Keep your eve on your newspaper and see
which of the merchants want your custom
and are sufficiently courteous TO invite you
to call. There Is good deal more in
advertising than you may think. It is not
only TO tell of his goods that man advertls
es, but it Is also TO invite the people who
read-the thinking, intelligent people-to
pay him visit and judge for themselves as
to the quantity, quality and price of what
he offers for sale.

The Oldest kissing story.

The oldest kissing story is propably
that Of the IIindoo herdSman who was
walking along the road with an iron
kettle on his back, live goose in one
hand and in the other cane and rope
by which he was leading a goat. Pres
emily woman joined him, and they
walked along together until they
reached dark ravinc, when she shrank
back. declaring she was afraid he might
kiss her by force in the dark. The man
explained that by reason of his burdens
he could not possibly do so.
YES" said the woman, but what Is
to hinder you from sticking the cane in
the ground and tying the goat to it, and
then laying the goose on the ground
aud covering it with the kettle? And
thon, how could | help myself if you
wickedly persisted in kissing me-"
MANY thanks said the man. Il
never should have thought Of MI that.
You are an ingenious woman. May
your ingenuity always succeed.
So they went on until they reached
the darkest part of the ravinc. Then
he stuck the cane in the ground and
tied the goat 10 it, and put the goose
under the kettle by the cane, and then
wickedly kissed the woman in spite OF
her great resistance.

HInckeninc the Eyebrow

Why is it so many foolish women are
forever diStOrting themselves by black
ening their eyebrows? There is almost
invariably a lovely harmony between
the color Of the eye and its fringes and
the complexion Of woman. which can
not be broken up by art without an in
suit to nature, says the New York sun.
The fair complexion is generally ac-
companied by blue eyes, light hair.
light eyebrows and cycla>hcS The del
icacy of one feature IS preserved in effect
by the softncSS of the other. But take
this fair creature and draw a black line
over her optics, stain their bcamy
fringeS with a sombre hue, and how hor
rbly YOU have mutilated her. On the
other hand, brunette with light eye
brows is Il caricaturc of a beautiful
woman. 1t j. noticeable however. that
nowadays one seldom sees a blonde with
fair eyebrows and lasheS. These womer
make great mistakes, for they lose the
chief beauty of their expression.

the Circuit Judge ordered the Mayor
to send up some cases which
he refused to send up, but we
don't know the name Of this writ;
whether the Mayor or his counsel knew
it we are not prepared to state.
Anyhow all the cases are in the Cir

writs to get them there, the Lord only
knows, and your scribe, not being inter

that he would not have the Office under
