shaved. On entering and casting his eye
a-ound the room, he perceived that the
barber drovea double trade of toDsor and

"Shave, sir" said the barber to his Gus.
toner, whose face sufficiently indicated the
object Of his visit.
Jeemes made no reply, but drawing him
self up to lofty height, proceeded, 10
the attorneys fashion, TO iHterrogatc the
barber as follows:
'Sir, you are barbeff'
''Yes, sir. Have a shsveP'
"And do you also keep this oyster eellar1
"Yes, sir. Have auy oystersl"

rise to the most horrible suspicious. II "a
a serious thing to submit ones head to the
man ipulations OF a stranger, but If You
can answer Inc couple of questions to my
satisfaction, l should like to be shaved"
The barber said he would try,

you shave with the oyster kuifei"
"No, cir" said the barber, smiling.

rogstor, sand remember that you are un-

serious business"
The barber stared.

oysters with your razor"
"No, sir" exclaimed the barber, indig-
nantly, amid roar Of laughter from the
by ISLANDERS.
"Then shave mo-" said Jeemes, throw
himself into the chair and untying his
neckclcth with the air of a man who has
mistaken confidence in hsman nature.

CURE FOR DoGs.-Wiliam B. Barnes,
Davenport, Iowa, recommends a cure for
blight In pear trees, which we should
Ike to see universally adopted. We think
IL 1t did not cure the pear blight, 1t might
rid the country of another blight ten times
more destructive than all the diseases that
ever crept into pear orchards. The RENE
dy, which he says proved Cfrectual upon
thirty years. trial, is to dig a hole down
among the roots ofthe pear tree, and bury
dead dog therein. He mentions one old
tree thus treated, which recovered and
took on vigorous growth, and bore a full
crop every year after. ( We have no d oubt
of the truth of this statement, and hope the
remedy will be applied TO every pear tree
in America. The sooner it Is done, the
more profitable 1t will prove to thousands
of farmers who areproyented from keeping
sheep In consequence of the worthless
ours in the country, which may now be
appropriated TO some profitable purpose

NJ. EDMUND ABOUT made these sensible
remarks recently in one of the Partisan
newspaper: 81 do not know whether you
are like me, but after / have been only
three days idle find 1t inexpressibly hard
TO set to work again; 1t seems to me my
brain is rusty. Besi6es, sfe' idleness one
has debts 10 pay, which make work
twice as hard again. There is nothing
more ungrateful and more melancholic in
the world than to work to pay debts. l
knew writ 1r ofgreat talents aud charm
ing fellow every way, but weak and lazy.
He became celebrated; every body ordered
work from him, aud everybody paid him
In advance. He got so deeply in debt that
he did not work at all. What was the use
OF his workingi Everything he might
have done, even had he written dozen
masterpieces, would not have put sou
into his pocket. He owed to Tom, Dick,
and Harry everything he had in his head,
even germs of ideas. He became disheart-
ened, and died."
