Ego and afelio.
I asked o? Echo t'other day
(Whoso words are few and often fanny)
What to a question she should say
Of courtship, love and matrimony?
Quoth Echo plainly: "Matter o'money."
Whom, should I marry? should it be
AK dashing damsel, gay and pert
A pattern of consistency, ,
Or selfish mercenary flirt 1
Quoth Echo sharply: "Navy flirt."
What if, weary bf tho 'strife
That long has lured the gay deceiver,
She promised to amend her life,
And sin no more; oan I believo her?
Quoth Echo with decision : "Leave her."
But if some maiden with a heart
On me should ventnre to bestow it,
Pray should I aot the wiser part,
To take the treasure or forget it?
Quoth Eoho very promptly: "Go it."
Bnt what if seemingly nf mid
To bind h?t fate in Hymen's fetter,
She vows she means to die a maid,
In answer to my loving letter?
Quoth Echo very coolly: "Let her."
What, if in spite of her disdain,
I find my heart entwined about
With Cupid's dear, delicions chain,
' So closely that I xin't get out?
Quoth Echo, laughingly: "Getont."
But if some maid with beauty blest,
As pure and fair as Heaven can make her,
"Will share my labor and my rest,
Till envions death shall overtake her?
Quoth Echo (sotto voce:) "Toko her."

The Boy of thc Period.
He is a sort of asteroid in tho social sys?
tem. He and his kind inovo in widely
elliptic orbits of largo inclination, cutting
society nt certain nodal points like those
hundred and odd vagrant lumps of cosmic
matter that if put together would hardly
make up the mass of a respectable planet.
Perhaps, equally like thom, ho may servo to
demonstrate) some yet to bo discovered Bo
dean law ruling the little universo of which
he forms so numerous yet so trivial a part.
Perhaps he may have a use, os all things
have; but then tho designs of Heaven aro
inscrutable, and not to bo found out by
searching. He is a boy of tho period, hut
not the boy of tho period, for, unliko the
periodic gul, whose generic and specific
types have been somewhat ungenerously de?
termined in the able monograph of the
Saturday Review, the boy is protean and be?
longs to a class rather than to a species.
The girl can hardly be looked upon tis a
mere make-weight, like a priuter's leads
that serve to space out the loading article
more prominently, that high distinction
being reserved for the society boy, and un?
hesitatingly accepted by him. The society
make-weight is not always such by virtue of
brains, wealth, or family, a weak and inato
gentility of dress and manner being about
all that is wanted to separate him from the
herd that lies huddled together one grade
lower. He is manifestly a step above the
urbane shop-keeper, and, as things go with
ns, equally .removed, contrary-wise, from
the fast ydung man who inherits a well
crammed deed-box. He is most frequently
professional, and of professional ancestry.
His college course, by mixing him with
young men of money, gives him his first
insight into that complex and unsocial
scheme misnamed society, in which it is
speedily his aim to revolve, although insig?
nificant, in any orbital lacuna that may be
open to him. He dances, aud this enables
him to fill np a "German;" in fact, dancing
well is about half his social capital. He can
talk, if not brilliantly, at least intelligibly,
and this brings him into demand to help fill
a parlor, and perhaps save from wall-flower
ship some poor thing aronnd whom the cold
blasts that hurtle in the zone the wrong side
of thirty have blown ronghly. He is not
always fortunato enough to loll in the tro?
pical luxuriance of society in its teens, for
he is generally understood not to be a mar?
rying man-his means being limited. Thie
keeps the social make-weight out of the twe
extremes of model domesticity and model
viciousness in a fashionable way. With him
a cheery wife and a fast nag, a costly clut
and ft chubby enrly-pate to fondle on his
knee, are equally remote objects of ambition.
He would be dissipated' if he could-bul
how? Wanting the wherewithal to do so,
he makes a virtue of his fate, limits himsell
to billiards and segara, and licks up th<
crumbs that fall from the social table witt
unoommendable lack of-to use a humble
word-spunk. And so he drifts along, gra
dually developing a cynical turn toward thc
girl of the period, and is notably eloquon
on her extravagance and unfitness for wife
hood, meaning, of course, unfitness to bi
the mate of such as himself. Yet he see;
the girl of the period at her best, and sin
charms him in the direct*ratio to her extra
vagance and Wifely unfitness. Her parlor
are open to him, her dress and jewelry a
coquettishly worn for him as for noble
quarry, her mamma tolerates him more per
haps than if he were young Van Dollah o
Foozleoyle, the whiskyist, and her papa be
li eves in his entire innocuousness, exton d
the pudgy grasp of friendship, and at od
times patronizes him by buying his freshl
daubed canvas or sending him a hopeles
note for collection. He endures all thi
without wincing, for the breath of societ
has become vital in his nostrils. Ho is some
what refined, even a little of a Sybarite; s
what wonder that ho takes kindly to wome
who speak low and dress with an eyo to hal
mo ny of color; who waltz ethereally an
are at their ease with him because there i
no necessity of keeping him at arm'slengtl
He blooms out of an evening-not in
flaming way, for your makeweight know
the value of moderation in dress and tic
and bosom-studs-and enjoye easy chah
and softened lights and dainty voices an
all the other allurements of company parloi
to the fall as much as their owners, and pays
therefor in small talk and general usefnlness.
