All wo uhIc in a comparison a perusal of our columns and those of
other county .criodicals. If then you deem it worthy of your patronage,
hftll bo pleased to hamlle it. Remember, our policy is strictly cash-in-ad-vantr,
and discontinuance on expiration of subscription. The cash plan is
the only satisfactory one. No publisher has a right to run a man in debt
against his own will, and on the other hand lie is entitled to his pay. The
each plan has been eminently successful with us, and our list has grown
from the day f its installation as a part of ottr business methods. Now
adays a man doesn't want a paper about hint which will run along for years
and then semis bills for several dollars back subscriptions in other words
for a paper you can't stop.

Buttons Grow on Bushes.
The ivory buttons you wear do
not present the death of an elephant

buttons were probably never nearer
than you took tbe m to the ehell of
a bivalve mollnsk, and the prob
abilities are that no rubber tree
was ever tapped to produce the
hard rubber buttoms that adorn
your overwat. Down in Central
America there is a :ruit producing
palm that has quite metamorphosed
the button business that formed
the nucleus for one of the most im
portant industries in the United
st-toa The seed of this fruit con
tains a milk that is sweet to the
taste and relished by the natives,
Thus the probabilities are that our
buttons are made of a vegetable
milk, and they grow on the bushes.
Ths ivory plant is one of the
marvels of the age and is reward
ing its growers with vast fortunes.
Tho nuts are brought to the United
States by the ship load and hauled
act og the continent to the big
button factories, from which they
issue forth in every conceivable
desig, cohy, grade and classifica
tion of buttons. ' s
The ivory plant has recently
been discovered in California, but
the nut it produces in its wild state
isofinferor quality and will not
make eood bu'tons. It is believed
though, that with the proper cul
tivation the fruit would be as valu
able as the Central America. If so
the growing of buttons in America
will become an industry of impor
tance ceround only to the growing ot
corn, wheat and cotton, for every
body wears buttons. Popular Me

by the many different species of
hemipterous insects that infest our

various remedies are not without
their merits, and while we are
willing to extol their virtues in
laudable eulogies, we would like to
offer for inspection, this original

Those who have attended the big
banquets at Delmonico's, such, for
instance, as the one given to Cyrus
Field upon the completion of the
Atlantic Cable, atd which cost $50
a plate, had the privilege of smok
ing the choicest Havana cigars,
costing, perhaps, 50 cents each.
But what would the dinner cost
with cigars at 14 apiece? Yet there
are such cigars being made in
Havana today, and some, have ar
rived at New York. Francitco E.
