UNCEREMONIOUS.
As the end of the Civil War drew near,
the South found itself in some straits for
food and other necessaries. The biographer
of H. \V. Allen, who was then Governor
of Louisiana, describes the dependence
of the people upon him. and his unceasing
efforts to keep them from starvation.
A friend stepped into Allen's office at
Shreveport, and found the governor seated
before the fire, between two countrywomen?soldiers'
mothers?all three taking
a comfortable smoke with their pipes.
Allen was too courteous a gentleman not
to conform immediately to the custom of
"ladies." So, as he rather enjoyed a pipe,
he would join them very socially.
His companions had a triple claim upon
him?they were women, soldiers' mothers
and Louisianians.
"Well, governor," said one of his callers,
"we come to bother you again ; you are
such a friend to us poor women. Now,
governor, we got the corn you sent us, but
we ain't got no hoes and no plows to plant
with."
The governor took his pipe from his
mouth, and turning to his secretary said:
"Mr. Halsey, give these ladies an order
for a plough and two hoes, free of charge."
"But, governor," they continued, "we
want some ineal and some meat and some
sugar anu some molasses."
"Mr. Halsey, give the order for these
articles."
The women received theorders, knocked
the ashes from their pipes, shook hands
with Allen, and started out of the door;
but halting at the door said:
"Well, governor, we hate to bother you
so much. You are the best man alive.
We are all going to name our next grandchildren
after you; but we forgot, we
want a well-rope and a?pig.
"Ladies," said the governor, kindly, but
with a perceptible smile curling round the
corners of his mouth, "you shall have the
well-rope, but at present we are out of
pigs."
WHY HE GAVE,UP TUE LAW.
VSenatdr Cullom tells a good story?and
ttdt being given to practice law much
himself, I suppose he can afford to do so?
of a prosperous storekeeper in a small
Illinois town, the name of which has escaped
me, who once practised law, but
who has long since abandoned it. Being
met by an old acquaintance, he was asked
for all the particulars of his giving up the
profession.
"Didn't it agree with your health?"
"0 yes," answered "Uncle Joe," as he
was familiarly called by his friends.
"Didn't it pay ?"
"First-rate."
"Meet with sufficient favor from the
courts?"
"All 1 could ask."
"Then what was it compelled you to
U OJ9
"Well, I'll tell you?I was too honest."
A loud laugh from the bystanders
aroused "Uncle Joe" into earnestness, and
he repeated the strange statement, and
nailed it to his shop-counter with his huge
fist. But his cross questioner went on:
"When did you find this out?"
"In my very last case."
"What was that?"
"One in which I was retained to prosecute
a neighbor for killing a dog."
"And he was acquitted? So you lost
the case, and gave up your profession discouraged?"
"Xo, he was convicted."
"Then he was guilty?"
"Xo, he was innocent."
"But didn't the evidence prove his
guilt?"
"Certainly it did."
"Then why do you say he was innocent?"
"Because I had killed the dog myself a
few nights before for trespassing on my
poultry, and I came to the conclusion that
any business thar would aid a man to convict
a neighbor of his own crimes wasn't
the business for me, so I gave it up."?
[X. Y. Tribune.
Mixed.?Some people have such an unhappy
facility of expression, combined
with slipshod methods of thought, that
they are likely to indulge in speech which
it would "puzzle a Dutchman" to translate.
The "The History of Weare, Xew
Hampshire," refers to a loquacious townswoman
who reversed the old maxim, and
"went ahead" with out being sure she
was right.
One of her stories was to the effect that
her husband sowed some flax, which came
up and grew, until the frost struck it, and
blighted every spear.
Then the worms took it, and ate it all
up; then the drought took it, and killed
it all, and when they came to pull it they
didn't have half a crop. After that they
rotted it and her husband done out some
of it, and it was'n't good for nothing.
Then they let it lay a year, and it was
the best flttx she ever see. She used some
of it to ma^e cloth for her husband'sshirts.
"it was cotton linen cloth. It was tow
warp, and the warp was filling, and the
blue was yaller, and it was dyed in huckleberry,
and was thick as the table. It wore
splendidly, and my husband liked the
shirts so well that he wore them all out in
a fortnight I" *
A Collapsed Duuggist.--"I want some
consecrated lye," he slowly announced, as
he entered the store.
"You mean concentrated lye," suggested
the druggist, as he repressed a smile.
"Well, may be I do. It does nutmeg
any difference. It's what I camphor, anyhow.
What does it sulphur ?"
"Eighteen cents a can."
"Then you can give me a can."
"I never cinnamon who thought himself
so witty as you do," said the druggist,
in a gingerly manner, feeling called to do
a little punning himself.
"Well, that's not bad, ether," laughed
the customer, with a syruptitious glance.
"Iammouia novice at the business, though
I've soda good many puns that other punsters
reaped the credit of. However, I
don't care a copperas far as I am concerned,
though they ought to be handled with
clove stiil they wouldn't know what was
the madder with them. Perhaps I should
not myrrh myrrh. We have had a pleasant
time, and I shall caraway?"
But it was too much for the druggist.
He collapsed.
fifey- Two good-natured country-women
came from theadjacent farms into a Western
town to do a bit of shopping, and were
attracted by the sign of a female M. I),
who had recently come from the Bust to
try her chances in the great West. The
country-women knocked at the door,
which was promptly answered, and they
were ushered into the presence of the
young M. 1>. They said to the doctor,
"Have you any shapes?" The doctor
looked puzzled, but at once recovered herself,
as she supposed they ment an articulated
skeleton, which she at once produced.
The country-women were horrified. "Mo,
no! we saw your sign, Miss Mary , i
M. 1).?Milliner and Dressmaker?and we
thought, of course, you laid shapes for bonnets."
The country-women were amazed
at the explanation that M. D. did not
mean "Milliner and Dressmaker." ,

