His Second Time on Earth.

Carmack of the Commercial-Appeal insists that the demonstration of silver by the act of 1873 was clandestine, as he never heard of it until 1t had been done. This is not said in plain English. but it is a fair inference. Edward was at that time small boy. barefooted and in knickerbock but it was grave mis- take not to have disturbed the game of "knucks." in which he was daily en- gagged, long enough to obtain his opinion relative to the gigantic infamy that was about to be perpetrated. It might have saved a power of trouble.-Knoxville Journal

A Word to the Wise.

Sensible people don't need to be told of the advantages we possess over the aver age retailer of clothing. It is not only that we can save you something on every purchase, but the positive assurance that every garment is thoroughly trust worthy is just as important. In the face of active and watchful competition you have seen our trade grow from year to year with almost phenomenal rapid ity Other clothing dealers in this city have not enjoyed a similar increase of patronage-in fact, we may truthfully say they have been practically standing still. What is the cause of this? Other firms are equally as well located; other firms spend far more than we do in ad- vertising. There is but one conclusion, and no amount of advertising or argu- ment can offset it. As we said before, sensible people don't need to be told of the inducements that a house like ours holds out to the public. They have long ago learned that

SHIP AH0Y!
The Song Of the Whaling Grew.

It's strange how gossip travels in these
days of enterprise,
And how little story reaches most
prodigious size.
Now, way up there in Newfoundland
the strange tale has been told
How prices at the Long Brick Store
used up the whale SO bold.
The news came by a messenger, and
they called ii very odd;
When they saw the fish that brought it
they all thought it was a cod;
But he swore it was the solemn truth,
and wiggled both his fins
He said that lying wasn't down upon
his list of sins.
The lady whales said, "Oh, dear me, did
you ever see the likes"
The gentlemen said, 'lts quite time we
whales went on strike"
And all the little fishes that filled the
great salt sea
just swan around and told the news,
excited as could be-
The whitefish with dismay got blue;
buefish in fear turned white;
Red snappers in the face got black;
black bass turned red with fright.
They called "A caucus, then and there,
amid the rocky reefs
A meeting of the leading whales and all
the big whale chiefs.
It's plain that we must action take"
said speaker No. one;
Deep principles are here involved and
something must be done"
His voice gave out; he paused for breath
with many a snort and wheeZe-
Whales cannot sing, though they are
quite familiar with high Cs).
