ABOUT ADvERTIsIEd.-Ac correspond
ent in the Newspaper Reporter has the
following about advertising
The man whe says he don't believe in
advertising, is doing just what he depre-
Gates. He hangs coats outside of his door
or puts dry goods in his windows-that's
advertising.
He has printed cards lyin G on his coun-
ter-that's advertising.
He sends out drummers through the
country, or puts his name on his wagon
that's advertising.
II he has lost his COW, be puts writ
ten notice in the post office, or tells his
ster-n-law-and that is advertising
too.
He has his name in gilt letters over the
door-what is that but advertising ?
He paints his shop green or red or, if
a tailor, he wears the latest style; ifa
doctor, he has boy call him out Of
church in haste fan auctioneer he bel'
lows to attract the attention ofpassers by;
il a heavy merchant, he keeps pile of
boxes on his sidewalk in front Of his store
and all for advertising.
A man can't do business successfully
without advertising, and the question is
whether to call to his aid the engine thai
moves the world-the printing press with
its thousands of messengers who are
working by night and by day-or go
back to The days when newspapers, tele
grams and railroads were unknown.

julius CEsAR's VIEW OF DEATH
Throughout his career Caesar displayed
always singular indifference to life.-
He had not much belief in God or the
gods. On all such questions he observed
from first to last profound silence. But
one conviction he had. He intended, il
he was to live at all, to live master of
himself Sylla might kill him if he so
pleased. 1t was better TO die than to put
away a wife who was the mother of his
child and to marry some other woman at
dictator's bidding. Life on such terms
was not worth keeping. What joy it
is TO read Of one man in the worlds his
tory who never played the fool or the
hypocrito. On one occasion the MAORI
ty Of the Senate, of which Caesar was
then young mem ber, wished to consign
large number of political offenders 10
capital punishment. Caesar opposed this.
He contended that death was not pun
ishment at all. Death was the end OF
human sorrow. In the grave there was
neither joy nor sorrow. When man
was dead he ceased to be. He became as
he had been before he was born. Proba-
bly, almost every one in the Senate
thought like Caesar on this subject
Cicero certainly did. Caesar spoke his
convictions OUT. A. BFeude,

BUTLER AT A PRIZE FIGHT.
How He Went to il in she Guise Ofa
Lone Fisherman.

Laughing over that cartoon in the
Graphic, representing General Butler on
fishing excursion with hook and line,
gathering them in over Massachusetts
my friend, Charles G.. remarked that
that picture reminded him of q piscatorial
experience which Butler had some ten
years ago. Two prize fighters, Levitt
and Finnegas, had agreed upon "a bat
Tie " to take place outside of Massachu
setts. The time and place for the fight
were known to but few persons
Charles G., then an officer Of the Bos-
ton municipality, and Butler we're we'll
acquainted. The latter came to the
former and said Charley, there's GO
ing to be prize fight somewhere about
this neigh borhood, I'm told, and you
are to be the referee. l want to witness
that encounter, and don't want to be
advertised as gong especially to see it."
" Well" said Charles c., 81 the time
set is Monday next, the place is five miles
from Manchester, New Hampshire, near
q certain fshingpond. Yeu ceme there,
and I'll see that you have front seat at
the show" "All right says Butler,
"say nothing about me. I'll get my
fishing tackle and 60 angling at that pond
you see. and just drop upon me as if by
accident" Sure enough, when the crowd
had assembled near the pond, Butler ap-
peared on the outskirts dressed in cor
duroy suit, his breeches tucked into his
boots ; thrown over his shoulder was a
long fishing rod. with hook and line at
tached. Carelessly and curously he ap-
peared as he came upon the party, and
he spoke out loud that all might hear
him " Hollo What's this you've here
"a picnic ?" "Ne," said Charles
G., who pretended not to know Butt
Ter, " there's going to be some gymnas-
tic exercise and some ground and lofty
tumbling." mo harm if stop and see
it, suppose ?" says Butler. "Oh, no,
none in the world" said Charles c.,
"just take position over there among
those gentlemen in front they are the
members of the press" And Butler did
SO. Charles G. says Butler became
intensified during the fight, and every
time one or the other Of the prize fighters
got in we'll " upon his opponent, But>
Ter grunted harmoniously, and let off
" his left or right" sympathetically with
the ambi dexterous gladiators as they let
fly. When the fight was over Butler
said: "That was fine. 1 enjoyed the
amusement very much. p Washington

VoTARIEs OF FAsHIoE.-At q fash
ionabls watering place the devotees OF
dress are hard worked people. They
have been laboring industriously for
months TO get up their wardrobes. They
are squeezed into dresses which fit as
though they had been melted and poured
around their forms. At halfpas ten
these models appear at breakfast clad in
white, with while kid slippers, which are
as tight as the dress, and long white
gloves which squeeze the hands and arms.
The wsarers are so uncomfortable that
they don't remain down stairs long, but
retire in one or two hours TO their rooms,
undress and breathe. They get into an
other kind of harness for dinner, then re-
tire again in order 10 draw full breath,
and reappear in the evening with more
stunning toilet than the ono worn al
breakfast or dinner.

AN IaNoBLE PASSION Jealousy is
the meanest of passions, for most fire.
quently it is an effect without cause-a
monster engendered in the imagination OF
its victim (; and feeding alike upon it
heart and brain. it ithers the rose upon
the cheek of beauty, dethrones reason
from its judgment seat, and gives the
reigns to passion it is the punishment Of
Tanta!us, without his crime. To the
Jealous mind madness would be relief,
and death a blessing it takes martyrs
pleasure in its tormentors, and adds to
their intensity by the ingenious skill with
which il adduces proofs from air-drawn
nothings, adding fuel to the fame by
which it suffers. Jealousy is a passion
against which persuasion and argument
ars equally vain the proofs which con-
vince but tend to confirm its fatal error.

BeRAx water will instantly remove all
soils and stains from the hands, and all
scratches and chafes. To make il, put
some crude borax into large bottle, and
fill with water. When the borax is dis
solved, add more 10 the water, until at
last the water can absorb no more and
residuum remains at the bottom of the
bottle. To the water in which the hands
are to be washed, after gardening, pour
from this bottle enough to make it very
soft. BY its use the hands will be kept
in excellent condition-smooth, soft and
