Jack and Joe.
I have to get an overcoat
Says Jack to his friend Joe,
And, with but little cash to spare,
Where had I better go?
This buying clothes just bothers me,
The smartest man can’t tell „
From looking at a coat, just If
The goods will wear real well.
And lots of these here clothing men
Are that keen on a trade,
They'll He like sixty anyhow
About how clothes are made.
And some they stick the dollars on
And then you have to Jew
'Till tboy take off what they put on,
Whlsperin: “Just for you."
Now I don’t like that kind of way
And blame me if I know
With just the little cash I’ve got
Where it is best to go.
Says Joe to Jack, I know your fix.
For I’ve been that way, too;
But you’ll get over that right quick
If you trade where I do.
Try John R. Shaw, and you can tie
To every word he says,
And lay your money out, dead sure
That your investment pays.
His prices aro 'way down below
The prices ohters ask;
The folks that try to sell with him
I tell you have a task.
Low prices—quality the host—
Large stock—and goods all new—g
I’ts plain that John R. Shaw’s the man
To sell to me and you!

What buttons Are Made Of.
Do you know of what material the
buttons on your coat are made?
Well, perhaps if you did you would
never recognize it in the raw, for in four
cases out of five it is a material vulgarly
known as vegetable ivory. To the trade
it is the ivory nut. Down on the pier of
the Pacific Mail Steamship company
will be seen long rows of sacks made of
jute, which bear the appearunce cxtor-
nally of being filled with potatoes.
These are stacked at the head of the pier
in the open air. There is no danger of
them being carried away, for they are
as heavy as lead, and not extremely val
uable, as they are. Potatoes would not
remain in that exposed position un
touched for a single night. The ivory
nnt, however, is valuable only when it
comes from the hands of the manufac
turer in the button or the ornamental
state.—New York Telegram.
How a llliliop Was Put to death. I
Traces of this primitive superstition;
bewitching by images, are found among
civilized people, for Orimn reports that
in the eleventh century Jews were ac
cused in Europe of having killed Bishop
Ebergard by a sorcery of the kind. They
were said to have made a figure of wax
representing the bishop, hired a priest to
baptize it. and put it into the fire. As
teen ns the wax was melted, the bishop
was attacked by a mortal disease.—L.

Thu Warrant Was Wot Served.
“The wont scare I ever had.” remarked
Superintendent of Police Colbert, “was flandioa
one night when Quigley, John Lowe and
myself sneaked into a boarding bonse
without the inmates knowing of our
presence. We went np stairs into the
room of a boarder for whom we bad a
warrant to wait for his coming. Hew**
likely to be in some time between 13 and
3, and was said to be a very slippery
citizen. We kept very quiet, as we
didn’t want any one to know we were
there. A large coal oil lamp was burn
ing in the room, and instead of patting
it out, John Lowe, who had a skin coat,
undertook to shut off the light by hold
ing the coxi around it Pretty soon
Lowe fell sr.ieop. We woke him up and
he promual not to do so any more. But
the promise was hardly cold when we
heard him snoring.
“This was worse than ever and enough
to wake up every one in the house. We
punched him, and as he awoke, with a
start, he pitched over and the lamp
came to the floor with a crash that, in
the dead silence of the night, conld have
been heard half a mile away. There
waa nothing for it but to rush out of the
room and down stairs into the street
ks I went down stairs I felt awfully
queer. My hair was standing straight
up, and I was expecting at every step
that some one would tuke a crack at Us,
thinking we were burglars.
“Tlie next day the papers all had a
sensational account of an attempted
burglary, and one or two of them spoke
of the inefficiency of the police. As for
us we said nothing,’’—Indianapolis Jour
nal.
London Life In Elisabeth's Time.
In Elizabeth’s time the ordering of the
household was strict Servants and
'prentices were np at 6 in the summer
und at 7 in the winter. No one one on
any pretence, except that of illness, was
to absent himself from morning and
evening prayers; there was to be. no
striking, no profane language. Sunday
was clean shirt day. Dinner was at 11,
supper at fl. There was no public or
private office which was not provided
with a Bible. In the better classes there
was a general enthusiasm for learning of
all kinds. The ladies, imitating the ex
ample of the queen, practiced embroid
ery, wrote beuutifully, played curious
instruments, knew how to sing iu parts,
dressed with as much magnificence as
they could afford, danced the coranto
and the lavolta os well us the siniple hey,
and studied languages—Latin, Greek
and Italian.
The last was the favorite language.
Many collected books. Dr. John Dee
had as many os 4,000, of which 1,000
manuscripts. They were arranged
the shelves with the leaves turned
ward, not the backs. This was
the gilding, the gold clasps and
silken strings. The books were boupd
with great care and coat; everybody
knows the beauty of tha type used In
the printing.—Walter Beaant in Hart

In a Maine -town near the seacoast
waa one of many communities where the
men were, so to speak, a cross between
farmers and sailors, and where, aa a
natural consequence, the cultivation of
the toil waa somewhat neglected.
The minister of a neighboring town
exchanged with the minister of this
community, and as a drought waa npon
them the people sent him a request that
he would pray for rain. This he did,
aa follows:
“O Lord, thy servant is asked by this
people to pray for rain, and he does aa

How flic Natives Treat Gorilla.,
Natives in the countries inhabited by
great apex regard thorn always as human
beings of inferior types, and it ia for
thia reason that for a long time it waa
found imposxible to get hold of an entire
gorilla skin, because the savages con
sidered it religiously necessary to cut off
the bands and feet of the suimals when
they killed them, jnat. aa they do with
their enemies, possibly for the purpose of
rendering them harmless in case they
should by any chance come to life again.
