gives the following reasonable rules for
young men commencing business: .f
The world estimates men by their sue
cess in life-and, by general consent sue.
cess is evidence of superiority.
Never, under any circumstances, assuuae
responsibility you can avoid consistently
with your duty to yourself and others.
Base all your actions upon a principle
of right /; preserve your integrity of char
acter, and in doing this, never reckon the
cost. Fsa-.-- essa3
Remember that self interest is more
likely to warp your judgement than all
other circumstances combined therefore,
look well to your duty, when your interest
is concerned. = u1EJs11o
Never make money at the expense of
yonr reputation.
two, avoid the latter; n mean man is uniz
versally despisea, but public favor is step
ping stone to rcferment-therefor, gem
erous feelings should be cultivated
Say but little think much-and do
more.
Let your expenses be such as to le6t9
balance in your pocket Ready rn6alf
is a friend in need.
Keep clear out of the laH; fof. eeeu q
you gain your csss, yod kfs geksfAlly 4
loser of money -.--..ia.
Avoid borrowing or lending.
Wine drinking and cigar smoking are
bad habits. They impair the MUD Gnd
pocket, and lead to waste Of time.

"Barhara Fritchie's work is DER,
The rebel rides his raids no more"

A GooD JoKE.-Many years ago,
when organs first came In use, worthy
old gentleman was pastor of a church
where they had just purchased an organ.
Not far from the church was large town
pasture, where great many cattle grazed,
and among them large bull. One hot
Sabbath, Mr.. Bull came up near the
church grazing and just as the Rev. Mr..
B was in the midst of his sermon
boo WOO WOO went the bull.
The parson paused, looking up at the
singing seats, with grave face, said:
II would thank the musicians not to
tune their instruments during service it
annoys me very much"
The people stared, and the minister
went on.
"Boo WOO woo," went the bull again, as
he drew little nearer the church.
The parson paused again and addressed
the choir.
81 really wish the singers would not
tune their instruments while [ am preach
ing"
The congregation Uttered, for they
knew what the real cause of this disturb
ance was.
1uS OAu PdlooI "0iG oH dSdlH, anu hO
had just about started good, when boo
WOO WOO" came from Mr.. Bull.
The minister paused once more and ex-
claimed

gallery not to tune their instruments dur

quest Mr. L that he will not tune his
double bass organ while L am preaching" !"

Barbara Fritchie's House.

The Frederick, Maryland, Examiner
says: The last remnant of the old house
where Barbara Fritchie lived and toiled
has been removed, and laborers are now
employed in digging some ten feet below
the original foundation, as if to root out
the spot of earth upon which it stood A
few days more and the tourist, the patriot,
and the poet will have pointed to them the
muddy waters of Carroll Greek as where
once stood the weird home of the faithful
defender of her country's flag. 1t seems
to have been the determination Of our city
authorities to erase from the memory of
man that the "Fritchie woman" ever lived,
and guided by this desire, the first step was
to destroy the house in which she had lived,
and where to Stonewall jackson:
tsShoot if you must, this old grey head,
But spare your country's flag, she said.''
And to the accomplishment of this object
they turned ali their genius and ability
with which nature has SO literally gifted
them. They first passed an ordinance TO
widen and straighteal Carroll Greek; they
then decided that the Fritchie house ~~as
in the line of the proposed Improvement,
and agreed to "Wipe the damned thing
out"
oBarhara Fritchies work is DER,
The rebel rides his raids no more
Yet the spirit was predominant, and to
crafty the hatred of the house rendered
immortal by the pen of the poet, they have
in Strengthening the creek absolutely
made three sharp angles to strike the point
at which they aimed. Sagacious men !!
Know they not that E'the blood of the mar
tyrs is the seed of the church," The name
of Barbara Fritchie long shall live after
that of those "dresed in little brief au-
thority" shall have passed away forever.
The tuneful Nine have it in care, and poet
ry and song shall watt it down to future
ages, and men shall say chat Whittier wrote
when Barbara lived.

DENTAL CARD.


ITO THE PUBLIC; WE WOULD CALL
i attention to the Card of DR.. A. WRssos,
especially to the last clause. As the whole
advertisement. heweyer, speaks for itself, al q
bears upon its face egotism. Ignorance and
charlatanism. and regarded by all intelligent
and honorable Dentists Of both city and
country as q gross outrage and disgrace upon
the profession, we therefore propose letting it
pass with this just censure, further than to
notice the above clause alluded to. IN which
the attention of the public is especially called
to the name Of A. Wesson. and are cautioned
against mistaking the name (Wesson). or place.
etc. as others of similar name have often
been mistaken for his. etc. The correctness

have most earnestly endeavored TO correct this
mistake, by constantly and emphatieal ex'
planning the common error with many, occa-
stoned by the similarity Of names; but we. are
sorry to say, notwithstanding this continued
effort on our part, we have as yet only par
italy succeeded, for the reason which We will
here explain. which Is this That the said DR..
A. (which stands for Abnerj WEssoS has not
acted in good faith with US; for, so far from
having ignored our name lWassen). or J. B. &

Office under false impressions. and with
very badly performed Dentistry: at that,
for which we afterward got the credit,
but he, their money-under what sort of pre-
lenses, we leave the reader TO JUDGE. But, in
conclusion, will suggest that should this
GREAT DOCTOR "a. Wesson) take occasion to
deny the above charge, we would here remind
him that this is only ONE, Of some Six other
charges equally reprehensible and derogaling
which were preferred "in due form" and ALL
fully 50. tsinei against him some time since. in
the MENPHIs DENTAL SOCIETY. and for which
he was duly and by a unanimous vote, expelled.
We, however, more through sympathy to the
Doctor than sense Of justice TO this commu-
nifty, determined never TO make publicity to
those summary proceedings, provided, how.
ever, that he (Wesson) would not continue to
disgrace the profession to which we have the
pride and honor OF belonging. and have strictly
adhered to this however, after be has been
known since to assume our name) until the
card referred to made its appearance, and has
for 20 long been srrayed before the public in
NEST glaring tissue Of false representations,
and savoring of the most stupendous humbug-
gerry. We have. therefore, taken occasion.
however reluctantly, TO call special attention 10
the said card, and propose letting this continue
as a standing advertisement so long as the card
referred 10 Of DR.. A. Wesson remains in this or
any other paper. Very respectfully.

annual ceremony only.
2. Light q fire in autumn, replensh coal and
remove the ashes once daily, and they go on
burning until spring.
8. They radiato an even, gentle and healthiul
heat, with none of that abominsble smell of gas
and burnt iron, so usual in common stoves.
4. They will burn as briskly by day and rs
slow by night as is desired, and can be regu-
lated to give tho degree of heat required in any
climate.
5. They completely Ventilste and illuminate
the room, thus making them as healthy and
cheerful as sn open fire.
6. They are made entirely of Cast Iron, and
will not rust out as will Sheet Iron Stoves.
7. Based upon scientific study and expert,
ment, they must necessarily supersede all
others.
8. Made in Baltimore, repairs can always be
had readily and at small cost; while the cost
OF getting repairs for stoves made at distance
generally makes it preferable to buy new ones.
