Zene Clarke, of the firm Of G.. Z. &
Z. w. Clarke says that he don't care
a cent about losing his sign, and that
he is perfectly willing to give any one
q fish that is not able to buy one But

miserable sneak stole that fish that
was hing out for sign, he would
break every bone in his body, so that
the fellow would think streak of
lightning had struck him, and that
the thunder clap was going to follow
Immediately.
1t is q wonder that town as large

have good debating club. TRis is
one of the most beneficial things in

vate the mind, and expand the young
ideas. Now let some one take the
lead in this matter, and we are sure
plenty will follow. Let us have q
place of useful entertainment for our
young people. Who will lead?
Mr.. Mark King has secured the
agency for this town and vicinity, to
sell the "Life of Custer" This is an
excellent work, and is complete his
tory Of one of Americas bravest sons,
and should meet with ready sale,
The price OF the book is exceedingly
low, and all of the Profits which are
realized from it will 60 to General
Clusters widow. This alone should
be sufficient to guarantee large sales
of this book.
The very thing young man wants
to do when he comes into a printing
office, that is if he wants to make
himself agreeable, and the printer
good natured, is to come in, go to
whistling or dancing an Indian war
dance. Then 60 around to the cases
of type, handle them a while, and mix
them up as much as he can, look over
the compositors shoulder snd read
the copy, pick up the proofs and read
them, so as to be able to 60 out or
the streets and make news shop Of
himself, by telling what is to be print
ed 30 as to make news stale before
the paper gets cut. The young mar
who does this will always be held il
esteem by the printer, and, no doubt,
will work his way into responsible
position in the government employ, il
prospered.
