How to DtHLD ur a Town. An

way to build up a town is for every busi

houses on tho street. It draws tiadc to

anything, ho goes where be sec the
most men trying to sell tint article. If
ho wants to sell anything, he goes whore
tho most men are buying. If a man
wants to buy groceries or foil produce,
he goes to the business man that adver

and what he has to sell.

Etiquette. The word "etiquette"
means, in its original French, a ticket
or card. In former times, it was the
custom in Trance, on occasions of cere
mony or festivity, to distribute among
tho guests, tickets, or small bits of pa
per, coutaiuitig an outline ot the pro
ceedings, and directions for tho con
duet of the company. Thus if a thing
was done rroneilv, it was said to be
done according to the ticket or the
etiquette. In the course of time the
word acquired its present meaning, and
was adopted into the hoglish language,

Female Delfcacv. Abovo all
other features which adorn the female
character, delicacy stands foremost
within tho province of good taste. Not
that delicacy which is perpetually in
quest of something to be ashnined of;
which makes merit ablush, and simpers
at the false construction which her own
ingenuity had put upon an innocent re
mark this spurious kind of delicaey is
removed from good sense but the high
minded delicacy, which maintains its
pure, undeviating way, just alike among
women and tho society of men; which
shiiuks from no necessary duty, and
can speak when required, with a seri
ousness, of thing's of which it would be
iishamed to smile or blush; that delicacy
which knows how to confer a benefit
without wounding the feelings ot an.
other, which can give alms without as
sumption, and pains not the most sus
ceptible iu creation.

feet to two feet, is from one-half to one
third that of the standard guago of four

No need to press hard, and neither tho

bride had never done her own washing;
but after married she became so fond of
the wash-tub, as not only to work tor
her own family, but for several families
among her acquaintances.

three points.
Theso three points are tho gateways
into three great sections of tho trans-

The Northern gate is Omaha, where
tho groat PaciQo road will take you to
tho land of gold and grapes, suuny

Tho middle gate is Plattsniouth, which

south of the Platto river, a region un
