FINE MILLINERY.
Among the many tine business houses on
State street is that Of Meyers millinery estab-
lisllment at No. 1885, Though not one of the
largest yet it is one Of the most complete. So
far as goods and work arc concerned, there is
probably no other millinery store in the city that
sells the same amount Of fine goods, in quality
equal to those Of any other house, and at SO rca-

brought and entwined round the bell in
such a way that, with the aid of small
paddock which was attached it, entrance
to the bell was most effectually prevented !;
and, the paddock being fastened, some
more muslin was brought wrapped over
the lock, and sealed with the Device
Nilemee's seal, bearing golden dodo and
his name in Cingalese. A gold umbrella

give the world for q saving expedient.
The happy thought flashed upon him

his voice pealed out above the clamor OF

How Old Peter Bennett Won His Case.

affairs, the visitor will find In him one of
the best and most prolific anecdotists Of

One story--alasi that he cannot sit in

speech. A Dir. Royston, doubtless most
excellent man, had sued Mr.. Bennett, q
farmer, for his bill. Little Aeck," as
Alexander Ia minified by his friends, told
his client, Peter b., that the case OF service
and its value were proved against him In
legal form and there was no real defense.
But the old farmer insisted that his law
yer should speak TO the case" Mr.
Stephens told him that he ought TO speak
himself il he thought speech could oe