BRIGHT SIDE OF FARMING.
It is undeniably true that the energetic, |
driving farmer, who follows the business
in view of making money, involves an i
outlay of much hard labor and energy of j
mind. With this fact in view, and the |
numerous trials and perplexities which i
always occur to the farmer during the very j
busy seasons, and the fact that the hardest i
and most important work of the year !
comes during hot weather, when labor |
and exertion are most unpleasant, and j
when those who follow other callings have i
comparative leisure?it is not surprising j
that many farmers become discontented,
and sometimes discouraged.
A certain amount of discontent seems to
be a law of human nature. People of all
callings look with envy upon those who
follow other kinds of business, and how- j
ever well a person may be situated, he is :
likely to imagine that others have a better j
lot in life: It is not surprising, then, to j
fiud farmers looking enviously upon lawyers,
merchants, or those who follow other
callings which demand less exertion of
body and mind.
But there is a bright side of farming
which every farmer ought to recognize, <
and which more than balances its unpleas- j
ant features. While it is true that much j,
farm work is laborious and unpleasant, it ; ,
is also true that farmers may enjoy ample
time for rest, and without financial loss.
The work of the farm requires more mus- <
/i.Oow ovoftinn than that of the shOD or I
VUiai VAV? vivta ......
desk, but it is less confining and monoto- ,
nous. The clerk, book-keeper and me- ,
chanic work more hours a day, and are
more closely confined than the average '
farm hand, whose work is in the open air '<
and who has his evenings for himself.
The winter months, with their longevenings,
afford to the farmer comparative leis- :
ure and ample time for recreation, amusement
and intellectual culture. They afford
opportunity for reading and study, 1
and for laying plans for future work and I
improvement. !
The luscious fruits, fresh vegetables,
pure, rich milk and golden butter, which i
are looked upon by the wealthy residents <
of cities as luxuries, come to the farmer
directly from nature and at little expense.
The same articles are bought by city people
at extravagant prices, after they have
lost their freshness and most desirable
aualities. It is unfortunate that farmers
o not, as a rule, better appreciate nature's
gifts. The farmer deals directly with na- I
ture, and the blessings which he should appreciate
and enjoy, more than counteract
the difficulties ana disappointments which
fall in his path.
There is no reason why farmers may not
lead happy lives. Ambition, if carried
too far, becomes a misfortune, and excludes
contentment and enjoyment. But
with an aim to live and to enjoy, rather ,
than to accumulate fortunes, there is no ,
calling better adapted to comfort, contentment
and real happiness than agriculture.

