"Reduce?" echoed the young assist
ant; "why, [ only get two dollars a

"Well then," continued the broker,
blandly, ''what do you say to dropping
the salary entirely and taking a half in
terest in the business ?"
The boy could not be caught in that
way; he was too shrewd a lad. He.had
kept a good track of business and had
seen how things were running, and SO,
instead of thoughtlessly accepting the
mans offer, he quietly but firmly re-
piled:

A Word About MARRIAGE

a physician writes the following sen
sible advice: My profession has thrown
me among women of all classes, anC
my experience teaches me that Goo
never gave man a greater proof of his
love than to place woman here with
him. My advice is: Go, propose to the
most sensible girl you know. If she
says yes, tell her how much your in
come is, from what source derived, and
tell her you will divide the last shilling
with her, and love her with all your
heart in the bargain And then keep
your promise. My word for it, she
will live within your income, and to
your last hour you will regret that you
didn't marry sooner. Gentleman, don't
worry about female extravaganza and
feminine untruth. Just you be true to
her, Hove her sincerely, and thrOwitup to
her frequently, and more fond, faith
full, foolish slave you will never meet
anywhere You won't deserve her, |
know, but she will never know it. Now
throw aside pride and selfshness, and
see what will come of it.

The Centennial Admission Fee

The price of admission to the exhibi-
ton will be fifty cents, payable In one
note. The receivers at the recording
turnstiles will have nothing to do with
the notes, except to decide whether
they are good or bad, and to drop them
In the boxes, where each one will regis
ter itself. An exchange Office of the
Centennial National Bank will be estab-
liShed near each entrance, to change
money for visitors not having fifty cent
notes. This mOney-changer will be eX-
pected to have no more and no less
money when his work is done than
wnen he began. The Centennial Com
mission, after much inquiry and careful
consideration, concluded that the whole
system-absence of season tickets and
alI-was cheaper and more secure
against fraud than any other known.
In order that the cash in the boxes NAV
correspond with the Indicator, a dollar
note will not be received at any gate
for the admission of two persons, nor
two twenty-five cent notes for that of
one person. Nointelligent visitor, how
ever, with the facilities afforded, need
get into the "cue," an arrangement to
keep in single file those about to enter.

somewhat curiously illustrated by the

three feet square, and over six feet

planks composing the cover were made

privately that the guard wished to
