ORGANIC WEAKNESS,
Impolency, Lots of Power, Immediately Cured
and full Vigor Restored.
Thl Distressing Affection which renders Life
miserable and mnrrlage Impossible is the penalty
paid by the victims of improper Indulgence.
Young persons are too apt to commit excesses
from not being aware of the dreadful conseqeuce
that may ensue. Now, who that understands
the subject will pretend to deny that tho power
of procreation Is lost sooner by those falling into
Improper habits than by the prndrnt T Besides
being deprived the pleasures of healthy offspring,
the most serious and destructive symptoms to both
body aud mind arise. Tbe system becomes de

DR. JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduated from one of the most eminent
College In the United State, and the greator
part of whose ife ha been spent in the hospitals
of London, Pris, Philadelphia and elsewhere,
bus effected some of the most astonishing cures
that were ever known ; many troubled with ring
ing in the head and ear wben asleep, great
nervousness, being alarmed at sudden aoands,
bashfulness, with frequent blushing, attended
sometimes with derangement of mind, were cured
immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses all those who have lujurrd
themselves by Improper Indulgence and solitary
habit, which rulu both body and mind, unfitting
them for cither business, study, society or mar
riage. Tbf.sk are some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains in the
p.i.d u4, DjMawirf oigti,, 1mm of Mus
cular Power, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsy,
Nervous Irritability, Derangement of Diccstive
Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Con
sumption, Ac.
Mentaixt The fearful effect on the mind
are much to be dreaded Loss of Memory, Con
fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil
Forebodings, Aversion to Society,' Self-Distrust,
Love of Solitude, Timidity, Ac, are some of the
evils produced.
Thousands of persons of all ages can now
Judge w hat Is the muse of their declining health,
losing their vigor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous
and emaciated, having a singular appearance
about the eye, cough and symptom of consump
tion TOUNG MEN
Who have injured themselves by a certain prac
tice Indulged in when alone, ft habit frequently
learned from evil companions, or at school, tho
etlucts of which are nightly felt, eveu when
asleep, aud if not cured, renders marriage impos
sible, and destroys both miud aud body, should
apply Immediately.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, the darling of his parents, should be
suatched from all prospects and enjoyment of
life, by tho couscquence of deviating from the
path of nature and Indulging in a certain secret
habit. Such person must, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
reflect that a sound miud and body ar the most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happi
ness. Iudced without these, the Journey through
life becomes a weary pilgrimage j th prospect
hourly darkens to the view ; the mind tecomes
shadowed with despair aud tilled with the melan
choly re!ieaiou, that the happiness of auotUcr
becomes bliehted with ourown.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When tbe misguided and imprudent vol.try of
pleasure finds that he ha imbibed tbe seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens Unit an
ill-timed sense of shame, or dread of discovery,
deter him from applying to those who, from
educutlon and respectability, ran alone befriend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptom ol
thi horrid diseuse make their appearance, such
as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, noctural
pains iu the head and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shiu bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at latt the
palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
In, aud the victim of this awful disease become
a horrid object of commiseration, till death put
a period to hi dreadful suffering, by sending
him to " thai Undiscovered Country from whence
uo traveller returns."
It Is ft melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, throngb fulling
into the hands of Ignorant or nuskiillul PRE
TENDERS, who, by the nse of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, Ac, destroy tbe constitution, and
Incapable of curing, keep th unhappv autlerer
month after month tnkiug their noxious or in
jurious compounds, and Instead of being restored
to a reuewal of Life Vigor and Happiness, In des-
Ettlr leave him with ruined Health to sigh over
is galling disappointment.
T such, therefore, Dr. Jodmstom pledges him
self to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, and
from bis exleuslve practice and observations lu
the great Hospitals of Euro), and th first ic
this country, viz : England, France, Philadelphia
and elsewhere, Is enabled to otler th most cer
tain, speedy and effectual remedy In th world
for all diseases of imprudence.

MARRIED FOR MONEY.
"Oh, deftr1, t wih he woUlil come V"
Kate Titlbot looked at her, watch, ntid
then rau out in the hall to compare its en
amelled hands with the ponderous dial of
the old clock on the lauding, and theu she
looked down tho chn-shnded perspective of
the quiet road, and took jut a second
glaucu ut the watch, with an iin patient sort
of sigh.
