Sir Thomas Lip ton was a passenger on an East Indian steamer, bound tor Ceylona bout a dozen years ago. While in the Red sea the boat was dis* ibled, audit became necessary to throw overboard a part of ier cargo, Lipton was an iu crested spectator of the prepar Hums for lightening the ship de suddenly bolted the scene, tnd by a dicker with the :hief engineer secured a stencil x naint brush and a pot of black paint. Then, to the astonish¬ ment of the captain and passen gers, he cheerfully labelled each box and bale thrown overboard. ‘Use Lip ton 's Teas." The car go, of course, floated ashore, md for miles in Araby and oil; ir lands the natives saw that legend. Subsequently the pas¬ senger of the injured steamei .vere compelled to abandon il md tako to small boats.

Kind You Have Always Bought Boars the Signature of As To Advertising. Does advertising pay? is a question ofteu asked, and a cor¬ rect answer is of interest alike to merchant and publisher. 1'here are a number of merclr ants, especially if they have been in for a series of years who claim that they are too well known to need the aid of ci newspaper, The late A. T. Stewart, tin merchant prince of New York, was pretty generally known, and yet lie continued a very ex¬ tensive system of advertising iq. to the day of his death, paying an almost fabulous sum in tin aggregate during the year, and was often heard to declare that he owed his success mainly to the newspapers . He was the author of the saying that tin duller the times the more per¬ sistent the merchant should be in exploiting Ins wares, as In would thus gain a great advan t his less enterprising rivals. John Wanauiaker’s remarka¬ success has been an even strong evidence of the pro of advertising, He started on a limited scale in and chiefly, he through the instru¬ mentality of newspapers, has become the leading merchant the Union, His business reached such gigantic propor¬ tions that he established large branches in New York and Par is. A short time ago he paid to the Youth’s Companion $5, 000 for one page for one page for a single insertion. He pays annually more than $100,000 for advertising and lias an agent engaged at $5 000 a year, whose o.dv duty is t> write his adver tisemeots. j AFRICAN A will cure Rheumatism UX> ^ Scrofula to 5tay Cured. Did You Ever? Did you ever see a man voice had much weight if he ligiously embraced every oppor¬ tunity to shoot it off? Did you ever see a man liv¬ ing in a glass house who was not fond of throwing Or one with a beam in his- eye who was not a merciless critic of motes? Did you ever see the right eous forsaken or his seed beg¬ ging bread? Did you ever loose by kind uess , or make any thing by be¬ ing crabbed and sour? Did you ever regret having done the right thing, although you lost money by it or forfeited the good will of a friend? Did you ever see a popular man v ho seemed to know it all and never failed to clap your climax? Or is he considered a charming companion who acts as his own bugler and poses as a hero in tales of his own tel¬ ling? Did you ever see a man with a good case of religion who was habitually a prayer-meeting ab¬ sentee? Did you ever see any consis¬ tency in a man’s complaining at the church for asking for money when he does uot hesitate to pay fifty cents for a circus tick¬ or ten cents for a cigar? Did you ever thank heavey that you are not the husband a “new woman,” who pines to vote and < t pants” to hold And do you not contin¬ ually feel gratefull that you are wedded to a gentle Christian woman whose hopes and plans all center in her home and chil Iren? Did you ever reflect on the vanity of human pride? t \ Oh ! why should the spirit of mortal >e proud?” ‘‘We brought noth¬ ing into this world and it is eer r.ain carry nothing out. » ? we can We have nothing that we have not received.
