The Printer's Temptation. (Evidently Original.) A printer stood at his case one day, As he oft hud stood before; A man came in with “a word to say," And carelessly left open the door. With a frown of rage cn his care worn face, Tlie printer walked to the door, And gave it a slam that soYrlghtened the man That he hasn't been seen any more. Now, heed our ad vice, you printer man, When you want to get rid of a bore: Just close your door with a wooden damn, And he won’t trouble you any more. We now adore the gentleman who , promptly .. shuts . A the dour,-and , , hate the one, most cordially, who proves himself a bore;—they’re windy, cold and useless things, and often something more.

There is a young lady in Maeon so modest that she won’t go to bed while the man la the inouri is peeping in at tlie window. An Elluvillc gill, it is sa d, will not disrobe while there is “A Christian Observer” in the room. FREE TRADE The reduction of internal reve¬ nue and tlie taking off of revenue stamps 1 from Proprietary J /. Medi- dues, ; doubt . t ^ has . largely , benefit- ... no ted the consumers,as well as inn 6 the burden of home urers. Especially ,, ......... is this the case with Green’s August Flower aud Bosehee’s German Syrup, as the reduction of thirty-six cents per dozen, has been added to increase the size of the bottles, containing these remedies, thereby giving one- fifth more medicine i:i the 75 cent size. The August Flower for Dys¬ pepsia and Liver Complaint, and the German Syrup for Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps, the largest sales of any medicines in the world. The advantage of in¬ creased size of the bottles will be greatly appreciated l>y the sick and afflicted, in every town and village in civilized countries. Sam¬ ple bottles foi 10 cents remain the same size. Married. At the residence ot J. II. Spivey, near Abbeville, Alabama, by Rev. Dr. Martin, on Sunday afternoon, December 19, at 2 p. m., 1 rof. G. B.
