to be a boy in a store in those days from

to be up soon after light, walk to Vande-

from the ald pump at the earner of Peck

swept and dusted.
"Afterwards came sprinkling the
sidewalk and street, and sweeping to the
centre a heap for the dirt cart to remove.
This done, one of the older clerks would
come, and I was permitted to go home
for breakfast. In winter the wood was
to be carried ia and piled in the cellar,
fires were to be made, and lamps trim-

by lines of vessels along the coast. Over

Strange Wagers.
The London swells are the most invet-
erate betters in the world. Time hangs
so heavy on their hands that in the
excitement of uncertainty, they find a
grateful relief. A curious bet waa
made in one of the London Clubs, some
year 4' ago, that will perhaps point a
mord.
It was that a certain member could
not, within two hours, on London
Bridge, sell one hundred new guineas at
a penny apiece. The man took his
place an the bridge with a little tray, on
which he had the coins. informed
the passers-by that they were genuine
gold coins from the Bank of England,.
and that they were to be had at a penny
each. The cartmen ancl policemen
laughed at him. When the tittle had
expired, such is human incredulity, he
had sold but two, which a maid sere
vent bought to amuse her two little
cherges.
Auather peculiar bet made in London,
was by adwell known barrister, for
large • amount, that he would, at a cere
tam hour, block Fleet street in the busa
est part of the day, and at the narrowest
point.
HaIf an hour before the time appoint --

door. He was dressed like a necroman-
cer, with, a long cloak., and wearing e
tall, pointed hat, and large glasses over
hie eyes.
Under one arm he carried an enor-
mous book, and in his hand he held a
large telescope, which every few minutes
he pointed at the lion, after inspecting
theebook.
People gathered around, and he told
them that in the Beok of Bladerhash it
was written that ba half an hour that
lion would wag his tail. Slowly walking

Catarrh -a New Treatment.
Perhapsthe most extraordinary suecese that
has been aphieved le modern medieine has heen
attained by the Dixon Treatment for Catarrh.
Out of 2,040 patieete treated during the pad six
neonate, fully ninety per cent, have been cured
of this stubborn nselesie. This is none the less
startling when it ie remembered that no live per
cent. of petie 'e , reeentieg blieneselvee to the
regular p. teilt)oner are benefitted, while the
patent e 1. mee and other advertised cures
never ices , . am e at all. Starting with the
clainem e e: -ally believed by the moet scien-
tific inet, . ' the disease is due to the presence
of Evils,' p.1- - ses in the tissue, Mr. Dixon at
once accaptet _le (sure to their extermination-
ehis aceemplished, he claims the Catarrh is prae-
tically •-• and the permanency is unquestion-
td, as ce - r.sete-d by him four years ago are
cures stiii. No one else has ever attempted to
cure Catarrh III this manner, and no other treat
ment has ever cured Catarrh. The application
of the remedy is simple, and can be done at
home, and the present season of the year is the
moot favorable for a speedy and permanent cure,
the majority of casts being cured at one treat-
ment. Sufferers should correspond with Mews.
