An Open Letter.

Two years ago the adul--
teration of cigarettes was
brought to our notice, and
after looking into the matter,
we were satisfied that of all
the millions of cigarettes an
nually sold, almost all con-
tanned opium and other drugs.
This being the case we COM
menced a series of expensive
experiments, to ascertain
whether cigarette could be
made that would meet the ap-
proval of a critical public, and
at the same time be absolutely
pure, made from the purest
and best leaf tobacco, entirely
free from all drugs and adul-
'erations and covered with
that great rarity. pure rice
paper.
After long and patient ex-
perimenting, we succeeded in
producing Il cigarette which
fulfilled all these requirements
and on July Is, 1881, we
commenced advertising in all
the Chicago daily papers.
Such was the popular demand
in Chicago, for BLAcKwELL's
BULL DURHAM CIGARETTES.
that we were unable to sup
ply it, and for months our
factory was taxed to its
utmost capacity to fill or
ders from that section. The
unprecedented demand there
prevented our pushing the
cigarettes in other parts of
country, unrrl we could largely
increase our facilities for
manufacturing
This delay has been taken
advantage Of by some un-
scrupulous manufacturers who.
jealous of our success in Chi
cago, have gone to distant
points, and by stealing oar
Thunder" have endeavored to
create a trade. Success al
ways brings imitators and imi-
tation is best proof of the
merit of the original.
Our facilities for manufac-
turing are now equal to any
demand. and in introducing
our goods here we make this
statement, that you may un-
derstand that we are not fol-
lowing in the lead of any
other manufacturer.
We shall publish statements
from leading dealers in Chi
cago, showing that though un-
known there seven months
ago, BLACKwELL's BULL DUR
HAM CIGARETTEs are now the
leading brand in that market,
and though introduced by ad-
vertising, they have since held
the first position from merit
alone, thus proving that these
cigarettes arc what the public
want. More Of our cigarettes
have been sold iii the last
seven months in Chicago alone
than the entire product of
certain manufacturers who
have copied our methods Of
pushing the sale Of our goods.
Our firm is well known in
the South, and iii presenting

putation that they are made

upon Attorney General Brewster for the pur-

1T Was the Oat,n

A good story is told of an Orange Co.
boy who drives milk route in New
York city. Itsecms he had one wealthy
customer that he served early by lifting
a barred basement window and pouring
the milk into pail with long spout.
One morning when he was late, in push
ing the pail back to close the window
he upset it, the pail falling into the
room, and the milk spilling all over the
floor. He was in trouble. He had no
time to call the girl and wait for her to
appear. He started on his route, expect
ing to lose that customer surely. But
while serving his next customer he saw
a cat in the area way. An inspiration
seized the milkman. The inilkman
seized the eat He thrust her between
the bars into the room where the spilled
milk lay, and drove on. Later in the
day he returned to the house, as request
ed to do by q note in the pail in the
morning asking him to ''leavc tickets =
The servant girl came running out, say
ing, 20, Johnny, we must have four
quarts more Of milk. A nasty cat got
in the house and spilled oil the milk you
left. Just look at the carpet! The mis-
tress was awfully mad. / Thought I
should lose my place. \ The milkman
looked his blankest amazement, and
sympathizingly counted out his tickets
and measured out the milk, saying, .sAc-
cidents would happen sometimes" The
customer was saved.

Little Deceptions.

In dealing with children, little decep-
tions should be scrupulously avoided.
1t is not enough to speak the truth; our
whole behavior to them should be sim
cere, upright, fair, and without artifce;
and it is experience alone thatcan prove
the excellent effects that viii result from
such a course Of conduct. Let all who
are engaged in the care of children con-
slider it duty of primary, of essential,
Importance never to deceive them, never
to employ cunning to gain their ends or
TO spare present trouble. Let them not,
for instance, to prevent q fit Of crying,
excite expectation Of pleasure which
they are not certain can be procured, or
assure . child that the medicine he must
take is nice, when they know to the
contrary. II q question be asked them,
which they arc unwilling or unable to
answer, let them freely confess it, and
beware Of assuming poweror knowledge
which they do not p6ssess;S for all arti-
fee is not only sinful, but is generally
detected even by children, and we shall
experience the truth of the old proverb:
"a cunning trick helps but once, and
hinders ever after" It is wonderful
how soon children learn to distinguish
between truth and artifce, and how
easily their confidence is shaken.

One voyage in the Doldrum my old

upon plan that helped us: He had the
half Of the table next the coffee prepared
for them, put the things on that they
liked, and they took their meals by them

In the dead of winter, and when the

do their courting and how they per-
form the marriage ceremony, which
seems more like horse trade than
a marriage. There are exceptions
to this way Of marrying 1t some
times happens that an Indian falls
in love with maiden whose parents
object to the union. In case OF
this kind the lovers elopc. The
girls parents are necessarily angry
and rave around and threaten to for
cibly take ponies from relatives OF
the young man. OF course, the said
relatives object to this proceeding,
and after tie outraged parents have
INDUCED in the proper amount OF
Indignation, compromise on much
better terms than could have been
made before the elopement Some
times an Indian who has fallen in
love with a maiden, is not able TO
show the wealth necessary to get her.
In such case the young man will
agree to serve his father-in-law, by
herding ponies and killing game.
In the past ten years, the Indian
ideas of marriage have undergone
some changes. AS many as ten
Christian marriages have taken
place among them. A few years ago,
an Indian would take great pride in
saying that he had several wives ;
now, few will own that they have
more than one wife. When the buf-
falo were plenty, the Indian who was
a good hunter could employ a num-
Der of wives in tanning robes Since
this source Of revenue has been cut
off, the Indian does not want more
than one wife to buy calico and
shaWls for.
To show the progressive spirit Of
the Indian youth, / will relate an in
cident that | was personally know
ing to-. When in charge OF the Arap-
ahoe school few years ago, [ was

boys about their future prospects,
and among other things, showed
the advantages of marrying a girl
who had been to school, and who
had learned to keep house ike a
white woman. With wife from
one of the schools, they could 90 on
he white mans road much more
easily than they could with a wife
up in camp. The boys lis
ened with much interest, and when
had finished speaking they held a
consultation among themselves. In
| short time one of the boys said
We have been talking about what
you said and think the idea a good
me; but to make sure that our
,lothes will be we'll washed and our
cooking properly done, wo have de-
