We all know that volumes might be
written ON the mighty subject, "How
not to do it," 1t is a subject on which
we all have practical eXperience--in our
own persons if we are lazy, stupid or
awkward; in the persons of others if
we are energetic, clever or capable. If
one had to compose an epitaph for q
man of whom one desired to say moth
ing, then how not to write it might be-
come difficult. In such dilemma,
many years ago n Sussex Squire found
himself. He had bailiff, whom he
had discovered to have indulged in all
kinds of malpractices. This unjust
steward had robbed his master in every
possible way, and when detected was
dismissed. Whether he could dig or
whether he was not ashamed to beg,
history sayeth not His master, when
bidding him be gone, added these
words: "For the sake of your wife and
family will do nothing to you, but aft
er your death will punish you severe
ly." 1t may be supposed that the
bailiff did not trouble himself much
about this threat. But it was carried
out. The man died. the master took
ON himself the task of erecting his tomb
stone and OF composing his epitaph,
which was as follows:

from mouth TO mouth and became fal

could hardly, with any regard to publ,

Marrying by Telegraph.


A marriage by telegraph took place
in Chicago Fort Worth day or two
ago. There seems TO be something
rather cold and unsatisfactory IN these
marriages by wire. The bride and
groom are too far apart TO realize, eX'
cept by champion effort of imagina-
ton, that they were married at all.
How does the groom know how many
objectionable fellows are kissing the
bride. and how does the bride know
that her bran-new husband doesn't go
off to visit some other girl an hour,
after his marriage? Hearlless and
mercenary marriages might be well
enough by telegraph, but where the
marriage is one of affection people
about to marry might reasonably pre-,
fer to have the ceremony performed
while they are in pretty close proxim-
jty with each other. Moreover, a
honeymoon by telegraph can hardly
be compared, 1t is said, with honey
moon in the old-fashioned way. Al
together it is probable that the preJu-
dice in favor OF marriages on oid-time
principles will never permit the teie-
graph companies TO realize much rev.
en,ie from marriages by wire.

hardware and various other brands OF
trade having been very little affected.
During this time the money market in
New York has been very easy, and the
money markets of Chicago and St.
Louis not ut all stringent. The his
tory is about as follows: AS soon rs it
was well established fact that the
crops of the country were good, stocks
in the hands Of retailers being low, the
retailers of the whole country visited
the wholesale centers and bought very
freely from the 18th of August to the
18th of October. Nothing in trade had
ever been known to equal the demand
for goods. Merchants and merchants
clerks worked all day and the greater
portion of the night; good profits were
obtained; they all thought good pros
poets were ahead and all were happy.

of November they all got tired of rest

their ideas of the value of goods that
would not sell began to deteriorate.
They sent theiragents into the country
to find out what was the matter, and
they wrote back: "Trade is dull; the
weather Is too warm and pleasant;
merchants have got all the goods they
want" Now about this time COM
menced series of failures, and the AS
signees and auction houses commenced
TO break prices. Finally the 18th of
November came. Trade was still dull
aud the dealers in all kinds of winter
goods began TO reduce prices TO push

less rather than take the chances of
carrying over goods. About ten days
