Paw Your small Bills.

+ Money is said to be scarce. New
York dispatches say it is close there.
Several millions Ia currency are ship
ped every week to the West. 1t is
also scarce on Third Street. Currency
is constantly going to the country
Soon this currency must begin to re-
turn to the cities. 1t would be re-
turning nov quite freely If people who
receive it IN exchange for produce
were prompt in paying. their debts.
Instead of using 1t in this way, how
ever, there is disposition to hoard
to keep the green backs for while to
look at them. This is the cause of
the present scarcity of money. The
same cause operates to large ex-
tent in the city. Here there
| is scare about the scarcity
OF money. and those who have en-
gagements In the future are disposed
to hold on to the money that comes
into their hands. Thus creditors who
have small bills are put off from day
to day. This increases the scare:
&" 1t is impossible to collect money"
is the general remark. Said banker

small bills floating about the city,
and would make money comparative
ly easy" IF one man will pay, that
will enable another to pay, and so on
to the end of the chapter. L
There is plenty of money, if people
would use what they have got in pay
ing their debts. Pay your small bills,
and thus the means will be furnished
for paying large ones.-Csn. Gazette.
The Gozette's advice is so sensible
and practical that we hope it will be
generally followed. It would astonish
many liabilities a single five dollar
bill, kept in active circulation for one
week. would liquidate. As free cir
culation of the blood is essential to
animal health, so the free circulation
of money is necessary to the financial
health. When people begin to hoard,
business stagnates and values become
unsteady. Pay your small bills.

Don,t Freeze the Littla Girls.

The advice contained in the follow
ing paragraphs from a communication
in a Chicago paper, is SO applicable to
this season of the year, and the fool
ish notions of careless parents in this
as in that latitude, that we call especial
attention to it. We trust every mother
will read it and at once take steps to
protect her little girls from the dan
gers to which they are now exposed
by foolish dressing:
In these cold, blewy, snowy days,
| am panied to see the efforts of fool
ish parents to freeze their little girls.
1t is an outrage. Girls should be
dressed just as comfortably as boys.
On the contrary, the poor little shiv-
erlug things are sent out into the
streets, with their heads comfortably
protected, thick shaWls around their
shoulders, which comparatively need
no protection, their skirts standing
out at an angle of forty five degrees,
and their poor little drum stick legs
as unprotected from the blasts as the
legs Of turkey hanging in meat stall.
And thus we pack off these little girls
to school, with their big heads to be
crammed full of learning, at the ex-
pense of their legs, which, at tender
age, are OF more. importance than
their heads. Asa general rule par
ents should devote their entire atten-
ton to their little girls legs and let

And all this time you take your
great, strapping, tough balks of bows,
who are never cold, and are twice al
strong and hardy as your girls, and |
wrap them up and fit them out IN |
thick wooden trousers and drawers
and heavy top boots. The result is,

desire to haye'his name used in con-
neetion with a Cabinet position, and
that the feeling for STANTON as Sec
rotary of State is growing stronger.
The military, in particular, favor him,

Secretary would buster into war,
they furnish the best reason in the
world Why Secretary STANTON should
