Soon SO said all Maysville, except
Miss Smith, who had hitherto been
quite successful in palming off her
Earthquakes styles up0nTthe villagers,
and who nov found her OCCUPATION
"What shall 7 do? ? saidshe, wiring
ing her hands in despair, to a sympa-
thizing, gentle soul, who CHANGED to
be a member of Mrs. Wells club.
81 cannot say, unless you take De
morests MOUthiy Magazine, when you
will be likely to find suggestions to
4 help you out of your difficulties, as /
most always do in my own case. Miss
| Smith, you had better think of it.n
The result of this counsel was that
! Miss Smith sent in her subscription.
Early one bright Monday morning
the good people of Maysville remarked
that a marvellous change had come
over the millinery and dress-making
establishment they h9doflate ignored.
"HOw beautifully you have fitted
up, Miss Smith" said her friend, who
had been invited to take a look within.
1--WE started anew as a branch OF
Nine. DemOrest's Emporium of Fash
ions, the headquarters of D~e1qOrest'S
Monthly. I'm very thankful to you
for mentioning the Magazine to me,
for you see it has helped me out of my
trouble"
"How did you prosper ?" asked the
same friend, some time later in the
month, dropping in" to see if Miss
Smiths hopes had been realized.
"Oh, i never did so well! Why,
can work with so much satisfaction
to myself and every one of my custO-
mers, and have such a variety oil
beautiful styles that even the ladies
from the city, boarding hereabouts,
find all they require"
Time fitted swiftly by, and again
the sewing-circle had met at Widow
Mays.
"What a vast improvement there
has been in our village since we have
taken Demorest's MOnthLyv ?" exclaim-
ed Mrs. Brown, during a pause in the
conversation. "Mrs. Hart. did YOU
take Mrs. Wells advice and subscribe
for the village paper?"
Yes, and l must say, it was Just as

solved never to do without il again.
He thinks it saves him a great deal
more than his false notion of economy
ever did"
"That is my opinion of the Maya
zine. Besides we are certainly all
brighter, and better, and happier, and
wiser through its infiuance. 1t is the
general remark There is now one
thing f6h which Il htvea great ambi-
ton. That is, to make up a club large
enough to get, as apremium, an organ
for the church. / have already set

copy ofthe Monthly to convince them
ofits merits 1t speaks foFitself, and

their appreciation as to set their
names down upon my list immedi-
ately. Will any of you aid me?n
Every voice chimed in assent. AS
women always do when they have a
pet project a heart, they went to work
with willard energy, and found their
task so easy, that in a few days the
entire subscription was IN its journey
