Has it ever been necessary for you to go away from home to buy some article of merchandise your “local merchant didn’t carry in stock? Haven’t you many times purchased something you didn't like and tried to make yourself believe you were contented, just because your local merchant didn’t have what you wanted and you bought anyway? Isn’t it a rather foolish proposition to buy something you know you don’t want just because your merchant says i t ’s right, when lie knows he is unable to show you something else tha t would suit your taste? Looking a t the matter from a business point of view, it stands to reason th a t the email town merchant cannot afford to buy heavily of any one class of merchant; he cannot dis­ play a varied assortment—because the volume of business lie does in a season will not demand it. i In every village and town in these United States, growing numbers of economical and exacting buyers supply their needs a t the city stores. To these people the Merchants’ Association of Springfield extends a most cordial invitation to visit the metropolitan establishments of the “Home City” Any article of merchandise known to the world is always carried in stock* The assortment is necssarily large because of the thousands of patrons to satisfy—both as to th( ir fan­ cies and their pocketbooks. If you are not pleased with what is first shown by the sales person, there is more of the same? high-class merchandise—in other sizes, in other styles, a t other prices. , _ / Hundreds of persons are becoming satisfied customers of Springfield stores every day. If you would bu t make the initial trip, you would not even consider trading elsewhere. , Free Carfares to Springfield and Return Every Day in the Year. , ^ tills; kiaft of /detreftive work hewent.’ a hit , away. of string, and absolutely objectiona- s “Some of the people thfreakout who ble on the subject of stray pieces of know a tlfim:,' or two remark d tkafc brown paper they should not be ae- , the fellow, war, a linear detective, let- -cused of having bad dispositions, d ig everybody know what he and his nor should thev be suspected of do- ; business was.'

They Wcro Uc:;:! When Gallants in Franco Did Fancy'Work. During the old regime in France, about v,ajch f-o much glamour re­ mains to uy, tlie very men who v/ero living and making the history of the empire of Louis passed their hjisuro time in a wav that seems to us of ii-Jay utterly ridiculous. In all the fancy work on which ladies employ-, ed them- olves the men seem to kavo taken part. Poinsinet in one of his .comedies represents a ung marquis enter­ ing a room w,. re two fair damsels are embroidering. One is working a piece of dress trimming, the other a Marly flounce, The beau examines the embroidery with the eye of a connoisseur, points’ out here and there the specially good touches and is too polite to notice any-defects, lie.takes a little gold tube out of the pocket of his richly decorated waistcoat and selects a dainty gold needle. He goes to tho frame at which Cidalise is working and fin­ ishes the flower which she had be­ gun, From her he moves to the sofa gnd, seizing one end of the flounce, assists Ismene, to whom he pays special attention, to complete ucr task. At tliis time it was the custom of the Indies invariably to carry their ivorkbags with them to the evening tvt options,, in which they had not only their embroidery materials, but the last novel, the popular songs, their patch boxes and rouge pots. Gentlemen also carried deftly em­ broidered little bags intb company,- which held “a whole arsenal of cut­ lery and fancy articles, such as boxes of different shapes filled with lozenges, bonbons, snuff and scent.** At another period the fashion of the day was* to cut dut drawings from books and pamphlets and to paste them on screens, lamp shades, boxes and vases. The skill in this was to so arrange the drawings or parts of different drawings as to produce a curious or amusing ef­ fect, Then there came a season when all tho rage was for charades and riddles, which gave a peculiarly good opportunity to exercise the light and rapid wit so conspicuous in the French. Every evening the drawing rooms wore converted into impromptu charades. Some lady would suggest a word or phrase, and forthwith it would be converted into the subject of a sprightly little play. Many of the wo£l games now cur­ rent with us in America had their origin in tho necessity the French Ealons were under in the last cen­ tury to divert themselves. In some of the salons tho fashion of keep­ ing a daily chronicle of news, which was too often a mere chronicle of scandal, was adopted. Mme. Dou­ blet do I’oman issued bulletins which she called “nouvelles a la main.” Tn her apartments two .reg­ isters were kept, one of the authen­ tic news received here and there by her guests, the other of floating ru­ mors and on dits, and from these the budget of her chronicle was made up and circulated throughout France.—-Appleton’s Magazine. Tclegr.iphor’a Cramp. An interesting feature of teleg­ rapher’s cramp is that certain let­ ters lire nearly always the stumbling Week., The most frequent are (J and Y—that is, the code signals med for tuo'e letters. When a sender begins to l;e “conscious” about so common a letter as 0 his ca :ebo<;ii becomes hopclew. Anoth­ er form of cramp attacks the re­ ceiver of the mi- :sage. It take.-, the form of inability to write fast enough to fake down a message quii.kly tre u matted. This is easily umler.'tood when it is remembered that a res elver often has to write continual:: Ip to code dictation, i -o to speak, for fl’min at a time. The strain involved is enormous and lead-i fairly commonly to what is practically a form of nervous break­ down.—Dundee Ad v-ertiser, Tho Black Okssp. “What/* asked the man who had returned to liir, native town after an absence of many years, “became of Ed Ferguson E* “Ed?
