No boy ever wants to be a girl ; mosi girls at times wish they were boys. No man wishes he were a ' woman ; many women at times wish 1 they were men. The instinctive ' judgment of both sexes seems to he that women have the heavier end of i the rail to carry. And this fact men will do well to lay at heart. Accepting this judgment on the whole, I should like to poiut out some compensations In the lot of women, which may modify it a little, and gain for us men some of the pity which is handed over to women in a lump. First is the fact that women live louger than men. The general impression is that women start with a trailer constitution, are beset with greater perils, and are earlier drained of their vitality than men.. The fact is, however, that men are ground up in the mill of life faster than women. Imagine a thousand boy babies and a thousand girl babies starting out in life on the same day; follow them tlirnuirh life as their number gradually thins out, till the last one has vanished beneath his little hill of (lust, and you will find?so statistics assure us? that from beginning to end there are more of the girls alive than of the boys. Whate ver the complex causes of the sustained vitality of women may be, the fact seems to remain that, in its grand total, life deals more gently with.?them tbau with their brothers. A ,eecond compensation, is that women have more chances to enter a congenial profession than men. This Hies in the face of current opinion, for are not all professions open to men, and have not women still to fight their way iDto the limited number of callings open to them ? Very true, ifyou confine your attention to the gifted % few among men, and to the small minority among women who feel called Km nntnro tr? l?hnr side hv side with K,J men. But with the great majority of men and women the case stands differently. The number of men who can pick their calling and do a work ( in life which they Jove for its own ( sake, apart from the pecuniary reward , it brings them, is very small. Most boys, when they leavejschool, are put into a trade or business in which , there happens to be a good opening ( for them, and are left to acquire such ( colorless love for their work as habit brings. On the other hand, most women are able, sooner or later, to on(or tha itrnfoauirm whip.h. to the immense majority of women, is im- < measurably more congenial than any < other work they are able to do. I I mean the care of a family and house- I bold ol their own. There are few I women who will not gladly leave typewriting, clerking, school teachiug, < bookkeeping, or anything that men i are content to do their life long, and | enter the ancient and honorable pro fession of wifehood. Even women i with exceptional artistic gifts are con- ! stantly disgusting their teachers by breaking off at the beginning of a promising career and getting married. ! "Oh, ibat is because love enters in." Exactly. Every woman who marries a man she loves has the privilege granted only to the favored few among men. of putting her heart's deepest love into her work in life. The workingnwn tiniwllps maphinprv t.huf. rumbles and thumps ; his wife handles her children tbat smile and crow. The business man watches over the stream of money that runs in and out of his till ; his wife watches over the risings and falling of the current of life in a beloved little soul and body. He arrauges his store to please his customers, whom he does not love; she arranges her home to please her family and friends, whom she does love. What joys does a man's life hold to equal a woman's ? Does even an author's first book, or an iuventor's final model, give such a thrill of satisfaction as a first baby putting its lips to the mother's breast ? The applause of an audience grows stale to a popular orator ; does the welcoming shout of her children grow stale to a popular mother ? It is not a sufficient answer to say that a father shares in the home joys. , He does share, but it is not by far an equal share. He shares a mother's joy as he shares her pangs; he stands i outside of the curtain of the Most < Holy of life, whither she euters alone , as high priestess of humanity. Though a child loves its father dearly, in all f real trouble it will run from him to its mother; he can never feel to the full j that exquisite sense of its trust and dependence, which constitute a mother's daily bread. He is on the circum- i fereuce of the child's life ; she is its ( centre. , As our industrial life now goes, it is hard for most men to see anything exalted in their work, or to realize that they are engaged in the service of i humanity, and not merely making . money. iiusiness life is in its substance selfish and sordid, though it may have a fringe of nobility, if conducted by a noble man. On the other hand, womau who is mistress of a home, and is giving the substance of her strength to mature young lives < can at any moment realize that she is; engaged in a service to God and humanity, in a work second to none on i earth, a work royal in its dignity, sacrificial in its ministry and eternal i in its effects. Another compensation is that wom-| en enjoy a degree of liberty enjoyed j only by the favored among men. The; men who are their own masters are! getting scarce ; we are all becoming employees. Time was when an artisan was master of craft and lord in his own shop. Now he is one "hand" among a thousand, obeying the rules of the shop, fined if he violates them, liolding his very right to labor at the will of others. Meanwhile his wife is still mistress within her four walls. Housewives are nearly the sole sur vivors of the old regime of small industries. They have the disadvantages of it in being unable to subdivide their work as men have done; but they have the tremendous advantage of liberty. Next to the drawings of love, I think it is the prospect of independence which makes girls so willing to exchange their position