You can buy groceries and otiier necessities off-hand, but when you go to buy a book it is not so easy to decide upon what you want. It is not pleasant either to have a clerk follow you around pressing you to buy. We know it is not possible to sell eoods unless you know what we have to offer, so it is at all times a pleasure to us to have any who are interested in books come into our store to look through the stock.

The chief attraction of a literary na- ture booked for Hamilton this season is that of James Whitcomb Rilcv, the Hoosier poet, and Douglas Sherley, the southern author, who will appear in readings from their own works, iu the Grand opera house, on Feb. 2. Mr. Kiley has been termed the sweet singer, who with his magic lyre has touched tlie hearts of countless thous- ands; wjhose words anil woi'ka ore known and loved wherever the English language is spoken; whose linot are limned with laughter and pathos; who personates his own creations, so that we see them before us in flesh and blood; the Bums of America; the poet in the plenitude of his powers. Mr. Sherley is a stranger to the piat- fonu in Canada, but ms appearance will likely be hailed with delight. The best students of American literature look upon him as the polished romancer of the south, who has flRshed a search- light into now fields nod reproduced the results in colors that charm; whoso wit is as infectioiu as a summer's day; whose versatility, combined with that of Mr. lUley, completes one of the most enjoyable entertainments known to th« lyceum or the stage. The public appearances - of t hew tw i n" spirits of genius have been highly ap- preciated in the few prrileg^ cities where they have appeared jointly, and great enthusiasm always prevailed. —"What are you crying for. Frits?" "Because my brothers have a holiday and I haven't." "But why haven't yon a holi- day, too?" "Because, I'm not old enough to go to school yet." —Mrs. Newman— What made you tell me he was the carver of his owu tor- tune, when he got every penny he has by marrying an heiress/ Newman— Humph! He had to cut out a half a dosen fellowe to get her, didn't he? ■ r^ TUTTI Frutti AN ABSOLUTE CURE -FOR- INDIGESTION Sold by all Druggists & Confeotioners TaksaowortUsas imitation.