She was a tall, handsome cirl, with
bright brown hair coiled around tier head
in a cornet faehioD, that harmonized with
the royal way she hnd of throwing back
bur slender whilo throat, and the stately
grace of her every motion. Her eyes largo
and soil, of a peculiar hazel tint, were full
of dreamy languor, and the pink aud white
bloom of her cheeks betokened very plainly
that she had never turned day into flight
and night iuto day, after tlie approved
fashion of metropolitan hells. No, Kate
Talbot was a rustic beauty, fresh and un
contaminated by the sinister intluence of
city life.
"Here he comes ; and he is not aloue 1"
Aud within Just thirty secouds Miss Tal
bot was on the steps of the Ionic portico,
inclining her head to Mr. Hobs me re Wylie,
and holding out an eager fluttering Land
toward her father. IIu shook his head.
"No letter, papa V"
, 'None, Italy.'
ltossmeres quick eye scanned Kate's
counteuaucu as she mood there, a single
rose among her dark tresses, and one hand
slightly holding together the folds of her
blue cushtnerc. How plainly he saw tho
expression of keen disappointment that
11 uttered across her perfect Greek features.
'Kate,' said Mr. Talbot, quietly dis
mounting from hi horse, 'somehow it is
tlillicult lor me to believe iu this gay cava
lier of yours.'
'Papa !'
'Out of sight, out of mind,' is a very old
proverb, you know, my dear ; aud it is just
probable, among the attractions of a tush
iouable watering place, that he has forgot
teu the little wild flower of tho Weldinglon
lulls.'
'Never, papa ! Yuu and ltossemcre ul
ways were unjustly prejudiced against
him.'
Kate spoke with very genuine enthusi
asm. She believed in Jiiuco liayuor just
us implicitly as she believed in tlie liquid
gold of the sunshine at her leet. and it
seemed impossible that uny one else should
fur a single second doubt his truth aud sin
cerity. Kossmere Wyl e looked at her with grave
iuteutness. Suppose suppose for au in
stant that Bruce w as faithless 1 He stern
ly checked within himself the upspriugiug
throb of his heart. Was it for him to build
up a palace of happiuebs on thu wreck of
Kale Talbot's iirsl love '
'He never cared for her as I do !' was the
rebellious outcry of his whole nature.
And Kossmere Wylie resolved to go to
Saratoga and survey the field lor himself.
Mr. iirucu Gaynor was walking up aud
down the broad piazza, in the afternoon
euueliiue. It was certainly very consider
ate of him to give the young Indies such a
tine opportunity of admiring his dark eyes
aud rich Spauiali complexion, uud exqui
site figure "the glass of fashion ami the
mould of lorm." Iirucu felt he was capti
vating, and completely forgot that he had
inteuiied to devote that particular after
noon to writing to Miss Talbot, the pretty
Weldinglon girl, who made such an im
pression upou him.
'Have you heard w ho arrived this morn
ing, liayuor J"
Colouel Med ford's hand, laid lightly on
Mr. Gaynor's shoulder, arrested his saun
tering movements.
'IVo ; any one worth cultivating V
'Miss Montressor.'
'Mt6s Montressor, the heiress ? Why, I
thought she was to be among tho White
Mountains.' -
'She has changed her mind apparently ;
at all events, here sho is, with nineteen
trunks aud noec.1 to the hat boxes. There's
a chance for you, young man, if you want
a rich wife.'
liruce Uayuor's handsome eyes sparkled.
'Introduce me.'
'Can't, unfortunately, haven't tho honor
of a personal acquaintance myself; but 1
can tell you who can.'
'Whof
'Wylif, ho came yesterday Ilossmere
Wylie, you know t he's a cousin or some
thing of the golden damsel. Aud there
ho is now 1'
Uruce Gaynor winced a little.
'What ! that fat, dawdy little concern by
tho door V Why, I thought she was a
beauty V"
'So sho is, considered from a financial
point of view. My dear fellow, don't be
hypocritical.'
Why. 6he's forty if she's a day ; and I'll
wager my diatuoud shirt studs that her
teeth are false.'
