The mill agent importer or manu facturer takes orders for a line of goods from jobbers and from large retailers for a full opening supply, but a great many of them are thus sold on a guar antee that is, the buyers can return what they da not sell a pretty safe busiuess for the buyer. When the goods fail to move at a stipulated price, tbe sellers are notified that a certain quan tity will be returned. Then new nego tiations begin.

Then comes his announcement of a large purchase from a well kuown manufacturer or importer, greatly be low cost, and being content with a small profit tbey are to be sold below cost Very often, therefore, these sales do not mean a loss to the retailer or to tbe importer, but usually to tba maker of the goods, whether doinestio or for eign.

Y. How To Dust FnrLitnre. Dust is always a grief of mind to tbe careful housewife, who, like tbe virtu ous woman of holy writ, looketh well to the ways of ber household. It bath all sea-sous for its own, and tho only way to conquer it is to pursue it steadily. A feather duster is an abomination fxcept for tbe topsof j.'tt urv, eta, since it only stirs up the dust from one spot iu order to allow it to settle on another, wbile wiping with a damp cloth, which in any but Judici ous hands is apt lo be a wet oue, is too apt to smear the furniture. All furni ture should be dusted regularly with due regard to the corners, where most of the dust accumulates. The best thing for carved furniture is a soft, thick paint brush, which will get iuto all the interstices of the pa'tern. When these are clogged take another brush, wet with keroeene oil, to clean them out. After using thecil rub dry with a soft cloth. Flannelette makes the best dust cloths, aud squares of it are now sold ready hemmed for the purpote in our large stores. For highly polished surfaces use chamois skin. And be sure to keep your chamois clean. It can be washed with very little trouble, only be sure to bang it t'j carefully to dry, wringing well, and then puttiog it into shape, Tiie bamboo beater is the best thing for rugs and portieres, but it is useless to beat upholstered furniture. A still' whisk should be used, and all crevices should be wtdl brushed out and the lint and dust brushed off after this is d.uie. It is wonderful bow much dust a tufted chair can bold no v-oiidrr m tid aud mistress alike wonder where the dust conies from, forsummer, win ter, w hether it blows ia at open win dows or sifts up through furnace flues, like the grass of the poem, it comes "creeping everywhere," and finds a lodgment In every Inch of space ex posed. Now that bookcases with glass doors are no longer fashionable, books are usually open to tbe dust and need sys tematic and careful attention to pre serve them from damage. They should be taken from the shelves at least once or twice a month and wiped with a soft, dry cloth, which should be shaken out of the window repeatedly during the work of dusting. Remem ber always that iu brushing dust from an object you scatter it, but wiping it o.T with a cloth you gather it up aud remove it altogether. Mr. John Peterson, of Patoutville, La., was very agreeably surprisied not long ago. For eighteen mouths be bad been troubled with dysentery and had tr'ud three of the best doctors in New Orleans, besides half a dozen or more pateut medicines, but received very little relief. Cbamberlaio's Colic Chol era and Diarrhoea Itemedy, having been recommended to him, he gave it a trial and to his great surprise, three doses of that remedy effected a per manent cure. Mr. Win. McXamara, a well kuown merchant of the same place, is well acquainted with Mr. Peterson and attests to the truth of this statement. This remedy is fur sale by all druggists. Young men who are always wanting to die for some damsel cau now rhew their mettle in behalf of the goddess of libtrty. Chicago Uecord. It is economy to profit by the expe rience of others. Thousands have been cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla, w hy not you. TREASURER'S SALE -OF- Unseated Lands.
