Tarn Witty.
It Si not profitable) for a merchant to
be too witty; at any rate, be should not
try to be witty oa every occasion. Not
long ago, in a country town where
there are two groceries in the same
street, a very green tow-beaded, timid
looking young country-man came into
one of them one afternoon at a time
when half a dozen villagers were
grouped about tbe stove. Tbe store
keeper was waiting upon some one,
and paid no attention to tbe new
comer.
Presently the timid young man said,
in a faltering, half-frightened voice:
"Do you keep sweet p'tetters?"
"Nor said tbe storekeeper; "we
don't keep 'em. We sell 'em just as
fast as we can!''
Then he winked at the company
around the stove who snickered appre
ciatively. The green young man said,
"Oh!" aud went up to the stove aud
spread out the palms of his bands.
The store-keeper went on waiting on
his other customer, and used up about
lifteen minutes doing so.
Ihen he stepped toward the green
1 young man, who was still warming his
hands at the stove, and said, brusquely:
"Did you say you wanted to buy
some sweet potatoes?"
The young man turned slowly about
and answered, "1 didn't say I
wanted to buy none; I jest-ast-if
ye kep' 'em."
He warmed his hands a few minutes
lorger. Then he walked slowly out of
tut store, remarking as he went:
'I guess 1 11- go daown the street
n' buy me -some sweet p'tetters.'"
The laugh around the stove was iret
at the expense of tbe greenhorn this
tine.

J lie Official Souvenir
of the Great Exposition
rf The extraordinary and growing demand for these Coins, and the.de
th nart nf the nirertnrs that eaual opportunities mav be afforded for
I their purchase, have made it necessary to enlarge the channels of distribution.
I To relieve themselves of some responsibility, the Directors have invited
THE MERCHANTS
Throughout the Nation to unite with the Banks in placing Columbian Half
Dollars on sale. This is done that the masses of the people, and those
living at remote points, may be afforded the best possible opportunity to
obtain the Coins.
THE FORTUNATE POSSESSORS
of SOUVENIR COINS will be those who are earliest in seizing upon these
new advantages.
$10,000 Was Paid For The First Coin
They are all alike, the issue is limited, and time must enhanci their
value. The price is One Dollar each.
HOW TO GET THE COINS:
Go to your nearest merchant or banker, as they are likely to have
them. If you cannot procure them in this way, send direct to us, ordering
not less than Five Coins, and remitting One Dollar for each Coin ordered.
Send instructions how to ship the Coins and they will be sent free
of expense. Remit by registered letter, or send express or post-office money
order, or bank draft to

and the Grocer.
A grocer would not pay a farmer the price of a ten
pound turkey for one that weighed but seven pounds.
Why should a farmer pay a grocer the price of the
Royal Baking Powder for a baking powder with 27
per cent, less leavening strength?
The Royal Baking Powder is proven by actual tests
to be 27 per cent, stronger than any other brand on the
market. Better not buy the others, for they mostly
contain alum, lime and sulphuric acid ; but if they are
forced upon j'ou, see that you are charged a correspon
dingly lower price for them.

were beinj; driven hither and thither,
apparently stunned and senseless with
the buffeting they had received. Many
of tho birds fell senseless on the deck
and lay quite still while the insects,
though alive seemed to have lost the
power to sting.

pugnacity is one of the most conspicu
ous traits of humming birds. Even
kingbirds and the boldest hawks are
afraid of them, being compelled to re

ly equaled by the lightning-like rapid

any attempt at resistance on the part
of the more powerful adversary. 'J he
