A contributor to 2'ttwe recounts the
following instance of animal sympathy
and instructive example:
Some years ago we had two cats, a
tabby and a powerful torn, perfectly
white all over. One day 1 happened to
b'J in the attic, and noticed them go
out on the s'ate-, when Tom jiunp.jd
Kro-3 the yard to the next roof. it j
appeared to me a splendid leap, con-,
sideling the width of the- yard and the
height of the roof.
When Tabby came to the edge of tlv?
slates her courage failed, and sLo
uttered a cry of distress, whereupon
Tom turned round aad leaped back,
md, giving a cheerful mew, as ruueli
ns to say, "Look how easily i: c ai hi
done," jumped aeros- again, this time
followed by Tabby, to my gicat de-light.

THINK RE FORE YOC TK 1 U JC. j
I remember read in i: sn m 1 -vhood, j
lays a wviter in J -oic-: !-. ai.'out a j
i
merchant travelling on hor-eluck, ac- j
compauicd by his dog. lie dismounted j
for some purpose, :::d :i.'C.de;it.iUy ;
iropped hi piuau''1 d money. Tiie
dog saw it; the merchant d id not. The j
dog barked to stop him, and as he rode i
farther, bounded in front of the hers-?, !
i
and barked loud r and louder. Tha j
merchant thought he had gone mad, 1
drew a pistol from hi- bolster and shot
Sim. The wounded d.g crawled back
!o the package, and whe.i th m-'rehaat
discovered his loss and rode l.-ai k. ho
found his dying dog ivin there, faith
fully guarding the treasure.
The following little stoiy, told b- a
friend of mine, is not as painful, but
adds force to the thought, "Tnink be
fore you strike any creature that cannot
speak :' '
"When I was a boy, I worked for a
farmer, and was given a span of horses
!o plough with, one of which was a
four-year-old colt. The colt, aft-.r
walking a few steps, would lie down in
the furrow. The farmer was provoked,
md told me to sit ou the colt's head, to
vcep him from rising, while he whipped
him 4to break him of that notion,' as
Le said. But just then a neighbor
rams by. He said, 'There's something
wrong here; let him get up, and let ns
$x amine.' lie patted the colt, hvdc
at his harness, and then said. 'Loo k at
this collar; it is so long and narrow,
md carries the harness so liirrh, that
"hen he begins to pull it i;-; ieu k
md chokes him so he can't hiwit :.'
And so it was; and but for that -n ib
bor, we should have wdiipoe.l a; kin i a,
creature as we had on t he farm, because
he lay down when l.e ouM uo
breathe."
It was only the other day 1 heard l
i valuable St. Bernard do- In,.- iaot
because, having a wound on his head,
eoncealed by the hair, he bit a ; on
who handled him roughly.

I take great pleasure in announcing to my friends
and patrons that my MAMMOTH STORE is now
FULL AND RUNNING OVER with the largest and
most varied assortment of
RICH MD BEAUTIFUL GOODS
OF EVERY GRADE I EVER HAVE HAD,
I have been in the Northern Markets for over six
weeks selecting such goods as I knew would please my
customers, and now as my shelves are loaded down
with all the novelties of the season I propose to make
things lively.
I SHALL MAKE BEY GOODS TUMBLE,
And the Prices Down to Almost Nothing.
It is a fact which cannot be disputed, that I can save you at Jeabt 25 per cent, on all your purchases
you have to make. You all know that when a man buys his goods from the Manufacturers' and pays tbe
tiard cash down, he is able to undersell all others who are buying their goods on "tick."