A REMARKABLE HITTER COW.
Since testing the butter capacity of thor- I
oughbred dairy cattle has been adopted for
the guidance of breeders, some yields were
obtained that were so extraordinary as to
excite incredulity until the tests were repeated
under the supervision of responsible,
disinterested committees, placing their
truthfulness beyond cavil. The Herald
has published several of the most remarkable
of these during the past two years.
Another has occurred which surpasses any ,
- - - - ? - 1 " H
yield hitherto reported ior me periuu ui
three months. The cow in question is the ,
registered Jersey, Mary Anne of St. Lamberts,
9,770, the property of Mr. Valancey ,
E. Fuller, of Hamilton (Ont.), Canada.
She was four years old in March last, and
dropped the third calf in May, soon after ,
which the test began. During the first
thirty-one days she gave 100 lbs. 12 oz. of
well-worked unsalted butter, which after
being salted one ounce to the pound and
ready for the table, weighed 100 lbs. 124 oz. '
The third week of this test was conducted ;
under the supervision and control of a ;
committee appointed by the Canadian Jersey
Breeders' Association. The week's ;
result was 23 lbs. 3 oz. unsalted butter, ,
which weighed, after the salt was added,
24 lbs. 13 oz. The second thirty-one days J
gave 97 lbs. 8 oz. unsalted, or 102 lbs. G oz.
salted butter, and the third thirty-one days !
98 lbs. 44 oz. unsalted, or 102 lbs. 10} oz. ;
salted. The aggregate for ninety-three
days is therefore 296 lbs. 8* oz. of unsalted
butter, which when completed, weighed
311 lbs. 13 oz. During the test the cow
had no other food than grass and five 1
quarts of ground oats per day. She is
much imbred through her sire's family to
the celebrated English bred Jersey bull
Dauncey's Rioter, one of whose sons was
the sire of Mr. A. B. Darling's remarkable
butter cow Eurotas, 7,828, that gave by
actual test 778 pounds of butter in one year,
producing also a calf.?fN. Y. Herald.
IIow to Make Hens Lay.?People
would better understand this matter if
they consider for a moment a hen to be, as
she is, a small steam engine, with an egg- 1
laying attachment, and that there must
be a constant supply of good feed and pure
water to keep the engine and its attachment
up to its work. In addition to keeping
before hens that have complete liberty
a constant supply of water, summer and :

cool and cold weather of fall, winter and
spring, a dough compounded as follows,
fed one day, then intermitted for two days, 1
produces excellent results: To three
gallons of boiling water add one-half an
ounce of common salt, a teaspoonful of '
cayenne pepper and four ounces of lard. {
Stir the mixture until the pepper has im- I
parted considerable of its strength to the 1
water. Meantime the salt will have been 1
dissolved and the lard melted. Then, 1
while yet boiling hot, stir in a meal made 1
of oats and corn ground together in equal 1
proportions, until a thick mush is formed.
This is an excellent food for the purposes
intended?to make hens lay in cool i
weather. i
Products of One Acre.?A farmer 1
living in Maine makesastateinent of what (
he has raised this year on one acre of land, 1
almost enough, we should think, to Support (
a family. He planted one-third of his
acre in corn, and he usually produces thir- !
ty bushels of good corn. This quantity 1
was sufficient for his family use, and for 1
fattening two or three large hogs. From I
the same ground on which the corn stood, 1
he raised two or three hundred pumpkins,
and an ample supply of beans. From a <
bed of six rods square he usually obtains <
sixty bushels of onions ; these he sold for <
one dollar per bushel, which amount pur- I
chased his Hour for one year. Thus, from ]
one-third of an acre and an onion bed he I
obtained his breadstuffs and two or three 1
hundred pounds of pork. The remainder
of the ground was appropriated to all
kinds of vegetables, for both summer and *
winter use. He also had a flower garden, i
raspberries, currants, gooseberries in great i
abundance, and also a few choice fruit i
trees. j

The following is the new remedy for J
burns, which was tested before a medical i
society; one of their number pouring i
vrutor nn hU wrist to create a burn '
""""'ft
to cure! Moisten enough cooking soda I
und spread it on the burn. Put a wet 1
L'lotii over it, and a dry one over that, t
Renew as often as desired. Xo other I
dressing is necessary, and there will be no i
?car. If the burn should be bare of skin, J
it may be better to apply a soft, thin cloth i
dipped in a strong solution of soda, and 1
renew often, always placing a dry cloth J
above. 1
Staggers are the result of congestion of
the brain, due to over feeding. Pigs are |
more often overfed than any other animals, i {
and it is the source of nearly all the dis- | J
eases to which they are subject. It affects i (
the nerve centres in the brain and spinal j c
cord. Give the pigs no feed at ail for for- 1
ty-eight hours, but only water, and then ?
begin feeding very lightly, and give the j
food in a shallow trough, so that it can be ; }
taken up only slowly. x

