How Money Is Wasted.

One of the queer things In business is the
propensity Of people to seek irregular medi.
ums for advertising. It-is unaccountable
the prices that some men pay for sticking
their advertisements In irreg ular places. Es-
pecially Is this SO when compared with their
unwllIingness to pay anything for advertis-
ing In the regular channels. Men will pay
large sums for inserting their business cards

or an almanac, or guide-book, or annual OF
one sort or another The by-ways they seek
or that successfully solicit them, are innu-
merable. Likewise, they spenL other large
sums for printing special circulars, and iu
postage to send them. In all this they ir-
more the most essential condition IN alver-
tising, namely. that it has the character and
Effect from the medium through which 1t is
gwen to the reader. Advertisements thrust
into irregular places impress the general
mind that the concern Is OF q similar chlrac-
ter. On the other hand, an advertisement
In general newspaper Of irst-class standing
carries the impression that the advertiser
has a standing in his own community which
aud that he does not shrink from competition
with the best of them. These are the differ
ent impressions that are m .de on all minds
by advertising In journal Of high character

! and whom seen in by-places or low channels.
Every one finds this IN his own feelings, If
he would tut think on the subject. Ii any
one is going to place to buy, whether he
be trader or buying for his own use, anu
has to seek dealers through advertisements,
where will he IooL for them1 To registers,

The congressional committee which
Senator Blaine caused to be sent south
IS running against some ugly facts. 1t
finds that the negro is voting the demo-
cratic ticket from choice. The negro
says he finds the democrats of the south
his true friends and the only ones he has
met with since he became a citizen.
Recognizing this fact, he has sought to
give force to his sentiments at the bal
lot-box. The negro is very apt scholar,
and soon learns who his best friends are, ar
and that 1t is not good policy to oppose
q party which always has been the
champion Of the IaborIng man.

Frenks off a Snmnamhnllst.

Abram Rossiter, medical student in
New York, has habit of walking in his
sleep, and the other night evinced q
singular freak in making bed of large
paving blocks, in the handling of which
he severely bruised finger, yet did not
awaken from his slumber. Happening
to be left aloneiu the early morning and,
while still sleeping, he arose and, clad
only in robe dc mutt, softly stole down
the steps, passed through the parlor,
possessed himself Of piano cover and
an umbrella, opened the window, and
hanging the bright t-colored cover over
the umbrella, 80 that it fell almost to his
bare feet, he strobe down Irving place.
Passing the Westminster hotel, the por-
ter, who was hosing off the pavement,
turned the stream OF water toward the
strange object; but his hand, unsteadied
by fright, could not direct the nozzle,
so he turned and fed. Meanwhile, the
sleepwalker continued his Journey tow.
ard Fourteenth street, reaching which
he carefully folded the piano cover,
lowered the umbrella, and wrapping the
drapery of his gown about him, passed
quickly up Irving place to Nineteenth
street.
By this time his family had been
aroused, and, alarmed by his absence
his brother and his father, each bearing
suit of clothes, started in search of the
young man. The latter had turned into
Nineteenth street, where there are great
quantities of Belgian blocks piled for the
purpose Of paving the street. Abram
gathered lot of these under q tree and
made four regular piles Of them. On
these he placed some boards, and then
spreading his umbrella again placed it
over his head and, shrouding himself
with the piano cover, composed himself
to sleep.
The noise he made in piling the stones
awoke several families, and there we're
quite anumber of astonished people gaz-
ing from out the windows OF the strange
scene when Mr.. Rossiter, Sr., and the
brother came up. Abram was awakened
at word, and was much astonished to
find himself in the strange position. -
While piling the stones he had caught
his finger go severely that it bled pro-
fusely and was quite badly burt, but the
pain did not disturb his slumbers.

The Edelweiss.

Every traveller in Swi itzerland is IA
miliar with the tender star.shaped
flower of this curious plant, whose sage
green blossoms are stuck into tho hat
of every guide, and are collected with
rare ingenuity by the importunate
little rascals who race the carriages on
the road, or start out like rabbits from
the brushes as the pedestrian begins his
solitary climb. The plant is scarce and
very partial. 1t is found in engradine,
seldom in the Bernese Oberland, and
has particular corners and mountains
that it loves to affect. This scarcity
and partiality gave to the edelweiss a
somewhat unhealthy notoriety. The rarer
it became the more ambitious were the
excursionists to obtain sprig. Some
years ago every cockney hat was adorned
with the curious bloom, feathered, as
its botanical name implies, like an old
mans beard, and it was no longer sign
Of patience endurance TO wear this pretty
badge that hitherto had denoted long
climb and patient search.
There have been only one or two very
rare and exceptional cases where the
edelyeiss was induced to live and give
forth flowers in England, and then the
result was only obtained by system Of
nursery that would have worn out the
majority OF botanists. At last the Swiss
government determined to put down by
law the Wholesale destruction OF this
popular flower. 1t was rapidly disap-
pearing al ogether from the country
when an enactment made it penal to
take plant up by the roots. The dig.
nifty and Importance OF legislation gave
new impetus to the interest that was
attached to the plant, and going in
search Of the edelweiss became as attrac-
tive source Of danger as any to be
found in Switzerland. Unaooompanied
by guides and straying from the beaten
tracks, more than one tourist has risked
his life, and several have already been
killed, in the quest,

noticed an exceptionally fiue-loOkiug
peasant, with a wooden.leg, wearing

the cross Of the legion aud several war
medals. Tho emperor rode up to him,
and, addressing him in French said !:

gathered up his reins, and it has been
great pleasure to me to make your
acquaintance. Many thanks, sire, the
honor is altogether mine, rejoined the
gallant Alascian, still standing rigidly at
the salute as the emperor rode Off with
farewell wave of the hand. His ma.

his conversation with this valiant aud
stoutly independent veteran as the
pleasantost episode OF his visit to the
