A fast young man decided to make a formal offer of his haud and heart--all. he was wan worth. He cautiously prefaced hie declarations with a few questions. Did ahe love him w«i enough to live in a cottage with him? Was she a good cook ? Did she think it a wife's duty to ^nake home happy? Would she consult hif tastes and wishes concerning her as­ sociates and pursuits in life? £ould she make her own clothes? etc, The young lady said that before she answered his, - questions, she would tell him of some f; of the negative virtues she possessed. She never drank, smoked or chewed; never owed a bill to laundress or tailor; never staid out all night playing billiards; ; never lounged on the street corners and ogled giddy girls; never "stood in" with the boys for cigars and wine suppers. "Now," said she, rising indignantly, "I Am assured that you do all these things, and yet you expect all the virtue® in uie, while you do not possess any yourself. I can never be your wife." And she -bowed him out and left him on the door- "" step a wiser man.--Health Journal. • Quaker's Temperance Lecture. Several persons, among them a Quaker . were crossing the Alleghany mountains in a stage. A lively discussion arose on the subject of temperance; and the liqtior business and those engaged in it were handled without giovee. One of the company remained silent. After enduring it as long as he could he said; - "Gentlemen, I want you to'understand that I am a liquor dealer. I keep a pub­ lic house of ; but I would have you know that I have a license, and keep a decent house. "I don't keep loafers and loungers J about my pl»ce, and when a man has enough he can get no more at my bar. "I sell it to decent people and do a re­ spectable business." tie thought he had put a quietus on the subject, and that no answer could be ~ given. Not so. The Quaker said: "Friend, that is the most damningpart of thy business. If thee would only sell to drunkards and loafers, thee would help to kill off the race, and society. would be rid of them. "But thee takes the young, the poor, the Innocent and the unsuspecting, and make drunkards and loafers of them. "When their character and money are gone, thee kicks them out, and turns them over to the other shops to be finish- el off; and thee ensnares others and * sands them on the same road to ruin."
