DvbSvidi VTk Om Into Society and Are
- MmU HUrnUi Tfcereb.
The subject of going Into society to
gether is one of endless discussion be
tween men and their wives; these favor
ing, pressing, insisting on it; thoso op
posing, ridiculing, protesting against it.
Women often carry their point by de
claring that if their husbands will not go
out they will not, either. A just or gen
erous man is averse to keeping his wife
at home simply because he considers
social entertainments of any and every
kind stupid and disagreeable. He knows
that she deliglits in them, and that for
her to relinquish them is a positive sac
rifice. There is no moro reason why she
bhould stay away than why ho should go;
anH, therefore, he goes, but goes reluc
tantly, w ith ill will, and, as It were, by
compulsion.
It may 6eem singular that she should
permit him to, knowing as she does how
hateful the thing is. It seems downright
selfish in her and women are rarely,
selfish but she believes that she cannot
afford to release him; that her frequent
ing society without him is the beginning
of their separation, of their leading dis
tinct lives, of their steady divergence.
Her belief may not be correct, but it is
sincere. Hence is she not warranted in
maintaining her josition to the last?
At any rate, she maintains it, though
not without great cost, greater often than
she realizes. Her husband resents more
and more his dragooning into society.
I lo never puts on his dress suit, or orders
tho carriage for that purpose, without a
feeling of inward bitterness of his wife's
exactingness, of his submission to a
wrong; and the feeling finally ' produces
liabitual dissatisfaction and cynicism.
His wife Lj unconsciously bringing about
what she is trying to avoid settled dis
content with her and the conjugal con
dition. It were better she should let him
obey his propensity than thwart it thus;
lor alienation would be slower with free
dom than with fetters.
What a deal of mischief is society, fri
volous, hollow, insignificant society, cap
able of doing! Tho dragooned husband
feels that he is a social impostor; that he
abuses hospitality by partaking of it in
perverse spirit. He is in no mood to en
tertain or be entertained. He is bored to
death, and his countenance shows it. He
yawns behind hand or handkerchief, and
for the moment fairly despises his wife,
noticing across the room her animated
manner and obvious gratification. His
look and air and gait are funereal. -If
lie were burving a friend ho would, he
fancies, feel more -cheerful. Stealing
Into a corner, ever and anon, to glance
furtively at his watch, he thinks that it
must have stopped. Has there ever be
fore been so long an evening? His wife
indicates that she is about to leave; but
he knows what that means, and resigns
himself to another leaden-footed hour.
Everything must have an end; finally
ho departs, anil his face for the mo
ment is flushed with pleasure, imme
diately dispelled by the remembrance
that there are to bo five evenings more
of similar boredom within the coming
week- He dreams of wliat ho has under
gone and must undergo in the torture
chambers of society; his sleep is broken
and feverish; ho rises in tho morning
despondent and irritable. His wife may
dimly suspect the cause; but 6he lacks
tho "intel licence, ierhaps the magna
nimity, to relieve him of his onerous obli
gation, la tho end he will lx very likely
to throw it off, and it will be accom
panied by r.o little of liis old affection
and sympathy.
The women are few who would make
good their declaration of - surrender
ing society if their husbands should
flatly refuse to escort them. They think
they would, and for a while they might
abstain; but the enticement is too great
to be long resisted. First, hey will go
out alone occasionally; then frequently;
at last regularly. Women who have
dragooned their lieges for several seasons,
and then acquitted them, may run the
risk of losing the early place occupied in
their hearts (is not such loss mutual and
unavoidable, with most couples, in any
circumstances?); but they get on far more
comfortably.
Men love freedom above everthing;
and when thej have it they are more
amiable and patient than when it is in
any way curtailed. " Husbands who have
been exceedingly disagreeable at home,
so long as they have felt constrained to
discharge social duties in their own per
sons, have behaved quite decently after
turning over those duties entirely to their
partners. The average woman gets rid
of her romance and sentiment by five or
six years of connubial experience (the
first year will answer for the average
man), and prefers domestic peace and
toleration to the cherishment of the lof
tiest ideals. Junius Henri Browne in

A Small EeeMBlit
A little boy whose parents were al

his presence was constantly reminded
of the expense of everything until
the early lessons of domestic econ
omy were sunk deep In his souh" ! When
he was 3 years old some friends 'visited
the family, having with them a rear
old baby. This was such a - fund- of
delight that the small boy's parents re
marked that they should like such a
baby in their own household, &nd they
looked at him to see how be would take
the suggestion. What was their- sur
prise when he answered gravely :
"You know you couldn't afford .it!"