'Very possibly; but only think of her
bank stock and railroad shares ; 1 tell you,
I'd go iu for tho prize quick enough, if I
wasu't already mortgaged to Mrs. Med
ford, bless her dear little heart. Why
don't you think the matter over f
. Bruce Gaynor did think the matter over;
aud made up his mind in very short order.
'Good eveuiug, Mr. Wylie,' said he, iu
honeyed accents, half au hour or so later,
as he encountered Kossmere. !1 believe I
had the pleasure of meeting you at Weld
inglon.' Mr. Wylie inclined his head frigidly.
"I understand Miss Montressor is your
cousin, and 1 had resolved to ask at your
hands the privilege of an introduction.
"I shall be happy to oblige you Mr. Gay
nor," said Kossmere, with the slightest per
ceptible shrug of his shoulders ; "uud I pre
sume my cousin Emily will be gratified
with the acquaintance."
So Mr. Gaynor was formally presented
iu the list as a candidate for tho smiles of
Emily Montressor. -
8 1 10 was not handsome. Her hair was
thin aud rusty brown, her eyes didn't both
look in the sumo direction, and she un
doubtedly wore false teeth. But then
Bruce remembered her money, and looked
at her throusn a perspective golden haze
that made her very lovely.
'I do not really kuow what to do about
Kuty Talbot,' though Mr. Gaynor to him
self, uneasily twisting up the pinkeuvelopo
that had euwraped her last glowing im
pulsive, loviug little epistle. 'I was a great
fool to allow myself to get so entangled, but
it isn't too late to back out gracefully. I
guess 1 wont' answer her letter ; womeu
are generally pretty quick to take a hiut of
that sort. Katy is very pretty, aud very
much in earnest ; but theu Katy hasn't got
the cash, and it really is every uiau'a duty
to lookout for number one.
Thus cogitating, Bruce Gaynor lighted
his cigar with the pink envelope, wheu poor

ed and grew heart-sick at her lovers strange
silence.
And Rossmcre Wylie watched tbe curi
ous development of the little lifo drama that
was being enacted under his eyes with cou
tcmptous indignation.
A heartless wretch I' bethought. 'Kate
will be rid of him. And yet, poor girl, she
did believe in him. ' Well this is a strange
world wo live in. If a man steals n, five
dollar bill, he is sent to prison ; if he steals
a woman's heart, to fling It away "when ho
is tired of tho plaything, he's a hero nnd
a preux chevalier I I5on voyage, Mr.
Brnco Gaynor. I shall certainly not inter
fere in any of your nice little arrange
ment.' Yet ltossmore Wylie felt ft certain thrill
of delight as he thought of Kate Talbot
free, and disenchanted once more from the
glamour that had hung around her life.
August was gone nnd over; the golden
orb of the September moon was looking
calmly into the eurtnincd recess of the huge
bay window, where Mr. Bruce Gaynor had
gono gracefully down on his knees to Miss
Kmily Montressor, after the most approved
fashion.
'My Kmily ! my heart's own peerless
trensure !'
'Do you really love mo V" lisped tho
middle aged charmer, with an attempt to
be arch.
'Ah, Emily, 1 have felt of late how ut
terly impossiblo it will be for me to Im hap
py away from your smiles. You will mar
ry me, dearest V You will give me the
right to call you my own V
-'But Bruce.' faltered tha fair one, 'I
am so much older than you 1'
'A year or so, pcrhnps, darling ; but
what does that signify to hearts that uro
congenial V
'And then my niece will think it so ridi
culous, she has always opposed the idea of
my marrying.'
'My Emily should not sacrifice the hap
piness of her lifetime in the interested mo
tives of others. You will be mine, Emi
ly.' 'Ah, Bruce, you are so winning ! I don't
know what ans"wer to give you.'
'Sty yes, darling.'
'But I am really afraid to let my niece
know ; I'm sure sho will oppose it.'
'My love, wo will spare her the opportu
nity ; we will go quietly to tho church to
morrow nnd be married.'
'Oh, Biuco 1'
'Emily, my darling,' I am awaro that
this is uot a common proceeding ; but then
you know our love is not common love'
I I know it Bruce,' faltered Miss Mon
tressor, turning a huge emerald ring round
and rouud on her dumpy little linger, 'and
if yon insist upon it.'
