TWO Y0T7BQ ME5. When a vonnir man whose intellUnnoe and attractive manners, and sot his bank account, secure to him a passport among charm.ne society women, finds that p rtea. and asaembh" dances. snd the opera and such like, cost more j than he can aftord. he is wise if he de termines to cut the whole thins, and brave, too, i( he d res to g his rea- j sons. - We h e lately heard of a- ase In point. To ng l ercy Warbtrrton, whom every body knows ass general lavonte, among menu weu as women, told some of his lady friends, the other night, that he wuld be charmed to dance the german" with them every night in the week, but that he couldn't atl'ord bouquets like the other men. and If t owers were a prime re i- uisite, be woo d have to give np dancing. Pe said: You know mv sa ary is small, snd I have to dress tol erably well, and, as it m'.ght seem, ex pensively: though it is not o very ex. pensive in the long run to (ret the best materials and have them well made.' I am fond of society, snd like to show mv friends that 1 arrorecfata their kin 1- nesa, but I believe that they will respect me all tbe more u 1 confess my inabili ty to In nr, honestly, what seem to be necessary expenses for a society man." The not on was gett ng abroad ,that tne ambition o' all the gi s that were conr tng out was to get the largest possible number o bounueta; also, no one was consi ered worth dancing with unless he eonld orovide his rtartn r with Jao uemnots, "Nela,,r "Bon Silenea," or "t ouvanira." and aVtha p esent price of i owers it seems almost enm nti in one wno cannot a ora to spend the amount o. a week's board on a bouquet. We have not heard how the annonn-ement o( bis determination was reoeived by Ferov's friends, but we are mistaken in our animation of the ater age sensible wo an if he loet caste or favor by h s honest confession. If his example were to be followed by others in circumstances 11 a bis. mere would be caiue for rejoicing. Heis we have young men a' I around us who are now Lv ng beyond their incomes, or at' any rate, not laying anything by for th future, ine Class we reter to ao. not spend much on themselves, unless their trenerosity to others may M called sort of retired self shness. . They go inte gay society and fa 1 into its ways. -Taey see other young fellows, who . are borf to wealth ana luxury, spending vast urns on mere fancies ana ir vouuest now it is a ball or party, a concert or a p ay, an el borate supper or an -expen- si e excurs on. Donoons. . oou nets ana score of other kings. wh:ch- some young women seem to demand or .as pect as natura rights, simply Decease some young men. with more money than Drains, can oe touna to Destow. them. In a small ooromunitr like our own tbe amount of money wbl h a man on a sal. ary his a r ght to spend 'or anything la tolerably well anown, or verv nearly guessed at and if he is thought to be liv ng beyond h:s income, white it m kas bis ladv Mends very delicate about ra- ceiv ng his favors, they hardly sen the wsy cli ar to decline and yet not hurt his leel ngs. ' t s we are writing for a purpose mav Ului-tratd what we wish to hint by a true story, in a large o ty, not vert far aw..y a young man lately held a po sition of trust n an extensive house, and large amounts ol money pas ed through his hands tla iy He had grown up in the hns.nesa irom a bov. and had bean promote i for his cap.iclty and honesty, until his salary was . large enough to support himel', his mother and sister, v ry comiortably.

He was- always punct-.al snd diligent, his accounts always soemea straight, tin at last the , crash came By one of those Littla thinirs whi h some men call "accidents," and others providences, a heavy dttfalca tion was found out. amount nor to thousands of dollars. A system alio Sroceaa of embezzlement had be n go ig on lor some years, carefully hidly saMiiiui nxing oi ngures, tne oes r uing mainly on poor men. women and chil dren wbo had entrusted their sma'l earnings to a oonoe n of unsta ned re pute. rwi t punishment of tbe trui tv followed on lhe discovery, and now the ofl'ender lives where there are 'ew pict ures on tbe walls of the room, whore his food is not prepared by a famous cook nor his coat made by a fashionable tailor.

Not to be farther tedious, we tell them that. If they are brave enough to imi tate the young man whom we spoke of in the beginning; they, will w'n the es-J teem of every woman whose esteem is worth having. The expensive gifts are sot expected by sensible girls. In nine cases out of ten a- girt is em arrase 1 rather than delighted, especially when she can not help feeing that tbe money spent to give h r p'easure could be ill a Tordad. It Is simply de icacy, I ear of hurting the giver a - feelings, whioh leave many a woman in the alaa posi tion of seem tig to welcome such favors, when the wou.d give a good deal to see ner way ciear. to aeutine tnem. u a few of our sensible girls, with a tact and bravery equal ' to ' their beauty. w mid fust express their views about the sublex t, there might be s few mad men about town for some days, but there would be fewer foolish ones in the end.

In the Wurzins Drophecv. however. there is a wheel within a wheeL It now appears that Wiggins is about to spring an almanao' upon the public, and his predictions for February 9 and the one yet to be fulfilled In .March are only advertisements for tha almanao. lt is one of . the strange phases oi tne human mind, perhaps wa should aay one of the moat conspicuous weaknesses that it takes to almanacs, , although al manacs -. rom time immemorial have been gay deceivers.

No amount of failure undermines the pooolxr iaith in tbe almanac.

Dr. Sartrent said that the idea prev alent that thestronge t men come from tne country is an erroneous one, as, altho igh certain bones and muscles of those accustomed to manual labor are larger and stronger, vet the develop ment of .the heart and lungs 'does not correspond, and therefore tne excess of energy in one direction is onset by the loss in another. either ao tne oet physiqura come from the city, but, in general,', from the large towns, where the advantages of pure air, out door freedom; and - tbe absence of severe manual' labor are comb ned.

