MERCHANDISING IMMINENT


FOR MAN AND BEAST.
Probably few articles have ever had
so extensive a Sale, while none have
been more universally beneficial thar
the celebrated MEXICAN MUSTANG
LINIMENT. Children, Adults, Horses,
and Domestic Animals, are always
liable to accident, and it is safe to say,
that no family can pass a single sea-
son without some kind of an emOIli-
ent being necessary. 1t becomes a
matter of Importance then to secure
the best.
Over three hundred livery stables in the
city of New York alone are using the MExI-
CAN MUSTANG LINIMEST, in all of which it
gives universal satisfaction.
CAUTION.-Theg genuine is wrapped in
fine Steel Plate engraving with go. W. West
brook, Chemist, " and ." Trade Mark, MEXICAN
MUSTANG LINIMENT," engraved across
the face of the wrapper. The whole bears the
proprietor's private United States Revenue
Stamp. and not a common stamp, as used by

duced in large and rapidIy-increasing guam
titles. As the price of iron and coal ad-
vanees IN this country, it must necessarily
be SO much in favour of the American eX-
porter. SlnguIarly enough, an American
paper now before US is congratuiating it's
readers upon the agreeable fact hat the
Imports ilto the Unit d States are falling
Oft, while the exports are on the increase.
1t is for the manufacturers of this country
to exercise all their skill and ingenuity in
manufacturing process in order to counter
balance IN some measure the high rates
they are paying for iron and coal, SO as to
bring down the manufactured article to
such a price that will drive all competitors
out OF the market and induce the capitalist
abroad to buy from this country.

CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP.

A girl, young and pretty, and above all
gifted with an air Of admirable candor,
lately presented herself before a Partisan
lawyer.
'Monsieur, | have come to consult you
on a grave affair. | want You to obIige
a man | love to marry me in spite Of him
self. How Shall ! proceed p
The gentleman Of the bar had, of course,
a sufficiently elastic conscisace. He re-

no one overheard him, copied besilating-

And will that suffice, MONSIEUR"

condition."

Then, you will produce witnesses who

every well, Monsieur, [ will retain Won
as counsel il the management OF dis affair.
Good day"
A few days afterward the young lady
returned. She was mysteriousiy received
by the lawyer, who scarcely gave her
time to seat herself, and questioned her
with the most lively curiosity.
Capital, capital"
&" Persevere in your design, mademoissI-
lie, but the next time you come to consult
me give me the name Of the young man
you are going to make SO happy in spite
of himself.
A fortnight afterward, the young lady
knocked at the door Of the coUnsel's room.
No sooner was she in than She flung her
self into a chair, saying that the walk
had made her GREATNESS. Her counsel
tried to reassuro her, made her inbale
salts, and even proposed to unlose her
garments.
1t is useless, Monsieur" she said Il
am much better"
Well, now tell me the name of the
fortunate mortal"
Well, then, the fortunate mortal, be
it known to you, is yourself" said the
young beauty, bursting into a laugh. {" I
love you, | have been here three times
tete-a-tete with you, and my four witoea-
ses are below, ready and willing to ac-
company me to a magistrate" graveIy
continued the narrator.
The lawyer thus caught had the good
sense not to get angry. The most singu-
lar fact of all is that he adores his young
wife, who makes an excellent housekee.
