furniture jrallshed and bright into "rooms," where the chairs are deal and the lloor ear pot less into "kitchens," where the family live and the meals are cooked and eaten, and the boys and girls are

And I see, too, that in town or country, good sense and tiod's grace make life what no teachers or accomplishments, or means, or society, can make it—the opening stave of an evertasting psalm: the fair beginning of an endless existence, the goodly, modwst, well proportioned vestibule to a temple of God's building, that shall never decay, wax old. or vanish away.

SHE FORGOT

HOW HE SPOILED THE PLEASURE OF THE OLD LADY'S RIDE.

Free Press.

As the morning train over the Detroit, Lancing & Northern pulled up at Howell the other day a nice-looking old grandma got aboard with her satchel and settled down for a comfortable ride A Detroiter was of some assistance to her in getting seated, and presently asked: "Going on a visit?" "Yes, I'm going down to Plymouth to see my darter,"she answered. They've writ ana writ for me to come, but thought I should never get started." "Left the old man at home, I stypose "Yes, William thought he'd oetter stay and see to things at home." "Did you have plenty of time to get ready?" "Oh, yes. I've been getting ready

f°"Sureyoudidn't

forget anything?"

I know I didn't. I packed things up one at a time, and I know they are all here." "And you left everything all right around the house?" "Yes." "Your old man knows where to find the tea and sugar and salt, does he?" "Yes. I took him through the buttery the very last thing, ana pinted out where everything was." "Well, now,'' continued the man,

I'm certain that you overlooked something." 'Mercy on me! but what do you mean?" she grasped. "Did you bring along your spectacles?" "Yes—here they are." "Did you hang* up a clean towel for him?" "Yes." "And put the dish-cloth where he can find it?" "Yes." "And was everything all right about the cook-stove." "Marcy! marcv on me! Stop these kyars this blessed minit!" she exclaimed as she tried to reach her feet. "I just remember now that I put the knives and forks in the oven to dry out and shut the door on'em. He never'll think to look in there, and he'll build up a big fire and roast the handles off before I git to Plymouth."

ANSWER THIS.

Did you over know any person to be ill, without inaction of the stomach, liver or kidneys, or did you ever know ono who was well when either was obstructed or inactive and did you ever know or hear of any case of the kind that Hop Bitters would not cure? Ask your neighbor this same question.— Times. ____________

CHILDREN'S CHATTER.

A littlo girl who was much petted, said: "I like sitting on gentlemen's knees better than on ladies', don't you, ma?"

A little girl, seeing two love birds billing and cooing, was told that they were making love. "Why don't they marry?" she asked "then they would not make love any more."

Littlo girl, eight years old, addressing her mother: "Mamma, what does and-so-forth and-so-on mean?" Little girl of of five: "It means anybody can't think of any more words to say." "Little baby is very ill, Charley I am afraid ho will die." "Well, if lie does die, mamma, he won't go to the bad place." "Why, Charley, how can you know that?" "Oh, I know he can't, mamma he got no teeth to gnash." "Why did Moses write three commandments on one table of stone and seven on tho other?" asked a Galveston Sunday school teacher of a small little pupil. "Because he wanted to make an even ton of them. That's why."

In review of the past lessons at Sun day school on Sunday, the question was asked: "What did Goa do on the seventh day?" Answer "Ho rested." "What olse did he do?" Promptly a little eight year old boy "He read his newspaper."

Bridegroom (to his little sister-in-law at the breakfast)—"Well, Julie you've got a now brother, now—" Julie (enfent uerriblo)—Yes and ma said the other day to pa, she didn't think ho was much account, on'y it looked like Lottie's last chance! (Great clatter of knives, forks and spoons).

A SENSIBLE

liPARIENT

According to the old English novels and comedies, fathers were brutal old tyrants, who never did the decent thing except on the sly. If tho poor heroines of Fielding and Smollett could read of this St. Louis father how they would rejoice for tholr sisters of tills better day: "Dovaulove him?" asked her father.

Uoraldine laughed in spite of herself. "I have a strong impression that he would scarcely ask me to marry him unless he thought pretty well of me." "Of course—of course but do you love him?"

With my whole heart and soul." Well, if that's the case," said Colonel Spencer, throwing away his cigar, "all I've got to say Is that you are both confounded simpletons if you don't get married—there!'

CHICAGO BROKER'S HAPPY IX* VESTMENT.

Chicago Journal.

Lowis H. O'Conor, Esq., whose office Is located at 93 Washington street, this city, lately related the following in the hearing of one of our reporters as an evidence of special good fortune. I have been suffering said Mr. O'Conor, for a number of weeks with a very severe pain in my back, believed to oe from tho effect of a very severe cold contractwhile on the lakes. I had been precribed for by several of our physicians and used various remedies. Three days ago, I abandemed them all and bought a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, applied it at night before retiring and to-dav feel like a new man. I experienced almost instant relief and now feel no pain whatever.

