How is Your Brother 2

Yesterday morning nice young man got
into car on the Dayton Short Line railroad,
and saw to his delight the only vacant seat in
the coach was by the side of young lady ac>
quaintauce. He reached for the seat with
joyous strides. and her eyes answered his de-
lighted looks but just before he got there,
an elderly party from the other end of the
carwal;zed up the aisle and dropped into the
coveted seat The young man approached
more slowly and accosted the young lady.
Glow is your brother 2" he asked, sis he
able to get about"
''Oh yes" she said.
"Will he be very badly marked" he con-
tinued and the old gentleman grew suddenly
interested
ooh no." said the fair deeeiver, "wi.h the
exception of a few small pits on his forehead,
you would not know he ever had it."
"Were you not afraid of catching it 2" the
young man went on, while the old gentleman
broke out in Geld perspiration
''Not at ALL" she replied, 81 had been
Eaccinated, you kuov"
The sea. was instantly vacated two young
hearts beat as half a-dozen. and the prattle
OF "nice talk" strewed that part of the car,
while gray haired old mon scowIed upon
them from the hard accommodation of the
wood box.

NEWSPAPER BoRRowERs.-The following
from tho Rockingham Rcgjster, presents a
picture familiar to most newspaper publishers,
aud one which should strike home to the
class at which it is aimed:
The great pest of the newspaper press is
the newspaper borrower. 1t frequently hap
pens that rich man borrows a poor mans
newspaper, until the poor man, no longer
able to read his paper in peace, has to discou
tinue it. We have case in point: An old
and excellent subscriber. who had taken and
paid for the Register for 20 years, had to have
his paper stopped the other day because his
neighbors, he said, who arc better able to pay
for newspaper than he is. insisted upon Dor
rowing and reading all the news out of ii, -
frequently before he had looked at it himself.
They sometimes borrowed and never even re-
turned it Some of them went SO far as to
get it out of tho post Office and carry it home
with them before he saw it.

TIE BOOK TRADE.
An Important Element In she Business
of Ihc City-A Solid House.

The Importance of the book, station
cry and paper trade of this city has
never been properly appreciated.
Quietly and without any flourish of
trumpets, Messrs. Reed n Lathrop, of
No. sos Main street, have built up n
ilourishing trade in this line. Keeping
nothing but iirst-class goods and sell
ing ut moderate profits, they have
been able to attract to their doors n
large proportion OF both country and
city trade. Their system OF weekly or
ders to manufacturers, dealers and
publishers in Eastern and Northern
cities, keeps their stock always fresh
and permits them to offer their patrons
all that is new and novel in all their
departments. a specially with this
house is the furnishing of schools with
the noted Sterling school furniture,
which is rapidly taking the place OF all
other styles. a glance at their card,
printed elsewhere in this paper, will
afford interesting Information to those
contemplating purchases in their line
of business.

DALLAS, August 3D. 1885.
70 the Editor OF the Dallas Herald:
feel that | cannot let the opportu-
nifty pass of taking John Granger 10y
the hand as he is leaving, and express
ing the hope that he has received
pleasure and profit during his stay
here, in Dallas. assume the rcspon-
sibility of saying that his presence
here has given great pleasure to the
citizens generally, and that the mer-
camille portion, in particular, have
realized that class of profit that his
class always so libcrally bestows. AS
to the work OF his organization, which
he came here to do, this writer hopes
that he has accomplished most, if not
all, he and his constituents desire. He
has learned something of city life,
while here; has seen the sights; drank
the mysteriOusly compounded bever-
ages, such ~ lemonade with u stick in
it, sherry shoemaker, Tor, perhaps,
cobbler is the correct term), and en-
joyed the luXuries set forth by the con-
PETITIONERS such ~ ice.cream and
those delicious cakes with which
they know so well how to
tempt any palate. And when
we have the leisure to profit 10y his
cordial invitation to visit isportion of
ruraldom, we promise him on the
word of II reporter that we will not tell
of the mistake he made in using the
silver itreble-plated) strainer to scoop
up the cobbler aforesaid, or, indeed,
any other conventional error he might
have been betrayed into committing.
AS an offset and as II balm to his
wounded self-respect, let him put
some "city chap" between the
handles of n pillow, with good
team for the motive power, and, of
course, he can easily guess the result.
Finally and seriously, let him warn all
young Changers against the fascination
of n city life. Let him use his influence
to prevent them from exchanging their
present noble calling and work
farmer and farming-ior such II life.
There is terribly dark side to life in
II crowded town, assure you. Again,
goodbye, and may you live long and
prolitably to yourself and the rest of
mankind. QuERo.