Harvard Daily The Banger ef Kissing. A reporter, conversing with s cele brated physician " yesterday on ; the a arming condition of tho death-rate in San ranciaco and the prevalence of diphtheria reoeived soma hints on the chief ca tse of infection, which, under existing circumstances, are almost re markable. The phy-lc an in question is one whose reports on infectious d senses have gained him an European reputation, and . who has paid special attention to the subie t of diphtheria. I e modestly req ested that his name should not be given to tbe public u any use was made of his remarks. He said "The impression that prevails that the neglected state of our sewers and streets is a prolific cause of the disease S oken of generally as a mo tie u perfectly cor rect, but so many cases of diphtheria have come under my notice lately where the patients were surrounded by the utmost penect sanitary conditions that 1 found it ne essary to look beyond th se causes for the oriein o. the in eo- tion. A little research 'showed me that the prime cause in all those cases wai the same. All the patients were ch:l dren or qu te young girls, and . found that they bad contra ted the disease by ki-s ng some in acted schoolmate or pla route. I w 11 g ve an instance to "illustrate my reraa ks, and which w 11 serve at the ame time to Illustrate the extreme danger children are subjected to by kissing their young com p nions. A little girt, daughter of wea thy parents, who almost worshi, ed her. lor she was their only child, com pla ned to her attendxnt a fewmomings ago that she di t not :eel well, and did not wish to go to school. The nurse, i wel -mean nsr but - ienorant person failed to see anything serio is the mat ter W th the child, laughed at her com plaint, and not desiring to tro ble tbe mother took the child to school as usual. Thev child - g-ew worse rapidly. The small red d.. htheria spot in her throat. which azv doctor wo Id have noticed. had ne been ca led in. but which car ried no significance to the nurse, grew ana en'arjjea rapiaiv. ana oe ore recess covered alf of the back portion of tbe throat. The little one's teacher noticed that the ch id was re dly s ck. and sent her h .me. refore she le t the school, which 1 may add is an extremely well con ducted private seminary, the child said iood-bv to her desk-mate and kissed her. The little grl who was kissed caught the disease. In the case of the first chil I the disease had spread so far when medical assistance waa called in that she died, though had a doctor been called in earlier her life would probably have teen saved. Tho second child was promptly treated snd herliie was saved. Another case that came to my no Lice bothered me for some tune as to how the chiid caught the complaint, but at atst 1 louua ont tnat her roomer naa allowed her to kiss the lips of a little companion who lay dead i a coffin, a victim of diphtheria. ' I nder-tand me, I do not intend to convey the idea that I have discovered anything new Every noctor - ould tell you the same thina; but I do not believe the general publio know the danger of tbe promiscuous kissinr induigea in oy cnuaren. l they did. parents would stop the'r chil dren from the habit, for in children it ia nothing but a habit; and conveys no sense of a ection o gratification. The teachers in the public schools would do well to caution their scholars aga'nst tha habit. Taking a common-sense view of the esse and one is (convinced of the danger o' infection from - a kiss. Diphtheria is a lor-eio-n trrowth ' in the . throat. . In fection is "caused ' by particles ' of this - growth coming . in contact with : a healthy ( surface. . The saliva flows over the diseased spots and ab sorbs a portion of the minute spores. The habit of most people, especially children, la to moisten their lips with the tongue. - 'The infected sa iva is thus carried to the lips, and the contact of uD, m kiasinz carries- tbe disease irom tne tbe healthy person. . .Nor a diphtheria the only form of infect on that tan be c rried by a kiss. In the eonrsa of mv nractice i have come across eaMS of the most loathsorre disease which the patient contracted by contact with the llpa of a diseased person. r I wouid not wish to create unnecessary alarm in the mind of anv pe. son. nor have I any desire to stop the osc. latorv en:oyment bo dear to sweet' carta and . new y-wedde folks. I do not suppose, that such leoole would heed mv warn-, In 9 - if they heard - them, but I do say that ior an nnneaitny person to kiss another ia a crime, and . tha habit of promiscuous kissing most dangerous from a sanitary point of v'ew." -Han Francitco Cor.

Among the important treasures thus defeated by Democratic obstruction were the following: The Shipping bill, designed to j romo'e American com ma ce on the high seas by more liberal d avigatuin laws; the. bill which lodged the Presidential succession in the mem bers of the Cab net according to rank in case of tbe denth or ina iliiy of both r res ident and Vice-Pros dent; the b, 11 provid ing for prcor in the French spoliation claims, the non-pa ment of which is a disi;ra e to the American Government; bills establishing postal-savings deposi tories, autho izing the issue of gold cer tificates, making a treaty with Ger many, providing a National Pankruptcy i ct. and manv others of ike import ance. The bills which had come over from the Senate and remained unacted upon by tbe Houe numbered one hundred and twenty-six in ail. - The Democratic filibustering against paving a "nigger his due caused the de eat of the oaded-Whisky bill; hut in doing this the l .'emocrats antagoni ei some ot their best mends and sacrificed one of their pet measures. t'erhaps -this circumsta ce shows most clear ly how dee vrooted the . 1 emocratic race prejudice really is. The public can forgive the failure to pass the Fit'.- -. ohn Porter bill, as a result of the Democratic filibustering against - Lee. but it will not condone so readly the Democratic w.llingness to sacrifice all legislation . in order to gratify their partisan malice. In thin resp -ct they exhibited their customary indifference to public sentiment and their character istic defi iency in the sense o' publio re sponsibility. They will find that their obstruction tactics in the closing hours of t ongress will come back to plague them in the next campaign, not only on account of the unworthy purpose which prompted them, but also on account of the resulting failure of nrgent legis lation.
