Eager shoppers.

A rather amusing illustration OF the
eagerness OF woman shoppers for bar
gains was witnessed In n Chicago
store recently. In the Sunday papers
an advertisement Of sale OF silks was
printed. which was intended TO an
nounce that they would be sold mt so
cents per yard, the original price
being Sl.00. Through some typo
graphical inadvertence the ADVERTISE
ment read that silks would be sold NJ
8 cents yard instead OF 80 cents.
The women OF Chicago spent n rest
less night for fear they would not
waken early in the morning TO take
advantage OF the generous offer One
lady cautioned her husband 90 call
her early, and murmured, ms She
drifted into drcamland: ~ II buy two
pieces OF that silk. twill be so nice
for Innings" Early the next morn
ing, before the clerks OF that depart
mcnt arrived. the women stood In
line waiting grimly for the opening OF
tho sale The different expressions
OF disgust, disappointment and NOR
tiication on their faces may be better
imagined than described as they
turned and fled out OF the store again
leaving the embarrassed salesman
alone with his confusion and his bar
gains.

William Constable. one OF the leading
merchants OF tho day, who after read

What do you young men keep COM

"To make business. marry your
daughters, and wind up your estates, :"
promptly responded the young New
Englander The retort so pleased the
merchant that he took the young man
10 his homo and introduced him 10 his
family. And the young man made
the saying good by marrying the old
mans daughter and winding up his
estate. The old Constable residence
stood at the corner OF Wall and VIII

by the Bank OF New York.

In the short distance traversed by the

Two KInds on aIrIs.

There are two kinds Of girls. One is
the kind that appears better abroad
the girls that are good for parties, rides,
visits, balls, etc., aud whose chief de-
light are in such things; the other is
that kind which appears better at home
the girls that are useful and cheerful
in the dinning-room, the sick room,
and all the precincts of home. They
differ widely in character. One is q
moth, consuming everything about her;
the other is q sunbeam, inspiring life
and gladness all along her pathway.
Now, il does not necessarily follow that
there should be two classes of girls. A
