* The Krtmi Whf. We call it Alabastine, as it is mannfac tut ed from alabaster rock. The people use it because it is durable an>l beautiful. The sanitarians endoree it because it is of a sanitary nature, and contains no poisonous naterial. Wo advertise it as we want all to have an opportunity to be benefited by its advantages. W all paper firms fight it, as it displaces their poisonous products. Some dealers talk against it, as they can buy cheap kalsomines, and where the people are not |>osted, sell at Alabastine prices, thus making more profit. Kalsomines must go, as they are only temporary and spoil the walla Alabastine has come to stay, as it possesses merit, and has the unqualified endorsement of those who have used It for years. Alabastine has stood the test of time, and now stands higher in public favor than ever before. Frot. Kedtie, the eminent sanitarian of Michigau, says: "Have carefullv tested for arsenic or copper, none could be found. Find no traces of poisonous or injurious material Dr. Do Wolfe, the health officer of Chicago, says. " I'he perfect wall for domestic habitation Is the material which resists decomposition in ( very form. It seemes to me that Alabastine is admirably adapted to the purpo-e."

The one exception mentioned was looking at the matter from . the standpoint of love, which knows no ( presumption. Best of all, Annie herself did not think it presumptuous,and would not let James say so. He had long ago f told her his love, and she ha l blush- , ingly confessc 1 her joy and her reciprocation. It is needless to tell ho.v it be- { gan, for it is the old, old story. In a j word, though, it sprang from a dinner her father ha I given to his clerks, at c which she" had preside 1 w ith a grace and charm irresistible to the voting mar. a Now the only thing between him and k happiness was tjie father's consent. c "When will you ask him, James?*' she e inquired, aa they sat m her parlor con g sidering the subject. ? ller maimer und look as she asked hint brought to his face a look of dc- a termination wnie i instantly c.ille I a I- j miration to her own.

It was no easy matter to approach the matter-of-fact merchant, whose free lorn o! speaking his mind was well known j even upon a question of business, but , upon this particular subject he was tor- ( midable, sitting by a tnble peacefully t reading the evening paper; his thought; leagues away from sued an uncomniun place airair as love. ^ lie looked up annoyed as Ilnrvey weni ia, dropping the paper and revealing hit ( strong face and Ins steady eyes fixed in "juiringiy upon him. The young lover was tempted to j change his errand to one of a business nature, but a thought of Annie's disap ( pointmeni decided him, and he said, taking the chair indicate I by the old ; gentleman: , "Mr. Kiriand, I have come to ask you | foi Annie." The steady eyes grew even steadier, the strong face stronger, and tire precise ! lips were drawn in a moment before he said "Very well, wt will have a plain, fret talk over the matter. Put your.-elf at ' ea?e, is it we were discussing a business question. What do you want my daugh ' ter for*" _ ^ "For my wife." "Urn, your wife.

"Tnat may be so." t "Ho, then, as a matter of pure business policy, you think it is a wise move to marry." 36k s "So far as love can b$:treduced to business priu^les; I amwefcyes."

He studied a moment iml continued: "Atld do?* Aurile think this is A gOdd nisidftss mote? " "Sir. Rtrland, you can hardly expect Vnnie to regard this matter in a business igbt. It is a mutter of heart with a vornao. not business.'' "True, true," was the inusibg assent. Then, looking up quickly as if a decision lad been reached, he Continued: "Wbll, Mr. Harvey, we must have irne to consider this matter, say two veeks. If I were going to place a sum >f money into some one's hands, I would isturally be careful about the man. ou'll admit that. Now how much lore careful should I be of a daughter?

