who has the goods the people want at the
right prices; each successive advertise
ment that he puts in gains an impetus and
influence from the original one and so it
counts up until the name of the firm gets
what is equivalent to the good wilp of q
successful business, besides deriving the
direct profit from immediate sales caused
by the advertising.
"To advertise well, a merchant should
give as much care to his newspaper space
as he does to any other department of his
business. As q general thing merchant
can we'll afford to spend in newspaper ad-
vertising from one-third to one-ffth the
amount of all his other total expenses. If
man in business talks as earnestly
through his newspaper when he is address
ing one or two hundred thousand people,
simultaneously, as when he Is talking to
one customer, he cannot fail to make
success of newspaper advertising.-Ph'ta-
delphia Nears.
HINTS For THE HUsBAND.-Granting
that wife owes duty, loyalty and obedi-
ence to her husband, has she not right to
demand a great deal in return? His conf
dence she surely should receive, if worthy
of it. "A serious source of matrimonial
trouble is concealment practiced by hus-
band concerning his movements when
away from home, especially if any of
them, however really innocent in them
selves, are capable of looking otherwise,
and, through the want of full knowledge,
are also ca pable of being misinterpreted
by his wife, if she has any hint of them
at all. If it is his own affair, and is unfit
for his wife to know, then it is generally
to be assumed that it is an affair in which
he has no right to be engaged, and his
Wife's acquaintance with it means ruined
happiness; if it is another mans affair,
then equally he has no right to mix with
it if it excludes his wife from his conf
dence in its regard, has any influence upon
his own conduct or obligations, or is able
to give her one distressing suspicion of
any kind-suspicion of either wrOng-doing
on the husbands part, so often madness to
a loving wife, or of his interests entering
into something from which she is shut out,
which is almost equally disheartening and
disturbing. A worthless wife might not
deserve trust; but the wife who has made
her husbands interests unselishly her
own, is stabbed to the quick by the want
of confidence. The wife's feelings here
have right to be regarded, even when
they seem to be unreasonable; where the
affections are involved the reason will not
always answer to the call, and it is better
that reason should not be required to assert
dence Of the senses. A deeper reason tells
her that, if he loved her, he could find no
happiness in the secret side of matters
where she does not enter, and hopeless
misery is the certain result.
BREAKING ON THE WHEEL.-Refering
to the notice recently published by some
German papers about the last execution
at the stake in Berlin, which took place
On the 18th of August, 1856, the Vienna
Algen,eine Zeit,nag reminds its readers
that the cruel practice of "breaking at the
wheel" was carried out for the last time
at Vienna in the same year. One Zal-
helm, a very poorly-paid clerk of the
Vienna municipality had female rela-
tive in comparatively good circumstances,
who often assisted him with money. He
invited her to his lodgings and murder
ed her, hiding the body in the garret.
Neglect of some very trifing precaution
betrayed him. He was arrested, very
closely examined and confessed his guilt.
He was sentenced to be broken on the
wheel, and further to be tortured with red
hot pincers as he walked to the place of
execution. The Emperor Joseph II. was
opposed on principle to all capital punish
ment, following the doctrine of Marquis
Beccaria. But when the case was sub
mitted to him he exclaimed, striking his
forehead, "Heavens, to what are we like
ly to come; and declared himself quite
agreed on this occasion with the judges.
But great reaction set in shortly after the
execution, the terrible cruelty of which
shocked peoples sense OF humanity. An
anonymous pamphlet appeared, entitled,
Demonstration that Zalheim was the
victim of the ignorance of the judges, and
that his execution was an act OF brute
force. BY Man. Printed at Otaheitie."
A little later the Emperor issued an or
dinance abolishing this form OF punish
ment.
BEAUTY Is ONLY ."-Mere
beauty of the face does not 60 as far as
people generally imagine. 1t wins at
first sight, but if not supported, flank
ed, one may say, by qualities to fix the
impression, its effect will soon pass away.
When you think of friends you love the
image brought before your mind is not OF
the nose, the mouth, the ears, nor the col
or of their eyes, but you see the soul when
looks out of their faces and expresses itself
to you. 81 do not see how she could have
married so homely a man." said one
speaking of friend who had been years
wife, but whose husband she had never
before seen. "She thinks him handsome"
was the reply, and no doubt she did, TOR
she saw, not his physical features, but
those of his great, generous soul, and the
latter overshadoWed and blotted out the
former to her eyes. A happy husband
who has been welded score or two OF
years hardly knows what his wife is lke.
He may think he does, and describe her
to YOU as bewitching little creature long
after she has fallen into the "sere and yel-
low leaf" simply because the image OF his
early love is in his heart and he does not
see her as she is to-day.-1otedo BLADE.
MAY TURN PALE, YET HOLD HIS
PLUCK.-There are two kinds of bravery
that of the person who does not suffer
from fear, which is easy and of little merit,
and the bravery of person who over
comes his fear. Such person, in my
opinion, is more courageous than any 9TH
err; but though have great respect for
him, should put but little confidence IN
him, for his heroic effort may be over
come at any time, and virtue, beutiful as
it is, is less solid than the absence of emo
ton.
When the battle had begun and the bull
lets and shot, rattling about him, made
him tremble, Turenne remarked to him
self: "You are trembling, carcass OF mine;
YOU would tremble more if you knew
where was going to take you.-Poputar