in the shop or store for the dignity of the young housewife. Being mistressand often sole worker in her workshop, the housewife has also a greater variety of employment and experience than most men. Women complain of the j monotony of their work. Truly it is monotonous, liut is the work of men not so ? Who has had the most variety from eight to six, the book- 1 keeper on his stool all day, entering ( items and adding figures, or the bookkeeper's wife, going the round of her:i i housework ? Men's work is being subdivided more and more, giving every mau only a few things and more goods are thus produced, but the effect on the work is not so desirable. ? Nothing is so wearing to body and soul . as to do incessantly the same thing. I [ think, w'ith a large part at least of our , industrial population, men's work is j ^ more monatonous than the housework j ? of the women ; and if a womau is sol, minded she can, by virtue of her in-1 ^ dependence, vary the routine of her ,, duties to some extent, while men often ! have 110 option whatever about the way which they do their work. I know that the argument of this' article is one-sided. There are other : s" sides to the matter. But I often feel 1 th.-it the ininoritv nf women, who are capable and desirous of sharing in the ! Jprofessional life of men, are by their L struggle and outcries leading astray t the judgment of other women, spread- j ing the impression that men have I more of the real good of life than j ^ women, causing some women to spend j their life's labor for that which will! never satisfy them, and causing a still; greater number to think slightingly of i woman's chief calling and to feel a | greater grievauee against their broth- > ers than is just.?Watchman. l*uste tliIn in the Scrap Book. Prof. J. F. C. DuPre, horticulturist | of Clemson College, tells how the or- j chardes and gardens there are protected from mischievous insects, jay birds jv and English sparrows : We have needed and used very little and but t few insecticides, except to test their relative merits. Small boxes, elevated r on poles at the rate of live to the acre, have been the nesting aud brooding ^ places of the common blue bird and other insectivorous birds, and these, with the aid of common toad, have kept all noxious insects subjuegated, f except the harlequin bug. No bird or * fowl, so far as we have observed, will u:ii Aftf tl-tio Kurr (\tw nilp Iq tn r rviii ui cav tii 10 v/u* M?w .w .v . encourage and provide for (by furnish-1 \ ing places and food in winter) all birds of every kind except the jay bird s and the socalled English sparrow, f These two last we kill on sight. The blue bird, cat bird, and the old field sparrow are worth their weight in "silver" to any gardener. The various cabbage worms are easily disposed of. Wheat bran, corn meal, gyp- ' sum, floats of any fine dust, freely sprinkled on the plants when the dew is on, will soon destroy them. After v the cabbage lias headed, take a leaf s from the bottom and lay it on the top late ill the evening ; in the early mor- 9 niug you will find most of the worms f Dii underside of this leaf. The harle- f cjuiu hug is made of sterner stufl'. Next lo hand-picking, the best remedy we ( have found is to plant mustard or tur-1 ^ nips near to the ctibbage the bug pre-1 ^ fers these' and gathered on them kill [both) with crude petroleum or cheap kerosene oil. ? b d The SpiUerM. The last of the four little things ? ivhich King Solomon said were "ex- I needing wise" is the spider. Of this i " little insect he tells us : "The spider j taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces." (Prov. xxx. 28) There are many ways in which spid- 1 irs show wisdom, as you ?11 must have J noticed if you have watched them at r their work. When one has work to do; o she takes both those little hand sthat reach out in front of her head, and she seems to have no idea of working with one hand, half working and < half playing. She works, and then ' she rests, and then she is so patient and persevering in building up the web and drawing the lines tight that we . m<>v wall lt?u rn frnm lif>r fn fjikw hold ' with both hands, anil not stop until our work is finished. The lesson of patience anil perseverance a spider is said to have taught King Bruce, of Scotland, one day e when he was sad and discouraged. He was hiding in a hut from his enemies: who were hunting nim, and he i saw a spider trying to get from one I Oeam in the roof to another. It tried \ six times and fell every time. Bruce remembered that he had tried six times to save Scotland and had been defeated J every time. Then he watched the p spider the seventh time, and saw it slowly and carefully fasten its thread to the beam and draw itself across. He resolved to persevere as the spider had done, and went out to take up his j work again.?Youth's Instructor. A Little Itootblack. ^ A hundred years ago there lived a little boy in Oxford, whose business it' was to clean the boots of the students j of the famous university there. He V was poor, but bright and smart. Well, this lad, whose name was i^eorge, grew rapiuiy in lavor wim uie \ students. His prompt and hearty way I of doing things, and his industrious habits and faithful deeds, won their admiration. They saw in him the promise of a noble man, and they pro- j posed to teach him a little every day. J Eager to learn, George accepted their proposal; and he soon surpassed his teachers by his progress. "A boy who I can blacken boots well cau study," y ?aid one of the students. "Keen as a brier," said another, "and plu6k enough to make a hero." But we cannot stop to tell of his paLience and perseverance. He went on, 1 step by step, just as the song goes : s= "One step and then another," until he became a man?a learned and J eloquent man?who preached the gos pel to admiring thousands. The little bootblack became the renowned pulpit . orator, George Whitefield. Old Virginia Ketchup.
