Those Who Save Portion of TheiI
Earnings, Are Sure to Prosper.
Charles Dickens, who was a
great student of human nature,
in his "David Copperfeld''
makes MIR. Micauber observe:
eff a man had 20 pounds a
year for his income. and spent
10 pounds, 10 shillings and 6
pence, he would be happy; but
if he spent 20 pounds and one
farthing, he would be misera-
ble." The truth of this quaint
ly expressed warning is every
day shown by the happy re-
suits which come to those, who
from their earnings however
small-are able and willing to
lay by a portion for a future
day. This habit has laid the
foundation for many fortune,
and proved of inestimable val
ue in time of need, aud those
who have practiced buying
their wall decorations, window
curtains, paints, oils, varnishes
and brushes of Saur & Balls
ley, are willing to testify that
they have been able to deco
rate and repaint their homes as
we'll as their neighbors and still
have enough to eventually
place them in easy circumstan-
ces. If you are not now a

pend an unnecessary and ex-
horbitant sum. The display Of
unique and novel patterns in
wall paper made by Saur & Balls
ley, is the admiration of all who
have looked at it. 1t is astock
to please everybody.
No intending buyer Of wall
paper can afford to overlook
this large stock, which con-
tains three patterns to every
one shown by all others com.
bined in this locality. This is
a fact that can readily be es-
tablished by a visit to their
store. a
Saur & Balsley's paints and
oils have an established repu-
tation. They are known as
the best the market affords and
sold as cheap, if not cheaper,
than inferior goods, Brighten
up your houses by applying
some of these paints and you
not only make your homes at
tractive, but a thing OF beauty
and comfort.
