For the benefit of that misguided
business class who rely on their long
established and well-known reputa-
tionsn to attract custom, We repeat
this little story that is cow making
the rounds of the press:
"The late A. T. Stewart once came
to the conclusion that although ad-
vertising was good thing as ladder.
it was of no great benefit to him, as
his name sold his goods. To test it,
cue department only of his establish
ment was advertised. Its business
overtopped that of all others so i'm
mediately and so largely that Mr.. s.
concluded that to get the full power
of his name it must appear in print
er's ink. His advertising manager
says, from that time he advertised
more largely than ever in the leading
papers,"

and then poured a ladleful O. melted
lead onto it. A fash o. the awfullest,
sharpest pain that can be imagined
ran all through me, clean to the end

Old Clothes.

1t is wonderful what an amount of
adaptability there is in old clothes, and
how readily they consent to be made
over, brushed up, washed, sponged, dyed,
or otherwise rejuvenated till it would al
most require an expert to tell that they
were not new. A cunning hand can in
deed make a very presentable garment
from two old ones; and who of us that
has bestowed some ancient article upon
our washer or herb woman, hut is more
or less amazed to see to what good &C
count she turns it, how fairly it rewards
her pains, and what lesson drops from
the folds of this bit Of cast
off clothing? If there are sermons in
| stones, old clothes preach to us, some
times, as we'll. There is charm, perhaps,
in wearing them which those who make
haste to put on new ones fail to recognize:
there is always the certain pleasure of
saving the new ones: at least the surety
that no accident Of the day can greatly
afilicc u.s.. that we are not obliged to
move In defence to attire; that we can
ramble in the woods without anxiety:
that neither sun nor rain can disturb our
tranquility; that careless or awkward
nelghbor at table has no alarms for US.
In our old clothes we can romp with the
children, and little fingers where bread
and molasses yet linger have no terrors
for us. @....0-1 ...~ .s@=
1t we need to transplant our flowers, to
weed the garden bed, to pick the pease
tor dinner, how plainly precept and ex-
ample point to the old clothes! how
| comfortable we are in them! It is the
Old shoe that never pinches or squeaks,
the old gown that never interrupts diges-
ton Or peace of mind, the old glove that
has shaped itself to the hand, the old
cloak that advertises our approach to our
nelghbo1s, and give them notice to change
the babys apron and set the room to
rights, the old hat that is not afraid to be
caught in ashower. They have adapted
themselves to our req uirements; they suit
us, as nothing new was ever known to do.
'If you have any enterprises before
you, try it in your old Clothes" says the
sage of Walden Woods; yet such is the
common prejudice against them, that a
stranger thus apparelled would fall I'M
der some suspicion among us; being in
possession of no other data from which
to infer her social and mental position,
we should naturally accept the antiquity
OF her clothes as certificate OF inferiority.
At the same time, this fact in no way di-
minishes the ability of old clothes to con-
Ter happy go lucky mood upon the
wearer, who is not obliged to mind his
ps and q's for fear of ruffiing his plum

Fishes from Volcanoes.

rsy
Fishes are found in very curious places,
where they are in no DANCE, from boys
with rod and line. They live in great
numbers in lakes in the Mammoth
Cave, in Kentucky; and, as noslight ever
reaches them, they are without eyes. In
other caves, however, in similar dark
ness, they have very good eyes, though
have no occasion to use them. In Dor.
ing for artesian wells in the great Desert
of Sahara, the engineers struck a stream
flowing hundreds of feet under ground,
and the stream was full of fishes, as per-
fectly formed every way as fish in com
mon rivers or lakes.
But the most extraordinary place to
find fishes is in a volcano. Fire and wa
ter don't mix very readily; but somehow
fishes get into volcanic crater, and colEe
out of it very rapidly, without swim
ming or leaping. Two hundred or more
years ago the volcano 1mbavura, a peak
of the Andes, burst out with violent
eruption, sending out not torrents of lava,
but streams of mud, in which were my
RAIDS OF fishes. Another mountain in the
same range, said by Humboldt to be
nineteen thousand feet high, had SINH
lar eruption seven years later. The tor
rents of mud were full of dead fishes
The fishes in both cases, were little black
creatures, such as are found in the
streams at the foot of the mountains. 1,
is evident there must be rivers under
ground, like the rivers under the Desert
Sahara, and these sometimes come in
contact with the volcanic fires. and the
poor fishes find themselves travelling
against their Will more rapidly than in
any Of their migrations.

How to Take Care Of a Horse Team.

The treatment of horses is an art, and
but little understood generally, and
where undertook not always practised, SO
that our horses are pretty we'll abused
animals. This is not only wrong, but d
loss. and considerable one. Treat a
horse well always, from colthood up, and
it is remarkable how much labor may be
got out of him. Treat him, first, kindly;
never overfeed him, particularly with
grain. Have a warm ventilated stable for
him, soft and dry. Feed him regularly;
keep him clean; and never overstrain him,
not even once. He will then be servant
for you for a long time. You will get
from quarter to a third more time and
labor out OF him, and this the same horse
already practised and broke to your hand

horse that is to supply, prematurely, his
