THE JOURNAL.

The journal is the principal book OF rec
ord in this directions, and although the
cash book is in a great measure another
form Of Journal IL does not reflect all the
adjustments as the Journal proper does.
The cash book only records cash re-
ceipts and payments.
The Journal records all items Of debit
and credit that are not actually cash, and
reflects aggregate totals of other subsidiary
books, aud is useful in adjusting all such
items.
There are many forms of Journals used,
bat we purpose only using In this in
stance the example of classified journal,
which is ordinarily used in small and
large mercantile concerns
To simplify the application we will
first take the following example:
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1897-06-07

The first occasion for using this i'm
portant book will arise in making en-
tries for personal and impersonal accounts.
The above entries will partly show the
use of the Journal.
1t should be headed each month as in
the example.
The names OF Harvey & Co., and A.
Murray are personal accounts, and the
merchandise account and rent account
are impersonal accounts
In very large concerns Journal Is de-
vised with many columns to meet re-
quirements.
We do not recommend journnlizing
cash items. These items are better posted
directly from the cash book
This saves the labor of entering and
posting a second time, and Is the most
modern system.
Further explanations Of the Journal will
be made in the next lesson.

The Silent Fighters.

"Whea you sec a good fighter" said an observer recently, whether it is dog or a man, you will notice that he does not talk. He attends strictly to business. What made me think of it just now was fight I saw on a Spanish brigantlne- Two of the sailors were the con- batants and their weapons were heavy oak pails weighing about thirty-five pounds. One man would knock down the other with a heavy blow upon the head. The fallen man was up again and giving a blow as good as that he had re- ceived before you could say Jack Robinson. Why both were not killed I don't know, and I don't know how long they could have kept up the fight. Not one word was said in all the time I watched them. Then the mate of the yes sel, who must have heard the blows. made his appearance on the scene. He said few words in Spanish, pointed in different directions and the men, still without speaking; separated and walked away."-Nes6 York Ttnses.

How the Postmaster Resigned.

In the early days of Pony, a mining camp in Montana, the Postofice coh- sisted of an old tea-box, into which all the letter were dumped, the citizens helping themselves, says an exchange: There were only forty citizens in Pony and there being no money in the office it WAS with considerable difficult ty that the storekeeper was persuaded to accept the postmastsrship.
 One day a stranger rode into camp and called on the Postmaster.
 "Don't you Know" he began sternly, "tfiat 1t is illegal to allow people to pick out their own letters like thati" "Waal, stranger" said the PostnnasterI "I don't kiiow that 1t is any of yout business how this office is run."
 "But I am a United States Post office Inspector"
 "In this case," said the Postmaster, Eve will finish up this Postoffice right now"
 He took the tea-box, placed it in the middle of the road, and with { good run kicked it clear across the gulch.
 "Now, then," he resumed, "you go right back to Washington and tell the department for me that the accounts are closed sn,l the post master at Pony has resigned"

For some time Elmer Cantor, Of
Union, N. Y, has noticed q peculiar
taste to the water in his well, and one
day recently he determined to clean it.
William Forbes was engaged to pump
it out, and after draining off as much
water as possible he descended into
the well. Suddenly Cantor heard
loud commotion in the water and
mufled cry for help. He thought the
man had been overcome by gas and
hurried down to find a squirming mass
on the water, with which Forbes was
battling. On projecting stones above
his head and in the water around
him were thousands of frogs. Some
were monstrous fellows, and it
seemed as though they had made q
preconcerted attack.
They were leaping upon his head
and shoulders from all directions, and
he was covered with a slime that gave
forth a sickening odor. 1t was with
some difficulty that hes was rescued
from his perilous position, and had he
remained in the water a short time
longer he would have sunk helpless
to the bottom 1t is supposed the
frogs reached the well from a pond
by means of an underground channel
