Mary had alittle lamb, its fleece was whi'e as snow; it strayed away cue summers day where lambs should never go. Then Mary sat her down and tears streamed slowly down her face; she never found the lamb because she did not advertise. And Mary had a brother John, who kept a village store; he sat down and smoked his pipe and watched the open door. And as the people passed along and did not stop to buy, John still sat and sinokod his pipe aud bliuked his sleepy eye. And so the brokers seized his stock but still ho lingered near and Mary came to drop with him a sympathetic tear, “ How is it, sister, can tell mo why. othershopmau here sell all their goods so quickly and thrive from year to year?” Romembering now her own bad luck the little maid replies, *' These fellows fatten, John, because they advertise.’ Advertise in this paper, which finds its way into overy homo in the district.
