BUYING BUTTONS.
How the Young Lady Of the
Quaker City Doesn't do It.


Philadelphia Record,
An extensive dealer In notions, par
tlcularly buttons, ON Chestnut street,
declared yesterday that the counter over
which these littlo articles are sold II the
best place Ia the world TO study some OF
the inexplicable ways OF the gcntler COX,
Though buttons" no said, go but u
short way toward rendering tho llfe
vi u man agreeable, yot % the opposite
sex they seem Ia DO necessary to abHo'
lutte felicity. II you would learn how
they purchase these little articles, step
this way" Behind u counter we're
four attendants. doing their utmost to
answer q thousand and ono questions
aud wait upon tho last dozen customers
ut the same time.
The customers Rll wanted buttons, all
were In u hurry; not one Of them had
dcciled upon any particular style, or
pattern, or price, and each and every
one Expressed desire Ia scc the whole
stock n once, and wondered how IN
the namc oi goodness they could not got
a dozen buttons or ~ without waiting
all day.
The way IL Ia done Ii this:
A lady rushed hreathleasly up to the
counter and, while waiting Tor tho
sulcsw oman, began to claw over every
box within reach, just 10 get IN idea oi
the styles. Presently young Indy
snatchcd M opportunity rom ht,
fusay customer To ask what abe wanted.
"fhank goodness, you have como ut
last, said the purchaser, I'll have been
standing here nm hour. am In u very
great hurry. Please show me some
buttons"
what s,ylcP" inquired tho a,tcn'
lant.
"lrt me scc what you have
ooh! this In your Wholesale stock, IL

Goodness gracious! s"ven'y-tlvc

'No. These are too large"
~ :, really too bad 'h""" "rO too

Il cant understand It, I'm M easily
pleased, too"
"rhat'. too high. Tho idea One
dollar dozen"
."Why, really, ~ you did show me
these before
"Wcll, | never, Did my they were
too snullp So | did"
"Ncs, In, | want something real
SNOWY"
"You really confuse me with no many
patterns"
About this time thciat, fussy customer
glurrd at the snlcAw oman, who glidcd
over Ia whore she Was digging down I"
the bottom Of large box. The young
mdy protested ON her sacred word, for
the fourth time. that sho did not know
how many buttons were necessary lnr
the front at u princess wrapper Tor
young lady Of eighteen, very large Tor
her years.
Customer No. . discovers tho ahscncc
IL the salcswoman, and calculates:
"Wrll | never; wonder when am I"

"Show me something for pros grain

to put more in one pile than be thought neces-
sary, he was in STOPPING position, when a cow
being frightened by others sudd emily raised her
head, striking him close under the eye the horn
penetrating into his face The force fthe blow
rendered him insensible for some time, the blood
In the meantime gushing profusely from the
wound. Af>aR recovering his senses he went to
the house and the f3wing OF the blood Was stop
ped and the wound dressed. At last accounts
he was better, though the wound is a very dam
gerous one. Several days ago young man
named Cole turned up whilst at work on the
farm of Nh. Henry Keys. not far from Dumfries,
