The game of "bean guessing" strikes as
very Interesting and innocent parlor
81 amusement. A lady holds the full of her
Or hand, and if you guess the correct number
's you are privileged to kiss her. When
'e you have made the guess, if the number
is too large, not infrequently, the lady
II unconsciously drops two or three Of them
rt into her lap before she holds out her hand
r. for you to verify the count This is said
70 to be the very latest sport, and it is game
that we will plank up our last dollar on.

the past few years, by diligent application,
hammered out over the blacksmith anvil
= a comfortable bone, handsome business
- block, and small farm. Mr.. s. is yet but
,. a young man and the results of his toll
j, are positive proof of what the American
boy can secure to himself if he will but
make the proper application.

his weary bones had no sooner found their
equilibrium tnan he bounded into the mid
is die of the room with an exclamation that
'y savored not of piety. Some wicked and
ne designing person had piled his bed full OF
10, old oyster cans, se-brushes, brick-bats
he stove-wood with slivers on, and sundry
is other rubbish not akin to feathers.
~ The Best and Cheapest Paint.
1t is sometimes difficult for people to
or know just what paint to use which will
W prove the best and cheapest in the end, as
'h there are so many different brands recon-
III ended and sold as first class paint. Now,
'h we believe the best paint, and that which
IL is the cheapest, and covers the most sur
VI. face, and gives good, never fading and
a' brilliant colors, and when exposed to all
le kinds of weather will not scale or chalk of
and will keep the wood we'll covered and
in protected for to 10 years. Paints, with
al all of the above qualities, you will find to
al be the Rail Road Paints and Diamond
