Some Advertisements
Remind
Of an empty-wagon going down hill, the lighter the
load the greater the noise. We are not smart
er than other people. Our money won't buy goods
cheaper than other peoples money. People don't
buy our goods because we claim they are worth
double what we ask for them. They buy them on
their merits and they know that what they see
in our store and ads is so.

LEGAL ADVICE.
A Story Showing How Foolish It I ta
Try to Gat It For Nothing.
A young lnwyer moved Into a 'town
where there wag only oue lawyer be
fore nu old Judge.
A close listed old dinner thought
there was a good chance to get some
legal advice from the young man
gratis, so he dropped luto his office.
told him how glad he was lliat ho had
come Into. town, liocnuse the old judge
was getting superannuated, and con
trived In the course of his talk to (jet
the legal Information he wanted, and
then bidding him good morning he wait
nbout to leave when the young man
asked for his fee. "What for?" said
the old man. "For legal advice," re
plied the young lawyer. "How much
Is It?" "Five dollars." The farmer
declared he would never pay It, mid
the young lawyer told him if lie didn't
lie would sue him. So the farmer
trotted down to see the old Judge,
whom he found hoeing In his gar
den, and said, "Judge, I went this
morning Just simply to make a neigh
borly call on that young scamp of a
lawyer who has Just come Into town
and he charged me $3." "Served you
right," said the Judge. "You'd no right
to go to him." "Well, have I got to
pay It?" "Certainly you have." "Well,
then, If I must, I must. Oood morn
ing." "Hold on," said the Judge.
"Aren't yon going to pay me?" "Pay
you, what for?" "Why, for" legal ad
vice, of course." "What do you
charge?" "Ten dollars." The result
of which was the old fellow had to pay
$5 to the young lawyer and $10 to the
old one.
Moral. Don't try to get legal advice
for nothing. Exchange.
THE POSTAGE STAMP.
Order In Which It Was Adopted by
Different Countriei.
The first postage stamp seems to
have been used In Taris In It 153, but
the service In which the stamp was
.used was only local and soon failed.
On May 0, 1840, the first regular post
age stamps were issued In England.
Various local forwarders of letters and
postmasters In this country Issued
stnmps as early as 1841. The first to
do so was A. M. Grieg's City Dispatch
Dost, which was sold to the govern-
l ment In August. 1842. Blood & Co. of
i Philadelphia sold stamps in 1841, and
j the postmasters of Baltimore, New
Haven nnd New York of 1845 also sold
I stamps.
In 1847 the government took up the
business, but Brazil in 1843 was ahead
of the United States In taking np the
Btnmp end of the postal business. The
other principal countries followed In
this order: France, Belgium and Ba
varia In 1840; Hanover, British Gui
ana, Prussia, Spain and Switzerland In
1850; Italy, Denmark, Baden, Wurttem
berg, Saxony and the provinces of
Canada In 1851 ; Chile and the princes of
Turin and Taxis (who had the postal
monopoly In Germany) In 1S52; Portu
gal In 1853; India nnd Norway in 1854;
Uruguay nnd Mexico In 1850; Russia
and Newfoundland In IS57; Sweden in
1858; the Australian colonies early In
the fifties; Greece In 18(11; Turkey In
1803; Ecuador In 18(55; Egypt In 1800;
Bolivia in 1867; Paraguay in 1870.
The International postal union van
formed In October, 1874, nnd went Into
operation on July 1, 1875.
What Women Wear In Iceland.
The usual dress of the women of Ice
land, irrespective of wealth or station,
consists of a long garment of wadmol,
hanging from the shoulders to the
heels and fastened with a bright clasp
at the neck. Over this two or three
blue or white petticoats are worn,
while a blue cap, banging down on one
side of the head, completes the cos
tume. On Sundays and festivals the
dresses are both peculiar and striking
In appearance. There Is a bodice, or
namented with gilt buttons and red
and black velvet. Over this la a tight
fitting velvet Jacket, or "treja," be
neath two or three bright petticoats,
blue or red worsted stockings and
shoes of seal or shark skin. The whole
Is surmounted by a remarkable bend
dress, very beautiful In effect. The
"faldur," as It It called, is made of
stiffly starched white linen, kept In
place by innumerable pins and measur
ing often so much as two feet in
height Scottish Nights.

But the intelligent American

things which make against, his

Therefore we believe that
when you become acquainted
