methods of doing business.
The St, Louis Journal of Commerce
is down on drummers and in for adver¬
tising. By way of practical illustration,
A relates the experiences of t we quote)
c a welLkown house in New
had York which
the choice of paying $5,00) for
in a
store a great thoroughfare or $500 for
one m a quiet cress street, and chose the
latter, devoting the $4,500 saved in rent
exclusively to advertising.’ This was
its fi st step to an enarmons fortune, and,
although it occurred many years ago, it
gives point to the Journal's comments
on the greater value of advertising com'
pared with drumming. It says :
A Chicago wholesale grocery house
which a few years ago carried sixteen
drraraers, at an expense of $40,000
per annum, and did an almost profit
less business, has abandoned the drum
mer system, spends onesfourth their cost
annually in newspaper advertising divi¬
ding the balance among customers. As
a natural result, their trada has increased
tenfold, and the net profits to the house
in 1877 were $130,000. This year they
will do still better. Their customers are
better pleased, because they buy on or
ders from prices current from two to twen
ty per chrit cheaper than they ever could
under the drummer system, Competitors
don’t like it much, but it is never the less
a success—an immense success. Will
not somebody here try the experiment ?
The day is not far off wheri they must all
corrie to it again, and it is beter to be the
pioneer than to be driven into it. The
same rule Will apply to all other lines of
the wholesale trade with equal force.
It is natural for merchants to seek va
rious ways of increasing their business
profitably ; but there is Orily one saft and
sure way—advertising.

HONOR THE OLD MAN.
Bow low the head, boy ; do reverence
to ho old man. Once like you, the
Vici.-»itudes of life have silvered the hair;
arid changed the round merry face to the
worn visage before you. Once that
heat’t beat with aspirations coequal to
any that you have felt, aspirations crushed
by disappointment; as yours are; perhaps;
destined to be. Once that form stalked
proudly thro’ the gay scenes of pleasure,
the beau ideal of grace. Now the hand
of Time, that withers the fiower of yes¬
terday, has warped that figure and des¬
troyed the noble cariage. Once at your
age, he possesse the thousand thoughts
that pass through your brain-^now
wishing to accomplish deeds worthy ot a
nook in fame, anon iriiagining life a
dream that the sooner he awoke from it,
the better. But he has lived the dream
very near thro.’ The time to awake is
very near at hand ; yet his eye ever kin¬
dles at old deeds of daring and the band
takes a firmer grasp of the staff. Bow
low the head, boy, as yon would in your
old age be leverenced.— Ek.

Woman’s devotiou to those that she
loves has been forcibly illustrated in
Memphis. The same spirit that g3V .
erned . , her centuries . . ago, when , she . was
‘last at the cross, and first at the sepul- ,
chre,’ actuates her to-day. Always will¬
ing to sacrifice self for loved ones, she
has braved all the horrors of pestilence,
and many a poor woman sits beside a
desolate hearthstone in Memphis to-day,
who wiped the death-dump from the
brow of husband and child, aud bravely
ministered to all their wants while the
pestilence raged around. The Appeal
notes it ns a fact that parents have de¬
serted their children, and children their
parents husbands their wives, but not
one wife her husband.

A FAMILY TO BE AVOIDED.
A reporter of the Post called on Mrs.
Austin the other day, and this is the way
She tells her story : Well, I'll tell you
ail about it. I’m riot ashamed of it. I’ve
given birth to forty-four children and
I m not an old woman yet, am I ? I

Ive had fortj since I married my pres¬
ent husband, and he’s right out there in
the back yard now.’ She stepped to¬
wards the rear porch and called ouV Wil
liam, come in here.’ Then she resumed
her seat near the reporter, and rattling
light on, Said; ‘My hnsband, don’t like
me to tell about the children I’ve had;
but I will do it. He’s ashamed of it,
and why shouldn’t I be? I’ve got a
cause, dont you think so 1 Why, I,ve

eight of them are living yet. She

Marriage in Nevadx.— The young
couple stood up before Judge Richard

exclaimed the blushing creature by Ins
side. ‘It’s a fact, Emma,’ protested
James, rather indignantly, and glaring at
the Judge. His Honor coughed and de¬
manded severely: ‘Do you, sir, as a eT
izen ol Nevada and a lawful voter
iieno, solemnly declare that you will for
sake all other evils and cleave to this

ded the groorri, growing pale, but placing
bis ami around the waist of the shrink¬
ing bride. “Then,’ cried the Judge,
bringing his fist down Ou the desk, ‘God

