A Good Illustration,

One OF the best illustrations of the
benefit of advertising which We have
noticed was given some years ago in
Barnum's Museum, New York. 1t
was in the afternoon, just preceding
the exhibition in the grand lecture
rOUul, thav when tiivuoamis .f poo
pie, ofall ages, sexes, and nationalities,
always throng every part of the build
ing. The great Snowman, who was
present attending personally to the
wants Of his patrons, noticed that Mr..
Ar, well known as one Of the
wealthicst men in America, was pres
ent, and that he appeared to be anxi-
ously in search of some one whom he
could not find. As he was frequent
visitor at the Museum, no particular
attention was given to the fact at that
time. Some time after, however, Mr..
Barnum noticed him again in another
part of the Museum, forcing his way
through the crowd, aud still evidently
pursuing his vain searches.
With that spiri OF accommodation
80 characteristic OF the man, Mr.
Barnum approached him TO offer any
assistance in his power, whom Mr.,
A petulantly acrostcd him as fol-
lows -
"Mr. Barnun,, ! am discouraged

this crowd is impossible. Can you or
any one else tell me why it is that so
many people come here p
"There is nothing more easily ac.
counted for" replied Barnum. ain
tho first place, ! got something worth
seeing, and then make it known that
Lave gotit That's the whole secret"
"Nonsense, said Mr.. Al; "peo.
Pile have got into the habit of coming
here, and come any way. ! don't be-
lieve in this advertising it amounts
to very little, that's my opinion"
oWell, indeed | am happy to learn
the people have such good habits
But now, to convince you that you are
entirely mistaken; l will do a little
advertising for your own especial ben
eft, and then you may be induced to
change your mind on that point"
Thus saying, Barnum stepped to the
door Of the lecture room, closely fol-
lowed by Mr.. Al. In front was
sea Of upturned faces anxiously
awaiting tho rising Of the curtain and
the commencement Of the play While
Mr.. Ar was wondering in what
way advertising could be done to bene-
fit him, and how any one could dis
cover his friend in such an immense
throng, Barnum stepped upon q seat,
and, calling in a loud voice, said;
'Is Mr.. M, of Boston, present
If he is he will oblige me by coming
this way"
In n moment n man arose in the au'
dionce, and commenced making his
way to the door.
dNow," said Barnum, "you have
spent over an hour trying to find o

LOVES PHILOSOPHY.

The fountains mingle with ihs river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds Of heaven mix forever
With sweet emotion:
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by law divine
In one another's being mingle--
Why not with thine'
See, the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower could ke forgiven,
III II disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeamS kiss the sea
What are all these kissings worth,
II thou kiss not me ?
