SWELL don't mean that many people come in

"How does that happenW
"Ill tell you of an instance One rainy day
last week very stout lady came in here and
wanted to get pair of shoes. After looking at
several pairs she selected one to try on. I'M
buttcned her shoe for her and tried to put on the
one she had picked out, but. though evidently of
the size she wore found it impossible to put it
on. The difficulty was easily seen. Her stock
ings were damp, and told her that it would be
impossible to fit her foot while she had on those
stockings.
40, 1 thought of that she said, and pro-
vded myself with an extra pair at the same
time displaying q small parcel she held in her
hand.
Il told her she had better put them on, and
retired to the back of the store to give her a
chance Hearing nothing from her, after few
minutes had elapsed, / ventured to glance
around, and saw that she was in awkward
predicament. The fact was, she was too IA. and
too tightly laced to put on her own stockings

feet, and the ludcrous sidelong chances she cast

her for minute or two, although my duty in
the case was clear enough. You see l was there
to sell this lady pair Of Shoes and if she
bought them she mrct have on dry stockings
and it was plain that if she wore dry stockings
some one would be obliged to put them on for
her. So, like hero, marched UP to where she
was sitting. What with her exertions and the
modification she felt, her face was the color of
q we'll boiled lobster. and I have doubt my
own beautiful phiz was no faint reflex of that
kind
Scan I assist you, madam" said T. in the
politest tone could muster
Yes, you can assist me. Pull off those
stockings and put this pair, and be quick
about it, she ordered, speaking quite savage

get her feet into the dry pair; then / left her
again. When l came back got on the shoe we
had tried before without any trouble Well,
she took the shoes-they were Sc pair-paid

we were to blame for the display she had made.

A WAREHOUSE BURNED.
Destruction of BurdsalPs Paint Warehouse
Early This Morning.

The frame warehouse adjoining the main build
ing of Burdsall's paint shops, South Pennsylva-
MIA street, was almost totally destroyed by fire at
an early hour this morning An alarm from Box
81 was sounded at half past o'clock, and was
quickly succeeded by a second alarm
from 63. The fire was discovered
by the barkeeper in Monngers saloon,
and before the alarm could be given the flames
had spread until the entire structure.
which is only few feet in
the rear of the main building, was
in blaze In addition to the paints and ma
terial kept in the warehouse, part of it was
used as stable, where the teams of the firm
and large quantity of hay and
feed was stored. The flames quickly
spread to this part of the building.
and before the fire department reached the scene
two mules and one horse had persisted. The fire
came near spreading to the main building,
where the oils and paints were stored, but
the firemen, by hard work, prevented this The
warehouse and its contents, however, could not
be saved, and it is total loss. A large
quantity of imported paints were Kept in
the building, and were destroyed, together with
valuable wagon, besides the burning
Of the mules and horse. The
loss is estimated at about $4,000, which
is, it is believed, covered by insurance, but no
definite information could be obtained this
morning, Mr.. A. Burdsall, the senior partner,
is in New York. The origin of the fire is not
known, but it is supposed to have been due to
spontaneous combustion.

In prize essay on the philosophy of pruning,
Mr.. J. T. White, of Boone county. Missouri,
gives the following rules: Always leave an inch
of wood beyond the terminal bud, and let the cut
be on the opposite side from the bud always cut
upward, and in sloping direction; prune so as to
make but few wounds, and cut the surface smooth
as possible in cutting out an old branch prune
even to the stem, that the wounds may heal over
quickly; prune so as to obtain the quantity of
fruit desired from tina smallest number of stems.
