"Now, for the temperance folk there are blazinK signs of warning in such names as Whisky Lane, Uin Point, Jug town and Bnm Tavern. There nsed to be an innkeeper in the latter place, by the way, who sued the authorities once a year for maintaining such a title and nlwaya compromised for 6 cents, with which he bought himself a drink and was well sat isned. One year the authori ties started in to fight the case and tbe innkeeper in disgust quit the business and Bum Tavern simultaneously. A place with a suggestive title is Naugh right, which got its name from a large farm owner's sign, nailed on a tree at the roadside, 'No right of way here.'

"There are some names more sag gestive than beautiful Sorabbletown, Scrapetown, Slabtown, 8aznptown and. Solitude, for instance. Some belie their names, like Reckless town, which is as peaceful as a graveyard and in the same general line of business, keeping its inhabitants bnried far from the cares of this busy world. Then there's Round about, which is a plain fonr corners irossing, and Small Lots, with nothing but wide stretches of countryside. As for Pellettville, I've heard that there isn't a drug store there, but I can't swear as to that, not having been there for many years " "Look here," put in tbe New York er.

New York Ban. Tho BookfcMoer's Mete Metro, Ask a bookkeeper what his "black beast" is, and ha will toll yon tbs monthly trial balance. Pome of yon know what that is, of course, but the majority of yon perhaps do not Let us explain briefly. In donbln entry bookkeeping, the only kind that de serves tbe mime of bookkeeping, every debit must have its credit thnt is to y, every item thnt Is carried to the debit of one account most be carried to tbe credit of another. 8ny, for exmiiple, yon bay bill of goods from a merchant. He enters the amount to yonr debit on his books and at tlio annio time rredits an neconnt cnlled "merehnndiso, ' this neconnt be ing debited with all tho goods brought into tho stock and credited with all the gnoda sold from it. When yon pny the hill, yon are credited with tho n in on tit, end an net ntint called "rush Is de bit ed, beratisn it receives tbe money. I bis will explain to the tininitinted the inclining of the term "tlouhln en try," and it will alen explain why, , after the entries bnvo all been carried to tho ledger and balance hnvn been struck tin rrcn, tho debits nnd the cred its will ngree if tho books have been correctly kept. To test tho correctness of his work the bookkeeper takes off every month a trial balance, which consists simply of the debit balances in one colnmn and the credit balances in another. If they foot np tbe same, the work bna bren correctly done. If they rnry, he must look for and find the er ror or emirs before tho next month's business la entered on tho ledger. Yon can readily understand, there fore, why the trial balance is the book keeper's "black beast " We havekuown cases in which trifling errors have elud ed tho most cnresul anarch for several days and nights and even for weeks, torturing the soul of the bookkeeper almost past endurnnre. But he has to stand it, for the error must be found.

I refer now to the small piece of blotting paper tbat we pick np and press npon the freshly written lines by rubbing it with the finger tip. Continual rubbing makes the side that is rubbed upon smooth and oily and less absorbent If we turn the blotter over now and then and get a fresh snrfuce and rub indiffer ently on either side, wo soon get both sides more or less oily, and then it doesn't blot perfectly on either side. It is better to use it always the same side down, so that whatever moisture may be transferred from tbe Super tips is kept all on one side. Thus nsed, the blot ter will take np ink more satisfactorily and for a longer time than it would if we kepi turning it over. "Atlanta Constitution. frwe of Aelanoa.