Mr. Gaynor's handsome eyes Hashed in
triumph ; he was sure of bis prize at last.
Poor, forgotten Kate.
The sudden wedding of the middle-aired
M:ss Montressor with the chief exquisite of
the season made a nine day's wonder at
Saratoga. Kate Talbot heard of it in due
time; and cried a day and a night before
she began to reulizu that sho had made n
fortunate escape. And Hossmere Wylie
came back from .Saratogn just in time to
catch her heart in tho rebound.
While Mr. Wylie and Miss Kate Talbot
were gathering urapcs and whispering ex
ceedingly interesting little nothings under
the giten tremulous shadows of the arbors
at Weldinglon, after tho most approved
style of lovu making, Mr. and Mrs. Gay
nor were enjoying the grandeur of Ningara.
'Sublime I soul entrancing !' ejaculated
Bruce, gentry pressing the hand that lay
ou his arm, and looking enthnsastically up
ward toward the blinding spray of the great
cataract.
'Very nice,' said Emily, absently. 'But
I'm so disappointed about this letter from
Emmy.'
"Who's Emmy ?"
"My niece, dear ; I thought of ourbe
she'd send me something very nice for a
wedding present ; but but
"Dearest do not weep I Ixt me brush
The diamond drops away from that cheek,"
murmured Bruce flourishing his pocket
haudkerchief romantically around Emily's
face.
"I I can't hold it," sobbed Mrs. Gay
nor. "Its toou.can of Emmy. She always
did opKRo my marrying ; but I never
thought sho would be so spiteful."
"We care not for her good or bad op
inion, dear. Your husband is now all the
world to you. my Emily."
"Thai's just what she says, the hate
ful thing 1"
"Calm yourself, my love. What do we
want of her paltry wedding present 't
"It isn't than, Bruce, but--"
"She's cut oil' my allowance, the hard
hearted minx ; and sho so rich."
"We i a io there two heiresses in the
Montressor family."
"Two heiresses ? No. What do you
mean, Brueo."
"Do 1" Bruce cleared his throat huski
ly, and went on "understand that that
is your niece "
"Why, you must often have heard of my
niece, Emily Montressor she was named
after me the rich heiress t And she's u
great beauty, too ; at least some people call
her so ; bu. for my part 1 never could like
those yellow haired blondes."
Bruce Gaynor stood stariug at the ever
lasting tumult of the American Pall, with
eyes that seemed turned to stouc, while his
fair gride prattled on.
"And now she's cut oil' my allowance
and lett me without a ccntiu the world, I lie
disagreeable thing 1 Well, it's lucky 1'vu
got a husband to take care of me uow, ain't
it, Bruce, dear V"
Bruce Gaynor did not answer ; he liter-,
ally could not. His tongue seemed to
cleave to tho roof of his mouth ; every drop
of blood iu his body s'.ood still. Hud ho
sacrificed his youth and beauty and bril
liant prospects for Ibis V The geutleUmily
had never looked as she did at thi mo
mcut, elingiug confidingly to his arm, with
all a wife's sweet confidence.
Aud then he rememliercd sweet Kate
Talbot, aud thought vindictively of Koss
mere Wylie.
"He knew he must have known that
there were two Emily Moutressors,"
thought Gaynor, cleuching his teeth. "He
saw me walk iuto the trap, aud uever neu
ed his lips to warn me. 0, what a fool 1
what a double distilled blockhead I have
boeu I"
So he had, but unfortunately it was too
late for this self-appreciation to bo of suy
use. He was safely married to Mis Emily
Montressor, but not to tho Emily. And
Mr. Gaynor felt, with a bitter pang of hu
miliation, that his snug little piece of di
plomacy had been au utter failure.
An old Dutch tavorukoopcr, who had
his third wife, thus expresses bis view
of matrimony : "Veil, you see da first
tim I marries for lore da I wa good ;
den I marries for beauty dat was goot,
too, about as goot as tha first ; but dis
time I ruarrie for money aud dis is bet
ter as both."

Spueadixu Mam un is Winter. A
Steuben county (N. Y.) farmer Eives the
followiug record of an interesting expe
rience : .
Some twenty years ago, inteuding to
plant to com a piece of ground which had
been occupied us a meadow, 1 commenced
getting out and spreading mauure shortly
before the time tor plowing and planting.
