Tho following, from an unknown source, contains adrice which ex perienced business men endorse and young men will do well to follew: Hare but one business, know it thoroughly, and attend personally to its minutest details. Be self reliant, concentrate your energies in a determination and supieme effort to conquer success. Keep your own counsel, attend strictly to business, and never dabble in anything foreign to it, curtail your expenses, never sacrifice safety to prospective largo returns, cut short your losses and let your prof its run on, and make your prime movers industry, economy and fair dealing. It is the merest rant and bush to tely on Luck. He is al ways indolent and whining, fold ing his arms, drinking and smok ing, waiting for big prizes in lot teries, or lyiug abed expecting a letter with news of a legacy. On the contrary, Labor and Pluck are are the invincible heroes to con quer success; they strike out new paths, create, contrive, think, plan, originate, take all legitimate risks, toil to surmount obstacles, push forward, win renown by success. The glorious galaxy of successful business men and illustrious au thors have all been hard workers. Shun bad company and the preva lent vices of the day, never loan a borrowing friend more than you arc able to lose if he cannot pay, and never tako a loan on impor tunity. Never borrow money to speculate with. Acquire knowl edge. It is only enlightened mm who successfully hold their own with the surging masses who throng the road to riches. Avoid law and legal squables of every kind. In discussing business dis agreements, keep cool. Make all the money you can and do all the good you can with it, remember ing that he who lives for himself alone lives for the meanest man in creation. If engaged in public business, advertise it; be punctual in meeting promised payments; keep short accounts; settle often; he clear and explicit in making bargains. Be civil and obliging as well as decisive and prompt with customers, and do not over trade your capital. Finally, in the maturity of life, don't rust out by retiring from business; keep bright by useful effort, remembering that industry and happiness are insep arable. Doctors' Bills.

Tklkorapo, Dubuque, Iowa. Over 500,000 acres of public land were entered in the state of Alabama last year, and the gov ernment got more than $300,000 for it. They wero mostly long neglected mineral and timber lands, the value of which is now becoming better appreciated, and the bulk of them were purchased by companies or syndicates.

A SLEEPING OAE EPISODE. Bill Nye: On board a sleeping car at a lato hour the other eve ning going south from "Washing ton, an odd thing occurred, as such things are apt to, especially on board a sleeping car. Most of the berths were made up for the night and the birth marks attached to them by the porter so that unscru pulous people would not get into the erroneous berth. A party of us, however, sat in a section on one side of the car waiting for our turn to come when the porter would drive us out and make our beds. All at once, on the opposite side of the car, a slender loot and ankle clothed only in a lisle thread stock ing and pink garter shot out from between the curtains as we round ed a curve. Fearing that another lurch might throw the proprietor of said limb clear out of the berth, I looked out of the window for some little time, but looked hack again directly, hoping yet fearing. You cannot understand how the silence fell upon us. We broke off in the middle of a story and no one spoke. The road was very rough and we all waited for an other violent lurch of the train. Evidently the owner of the limb was asleep, for we could hear a regular breathing in that berth which indicated slumber. It was a trying time. I claimed that something ought to be done, and spoke to the conductor about it, but he said he didu'tthink it de served the large attention it was receiving. But a middle-aged lady took the matter in hand on behalf of her sex. Men on the car had quit leading and playing card-, and were more wakeful than they were before. So she'slipped across the aisle silently and t juched the ex tended foot very gently, but it didn't recoil. Then sho took hold of it with the idea of replacing it inside the curtains, I presume. Anyway, at that moment the car Hive a wild twist, which jarred the teeth in my head and knocked everybody off his or her pins, as the case might bo. It threw stran gets together in a friendly way and mixed up people so that the porter had to come and identify them by their birth checks and strawberry marks. It was at this moment the middle aged and kind hearted woman, whose name I did not know, sat down in my lap, and in her band she held a beautiful cork leg, with the straps of which sho involuntarily welted me over the hoad.
