How TO su.ld up a Town.

When you have a few dollars do
not run off to some other town to
spend it. Remember hat every
dollar taken away is gone, never to
return. When you have employ
ment for hands do not go away
and hire some one from som
other place to perform it for you,
when the same labor can be per-
formed as well and as cheap by our
own townsman.
Build up your own schools and
churches. Help in every way you
can any enterprise of merit. Never
speak of anything to the disparage-
ment Of your own Institutions.
Patronize, and in every way aid
your own mechanics, yo1r laborers,
your doctors, merchants, and every
other man. with an honest employ
ment. Encourage every enterprise
that will bring a dollar to your
town by honest means, and discour.
age everything that tends to drive
away labor or capital, and we will
astonish the Oldest inhabitants. 1t
is a well known fact that the ar
pearance of a town often has a great
deal Of influence with most people
in deciding whether they would be
content to reside there or not, and
we would suggest to our citizens
the Importance Of keeping'up their
homes and surroundings il as neat
a style as possible for them to do,
1t is their duty to do 50 from a sense
of personal pride as we'll as for the
respect due the community which
they reside, to keep their place look
ing neat aud tasty.

French lawyers are doomed to wear

Though the Paris student may fairly
claim to be more free and disorderly
than those Of Iondon or Berlin, It
is.quite clear that the Paris bar is
under as strict a discipline as that
of any city in the world. An ediot
has gone forth to the effect that
mHstaches are at once and irreyo-
oably TO disappear from the upper
lips of all advocates in the Palais

authorities of the Faculte de nroit
had conniVed at tho wearing of
theae Anprofossional ornaments,
and grave professors had even car
ried into the l%ecture-room the for
hidden embellishments, But the
Minister Of Justice has interfered
to correct the scandal, and the
learned counsel will no longer be
permitted to dispense with their
