How lie was Cured ofSwearins

John came in and inquired whether
dinner was ready, and was told it
was not.
"Well, why in the devil isn't it,"
said he.
Because" she coolly replied, ''the
wood was so id wet that the fire
wouldn't burn"
why, Mary, what is the matter
with you? Are you crazy or have
you been drinking?"
Neither" she said, and quietly
proceeded to put on the dinner.
The beef didn't melt like butter
between the teeth-it rather resisted
all attempts at ~mastication, like so
much ln~dia-rubber; and finally John
clustered out:
"What makes this id beef so in
formally tough?" Mary looked up
archly and replied:
"Well John, l suppose you went
down to the butchers and without
knowing the difference, picked out a
piece of some Cd id old stag that
hadn't been fed for a month"
John jumped up, looked at his wife
in dlsmay, and wanted TO know what
such language from her lips meant.
1T mean just this, John; you
are the head of the family, and just
as long as you think it manly to
swear in my presence l intend to do
the same! If you don't like to hear
it you know how to prevent it."
The cure was radical, and to this
date Mary has never been compelled
10 administer another dose OF DR..
rs prescription.

Chandler and Logan! Good to
run between drinks.
Grant and Settle! Good for q
storm, but a little stale Just now.
Blaine and Foster! How would
that read on the banners of 1880?
Garfield and Harlan! Pulpits and
politics a little musty for the keen
appetite of 1880.
Hawley and MacVeagh! Respec-
liability in chunks, but a little OIL
color with carpetbaggers.
Conkling and Kelly! Both from
one State and objected by a slight
constitutional impeachment, but Conk
ling could be charged to Rhode Is
land, and then the trouble could he
obviated. Swallow tails and short
hairs ; there you have them!
Sherman and Don Cameron
There's a ticket for ''the boys" Ii
won't distract two families by the
mlseries of a campaign, and there
would DO faith among the office bri-
gade in the kangaroo limbs of the

sylvania is boiling over about it, but
the machine would relieve the people
OF all responsibility. How Uncle
John and Nephew Don would rhyme

Rules for Shopping.

Purchasers should, as far as possible,
patronize the merchants of their own
place. 1t is poor policy to send
money abroad for articles which can
be bought as cheaply at home.
Do not take hold of a piece OF
goods another is examining. Wait
until it is replaced upon the counter
before you take it up.
Injuring goods when handling,
pushing aside other persons, lOung-
ing upon the counter, whispering,
loud talk and laughter, when in 6
store, are all evidences of i'll breed.
ing.
Never attempt to ''beat down
prices while shopping. If the price
does not suit, go elsewhere. Th,
just and upright merchant has bu'
n price for his goods, and he viii
strictly adhere to 1t.

Advertise.

Bread is the staff of life, so is adj
vertising the staff of business.
Blessed are they who do not adver-
tise for they shall rarely be troubled
with n customer.
You can't eat enough in u week to
last you a year, and you can't aGver-
tise on that plan either.
Business can go without advertis-

sing, but in both cases it is hard
work.
No bells ring so loud as good adj
vertising. People are more apt to
heed what they read than what they
hear.
Those who take the lead in pushing
their business through the newspa.

thing else.
If you don't mean to attend to
your business, and prefer a slender
income while your neighbors grow
rich, it won't pay TO advertise.
Judicious advertising is sure to
bring large returns, to increase youl
business reputation, to add to your
acquaintance.
If you haven't business, advertise
If you have business, advertise. il
is a ''poor rule that won't work both
ways" A place well advertised is
known to many, while one not adver.
tised is only known to Il few passers'
by.
Quitting advertising in dull times
is like pulling down a dam when the
water is low. When trade revives
it will rush by him who does not stay
it with ready customers. The way tc
have such always on hand is through
advertising.