HOW TO TREAT A COLD. A correspondent of the Germantown Telegraph savs: "When you get chilled all over and away into your bones, and begin to sniffle and almost struggle for your breath just begin In time ana your tribulation need not last very long. Get some powdered borax, and sniff the dry powder up your nostrils. Get your camphor bottle, smell it frequently, pour some on your handkerchief and wipe vour nose with it when needed. Your hose will not get sore and you will soon wonder whals become of your colcL Begin this treatment in the forenoon and keep on at intervals until von go to bed, and you will sleep aa well as yon ever did. *1 am just telling you of my experience."

Port Grape Wine,for Sickness Decidedly one of the nicest and most creditable of any article of wine we have ever seen, is the wine bearing the above name, made from the Portugal Port Grape, cultivated by Mr. Alfred Speer, Passaie, N. J. This wine, under the direction of Mr. Speer, has been brought to a state of great perfection. It possesses^.he highest mepicinal virtues, and certainly as an article for medical use, it is not, in our judgment, to be surpassed in color, taste, or any of the qualities wnich constitute a pure, mild, and agreeable wine for the sick.—Boston Transcript.

1881. THE 1881,

GLOBE-DEMOCRAT

PROSPECTUS.

In issuing its prospectus for 1SS1, the GlobeDemocrat can make no promire for the future that is not reasonably sure of fulfillment, judging from its history In the past. In the Presidential contest Just closed it was recognized as the leading champion of the Republican cause in the West, advocating the men and the principles of the great party of freedom ana nationality, and always the exponent of its advanced thought, we shall continue that course unfalteringly in the future, so long as the Republican party remains true to the mission on which it set forth twenty years ago.

The election of James A. Garfield and Chester A. Arthur as President and Vice President of the United States, by an unquestioned majority of the electoral votes, secures peace and prosperity to the country for four years. We believe the Administration will soon gain, and will steadily hold, the confl- ,—- —lblican party, but land integrity, as well as by its loyalty to the principles of the

(WU "US «.v.» dence, not only of the Republican of the nation, by its wisdom and int well as by its loyalty to the principle organization which placed it in power. The Globe-Democrat firmly hopes to be able to give to President Garfield a cordial and earnest support. It believes that he will do the right as he sees it, and that he will bring to the discharge of his Presidential duties a clear head, an honest heart and a determination to serve his country to the best of his ability. Certain it is that no man ever entered the White House better fitted than he by nature, education and experience to furnish all that we expect from a good President.

The Republican party is now more thoroughly united and harmonious than it has been in many years. There are no rival "wings" to it and no opposing factions in it. The campaign that has Just closed welded it together in a solid mass against the common foe, and there are no signs of possible division. We believe this unity and harmony will continue throughout Gen. Garfield's Administration, and will result in a long continued lease of power to it. The Democratic party is broken and demoralized—defeated under the best candidate it has had in twenty years—an«i not likely ever again to present the unbroken front which the Republican party had to meet on the 2d of November, 1880

While national rather than local in its conduct and punjose, the Globe-Democrat will devote special attention to the subject of immigration, doing its best to invite the thrifty farmers and mechanics of the East and of Europe to settle on the fertile lands of the Southwest, and especially of the State of Missouri. This subject has engaged our attention in the past, and now that there are four years ahead of us free from the turmoil and excitement of a national political contest, we shall be enabled to give it additional thought and energy. There is room in the territory tributary to the great city of St. Louis for millions of new inhabitants, and there is land enough now untilled to feed the world if cultivated to its capacity. To invite those in pursuit of homes in the West to the facts capable of being shown on this subject shall be one of the special aims and features of the Globe-Democrat.

No newspaper, East or West, is better equipped than the Globe-Democrat for the collection and publication of news from all parts of the world. Our list of special correspond ents covers all the news centers in this coun try and in Europe, and they are all instructed to spare no labos or expense in procuring the latest and most reliable information, and jtly by telegraph. Oui ice has keen greatly in-

transmitting it promptly by telegraph. Our special telegraph service has keen greatly increased and improved in tho past year until it ranks among the most liberal in the West, and it is our intention to continue in this direction, availing ourselves of every opportunity to improve this journal as an impartial record of current events the world over. Our Weekly readers will get the full benefit of this service in selections from the most important of the dispatches sent to the Daily Globe-Democrat.

In its commercial reports the Globe-Demo •at has always been unrivaled among its uontemix)raries. No journal in the West pays so much attention to fullness and accuracy in giving a faithful reflex of the markets from day to day and from week to week. JVC US livm uaj wuuj ,, In this department we shall also keep pace with the growing demands of St. Louis and the West in all that is to be expected from •r published in the coinr--of the Mississippi Valley, in addition to a weekly -ents, to present our rea for the Farm, the Family,

great newspaper published in the coininoral metropolis of the Mississippi Valley. We shall aim, in addition to a weekly rec ord of current events, to present our readers with a newspaper for the Farm, the Family, and the Fireside. Special attention will be •iven to these several departments, which iave been conspicuous features of the Globe Democrat in the past.
