Ready Money.
The gateway of success is ever
open to the man who, by having
ready money, is prepared to take
advantage of some of the many

The man who has ready money

without ready money will always
live in want and anxiety.

Department will open the gate to
w i
I YOU; and by constantly adding to ;
Wit, with the interest that we allow
xevery three months at the rate of

Caught Both Way*.
Sir Edward lnoratou. once English
amLussudor to the United States, and
Judge Polaud of Vermont bore a remarkable
resemblance to each other,
and this fact sometimes led to amusing
results.
At u wedding in Washington a young
than went up to Judge Poland, greeted
him and held out his hand.
"I fear." said the Judge, "that you
have the advantage of me."
"Is it possible," asked the young
man. "that you don't remember seeing
me with my father in Mexico?"
"1 don't recollect ever being in Mex'
ico."
"Why. surely, you are Sir Edward
Thornton ?"
"By no means. I am Judge Poland
of Vermont."
A week or so later the baffled young
man caught sight of Judge Poland, as
he thought, and determined to smooth
over his recent blunder. "That was
an awkward mistake of mine the other
night." he said, "my taking you for
old Thornton."
"And. pray, for whom do you take
me now?" was the query.
"Why. Judge Poland of Vermont, of j
cot^se."

An Oversight.
The Judge Blanks of Alameda are
an old fashioned family, and there
never has been any lack of childish
prattle In their home these twenty
years and more.
'How many or your chllcten." asked
the rector on a recent pastoral visit,

"Why. let me see." replied Mrs.
Blank?"there's Blanche and Robert
and Seth and Rebecca and the baby.
Dear me. 1 had no Idea there were so
many since our last christening! We'll
be on hand next Sunday in full force,
and I shall never let so many accumn

some one of the party asked Lincoln

Abe straightened oat bis lank and
