THERE is now offered to some man
or woman of energy an extraordinary
opportunity to secure profitable en-
ployment for the winter. Persons en-
gagged in selling subscription books are
making from one hundred to three
hundred dollars per month, clear of all
expenses. The new subscription book
offered in our advertising column is
one we know will sell, and there is no
doubt large number could be sold in
this city in spite of hard times. We
are all anxious to know of the secrets
and inside life of our prisons, and the
romance Of great felons. The New
York tombs, the most celebrated of
prisons, between whose granite walls
has been confined the most noted and
daring, as well as the most depraved
and desperate of criminals; Tweed,
Stokes, Walworth, men who have
lived rs millionaires, and enjoyed the
best things of earth, and the slums and
outcasts of the Five Points, all meeting
on II common level in the tombs. We
cannot recount all the lessons this book
teaches. We advise all to buy andread
it. The fortunate person who secures
the agency for this town or county will
securea harvest. See advertisement of
the United States Publishing company
of New York.

Helen Nj. Cooke, writing verses in

her brow are the richest diadem her
woman'ssoul aspires TO wear. 1t may
also be remarked that they are unsur-
passed fer cheapness, which Is point
worth considering. II Helen Is young

A MERRY CHRIS rMAs,

are people who will wind garlNnds Of
weeping willows around every joyous
oeoaslon, They are happy under pro-
test, and enjoy this glorious old holl'
day 10y dismal comparisons Of II with
past ones, They have no tendrlls Of
the heart which cling 10 the happy
present. they prefer to lot their memo
ries, like the dead Ivy on some ruined
home, remain 10 tell Of past verdure
aud beauty, II IL the part Of wisdom,
though, nowadays, In this working
world, 10 carry IN little dead weight ~
possible In the way o, senseless repln-
Ing aud impatient endurance of our
present lot We can all feel, aud do re-
cognl1e the lines Of care wrought by the
chsels Of time, sorrow and change, In
our hces aud locks, the greivous raids
death has made In some OF our homes,
the gnawIng anguish hidden under
many brave quiet faces, We look
around to-day and see our comrades In
the battle of life and hnd some foot
sore aud weary, Others heart.slcli and
ready 10 faint under the burden Of
duty. Let IN give all u kind word, Il
warm clasp Of the hand and n look OF
sympathy aud good feeling TO those
about w. II IL the children, however,
for whose happiness this day we are
most responsible. The thousands OF
little rosy faces and golden heads pill
lowed In innocence, which will be
raised this morning tremulous with
expectations and pretty wonder, must
not be disappointed, Santa Claus will
not hear of any Of his little folks
having their first dlsappoint'
ment. That must not come upon
the day he Is abroad. Those who are
so hard and selfish that their hearts dc
not thaw on this day, should read of
dear little DOT and "John Pcrrybin-
gle,n aud grun "Mr. Tackleton,n the
arch enemy of crickcts, and poor old
"Caleb Plummer," and Of "Tiny Tim, "
with whom may we all say, "NIay God

Among us are many strangers. Go
out into the highways and bywaysand
bid them welcome to your boards, be
the dinner humble or dainty. A more
thoughtful ana delicate courtesy can
not be shown this day, than sharing
our hearth and homes with those who
are far from their own, and to whom
the day may otherwise be sad.

for the appetite, though it is u.ually
