ALessOn TO Advertisers.

The insanity of DR.. J. @. Aver, of Lowell,
affords terrible warning to advertisers. Here
was man engaged in the manufacture of
pill, not differing much from a hundred other
pills which may be obtained at any drug store.
In an upguarded moment he made up his mind
that he would advertise, not in the picsy une
style of the ordinary dealer. but in q compre-
hensiye sort of way, by which he could reach
every possible purchaser of pills. He started
with the idea of devoting half of his profits
each year to advertising.
The result might have been foreseen. He
accumulated money so rapidly that he did not
know what to do with it. When he had rolled
together $15000,000, and had vainly striven to
find some outlet for his ever-increasing profits,
his mind gave way under the absorbing cares
of his vast business, and he is now q patient
at an asylum for the insane. How easily this
calamity might have been avertedl If he had
stuck to the conservative methods of many of
our merchants and Iefraned from advertising,
he might have been passing quietly through
bankruptcy now, instead of being loaded down
with his uncounted millions,
1t Is a dangerous experiment for a man who
does not want to become rich to advertiser or If
he advertises at all, he mus advertise grudg-
iogly and at long intervals, lest his profits
should grow out OF all proportion to his require
ments, and he should find himself burdened
with wealth. Advertising conducted on the
principle of devoting half the profits of busi-
ness to it, is, we repeat, a dangerous experi-
ment. 1t preciptates a fortune upon the adj
vertiser so suddenly that the chances are even
that be will not know what TO do with his mon
ey. The multitudinous pleasures of bankrupt
cy, insolvency and Shining around" for the
wherewithal to meet note are permanently
denied to the man who advertlses.
There never was in Europe or America a
great advertiser who did not accumulate great
fortune, Let those who desire to live unbur-
dened by the cares of wealth take warning
ErchQnqe.

IT may be the stiffness which proverbialy
precedes storm, but there is apparently a
calm in Paris now that the National Assem-
bly, has been dissolved. Thiers, who is aged
and wise, is apparently acting in concert with
Gambetta, who, able and impetuous in gen.
eral, is now putting great restraint upon him
self, so as not, by want of temper or frailty of
Judgment, to give any advantage TO Presi-
dent MacMahon's Ministry,o of which the Due
de Broglie is the nominal, while NJ. Charles
de Fourtou is the real chief. If half that is
said of this latter gentleman be true, he is
unscrupulous 10 degree, ambitious, arbi-
trary, scheming, and ever acting on the rule
that the end justiies the means. Just now
the end he has in view is the acquiring ma
jority in the Chamber of Deputies for the
government. To effect this, it is anticipated
from the French system,as well as the known
character of the man, that all possible means
within and independent of the law will be
employed to obtain Ministerial majority at
the general election of Deputies. The new
Chamber will 60 into session early in No

Ancient Ornaments Of Cypriot Ladies.

They had delicious ideas of taste and beauty,
those Cypriot ladies of the olden time. We
have never seen more beautiful jewelry than
they wore. Their earrings were of thousand
forms.
They wore necklaces in many shapes, aud
some of the ladies of ancient Kurium, when
they wished to pay vows TO the temple by good
lnck gave their necklaces. We say by good
luck, for thus it happens that we have become
heirs to them, and know that they wore neck
laces Of fine gold beads, of beads and agate, of
alternate beads and drops of gold, of enamel,
of heavy links Of gold, and of agates cut in
long shapes mounted swith gold caps. finely or
namented, and having agate pendants with
gold setting. The children of those days seem
to have worn little bracelets OF delicate chain
work. with round gold button at the clasp.
There are several of them here.
Objects in enamel are numerous, and clos
onne enamel was one of their favorite styles of
ornamenting jewelry. There is a pair of heavy
gold bracelets on which the gold bands forming
the cloisons remain, but from which the en-
amel has disappeared. In fact, the enamel
has mostly vanished from all the specimens of
cloisonne work, but in a few it remains in a
disntegrated condition, while in one of the
gold necklaces from which the enamel has
nearly vanished one little fragment remains,
giving the clear translucent CLINT of vitrified
substance, and showing that the entire neck
lace must have shone once with the lustre of
emeralds. 4 ,large pendant, set with an eye
like agate, is a splendid specimen.
And there are some things herein silver which
were they perfect, would ravish the eyes of our
lady readers, and over which some of them
who love art will bend in delighted rapture.
These are silver belts worn by ladies of Cy-
prus in the ancient years. Within the past year
or two fashion has prevailed among Ameri-
can ladies OF wearing broad metallic belts of
Cypriot make. Delicately engraved in pat
terms, inlaid or overlaid with gold they are ex-
ceedingly beautiful. From brief examina-
tion of some of these, we were struck with the
idea that when they were made silver was
more precious than gold, and that the gold
which shines out of them was used for color to
set off the beautiful patterns in silver. Do not
imagine, dear madame, from our account that
you will see shning,silver belt.the zone of an
ancient Venus, when you visit the museum
But you will see rows of rough, dark ashy-
looking fragments the glow of the ancient
spelndor showing through the decay The
slender form of beauty once surrounded by this
belt of rare and delicate workmanship, which
retains to-day the contour of the form it encir-
cled, is dust of the old island of Cyprus and
the old metal zone is almost dust as WE'LL

IT is several months since anything was
heard of Stan ley, and there is, naturally
enough, some anxiety felt for his safety.
When last heard from he was in one of the
most dangerous portions of Africa, where
every prospect pleases and man is uncom-
monty vile. The latest news conveyed the
Intelligence that he was about to attempt to
solve the MYSTERY that surrounds the Lualaba
river, and to decide whether or not it is iden-
tical with the Congo. The climate of the
portion of Africa through which such an in
vestigation would lead him, is said to be sim
gularly unhealthy, besides which there are
