—K W. Clapp <t Co. gives notice to be
found in another column, that they will sell
no more whiskies by the drink.
—Tbe following, so full of truth, and as
applicable here a* eke where, is taken from
the Jacksonport Herald: " What a pity, that
when a merchant wants a clerk, be ha* to
pass by his own townsmen and send, at a
great expense, abroad for one. There are
two causes for this: Oue is that our home
boys are not as good a* they might be, and
tbe other is that the average em plover would
sooner take chances with an unknown man
than with one whose little faults are known to
him. This is a mistake. Employe* wbo are
always ready for a position, are seldom quali
fied to fill one when they get it, and, be they
far or near, it is but a poor recommendation
to find them, Micawber like, ‘waiting for
something to turn up' Give our home bays
a chance Tney are as good a* anybody's
boys, and if their faults are known to you,
they arc much better than tbe stranger,
whose failings are concealed.”

to all oddfellows will bo brought before the
