Whenever there is trouble and I can't give any relief or remedy, it distresses me, especially when the troublo is of a domestic character. Now here is a letter from a man who says, "I know a man--a-neighbor who is of a warm, affectionate, pas Wionate nature and loves his wife to distraction, but she is calm and cold and conservative by nature and, therofore, indifferent to his caresses, and whenever he vonturos to kiss her and put his arms about her,ehe repels him with such expressiorld as, lOh, Tom, get away, don't bther ne.' She is pure, good womn and lovo her husband in her way, but he comes honLo --tirbd or disap pointed .With' his day's work. The j1VSioflIow is really pining away and languishing for lack of love for reciprocity, as it were, and can't got it. Now, what is the remedy ? Can't you bring your universal phil osophy to bear upon this case and solve the problem ?" No, I cannot. I am helpless. Nothing but time will equalize and harmonize that couple. I am afraid their nion was a misfit but he took her fqF better or worse and must be feegniled. In fact, he ought to be thankful in theso degenerate days that he has fgupd 4 pure good wwjnan, even if she is not as tnm 11ltuous in her love as he would like her to bo, But tho is a good doctor. Time will assuago him down some iind will tone her up me, for a man and his wife get more and more alike a. the years roll on. There were some good friends at my house last night and seriously read to them this letter aud asked for advice about answer n pi. They all 'agree th4 tho maIn was not'writing libout his noigh bor, but was relating his own pitiful condition. 4 ippired ;pan said, "Write hif tq gpt away qnd quit bothering her when she says So. 4 bachelor friend said, "Write him tQ girt a little with another papla wife and she will come to her Qensos i4ighty quick and return his paresses." 'iliat ia all you knicew ahp,ut it," gaidl ancfr-daine. "The flirtations Ni es 1nd destroys love and hap, pin~ess~ too, They are nlore apt tQ bring contempt anid even scorn, A truew woman willI suffer andI endure auny fault or iliing except that." A young married woman said tim idly, "She must be a very strange kind of a woman not to like caress ing, but I do think she ought to nitim a' the do6rand gv i gnlile or. $wo when 40e cogige ho,me." llHQ nmust bo a right goqd man tgnd 4 am sorry for him," sqid a lassie in her teens. "0r alayhe be is so hlor djd cqarse anJ Mgly that no self.:res apeoting woman would. want him bothering her for dasa anud etaross, ess every tf me be came about," said a las"sie out of her teens. "Maybe he smoked and his breath was disagreeable," said a benedic6 who never used tobacco. 4o got but little comfort from t.his goo9iy company and my wife contlnu6d the disorob eak ~n in bor q ioway, by W rl,mIahik y rfriend had better have kept his nsytohimself. Let him stickc to his promises that he made at the al r apply for a writ of mandamus jindu make her kiss hirm according to law," said a learned judge iwho wats prouont I would make her rooip roento If the case was in my court. The writ of mnandamrus is a far reaching and effectual process." Well, of course, the conversation drifted to the topic of May and De oomber mairiages;' with grooms of more than three-score and ten and brides of tender years. We all iigraed that if such a groomi had anythingr to leave such a b,nide be s'dcqjis name and would depart t)if4 life in a reasonablo timo, sho was justified in marrying him. But in the first place, the property should be in sight the "quid pro quo" and it should be fixed, set tied, dowered, dovetailed, clinched n pon her, and there should be an implied contract that he should die in strict accord anco with the death rato, the exp,oe tation laid down in tho life insur ance !-bles. Indeed, if the Into fro. quency of old men marrying young women is to be multiplied to an alarming extent, there should be os tablished a death insurance offico so that the young girl could go to it and got a policy insuring the old man's death in a limited time, and if he didn't die within the time, the com pany should pay her so much as she insured for-say $5,000 or $10,000 or $20,000, as the case may be. With the money of course she could live decently and even secure a di vorce on the ground of fraud-fraud in not dying according to hope and expoetation and an implied promise. Why, I know a lady who married an old man twenty-eight years ago. He was sixty and she but twenty and as sweet and pretty as a pink. lIe was rich and sickly and agreed to settle on her $30,000, to be paid at his death. He looked like he would die in a year, but, bless your souls, my swoot young sistors, he is living yet and she looks noarly as old as he doos. jjqr bloom of youth is gone. When sbo married she was an orphan and soon became worso than an orphan, and she is cildloss. Wh4t a ipistako ele made. What a fraud Iyas perpetrated upon her. What a wreck of lirtbly happiness, Young girls, bewaYR 'fljese unions are not according to nature and they shock the judgment and tho sonti mont of mankind, There aro widows enough to take those onerablo wid owers, but let the maidens romain single if they cannot got a young man of their choice.

