BROKEN BRIC-A-BRACS.

Mr.. Major, the famous cement man, of
New York, explains some very interesting
facts nbont Majors Cement.
The lnnltitudeS who use this standard ar
ticle know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cemeuts for which
similar claims are made, bu! great many
do not know why The simple reason Is
that Mr.. MAJOR uses the best materials
ever discovered and other manufacturers
do not use them, because they are too eX-
pensve and do not allow large profits. Mr.
Major tells us that one of the elements OF
his cement costs - Is pound, and an
other costs $2.G5 a gallon. while large
share of the so-callcd dement's and liquid
glue upon the market are not hing more
than siXteen-cent glue. dissolved in water
or citric acid, and IN some eases, altered
slightly in color and odor by he addition
of cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement rctnils N fifteen and
twenty-five cents ii bottle. and when II
dealer tries to sell Il substitute YOU can de-
pend upon it that his only object is to make
larger profit.
The profit on Majors cement is as much
as any dealer ought To make on any cement.
And this is doubly true in view of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the bcne-
fit of Mr. Majors advertising. which now
amounts to over 5000 II month"; throughout
the country. Es' nb'ished in 1876.

that we haven't the slightest idea n
the world why we do it-and then put
the whole subject away from us until
the whirligig Of time brings it round
again. The persons whose lives have
been sacrificed by the 4th of March
weather at presidential inaugui ations
would form mighty and melancholy
procession Of shades, and if they could
march in ghostly array at the heels of
the customary parade of the living
would illustrate most impressively the
FOLLY OF the present arrangement
We are glad to know that the big
Brothers are waking up to the criIai-
nality Of clinging TO the 4th of March
superstition. 1t is intensified crue ty
TO animals and ought to be absted.
Make il the 2nd Wednesday in MAY.
