A Cnrlonn Superstition.

In Scotland there is a superstition
that the complexion Of the first caller
on New Years day indicates the good

So much confidence is placed in the in

to sell so far, nearly 100000 of Beatty's
Organs and Pianos since 1870. Nothing
seems to dishearten him; obstacles laid
in his way, that would have wrecked an
ordinary man forever, he turns to an
advertisement and comes out Of it bright
er than ever. His instruments, as is
well known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts ofthe world. We are.
informed that during the next ten years
he intends to sell 100000 more of his
make; thatmeans business of $50, ,00a,
600. if we average them at $4,000 each
