A NOVEL way of advertising wares in vogue by western merchants and which is lately causing much annoyance is the attaching of stickers to silver dollars.

First the white paper is cut into sheets large enough for a hundred stamps. The stamps on each sheet are counted twenty-six times to make sure the number is correct. The printer counts and passes the sheet to the summer, the gummer gums the back and having counted it gives it to the per­ forator. who divides the stamp by rows of little holes, not forgetting to count. It is surprising how qufckly and accur­ ately the hands can work. Seven hun­ dred millions of postage stamps are made every year. oar * > PEKBOHAX* PBOF. GRIUBS, of Nenda, «a*';I^ Ash­ ing this week.

The Fourth at Richmond MAN'S life is a game of cards, explains an exchange. First it is "eribbage." Next he tries "to go it alone" in a sort of "cut, shuffle and deal " pace Then he "raises tlie duce" while his mother "takes a hand in," aud, contrary to Hoyle, "beats the little joker with her five." Then with his "diamonds" he wins the "queen of hearts." Tired of playing a "lone hand".he expresses a desire to "assist" his fair "partner," "throws out his cards" and his clergy­ man takes a $ 10 bill out of him for a "pair." She "orders him up "to build the fires. Like a "knave" he joins the "clubs," where he often gets "higher," which is "low," to. If he keeps "straight" he is sometimes "flush." He grows old and "bluff," sees a "deal" of trouble, when he at last "shuffles" off his mortal coil and " passes in his checks" and he is " raked in by a spade." Life's game is ended and he waits the summons of Gabriel's " trump," which shall "order him up." Seal Eitktt Truuftrs. Recorded up to and including Jam 17.

A mighty contest has been going on all over the broad State of Illinois during the past four weeks,--a contest of which thegreatmass of the people are ignorant, and y^t w*»re the contest uncertain, it would effect every one of these same people. The mighty battle alluded to, was in getting the corn planted, and replanted, and then commenced the slaughter of weeds and grass, with modern machinery, more potent for good than ten thousand Sampsons, with all the jawbones of all the asses, from Sampson 1st until now. Wonderful Jerusalem JERUSALEM! What a world of thought is awakened by a single word spoken. Jerusalem--the loved, the hated, the idolized, the depised; destroyed and rebuilded again and again; thesceDeof the Savior's triumph and tragic death. The cradle of the Christian faith; the in­ spiration of humanity. How wonderful is thy history! What a theme for the poet and the painter. Every hill and valley so rich in tender associations, the very nerve center of religious history. Fortunately the ancient city and all the Surrounding country has been repro duced by the painters' art in a great Cy- clorama, showing the city in its glory under Herod, and at the time of the Crucifixion of the Savior. The view up­ on Calvary is a triumph of religious con­ ception and artistic painting. The whole scene is bathed in a wei rd twilight atmosphere that adds greatly to the in­ tense realism of the whole. In connection with this great Cyclorama is the famous painting, Christ's Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem. These two superb historic works are on exhibition at the corner of Wabash Ave. and Hubbard Court, Chi­ cago, just two blocks south of the Audi­ torium. No advance of price, we are in­ formed, will be made during the World's Fair and one ticket admits to both exhi­ bitions. Intending visitors to Chicago shvMil'l make a note of them. I THE editor of a weekly journul tells the Boston Traveler he lately lost two of his subscribers through accidentally depart­ ing from his beaten track in hi|.ariiwers to correspondents. Two of his subscrib­ ers wrote to ask him his remedy for their respective troubles. So. 1, a happy father of twins, wrote to inquire the best way to get them safely over their teething, and No. 2 wanted to know how to pro­ tect his orchard from the myriads of grasshoppers. The editor framed his answers upon the orthodox lines, but unfortunately transposed their two names, with the result that No. 1, who was blessed with twins, read, in reply to his query, "Cover them carefully with straw and set fire to them, and the little pests, after jumping about in the flames a few minutes, will speedily be settled." While No. 2, plagued with grasshoppers, was told to " Give a little castor .oil, and rub their gums gently with a bone ring." Special 4th of July Sale in Clothing at Evanson's. INDEPENDENCE PARTY.

Business Notices. A Great Fish. There was landed recently dt Strom- ness, Orkney, a halibut of extraordinary dimensions, measuring 6 feet 10 inches in length and weighing no less than 245 pounds. The fish was discovered by two lads who were engaged in hauling lob­ ster creels at the back of the Holms, a distance of about 11 miles from Strom- ness pier. It was observed on the sand apparently asleep, and as they had no appliances with them with which to at­ tempt a capture they marked the spot and returned home to acquaint their father. ^ Armed with a kind of harpoon, to which a line was attached, they went back to the-place and found the huge fish had not moved. Carefully watch­ ing an opportunity, the father succeed­ ed in planting the harpoon in the back libut. The weapon entered the DA flic XJ.il spine and rendered the fish powerless, but on account of it size and weight it was only after considerable difficulty that it was got on board. It proved a splendid specimen of the- halibut and was in a first rate condition. In its stomach was found a variety of small fish, which weighed upward of six pounds. It was at once carefully packed and dispatched by steamer and rail to the London market.--London Field. Free to Home Seekers.
