THE GIRL TO FIND

The true girl lias to be sought after. She does not parade herself in show goods. She is not fashionable. Generally she is not rich. But oh ! what a heart she has when you find her !—so large and pure, and womanly. When you see it you wonder if those showy things outside are women. If you gain her love, yoixr two thousands are millions. She'll not ask you for a carriage or a first-class house. She'll wear simple dresses and turn them when necessary, with no vulgar magnicate to frown upon her economy. She'll keep everything neat and nice in your sky parlour, and give you such a welcome when you come home that you'll think your power higher than ever. She'll entertain true friends on a dollar, and astonish you with the new thought how little happiness depends on money. She'll make you love home (if you don't you're a brute), and teach you how to pity while you scorn a poor fashionable society that think itself rich, and vainly tries to think itself happy. Now, do not, I pray you say any more, "I can't afford to marry." Go, find the true women. And you can. Throw away that cigar, burn, up that switch-cane, be sensible yourself, and seek your wife in a sensible way.— " Exchange."
