The following anecdote illustrates the fact that the man who is asked to do an imusual thing will expect much more pay than for doing a usual thing that costa him several times the troubl. Solite years ago,• before the sale of game was legalized, and a present of it was thought worth the expense of crriage, an Englishman rented a moor within 20r. miles of Inverness. Wishing to send ten -brace box of grouse to his friends UT the South, he directed a servant to call sport Donald Fraser (who owned a horse and cart, and made a liyelihood by tiriving peats into the town), and asked kim what he would charge for taking the box to Inverness. Donald would not take it under eight shillings. The gemand was thought so unreasonable that the gentleman complained to a Scotchman who was shooting with him. The Seotchman replied that he (the Englishman) did not understand hour to bargain with the natives, and that one of them approached in the right way would do the • job for much less. Cal- ling Donald, he held the following con- versation: "Good morriin', Donaid ! What's the price o' peats the noo ?" "Juist auchteen pence the load, sir." "Very: weel, „ye can teak' a load into my hoose in Inverness the first thing the morn's mornixe." "Fil dae that, an' thank ye, sir."

What Becomes of the Dead Letters. A correspondent of the Philadelphia Reeord gives the following interesting account of the disposition made by the Dead Letter Office of part of its accumulations: "The gross receipts of undelivered mail matter last year were 4,751,872 oi. more than 8 per cent. increase over the previous year. Of course, the office manages, by its improved methods, to get muck of the matter either to the people who mailed it or to the people for whom it was intended. But there is a large amount that never gets any further than the city of Washington. Sotrie of the things are sold at auction every winter. The sale Of last year realized nearly $2,000. Over $7,000 in magazns pamphlets illustrated papers, • Christmas cards, valentines, etc., were Forcing Thera to Settle. disposed of in this way, so that even • "Inn a promoter of independence, sir, this I wind b ows somebody good.

At this crossing I had never seen a train at this time of the night, and so I rounded the curve out of the cut full tilt. I was astonished to see the target set against me, though I had time enough to stop. But it was down grade there, and the track was very slippery, and to add to the clanger my air brakes didn't work right. I whistled sharply to have the target set clear forme, but on look - in g Isaw that a freight train was stand the least ruffled. A reporter overtook him on the street. -j mg right over the crossing, evidently in - "From whom do you get these bills ?" tending to put a few cars on our switch. He glanced at it, reachedin his pocket, drew forth a pocket -book, and handed several bills over to the collector. Then ke ordered that individual to leave his office and turned about to his desk. The scene occurred in a well-known commission man's office. The collector smilingly departed. During all the ex- citement of the debtor he had stood his ground manfully, and did not seem in asked the reporter. "Almost everybody. From the doc- tors, the dentists, the grocers, the dry goods dealers; in fact, from all classes of men. You see, they attempt to col- lect them and find it unprofitable. After being put off se-v-eral time i and making a dozen trips, only to not find him at home, the owner of the bill comes to me and is glad to realize one-half, which is generally my fee for collecting. As goon as I look at the bill I almost al- ways know how much work there is in it for me. And then I know so many men who are bad pay that I often get a bill and -knew just how to collect it. You see, there are different trieka in the trade,and a man has to know what is the proper one to work. For instance, this old fellow I just left is intensely proud, and is anxious to be thought richer than he is. r knew at once if I threatened to stand before his door with a bill in my hand it weuld touch a ten der spot, and, you see, the money came very easily. It's like hulling chestnuts. If you get at 'em too early you are sure to get your fmgers full of pricklers ; •but let the frost get its work in and the nuts dropout themselves." What are the attributes of a good collector ?". " Sagacity, self-assurance and a know- ledge of human nature. Without the latter you are no good on earth. Now, if I had approached, some men the way I did that one, I would have been kicked out of the office and got laughed at for threatening to stand outside until he: paid me. With some you must act the gentleman, with others the bully; some you can scare out di a bill, while others you must coax or work it out through strategy. The hardest men to collect from are those who have plenty and can afford to fight you in the courts; the easiest are those engaged on salaries, who- are afraid of losing • their places. The one can and will not; the other is willing but can not; and the latter often atints himself and strains every nerve to pay up. It is strange what poor economists some persons are." "Is there any class of bills harder to collect than others?" Yes, indeed. The man who ctwes a whisky Jell is a holy terror to collect from. Nat come the doctor bills, and the tobacco bills. Livery bills are also slow ones. Sometimes when we find a person working on a salary who treats U8 shabbily, or whose employer does, we garnishee his wages. doing it through some Justice in a distant'. OA of the county.. The young man gets as scared as his employer gets savage, and the bill is paid. There are hundreds of little trieks, though, and all of them more or less good,toaid in collecting a bill. I remember a young ' man who was cashier of a hank, yet he was a dead I wish I could tell you what my thoughts were at this time. I gave the danger whistle, and