Holloway by Mr. Wilmor Atkluxon, l'roprietor of The Farm .Journal of Philadelphia. My Dear Sir: The making of money is part of the gonius of an American, but for the saving of it he is not so conspicuous. Imprudence and extravagance aro wofully appar ont. The inculcation of habits of saving promotes thrift, industry and indopendenco. It lessens extrava ganco and the chances of want and poverty in old ago and sickness. To stimulate saving by offering easy op. portunitios and needed security to millions striving to be provident, and millions more thoughtlessly improvi dbt, is worthy of the loftiest. states. lmanslhip, The prime requisite to induce methodical saving is the convenient opportunity of depositing small sums as they are received or are available before they burn a hole through the pocket., and aro spent for something not necessary and per. manontly valuable. No less important is a guaranty of undoubted security. This is lacking with individuals, or oven with cor porations, who often, for the sake of larger gains, resort to operations which have ended in disaster and ruin. The safety of tho dollar put away is moro ilportapt thn tho re. turns it ;Aay bring in the wiay of in. terest. A placo near at hand whore a dollar may be deposited, and where it is absolutely against. the burglar, the tlief, oad the temptnti.>ns of the saloon - koepor, must. ovory whero provo a strong inducement to naving. The National anks du not and cannot fill this need. A National bank can only be started in towns of a cortainl pira now far above the averago of the country village. Then they will not tako very small ac counts, and do not allow interest on those which might be worthy of their tiking. The established saving finds and banks pre in the .ontors of indust rios, the largo towns and cities. In Now England the averago distance from thOe postoffico to tho nearest savillgo bank is 10 miles, in the Mid die States 25 miles, in the Southern States 33 mile., in gQ Westerm States 2IIihW, and on the Pacific Slopo "2 miles. The whole average for the United States is ovoy ' no ilety per cent o.f the depositors inl post al snvit.(s depositories woujd be those whjo now hzave no facilities for' afo saving. In Canada, wheire po)st al savings bank(s hiave been in succesisfuil operation since 1808, over on-thbird of the depositors are farm ors. Ia t.he United States the chim ney corner, the trunk, the bed tick ing, the old stocking, hide amiounts of money whlich, though small indi vidually, colletively make a grand; total nowv practically withdynw~n froiu circulation and1( no,n-pro.ductive. Al most all o'f thuis would b)o t urned vovr to the care of the Quvernmont if gotstte~4rs were authorized to re ceivo it. Postal s wings (depositories will help) nmak better citiazens. Thelu muan or wvoman, boy or girl, wvho has a savings accont will hoc~au at once an upholder of law anid order, [and tako a dleop and growing inteirat in the weolfare of the bst ato. All the on. 1lightenedl count ries|of the world long n;(o dliscovered this,. and have lalcd piostail savings banks in successful operation. (Great Brititan establiabed them in 1861, Franc4 in 1882, A nstria 1883, Canada 1868, Italy 1876, Belgium 18(6), Swedeni .884t, Net herlands 1881, Sandwich .1slan(ds 1886, oe., etc. Ini all theso countries the plan hais worked well. In Great Brit ianf 01ne porson in every eight is a (depositor in tile pos tail savinIg banks, timd in a single year as5 Ilmany as 01no mtilion people have opuened 1now accounmts. lai this country where than pot. ollico department niow handles safely and1 ceioniically over one lgundred million dollars annually of the p)oo, p)le's muoneuy in money ordoer trains fors, its mlachinaery is well e(julppe(d to take charge of samall savings. To snum up: P~ostah savings de p)ositories would g.ive the people: 1. Absoluto security from los. 2. A return in t he way of intoresi on their savings. 3. Convenience in making d'o posits. 4. Repayment not, affected by chango of residence. 5. Prevention of poverty or tom porary want by inculcating habits o thrift and saving. (5. Education of the children to the knowledge of the value and man agement of money. They would give to the coun t ry: A contented, happy, industrious, independent people who would feel a direct personal intorost in the sta bility of government. It would make available large sums of money which are now hidden away where fires often destroy and thieves break in and steal. I sincerely hope that the estab lishment of postal saving depositories in the near future moots with your hearty approval, and that your great influence will be thrown in their fav or. Will you brioily give your views on the subject, with such comment and suggestion as may occur to you? Even a brief word of encouragoment will be beartily appreciated.

To the Editor of the New York Evening Post.: Sir: As I read the Evening Post's eulogies on President McKinley for r-ot curtailing, as Na feared, the ap plicati.on 0( the civil-service law, I hoped and expected that N ewo really marching steadily on towards that millOnnium when norit alone will rule in appointments to public oflice, but, alas for tlAo hopen of the oivil-servico roformers! I fear poli ti stil iule, if not openly, yet so crotly, judging from an episode within my personal knviiledgo. At ono f ho inportant South American ports the Consul ij 0 Soutlhern gentle!1kt4% i university grudunito, who, respected by all who know him there, takeo the l0ad in the consular nops at the lport, and is thoroughly elincienit in his oflicial duitiea. Fearing that this Consul, who is a Democrat, might b.e dia placed, the chief of We only Ameri aan firg in the place, an old estab lished ht.4se of some seventy yeare' sxistenco, wrote to th.oe INos*iden1t, sottiing forth~ te abo.ve facts, also that the place had been oursed with somo disgraco(nil speecienens of the genus pnlicinn as Consuls, and1 begged that. the prese'nt incumbent be retainon Ho wrote alf one vital ly intorested in American conmmer-ce, at that p)ort especially, and as know ing from poronaml i.ntorcourso there them qualificat.ions of thbe Consul, with whomn ho had, however, no ac quainitanco preoun to the Consul's arrival at his~ port, The letter was "referred to tlho Stato Depart ment.'' I have no doubt that thle P'residenit's secret ary p)enned the reply with a chuckle at the jnnocee of the imerchanta who thought that a knowledge of the ex cept ionatl qulliications of a Coanl, fnrnished the President b)y one who is especially interosited inl halvinig his country respectably and( eflicient-. ly represenitedl at tha~t port, would induce himn to ref ain in t ho service such a Consul.
