Watch closely your transactions at tne store, mis mine canon n "running account" is a very la .inq in affair; and farmers who Wcty . running account are apt to over run the amount they take in, and at settling up they find themselves considerably behind, or indebted to the merchant, when they per haps are solacing themselves that they were at least even, if not something to their credit. There are two reasons for this mistake, one being that no account is kept by the farmer; he takes butter, eggs, etc., to the merchant who fills whatever order for goods the farmer wants, charges him for the tame, aud then allows him for his produce just whatever he, the merchant, deems them worth. The farmer picks up his boxes and baskets, and drives home, gener ally without knowing the debit and credit of the transaction. Again, when most people have credit, they often buy compara tively useless articles, or else things that could have been dis pensed with, at least for awhile, and no one will look as closely to the kind or qualitv of what he buys, or be so particular about the- price, as wheu the cash is to be counted down. And another im portant thing about it is, mer chants, aud especially country merchants, like the cash; true, we all do, for that matter, but when a cash man comes into the store, he has better goods offered him at less prices, and often a moderate discount is made on the bill by the merchant, all of which makes a saving to the cash buyer. The moral then to be drawn from this, so to express it, is either to keep an account of all your dealings, both buying and selling, or sell and buy on the cash system strictly. Ex. The real thoughtful wife is now in a quandary whether to ask her husband to buy her a sealskin cloak or a ton of coal. Ayer's Sarsaparilla braces up the system; purifies and invigor ates. Invalids need it. There are said to be more mill ionaires in Buenos Ayres tharmfi any other city of its size in the world. THIS ! ! BECK The Eeturn of the "Wateis.8 A recent phenomenon in central Illinois puzzles scientific aud oth er people. After weeks of drought, the streams and wells becoming exhausted, abundant water sud denly appeared, without rain or other visible source of supply. "Water flowed freely in the streams, and even the shallowest wells were replenished. "Where this water came from and the cause of its sudden appearance are mysteries which no man can find out. Some religious people believe it was an answer to prayer. It is probable that the effect was produced by a subterranean disturbance similar to that of an earthquake shock. Ghicayo Journal.