tried to stopmy train, but I had seven heavy sleepers on and we just slid down that grade spite of everything I cbuld do_ Notv comes the surprising part of my Story. Quick- er than I clin tell you, the brakeman on that freight train uncoupled a car just back of our crossing and signalled his engineer to go ahead, which he did sharply, but barely in time to let us through. In fact, the pilot of my en- gine took the buffer off that rear car. Through that little hole w9 slipped, and lives and property were saved. Now, that brakeman was only a common rail- roader, yet he saw that situation at a glance. There wasn't time to run his whole train off the crossing, nor even half of it—barely time to pnll one car - length by prompt, quick work. He kept his wits about him as I venture to say not one in a thousand would have done, and saved my reputation, if not my life. He is now a division superintendent on one of the best roads in this country; and maygood luck go with him. • — A Home Atmosphere. Balza,c, that close and keen observer, somewhere says, "You may judge of a, woman by the vestibule of her house." This matter of atmosphere is a great matter. If every individual has per- vading and surrounding him an atmos- phere appropriate and 'peculiar to him- self, much more is this true of every home. That iinpalpable something which every one feels but no one sees, that assimilating element, to which we yield as a matter of course, which we breathe, and which becomes a force in our life so long as we are in it—every home has this. There are certain elements which are essential to a pure and happy home at- mosphere. The first is law. Without law, order, duty, subjection, a home is no more possible than a nation. Horne life means united life. And law is one of the strongest of uniting, • binding forces. Law in home life need not be loudly -pro- claimed. Nature does not advertise her • laws on the faces of the rocks. Yet how unfailing they are. There must be • obedience in home life, the yielding of one will to another, the yielding of each will in some degree to each other. There must be the ordedy working of forces. Again, there must be liberty in the home. Brit • remember, there must be liberty not only for one but for every member of the household. Take the full benefit of the home comforts. Al- low some freedom in the disposition of little things, of fragments of time. " Everything in its place," " everything in its time," are good mottoes; but don't have too many places, too many time's. Don't iltig the bell every fifteen minutes to tell the servants what to do next. Forgive Paterfamilias if he • throws his whiskbroom in the bureau, and forgets to use that ingeniously vex atious embroidered holder. Oh, forgive the boys if they come tramping in with their thick boots over the best carpet If you must have -a tall jar standing on the floor, perhaps you need not place it in the rut' Iciest postible situation. Let • the dictionary and encyclopedia lie open; if they are bulky and far from orna- mental. Let the study door stand open sometimes, gentle sir! and let the chil- dren tumble about atnong the books. In short, let not that atmosphere of • squareness and pettiness get into your, pretty, happy home.. A third element that is necessary to • a healthy home atmosphere is something which is not easily set before us in one word. Outflow and influx, interchange with other homes, ventilation—these things are essential. The air of your •home will surely lose vitality if you shut it up to itself. 'The family whose prayer is, Bless ma and my wife, my sonHans and his wife, us four and no more," is not a happy nor a healthy family. Social life, with its opportunities for love and forgivness, for delicate con- sideration of • others and setting aside of self, iS a moral force that ought not to be lacking in the home. The children are gainers in many wkys in the home when hospitality is frequent and free. Open the door of your home to others, and lend yourself sometimes to other homes. It will do no harm to the best housekeeper to see occasionally howother people do things. The wife is never lovelier in her husbands eye than when he hasibeen in the society of • other women, and discovered how hum- drum and uninteresting- they are. The husband is nevei more admired by his wife than when she compares him with other men. "Your -papa and mamma are very nice," says wee Dais, politely, after a visit, "but you mnst come to • my house and see my papa and mam- ma." Catarrh—a New Treatment. • Perhaps the most extraordinary success that has been achieved in modern medicine has been attained by the Dixon Treatment for Catarrh. Out of 2,000 patients treated during the past six months, hilly ninety per cent, have been -cured of this stubborn maltri y. This is none the less startling when it is r membered that no five per cent. of patients prsenting themselves to the regular practitioner are benetitted, while the patent medicines and other advertised cures never record a mire at all. Starting- with the claim now generally believed by the most scien- tific men that the disease is due to the presence of living parasites in the tissue, Mr. Dixon at once adapted his cure to their extermination— ehis accomplished, he claims the Catarrh is prac- tically cured, and the permanency is unquestion- td, as cures effected by him four years ago are cures still. No one else - has ever attempted to cure Catarrh -in this manner, and no other treat! ment has ever oured Catarrh. The application of the remedy is simple, and can be done at home, andthe present season of the year is the moat favorable for, a ispeedy and permanent cure, the majority of cake being ourerl at one treat- ment. Sufferers should correspond with Messrs. A. H. DIXON & SON, 305 King Street, West, Toronto, Canada, and encloile stamp for their treatise on Catarrh.—Montreal Star, November 17. 1882 882-52 MEI)ICAL.