Three days later a man came to the ailing near Harvey's dusk. He recogtized him as John Clawson.a well-known >ustness man of the city who had fornerly been numbered among the concrvative, but whoso recent actions bowed drifting toward the more progressive methods of the times. "Mr. Harvey," he said, "I havo tever had the pleasure of knowing you, >ut I wish to have a private interview vith you. When can you arrange 4t?" "I hardly know*" the book-keeper eplicd) putting ddvt'd his pen ; ''unless re say during the noon hour at Little /Orner restaurant;" "That will suit me very well." Arriving at the restaurant, Harvey saw Mawson beckoning to hira from a table rhich was secluded in a far corner. Lftcr ordering lunch, the merchant tegan: "You aro surprised, no doubt, so 1*11 elieve your natural curiosity at once. To be brief, you have been recommended o me as tho very ouri for a?1 dislike be word 'scheme,' but it has come into onimoh business use, so [ use it. There s to be a new company formed for a oinewhnt new lino of business. Briefly; he object is to find Uiit biisiridss coderns here id the city drhich are in dauger >f bankruptcy. The company Will take iharge of them; upon certain conditions, tut money intd them; and place them ipori their feet again. Some of tho coniitions, of course, will be a good rate of nterest on loans, and after the concern s out of distress, an interest in the busiless for a given number of years. All hesc details have not yet been decided, iut they soon will be. Now, of course, <ceu judgment is required to decide srhat tirms, now in trouble, are likely to succeed when relieved, and also, superior :act iu approaching tne parties and making the agreements. In shoft, Mr. Harvey, you have been recommended as possessing the necessary judgment and tact." "Who are iri it* " Harvey asked. "Wcllj myself} Smart; ori Twelfth street; Troxley} of Grand street} and 'everal others, all capitalists." "Very good names, I'm sure," said he bookkeeper. "Is Mr. Kirland in t? " Clawson shrugged his shoulders criti ally, and replied* "Oh! no. He would 1't go into such t scheme; he's one of the old fogies, you mow?with all due respect to you as sne of his employes. Too conservative mtirely. He'll go on plodding in the Mine old lilt till he dies?nwav behind lie times." "Mr. Clawsdn," said Harvey, with omc spirit, "he may be slow and fogy, nit he is making money." "Oh, certainly he is. I don't expect lie new company will ever take old Kirand in hand for repairs; but, you see, le might be making more by inoro nodern methods." "Yes, or losing what he has." Clawson smilel as he repliel: "True, there's always some risk, and [ see, without flattering you. Mr. Harvey, that you have the foresight and Motions shro.vdness you were reco.nnended for. Now, something about the illcr. It is the intention to make you general manager at a salary far above vhat you get over in that old rut, and In i year or two you'll be made one of the ompany. Hut our time's up. Think >ver it; but I can't help saying it is a are chauce for a young man to feather lis ne3t." They parted, and Harvey was left to a Probably it was better to hoi I to what 10 bad, than take the risk of the new iroject being successful; an I there was isk, for it was visionary beyond all loubt. He hadn't like J some of Clawson's exircssions, "feather his nest," etc.; they mackedof the slang of schemers; and in larticular, he objected to the criticism ?f Kirland. The merchant was slow and Ireadfully cautious, but the money w*1 oiling in from customers, who placed lerfect conttdence in the "old fogy." Tut, on the other hand, if every one would follow that old adage there would ?e no advancement; in fact, the world would stand still. Thinking the matter over carefully,he in illy decide I that his best eourse war o oandidly tell Mr. Kirland of the |iro??sal an I get his advice. 8r> once m ire le walke I into the library and again was Tnost turned from his purpote by the pposranee of the stern, interrogative ace over the newspaper. "The two weeks are not up yet," boran the old gentleman, with a sign ol inpatient-. ]ut*sno:i 01 juugmem. smitten promises >f advancement, however dazzling, unsettle one, and the bookkeeper hnlf wished he did not have it to decide. But it was Mattering. It was no small itfair for a young man to be sought by such men as Clawson and Smart and Froxley. Perhaps this was the chance of his life. But what would Mr. Kirland >ay to his leavirgf lie felt sure, how?ver, that the old merchant was too sensible to stand in the way of a young nan's advancement. Then, too, bis being prolered su:h a >lnce might increase his importance in he old father's eyes and m ike hi;n moro villing to give him the daughter, 'rominence was as attractive to Kirlnnd is to any one. lie never forgot his own tievation, and allowed none of his emsloyes to forget it. Harvey had often elt that the old gentlemvi believed that se was condescending to speik to him. dere was a chance to show him how he Wits renamed l?y others. But there was the old adage?"a