; Trade At Vome.
A well known trade journal remarks
that no town can be permanently pro3
)rous in which the citizens and trades
men dependent" upon-eah other. The
merchant wants a harness for instance,
and imagines he can save fifty cents by
Rending to another town or state, for
his harness. The harness maker, sends
away for his , groceries, boots, shoe8
and clothing. T The shoemaker sends
for his coat, and tailor for his boots,
and so it goes. As a result, the farm
ers, coming to town to ? trade, se all
the tradesmen sending t other towns
for goods because tfyey, say they can
save money by bo doing, come '. to the
conclusion that they can do better
elsewhere, and theu every body growls
about bad times aud.no business. No
wonderl The business men themselves
turn the tide of trade elsewhere, for if
they can supply themselves to better
advantage by depriving their neighbors
of their trade, others learn to try the
same experiment It is a dangerous
one to Sai'iit?! $ YMH
can be saved in thejmrchase of har
ness, a pa ft of jbod'iii'ltmillotbR,
a hat, a battel bf flower or a 'VaiTpt
calico, teii dollars are . lost where ''. onr
is saved, au Ihe entire business of tho
plico goes to decav. The fact is thevgarif
nothing buf j'oso in sending away their
trade fromj themselves, j Show uss a
tU3ra
town in wlacb: the people make1 it K resembles genuine tea than' the electric
rule not tacsend away for anythioglight is comparable to moonlight. Tea
they can get at home, and we will haw4hould always be made on the table,

purchase. anj th business r of the
town will languish.
Having no,

dence in each other, how can thfcy ,

That's not the way to build up a town.
Patronize each other, and. keep all
your business at tome. ' ;
The J'riee beer and H hiakey.
Temperanoe advocates tell us that if
everybody would stop drinking beer
and whiskey . business would immedi-,
ately revive. jiThat sounds, like an
overdrawn, statement, but it has often
beeii shown 'that those-who drink pay
more money into the coffers of the sal -oous
than the whole country pays in
taxes, e If it.wei-e not so evident that
the appetite clouds the reason it
would appear amazing that men,' who
will.: haggle '.overia'!: fewceuts'ixi. the
price of apair of boots, which are old
at a very s;uaii iironr, or will DUV aaul-L
terated coffee because it "is 'a "little"
cheaper than the genuine, will pay im
mense profits on the beer and whiskey
they drink without a thought of the
way! in which they are imposed upon.
The followiug statistics; are qUoted to
illustrate this drain upori the'drinkers:
A glass of beer costs hve cents. There i
are C40 glasses in a barre', so that the
retailer receives $32 foi every barrel of
beer the draws " The profit is some
thing like 400 per cent. At least 15,
000,000 barrels of beer were consumed
in this country lst year, for which the
drinkers paid the aggregate of $480,
000,000. Whiskey and othei, strong
drinks average seteu cents a glass or
$4.48 a gallon at retail. About 78,
000,000 gallons were imbibed in this
country last year, the drinkers' paying
therefor nearly $350,000,000. Now
supposing " this $300,000,000 spent
yearly for drinks that do no good, were
sired or spent for- articles of use ard
real comfort., , .That, vast sum , woujd
buy a good suit of clothes " for every
man in the land, give everv women', a
decent dress and bonnet, and clothe and
shoe every child. The economical uses
of $800,000,000, put where it ' would
do the most good instead of where it
does . the most evil, are incalculable,
and those who tell us that business
would at' puce revive if every body
stopped drlnkingj" do" not appear to be
very far out of the way after all.

