After President Cleyeland got
through shooting ducks he came home
and fired shot into John Bull that
seems to have staggered the big bully.
Johnnie will not get his gun and come
out into the open field with Samuel but
will either work the sneak act, or come
down the limb entirely. When Uncle
Samuel makes plain statement of facts
John Bull knows that it means business
and that the American Eagle is very
fierce bird.

OLD-TIME TRADING.


Furs All Had Their Value and Passed
Readily as the Equivalent of Money.
In the backwoods region of the United
such scarcity of money that the peo-
pie adopted a standard in which furs
were circulating medium. Fox. wolf
bear, beaver and other skins all had
their value and were readily taken and
given in all dealings. A traveller pay
ing his bills at hotel received bea-
yer skin as the equivalent of dollar
and when he expostulated he was told
by the landlord that beaver skins were
legal tender at dollar each all through
that country. Concealing the skin un-
his coat he crossed the way to country
store where he found the proprietor be-
hind the counter ready for business.
Approaching him, the stranger re-
marked:
Il was just told curious thing by
the landlord of the hotel. He said
beaver skins were legal tender here
for one dollar"
$50 they are" was the reply. Every
body takes 'em at that figure.
"If that's SO" said the stranger, as
he brought forth the beaver skin and
laid 1t on the counter, will you kindly
oblige me with change for a dollar
bill?"
with pleasure" replied the store
keeper there 1t is," and he drew from
beneath the counter four muskra
skins, which we're legal tender fol
twenty-five cents each.
Determined to get rid of some of hi
inconvenient Change" the strange
threw one of the new-fangled quar-
ters" on the counter and asked for
five cent cigar. He got the article h
asked for and with it four squire
skins, which were 1t four squire
tender at fve cents each.

sisted in the presentation OF the opera
by Ganke's excellent orchestra. The