EXECtfTIVC WORK.
Dow It I Divided Into Department to
the United States.
The great moss of work imposed
upon tho executive power of tho gov
ernmentembracing so many distinct
subjects and requiring so many thou
sands of agents to perform must be
arranged and treated in an orderly and
systematic manner. To expect the
president to give it his close personal
attention and directly superintend the
doings of each agent would bo absurd.
The magnitude and diversity of the
work demand its separation into parts,
and the general supervision or manage
ment of each part must bo intrusted to
a separate officer.
On this business basis and in accord
ance with tho design of tho constitu
tion congress "has divided the work
among seven executive departments,
each in charge of a general oliicer, or
head of department, known respect
ively as the secretary of state, tho sec
retary of tho treasury, the secretary of
war, the attorney general, the post
master general, tho secretary of the
navy and tho secretary of tho interior;
and the work of each department is
still further subdivided and distributed
among bureaus and divisions and
minor oflices, in charge of lesser heads
or chiefs, designated as commissioners,
superintendents, directors and by vari
ous other general or special titles. An
executive department, then, properly
means one oi the grand divisions of
government work boldly marked out
or suggested by the express provisions
of the constitution.
These grand divisions readily ar
range themselves. The sovereign re
lations of the republic with foreign
powers, and its official intercourse
with the governments of the states at
homo may be regarded as one distinct
grand division; accordingly we have
the department of state. Tho coinage,
currency, revenue and general fiscal
alr'airs suggest another great branch of
work ; hence we have the department
of the treasury. Tho mention of
armies suggests work that in time of
trouble is likely to tax the energy of a
separate division; thus we very ap
propriately havo a department of war.
The prosecution of offenses against
the United States, and other judicial
matters wherein the interests of the
republic are concerned constitute a
general division, represented by the
department of justice. Tho postal
service, as one of the most intricate
and important branches of government
work, certainly forms another grand
division ; therefore we havo the post
ollice department Maritime protec
tion, like tho military or land defense,
forms a separate division; and thus
we havo the department of the navy.
The various matters of domestic con
cern not covered in these other de
partments but contemplated by the
constitution, such as tho census, public
lands, patents and odds and ends, may
bo conveniently grouped into another
general division; and thus we have
the very miscellaneous, yet not mis
named, department of the interior.
To some of these executive depart
ments are intrusted matters which, on
their face at. least, do not strictly be
long to the- grand division to which
they havo been assigned by law. For
instance, the weather bureau is a bu
reau of the war department; the work
being intimately connected with the
peaceful interests of agriculture and
commerce, it is very generally de
manded that it should be taken from
military control and placed elsewhere.

Railroad Vandalism.
I. read with some amusement re
cently a letter in The Pall Mall
Gazette, headed "What We May Ex
pect," which took for its text a para
graph which announced that a rail
way is to be run through the pass of
Glencoe. The writer of the letter sar
castically declared that "Melrose
abbey, having being roofed over witl
slates and rendered somewhat presentable--,
with a new coat of stucco, has
recently been converted into a young
men's reading room and mechanics'
institute. The abbey is lighted by an
installation of six Swan and Edison
burners, so that there is no longer any
necessity to visit it by the pale moon
light" Still further, the writer an
nounced that "Burns' cottage had been
mlled down to make room for a beer
louse to be erected on the site." The
old proverb says that many a true
word is spoken in jest, and I am sorry
to see in the Scotch papers a paragraph
referrincr to Burns' cottage at A vt
which goes far to confirm t-no Pro
verb: The whole of the contents of
the house ' and of "Ailoway's aultl
haunted kirk" are advertised" for sale
at-an upset jprice of 1.200; so lhat in
the event of none of toe innumerable
admirers of the poet coming to the
rescue, the various relics accumulated
at Ayr will be scattered. The trencher
from which he ate his kail, the chair
in which he sat, the bowl from which
he "supped' his parritch," the table at
which he wrote all are to be sold.
We cold Southrons are sometimes ac
cused of want of enthusiasm and jioetio
appreciation; but, on the Tftole, I
venture to think we should pot per
mit such a holocaust, as this in the
case of relics of our leading poets,
simply and solely because their . exi
tion did not pay expenses. 1 suppose
in these harq times U is ps well to, be
canny and careful ; hut surely there
are plenty of Scotchmen who arc both,
and yet might be able to spai-o or sub
scribe a few hundred pounds to pre
serve the relics of a poet whom most
Scotchmen regard with a feeling akin
to adoration, in the town whevp ho,
was born. I should! riot be surprised,
if the upshot should' be that the Liurns
souvenirs will go to the'VJnited States

