 -The question is often asked, Why is 1t that we always have such rush at our store, and why is It that we sell So many goods? Our reply is that we do not want the earth. We do business on business principles. We keep a first-class store and have none but gentlemen to sell goods for us, and we sell our goods at a very short profit, and the trade at large is in possession of these facts; hence, our large trade.

Poetry as a Soother.

The testimOnyof John Bright to American
poetry and poets is emnently worth repeat
ing. He averred that he owed his quickness
of imagination to habit he had long pur
sued of reading little poetry before going
to bed. No matter what the hour or what
he had been doing through the day, he took
his morphine powder of poetry. 1t had in
his case a sedative and genial influence,
tending to sleep. The anodyne is possibly
not a new discovery; but no public man has
ever before announced his use of it. Mr..
Bright added that he always selected Ameri.
can poets-as more clear, ineligible and
unconventional Whittier, Longfellow and
Lowell he classed as always clear as a yum
ming brook, as bright as sunshine and We
freshing as breezes, while the English poe =
aim at subtleties. This criticism will III
doubtedly stand as the decision of history

TOO LATE"

There was nothing in the storyl"
Thus the people said;
But they load her name with glory,
Now that she is dead!
Were the verses worth the readings"
Hush! she wrote for bread
Every line seems full of pleading,
Now that she is dead
Weary fingers, temples throbbing,
HeaEt that weighed as lead,
Eyelids used to slumber robbing,
Ahl and now she's dead
Dye people, how your scorning
Filled her soul with dreadg
Let me Sleep" she moaned; and morning
Came, and found her dead
Kindly judge, then, those who, living,
In her footsteps tread.
Praises, too late in the giving.
Come but to the dead

There are looks that wound and hurt.

wicked, murderous dog; so the gates Of
Ghairlee were closed upon him. But though
he said nothing he waited until the laird was
away, and then he stole into the little passage
leading to the tower rooms and hid there

bride when none was within call but the
feeble old serving woman.

A Williams water jacket furnace was brought in on yesterdays train. and was visited by many O our local mining men. This is a new patent. designed by J. J. Williams, superin- tendent of Copper Basin, who will erect 1t at that point. It weighs in the sneighborhoodof 5000 pounds and costs about 5000; has capacity Of five tons of lead or copper ore every ten hours. Jack Boyd, an old ma chinist and one fully conyersant with this class of machinery, says it is the most complete arrangement of its cost and capacity he ever saw. It is de- signed to work copper and lead ores and It's completeness, cheapness and its comparative hghtness will enable owners of copper and lead properties Tn isolated districts, to procure them, do their own smelling and ship their matte and bullion out on the backs of pack animals. Owners of copper and lead properties, and there are mlny of them in this vicinity, are anxiously awaiting the first run of this late in vention, and if it proves to be the sue cess which it promises to be, orders will immediately be forwarded for more of the same make. The Courier hopes, from the bottom of its hoping apparatus, that it will prove a perfect success.-Courier.
