Stellar Oil
FOR
ILLUMINATING PURP08ES.
The nronrletor of this Oil has for several vears
felt the necessity of providing for, and presenting
to the Dulilic. as a substitute for the daimerons
compounds which are sent broadcast over the
country, an oil that is HAFE and BRILLIANT,
and entirely rename. Alter a long series 01 lano
rlous and costly experiments, he has succeeded In
substitute In "CARSON'S 8TELLAU OlL" It
should be used Dy every family,
1ST, Because it Is safe beyond a question. The
primary purpose In the preparation of STELLAR
OIL has been to make It PERFECTLY SAFE,
thus Insuring the lives and property of those who
nse it
ZD, Because it Is the most BRILLIANT liquid II
umlnator now known.
SD, Because It Is more economical, in the long
run, than any of the dangerous oils and fluids
now In too common use.
4TH, Because It is Intensely BRILLIANT, and
therefore economical, giving the greatest possl
ble light at the least expenditure to the consum
er. Its present standard of SAFETY AND
BRILLIANCY will always be maintained, for
upon this the proprietor depends for sustaining
the high reputation the STELLAR OIL now
enjoys.
To nrevent the adulteration of this with the ex
plosive compound)! now known under the name of
Kerosene, ic, sc., n ib put up ior laniiiy use in
KIva Unllnii cans, each eau belnff sealed, and
stamped with the trade-mark of tiie proprietor; It
cannot be tampered with between the manufac
turer and consumer. None Is genuine without the
TltitliK-MAKK.
8TKI.LAK OIL Is sold only by weight, each can
containing live gallons nt six and a half pounds
each, thus securing to every purchaser full meas
ure. It is the duty and Interest of all dealers and
consumers of llluuilnatlngoll to use the blKLLAK
OIL only, because it alone Is known to be safe aud

June 4.1872,
A Cheap Share.
One day last week a sUut follow, with it
beard like a slioe-brusli, went into the bar
ber shop of Mansfield & Button, Exchange
St., Rochester, aud took a chair for a shave.
One of the young men in attendance wai
ted upon him promptly, gave hira a close
shave, and put him in flret-raW order to
make a decent appearance In the streets.
When the process was complete and the
stranger was ready to depart, he made an
inspection of his pockots, and finally found
a cent, which he handed to the boy in pay
ment for the service he had performed. II
was politely informed that the price of
shaving was a sixpence. The man replied
very cooly, " I know it, and that (pointing
to the cent) only lacks five cents of it t You
ain't agoing to stand for half a dime?"
There was no appeal from this. All the
peoplo in the shop, customers included,
wero convulsed with laughter at the im
pudence of the fellow, but his gravity was
unshaken. lie took his hat and doparted,
calculating, no doubt, that he had driven a
good bargain with the barber, and was
soon casting about for another chance to
save half a dime.
Didn't Give It Up.
One of our citizens is blessed, or other
wise, with a vory stubborn wile. In bis
case he finds that when a woman will she
will, you may depend on't and when Blie
won't she won't an that's an end on't. The
peculiarity of disposition in his wife is no
secret among his associates and one of them
meeting him the other day asked;
" Well , do you know why you are
like a donkey ?"
" Like a donkey!" echoed W , open
ing his eyes wide. " No I don't."
"Do you give it up?"
" I do."
" Becauso your better half is stubborn
ness itself."
" That's not bad. Ila 1 ha I I'll give that
to my wife when I go home."
" Mrs. W " he asked as he sat down.
to supper, "do you know why I am like a
donkey?"
Ho waited a moment, expecting his wife
to give it up, but she didn't, she looked at
him somewhat commiseratingly as she
answered:
"I suppose it's because you were born,
so."
W has abjured the habit of putting.
conundrums to his wife.
How he dot Over.
In Scotland they have narrow, open-
ditches they call sheep-drains. A man was
riding a donkey one day across a sheep pas
ture, and when Mr. Donkey came to a
sheep-drain he would not go over it. So
the man rode him back a Bhort distance,,
and turned him around, and put the whip
to him, thinking of course that the donkey
going so fast, would jump the drain before
he ever knew it. But not so. On they
came, ahd when the donkey got to the
drain he stopped all of a sudden, and the
man we nt over Mr. Donkey's head. No
sooner had he touched the ground than he
got up, and looking Mr. Donkey straight
in the face, he said, " Very wool pitched,
but then how are ye going to get over yer
sol'?" t3yTho following epistlo is from a fond
mother: Mr. Teacher If my gal gets con
trerry aud don't bchaiv respecterbal and
don't learn fast, and don't get into gogera
fy, take the hide clean of ov her if she is
10 & kick up a fus. I d idn't write this. I
aiu't,much eddicated. It is rote by very
truly yours.
Polly Peterson.
t3TX man travelling, entered a tavern
and seeing no one present but the landlord
and a negro, seated himself, and entered
into conversation with the negro. Shortly,
he asked Sambo if he was dry? Sambo
said he was. Stranger told him to go to
the bar, and take something at his ex
pense. Negro did so, and shortly ' left.
Landlord says to the stranger:
'Are you acquainted with that nigger?"
" No, never saw him before ; but why do
you ask ?"
" I supposed so from your conversing
with blm,and asking him to drink."
"Oh," said tbe stranger, "I was experi
menting. Tbe fact is, I was dry too, and I
thought that if your liquor didn't kill tbe
negro in fifteen minutes, I would venture
to take a drink myself."
Landlord's curiosity fully satisfied.
tSfJi- Complacent landlord of a moun
tain hotel at breakfast the other morning,
planted bis thumbs in bis waistcoat arm
bolds leaned significantly back in bis chair
and said: " Gentlemen, where do you
think that beefsteak comes from ?" "From
near the horn," was the quiet reply of one
of the boarders. It is singular that the
landlord hasn't put any conundrums to
bis boarders since.
tW" How one thing brings up another,"
said a lady absorbed in pleasing retrospec
tion. "Yes," replied the practical Dibbs,
an emetio for instance.
nr' I'm not myself at all to day," said
a bore to a wit. "No matter for that,"
was the reply ; " Whoever else you be,
you are the gainer bythe change."
