Getting Clothes.

When n woman buys an article of wear
ing apparel, it is all right. Sheis not coun-
seled to take it back because of this or that
defect. She ignores mans knowledge in
| the matter, and he is only to glad to escape
TO make any protest. But when ne uphol-
sters himselfin any particular, she gives
the article the most critical examination,
and in nine cases out of ten hurries him
right back with it. Between that man s
regard for his wife and fear of the mer-
chant, he loses great deal that is pleasant
in this world. 1t is also a little singular
what a wonderful effect the store where
you have made the purchases has upon
the fit ofthe article. have known man
to 20 back three times with coat.
i1he firsttime it pinched him under the
arms. The dealer had him try 1t on then
pulled it down in the back, stood Off and
squinted at it, and then said, How does
that feel now?n
The man, perspiring at every ipore, and
feeling that he was guilty, in some way, of
taking unfair advantage of a trusting fell
low-nlortal, confessed it was much better,
and went off.
The next day he appeared, with the i'm
preston that there was no wool in the
CLOTH his wife said so. The salesman gave
him such plying glance, and whipped
the coat over from one side to the other SO
rapidly and talked so fast about texture
and wool, that the miserable wretch was
glad to get the garment back, and get out
of the store.
Two days later, he sneaked in again with
the coat under his arm. This time it
pinched adross the back. The tailor had
him try it on again, and then rubbed it
across the back and pulled it at the front,
and said he never saw anything fit like that
in his life; and the man, went off with a
similar belief. He didn't 90 back any
more; but he used to stand in front of that
store, when no one was looking, and shake
his fist through the window at the tailor,
and think up the things he wanted to do
10 him, but which there appeared to imme-
date prospect Of doing.

TO guard the town. He had listened to the
treacherous plot, and determined to reveal
it as soon as he could escape undiscovered.
But suddenly he is seized by the desperate
men. They declare that thay will instant
ly kill him. The sword is raised, but the
boy wild with terror, entreats their mercy,
and promises he Will never reveal to any
man what he has heard. Believing the
promise, with many threats they let him
go.
Out into the darkness the boy dashes.
He sees far off the light in the cot of n viii
lage butcher, and hastens toward it. There
is careless feasting and merriment here,
and group of men are telling stories of
daring in the olden time. The boy, with
breathless haste, rushes into the room.
The tears are rolling down his cheeks. He
looks not into the face of any one, but hur-
ries to the great stone stove, and cries:
20 stove! what l have promised never
to tell to any man / must quickly tell to
thee! Q dear good stove, was compelled

PRODUCE REVIEW.
The past week being Christmas week business
was of course very heavy in all channels but
for week or two hence we may look for less
active market and a falling Off in trade.
Bacon-Stock light, and there exists proba-
bility of still lighter, from the fact that West
ern spectators have failed in their object of
breaking the firm prices of the market. This,
in connection with the heavy experts, causes
trmer feeling on the part of holders. The stock
of Dry Salt Meats is ample to meet the demand.
The stock of Hams is much reduced, particu>
larry that Of choice sugar cured.
GrAin-Thc stock of Wheat is light, and is
mostly held by milers. The Corn market is
quiet and fairly supplied
Flour-For the past week good demand for
speculation has prevailed, ana prices were in
sympathy with Western markets, which have
experienced an advance recently.
Hay-Stock better and demand fair, without
any change in price.

The Beggar Boy Of Lucerne.

More than half century ago, before
The walls were built about the old city
of Lucerne, certain Austrian noblemen
formed q great conspiracy to conquer town
and land for Hapsburg. Now, the emer.
aid green waters of the Reuss flowed
swiftly pat the town. They have had
long Journey from their home among the
awful glaciers that bolt and bar the glorles
of the Alp-laud. They have bounded
over barren rocks, sprinkled the moss ana
heather above the realm Of beast and bird,
leaned fearless down the black DEVILS
Gorge, dashed over and around the bould-
ers with which the giants used to play,
and so ever on and ever down have held
their course, till the WOnderlake, the Lake
of the -Four CantOns, has received the
nanting fugitives She has washed them
clean of the earth.tint with which they
were born. Her depths, the color of
daintiest robins egg, quietly hide the
wanderers imperfections and send them
on their way, glad in their purity, loudly
singing their untranslateu song. Down
by the bed of the Reuss there stood an old
arcade. dim aud obscure, tit place for muir
derous council. Here the scarlet-sleeved
conspirators met in the darkness OF the
night. After much consultation 1t was
finally determined that with the swords
