WHAT IT COSTS AND HOW TT PAYS
10 ADVERTISE.

Paul Pry has been looking up the sub
ject of advertising, and is responsible for
the statement that about $9,000,000 are
paid to the New York papers for that
purpose. OF this sum the Herald re-
ceivcs upward Of 100000, or about
$4,000 day; the Stats Zeitung 81, $780,
600; the Times Sl,4G0,090, and so on
down to some Of the more obscure sheets,
none of which receive less than 500, 900.
Mr.. Pry has also examined the ledgers
Of several Of the leading firms, and re-
ports that advertising costs A, T. Stew
art 100000 year Lord a. Taylor S22j,-

Robert Bonner $500, 900; Babbtt, the

pays out every year about 100000.
These are solemn aud suggestive facts,
which we ask our readers to ponder over
in the solitude OF their closets. All OF

SPREAD OF DARwIN's THEORIES

Max Adeler says; We are engaged
now in developing scheme growing kid
gloves on the original animal. Our
friend Darwin says you can do almost
anything with breeds by iudicions seec-
ton; and we are convinced that, with a
little care, il will be possible to produce
beast whose skin, when stripped of,
will make seamless kid glove. Our
first experiments are with lizards. A
lizard has four legs and tail. Now,
we believe that eventually the oiI-fore
leg can be developed into thumb, while
the three other legs and the tail can be
arranged as fingers. We arc crossing
lizards with short tails with long legs
and we are now looking around for a
variety Of lizard with button or two in
his neck, for the purpose Of breeding il
in with the others, whose eyes will an
swer for the button-holes. The ultimate
result promises TO be startling. 1t will
break up the old glove trade, aud drive
Jouvin TO suicide. Thus il is that human
ingenuity advances human civilization,

There was an old couple ut the Cen.
tral depot yesterday waiting to get thro'
to the West, and they seemed loving
enough until the old man went ont and
returned smoking five-cent cigar and
with his hat slauting over his left ear.
The wife looked at him twice before she
could recognize him, and then opened
her mouth aud said: Whatd ! tell you,
Phietus Remington, before we left New
Jerseyy Didn't say you'd 20 and make
a fool OF yourself the first chance you

HOW GEN'L sCoTT DIDN'T FIGHT \
DUEL.

Many little incidents OF his administra-
ton are on record. The following is
among them:
While Gen. Scott was governor OF
Kentucky, an Insignificant individual
having a desire TO distinguish his powers
pretending some offence singled out Gen,
Scott, TO whom be sent challenge. Tho
old veteran very properly refused to no.
tice the challenge. Meantime the bragg
CART had been ostentatiously speculating
on the occurrence IN advance, not an.
ticipating the turn II took. After wait.
ing in vain for an acceptance, and not
even receiving an answer, he went per.
sonally TO demand an explanation.
General Scott, you received my chal.
lengo.
Yonr challenge was delivered.
But have neither received an ac-
acknowledgement or an acceptance to IL.
! presume not sir, as have sent
neither.
But of course you intend 10 accept
IL?
OF course do not.
What, not accept my challenger Is 1t
possible tnat you, General Scott, brought
up in the army, decline a combatl

left but to post you as coward.

SHEEP STORIES

AT the cattle yards in East Buffalo
there is an immense sheep house, capa-
BILE of holding twenty thousand sheep.
II is situated some distance from the rail.
road, and is reached by somewhat cir
cuitous route, through various streets
aud avenues of the yard. When cattle
trains arrive in the night the sheep are
unloaded and driven to the house. Now
this was somewhat troublesome, until
introduction of Billy, the subject of the
sketch. Billy is fine weather. lie is
not Cotswold, nor a Southdown, nor Il
Merlno. Indeed, am afraid that his
pedigree is somewhat in obscurity. But
for all that, be is a most intelligent sheep.
When the sheep are all unloaded, Billy,
with bell on his neck, is placed at the
head of the flock. He leads them tbro'
the long avenues to the house and into
the pens, and as the last one enters the
pen, Billy slips out the gate, and returns
to his own stall and bale OF hay. All
this is done better than II could be by
several men.
The story of Billy reminds us of an
other Billy, who, on seeing his shadow,
through one of tie large, plate glass
windows, of a city dry goods store, stop.
ped to give him bunt, and as he went
through the window, into the salesroom
of the astonished inmates, he led every
sheep behind him, till the room was com
pletely filed with wool and live mutton,
