Book BEER is symbolized by buck
goat, full of strength and vigor. He is
supposed to exemplify the mature age and
strength of the beverage, and the term be-
comes meaningless when the brewing Is
not possessed of these qualities.
The Book Beer which The Globe Brewing
and Mailing Company of this city will
place on draught next Saturday, April 10,
will come up to all the requirements. 1t
is Book Beer brewed according to the meth
DDS prevailing in the best breweries in
Europe.
1t is made from Canadian Barley, speci-
ally matted, and the choicest pickings of
imported Bohemian Hops. The process of
preparing it for the market extends from
October 2, 1889, when the brewing began.
Low fermentation and storage In immense
casks have given 1t purity, age, whole
s0meness.
No haste, no adulturation, no "doctor-
ing" have been employed 1t is pure and
honest Book BEER-honestly made from
honest material. The company's reputa-
ton for the unexcelled purity of their
beers is staked on this production. Order
early to avoid delay. The Globe Brewing
and Mailing Company, Hanover and Con-
way streets.-Bdltins0re A merican.
Mr.. G. w. BANFF is sole agent for the

DRESS GooDs.-We said some time
ago that Dress Goods were the back
bone of our business. They are, in
fact, the bone and marrow. We are
within the bounds of facts when we
say that there is not in this city to-
day, we care not who claims TO the
contrary, store that carries such an
enormous stock of dress material as
we have on hand this spring. A
comparison of our prices with preva-
lent prices must lead to The conclu-
siOn-which many have arrived at
long ago, that we sell the best goods
for the money. Ladies from our neign-
boring towns come to us to do their
shopping, for they haye discovered
that in purchases of any magnitude
they save enough to pay their fair
twice over, besides having the great
est variety of most desirable things
to select from. Our line of dress
trimmings is varied and handsome.
Every day brings something new.
We invite you to come and look
through our spring styles.

A SLIGHT Accident.

The combination Of "A small boy with al
most anything has in it the possibilities OF
amusement, and especially is this true OF a
certain class of lads who are always lively.
One of this sort was recently seen riding
in Boston horse car, twisting about upon
the seat and distinguishing himself by the
number of shapes into which he contrived
TO put himself in the shortest possible
time. He had his fare in his hand, from
time to time putting it down upon the
seat, or into his mouth when he needed
both of his hands in his gymnastics.
He was just in the middle of an unusual
ly lively attempt to pick up a bit of paper
with his left hand twisted under his right
leg, when the conductor came along for
the fares. The small boy left off his strug-
gle to get at the bit OF paper, sat up in the
seat and began to gasp and choke in a
manner really alarming. The conductor
stood in evident doubt whether the boy
was having a fit, when the little fellow
managed TO stammer out:
You'll have to charge my fare to my
father, Mr.. Y. Y, please. I've swallowed
