Truly a Novel Scheme.

A dispatch from Pittsburg says
that General Agent +. HI. Tristine of
the Wabash railway has received
from General Passenger Agent Crane
a circular giving notice of novel
privilege granted the holders of
Wabash mileage books. The
books will be offered as currency
at any first-class hotel or theater in
any city on the Wabash system. An
arrangement has been made with the
hotels to honor the coupons at their
face value, redeemable at any Wabash
ticket Office. The idea is to accommo
date travelling men who may find
themselves short of cash and cannot
wait for remittance. The coupons
are also good for theater tickets,
sleeping and dining car accommo-
dations, and in some places clothing
and gents furnishing stores will take
them. Local hotel men say that the
idea is good one and will do away
with the risk and nuisance of cashing
travelling mems checks and drafts. 1t
is said that other roads will take up
the idea and try it. One has got to
get up pretty early in the morning
to get ahead of the Wabash.

Where She Kept Her Money.

The Philadelphia Record tells Of an
old woman who was known to have
amassed considerable wealth, but
who refused to intrust it to any
bank. Where she kept her money
was a mystery, until she came to die
a few days ago. Then a thorough
search was made of the premise s
without disclosing the hiding places.
Finally, when the body was being
prepared for burial, a porous plaster
on the old woman's side was noticed,
which did not lie as close to the skin
as such plasters generally do. When
the plaster was removed number
of government bonds, representing
the old woman's entire fortune, were
found between it and the skin.

GET RICH.

That is a piece Of advice very
much like the doctors, when he
advised the poor man to take a
sea voyage; or the poor woman
to take good nourishing food
and a glass of port wine. We
don't need to be told to get rich
but we do need to be told how
to do it.
There are many ways to get
money. Speculation is one way.
You can buy stocks, bonds,
shares, ETC.. but all this re-
quires capital to start with, and
you have none, we will sup
pose. Then you must begin
saving money, but this only
shifts the shoe that pinches to
the other foot. How to save
money is nearly as great aprob-
lem as how to get rich. It is
very well to say, ''save mon.
ey." That is what we started
out to tell you and everybody,
how money saved on your nee
essary expenses may lay the
foundation for fortune for you;
and you can save money every
time you trade by buyingcheap.
That's no news, you will
probably say. Of course you
can save by buying cheap. You
could also fly if you had wings.
You can do anything if you
know how. You are quite
willing to save on your buying
if you know where to go.-
That's what we are getting at.
We would not waste your time
by offering all this advice with
out having practical end in
view. If you want to buy
goods at prices which will save
you much money don't fail to
visit the large drug and book
house Of Saur 3 Balsley. You
can not only save big money
on the necessary medicines
which your family need at this
especial season Of the year, but
also on wall and window pa
pers, paints, oils, varnishes and
brushes. While the season is
drawing near when it becomes
necessary to lay in a new stock
Of these goods, our stock on
hand is composed Of the very
latest patterns and best goods
in the market, but will be sold
at a great sacrifice in order to
make room for our spring stock.
Our book trade was never more
aourishing, now that books
are SO cheap, and those in need
Of good reading material for
the home should not fail to look
over Saur 3 Balsley's display
Of all manner Of books and pc
riodicals.
"A call On Saur & Balsley will
never come amiss. 1t is money
