Presidential Post Offices.
President Cleveland is moving
slowly in the matter of appointing
post masters of the nrst ana secona
class. Both the President and Post
Master General are overrun with anx
ious anplicants. When the Post Mas-
ter General is interviewed, he directs
them to file their application, and
await the decision. One of the inflex
ible rules is that the present incum
bents shall serve out the remainder of
the time for which they are appointed
and a second requisite is that the ap
plicant must be well endorsed by the
party organization. Unless a candi
date is accompanied by the congress
man, and has his hearty support, ana
the commission of the occupant is
about expiring the interview is of no
avail. Failing to get any encourage
ment before the Post Master General,
a mad rush is made for the President
only to meet with the same result.
The President and his cabinet have
made inflexible rules. An applicant
will do well to head them. Neither
time nor advantage can be gained by
undue haste.

SEEKING FARMER CLIENT.
From the Chicago Intpr-Ocenn.
He had come to Chicago from the
country, principally to get legal help
in prosecuting a railroad for running
over his cow.
He brought up in one of the big
office buildings toward evening and
explained his grievance to a lawyer.
"1 am to understand, then, said
the lawyer, "that this cow was run
over by a train at a crossing ?"
"Yey j that's it."
"What kind of an animal was she Y'
"Well, she was a pietty cood critter:
didn't have no tricks and would give a
gallon twice a day."
"Valuable animal, I seer
"Yes, purty good."
"What breed ?"
"I dunno."
"You don't know ? Was she badly
injured ?"
"Injured ? She was killed deader'n
a door hail."
"And buried?"
"Sure."
"Why, man alive, she was a fine
Jersey "
"Oh, nn, she warn't."
"Yes, she was. Why, you glibber-
ing old blockhead, did you ever hear
of a cow that was run over by a rail
road and safely buried that was not a
fine Jersey with a pedigree three miles
long and worth $400 ?"

Speaking about Clothing
It's not a very interesting subject for everyone and yet,
it interests a great many. Every one likes to be well
dressed but a great many get confused on the subject.
Some think, that to be well dressed, they should go to ft
Custom Tailor and get measured
Never Thinking
That there are garments turned ont by ready made stores
that will fit just as well trimmed just as well, and look
just as well and at a price about one half of what a Cus
tom Tailor would ask.
We're Clothiers
But we're also Merchant Tailors so to ppeak, only that
we have our goods already made up. We take particu
lar pain with each and every garment, as to fit, work
manship and finish, and you can rest assured that when
a garment leaves our store it will prove satisfactory to
the wearer.
