Advice To Young Men

A lady who signs herself " A Martyr to Late Hours," ofFors ihe following sensible suggestions to young men : Deár gentlemen between the ages of " eighteen and forty-five," listen to a few words of gratuitous remark. - Whenyou make a social cali of an evening, on a young lady, go away at ■ a reasonable hour. Say you come at eight o'clock, an hour and a half is certainly as long as any of the most fascinating of you in conversation can, or rather ought to, desire to use his charms. Two hours, indeed, can be very pleasantly spent, vvith music, chess or other games to lend variety; but, kind sirs, by no means stay longer. - r Make shortcr calis and come oítener. A girl - that is a sensible, true-hearted girl - will enjoy it better and valueyour acquaintance more. Just conceive the agony of a girl who, well-knowing the feelings of father and mother upon the subject, hears the clock strike ten, and yet must be compelled to sit on the edge of her chair, in mortal terror, lest papa should put his oft repeated threat in execution, that of coming down, and inviting a gentleman to breakfast. - And we girls understand it all by experience, and know what it is to dread the prognostic ol displeasure. In such cases a sigh of relief generally accompanies the closing of the door behind the gallant, and one don't get over the feeling of trouble till safe in the arma of Morpheus. Even then sometimos the dreains are troubled with somo phantom ol an angry father and dis treseed (for all parties) mether ; and all because a young man will make a longer cali than he ought to do. Wow, young gentlemen friends, I'll teil you what we giils will do. For an hour and a half we will be most irresistibly charming and fascinating; then beware, monosyllabic responses will be all you need expect. And if, when the limita have been passed, a startling query ehall be heard coming down stairs : " Isn't it time to elose up ?" you may eonsider it a righteous punishment, and taking your hat meekly depart, a sadder, and it is to be hoped, a wiser man. Do not get angry, but the nest time you come be carefnl to keep within just bounds. We want to rise early these healthy mornings, and improve each " sbining hour " ; but when forced to be up at snch late hours at night, exhausted nature will speak, and as a natural consequence with the utmost speed in dressing, we can barely get down to breakfast ie time to escape a reprimand from papa, who don't believe in -beaux - just as' though he never was young - and a mild, reproving glance from mamma, who understands a little better a poor daughter's feelings, but must stil! disapprove outwardly, to keep up appearance. And now, young men, think about these things, and don't - for pity's sake don't - throw down your paper with a " pshaw !" but remember the eafe side of ten.
