Advertising Humbugs.

Al shrcwd talker can go through the
country anywhere east or west, and make
a coed living with some snap advertising
scheme, that nine out of ten men would
pronounce fraud at sight. How it is
managed no one knows, but that tits done
every day, nobody questions. The old
idea Of advertising insurance companies on
caIendeEs, almanacs, and blotters, has been
worked in manifold ways by these sharp
ers, until it seems there cannot be any
body il the world green enough to pay
out good money on such venerable spec
ulation. Another smooth talker comes
along with an endless variety Of picture
cards on which business advertisements
can be printed. He talks his way through
town, catches a few credulous dealers. and
disappears Then comes the directory
man, and the man canvassing for state
gazetteer He is ready TO bury every nler-
chants advertisement that he can secure,
where nobody viii ever see il, for i modest
consideration. Each merchant pays him
from S. to $40, and he goes away happy
to do up the next town in the same re-
lentless fashion. lie has scarcely disap-
peared when rival fakir comes along with

No Cinnamon Need Apply.


Occur d'Alene Nugget: We want
Cinnamon, but we want them a long way
off. As cooks they would oftimes be very
acceptable; as laundrymen they would
be convenient; as pack animals on the
trails they would be a bonanza. But they
had better stay away just the same. The
fiat has gone forth that no Celestial can
ever gaze on the woody gulches Of Occur
d'Alene and live. This camp, like Lead
vile, will never feel the curse Of Coolie
cheap labor. There is but one voice up
on the subject. A man who would advo-

The Fools Paradise.

The fools paradise is a place where
the fool-killer buries his dead. As
fools cannot be considered as re-
sponsible for their acts they
cannot be punished fl
purgatory, and yet they can
not be admitted into Heaven.
They are therefore consigned to a
place fitted up specially for them,
where they can ask each ether: rs
this cold enough for your and all
such little intelligent sparkle as
that. There is where those people
90 who breath in the barrels Of a
shotgun or light a kitchen fire
with kerosene.
People who enter this paradise
enter it with great rapidity and
generally in fragments. The outer
court is used mainly for the pur-
pose of asserting and classifying
remains.
This is also the home of the
man who, during life, casually sat
down on a buzz saw to think Of a
hard word.-Bill Nye.
