%CUPIDITY.

A salesman in one of the large dry goods
stores, recently picked up a worn-out empty
~pocketbook. and thought he would have a
little fun with it. He therefore placed it
on the counter half concealed by the goods
lying thereon. Presently a lady shopper
enters. Her eyes light upon that wallet
as if by instinct, and while pricing half a
score of articles she endeavers to cover it.

handkerchief, then with her satchel, and
again with her parasol; but the salesman,
without appearing to notice her actions,
each time remove the %portmonnaie out
of danger and into the light. Finally, She
adopts new tactics, and picks it up, with
the remark:
Somebody's left a pocketbook.
Yes replied the clerk, interrogatiyely,

and disappears with it for a moment.
Upon his return the lady asks, with a
slight show Of interest;
'Was there much in it -

been used to lying all his life. "And who
will get it if it isn't called for?' asked the
lady.

The lady goes out. In ten or fifteen min

VALUABLE HINTS

The Philadelphia Board of Health have
issued these hints in pamphlet form for
distribution:
f'Though ventilation of dwellings is es-
sential to the health of the occupants,
observe strict cleanliness in your person
and clothing. Bathe daily if you have
the convenience. If not, wash freely with
cold water every day. Change YOU nm
dergarments daily, or as frequently as
your circumstance admit. BE moral,
regular in your habits of life, meals, eN-
ercise and sleep. BE careful to dress COM
fortably for the season, avoid the night
air as much as possible, and when thus
exposed put on al extra garment, and do
not go into the night air when in a state
Of perspiration. Be careful to avoid the
use of alcoholic drinks. Do not suppose
that heir use will prevent the occurrence
of disease. On the other hand. those who
indulge in the custom are always fair sub
jects for disease. and when attacked the in
temperate are particularly in a condition TO
offer feeble resistance.
olive temperately, live regularly, avoid
all excuses in eating crude, raw and in
digestible food, especially cabbage, salad,
cucumbers and unripe fruits. A greater
safety will be secured by boiling all water
used for drinking purposes. Partake OF
well-cooked beef and mutton, rice well
boiled and avoid pastry and laxative fruit.
Take your meals at regular seasons, neither
abstaining too long at a time nor indulg-
ing too frequently. An overloaded
stomach is as much to be dreaded as an
empty one. Avoid bodily fatigue and
mental exhaustion. Lead a calm and
quiet life. Let all exciting causes
be avoided. If you depreSs or impair the
vital forces, it is preiudicial to health. BY
excitement or violent exercise you increase
the susceptibility of the system of disease.
During the prevalence Of cholera do
not neglect even the slightest diarrhoa, no
matter how painless at first
