Ftan Commissioner Pierce, of Penn
sylvania, thinks that there is a great
deal of money wasted by the Govern
ment trying to stook with salmon and
bass streanm which, by reason of the
clearing away of the forests and the
cultivation of the land, have become en
tirely unfit for such fish, their waters
having become warni and muddy. He
shys the re-stocking of inch streams is
"misdirected labor and expenditure
wh ich is almost a total loss.'' It is prob
able that Mr. Pierce is right. Bass and
salmon do not like muddy water. Carp
do not ohiect to it, and hence carp cul,
i ure is the most profitable.

ADVICE TO A BRIDEGROOM.
A "it of Advice that Diay be Followed av
Advntutie.
To become a usband is as merious a
'natter to a man as it is for a woman to
1ecome a wife. Marriage is no child's
play_; it brings added care, trial, per
plexity, vexation, and it reqluire's a great
deal of happiness which legitimately
springs out of it to make the balanee
ill its favor. Very few people live hap
pily in marriage, and yot this is not be
cause unhappiness is germano to this re
lation,;but because those who enter it do
not know, first, how to get married, and,
seconid, how to live married happily.
You have already made your choice -
wisely, I am houtntd to believc'. These
qutalities of ciniraettr tlieh have at
tracted you to choose as you have, should
make your love grow daily while you live
together.
As to the second point : If you wish
to live in harnouius union with your
wifo, start out with that avowed recog
nition of the fact that she is your oou
pamlion and co-partner. Marriage usually
makes the wife neither of these. Tn
lan v instances, site sees less of her hus
hand titum before she married him. HIe
comies, he goes, he reads, thinks, works,
ami under the stimulus of businesa
brings all his powers and faculties to tho
surface, and is developed thereby---not

tsUally slrive'l 111) or put on a look of
premature age. but women frequently
do, and it is plain to me why they do.
MNfar'ried women are shut up in houses
and their chief care is for things that
have no inspiring influences. Their
tin is ta ken up inl meeting the physi
cal n(ecessit its of their families--cookin
washing dishes, keeping the house in
order, sew ing, receiving company- -not
ne of which has ill it a tendeney even
to culture and elevation. Married wc

m1eanis a life of a.xation and pett iness.
It ives no soit of stimulus to lie

and nobler uenls of Libor, developls into
manly bealiuty and grows in eliaraete',
while his wife at home, who has as faith
fully performed her share of the ii ork,
wit}hers and decays prematurely.
Treat your wifu exactly as -e,ourself
would liko to be treated if you had to
live under hier eircumstances. and you
will not go far wrong.
)o not entertain the silly notioi that

Jay Gould at the Play.
Toe Howard, in the Philad,Aphia
Times, on the first. perforinulco of the
''Silver King," writes as follows:
Mr. Gould sat in one of the upper
proscenium boxes. I hadn't specilly
noticed him until in one of the affceling;
opisodes with which the "Silver King
ahounnds, after I had for the fifteenth or
twentieth time taken off my glasse to
wipe my eyes, I chanced to turn and in
a box saw what seemed a very curious
illustration of the text with which I be
gan my letter. Ordinarily, in a box Mr.
Gould sits faeing the stage, his coutnte
ianieo rather shaded by the curtains.

(L,orge-n very brighit fellow, by th:
wa: . On tlis occatiion Mr. Gould
le;..ed on his elbow far over the rail, so
that his head was absolutely hathed in
the light from the big chandelier, and
followed with his restless eye the move

from his pocket, a handkerchief, he
qlic k1y rubbed his eyes and vigorously
lowed his nose. 1i non George, who
had been sitting near him, ros,e, restinr