MRS. GRAFTS IXCOM1J.
Notwithstanding the financial diia
culties thati, cut short the career ol
General Grant and which were brought
about by his connection with the firm
of Grant & Ward, his widow is left in
very comfortable circumstances. Mrs.
Grant will havt the income of the fund
of $250,000 raised by the proprietor of
the New York Times, wh;ch was inves
ted five yearsf ago for the i us of the
general, and which was beyond his
reach in life and is;beyorid. the reach of
his creditors now. The income for
Genetal Grant's book is understood to
be secured as the exclusive property)
of Mrs. Grant and will be subject to
herowncontrol and use. A leading
southern senator has already drawn up
a bill to iutroduce in tho next session
giving trs"Giafi; the $5000 pension
per year-granted .to the wives of de
ceased; ?presidt3ats. The profits from
the soldier's autobiography as estima
ted will be $300,000, and not less than
$250,000. All these sums certainly
oujht to place Mrs. Grant beyond the
reach ! of the caprice of fortune. The
widow of-the' "hero of Appomattox"
will be in far better circumstances than
any of the;widows of our past presi
dents,' not even excepting --Mrs. Gar
field. : The widow of President Tyler
has no income but the $5000 annuity
gran ted her by congress. Mrs. - J ames
K. Pq!k has her Nashville home, be
sides a small income brought by inter
est on Tennessee bonds , which that
state in its; insolvency has never de
faulted, in addition to her $5000 per
year pension Mrs. -Garfield has her
beautiful Mentcr home and a residence
in Cleveland, Ohio; the $5000 annuity
and the income from the $300,000 fund
contributed soon after, her husband's
SHd demise. Standard.
A Good Cup of Tea.
Tea is one of the most delicious
of
of summer drinks, but few persons
know how to prepare it so that it is
refreshing, palatable and ixx, a certain
sense aesthletic j , Common custom in
tTis country, makes its preparation one
of the servants duties. Jt, ttherefore,
tfomes to the table almost always black
twith'too much Strength and steeping,
. if perchance,
has not- boiled. It
a ' ' i '
, then has an hei by flavor, and no
men lias an ueroy iiavor, ana no xmjiy
lady, and you have the ingredients for
a cup of tea in which the possibilities
ex-jof aesthetic pleasure are only limited
j by the- sensibility . cf the recipient.
Take a tiny lump of sugar, if you please,
and even a thin slice of lemon, but do
not spoil the oxqusite flavor and wine
l.ke color by even a drop of milk or
cream. If iced tea isjdesired, pour the
freshly made tea into a glass in which
are lumps of ice and sugar. It is often
prepared and put away to stand in the
ice chest till raquired, ; but by this
nieans the delicate ' aroma of the tea
passes away, and there is a consequent
flatness perceptible to every one who
knows how to make and appreciate the
rightly made cup of tea. Boston Her

worth
little more than $2 1,000. Louis Bland
ing, than whom no man has had more
varied experience in, mining, says that
J. Jl Finney, "Old Virginia," found a
piece of gold about six miles from
Downieville, Sierra county, on the
21st day of August, 1857, that weighed
5009 ounces. ' The gold of that vicini
ty was- worth' $18 an ounce, which
would make. the .value; of the nugget
some $30,000,, This would maka the
Finney nugget the largest piece of pure
gold; ever discovered, so far as accounts

nugget found in the Ballarat gold fields
has jbeeu considered the largest. It
wasjvalued at something over$G0,060.

ZAX1 GRAXT,
- Senator Stanford, when interviewed
in San Francisco recently in regard to
the Oregon extension, said, among
other things: "The completion'of ' the
road depends entirely on the confif na
tion of the land grant.;. If the grant ia
declare,! forfeited, we will stop work on
the road for the excellent reason that
without the grant the' cost would ba
unjustifiable. We -, are 'forced " to de
pend upon that land grant. It makes
our bonds s'nlable. People have no idea,
what a costly piece of wrrk -he ioal
will le. There is hinch oiffc that will
cest $80,000 per raildf And that, to.
through a country wnich has 'no local
business worth considering. The land
srranted to.us is worthless without the
railroad, and as tlto cOrnnany .would le
slad to sell it to settlers" for less than
he Government rrice I don't she how
any settler wHlv be hurt by Congress

in cream colored satin with flower; of

A just conception of the. magnitude
of the newspaper business .. of . the
United States may be gained from
these figures: "The type used upon;
one issue weighs 6,700,000 pounds;
and would set up 2785 ordinary 12raa
books. The composition: done on the
dailies in one year , would fill 10,000
volumes of the size of Appleton'a Cy
clopedia, Twelve thousand presses
are requii ed for the press work, 1 and
the ppoof slips, pasted end to end,
would much more than cross the con
tinent.
