acquired always brings success in business.
Now, the successful business concerns of the
country have demonstrated that the best place
for an advertisement is in a newspaper of

otherwise for advertising is wasted, whether
it is put in handbi|Is, in Autographs or in cir

made its appearance in the little
town OF Coon Rapids, Ia, where
resides a winsome little maiden oil
ten summers, whose charms are
only equalled by the fckleness of
her disposition. Among the small
boys of the village she has been
acknowledged belle, aud feeling
herself secure of all their hearts
she has not hesitated to play most
cruelty upon their young affections,
tOrtHring them with alternate smiles
and frOwns, and dropping her
latest lover the moment she esDied
another whom she fancied. The
sort of things the youthful swans
endured until their patience finally
gave out, aud so the other day they
held a meeting and passed the fol.

disappointed, mIsgusted aud
ill-treated by a heartless crOquete,
without cause or prOvOcatiOn ;
therefore, be it resolved, that we

grand bounce-that is to say, have
nothing to do with her, not to look
at her or smile on her, or go with
her to any party or place, or treat
her to ice e or lemonade, and
to do everything in u power to
make her feel bad aud miserable for
One year." Unfortunately, there
was one young man of IL mature
who was so astute as to
refuse to join the movement. He
has been basking ever since in the
tickle maIden's smiles without a

necessary to abandon the boycott
