A liquor dealer who opened a
place for business in Columbia,
Mo-, recently started out with a
determination to justify and digni-
fly his business and lift it from the
level usually assigned to it, He
issued a notice with this head line:
know all men by these presents. d
He announced that he had "no de-
sire to sell to minors, drunkards,
or the destitute" that any "wife
with a drunkard for a husband
or any person with a friend "un-
fortunately dissapated" was re-
quested to notify him of the fact,
and the persons described would
DO excluded from his place OF
business. He believed 'there are
gentlemen of honor, and workmen
who can afford it, who want to
drink" and he wanted to do bust
ness, a strictly Legitimate business
with them.

The World of fashion has been
astir of late in consequence of the
revival of what is called the Direc-
toire styles, for which much popu-
larity is predicted this autumn.
The Directoire being that period
of French history which proceeded
the coronation of Napoleon 1, and
of his wife Josephine, leads natur-
ally TO the Empire and Josephine
styles, concerning which there is
also a great deal of interest mani
tested. Another favorite varia-
ton will be the Recamier costume
taking its appelation from the
famous lady of that name, who is
doubly celebrated for her beauty
and her friendship with Nine. de
Stael. The old-time balloon
sleeve, another reminiscence of that
epoch, will be much in vogue this
fall. Many people use the express
sions Directoire, Empire, Reca-
mier without fully realizing what
these terms signify, and are conse-
quently apt to err in their endeav-
or to adopt the latest novelties.
A careful perusal of a frst-class
Fasion Magazine like La Mode de
Paris, Paris Album of Fashion or
La Couturiere will furnish a salts
factory explanation of the differ
ences between these historical cos
tunes. These Journals not only
illustrate all notifications of these
sundry styles, but also give full
length descriptions of the materials
to be used with appropriate trim
mings, and reproduce as we'll the
latest novelties in millinery aud
hat ornaments. The most prac-
teal way of obtaining this intor-
nation is to subso She for these
Journals. La Mode do Paris and
Paris Album Of Fashion arc
$3.50 per year each. They are the
most artistic Fashion Magazines
published. La Mode Couturiere
is a fine home journal for $500
and La Mode is only $3.50 per
year. Another important fact to
remember is that the three former
publications contain each mouth
a lesson on some popular garment
with valuable practical sugges-
tons. You can generally get sim

a woman, a native Of Peru, though
over 80 years of age, is now max
ing active preparations for mar
riags with a third husband, a Young
Chilean Of large means. SO far
from being afflicted with the usual
decrepitude incident to her years
the sprightly widow is to all out
ward appearances a we'll preserved
woman of thirty-fve. OF Spanish
extraction, her second marriage
was to a Germen Of the name of
Boeckmaw. She still retains her
early fondness for dancing, has a
fine set of teeth, a voice unmarried
by age, and declares that the won
derful preservation of her youthful
attractions is due to a charm exer-
cised over her when a child by a
half-breed Indian doctor. In con-
sequence of this many OF the ma
tives believe her to be in league
with his Satanic Majesty.

The census Office has issued a
bulletin which contains the sum-

agriculture in the arid states and
territories and particularly as to
the results Of irrigation. Nearly
$50, 900 capital is invested in
productive irrigation, and the
returnes have been over SG5, OOO,-
900, or over 2l8 per cent. The
cost Of irrigating farms was about
S77,500,000, and their estimated
value June /, 1890, was nearly

irrigated lands are now worth four
times their Original cost.

Rocky Mountains. One day g
friend and myself came upon a
summer hotel near a little crystal
stream. There was an old mar
smoking a pipe on a bench at the

my friend said: "Now, there is
one Colorado fisherman who will

Il know it. L was up here last
summer and 1 got a whooping
trout on my line--he broke it snap
in two"

here" the man answered with a
peculiar drawl.
"Then l got a rope and fshed
with that, but the trout broke that
too"
Yes, the trout often break
ropes up here"
Well, then" 1 went on, " 1 was
decided to land him, and 1 got
him on a log chain and pulled him
out"
eyes, log chains is the only
thing that viii pull the trouts out
up here"
Well, you see, after 1 got this
big trout out we could not get him
up to the house"
Yes, it's powerful hard to pull
out trouts up here"
$50 l got a yoke of oxen, put
the trout on the sledge and after
a hard pull sue 'eeded in getting
him up to the house."
Yes" said the old man, with
out a smile, "a yoke of oxen with
a sledge is the only thing that can
carry our trouts up here"
1 was getting desperate. The
codger shouldn't agree with
me longer if 1 could prevent him.
