Two Speeches.

A practical joker is Justly served when
his victim pays him in his own coin.
A mong the humors of the "stump" is
told capital instance of this sort of ret
ributiou. The characters in the story
were the late Senator Morton and
General George A. Sheridan, of Lou
isiana.
Some years ago, when Mr.. Morton
he was accompanied by Gen. Sheridan
The Senator's health was at that time
very poor, and whenever he did not feel
equal to making his speech Mr.. Sheridan
took his place.
Upon one occasion both orators were
to deliver speeches, and Mr.. Morton,
who had remarkable memory, by way
of joke delivered Sheridan's speech.
The ground being thus taken away from
under the Generals feet, he was for a
moment nonplussed. Butas soon as the
applause died away he arose and began
to deliver Mr.. Morton's speech.
In this speech Morton discussed the
subject of hard and soft money, and had
a dramatic way of producing silver
dollar and a greenback. Sheridan had
SO often heard the speech that he was
able to initiate it exactly. Thursting his
hand into one pocket he produced a dol
lar note, and holding it up to the audi
ence, exclaimed:
"What is this? Is this money? No,
my fellow citizens, this is not money.
Let me read it to you: "TheUnited
States promises to pay bearer one dol
lar That is not money. That is merely
a promise to pay money"
When Mr.. Morton was making this
speech, and arrived at this point, he
would return the note to his pocket and
produce silver dollar. Sheridan was
about to do the same thing, but found to
his dismay that he had no silver dollar
with him. The audience began to litter
at this, when Sheridan, turning to Nor
ton, who was listening to his own speech,
said:
"Senator, lend me that silver dollar
which you use when you deliver this
speech!'
1t is needless to say that this was as
good as a play to the audience.-IN New
York Sun.

She Preferred a Carriage.

aesthetic mien and close fitting garments
to pretty young lady who leaned con-
fdingly on his arm, as she stepped from
train at the Grand Central Depot last
evening, isn't this nice?" pointing to
the Fourth avenue cars standing inside
the depot, "to have the caws running in
undah the shed. Do you mind that in
Hawtford we had to 60 out into the
muddy road to get on the caws?"
"Oh, yes," was the response, cit is
very nice to have the cars come in here,
but do you know, my DEAR" she said,
giving his arm an extra squeeze, that

A ~ uthern Romance.

Five years ago, a maiden fair, whose
home was at little town near Macon,
Georgia, anxiously awaited an important
letter from her absent lover. The sigh
ing lass haunted the postoffice, but the
postmaster's face always wore that look
of exasperatiug quietude common to
those from whom expected things never
come. The maiden thought her heart
would break, for she realized at last that
her lover was faithless. The scene
shifts. 1t is September, 1881. In Macon
dwells the same lady, but she is now
happy wife with two children. She has
forgotten the faithless one of her days of
woe. She, therefore, is surprised when
from the town of her youth comes letter
bearing as superscription to her maiden
name that derived from her husband.
An accompany note from the postmaster
explains that in tearing away some of the
boards of a letter case the missive was
found. The envelope was postmarked
"1875." The lady spanks the baby to
keep it quiet, while she eagerly devours
the contents. Heavens! 1t is from
John, who proposes in glowing words,
and begs for kind reply. The lady's
husband also enjoys the letter, and, out
of curiosity, communicates with rela-
tives of the former lover. 1t is learned
that he is happy Chicago pork-packer,
with q wife and three sons.

Why II Pays.

A gentleman of Cincinnati, who had
become wealthy through his commercial
business, thus speaks his views on ad.
vertising:
II have cast my minds eye hurriedly
back over my experience in Cincinnati,
and / have pushed business to standing
that it would have taken thirty years to
reach without advertising. In truth, it
is doubtful if could at all attain the
results have without the aid of news
papers. Certainly the great metropoli
tan newspapers are the cheapest aud most
effective means of making your trade
known to the greatest number of people.
Printed circulars may reach possibly
thousand persons whose names you
know-your old customers. Your an
nouncement in a leading journal will
reach hundred thousand readers whom
you never heard of. New dealers COM
ing into the field will see your name and
business, and know where to find you.
The high character of the journal in
which make your announcements will
materially aid you. Your standing ad-
vertisement is standing notification to
buyers that you are alive and there. 1t
is a perpetual letter of introduction
