NEW YORK, Oct. Sth, 1888.
MIR D B. HAMAKER,
Dear Sir In answer to Your favor
of the 9Th, we would say that the first class manu-
fa,:ture,S do not sell their goods to travelling auc
tinners directly or indirectly, but In some manner
hey get hold of a few OF lhem which they put III
their window with a big placard and use the names
ely in their advertising. but they seldom never
sell these gondS
Plated goods that are manufactured expressly for
auction purposes are generally of the VileSt sort
with about silver enough to last until they get
ont of town: and we have heard of cases where cas-
ters pur BASED at auction have got tired Of sra d.
ing UP '&fd have sGHattad down from their OWE
weakness. then when the purchaser goes to get his
money 6eflnded he finds that the auetoneer. who
warranted the goods so gliply, has left town
Ibis auction business was pretty thoroughly
stamped out by Mi. Fricker in Danville, Va who
expos the whole business and made it SO hot that
hey left We have also heard OF parties in MOI folk
Va, who were most b autifully taken in and
swindled by bu.ing plated goods at auction. Plated
goods. above all othrs, do not show their quality
the tace of the gOods-the only test is iime-and
people are worse than fools who buy such goods,
except frsm regularly established dealers. when
they may find if the goods fail to give satisfaction.
You had better write to Mr.. Fricker and let him
send You a pamphlet he got out. which had the
good effect OF busting these men out Of his town,
and certainly hope that the good people Of Staun
ton Will not be guled out of their money.
Respectfully yours.

Summer Houses That Become
TireSOme.

a gentleman from Detroit was telling
me few days ago about summer houses
and the slight hold they have upon their
owners. Said he: cat the southwest
ern end of Lake Erie are several beauti-
ful islands, cool in summer, surrounded
with good fishing and as we'll adapted
for villas as the thousand islands. From
Cleveland and other points around the
lakes people have come to these islets
and put up houses frequently costing
s2,OoO, as timber is very easily obtained
there directly from the Michigan forests
by water. The first season they ARE re-
.eiced with the villa and wonder they
never had it before. The next season
they find it to be of "a certain sameness
and the young ladies begin to say that
they have no company unless they in
vie 1t down. The third season the idea
OF that villa gets to be like an i'm mperutiYe
command to come and be a captive
Complaints increase. and the fourth sea
son, perhaps they go off to Europe, and
probably do not return for years, and
want to sell the summer house." Some
what similar are experiences close by.
The late William Garrison put up the
inest house in the region OF Long
Branch, costing, it is said with the land, ,
Sl25, 900. This summer it is not occu-
pied at all, and the widow and family
are in Europe and want to sell the place.

Home Husbands the Best.

When Nellie Grant, says the New
York World-sweet little demure Mel
lie Grant-was married to an English
dude with base-b ball head, named Al
gernon Sartoris, nearly everybody in
the country said, in view Of all that
General Grant had done to save the
Union, that it was pity his daughter
could not have fastened her affections
upon a thrifty young citizen of the
United States. But the dear girls all
have fancy for foreign swells, so Nell
lie married the Sarto7is. And now the
Sartoris has turned up as the lover of
the charming Mrs. Bush, who has an
aged husband, ard who has large liquid
blue eyes and who dresses her hair in
wavelets. Great is the scandal, because
the Grants are conspicuous people,
and the little Sarsoris, who looks like
an ana English Jeemess Iel'ownlus !,
mas been wen auvertr.-d.
There is a moral in ali this which must
not be lost. Perhaps the Sartoris has
done no worse than native American
would have done if he had married into
the Grant family; but, girls, you are all
pretty, and We think all the world of
down deep in your mlnds-don't marry
foreigners. Fight shy of the adventure
ers who come across the water seeking
wives. In nine cases out of ten these
marriages turn out badly. Resolve,
dear girls, to mary none but American
citizens and don't marry then unless
you are remarkably we'll acquainted

The OH Stove Trade.

''The season for the sale of oil stoves
has just begun" dealer said "and if
we may judge from last years exper-
ience we shall have an immense trade.
The manufacture of oil stoves is distinct
lively an American industry; it had its
origin and growth here, and has been
perfected here. Practical oil stoves
were first invented about fifteen years
ago, but the trade did not amount to
anything until six or seven years ago
About that time inventors began to over
come the objections to them. The COM
bustion Of the oil was made perfect, so
that the disagreeable smells were obvi-
ated, the danger from gas explosions
was removed, and the consumption of
oil was reduced to a minimum. Then
the trade began to spread out. Stove
manufactures noticed a decrease in the
summer sales of rangers and cook stoves
and rightly contributed it to the oil
stoves, Seeing that nothing could stop
the OF, stove trade, they all took it up.
Where oil stoves We're then made only
by few special lists, they are now made
at nearly every stove factory
in the country. Competi-
ton has greatly improved
the article. On the best oil stoves one
can boil, fry, broil, bake. in fact do any
thing that can be done on range, and
that without the heating of the room or
the trouble of buildinga coal fire. When
the work is done the fire is extinguished
and the expense stopped. At the same
time we can heat room if we want to.
We have sheet iron drums to fit any
style. You would be astonished to see
how quickly one drum on a twoburner
stove will heat room. Here is a two
burner stove. 1t cost 81. My wife does
all the cooking for a family of four grown
persons with one like it.: An average
for three months shows that she used
inst one quart of oil day. 1t would
easily burn two quarts if not managed
economically. Any one who will use
the fire only when it is needed can do
as we'll. We made 10000 last year, It
is safe to say that 100000 stoves, large
and small, were made. The export
trade takes carloads. They are shipped
to every civilized country, and to many
shat are not civilized. China, Japan.
the Indias, South and Central America
all take large invoices. Tho Boston
