Knowing it to be for my best interests, and believing it to be for the best interests of my customers, I shall continue to sell for cash only. The following are a few of my reasons: First Taking no risks I can afl'ord to sell at a lower rate of profit. Second I will not be at the expense of keeping a book-keeper (seventy-five dollars a month.) Third 1 will not have to spend a week out of every month trying to make collections. Fourth I will have time to give more attention to my business and consequently give better satisfaction to my customers, and finally I solicit only cash trade. J. M. Nolan.

Judge MacArthur calls attention to one of the schools of France, calied the Munici pal College of Apprentices, which was founded at the expense of Paris, and did not begin until 1872. No pupil is admitted before the age of 13, and instruction lasts three years, one-half of the time bsing given to schooling and tbe other half to practical work. A iother notable school in Europe for manual craft is at Besaucon. This is a technicii school, founded at the expense of the city, aud especially devoted to watch manufacture. Besancon manufactures four tifths of all the watches sold in France, and the object of the school is to thoroughly teach their children their trade. They are taught not only to turn and temper metals, ami to make the several parts of a watch, but to manipulate atoms as small as the grain- of saud that drops through the hour gia-sr and their technical education in cludes everything leariug upon the work, 5uch as arithmetic, mensuration, geography, mechanical drawing, geometry and compo sition. This school is supported by the public taxation of the town of Besaucon, whose people understand that they can only keep their trade by education iu watch-making. Besancon is not far from Switzerland, and was an old iloman city. Another notable school Judge MacArthur refers to is that of the Christian Brothers in Paris, a scries of buildings surrounding a plav-ground. The students go in at 8 or 9 years, and at 13 are put to a trade. In the mean time they are instructed in all elemen tary branches, in architectural and mechan ical drawing, both ont'ine aud shade, free hand drawing, the rudiments of design, and when at 13 they g to trades under the same geueral roof they gild, carve in wood or stone, make trunk, shoes, clothes; they weave, bind book?, make all kinds of instrumental, musical, mathematical and astronomical, and in all there are 130 in the institution who give two hours in the workshop and the rest to the"- boohs. They pay about 20 cents a day for board, lodging aud instruction, and those unable to pay the whole amount are assisted out of a charitable fund. When these boys come out of school they not only know as much as any of our boys from the public schools, but thoy have a t.-ade rigbain hand. Among their teachers are practical mechanics and workmea, aud the third year the pupil piok3 out that which is adapted to his talents. Another school of manual labor which is referred to is that at Cruzot, where are the most important iron works in France. This formerly poverty-stricked vi'lae had about become ruined iu the iron trade, when the Schneider family took possession of it. They had teachers in elementary studies, natural philosophy, chemistry of me: als, modeling, drawing, and when they found ?ny pupil e'lpecial'y hue or improving they sent him away to the technical schools and brought him back to assist in the management. The rest of the boys are drafted from the school into the works some as plain workmen, others as accountants and draftsmen. It is said there is not a man in this school amont; the mechanics employed in the construction of engines who could not make an accurate drawing of the work on which he is en gaged. The little town has shot up to be well-built, well paved, .vith churches, schools, markets and 24,000 finely -educated aud sclf-respectiug people. There is a technical school at Limoge3, where works in enamel are made and have been made for a great many years. Just previous; to the American revolution kaolin was discovered near by and porcelain works established, und Limoges ware is known all over t1 world. This ware continued to inrX-e until in 18o'2 a bright minded man uamad Adrien Dnboncbe took his ovn money and established a school, and the tow n also grouted a subvention to it. He then established free town school to teach the fine arts as applied to the industrial arts, and gave them his personal attention and supervision. Consequently Limoges has risen to become a huge place, the pro eelain manufacture has become immense, t'-e private habits of the people wonderfully improved, aud now that school is called the National School of the Deoorati' e Art, and is open to both boys' aud girls. They have soecial courses for drawing for all traue purposes, pottery, enameling and engraving. Boys must be over 13 years of age on enter ing, and girls over 12. The tuition is free. The French have besides three great schools to train superintendents and foremen of workshops, and for artisans, located at Chalons, at Angers and at Aix, each with 300 pupils admitted upon competitive ex animations, all between the ages of 15 or 17 and they live in the school building. Seven hours of labor a day are devoted to practical instruction in four workshops, namely, in carpedtry and modeling, foundry, forging and adjusting. Uarblo Dealers Correction.
