Advertising makes a Man Keen.

The Montreal Advertiser, having given a
sketch of some of the most successful men of
the time, who have won their fortunes through
columns of newspapers, has the following;
Remember old Solomons who made such
noise with his Balm OF Gilead, famous stuff it
was, pure brandy spiced. Dearly the Dowa-
gers loved it, although it cost guinea bottle.
Solomons retired to splendid mansion on the
lower part of the Thames and then there is
a capital story told Of him.
His ground were show place, and some
officers CHARTERED at Canterbury, went over to
see them. Solomons asked them in, and he
courteously showed his pictures and articles of
veriu and finally led them to the parlour, and
asked what wine they should like. Empty
and flippant like most of their generation, they
called for Balm Of Glead lit was brought,
and some ten bottles drank among them, they
rose to go, and Solomons standing in the door
way presented his bill-l0 bottles Balm Of Gil
cad, fl0 los. Great was the surprise of the
bucks, they protested they wese invited to
drink wine, and called for what they liked as
well. Gentlemen, said the memorable Solo,
mons, give away my wine, but sell my
Balm of Gilead.' They had to pay il, and the
Gentiles had little reason to mock the Jew,
that day.

Curious FACTS CONCERNING DYSPEPSIA
The effect of mental disquietude in producing
this prevalent complaint, is far greater than is
supposed. 1t is well known that persons in
good health, of sound digestive organs, who
take plenty Of exercise, and are free from anxi-
ETY., may eat almost anything, and in quantities
that would kill those in different circumstances.
In reference to this point, DIR. Brigham, an
English medical writer, observes - We do
not find dyspepsia prevalent in countries where
the people do eat most enormously. Trav-
ellers in Siberia say that the people there often
eat forty pounds of food in one day. Admiral
Scripschoff saw Siberian eat, directly after
breakfast, twenty-five pounds of boiled rice,
with three pounds of butter. But dyspepsia
Is not common disease in Siberia. We do
not learn from Captain Parry, or Captain
Lyon, the Arctic travellers, that their friends,
the Esquimaux, are very nervous and dyspep-
tic, though they individually eat ten or twelve
pounds of solid food per day, washing it down
with gallon or so of train oil. Captain Lyon
was, 10 be sure, little concerned for deli
cate young lady Esquimaux, who ate her can
dies, wicks and all, yet he does not allude to
her inability to digest Them

A Lady Philanthropist.

Mrs. Ames was sitting in her front room
when she saw Mrs. Armstrong approaching-

est in all reforms ard benevolent enterprises,

for example, at the boy in the street. He has
hole in his elbow, and his clothes are all COW
cred with mud. presume his mother belongs
to some of these benevolent associations, and
hasn't time to attend to her own children.
Mrs. Ames asked her visitor, rising with
Indignation, do you mean 10 insult me-

course not, what makes you think sol

you to say to that .
"Sayl why nothing. Only IT'S unfortunate
for the boy that he wasn't born Patago-
man.
Mrs. Armstrong, without reply, swept out
Of the room with the majesty Of queen.
She is still canvassing for the sewing circle
IN behalf of the youthful Patagonians, while
George Washington Jackson Armstrong is
permitted to roam at will through the streets,
