q great deal of comment among the

pert on the Coast, is often trusted to
handle large bankrupt stocks, and has
already handled over one hundred stores
in Oregon and Washington, and is

While he never interferes with other
merchants. yet someof them sometimes
are fool enough to try and interfere
with him, in which case they generally
set the worst of it. The sale goes on
Just the same. however, and the people

TIE CLEVER PARSON.

My children, come tell mo nowtf you have over
Been told of the parson who was SO clever;

That nsver cleverer parson could be-
The parsen loved children; he also loved walk.
ing,
Ane OF to the woods he was constantly stalk
ing,
To smell the sweet SIR. and to see the green
trees,
And to do just exactly whate'er he might
please.
Some children they went with him once to the
wood
CThey loved the good parson because he was
good)
They followed him gayly for many mile,
To list to his voice and to look on his smile,
AT length the children cried: "oh-dear-
MEL
We're tired-as tired as tired can bel
IT'S supper time, too, while afar thus we
roam
Oh. pray you, dear parson, do carry US homel"
The children were six, and the parson was
one:
Now, goodness graciousl What was to be donef
He sat himself down in the shade Of tree
And pondcred the matter most thoughtfully.
At length he exclaimed: my dear little
chicks
might carry one but can't carry six.
Yet couragel your parsons good care will pro-
vide
That each OF you home en- q fine horse shall
ride"
He drew out his jackknife, so broad and so
bright
And fell to : slashing with main and with
might,
Till ready there-one, two three, four, five and
six
Lay, stout and smooth-polished, some excellent
sticks.
Now mount your good horses, my children"
he cried;
Now mount your good horses and merrily
ride!
A canter, trot and gallop away,
And we shall get home ere the close OF the day."
The children forgot they were dreadfully tired;
They seized on the hobbies, with ardor in
splred.
Gee, Dobbini whoa, Dobbn! come up, Dob.
bin. do!
Obi parson, dear parson. won't you gallop
too?"
Away went the children in frolicsome glee,
Away went the parson, as pleased as could be;
And when they got back to the village they
cried:
"Oh, dear and oh, dear! what gerry short
ridel"

The Evolution of STYLES.

1t is really a curious study to observe
how fashions in raiment gradually
shape themselves from what has pre-
coded them. The change is seldom
sudden or violent. We do not jump,
for instance, from the tight-ftting coat
sleeve to the immense balloon struc-
ture. We do not go from the plain, full
skirts back to the bouffant effects of
drapery, with no intermediary stages.
But as the slang phrase has it, 1--WE get
there just the same" and we are we'll
on the way to this last-named consum-
nation already. The first stage was
the trimming put on in rows high up
on the skirts, now come peplums and
double skirts, and even paniers, all of
which are scarcely straws SO much as

The Dogwood Trees Signal.

Every lover of good salt water fishing
keeps his eye on the dogwood tree. So
does every blackfish from his secluded
abiding place among submarine reefs.
When the dogwood begins to put out lit
tie whitish green buds the blacllfish fish
erman, who is quite distinct from any
other species of fisherman, gets out his
tackle, fixes up his lines, pulls out Sis
old clothes, and makes arrangements
for boat and bait. simultaneously the
blacl1fsh pokes his nose out from be-
tween the rocks, takes long breath
of green water and begins to feel that
the spring has come and that he is de-
veloping an appetite. But he knows
that he must fast until the dogwood
signals.-N. y. sun.