bird n tlm llllnft II ivnrlh tnf.i in lkn U..A <? "I know it," Harrey replied, ,4but I have ttot conlS td talk of that, although my decision would no ? be precisely what | it will be then." He then explainod in detail the offer, and finished by asking the old merchant's opinion. He pulled his under lif thoughtfully a few minutes before replyings "Well, Mr. llarvey, I would be sorry to lose yon, but I have always made it a ' rule not to stand in a young man's way, and if to J think this a good chance, ) will willingly let you go." "Irot do you think it a good opening for met" "Mr. Harvey, you mutt decide this question yourself. A man shows his worth principally by his judgment: Tnid is an important, I may say d critical question, and your owu uninfluenced decision will be worth a tbousncd times more than one made from advice. Good, , reliable tnatihood is built upon the decisiod of such questions." Again he picked up his paper aud i again Harvey withdrew, knowing no more than before, except that hirland Would riot staud in his way. What should he dot His inclination was to stay witt Kirland, because a man who was to be come a son-in-law, would surely be mud'.' ? partner; but on the other hand, did that show independence? Wouldn't tho old merchant think more of him if he 'auacbed out for himself? If he rejected tha offer, K'rland might .hink him too timid to meet tho responsibility aud therefore too timid to have the cure of his daughter. ThVoext day came a note from Claw boa inforniidg hiai thdt Hd must decidd by a certain day, which, oddly, was fio < next following the dight when Mr; Kir- J land was to reader his decision. , That important evening ca-ne, and i ;ain Harvey interrupted the old gontle- 1 man's reading. But he looked up this ( time without impatience, motioned \ pleasantly to a chair, and, when the ] young man was seated, asked: "Mr.- Hurvcv, we'll dispose ot lesser business makers first. I, of course, an | interested in your new project, because if you go, I must get a new bookkeeper; although," he said, with a slight hesitation; "I have taken it lor granted thdt you would accept this flatteriug offer, and I hrtre already engaged a man in J-oilf place;" 41You have?" said Harvey in supfise. "Yes, wasn't it right? I didn't supne for a moment you would reject such Battering offer. Most young meo would be dazzled by the compliment and the prospects of such a position, so I argued that you couldn't resist the u." "Well, sir," replied Harvey in some confusion, "you have misjudged me. The offer was dazzling, hut f decided to remain with your old established business instead of risking my future on what looks to me very much like a visionary scheme." The old merchant smiled a little, and withoiit ancthCr wofd reached bver and tapped a little silver bell; Its ririg was lnst-Jtitly mingled with rapid footsteps and the rustle of a dress; and Antiic hurried id. Hatvey rose, and coiild ndt repress nu exclamation of admiration at her beauty rtntf the eagernoss of her face. "Annie," said the old gentleman; "you have ha I a question to decide ? betwecu me, your own father, and this young gentleman who says he wants you to be his wife." "Father," tshe replied, "I don't love you any less?" "Oh! I see,"' he said with a smile, "you choaso tho young mau. Very well; it's the way of tho world; Take her, Mr. Iiarvey, she is yours." The youug man was too stunned by tho abruptness of the decision to walk to her, but she was not long reaching his side. "Yes, Jlr. Iiarvey, you cannrit be my i bookkeeper any longer. You and I will have some partnership matters to arrange soon. And by the way, if you see any coincidence between the answer you were 1 to give to-morrow and my decision to- ' night, very well. I doubt very much if ' you will Hnd any of the project left to- ' morrow. Now go back to the parlor, young folks, and make your own partner- 1 ship agreements." ' "Do you mean, Mr. Kirland," said Harvey hesitatiugly, "that that flattering offer was only a test?" ( "Well I don't know as I said so," the < old gentleman replied, with a smile that , nlmost said so, "but I am fully satisfied | you will take good care of my daughter." ?Yankee Blade. Tliey Conquered the Moh. During the agrariau riots, which disturbed England in 1832, a mob of rickburners and machine-breakers appeared at the old mansion of two elderly maiden ladies. The walls of the hall were decorated with suits of armor and autique weapons?pikes, halberds, swords and battle-axes. The mob clamored for the weapons and for drink. The ladles refused their Heninnds iinft when the mnli seemed ready to resort to violeuce, Mm Betty, the elder of the ladies, went up to the leader, h hideous-looking mat), ' and said "Yen, too, of all the people { in the world I 1 in not surprised at these , poor miguided creatures.

Home Idea of the present wonderful growth of the typewriter business may be gained from the fact that the sales of Kemngtontypewriters for January and Febru?ry. 1892, exceeded those of the corresponding months of 1891 by fl(V),000.
