JOHN RoBINsoN's GREATEST ENTER.
pR1sE.-Some of my friends have feared
that l have expended such fabulous
sum OF money in fitting out my great
travelling show that will never get it
back again; we'll, if don't, perhaps 1
can stand it. I have learned that the
moro extravagant manager is in pro-
viding for the public qualification, the
more literally will he be patronized.
Indeed this is one Of the great secrets In
my line Of business. OF course mana
ger must not muddle his brain with
liquor, but must keep it clear and cool so
that he don't squander foolishly. Lay
out every dollar judiciously where it will
gratify your patrons. then go ahead with
your show; the public will do the rest.

ARr1sTIc.-We had the pleasure, on
yesterday afternoon, of examining pen.
Gil drawing, the production of Miss Belle
Arthur's facilo hand, representing the
branches of luscious fruit. We were
surprised at the artistic skill which this
finished picture displayed. Our surprise
and admiration were exchanged for
amazement when informed that its beau
tiful delineations were the handiwork of
one just in her teens, who had been
under the guidance Of q tutor but six
weeks. We cannot too highly eulogize
this graceful sketch of the child artist,
whose talent recalls the rare skill Of her
distinguished father, the Hon. E. j.
Arthur-the man without superior in
touching with tho liveliest vitality every
