THK sToKr or RING.
A touching Incident occurred at the plac,
of my next visit. "A woman. about IS year.
Of age, in the garb Of mourning, entered, ey
ident,y with reluctance; she could hardl,
make the object Of her visit known on 40
count Of her emotion. She was OF delicats
frame, of easy and graceful manners, and bu,
for the rayages Of care upon her face, might
still have been beautiful. At length she took
2 ring from pretty little morocco case, upon
the pledge Of which she wished to realize
such an amount Of money as would sustain
herself and children through the winter. The
extortioner took the ring ii his fingers, and,
holding it up to the window, pretended to
examine it-assuming at the same time an air
Of affected disapp pointmcnt; he began 1T once
to deprecate the article, claring that it was
nothing but an Alaska crystal, and that he
would hardly take II. at any price. Lie. was
inexorable. and peremptorily refused to adj
vance more than four or five dollars. Tears
glistened in the woman's eyes. 4l
.il had seen, as, the man studied the ring
with secret satisfaction by the window, that
the gem was valuable, was determined
that the unfortunate owner should not be i'm
posed upon. just before bargain was com.
pleteds however. as was about to interpose
myself, another gentleman. who had also
been watching the proceeding, stepped for
ward and declared that that beautiful ring
should not be sacrificed to the dew in that
way. The broker at once enleayored to
hasten matters, and declaring the bargain to-
have been completed, would have succeeded
in thrustiDg the jewel into the drawer but for
the resolution OF the gentleman, who seized
and saved il. The wretch muttered some
thing about peoples interfering in. business.
exclusively his own concern, but to 10 pur-5
yOse Rlf the wif|aw WAS rescuad from his
fangs and received a tair amount for her ring.

what Advertising Dld.

-
Milaud, the banker and newspaper spec,i-
lator, who died recently in Paris. and who
founded the Petite journal, which at one time
had daily circulation Of nearly half mil
lion copies. was an enthusiastic believer in
the advantages of liberal advertising. One
day he had at his table nearly all OF the pro-
prietors Of the leading Paris tdailies. They
conversed about advertising. Millaud assert
ed that the most worthless articles could be
sold in vast quantities If literally advertised.
Emil de Girardin, of La Presse. who was
present, took Issue with him on the subject.
s.Wbat will you bet,'' exclaimed Millaud,
that I can't sell in one week one hundred
thousand francs worth OF she most ca,nfnon
cabbage seed under the i,retext that it will
produce mammoth cabbage heads? All /
have to do is to advertise It at once III whole
page Insertion in the daily papers of the
city, Girardin replied that he would give.
him a page in his paper for nothing if he
should win his wager. The other newspaper
publ hers agreed to do the same thing. AT
the expiration Of tliesweek they INQUIRED az
Millaud how the cabbage seed had ffourished.
He showed them that he had sold nearly
twice as much as he had promised, while orr
lers were still coming fiji; but he said the
Joke must stop there, and no further orders
would be filled. l..ssg
