Ii you have entered u store simpi, to price
goods, do not tell faisehoed in excuse for
not buying. Tell the salesman that YOU are
much obliged to him. but YOU olly came in
TO inquire on behalf Of friend.
The best rule, however, is never to go in
to store without getting something, how
ever small. A few patterns, for instance
You may not need them at present, Lu,
some day you may want to make patchwork
for church fair.
If you have any punched silver pieces put
them forward first. If the salesman tells
you that they don't take punched coin, say
tEat you got it there the day before. Un-
less he is as good at lying as you are, you
will have the best of him.
After taking the clerks time for an hour
or so, never neglect to say before going that
you will call again. If you do not, the clerk
will not complain. 1t is no harm to break
your word when you thereby give pleasure
to another.
After you have purchased what you want
ed. sit and chat with the salesman for
while. People who are waiting to buy will
forget their impatience in contemplation Of
your remarkable conversational powers.
In buying shoes or gloves, always give the
size of your foot or hand several numbers
smaller than it is. This will not only de-
ceive those within earshot, but it will help the
clerk TO earn his wages by extra work.
lfyou are a gentleman, Of course it is un-
necessary to remind you that you should
tiirt with the saleswomen and, If you are a
lady, II is equally needless to tell you to i'm
press upon the young women the vast differ
ence between those who have to work for
living and yourself, who get kind of living
without working for it.

The triple murder perpetrated few weeks
since in the quiet town of laconia, in this
State, had It's inspiration in the rum jig, ac
cording to the criminals confession.
The man who sold the liquor has not
been prosecuted, and probably will not be.
The man who drank il, and under its IN
fiuence committed crime, is now in Jail and
will probably be publicly executed, and ought
To be.
Some two weeks ago, store was entered
in this town. and safe blown open and
robbed Of its contents-seven thousand dol
lars in bonds and about sixty in money. The
burglars were arrested the next morning in
New Haven. CT. One of the men made his
escape by overpowerlng the officer. he
other burglar was examined, found guilty
and delivered up to the authorities of this
State. He is Jailed IN keene, having failed
to procure $4,000 bond He will be
tried in April. The escaped burglar had
the bonds and threw them away. They
were found by an honest boy and returned
to their lawful owner There are certainly
some honest people in this world; yes, many
compared with the villains that are bent on
committing crime. II. ME.

Rules For Shopping.


A, the pleasure associated with buying is
far greater than that of possession " hen
starting out on shopping tour, YOU should
enter thereupon with a mind perfectly un-
biased BY previous choice. By not know
ing what YOU want, YOU will be the long er
in choosing, and the longer YOU are n
choosing. the more shopping YOU get for
a given expenditure Of money.
TO be sure, YOU will probably purchase
something that YOU don't want, and some
thing which loses its attractions as soon as
it is divorced from the shopkeeper's counter ;
but then the things you did and do want
must still be purchased, thus necessitating
more shopping, or-which is the same thing
more pleasure.
1t gives pleasure also to the salespeople
to wait upon customers who come upon
them with purchasing minos in state OF
chaos. Salespeople are sociable race, and
love to have customers come and chat as
long possible, especially in the busy sea-
son.
1t sometimes happens, however, that the
salesman. forgetful Of all else in the fascina-
ton Of your presence and your conversation
will inadvertently show you articles that no.

YOU into buying articles hitherto considered
unsalabe. But do not blame him. Re.
member that you are the innocent cause OF
his Torgetfuness and remember, also, that
long after YOU are gone he thinks of YOU
with increased pleasure.
Never be in hurry TO buy. Patience is
virtue, and YOU can do no greater service
especially during the busy season, than b,
assisting shopmen to exercise that virtue
When you enter store, rush impetuous-
ly up to the counter, and make your want.

gaining in progress with those who are al

an idea Of your superior importance, anc
they will respect you accordingly Th.
salesman, Of course, will drop everything anC

Never pay the price named without asking
if that is the lowest and if they won't TAXI
