Spend your nioucv at home and maybe you will have a chance to get it again. Sucii advico is much needed in ur city. Soon the spring catalogues of Mont gomery, Ward & Co., The Cash Utiyers Union' and numerous other eastern houses will Hood the country with their convincing arguments of how easy it is to save money by sending to them for articles which you ate in need of uud can get cheaper of them than you cau at home, of tins resident met-, chuut who helps to build up the city and country in which ho resides. The money spent with the hone merchant is generally invested, in the city ami country in which ho resides aud equal' ly so with the eastern merohauts. The money received by them from mail orders never helps to build tip the community from which it came, it sim ply leaves it that much less capital to do business with. Thousands of dol lars each year through this means lind their way to large astern department stores and net one cent ever returns to circulate in the community from which it came. The community is simply left with that much lens to do business with. This rule of patroaizlng homo institutions, will alike apply to both business men and tit trading public. If our business men would handle noue but fence made by the Ked Cloud Fac tory and those not handling such articles would recommend to tliIr customers to try it and thus encourage the nmnufaolflre, how long would it be until an extensive institution would develop out of what at present seems a rather small concern. Another thing we would recommeud to our business men. is to quit patronizing every cheap Johu advertising snap that conies' along and leave youradvuitisiug, what you have auyway, with your home printer. Who ever heard of a country editor hoarding up money. This is one quite noticeable failing of our city. Advertise your business at homo until everyone is acquainted witli your name, line of goods and prices, and also where you will reach tho people who are liable to buy your goods or deal with you, and not on some map or circular that is to lie distributed through tho cast, aud will reach a lot of people who will never got near enough to you to buy a live cent cigar or a nioklo's worth of candy.

It seems that a iiraymaii, wMifug to deliver half a ton of con . drove on the scales to weigh.

Ho drove back and onto the scales again, that being the handiest place to ask for informaion. but before ho had timo to say anything, tho denlor sup posing of coursu lie had the coal, aud knowiuL' tho amount wanted, slid out the bead, gave tho beam a Hip and locked it, savins, "Just 1.000 Mounds exnctly." The amusement of tho iiray maii, and tho consternation of tho dealer, when his "mistake" was known can better bo imagined than described.

Nothing so worries a physician. Con sumptives would never die if thdv could regain their usual weight. In mui mere wouiu oo no consumption II there was no wasting of the system.. The cause of this loss of flesh is a fail, ure to properly digest the food eaten. Nine-tenths of all our diseases date back to some derangement of the stomach. The Shaker Digestive .Cordial will stop this wasting of the body. It acts by causing the food wo eat to be di gested so ae to do good, for undigested food docs more harm than good. Tho Cordial contains food already digested and is a digester of foods as well. Evrry mother hates to make her children take Castor Oil. Laxoi. is sweet Castor Oil. Hill Nye once most truthfully ru marked that a man may use a wart on tho buck of;his neck for a collar button; ride on tho back coach of a train to have intercht on his money until the conductor comes around, stop his watch at midnight to save tho wear and tear; leavo "i" and "t" without a dot or cross to save ink; pasture his mother's grave to save corn; but u man of this kind is a gentleman aud scholar compared to a fellow who will take a newspaper, and when asked to pay for it puts it back into the postoflice aud has it marked "Refused."

On seeking to know the cause the good woman produced a half crown from the drawer and, throwing it down before the vicar, ex. claimed: "I marked that half crowo aud put it in tho plate last Suuday, and hero it is back again in my ahop.
