Freshest Young Man.
Chicago Indie ,,ar.


 Probably the freshest young man in the world IS fresh shoe, music clerk He generally wears his hair pompadour, his mousiache fuzidore, ami waNes the latter lust enough to make his nose turn up IS though his sense of smelling were offended. He IS to be found m nearly every music stoIe Of the average size He has been there jus, long enough to feel solid and know all about the stock. He has two or three clerks unJer him whom he calls kids. When | lady comes into the store from I carriage outside, and rus,les oa, her silks. displays her diamonds and looks hlghtoned enough 10 suit his fasrdious fancy, he serves her with imagined grace. broad smiles ard general forwar6ness. If the customer should be so unfortunate IS ,o wear q cashmere dress, comes in a street car and looks ordinary, this vefitable snob on ten dollars per week calls one of the kids, being careful to scold him before the customer. He always knows wha, you want better than you. and has a patent sarcastic smile which he hestows on any one who has the audacity to tell him he Is mistaken. He has too little respect for the truth ever to acknowledge an error. He will devote m hour to the entertainment, of snowman who has l pass ln his hand, and allow good cus- toner to wait the showman's pleasure or go away without attention. He is never known to accomodate any one without an assurance by them of return sufficient to recompense him fo, his ,rou- bic. He seeks to impress upon the minds of all strangers to the establish men, that he IS the manager, and |, costs him terrible amour, of pride to s,oop to the service of an ordinary customer. although he will turn thirteen summer saulis tor pass 10 minstrel show. He IS very fresh. You will find him wi,hou, looking for him ifyou will go into any music house and state tha, you are the advance agen; fcf a side-show.

A Good Idea.
Wnlianspot, Cru.

l. would be good thing to weigh col lcge degrees by the actual ability of their recipient. The weight could be marked. as thus: Rev. l. C.. Waller, D. D., milligr. pt. ,. The pt :; indicates tha, the trustees were pe,i,ioned for II three years, the recipient himself personally or through his friends getting signatures of request ,ha, his ability mrght be recog- nired. The only drawback io this highly useful degree designation Is the fact that d hos, of inhn;tessimal weights would have te be invented in order to weigh low enough and lot of other abbrevia- tons invented to express the reason for the giving of the degree, as the brother who has a wealthy layn,an in hls church from whom the college expects to get liberal gifts if they degree his pastors. the man whose wife's mother has a fortune by which she nigh, be persuaded to re- member the college, If her dear son-in- law were honored by it. etc, etc

ABOUT STRAWBERRIES.

Now, when shall we plant? Years of ex-
that the last of summer or early in the au-
tum is undoubtedly the best time. About
the fifteenth of August the Young plant is
sufficiently advanced TO be independent OF
the mother plant, as shown by the harden
ing OF the connecting runner, and may be
transplanted at any time until the first of
October. We prefer, however, the waning
heat and moist nights of the earlier part of
September. The best distance apart is for
hand culture, in rows two feet apart, with
plants one and one-half feet apart In the
row tor horse culture make the rows three
feet apart. After marking off the ground,
which should be OF light loamy or sandy
nature, we'll enriched with compost. rotued
stable manure, swamp muck, or best OF all,
leaf mould from the woods plowed or spad-
ed and worked fine even to the depth of ten
or twelve inches, well drained, proceed to
set the plants with dibber or pointed in
strument. Make hole deep enough to set
the roots in perfectly straight. Insert the
plants just to the crown and firm the soil
about them with the dibber, and if dry give
