Is it, right for people to speak
scornfully of girls who have to work
for a living? No seneible man is
dazzled at the glitter of a jeweled
hand, a gold bracelet or a filled case
watch. All this has not as much
fascination as a pleasant disposition,
a happy intellectual face, a well-
cychff'l'^iiinw-g'^ a r:Ufttenh:gatrrt,
t 'v-Kwur. A dimpled chin and asunuy
face in the kitchen, are worth a doz-
en operatic siegers in the parlor paw-
ing the ivory and screeching: "A
Flower from My Angel Mother's
Grave," when very likely the poor
mother is hanging out clothes in the
back yard. It i-s nil light to know
how to appear as a refined aud en-
tertaining lady, hut to know how to
bo a good housekeeper, even if the
work has to bo superintended only,
is far hotter than superficial airs.—

Tfts fiijhest Type of Man.
• Our first acquaintance with man
was hs a savage, securing his food
from th© tleeh of animals a little low-
er than ho in the scale of intellectual
advancement. Far beyoud that
•>
period ho had material for a history,
for the first wo know of him he was
an artifice, working flinty atones info
implements for his rude purposes;
and having habitations, showing the
want of instinct in their impftrfectioud
and the imprints of a degree of intei
ligenco far above that of any beast:
Irom which ho may be supposed to
have originally sprung. At first he
was a hunter; a mere beast'of prey;
then a nomad, grazing h*s herds on
the primeval pastures, subsisting on
their flesh, aud using their .^kins Jor
protection against the oc>ld of winter
for they used clothing for uo other
purpose. For lung ng^.s, immeasura-
ble by means of any data wo can
command, ho a'oode in these two
states—the entered apprentice and
follow coaft in the ancient order of
men. As men multiplied aud game
grew scarce iu places, this animal wo
call man was driven to plaut, and
rudely cultivate the herbs, roots and
nuts which he had proyioubly learued
to eat. I a .short, he was driven by
life necessities to mvent agriculture,
or "necessity is. the mother of inven-
tion." This made it necessary for
him to settle down and become a
citizen. During all the ages before
he had been a peripatetic vagabond
following tho flight of birtjs and mi-
grations of beasts for subsistence:
but when he became a furmor, ho
look a long stride upward. lustead
of merely preying upon wild beasts,
he tamed them and begun to exer-
c-ine dominion over them. This was
the turning poiut in man's history.
Becoming a farmer, the more or les;i
permanent home was brought into
existence. Thou the characteristic
inhabitations of improved man
sprang into . existence, The home,
the farm and the family necessitated
tho community. These were the
stepping stones to higher develop-
ment* and greater achievements, aud
up to the present day, no elii ient
substitutes for the farm, the home
and the community has bfeen discov-
ered, and their efficiency and perma-
nence through all historic ages war-
