WILL IT PAY TO ADVERTISE ?-f there is any
one thing in ordinar7 business life which has
been more satisfactorily demonstrated than any
other one it is that judicous advertising will pay,
and yet, there is no point upon which the majority
of our business men are so skeptical. Most of
those who advertise, if they fail to have immediate
responses. become Disconnected and consider it is
mere throwing away of money. If every customer
who is influenced by advertisements, we're to an
nounce the fact, at the time purchases are made,
these skeptical ones would have their doubts re-
moved.

TIE THEATRE.-V Vaue Ia Baaet.-The Black Crook
has now become thoroughly familiarized to the
city audiences and though theattraction still con-
tinues it has taken another phase and the question
that now agitates the community is which Of the
leading female danseuses is the most perfect in her
role. The retrenchment question and the depreca-
tion Of the city currency all forgotten in this all
absorbing topic, and the theatre-goers are on the
q,li uipe to decide who has won the laurels 1t is
only by personal observation that correct opin-
ion can be formed, and we advise all interested
parties who wish to take a calm and dispassionate
view of the subject, to visit the Black Crook and
draw their own conclusions, without depending on
the reports Of others. The Black Crook has so
many attractions in the ballet. the scenery, the
singing and the acting that the hours spent at the
theatre are those Of unmixed enjoyment, and will
furnish the beholder with many pleasant memories
in the time to come.

CITATION calls your attention to the fact
Of its being the largest and most popular
Jewelry Association in the United States.
The business il and always has been con
Quoted III the most candid and honorable
manner. Our rapidly increasing trade IL
sure guarantees Of the appreciation Of our
patrons for tnis method Of obtaining rich ,
elegant and costly goods. The sudden
stagDation OF trade in Europe, owing to
the late German War and recent disastrous
financial crisis in England, has caused the
failure Of a large number of Jewelr,
Houses in London and Paris, obliging
them to sell thor goods ut great sicfI fee,
in some instances lessrhan one third the
cost of manufacturing. We have lately
purchased very largely Of these Bankrupt
Goods oil such extremely low prices, thai
we can afford to send away Finer Goods,
and give better chances to draw tho most
valuable prizes than any ether establish
ment doing similar business. OUR AIM
Is TO PLEASE, and we respectfully So
licit your patronage, rs we are niident of
giving the utmost satisfaction. During
the past year we have forwarded a humber
of the most valuable prizes to bill parts OF
the country. Those who patronize us will
receive the full value Of their money, as
no article on our list il worth less than
one Dollar, retail, and there are no blanks.
Parties dealing with us may depend Oh

A Prima Donna Who DespIses Small Talk
and DOtes on Dogs,

| The New York correspondent of the
Baltimore Gazette writes the following
in relation to Miss Clara Louise Kel-
logg, the American prima donna.
1t is not her sweet voice or pretty
face which altogether attracts the atten-
ton and curiosity of those in the secret
of her private domestic life in New
York. With what horror must it oe
confessed that with all her beauty, tai
emit ana youthful facinations, she is q
passionate dog fancier and as passionat e
misanthrope. In a word, she bestows
all the affection which properly belongs
to mankind upon host of horrid dogs,
monkeys, cats, rabbits and parrots, and
accordingly possesses all the necessary
requirements for becoming a confirmed
old maid, much to the chagrin and dis
gust of the large circle of satellites
which revolve around her, attracted by
her youthful charms.
She lives in a small house with her
father away up town, where the names
of the streets run far into the scores,
but the house she occupies is more like
a menagerie, or Barnum's in miniature,
than a private dwelling. When any
one calls, especially if that one be of the
masculine gender, she is invariably en-
gagged and cannot be seen. Her en-
gagements are with the canine and 9TH
er collections before mentioned. On
entering the neatly furnished par
lor your eyes alight upon:several of the
stuffed remains of the dear departed of
her fancy" here and there arranged
upon the hearth-rug, cushions and cor
ners of the room, with their shining
glass eyes starring at you with fixed
artistic gaze, and you feel a sort of I'M
comfortable sensation of swapping at
heels when really nothing need be feared
on that score.
However, it may happen that two
or three fretful little ours III the flesh
will rush at you from their nesting
plades on the arm chairs or sofa. There
is neatly-kept garden in the rear of
the house, and from this quarter con-
tinual uproar illuminated nature reach
es the ear. Here this pretty prima dom
ma passes her leisure hours. The num-
Der OF requirements that may be OBJ
tanned by close study and perseverance,
in short time, is also illustrated In this
young lady's life. She is not yet TWEEN
ty years old, and she is the perfect mis-
tress of five languages, besides the art
of ''stuffing" before mentioned, and the
art of singing, which may safely be
considered test of all her other accom-
plishments.
"Her father is by profession phono-
graphist, and self taught. He is also
the master of several languages, which
he assisted his daughter in acquiring.
The secret Of their success must be
mainly attributed to the fact of their
both being confirmed misanthropes,
who have preferred to spend that time
in the pursu IS of study which others
waste for worthless gossip and small
talk. On the stage Miss Clara Kellogg
has a natural grace and simplicity in
every movement, which do not seem to
be in the slightest degree assumed"

rRnnnEN FLOWERS.

There are some hearts that, like the loving
vine,
Cling to unkindly rocks and ruined towers,
? Spirits that suffer and do not replne-
Patient and sweet as lOwly trodden nOIefs
That from the passeT.s heel arise,
And bring back Odorous breath instead OF
signs.
But there are other hearts that Will rot feel
The lonely love that haunts their eyes and
ears;
That wound fond faith with anger worse than
steel;
IfAnd out Of PHYS spring draw idle tears.
oh, Nsturel ishallit ever be thy will
Ill things with good to mingle, good with i'll?
Why should the heavy foot Of SORROW press
The willing heart of accomplishing love
Meek charity that shrinks not from Distress
Gentleness 10th her tyrants to reprover
Though virtue weep forever and lament.
viii one hard heart turn TO her and repent?
Why should the reed be broken that will bend,
And they that dry the tears in others eyes
Feel their own anguish swelling without end,
Their summer darkened with the smoke of
signs?
Sure, Love to some fair region of his own
Will flee at last, and leave us here alone.
Love weepeth slwsys-weepeth for the past,
For woes that are, for woes that may be-
tide;
Why should not hard ambition weep at last,
Envy and hatred, avarice and pride?
Fate whispers, so low is your lot.
They would be rebels; love rebelleth not.