A Brio-c Poisoned.—M iss Werdlake
rejected one lover and married another.
This was in Juantita, Cal., of which
place she was regarded as the belle. The
wedding brought together all the fash¬
ionable folks ot the place, including Hen¬
ry Barron, the rejected suitor, who join¬
ed the test in seemingly hearthfelt con¬
gratulations of the bride; It was after¬
wards remembered; however, that he ac¬
ted like a man in a da2e—conduct at the
time attributed to too free drinking of
the beverages that formed a part of the
refreshments, just before the assem¬
blage was about to disperse; Barron ap¬
proached the bride, bearing two glasses
of wine. He handed her one and drank
the other himself, saying significantly :
‘Let us drink together once more for the
last time on earth.” She was rather sad
deried by his words, but supposed that
they referred to the necessary end of
their intercourse, aud drank the wine.
In half an hour both were dead. Barron
had put poison in the wine.

enough to curdle one’s blood. We can

wrong ; there is no blacker injury possi¬

A Bov Poisons His Father- —Mr. and
Mrs. George Hoffman, living near the
town of Vesper, N, Y., quarreled for
years. Ou Saturday the mother sent her
fotu teeri-yearsold boy to Vesper to pur
chase a quantify of arsenic. She met the
boy on the road home aud told him to go
home, and if his father had not eaten his
supper to put a quantity of the drug in
his tea. If tea was over the boy was
charged to put the poison in his father’s
beakfast tea, The mother then came to
Vesper and remained with a relative.
The boy found that his father had been
to tea. Next morning he steeped some
of the arsenic in his father’s tea. Shorts
ly after drinking it the old man was ta
ken sick, and sent for his wife. She
vv-ould not go to him. The boy who had
given the poison then came for his moth¬
er. He told her that his father was dead.
She started horde, and orl the way said
to her son, taking him by the neck : “if
you ever say a word about this I’ll kill
you the first chance I get. They can’t
hang you, for you’re too young,’ 7 The
boy did tell what had been done, howev¬
er, and he and his mother are in jail.
Lumber.— The consumption of lumber
in this country is enormous, altogether
beyond what is generally supposed. The
annual demand for ties and sleepers of
our 90,000 miles of railway is estimated
to be 40,000,000 square feet, and to in
close the road would require 180,000
miles of fence. We have 75,000 miles of
tplegraph wire to put up, for which 800 J*
000 trees are needed, while repairs would
need near 300,0 )0 more trees a year;
The common lucifer match uses up 300,'
000 cubic feet of the finest pine annually.
The bricks baked every year require 3,
000,000 cords of wood which would be
all that 50,000 adres of average timber—
land would contain. Shoe-pegs exhaust
annually 100.-000 cords of wood; lasts
and boot-trees some 500,00 cords of
beech, birch and maple, and about as
much more is required for the slock of
planes and ether tools. The* packing
boxes made in the United SlateS in 1874
cost $12,000,oOO, and the lumber manu
factured into wagons, agricultural imple*
ments, etc.; Was worth over $100,000,-*
000. An immense quantity of lumber
is employed for fences of houses and
farms, though these may decrease with
time, as hedges are likely, to a great ex¬
tent, to take their place. Our consump
tion of lumber increases steadily, and so
do our foreign shipments, our exports oi
pine, maple, walnut and oak being very
large. Immense as cur resources are,
the supply must, ere long, be exhaus

Men Without Occupation.— The
man who has nothing to do is the most
miserable of beings. No matter how
much wealth a man possesses, he can be
neither contented nor happy without oc¬
cupation. We wore born to l^bor, and
the world !S oiir vineyard. We can find
a field of usefulness almost anywhere.—
In occupations we forget our cares, our
worldly trials, and our sorrows. It keepg
us from constantly worrying and brood¬
ing over what is inevitable. If we have
enough for ourselves, we can labor for
the |*od(l of others ; and such a task is
one of the most delightful duties a worthy
and good man can possibly engage in.
It you wish to make yourself agreeable
to any one, talk as much as you please
about his or her affairs, and as little as
possible about your own. People are
such downright egotists themselves that
they cannot tolerate egotism in others.
It is Ve’.-if hard to live in this world
and keep the tenderness, the purity and
the trust of a little child. Happy are
those who do ; but, if the petrifying wa¬
ters} of deceit, and hate, and malice, and
ingratitude harden some hearts, who
shall wonder ?
The diseased man, who is restored to
health, cares little whether his physician
Wears wig or cowl, or received his dipld*
rtia from Paris or London ; and so to the
regenerate man, it is of little moment
where or by what p'-ocess he became a
temple of the holy spirit.
Many of us have to lament, not so
much a Arant of opportunities in life, as
dur unreadiness for them when they
come. “It might have been” is the Ian.,
guage of our hearts oftener than words of
complaint and murmuring.
The Treasurer of a railroad asked the
conductor why he passed a certain pas¬
senger without asking for his fare, “Oh
lie’s a conductor on railroad.” “He

live on his salary,” was the quick reply.
