PREPARED FOR BUSINESS.

A brisk looking young men, with his hat tilted well back on his head aud q small satchel in his hand, stepped in side a lawyers office and said:
 T hope 1 am not intruding, sir. You are man of business and so am I, and I can tell you In one minute what I am here for. My observation Is that five out of every six professional men in the large cities are addicted to the tobacco habit in some form or other. A habit, once formed, becomes second nature.
 '"There are thousands of men who spend their substance and drain taeir vitality by incessant smoking, who who would be glad to be released from the slavery whose chains they have fastened upon themselves and 10 such men I bring the means of deliver ance. I guarantee that this prepara- tion"-here he took a small package from his bag which is called Smoke bane', will cure the craving for tobacco in every form, absolutely, in one month or money refunded"
 ''Young man." said the lawyer, "you are wasting your time on me, I am not a slave to the tobacco habit. I have no craving whatever for tobacco though once in while smoke cigar, if 1t is a good one"
 Yes sir" interrupted the other, in turn, quickly replacing the package in his bag and producing another one. '.Let me sell you box of the .ele- brated 'Pufferino Perfectos' cigars. $2.50, 9 in box. Couldn't sell them any cheaper if you were to tackle 1000, and warranted to be the best 10-cent smoke in the market
 Before the lawyer fully recovered from his surprise he had bought the box and the brisk young man was mp on the next floor hunting another slave to the tobacco habit.-Chicago Journal

The Ell Dorado Times gets off the
following: The editor sat in his office
cold, whence all but him had fed. and
wished that every deadbeat was in his
grave, stone dead. His mind then
wandered far away to the time when
he should die, and his loyal editorial
soul go scoOting to the sky; when he'd
roam the fields of Paradise, and sail
DER jasper seas, and all things glori-
Gus combined his every sense to
please. He thought then how he'o
look across the gulf so dark and drear,
that yawned between his happy soul
and those that dwindled there; and
when for water they would cali, and
in agony they would caper, he'd shout
to them, Just moisten your tongue
with the due that's on your paper
