taken breath after the first great effort
which resulted in q board of women

good reason for this. II is that the in

The First Impression.

With School Catalogues, from which
the possible patron will receive his or
her first impression of the character of
the institution the publication represents,
it is of the most vital Importance that
the printed matter be of a high order Of
excellence, so that this first impression
will not prejudice the recipient against
the institution, but rather give the i'm
preston that everything connected with
it is of the best-even to it's annual cata-
logue.

Estimates Furnished.

We offer our services to the schools
of the South, and assure them that we
will take pleasure in submitting esti-
mates for their work and in furnishing
any information in our power.
We would, Of course, advise the use
of the very best Stock and in fact the
printing Of the very finest catalogue
within the means Of the institution, but
we will furnish estimates on any class
II work, and we feel certain that we will
give satisfaction in every case. With our
improved machinery we are enabled to
turn out neat catalogue at a price that
short time ago would have commanded
only the shabbiest kind of job-a job
that no self-respecting school would use.
1t will pay you to invest in a good cata-
logue, and we prefer to print catalogues
of the higher class, but even our lowest
priced work generally gives satisfaction.

Effects of Good Printing.

If it is the aim Of those who send out
Catalogues, Circulars, etc., to impress
upon those to whom they are sent the
fact that what they offer is of the best,
it is necessary that the printed matter
through which they speak should be of
the highest class, nothing shabby, shoddy
or souchy.

TALE OF A HORSE.

the Tale a Poor Fit
for the Animal.
Mr.. HOGG SUES Mr.. M'GRORY.
A Horse Trade VIII Be
Rehearsed in the
Courtroom.
Mr.. HOGG SUES Mr.. M'GRORY.

This is the tale of a horse. Not the
unlocked hirsute appendage that is the
browning glory of the equine species,
but a story of how George F. McGorry.
the livery man at 100 Elm street, got
the better of William j. Hogg, the car
pet man. Mr.. McGorry had a horse.
Mr.. Hogg coveted it. There was some
haggling, followed by purchase, and
the carpet king drove it home. That's
the peg from which these facts sus-
pend.
Mr.. Hogg has been ambitious for
some time to own a horse that would be
safe for the amateurs of his family. He
wished to be the possessoy of an an
imal that would not baIk or kick: an
animal that would be the personifica-
ton of meekness; a model that child
could not only caress, but ride.
There came a day when it was ru-
mored that George F. McGorry, above
all men in town, possessed such a
horse. Mr.. Hogg heard the tale; he
paused and listened. Listening, he be-
lieved, and believing, he purchased.
When Mr.. Hogg called upon Mr.. Me-
CORY to breach the subject of a horse
trade, the livery man did not appear to
pc over-anxious to sell. The horse, he
said, was valuable animal. 1t was a
saddle horse, and according to de-
scription, Pegasus and Bucephalus
were back numbers compared with it.
Mr. Hogg, so gees the story, looked
the animal over and then began the
maggie over the price. Mr.. McGrory
despite the fact that 1t Is said he bought
the horse for $50, held out for the limit
