An Irish shoemaker lately advised a Customer, when he complained of his new boots being tight, not to put them on until he had worn them for a dav or two. Somebody estimated that every man who Uvea to be sixty years old has spent ' seVen months buttoning his shirt collar. Thirty years mare ought to be added for hun-tixig.up.the. coUar button.' A little - girl .asked aminister, “Do you think my. father will ,go to .heaven ?’! '‘Why, yes my child.; Why do you ask ?’ ’ “Well, because if he don’t have his own way there he won’t stay long.” Well-dressed Men. —Among those habitual errors of conduct which are common in both careful and careless persons, not one is more often met with than disregard of the advantages derivable from being well dressed; yet whoever lives observantly in such a County as Patea, is soon convinced that this mistake is fruitful of mischievous results. All of us instinctively judge from first impressions; we proceed from the exterior to the interior; a well-dressed man gratifies our fondness for beauty and our appreciation of neatness; and there is no one, however cynical or unobservant, but is pleased when a well-dressed person, even if a stranger, passes by, and disposed to think favorably of him. This universal disposition cannot safely be offended. To be habitually a sloven is to constantly, though unconsciously, offend numerous peramong whom the favour of some may be and therefore a shrewd man is not ’content to make himself neat now and then, but always will appear well dressed. He keeps his clothes in good order, and is careful in the selection of a tailor. In bringing this maxim before public inotice, 11. A. Adams, Cardigan House, is ■gratified by remembering that the disposition Df a great many of his customers to appear in public well dressed has been met by the combination in his goods of selection, material, good fit, and low price. He obtains his cloths in the most advantageous markets; he employs first-class cutters and workmen: he avoids obsolete fashions; and he is content with moderate profits in the place oft ne exorbitant percentage which only a few years ago was universal, and still is frequent in the tailoring trade. His gloves, hats, shirts, hosiery, ties, and scarfs, are also such as will please the most fastidious. Whatever experience, capital, care, and good taste can effect on the tradesman’s side, i& done by It. A, Adams, in order that all his customers may realise the substantial advantages of being well-dressed; and that his efforts give satisfaction, is shown by the rapid and steady increase in the number of those who deal with him. Attentive to the changes of costume necessitated by varying .seasons, and of style by the dictatee of fashion, E. A. Adams has now on hand a large and carefully selected stock of cloths suitable for all seasons.—E. A. ADAMS Cardigan House, Carlyle.— advt.