After having spread mauure over a small
portioll of thu field, tor some reason 1
changed my purpose uud postponed the
work for one year. The next spring 1 got
out manure on tho rest uf the field, and
plau led the whole to corn. The result to
my surprise, was that the growth aud pro
duct of corn ou that portion of the field
that had been manured the year previous
was much l.ugei thuu ou Ihu part which
had been manured shortly before plowing.
Tho result of I li its accidental experimeut
led me a few years afterward to draw ma
uure during winter on a piece of ground
which 1 proposed to plant the ensuing
spring. The circumstauces and my me
thod were these :
1 stabled uud foddered a number ot cows
in a spacious underground stable or shed.
They were tustciicd with chains in the or
dinary imt'iucr, in a row, on one side of tho
shed. A sled was placed at a convenient
distance iu too icur, and every day the
droppings aud litter were shoveled from the
door ou which the cows stood to tho bled,
to which as olfeii us it was loaded a team
was hitched, and the load drawn to the
field and spread. This was continued
through the winter, sometimes ou bare
ground aud sometimes iu deep snow.
At the proper season the field was
plowed arid planted. Although 1 have
"farmed it" but in a small way, I have uot
iu J j years omitted a field of a few acres of
corn, and have not been in the habit of
raising poor crops, the crop in question
fell considerably short of "ouo hundred
bushels to tho acre," but was the best 1 ev
er raised. The succeeding crops of barley
aud wheat were above the average.
With like facilities, I should conlinuo to
Iiractice in the same way. Besides that,
. regard this as au economical way of get
ting out mauure. I am satisfied that the
melting snow and the rain help to make the
manure available to the growing crop. The
common practice of dumping manure iu
heaps aud theu spreading before tho plow,
1 regard at slovenly and wasteful.
Curb roil Frosted Pekt. Warm
some pine tar and apply with a feather to
the fleeted part ; heat if in by the tire
before going to bed. In very bad cures it
may need the second or third application.
It is a cura, and the tar can easily bo re

A Teuiperanre Ntory;
Which Bicats Goloh's TocoiiicaT
Yaknu. We do nut know why it is that
temperance lecturers stretch the truth out
of all manner of shape so often. As good
a cause as temperance out not to require
story telling that lies outside of the bouuds
of truth. But the fact is, that more rof
malices nreuttoied from the temperance
platform than from any other place. From
tho San Francisco Chronicle we cut an ex
tract from a temperance address delivered
in that city, by Dr. Gibbon, that beau any
of Gough's stories and that Is saying it
great deal. Here it is as follows :
"As a still further illustration of a de
prayed appetite, thu Doctor told a story of
a ship carpenter in Philadelphia who acci
dentally cut his toe off Willi an adze. It
was too late to put it on and make it grow
fust again wheu he got home, so he put
the severed extremity In a jar of alcohol
and placed it oti the mantlcpicce as a fami
ly memento. The doctor ndvised the pa
tient to take a little whisky every day to
keep up his Btrcngth aud Bpirita while con
fined to his bed. The advice wa scrupu
lously followed, and the patient began to
relish his medicine. One day his wife went
out to work away from homo, and neglect
ed to procure the usual allowance of stimu
lants. Thu patient missed his usual allow-,
ance of the ardent, and pined for his pota
tion. During the day the appetite grew so
strong upon him that he could uot resist.
Ho hobbled out of bed to the mantlepiece
and smiled at the jnrcoutainiug his pickled
toe. Ho didn't hku ihe idea'of driuking
the liquor, aud went back to bed. But tbe
smell of the bottle roused the demon appe
tite with ten-fold power, and he soon got
up aud drained the bottle. This served
him for it lime, but the appetite soon re
turned and must he appeased, and to do
this he got up, nnd there being no uinro li
quor, took his pickled toe back to bed with
him ami sucked it dry."
Coal Ashes in Poultry-House.
