The recent attempted assassination of
Edwin Booth recalls an incident that
occurred while that tragedian was play
ing his lust engagement in this city, and
which is the real origin of the rumor
that he intends never to visit the Pacific
coast again.
1t seems that one morning while Mr..
Booth was making his toilet in his room
ut the Palace, the door quietly opened,
and Il wide-awake-looking Individual
slid in and cheerfully bid the astonished
actor good morning.
"H0w's Hamlet to-day?" said the
stranger, blandly. "'Fraid you wouldn't
see me if l sent my card up, SO just
dropped in informally, rs it were"
80 l see," said the only 'Iago.'
"What can l do for you?"
THE fact is, Mr.. Booth" said the
visitor, hurriedly, Il am the advertis-
ing agent for the Bazembees' Auction
house, on Market street. Cheapest
clearinghouse in the civilized world.
Over $4,000 ulsterS at"
Don't want any ulstcrs. Can't look
tragic in coat with fifteen ridiculous
pockets. Avaunt! thou"
"But I don't want to sell you any, my
dear sir" put in the agent; just come
to make you regular business PROPOSE
tion. Coin in it, my dear sir; coin in
it."
But, zounds, sirrah, l am an actor
not IN auctionecr!"
"That's exactly it. You know we
agents are always up to some new adver-
tising dodge OF other. l attended your
performance last night, Mr.. Booth, and
it oc -.rred to me if you would only in
troduce some mention of our establish
ment into your lines, we could afford to
pay very literally for it."
Gould, eh?" said the hope of the
American stage.
"Ycs. You see you might gracefully
wedge in an allusion to us here and there,
where it would seem kinder natural and
appropriate like For instance, there's
Hamlet Instead Of giving simply the
| lines customary suits of solemn black,
YOU might add, the kind they sell at
Bazembees' for S24' That would sort of
nail the attention of the audience, seems
to me-"
q should think so," said the star.
stealthily edging over toward Roman
sword in the corner.
u see you catch the idea continued
the agent. Now, there's Romeo and
Juliet There's dead loads of good
chances in that. In the balcony scene
you might say, I would I wore one of
Bazembees' cheap dog-skin gloves upon
that hand that l might touch that
cheek"
You'd like that, would you ?" grimly
inquired Mr.. Booth, slowly unsheathing
the sword behind his back, and getting
in front of the door.
Yes, sir; we shouldn't mind 800 Il
night to have that done in first-class
style. Just think how it would make
trade boom down ut our place to have
you thunder rs 'Othello - DESMOND,
whcreis the elegant kcrchiefI bought for
thee ut BaZembees', ut six bits u doZen?'
Why, sir, it would fairly"
There was 4 funeral from the agents
house the next day, and in Difference to
the last wishes of the martyr to adver-
tising, his hearsc bore on each side Il
splendid canvas inscription:
Just arrived 81, 900 more boys suits

De,l Gently with the stomach.


II it proves refractory, mild discipline is the
thing to set it right. Not MI the nauseous
draushts and boluses everinvcnted can do half
as much to remedy its disorders as few wine-
glassiuls-say, three day-ot Hostetters s
Stomach Bhtcrs, which will afford it speedy
relief, and eventually Danish every dyspeptic
and billions symptom. Sick headache, ner-
vousness, sallowness OF the complexion, fur
upon the tongue, vertigo and these many in
describabo and disagreeable sensations caused
by indigestion, are too often perpetuated by
iniudicious dosing. An immediate abandon
mert of such random and ill-adyised expert
ments should be the first step in the direction
OF n cure; the next step the use OF this stand-
ard tonic Alternative, which has received the
highest medical sanction and won unprcce-
dentcd popularity.

Words Of Wisdom.

The freer you feel yourself in the
presence Of another, the more free is he.
The way to gain good reputation is
to cndeavor to be what you desire to ap-
pear.
Men resemble the gods in nothing so
much as in doing good to their fellow
creatures.
Few persons have sufficient wisdom to
prefer censurc, which is useful to them,
to praise, which deceives them.
None are so seldom found alone and
are so soon tired of their own company
us those coxcombs who are on the best
terms with themselves.
CONDUCT.
Have more than thou showest,
Speak less than thou knowest,
Lend less than thou owest.
1t is with antiquity rs with ancestry:
nations are proud Of the one, and in
dividuals of the other. But if they are
nothing in themselves, that which is
their pride ought to be their humiliation.
When we are young we are slavishly
employed in procuring something where
by we may live comfortably when we
grow old; and when we are old we per-
ceive it is too late to live Us we pro-
posed.
A physician is not angry at the in
temperance of Il mad patient, nor does
he take it i'll to be rallied at by man in
fever. Just so should u wise man
treat all mankind us physician does his
patient. and look upon them only rs
sick and extravagant.
Ask the man Of adversely how other
men act toward him; ask those others
how he acts toward them. Adversely is
the true touchstone of merit in both :
happy if it docs not produce the dis
honesty of meanness in one, and that of
insolence and pride in the other.
The most agreeable of all companions
is II simple, frank man, without any
high pretensions to IN oppressive great
ness; one who loves life and understands
the use of it; obliging alike ut all hours
above all, of a golden temper and stead
fast us IN anchor. For such an one we
gladly exchange the greatest genius, the
most brilliant wit, the profoundest
thinker.
What is beauty? Not the show
OF shapely limbs and features. No.
| These are but flowers
That have their dated hours
TO breathe their momcntary sweets, then go.
''Tis the stainless soul within
That outshincs the tairest skin.
Everybody is impatient for the time
when he shall be his own master; and,
if coming of age were to make one so, il
years could, indeed, "bring the philo-
sophie mind" it would rightly be a day
of rejoicing to q whole household and
neighborhood. But too often he who is
impatient to become his own master,
when the outward checks are removed,
merely becomes his own slave.