And h is reward, comes when? he receives
some thick and creamy card o{, invitation to
all the tingling delights of crash floor-cloths
and Straus?' masic, and glaces napolitaines,
and chairs knotted lovingly in pairs with
tho filmiest of handkerchiefs-six hours of
society and bliss. Ho is not a domestic ani?
mal. How can yon expect it of him ia his
hall bed-room in Mrs. Myzer's fashionable
brown-stone mansion in Thirty'levouth
street, not a stone's throw from his loved
avenue? He sleeps therein and dresses
therein-it is chilly and fireless at times
and gets ont of it as soon as he can. His
waking hours fluctuate between the studio
or office-desk and society; but in the rarer
event of his being, in a small way, a person
of leisure, his time is wholly given to tho
one ambition of his life. On Sunday, you
may see him before some stylish church,
blaudly facing the out-coming congregation,
wiih natty gloves and faultless lappels, and
a figure just gently hinting an underlying
corsage, himself pleasing himself, until his
smile meets a ki smile and two radiaut
beings drift alni 0 .vith tho current of socie?
ty, sainting and saluted, each conscious at
heart-if they would but take the trouble to
think it out-that thero is nothing in it,
that their intercourse is a sham, a burlesque
on the true relations of life.
The same couple aro not soon seen toge?
ther again-this phaso of tho society man
being eminently impartial in his attentions
to the sex. Ho cannot lead in any one set,
so ho must needs move over a limited area
in several circles. In this connection an?
other aspect of tho social makeweight's
character looms up; ho is vain of tho large?
ness of his social acquaintance-his New
Year's list is far in tho hundreds, with deni?
zens of tho talismanic avenue numerously
represented, his evenings are pro-engaged
for weeks, and by his own showing no man
is harder worked than bc or moro relieved
by the coming of the Lenten season. Ho
has many acquaintances though few friends,
and his confidences aro apt to be with the
other sex. In fine, as ono who would de?
scribe a gem by its facets must at last call it
by its name, to tho specification of an ave
rago second-rate society man must bo re?
duced to this-that he is nothing more nor
less than what ho is-a society makeweight.
But ono of tho saddest thoughts growing
out of this oxamiuation is thc question that
must inevitably rise in every thinking mind
-what becomes of all the makoweigths? It
is analogous to the old query about the
pins, and equally incapable of answer. Does
he ever grow old? Does he ever marry,
and, if so, in what sphere? Does he ever
accomplish any useful purpose in lifo beside
being a gentleman, or something very liko
it, by virtue of his gentility? Who ever
heard of him as any other than a society
man? Ho and his congeners are numbered
among us by thousands; their faces grow
familiar to us nigh'; after night in tho
"German;" they jam tho academy at the
charity ball; they fliug occasional bouquets
to the blondo sirens of tho stage, and after
a decade or so of this sort of thing they are
not! They hang on to society's skirts for a
time, partaking of its dizzing whirl without
aiding it, till at length tho tired hands re?
lax their hold, and tho society makeweight
drops off into obscurity, perchance that of
a cheerless old bachelorhood of drudgery,
perchance that of a growing family and
slatternly household in some suburb with
its attendant railway agonies, perchance a
directorship in a life assurance scheme, per?
chance into politics. The consolation is
that ho is never missed. That society for
which, in a truly touching and unsparing
devotion, he has given up all, sweeps on its
way and sees himno more.-Hound Table.

AYER'S SARSAPARILLA,
KOR PUR IP Y I II O THE BLOOD.
THE reputation this ex?
cellent medicine enjoys, is
derived from its euros,
many of which aro truly
marvellous. Inveterate
c ii H CH of Scrofulous disease,
where thc system seemed
saturated with corruption,
have been purified and
cured by it. Scrofulous af
'fections and disorders,
which were aggravated by
thc scrofulous contamination until they wcro pain?
fully afflicting, have beon radically cured in such
great numbers in almost every section of the
country, that the public scarcely need to bo in?
formed of its virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and un?
felt tonant of tho organism, undermines tho con?
stitution, and invites the attack of enfeebling cr
fat. 1 'liscases, without exciting a suspicion of its
presence. Again, it seems to breed infection
throughout the body, and then, on somo favorable
occasion, rapidly develop into ono or other of its
hideous forms, cither on the surface or among
tho vitals. In tho latter, tubercles may ho sud?
denly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors
formed in tho liver, or it shows its presenco by
eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcerations on somo
Sart of the bodv. Heneo, tho occasional use of a
ottleof this SARSAPARILLA is advisable, even
when no active symptoms of disease appoar. Per?
sons afflicted with the followingcomplaints, gene?
rally hud immediate relief, and, at length, cure,
by the uso of this SA USA PARILLA: St. Antho?
ny's Fire, Hose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum,
Scald ?lead, Ringicorm, Sore Eyes, Sore Ears,
and other eruptions or visible forms of Scrofulous
disease. Also, in the more concealed forms, as
Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Disease, Fits, Epilepsy,
Neuralgia, and the various Ulcerous affections of
the muscular and nervous systems.
Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases aro
cured by it, though a long time is required for
subduing these obstinate maladies by any medi?
cine. But long continued uso of this medicine
will euro the complaint. Leucorrhcea or Whiles,
Uterine Ulcerations, and Female Diseases, are
commonly soon relieved and ultimately cured by
its purifying und invigorating effect. Minuto di?
rections in each cane are found in our Almanac,
supplied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when
caused by accumulations of extraneous matters
in the Hood, yield quickly toit, as also J.her pom
plaints, Torpidity, Congestion or Inflammation ot
the Liver, and jaundice, when arising, ns they
often do, from tho rankling poisons in tho blood.
This SA USA l'A il IL LA is a great restorer for
the strength and vigor of tho system. Those who
arc Languid and Listless. Despondent, Sleepless,
and troubled with Nervous Apprehensions or
Fears, or any of the affections symptomatic of
Weakness, will find immediate relief and convinc?
ing e vidence of its restorative power upon trial.