Tho following is from tho ioultry IForid :
"Dry earth is unquestionably the best
thing iu the world for the dusting-bin. It
may bo procured with very little trouble
during it dry spoil in summer. But if not
attended to ut the proper season, or if thu
supply gives out, then coal-ashes arc a very
good Bubstilute. One great merit which
they possess is, that as tukcu from tho
stove or furnace they are so very dry. Tha
dust-bin in the fowl-house should be so ar
ranged as not to gut her dampness from the
ground, for the drier its con teu is can be
kept the better. Coal-ashes should be fur-,
nished in n separate box, in case the dust- ,
bin is filled with diy earth, for ushes con
tain burnt slate nnd other earthy matter
greedily devoured by foul in winter, and
which serve to promote appetite aud diges
tion, nnd contain material for the forma-'
lion of esg-shells. Wood-ashes have been
recommended for fowls to roll in, as it is
said the potash they contain is noxious to
varmin. No doubt but it is too caustic for
the feet and skin of tho fow ls, aud iu wet
; weather forms a biting lye. Hens will not
' it : i -i - .i j . . l
wiiuow 111 woou-asues wnen ury earia is
accessible, and they ought to havo some
thing to say iu tho "matter."

A .nolttrr's Roy.
"Is there a vacant place in this bank
which 1 could fill V" was the inquiry of a
boy, as with glowing cheek he stood beforo
the maunger.
"There is none,' was the reply. "Were
you told that you could obtain a situation"
heie ? Who recommended you V"
"No one recommended mo, sir," calmly
responded tho boy. "I only thought I
1 would see."
There was a straightfordoess in the man
ner, an honest detcminatiou iu the coun
tenance of the lad, which pleased the mau'
of business, uud induced him to coutinuo
the conversation. He said, "You must
have frieuds who could uid you iu obtain
ing a situation ; have you told them V"
The quick flash of the deep blue eyes was'
quenched in the overtaking wave of sad
ness, as he said, though half musingly,'
"My mother s.iid it would be useless to try ,
without fiiends;" Iheu recollecting him
self, he apologized for the interruption and
was about to withdraw, when the geutlc
muu detaiued him by asking why he did
not rcmaiu at school for a year or two, uud
then enter the business world.
"I have no time," was tho reply. "I
study at home, and keep up with the other
boys."
"Theu you havo a pluce already," said
his interrogator. "Why did you leave it '
"1 havo not left," answered the buy qui
etly. "But you wish to leave ; what is the
matter ?"
For an instant the child hesitated : then
he replied, wiih half reluctant frankness,
"1 must do more for my mother !"
! Bravo words I talisman of success any
where, everywhere. They suuk iuto tho
heart of tho listener, recalling the radiact
past. Grasping the hand of the astonished
child, he said, with a quivering voice, "Mv
hoy, what is your name f You shall nil
the first vacancy for an apprentice that oc
curs iu the bank. If uicuntimo you need a
friend, come to me. But uow givo mo
your confidence. Why do you wish to do
more for your mother f Have you uo la
ther ?"
Tears filled his eyes as ho replied. "My
father is dead, my brolhsrs and sisters ate
dead, uud u:y mother and 1 are left alone
to help each other. But she is not strong,
and I wish to take care of her, sir, that
you have beeti so kind uud 1 am much ob
liged to you." So saying, tho boy left, lit
tle dreaming thut his own nobleness of
character hud been as a bright glunce of
suushiue iuto that busy world he had so
tremblingly entered. A boy animated by
a desire to help his mother will alway$ flutT
friends.
bTLl'iiENMiN. a country storekeeper,
was one day trying to sell Joe a pair of peg
ged boots. The old man give the arliclo
oUered a fair examination, aud decided uot
to purchase.
"Nice bools," said Steiihenson.
"Very nice boots," said Joe "but I cau't
alTord 'em.''
"Why, they areas cheap as any that
they can make," said Stephenson, "ouly
two dollars."
"Yes, only J don't keep auy hired uiun,'
returned Joe.
"Hired man ?" What do you want Of a
hired mau V" asked Stephenson, ''
"Well, I should want a hired' man if I '
bought them boots," said Joe, hi eye'
twisted up with ever a uwra comical leer "
than usual, "the last pair of boot 1 had ot
you pretty much ruined me."
"How was that V" asked Stephenson.- " '
"Why," said Joe, "all the time 1 tfore
tl em boots 1 had to take two incu along
wiih me, with hammers, one ou each side,' '
to nail on the soles every time 1 lifted my
feet." - ' 1
The tore-keeper made ho more effort to
tell the hoots to Jov,
