BOILER MEN KEPT BUSY.LOTS O r ORDERS AT THB ROB-

ERT8 BOILER JWORK8.

Boilers Now Being; Blade for Ship-ment to San Francises, mexieo an*Central America-Prospect* at tbeNetr Company. .

The Roberts Safety-Water Tube Boilercompany will start on tbe new year withthe most flattering prospects. The com-pany has just issued its prospectus andsubscription blank, and already a num-ber ot subscriptions have been received.Tbe prospectus gives the amount ofbusiness done by the company for sev-eral years past, and it ohows that aboutten per cent profit was made pn theamount of -the proposal capital stock ofthe company hist year, without the ad-vantages which the increased • capitalwill give.

The present capital stock, of the com-pany is (169,000, including the presentissue of thirty thousand dollars, or threehundred shares, The company hasbought tbe entire plant, patents andbusiness owned by Mr. Roberts, be ac-cepting payment in etock of the newcompany. The Roberta boilers are be-coming more and more popular, year byyear, and it was to gain the advantageof new capital that the business wasconverted from an Individual concerninto tbat of a corporation. '

The boilers have been in the past usedchiefly for yachts, the demand for themfor this purpose exceeding the capacityof Mr. Roberta's former works. Sincethe new factory was built, at Red Bankthey have been built for other purposes,and are fast finding their way into otherbusinesses. They have been used forfurnishing steam for steam heaters,' andfor this purpose they are well adapted,they being so built as to be able to beeasily taken apart. For this reason, andalso because very bad water can be usedin 4li"em, they are very available for neein mines, and several have already beenshipped to Mexico and Colorado. Onlya few are in use in faotories, no efforthaving been made^aa yet to introducethem for manufacturing purposes, aridall that have eu far been built for thispurpose have been constructed on thespecial order of yachtsmen who havehad this class of boiler in their yachts,and who have insisted on having themin factories in which they were in-terested.

The company expects to do a largebusiness in furnishing boilers for porta-ble engines for use in threshing, sawingwood; etc. The boilers being only abouthalf as heavy as ordinary boilers of thesame horse power, they can be easilytransported from place to place, andfrom their non-explosive qualitiea theycan be easily managed by unskilled men.

The company also receives a consider-able sum from royalties paid under itspatents by other manufacturers at pointswhich cannot be readily"reached by theRoberts company on account of greatdistance making practically prohibitivefreights. Very advantageous arrange-ments have been made in Denver andChicago for the manufacture of theRoberts .boiler on royalty, and the com-pany la now negotiating with parties inSan Francisco and other points on thePaciflo coast, as well aa in Canada, forthe manufacture of these boilers on asimilar basis. • .

Notwithstanding the'high freights toSan Francisco the company has recentlyBhipped several boilers to tbat port, foruse by yachtsmen who have seen themin use in the East. One party In Cen-tral America has already bought threefor use In bis vessels on the Bmall riversdown there. The fact tbat.they are ofvery light weight, and thus do not addvery greatly to the draught of the Tea-seta, gives them a great advantage overthe old etyle boilers, while their addi-tional qualitiea, that there is no dangerof explosion and that they can be ban-died by men who have bad little or notraining with engines and boilers, makethem doubly available for use by ordi-nary meohanica and unskilled engineers.The company has just received a fourthorder for a boiler from this party.: Boil-ers have also been recently shipped toSouth Carolina and Florida; Orders forlarge boilers have just been receivedfrom the South, where they are to beused in distilling water and furnishingsteam for manufacturing Ice; and lastFriday orders for four more boilers werereceived, two of which go into steamersnow being built at Toledo, while theothers are for small steam yachts ohLake George, On Monday an order wasreceived from the City of Mexico tor a100-horse power boiler, and another wasreceived for a similar boiler for the newBteaui launch which ts now being builtfor the Yale rowing association. Thisboiler has to be guaranteed to drive theboat ninety miles in five hours. - ,

The new company thus starts on thenew year with excellent prospects. Oftbe three hundred shares of stock anumber have already been Bpoken forby Red Bank parties, and about one-third of the entire issue has been takenand the money paid into the treasury.