Save the soot that falls from the ^
chimneys. A pint of soot to a pailful of 1
water will make a liquid manure of great f
value for flowers and plants of all kinds. t

A CRADLE IN THE HOUSE.
Wo haven cradle in the liouso,
And we have something in it;
A freakish, wayward, winsome bairn,
Not bigger than a minute.
Although no diadem ho wears
But his ringlets soft and brown,
His every smile and frown we heed,
As if ho wore a crown.
No scepter in his hand ho holds,
But then his pinky list so small,
He, like a royal monarch, wields,
And wo are humble subjects all.
And when his tiny foot he stamps
If aught, caprice or whim, displeaso,
The brightest gift in babydoni
Wo bring him to appease.
And when he wills to close his eyes,
We go on tiptoe through the house;
Even papa'8 heavy-booted foot
Kalis softly as a mouse.
We have it desnot on the throne.
Reclining like a kinglet,
For we have a cradle in our house,
And we have something in it.
"AITLES (IK I'M IIS ?"
It costs something, now ami then, to be
courteous. Yet a gentleman will not hesitate
to pay the price. Several years ago
three young men, just graduated from college,
went on a hunting tour through
West Virginia, seeking sport and health.
Dne day they stopped at a farmer's house
to take dinner. They were cordially welcomed
by the good man and his wife,
whose table was bountifully spread. At
the close of the meal a basket of apples
and pears was placed on the table.
"Mr. Ames, will you take apples or
p'ars?" asked the fanner's wife, addressing
one of the youug men.
The young man was perplexed. lie
wanted pears. "But," he said to himself,
"if I say pears, I may mortify my hostess
by seeming to correct her pronunciation.
Should I say p'ars, the boys would laugh."
"An apple, if you please," he answered,
denying himself that he might be courteous.
A similar question was put to Mr. Childs,
who also concluded to deny his appetite
for the sake of courtesy, and take an apple.
Mr. Smith, the third student had made up
his mind that he would take a pear.
When the lady asked, "Mr. Smith, will
you take apples or p'ars?" he answered, as
courteously as if addressing a duchess:
"Thank vnu. madam. I'll take n'ars."
Two beautiful pears were passed to him,
somewhat to the chagrin of his companions,
who ate their unrelished apples in silence.
As they were leaving the house
the kind-hearted matron gave to Ames
and Childs several apples, but to Smith
three or four pears. The young men hastened
to get out of sight that they might
divide the spoils and enjoy a laugh over
the self-denial their courtesy caused them.
"Boys," said Ames, "I wouldn't have
mortified the old lady for a basketful of
pears."
"Nor 1 have said 'pears,' " remarked
Smith. "There's a timeand place for everything
; but the dinner-table is not the
place to correct your hostess' pronunciation."?[Youth's
Companion.

