One of the largest merchants of Daw-

man of splendid foresight, was predict
ing the other day what a fine trade
Dawson was going to have this year,
when he was asked what he based his
opinion on. II base it," said he, upon
the fact that there has been less buying
on credit this year than any other year
during my business experience. The
farmers and buyers generally have stint
ed themselves during the year so that
they would have money to spend during
the fall, and with the present crop out

Wales Dotted His Hat.

Captain James Oliver of the clipper
Louisiana, which arrived here yesterday,
tells this story: when the Louisiana
was lying at Dublin, the Prince of Wales
was the guest of the lord mayor of the
Irish capital The mayor suggested to
Wales that it would be interesting for
him to visit the Louisiana and see just
what an old time American clipper ship
looked like Captain Oliver was notified
that the prince would like to come
aboard. The captains son, hearing Of
this, declared that he would compel the
prince to tip his hat to him. This the
prince never does, by the way. When
the party came aboard, the hoy appeared
on deck waving the American flag. The
prince, noticing the national colorss
raised his hat, and the others in the
party followed suit, to the great delight
Of the captains son, who, in this way,
made good his boast. "-Philadelphia

The statement that 1T is the inten-

peers" may be taken at very low val
uation. In the first place, if he had
formed any such intention. he would
hardly be likely to make it public, be-
cause, in the second place, any such ans
nouncement would have disastrous
effect Upon the party war chest It ID
rather brutal perhaps to talk about the

speculated in his mind what might have
been. He is not quite through figuring
yet, and his constant query is, ifgrand-
mother had only put that $50 in the
bank when she first got it, what q clutch
of golden eagles we would have now!
He unused on this as he got ready on
cold mornings to go to work, and his
favorite topic of thought was suggested
as he jingled nickel and bunch Of
keys looking for his car fare. Then he
began to figure that money at 6 per cent
double in about / years, and he lost
sleep as he thought how many times II
years went into n years When the
cynical husband finally referred the
question of his losses to bank man, no
learned that in 30 years the $50 in gold
would have amounted to 81, 473. 60.
Without figuring any further on the
problem, the bank man said he would
easily consider that $40, 900 was lost by
saving the $780,.
It is not an unusual thing in some of
the old banks to have an account doubled
many times over and over again. One
day last week in the Worcester county
institution for savings an account was
reckoned at $214.O3 which originally
was but $40. Nothing has ever been
added to or taken from the bank account,
and it was left to accumulate. It took
about so years for the original sum to
gather all that moss. There was anoth-
er instance in the same bank where
thirty-one times the original sum was