A Iunerai in a Lumber Camp.
One of the accidents so common in the
lumber regions recently visited the camp
at Kettle Crook, Penn. One of the men
was watching the slide where the log
came down to see that they kept the
track when Pust above him a swiftly
moving log jumped the track striking
him and crushing him to death instantly.
He was taken up and carried to camp on
a hastily-improvised bier made of pine
branches, and was laid out in one of the
girl's rooms, and the men talked over
what should be done with him.
"He came from Maine, and hain't got
rio relatives near here, as far I know,"
said the boss, "and I don't even know
what part of the State he came from.
kll we can do is to bury him and adver
Eiso for his family, to send his wages
away."
So it was decided to bury the man in
the woods with a great pino tree, under
which he hrad many a time eaten his din
ner to mark the place. A man was sent
to 6ormania for a coflln and clumsy but
tender hands made his last bed and por
rormed the necessary services for the
lead comrade. The next day was set
epart for the funeral, and one of the
mn, who had been a Methodist ex
bIorter, acted as chief in performing the
last sad rites, which wore singularly sol
M'm and impressive, as everything of a
religious nature is away in the silent
woods, where Nature adds an element of
solemnity unknown in the most gorgeous
cathedral.
The sermon was short, and the
speaker, in an impressive way, corn
mented on the danger of the life in the
woods and the special need for prepara
tion for sudden death. Speaking of the
deceased, he said:
"He was not ready to die, and I would
wish you to leave off many of his faults.
But there was much in him that was
noble and manly, and these qualities we
will all do well to remember and emu
late. You cannot forgot his courago in
risking his life to savo a fellow on the
jam last spring, when the mad stream
was hurling the logs around him, and
death seemed hidden in the timber
whero his crushed comrade was strug
gling for life. And you all remember
his brave notion on the landing, only a
month ago, by which another life Was
saved. We all have reason to admir(i
and love him, and, rough as he was, I
believe the future will deal kindlier with
him than with many who profess more
and do less."
When he spoke of the lives the man
had saved, and painted a picture of his
rude and bravely honest life, and in ten
der words spoke of his future life, the
strong men broko down, and ono, whose
life had been saved, sobbed aloud.
There wore no dry eyes among them,
and every man was a friend and a
mourner. As they carried him to his
resting-place under the old pine tree anid
'acli throw a handful of earth into the
grave, tears moisked tihe earth.
A Stock Experle tce.
Joaquin Miller relates his :.perience
in WPall street as follows: I had seen
Western Union stock go down about
eighteen points and so bought one hun
dred. It fell fEve lower and I took a hun
dred more. Five points lower, I took
another, and so on till I was getting
alarmied. I thought of a prominent
stoek huyer wiho was under somne obliga
tionis to me, or at least a truo friend, and
so stepped actross from my hotel to see
him. He was kind, qutiet, and pmry as
a kitten, almost lahyfuil, andi soon began
to poinit out on hits maps thme line of his
new Atlantic cable. Hie himself opened
the subject of telegraph s. '1'lio cccasioni
wats, opportn. I1 handediM him a co rtill
cato of purchaseii of 'Western Union and
Hkedl im wlhat to do, as I was already
ona the edge of my margin. HIo looked
at thme paper with a sweet and inrnocent
si~'aipine, as5 if Hia.iig: " Only) to think
thiat aniy man would touch the worthless
"'I' mi sio sorry you have bought this
stuiY. My telegraph i a the other line,"'
lie sig lhed, at lengthi.
'"Yes; I know. Bunt I ,bonght it be
mI t thotught it cheap.'
"It's i over'li no,Mr. Miller.''
"'A nd vi:ll he cheaper."'
"Well, we"-lookinmg at his ison
''have niot ia share ofI it, it ought tor ho a
grat deal cheaper.''
"Thlien I shalil sel Itwice the amioin t. I hold
and hiedge. Thiankil you, and good night."'
And the noext mnoring I didi sell-sell
right arnd left-for tIre wholel botttom
siemned to be falling out of W'estern
Union. It kept on tumlinitg, and by
niooni I wats even. By one o'clock I was
nmot only even, but alnost rich. I was a
ticher man tihan I had over been bieforo.
I remained a rich mian about thirty-five
iniiits. The tide began to set against
mec. WVesterni Union bounded up with a
rapidity thastfairly made me dizzy antd
b y the time the hammer fell in the Stock
Btoard [ literally liad noct car fare left.
H aving plenty oif leisure after that, I
wrote down thmo foregoing conversation,
andiu have copied it exactly. I have not
sieen my den 'iendit, the great stock
hoelder, since. But I find thtat at thu
time lie said lie had not a share of West
'irn Union, lie hind iabout two hundred
thouisanid shares, antd was ptieking it up
as frast na ho could knock it down.

One of' Josh BllHings's StorIes.
Josh Billings a few days ago told a re
potter of the Poughkoepsio Eage~ the
following story:
" One bleak day this winter, wvhen a
bliniding sinow storm was in progress, he
alighted irom an elevated railway train
at Twenty-tird street and Sixth avenue,
New York. At the foot of the stairs
stood a man thinly clad, without any
overcoat, and holding up two now load
p2ineils. As each person passed lie im
plored themi to buy his pencils, sayinag
lie had had nothing lo cat for a day, that
he was in need of immediate assistance.
Seven mcen passed him, and Josh was
the eighth, and ho bought thre pencils
and piasedt into tihe Fifth Avenue Hotel.
WVhile thtere lie got thinkhinmg the matter
over, anid air he liad some business at the
(hilsey House he thought the would try
anmd sell some lead penedsII onl his way up.
lie went to the news stand and b'oughlt
t wo pencils, wrappledl his coat about hmim,
pulled hris slouched biat down over his
eyes, and strt'tal. lHe 'malted on the
corner of T wenty-feim thia sreot and Broad
way, and stopped'i al pedestrian with
'Please buy miy two pencils for ten cents
each ; I am starving. I have had noth
ing to eat i r twenuty-fouir hours,' etc,
The man pushed him aside gruffy, ex
claimng, ' I enn buy three for a quarter
dlownr the strcot.' tlI'bree times more hre
stoippetd passers-hiy, each timro receiving
a rebuff. Finally he arrived in tire bar
room of the Oilsey House, and their
played the (lodge on a man wire was at
the bar. The man throw him a quairtor
with, 'Taike that, old man ; I don't want
any peoncila,' The bartender almost
imm-inediitely rcongii'.d Jo ih who called
the miraner bank ad tum th ,m... ti
