About Advertising.

My success is owing to the hberality
in advertising Bonner.
The road to fortune is through prin-
ter's ink.-[P. T. Barnum.
Success depends upon liberal patron
age of printing offices.-lJ. j. Astor.
Frequent and constant advertising
brought me all own.-[A. 7. Stewart.
My son, deal with men who advertise.
You will never lose by it, Ben. Frank
lin.
How can the world know a man has
a good thing unless he advertises the
possession of it?-[ Vanderbilt.
Advertising is the oil tradesmen put
in their lamps. They are nwise who
put no oil in.
Where Is ''parts unknOwnP" asks a
correspondent of the Danbury News
10 which Bailey answers "Where they
don't ADVERTISE" And though Bailey
does say it, this is no joke.
An advertisement is a window
through which all the world may look
into your shop and see just what you
wish to see-no more, no less.
People are quite apt to go where their
attention is called, and, If they find
things as represented, will purchase
there in preference to spending their
time in seeking elsewhere.

English Laborer's Wages.

A table has been published con-
tanning the weekly wages paid to
English farm laborers from the year
1900 to the present time, the price
of wheat per bushel during the same
period, the number of days work
required to pay for a bushel of
wheat, and wholesale price of meat.
During the thirteenth century the
wages we're two shIllines-50 Genus
"a week. In the fourteenth they
had advanced about Is cents, and
slowly advanced until they reached
S1.S7 during the last century, md
gradually mounted from that sum
to So rs, the present average. This
increase has been relative as well as
positive. In the thirteenth century
eight and half days work were re
quired for the purchase of a bushel
of wheat. This purchasing power
has constantly increased, until now
two and half days labor will buy
a bushel, though the cost of the
wheat has increased from seventy
cents to $1.46. The year 1900, no.
ted for the scantiness of it's crops,
and for the distress thereby Occa-
stoned, was a temporary exception
to the decline-wheat having risen
to $3.55 a bushel. The price Of
meat at wholesale has risen in six
centuries from six cents to nearly
fourteen cents pound. The gen
eral conclusion to be deduced from
the rable-presuming its correct
ness--is that if English laborerg do
not find subsistence now easier than
formerly, it is because they are not
satisfied to live in the very poor
way with which their ancestors were
forced to content themselves.

Knowing People.

There are always some people in
every community who imagine
themselves, to use a common phrase,
every smart" and they are general
ly of the busybody kind. One OF
these can do more harm in a town
or neighborhood than a dozen good
people can set at right. No minis
ter can come into place but these
smart ones can pick any amount of
flaws in his every day walk, or his
sermons are always too long
or too short, 100 soft or too
hard, or "he can't preach" and a
hundred other imaginary imperfec-
tions, which the less pretentious
never think of mentioning. But
these knowing ones do not stop
here; for no enterprise was ever
started but was contrary to their
views. Other folks never build a
pig pen, a smoke house, a corn crib
or anything else to suit these bab-
blers, and no newspaper was ever
run according to their ideas of bus
mess, "and l won't have anything
to do with it, and I'll keep every
body else from 1t that l can"

A gentleman from North Carroll
ma sent the following letter to ,
friend in the city of Lexington
Kentucky, from the South, as ;
gem of legal wit, which is com
mended to the attention of The
legal community:
HIGH PoINT. n. O., Dec. %, 1877
NeSsrS. John Smith d; Co:
Gents.-In reply to yours of tn,
18th inst, l have to say that, fol
the prospect of having claims
placed in my hands to collect il
this vicinity, and nothing more,
do not feel willing to report the
standing" OF the party mentioned
or of any one else. l do not wish
to be misunderstood as saying l dd
not want paying business, but l do
know that lawyer would starve as
| quick on commissions and fees on
collections, as he would on corncob
soup in January.
81 have had some experience in
collecting since the war, or rather,
in trying to collect. l have offered
to comp. claims by taking old
clothes, frozen cabbage, circus tick
cts, patent medicine, whetstones,
powder horns, old -four barrels,
gOurds, coon skins, jay birds, owls,
or almost anything, and yet l have
number of those claims on hand
unsettled. If l were to depend on
collecting claims for a living, my
bean broth would get so thin that
it would rattle in me like pot liquor
in a poor dog.
81 don't like to shoot at long taw,
but if you are inclined to pay any
thing certain for the desired re
ports, I'm your man, say ten dol
lars cash, then Pm in, or if money
is scarce, l would take shoes, large
Nos, say los, lis, I2s, to the
amount of ten dollars, at wholesale
prices.
alt is hard times here-the mig
gers and the Democrats have pulled
and worried each other till this
country smells like cheese. How
in the world would you collect
money out of people who plough
little speckled balls on hill sides?
If you were to see a niger plough
ing his garden with a SOW, you
would not wonder why 1 don't
want claims to collect in this vicin-
ity. Your sincere friend. j. r. b.

You Must Cure Th at Cough.

III. With Shiloh's Consumptive Cure
you can cure yourself. 1t has estab-
lished the fact that Consumption can be
cured, while for Coughs, Brochitis,
WhOoping Cough, Asthma, and all dis
eases of the Throat and Lungs, it is alb
solutely without an equal. Two doses
will relieve your child of Group. 1t is
pleasant to take and perfectly harmless
to the youngest child, and no mother
can afford to be without it. You can
use two-thirds of a bottle and if what
we say is not true we will refund the
price paid. Price 10cts., Scots. and 81 90

Mans Age.

Few men die of old age. Almost
all die OF disappointment, passion,
mental or bodily toll, or accident.
The common expression. 'choked
with passion" has little exaggera-
tion in it, even though not sudden
ly fatal, strong passions shorten
life. Strong bodied men often die
young; weak men often live longer
than the strong. for the strong use
their strength and the weak have
none to use. The latter take care
of themselves, the former do not.
AS it is with the body, so it is with
the mind and temper. The strong
are apt to break, or, like a candle,

Three things a lady cannot do
First, she cannot pass a milliner's
shop without stopping. Second,
she cannot see a piece of lace with
out asking the price. Third, she
cannot see baby without kissing
it. A lady turns the tables on the
gentlemen as follows: First, he can
not go through the house and shut
the door after him. Second, he
cannot have shirt made to suit
him. THIRD, he can never be salts
fed with the fashions of the ladies.

OUR CHOIR.
There's Jane Sophia ,
And Ann Maria,
With Obadiah,
And Jedeklah,
In our choir.


And Jane Sophia soprano sings
So high you'd think her voice had wings
When she leads off on Sunday;
While Ann Maria's alto choice
Rings out in such harmonious voice
That sinners in the church re loice,
And wish she'd sing till Monday.
And ObadiRh's tenor high
Is unsurpassed beneath TIE sky,
just hear HIM sing "Sweet Bye and-Bye,
And you will sit and wonder;
While Jedekiah's bass profound
Goes down so low it jars the ground,
And wakes the echoes miles around,
Like distant rolling thunder.
Talk not to us of PATHS fame
Of Nicolini's tenor tame,
Of Cary's alto-but q name
Or Whitney's PondeTous bassol
They sing no more ike Jane Sophia,
And Ann Maria, obadiah
And Jedekiah, in our choir,
Than cats sing like IomASol
