SUcu cases as the following are as COM
mon as can be, we would say Us common
as dirt, but in this city that would scarcely
be true: A gentleman doing business in
Boston, while travelling in the cars year
or two since, took copy Of the London
Punch with which to relieve the monotony
of tedious journey; and having finished
reading its well stocked columns Of "fact,
fun and fancy" took to reading the adver-
tisements. AT last, in n remote corner.
he discovered an announcement, about
half an inch in length, which told him
where an article that he dealt largely in
could be procured in England; and being
one of the shrewd, sharp kind Of men, he
wrote the parties for price list, the result
of which was that he sent them an order
amounting to several hundred pounds
sterling, and during the year his partner
visiting Europe, left another large order,
and they still remain good customers. All
this was the result OF halfan inch adyer.
tisement Who will say that il does not
pay to ADVERTISED Boston Transcript.

TIE New LErHE-A new annsthetic agent
has been discovered in England by DR..
Richardson. It is called the bichloride Of
methylem. This agent differs from chloro-
form in the rapidity with which it produces
anGsthesia, in the prolonged insensibility
which results from It's inhalation, and in the
facility with which complete anesthesia
may be re.established by the reception Of
very small quantity Of the vapor when
the effect begins to diminish. There is
said TO be no secondary excitement in the
action Of this agent, no convulsive move
