old fellow down town who makesa gt ‘ . ,

everybody reads the evening paper. but
in the rush of business the morning: po-
pers may get lost in the shuffle. The bid
man gets out of bed at an early hour
and gets soapy of each of the morning
papers as early as they can be bought;
He then reads them exhaustively, and
by the time business men get down town
he has thoroughly mastered all branches
of the news of the day. .He is well edu-
cated and bright and hn'a a keenpercep-
lion. ' He then starts out. dropping in on
first one ,and then another of his sub«
scrihers, fbr he lets his services by the
weck, just as a newspaper.
“He enters n bank where everybody is
busy. He knows the likes and dislikes
of every one of hiscustomors. and he on-
tertaina ouch for a few monwuts with
the news of his choice, and then with a
few passing remarks about the general
news of the day passes on to the next.
You will find him discussing the silver
question one moment and race horses
the next. He can tell the tips for the
day and the prices of .silver. lie knows
the latest in. art and literature and is
thoroughly posted in politics. He is a
walking cyclopcdia. lie is not only ii
daily newspaper. but ii \vliolo file of
newspupcrwwith a lightning reference

andifaskcd will refresh your memory

and while in: answers every Question
askr-d by a subscriber freely he abso-
lutely will not lillk iothc rmusuliscribcr.
“if you want. to talk to him about the
luippcniugs of the day, you must pay a
week's fro in advance, Then he will see
you cvcry day for :1 worth. if you are at
your otlice regularly, he will mine to
you daily, but if you full to be on hand
there that is your loss. One bounty of
his system is flint he has in) bad debts.
