Talking of patent medicnes-you know the
old prejudice And the doctors some OF them
are between you and us. They would like you
to think that what's cured thousands wont
cure you. You'd believe in patent medicines
il they didn't profess to cure ererUh ing-ahd
so, between the experiments of doctors ana
sold only because there's money in the stun,
you lose faith in everything.
And, you can't always tell the prescription
that cures by what you read in the papers, so,
perhaps there's no better way to sell remedy
than to tell the truth about 1t, and take Inc
risk of its doing just what it processes TO do.

The boy who is permitted to earn his own
spending money and taught to keep his
little accounts and compare receipts and
expenditures, says an exchange, will earlier
learn the value of money and apply his
wits TO live within his income. Such
bov will not accumulate debts for his over
worked father to pay; neither is he so
likely to fall into fast company or fast liv-
ing. He is educated for business, and
will be able to hold his own in the battle
of life. The girl who has her allowance
and is taught omake accounts, will appre
cate the value of dollar and use discre-
ton in its expenditure.
We hear so much in this day about
practical education, but the true practical
education is that which practically fits
boys and girls for the active duties OF life,
ana any education which falls short of this
is neither praclic Il nor complete Fit a
child to earn living and you do better by
him than to give him wealth. Fit him tc
appreciate and care for property and he is
SAFE to be entrusted with legacy.

There is no day in the life of the
British tradesman, excepting, perhaps,
his wedding day, so filled with the
poetry of beatitic joy and exaltation as
that upon which, like messenger
from above, that coveted slip OF parch-
ment known as royal warrant de-
scends upon him. This warrant is no
ordi9ary honor, but is in trade more
than degree TO n doctor or commits

in the ordinary line of promotion, but

ing, very successful and still be out in

concerned All royal personages have
a right To issue their personal war
rants, from her majesty down, and such
are generally of II very simple cbarac-
ter, written on large Autographed
form under the elaborately worked
arms of the donor and signed by the
controller of his household. Each war
rant Is governed by its owners own
special conditions, that of the prince of
Wales being, beside the usual clause
limiting Its use exclusively to the
original recipient during his actual
business career, to the effect that
II is only given after three years
continued satisfactory service. All the
royal dukes are fairly well represented
by their private warrants, but theirs.
or even the queens are nothing TO the
dealer in masculine commodities like
that OF good, substantial old III. r. H."
The prince has never been lavish with
his favors and, except for special
reasons, rarely ever deserts house he
once commences TO deal with. His war
rant holders consider themselves bound
In sort of unofficial union, which,
toward the end OF the year--on the
occasion of the princes birthday
resolves itself into n magnificent ban
quet, to which his royal highness con-
tributes n liberal supply of venison and
more than sufii ;ient game of his own
shooting to provide a royal repast,
which is partahen of at one Of the
great public halls with which London
abounds. During the festal evening
royal address is telegraphed TO the prince
wherever he may happen TO be, and the
ready response soon after received Is
read to the company amid great demon
stration of satisfaction. The above
will give slight idea of the impor-
tance attached on this side of the water
