One of the largest, wealthiest and

East remarked the other day upon be-
ing rallied on account of his liberal
and extensive advertising patronage in
newspapers: Il would sooner take my
sign down than discontinue my ad-
vertising. You must catch the public
eye in a well-displayed advertisement
if you expect to catch the public purse;
and the standing newspaper advertise
ment when changed frequently, is bet
ter, cheaper and a thousand times more
effective than reading notices or cir
culars. There is no business so high,
so strong or so exclusive that it can
not be benefited by advertising. !

my part, l much prefer diamond neck
laces.
Miss De S-Aren't they lovely! The
pure white diamonds especially.
Mr.. N.-Yes. It's a pity, though,
the colored diamonds are out Of
fashion; but l think they are coming
back. I saw a necklace to-day with
every tenth diamond colored, and the
effect was wonderfully brilliant 1t
was at Biffany's; quite cheap, too. By
the way, will you marry meP
Miss De S.-Oh! This so sudden!
Yes, my love, will.
Miss De S. (half an hour later)-
Clara Nubbins, next door, is engaged,
too; but think her lover showed
shocking taste in the selection of her