I Wish I Was a Christian.?"No, I
think I am no nearer being a Christian
than when I saw you a month ago."
"But, why not?" ,
"Oh! I don't know ; hut I do wish I was
a Christian."
"So you said a month ago. So you said
a year ago."
"Yes. I cannot remember when 1 did
not wish this."
"Does your wishing do you any good ?"
"Why, yes. One ought to wish so, I
think."
"You remind me of a boy I once knew,
lie was in my class in Sunday-school.
When he was sixteen or seventeen he became
a Christian. He once said to me: 4I
have been the most foolish boy you ever
saw. Ever since I can remember I have
wished to be a Christian. When I was a
little fellow I never broke a wish-bone,
but my wish was that I might be a Christian.
I never told any one of this, but it
Jidn't seem to help me any. I might have
broken all the wishbones in creation and
not moved a step forward. I found wishing
either with or without a wish-bone did
no good, and that all the way to be a Christian
was to say and mean 1 will and not I
wish. I'll go to Jesus; not I wish I was
there. When I came to this decision, and
acted on the light I had, I found 1 was
there.' "
"Are you not, my friend, acting as did
this young lad with his wish-bone?"
"I never saw it in that light before.
Yes, it is cowardice or laziness that keeps
me back. I'll go, and not wish I was
there."
Tttp \Vtsdom ok Words.?Too often
the "wisdom of words" explains the gospel
away. 11 is possible to retine a doctrine
till the very soul of it is gone; you may
draw such nice distinctions that the true
meaning is filtered away. Certain divines
tell us that they must adapt the truth to
the advance of the age, which means that
they must murder it and liing its dead
body to the dogs. It is asserted that the
advanced philosophy of the nineteenth
century requires a progressive theology to
keep abreast of it; which simply means
that a popular lie shall take the place of
an offensive truth. Under pretense of
winning the cultured intellects of the age,
"the wisdom of words," has gradually
landed us in a denial of those first principles
for which the martyrs died. Apologies
for the gospel, in which the essence of
it is conceded to the unbeliever, are worse
than infidelity. I hate that defense of the
gospel which razes it to the ground to preserve
it fiora destruction.?[C. H. Spur?eon.
Christian Duties.?If you come to
us and say you are a praying man, we
inswer we are glad ; but we would like to
isk your wife and children what your
praying is doing for you ? If you say you
laily read the Hible, that is right; but let
us ask your partner in business how much
if its teachings you practice? If you say
fou are a member of the church, we are
*lad of that, if you area worthy member; if
lot?we arc sorry for the church, Put let
js go on to the street to see whether the
people you daily meet think you ought to
:>e a church-member.
So it comes to pass that a bundle of
Jhristian duties may be dry and useless,
ir they maybe the evidence of a sincere
Christian life. Whether a man is a Chrisdan
or not, depends entirely upon the
principles which gpvern his daily life, and
he harvest the world is gathering from
diat life.?[Golden Ilule.
A Scripture Puzzle.?A young Pible
itudeht was asked, "IIow many boys are
:here in your class?" He replied: "If
rou multiply the number of Jacob's sons
jy the number of times which the Israeltes
compassed Jericho, and add to the
iroduct the number of measures of barley
lloaz gave to Jtuth, divide this by the
lumber of Hainan's sons, subtract the
lumber of each kind of clean beasts that
vent into the ark, multiply by the numrtf
muii (lull uvmf fn si'i'k Kliiiih after
le was taken to heaven, subtract from
;his Joseph's age at the time lie stood be'ore
Pharoah, add the number of stones
n David's ha# when lie killed Goliath,
subtract the number of furlongs that Bethtny
was distant from Jerusalem, divide
)y the numbers of anchors, cast out when
I'aul was shipwrecked, subtract the numier
of people saved in the ark, and the renainder
will be the answer."
What a Mistakk.?A young man once
licked up a sovereign lying in the road.
Kver afterwards as he walked he kept his
lyes steadily fixed on the ground in hope
if finding another. And in the course of a
ong life he did pickup, at dillereuttimes, !
i good amount of gold and silver.
All these days, however, he saw not that
leaven was bright above him and nature :
vas beautiful around. He never once i
ifted his eyes from the mud and filth in j
vhich he sought the treasure, and when j
le died a rich old man he only knew this j
air earth of ours as a dirty road in which j
o pick up money as you walk along.

Reduction In Price to Clubs.
$100.00 IN PREMIUMS TO CLUB-MAKERS.
Prospectus for 18S9.
"*?7"ITH tho opening of tbo new year, THE
T T ENQUIRER will be increased in size,
the enlargement of the sheet on which it will
be printed admitting of an additional amount
of matter equivalent to SIX COLUMNS MORE
than is furnished in its present form. With better
facilities than we have ever before possessed,
and desiring to largely increase tho circulation
of the paper, wo have decided to REDUCE
THE PRICE to yearly SUBSCRIBERS
IN CLUBS, and also of subscriptions for shorter
periods.
The features of THE ENQUIRER, which
have been distinctive for nearly thirty-five
years, will bo continued in the future, while
now attractions will be added, it being our determination
to increase and maintain the popularity
of tho paper with the masses of the
people, and especially those of York county.
With this idea in view, we shall devote espeefal
attention to tho BUSINESS ADVANTAGES
and NATURAL RESOURCES possessed by
York county?agricultural, mineral and climatic?and
in employing our columns in the
development of these. Tho completion of an
important line of railroad, traversing the entire
length from east to west of the county, will

