WHERE CARE SHOULD BE USED. Old chaps should be careful how they write to young girls. One of them wrote to a young lady in Philadelphia and in the course of his letter he used these words: "I am yours to do with as you like, I and all tha?I have is yours to do with as you like. " Then be went off and died, as he ought to. ' On this the young woman has ijeen besieging the courts of Philadelphia to consider that as part of the gentleman's will. Fortunately for the heirs a hard-headed Judge has decided that the words were like -those of Job, allegorical merely; that the old man merely expressed ex-pressed a temporary sentiment and did not intend it should last, not only through his life but beyond. But men should be careful, because there is na telling what a sentimental Judge might do with a passage of that kind. The fact that the young lady did not do with the old man as. she liked in his lifetime, but that she thought she would do him after he was dead, is sufficient suffi-cient evidence that the old chap was a bad judge of human nature and did not know when he was being played.
