Constituency.

A citizen of the county, whose name
is not Brown, but We will call him
Brown for the present, rs We did him
up 5roscn last Monday. He came into
our Office, and was given a seat, and
called ON for an item of news. He
said he had just seen the "darndest"
tool In the State down at Anderson :
Bazaar. We called for bill Of partic-
ulars. He said "a fellow named Jones
came In and called for pair Of panta-
looms. James Anderson took his
measure and found that size "a would
dit him, AID showed him a pair of the
right size and quality and price Ia suit
In the lot was pair size No. 40; he
asked the price OF that pair and learned
il was the same rs No. "a. and said he
would take that pair. James insisted
on selling him the No. "a, but no 90 I;
he said the other was's larger pair and
had more material In them, all for the
same money, aud he took them" They
are too large and will not fit him, aud
no one but "stark natural" fool would
buya pair Of pants that Were too large
for him for the sake of little more
goods"
We agreed with Mr.. Brown. We
handed him a copy of the HERALD to
look over and inquired II he was sub
scriber. He answered in the negative.
and We solicited him to become a sub
scriber. bat he declined, saying that he
could get the Weekly Courier JON nal
and several other weeklies much larger
and containing much more reading
matter than the HERALD for the same
or less money, and was taking the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. We asked him If
the Enquirer had any news about his
people, his county, his town, his neigh
borhood, anything about the people aud
locality he was interested in, and did il
fit like the HERALD. In other words
was he not "stark natural fool as
well rs Jones, for taking a larger paper
far sake of quantity, although it did
not IT. He saw the "pint," FLUSHED
away back behind Inns ears and said IL
we would not give him away he would
take ii and take copy for his brother
In Illinois, which he did aud swelled our
cash ON hand to the extent of three
dollars.
Now, kind reader, take Lesson from
the above and get the paper or garment
that fits, and do not go off after guam
tity.
