Hull (the great vlullniHt) has taken .In hum Russell lxiwtd'u house In Cambridge. Ho la remarried and livoa here with hla wife and daughter, lie haa a magnificent head, and that broad, expansive smile which teems to belong to geniuses. Liszt had onn like it. "He and Mra. Hull come hero often on Hunday evenings, and sometimes he brlngH hla violin. Mrs. H. arcompaniea him, and he plays divinely. There is no viollulst pn earth that can compare with him.

Many Ingenious methods are employed in salesmanship. The art becomes closely related to human na ture. An Albany cigar dealer has dem onstrated explicitly just how far the eye enters into the question. He discovered he was stocked with a brand of cigarettes that were prov ing "stickers." Instead of reducing the price and consequently losing money, or barely clearing at cost, he devised a new method. He ranged a half dozen boxes along the top of his show cases. Each was inclosed in a glasa case of its own. Naturally the at tention of tho customer was attracted by their individuality. Those cigarettes wero disposed of at a proiit. That Albany cigar dear er discovered something that is mak ing money for him. That little idea of individuality he is applying to evei^ line of his goods that incline to "go slow."

In the country dis tricts of France there are annually hundreds of serious cases of mush room poisoning, which the society now hopes may be easily cured. Church and State.