possible the inauguration of new enterprises
and the better development of the hidden
wealth of our county, in the accomplishing of
which THE ENQUIRER, :ls in the past, will
ever be a ready and cheerful instrument.
OUR PREMIUM UL.V:V.
Recognizing the fact that it is frequently the
case that the premiums we have heretofore offered
for the largest clubs are. not suited to
the wants of those to whom they are awarded,
we have decided to oiler only CASH PREMIUMS
for the five largest clubs as follows:
For the largest club for one year, ?.'5f>; for the
second largest clubs, ?2">; for the third largest
club, Slf?; for the fourth largest club, ?10; and
for tlie fifth largest club, ?f>.
C OTOTDITIOKTS.
These cash premiums will be awarded on
the following conditions:
To the persons getting up clubs of subscribers
to the ENQUIRER, at ?1.7f> per annum for
each subscriber, will be awarded the premiums
as stated above.
The time for completing the clubs under the
above olfer is limited to 1 o'clock P. M., on the
SECOND MONDAY OF MARCH, 1889. Competitors
may begin to secure SUBSCRIBERS
AT ONCE?the time of subscription to commence
whenever the name is handed in. The
money for each subscriber is expected to be
paid at the time the name is entered upon our
books, and no name will bo counted in competition
for a premium and no premium delivered
until the subscription price has been paid.
To persons who make up clubs of ten or
more names, but who may lail to obtain one of
the above premiums, we will send the ENQUIRER
for one year free of charge, and to those
who send a club of twenty or more names, but
who may fail to get a premium, we will forward
the' ENQUIRER one year free of charge,
and a copy, one year, of any weekly newspaper
or monthly magazine published in the
United States, the publication to be selected by
the person entitled to receive it. Or, we will
give a copy of the ENQUIRER for one year
for a club of ten, and for all names over ten in
such clubs, TWENTY CENTS for each name.
It is not necessary that the names of a club
should all be at the same post otliee. Names
may be taken at any number of places. One
name for two years will be equivalent to two
names for one year each.
All subscriptions must be forwarded to us at
the expense of those sending them.
We will be responsible for the safe transmission
of money only when sent by draft, registered
letter or money or^er drawn on the Yorkville
post office.
In sending names, write plainly, giving
postofliee, county and State.
All subscriptions will be discontinued at the
expiration of the time paid for.
A separate list will lie kept for each clubmaker,
who will bo credited with every name
sent, so that the number sent by any one person

WHAT SELLS.
Any artli'li! of genuine merit might In sell; some
place B. B. B. against the world. We present below
a remarkable showing from an obscure section, not

It is the same way wherever B. B. B. lias been
introduced and given a fair trial with other remedies:

Putnam Co., April 0!l, 1KB".
I have been suffering for most thirty years with an
itching and burning all over luy face and body. I look
eighteen bottles of one lilood medicine and it done inc
no good. I commenced last January to use It. B. B.,
and after using live bottles I felt better and stouter
than I have in thirty years, my health is better and I
weigh ni?rc,thaii I ever did. The itching has nearly
eea-eil. ami I am confident that a few more bottles of
It. It. I!, will cure me entirely. I am sixty-two years
old and can now do a good day's work in my lield. I
consider it the Imsl medicine I have ever seen, for it

have ever taken. I hail, in all, nearly a hundred risings

TWO BOTTLES CURE RHEUMATISM,
Houoiiton, Ark., June 4, 1867.
I cheerfully state the following facts in regard to
the use of your medicine in my family. My little son,
I ! years of age, suffered an acute attack of rheumatism,
caused hv undue exposure and chlling of the
blood. 1 heard your remedy highly recommended,
and purchased one bottle of Moncricf St llro., Prescolt,
Ark. Jn about one month, after using tills bottle, he
became so much better that I got the second bottle
which is now being used, and my son is nearly well,
and I thyik by removing him to a cooler summer
climate ("vhicli I will do) and continuing its use, a
perfeect cure will lie effected. I consider II. II. II. a
most excellent blood purifier.

PTIIIK great popularity of these Vehicles have

Wo have been deceived by just such
claims ourselves and know whereof we speak.
We have handled and repaired all of tho different
makes of Vehicles that have been sold in

that would compare with the genuine COLUMBUS
