ADVERTISING. '
We have been .carrying on the Louis
ville Journal between 36 and 37 years. —
During all that time, we have known no
man of business in the city to fail who
advertised liberally. And we have
known no one to succeed in any consid
erable if even in a respectable degree
w ho didn’t advertise liberally !
Do you tell us, oh candidate for the
custom of the commuu ity, that you can’t
a'ford to advertise because your business
is dull ? Ah ! why is it dull ? fasten !
and we will tell you. It is dull because
you don’t advertise, and you don’t adver
tise because it is dull. So the vacant cir
cle is complete. We tell you, if you are
are doing ill, to advertise that you may
do well, and, if you are doing well, ad
vertise that you may do better. Set high
your mark of business success, and ad
vertise up to it. You can do so, if you
w r ill. even in hard times.
A little nerve is needed in advertising
as well as in using any other effective
means of success. Your men who have
no more nerve than a wet rag advertise
little or not at all, and they succeed little
or not at all. You may suppose that
we are giving advice that we think would
benefit ourselves. Yes, w* do think that
it would benefit us, but benefit you im
m*WH©ly mors. Thick a iittU and you
will agree with us. And if you do agree
wdth us, be wise enough to act according
ly. —Louisville Journal.
[Although the Journal has been pub
’ished for upwards of thirty-six years, we
venture the assertion that during all that
time there never appeared an article in
its columns that contained more sensi
ble advice and plain truth, than the one
above; and if our readers don’t agree
with us, let them try' the experiment and
be convinced.^-Ciß.]
A Head Turned Round. —A crazy
man was found at a grindstone sharpen
ing a large butcher knife, and every now
and then examining the edge to see if it
was keen.
‘What are you doing here ?’
‘Don’t you see ? Sharpening this big
knife.’
‘Yes, but what are you going to do
with it when sharpened ?’
‘Cut old Ren Frown’s head off, to be
sure.’
‘What! you won’t kill him, will you ?’
‘Oh no ! I’ll only cut bis head off and
stick it right on again ’hind side before,
just to let the old fellow look back upon
his past life ! It would take him all the
rest of his li e to review.’
VV*hat a queer idea the lunatic had in
his head ! And what if it were so, that
every man when he reaches a certain
age had his face turned round, and was
obliged to spend the rest of his days in
looking over his past life ! Wouldn’t
there be strange sights ?
Frost. —The Tliomasvilie Enterprise
of the Oth says there was a sharp frost
in that vicinity on Saturday night last,
6th, but thinks there was but little dam
age done to either die crops or garden
vegetables.
RULES FOR HOME EDUCATION.
The following are worthy of being
printed in letters of gold, and being
placed in a conspicuous position in every
household :
1. From your childc&i’s earliest infan
cy inculcate the necessity of instant
obedience.
2. Unite firmness with gentleness. Let
your children always understand that you
men what you say.
3. Never promise them anything un
less you are sure you can give them what
von promise.
4. If you tell a child to do anything,
show him how to do it, and see that it is
done.
5. Always punish your children for
wdlfully disobeying you, but never pun
ish in anger.
6. Never let them see that they can J
vex you, or make you lose your self- j
command.
7. If they give way to petulance and
temper, wait till they are calm, and then
gently reason with them on the impro
priety of their conduct.
8. Remember that a little present pun
ishment, when the occasion arises, is
much more effectual than the threatening
of a greater punishment should the fault
be renewed.
9. Never give your children anything
because they cry for it.
10. On no account allow them to do
at one time what you have forbidden,
under the same circumstances, at an
other.
11. Teach them that the only sure and
easy way to appear good is to be good.
12. Accustom them to make their lit
tle recitals the perfect truth.
13. Never allow of tale bearing.
14. Teach them that self-denial, not
self indulgence, is the appointed and sure
method of obtaining happiness.
The Femandina Courier of the 10th
says “the Spring weather is all that could
be desired, and vegetation is progressing
finely. Green peas were brought into
this market last week. We regret to
leam that frost on the 20th ult. did consid
erable damage to fruit some distance in
the interior.”
The surname of a family living in Co
lon, Michigan, is Thurston. The Thurs
ton’s have twelve children, named as
follows : Ulysses Itchicus, Leodis lphi
genia, Crysthemus Andronica, Epami
nondas Epaphrodatus, Achilles Lycur
gus, Miltiades Aristides, Cassius Brutus,
Solon Kossuth, Agamemnon Hilland,
Dulcinea Dulceroda, Patroclus Antiia
cus, and Wendell Phillips. That family
had belter contract for the ague, and
shake off some of its christenings.
If you would swim upon the tide of
fortune, cast yourself boldly upon that
tide, and make it known that you are a
living, breathiug, animated, intelligent
being, bold, capable and expert in your
profession, and learn this iesson : That
the way to “get a little start,” is to fol
low the advice and experience of all the
successful men who have gone before
you, by advertising liberally.
Among the new devices of the day are
paper pantlets for ladies. A company has
been organised at Mechanic’s Fails, Me.,
to manufacture borders to ladies’ drawers
and children’s pantlets—an ornamental ap
purtenance to be buttoned to the garment,
which may be readily replaced when
soiled.
Mrs. Wbiggles expressed her disap
pointment the other day on taking up the
paper thus : “ Lor’ sakes ! there ain’t a
single living person dead that I know !
It seems to me there ain’t no news in this
’ere paper.”
Gen. B. F. Butler has already in type a
volume dissecting the reputation and
military services of Gen. U. S. Grant. It
is not to be published, however, at pres
ent, Gen. Butler preferring to wait until
Congress shall have adjourned, so that
the newspapers may get full sw'ing at his
brochure. This" is another “ powder
boat,”
