~ Moths seldom work in cotton
fabrics, but they will riddle furs and
WOODEN garments. We learn from IA
gentleman who has experience in
the matter that the best method of
keeping off these destructive vermiG
is to enclose the articles i'll IA cotton
sack like pillow case, tie it tightly
with strong cotton cord and hang
it at the top of room. The best
place for the purpose is an open at
tic, where nail can be driven into
ioist or rafter. What is required
for preserving furs is that they will
be secure from moisture and sur
rounded by something that the moth
will not penetrate. This condition
is met with by hanging them near
the top of room; and the second
by enclosing them with cotton c!otn.
The moth takes an apparent dellgnI
in cutting its way through "ooLen
fabrics. and even a casing OF leather
is of no avail in the way OF pro'ecCloh'

A BEAUTIFUL SENTDIENT.-Sor-

more genial. And III our sorrow we
love and trust our friends more ten
derly, and the dead becomes dearer
to us. And just as the stars shine
out in the night, so there are blessed
faces that look at uS in our grief.
though before their features were
fading from our recollections. Suf-
fering let no man dread it too much,
because it is better for him, and it
will help to make him sure of being
mortal. 1t is not in the bright, hap
py days, but only IN the solemn
night, that other worlds are to be
seen shining in the long, long dis
tance. And it is in sorrow, the
night of the soul, that we see the
furthest, and know ot selves natives
of infinity and sons aud daughters

Humors of Advertisine

The Stamford Conn Advocate is the
medium through which the faithful Sarah
exposes the vices Of her faithleas swain, in
the following words:
To THE PUBLIC Whereas, nv husband
Edward H. Jones, has falsely advertised
that have left his bed and board, and that
be will pay no debts of my contracting,
etc., this is to inform the public that the
aforesaid Edward II. Jones has neither
bed nor board for me to leave, he having
been living at the expense of my father
and further, under pretence of procuring
money to pay his way TO Birmingham,
Conn, he borrowed dollar of my father,
and with that paid for his lying advertise
ment against ne, and even ter that das-
tardly act, he took all the money l had, and
borrowed every cent in my mothers pos
session and left the town.
For the past three months he has been
kept from nakedness and starvation by the
exertions of myself and relatives he
squandeTed in dissipation all the money
his Unborn laziness would allow him to ear. j..
The scamp need not have advertised that
he would pay no debts of my contracting,
for the public well know that he would not
pay even his own.
He is lazy, ungrateful, loafng scoun-
drel-not content with living at the ex-
panse of my relatives and borrowing their
money, he publishes an outrageous lie
His bed and board indeed--if left to him,
his bed would be nothing but board, and
L should not be much surprised il the bed
ho dies in were made of boards with a
strong cross beam overhead.

How to Advertise

Whatever your goods, wares or mer-
chandise may be, remember that system,
perseverance and success go hand in hand
II you are to introduce an article Of value
or necessity to vould-be customers, it can
not be done by single effort, or in sin
gle medium. There are many who, regard
ing one trial sufficient, fold their hands af-
ter its accomplishment. and wonder that
so little satisfaction is attained thereby
In such cases the fault is invariably with
the advertiser. He must keep himself be-
fore the people, not only this month or this
year, but constantly, or when the season
for his business comes around. Pursuing
this course, success is as certain as the
revolution of the earth. Above ALL don't
be spasmodic, but regarding this like any
other branch of business, treat it as such.
Every prominent advertiser will testify to
the truth OF these remarks, and furthermore
they will never do to stop. Constant effort
is required here as elsewhere, and they
who fail to observe the rule will learn it's
truthfulness by sad experience and at their
own cost. Never withdraw from the eyes
of customers the best and most effective
sign you can put there. If you do
will be attracted by that of al otbef I'D
500 rget you and your wares.

Working for the ..Home Press. :,

Last year we endeavored to impress up
on the merchants the fact that they owed
it as duty to their local papers to use
| their influence in their behalf, with the
wholesale trade of the great market cities,
when making their purchases. A single
suggestion from q large buyer would all
ways assure to his "Home Journal" the
| advertising patronage of the merchant who
supplied him, and this patronage would be
reflected from the columns Of the interior
press, in the way Of enlargement and a
prosperity that would do much to increase
the trade of the town in which his goods
are to be ofereI, and keep it prominent be-
fore the people. Our article was moi in the
slightest degree needed at home, but we
are glad to know that it attracted attention
elsewhere, and that the merchants of other
Mississippi cities acted upon the sugges-
ZION, to the great prof of valued cotempo-
raries.
The merchants of Enterprise, Osvka.
Holly Springs. Oxford and Grenada. make
it point of business to solicit the adger-
tisement of each house they purchase from,
for their local papers and the result is,
that these journals are enjoying a wonder
ful degree Of prosperity. One merchant of
Summil-so says the Times-has influence
ed over $500 worth of Northern Advertis-
ing to its columns, and obtained fifty dol
lars worth of foreign subscriptions for it,
and this is done without any expense what
ever to the solicitor Such men as that
build up their cities, and build up mar
ket for the goods they purchase and we
regret to be forced to the admission, that
during an arduous campaign as editor and
publisher Of Daily, Weekly and Tri-Week-
ly papers in this city, which have Dever
missed single issue for nearly four years,
we cannot chronicle or recall an instance,
In which an effort has been made abroad,
or in our behalf, by single merchant of
Aberdeen, or single advertisements infu-
enced to our columns by any one of them.
We are we'll aware that the merchants of
Aberdeen enjoy reputation in the eastern
cities, such as few can claim and we know
that their influence, which would have
been exerted without the slightest tax or
cost to them, would, in the four years, have
been worth eight or ten thousand dollars to
their town paper, every dime of which
would have been indirectly expended in
their behalf; and we can't help thinking
that we have deserved it as much as any
Journal in the Slate, and should have had
it.-A6erdeep Examiner.
We ask Pulaski and Giles county mer-
chants to adopt this plan in behalf the CIrI-
ZEN.
