HARPER'S BAZAAR.

Free from all political and seetarian discus
sion, devoted to fashion, pleasure, and in
struction, it Is just the agreeable, compan-
ionable, and interesting paper which every
mother and wife and sweetheart will require
every son, husband, and lover to bring home
with them every Saturday evening. Philu-
dctphia Ledger.
This paper at the outset occupied place
not filed by any American periodical, and
won for itself q deserved popularity. It is
really the only illustrated chronieler of fash
ions in the country. Its supplements alone
are worth the subscription price of the paper
While fully maintaining its position as d mir
ror of fashion, it also contains stories, poems,
brilliant essays, besides general and person
al gossip Tie publishers appear to have
spared no labor or expense necessary to make
the Bazaar the most attractive journal that
can possibly be made.-Bosto,, Saturday Ere.

FooLscAP.--The origin of the term
"foolscap," has doubtless puzzled many
writers who use the paper known by that
name, and yet, as in many similar cases,
it took its name from very simple cir
cumstance. Charles l., of England,
granted numerous monopolies for the
support of the government. Among
others was the manufacture Of paper.
The watermark of the finest sort was the
royal arms Of England. The consump-
tion of this article was great, and large
fortunes were made by those who pur-
chased the exclusive right to vend it.
This, among other monopolies, was set
aside by the Parliament that brought
Charles I. to the scaffold; and by way of
showing their contempt for the King they
ordered the royal arms to be taken from
the paper, and fool with his cap and
bells to be substituted. 1t is now over
two hundred years since the foolscap was
taken from the paper, but still the paper
of the size which the Rump Parliament
ordered for their journals bears the name
of the watermark placed there as an in
dignity to Charles.

"S'OLL RIGHT, SIR. IA man passing
up Pleasant street, Worcester, late one
Sunday evening, saw some one leaning
against the door of the Baptist church,
and on looking more closely, observed
that he was in the act of taking a drink
from bottle. On seeing the man ap-
proach, and probably thinking him to be
a patrolman, the fellow reeled round, and
taking hold Of the door-handle, said:
"S'oll right, s'r; board here, s'r, allus
take dirk fore l go to bed"
The man called his attention to the
fact that the building he leaned on for
support was a Baptist church, and sug-
gested that he best go home before the
bottle had him in the gutter; whereupon
tipsy corked his bottle and said, discour-
agingly:
''This ther third time # been mistaken,
and ef find any more Baptis' meetin'-
houses that look like my boardin' place,
bottle won't hold out. Glad you amt a
p'leceman.

LAW OF NEWSPAPERS.

/. Subscribers who do not give ex-
press notice to the contrary, are consider
ed as wishing to continue their subscrip-
tion.
2. If subscribers wish their papers dis
continued, publishers may continue to
send them until all charges are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their papers from the office or place
to which they are sent, they are held re-
sponsble until they settle their bills and
give due notice to discontinue.
4. If subscribers move to other places
without informing the publisher, and the
paper is sent 20 the former direction they
are held responsible. Notice should al
ways be given of the removal.
5. The courts have decided, that refus-
ing to take a paper from the office, or re-
moving and leaving it uncalled for, is Pr1-
ma focte evidence of intentional fraud.

WARTs.-Warts are not only trouble
some, but disfgure the hands. Our read
ers will thank us for calling their atten-
to the following perfect cure, even of the
largest, without leaving scar. 1t has
been tested by the writer: "Take a
small piece Of raw beef, steep it all night
in vinegar, cut as much from it as will
cover the wart, and tie it on; or, if the
excresence is on the forehead, fasten it
on with strips of plaster. 1t may be re-
moved during the day and put on every
night. In one fortnight the wart will die
and peel Off" The same prescription
will cure corns.