Dr. Scott, of Greenock, used to tell
of a sailor who camo to be married,
but when asked if he would take tho
woman to be his wife, looked blank
and said: "I would like to know first
what you are going to say to she." At
another time, when the jroman was
asked if she would obey, but did not
answer, tho man also a sailor ex
claimed, "Leave that to me, sir."
In those days people that felt sleepy
during the sermon used, as now in
Germany, to shake off drowsiness by
standing up; but poor human nature
made this at times an occasion of dis
play. At Old Monkland a man who
hau on a rather gaudy vest stood up
more than once, and threw back his
coat apparently to let his vest be seen
Mr. Bower, the minister, at length
said: "Noo. John, ye had better sit
doou. We have a seen your braw
waistcoat"
It was to Mr. Bower that the grave
diL'ircr onco said: Iradosvery dull
the noo. I haen a buried a icevin'
cratur for three weeks."
The pconlo seem to have had a dis
like to sermons beinjr read. They
used to say: "lloo can we mind the
minister's sermon if he canna mind it
himselY'
What are we to think of the lady
who sent to her minister, Mr. Risk, of
Dalserf, a polite message that "ho
should clean his teeth," and received
tho answer that "she should scrape
her tongue?"
When his people sent a deputation
requesting him to tell them more in
his sermons about rciiouiioiui' their
own righteousness, he tartly replied:
"It is the first time I heard that you
had any righteousness to renounce."
Mr. Tnom, of Govan, maintained a
great warfare against the Glasgow
magistrates, une day, wmie ne was
standing with the provost in tho street,
a ragged urchin came up begging,
and was sternly driven away by the
provost, who had himself risen from
nothing. Mr. Thom interposed, and
said: "Iley, laddie, there's a penny for
you. Ye'll maybe provost of Glas
gow yourself yet"
One of the magistrates saw him one
day riding a good horse, and said:
"You're better than your Master, Mr.
Thom, for ho rode on an ass." Mr.
Thom retorted: "We would bo will
ing enough to rido on asses, too. but
they're not to be got nowadays.
They've made them all magistrates."

A High Rata of Interest.
A novel system of money lending is
being practiced in many large down
town business houses, and, though
done on "mutual benefit" plan, the
interest levied would put the ordinary
pawnbroker to the blush. The em
ployes of a large establishment, em
ploying perhaps twenty-five or fifty
clerks, form a "mutual benefit asso
ciation." For two months each employe
pays to the treasurer 1 cent a day, and
this forms the lending fund on which
the whole system is founded.
In the larger houses, where the
salaries are paid monthly, the clerks
often find themselves in the middle of
the month without the necessary funds
to carry them through. Then they
borrow from the treasurer, say $5, and
until the loan is paid they are expected
to hand to the treasurer 1 cent for every
dollar borrowed, and at the same time
to give to the treasurer an order on the
casnier for tho amount of money they
havo borrowed.
The clerk who borrows the money
does not, of course, feel the payment
of the small amount of interest which
is collected daily, and even when he
returns the loan at the end of the
month he does not realize that he has
paid interest at the rate of S65 per
cent Of course each month the
arrount of money in tho hands of the
treasurer increases until, &t the end of
the year, he has much more than
enough to cover the demands of the
clerLs for loans,
Then ho sets aside a certain amount
as a fund, and the balance he divides
into equal parts, to be paid to the
clerks lis dividends. This is done once
a your. Tho result is obvious. The
cL-rk who is saving and apportions his
salary to his necessities has no need of
becoming a borrower; that is, in the
year he only pays to the association
nis dues, amounting to $3.63, or 1 cent
a day, and yet he draws as a dividend
his share of the exorbitant interest
that his impecunious fellow e-lerks
havo paid monthly. pw York Her
