This, ladies, (gentiemen are not interested in bim.) is the model “Counter Jumper.”’ or as he is sometimes f.c stiously desigt aed “The opad” He it is who measures tape by the yard or dneb; who in a mild pleasing tone, or with an emphatic and earnest epee earns his dail, bread by the sweat of hia tongue, the flouris of bis yardstick, and his blunt pointed scissors. He talks calico, as Everett talks Washington; «prends before the ladies the last new pattern o. silk ara ee before his cus tomer the last Pictorial Weekly Blatherskite Mammoth. The Model Dry Goods Clerk is an anomaly in so far as relates to the mysterious methods «hereby upon within a fraction of no salary at all, he continues to dress better than his em- ployer, which he is compelled todo. A jour- neyman dry goods clerk travels on his shape. Me has unlimited supply of gab, brilliant im- agination, and a face as impervious to shame at — caught in a ‘business lie’ as a bar of lead. His powers of persua. e tremen- dous, and his «miles is as fascinating as his whiskers. The old’ race of clerks is fast dying out— ‘sesing away. Women are now the shop- eepers. and the custodians of the ribbons and willinery affairs. The awful whoppers, -‘out of whole cloth,” which tho model clerk, in tho retail line, is compelled to invent, utter and pledge his honor as true. are incalculable. He is at times obliged to utter the most egregious of Munchausens to effect the sale of a yard of sixpenny muslin, to smile blandly, and mur- der and mangle truth while he smiles, in order to sell a skein of silk or a paper of pins. If a Principal is responsible for the acts of his agents, what a fearful account the employer ot a model clerk will have to balance in the grent hereafter. The salary of « model clerk is not far from seven dollars for first class clothing. How he omplishes this seemingly impossible mathe- seiical feat can never be satisfactorily ex- plained— by him. He clothes himself in black and fine linen, and slways has a plentiful supply of small change. ‘chicken feed,”’ as he terms it, in his Pocket. The model clerk can sell oan goods equaily as well. and at prices equally as exor- bi _ as he can goods which are perfectly aoe *Whatis it, madam?’ he murmur, con- Adingly, az he leans over the counter. ‘I wish a pattern of calico.” ~ What tint did you say ?”” *: Oh, a tight bluish.” Clerk turns to pile of prints on the back shelf, jerks outa bolt of the desired color, sives it a scientific flourish before it is brought to the counter, and spreads it before the shrewd gaze of his customer, who is an old ebopper. “There, madam, this is the only piece left out of ten cases. I assure you, madam, that if we had twenty cases of this pattern, they’d be all gone before to-morrow night. You notice how beautiful the pattern, how elegant the vine running irre; ularly, as it does, inter- iingles with the bluish flower, ah? Oh, yes. warranted to wash; colors are fast ma’am; I wouldn't think of offering goods of this des- eription which were not fast. We never mis- represent our prints; we sell them as they are, and insist upon every one examining them thoroughly. Then, madam, allow me to hold it in the proper light; a great deal depends upon the manncr in which a piece is ex- amined.” *: The price i “ Really, madam, we've been selling it at eighteen cents, but as this is positively the last piece (there were three cases of this old print vmder the counter) you shall h»ve it at fifteen; ( 2n cents was theutmosthe h d verreceive ’ and that allowed three cents profit per yard;) fifteen cents, a ruinous sacrifice; but then you know we must clear our shelves, and busine:s is so dull, scarcely anything doing, (sold more that day than he had any day duri: g the year.) On" [was going to mention Mrs. Stuyvesant and Mrs Townsend, of Fifth avenue, bought the last piece and shared it, they were so le- lighted with it. How much will I cut off; better take the whole piece, ma'am; never have another opportunity like this; it’s a charming piece.” The lady tries to get a word in edgewise, batin vain. Clerk knows his business thor- oughly, and operates accordingly. Customer objects to the vine, and Clerk thereupon argues upon the beauty of the flow- ers and the texture of the Article. At last, after innumerable sugar-coated lies. exceed- ing the largest of Sinbad the Sailo: profusten of objections. doubts and “ eating ‘lown”’ of the prices, the trade is completed. She has been there one hour and forty minutes, and he bus telked that length uf time almost continuously She has purchased one yard—price twelve cents. Half an hour's further talk of the model clerk induces the customer to make the extrav- *gant outlay of —perhaps one cent fora skein of thread. Thus it is that a full-grown man fritters away the best part of his existence in a situa- tien which 2 woman alone should occupy. oe —___ Tae First Notice of Coxsumptiox.—The nese is to be regarded as the beginning of the Jung apparatus, just as the mouth is the begin- ving of the digestive apparatus. The nose is ene orgen of respiration, for animals breathe not through the mouth, but through the no trils. The nose, too, has its cough; sneezing ix the name affixed to this action. The nose thus viewed is a part of the breathing apparatus, and hence the reason appears why, if there is such a state of the lung tissue as is associated with blood discharge, it is not unlikely that this tendency existing also in the blood tissue of the nose, the discharge of the blood from the nose becomes premonitory, and indicative of the diseased changes in the lungs. What an admirable contrivance is it that the discharge of blood should thus be exhibited in connection with the nose, since here the blood escapes ex- teriorly; whereas, if taking place in the tissue of the lungs, a suffocation, an asphyxia of the Jungs would be caused. This nose-bleedi ig gives a notice, which, if homeopathically at- tended to, would prevent, in the majority of eases, any further development of the lung disease. It is nature giving warning, and the a listens to the notice: but only he who is bomeopathically well informed in the pathogenetic effects of remedies can listen effectually Hes Attuvev to Cows.—In the agricultural districts the operation of milking cows is called «pulling teats." This isthe preface to our short but affecting story. The people of 8 —., Port- age county, have a debating society. The other night theydiscussed the question : ‘Is the human. tace increesing in di opment?’ The school- house was crowded with young ladies and gen- tlemen. One of the disputants for the negative rbly contended that the times were degenera- ting—that things were growing *‘wns’’ constantl: 5 Said he: “Why. what upon airth does ug man of to-day amount to?” He is feeble Io eeieconk mind, wears fine clothes that his father buys bim, bas rings on his fingers and a little hair on bis upper lip. and the hardest labor he can isto carry round a meerschaum Pipe. Now. when I was 2 boy we were not afraid to pull teats.” % A wild shout this announcement. The speaker » and in a faltering voice, said : ‘I alluded to cows.” That helped the matter. In Philadelphia, on Saturday, J. Miller and George W. Rheil, alias W Eddie, charged with the murder of Henry Gueker, 1 German, and throwing his body into the Cohocsink creek, were convieted by the jury. The former was convicted of murder in the first degree, the latter of murder in the second degree. Miller, after the commis- sion of the deed, fied to Baltimore, where he was apprebended. A motion fora new trial and in arrest of Judgment was made in Miller’s case. HE EVENING STAR | From the Scientific American. t moment the island of Great AYNARD'S Tichest in the world.
