GENERAL m % Beautiful Incident. • poor Arab traveling in the desert toet wtth a spring of clear, sweet, sparkling water. Used as he was only to brackish wells, such water as this Appeared to his simple mind worthy of m monarch, and, filling his leather bot­ tle from the spring, he determined to go and present it to the caliph himself. The poor man traveled a long way be. fore he reached the presence of *iis sov­ ereign and laid his humble offering at Ms feet. The caliph did not despise tbe little fclft, brought to him with so much trouble. He ordered some of the water to be poured into a cup, drank It. and, thanking the Arab with a smile, order­ ed him to be presented with a reward. The courtiers around pressed forward, eager to taste of the wonderful water; but, to tbe surprise of all, the caliph iOrbade them to toacli a single drop. . After the poor Arab had quirted the royal presence with a light and joyful heart, thecal ipb turned to his courtiers and thus explained his conduct: "Dur­ ing the travels of'the Arab," said he, "the water in his leathern bottle be­ came impure and distasteful. But it was an offering of love, and as such 1 bave received It with pleasure. But I well knew that had I suffered another to partake of it, lie would not have concealed his disgust; and therefore I forbade you to touch the draught, lest the heart *.f she pqor a;ar. sbcald have beeu wounded."

There are only three Corroders in St. Louis, (that is tnose who manufacture White Lead from the metal, )namely: "SOUTHERN WHITE LEAD CO.," "COLLIER WmTE LEAD & OIL CO.," and "ST. LOUIS LEAD & OIL CO.," and their White Lead is always Strictly Pure. In consequence of the very general reputation of theee corroders for the excellence of quality of their product, their "brands have been imi­ tated to a considerable extent by those desirous of taking advantage, of tbtir good name out who are not manufacturers of White Lead. e The word "St. Louis" is frequently used on kegs similar in appearance to those of the ^ Louis corroders, the contents of which are not made in St/Louis and are very badly adulterated. W° therefore warn the public against these adulterated mixtures, and when buying Lead, to see that the kegs bear one of the three brands whose fac-smiles are given above. FLOUTBB&Y *WSITB 1JAB00 ST.