While the boiler company thus startsoff with very flattering proepecte for thestockholders, the town of Red Bank willalso be benefited by the establishmentot the new industry here, Additionalbusiness for the company.means theemployment of additional' mechanicsand laborers, who must either be takenfrom the ranks of the unemployed inthis locality, or must be brought herefrom elsewhere. In either case therewill be new and additional wanta to besupplied, and in supplying the wantsthe merchants and business men of RedBank will reap additional profit.

THE JANUARY TERM. ,

Llgbt Work for tha Oraud Jury anda Small Civil MM. *

The January term of court will opennext Tuesday. The indications are thatthere will be only a small amount ofwork for the grand jury, and tbat therewill be a light civil calendar. Therehave been less than twenty cases sentup to Freehold from this part of thecounty for tbe grand jury to act upon,and usually indictments are found inless than half the case* where complaintsare made,

Prosecutor Ivins will unquestionablybe refippointed' for another term. Ifthere were no other reasons for it, thevigor with which he has entered uponthe duties of bis office, and the mannerin wbiob it has been conducted by him,would entitle him to a relppointment.

One thing in Mr, Ivlns'e course whichhas been very favorably commented, onfa the position be took in the bookmakers'cases. Before they came into oourt andpleaded guilty it was expected that avery stubborn fight would be made.They bad employed Wm. H. Vreden-bureh, B. W. Arrowsmlth and John T.Hoffman as their counsel, and in thepreliminary skirmish every posBiblejpoint of opposition' was seized upon.The labor Involved in these cases wouldhave made it necessary to have assistancein preparing them for trial. ProsecutorIvins did not go out of the county in se-lecting'counsel to.aid him, and he hadmade arrangements to have a memberof the Monmouth bar associated withhim in tha trials of the cases.

There is a good deal of speculationapd curiosity manifested over the Be-lection of Sheriff Smock's first grandjury. Tbe general opinion is that if hedoes as well in picking out his grandjurymen as be did in selecting the list ofnames from which the petty jurymenwere drawn, the county will nave smallcause for complaint,

There is a universal feeling of ap-proval and satisfaction over Judge Con-over's administration of the courts. Thework of the courts has been carried ohwith rapidity, which is something forwhich the taxpayers have cause to bethankful, Binca it coBts the county about$125 for each day the court is in session.

Ten of the. bookmakers have pleadedguilty, and each has been fined $800and costs. These fines go into thecounty treasury. Tbe remaining sevenbookmakers are expected at FreeholdBoon, when the*y will enter the sameplea and pay the same One.

A OHRISTMAS EVE FIRE.

Peek * Cards Suffer JtaoMco la IhelrPiano Warelsoose.

Last Wednesday night fire broke outIn the store of Peek & Curtis, at tbecorner of Broad and White street.. Tbefire was discovered by Night WatchmanJohn White about eleven o'clock, andhe promptly gave the alarm. »Tbe vari-ous flre companies responded quicklyand were soon on hand. Tbe building isof brick, and tbe firemen found it dim-cult to gain an entrance. The side doorwas chopped away and soon severalstreams of water were btsiug thrown onthe fire, wb,icb was in the back part ofthe salesroom, near the stairway. Theglass of the front doors was broken in,and streams of water were poured in.Tbe flames did not break out throughtbe building at any time during the fire,but smoke poured out in huge volumes.

A great deal of damage was done, con-sidering that the destruction by theflames themselves was very slight. Thebeat blistered and ruined some of thepianos and other instruments, and thesmoke and water aided in Injuring therest of the goods. Some of the piano?are completely ruined, and others are insuch a condition tbat it will cost almostas much to repair them as. they are'worth.

It is not known bow the fire originated.Tbe curtains in tbe front windows werepalled down, as is the custom of mostof the merchants on that side of thestreet on closing the stores on Saturdaynight and before a holiday. This la doneto prevent the morning sun from injur-ing the goods. The fact that tbe cur-tains were dOjwn prevented tbe fire frombeing seen as soon as might otherwisehave been tbe case. • '.; .

Peek & Curtis have not been able tomake an estimate of the amount of loss.The value of their stock of goods was$18,000, but a number of their pianoswere rented out, and this will somewhatreduce the value of their stock in thestore.. There was an insurance on thegoods of about 75 per cent of their value.As some of the property is totally de-struyed, and as almost all of it is moreor less damaged, the loss will probablyamount lo $8,000 or $0,000. There is justabout enough insurance on the propertyto cover the loss, but the amount thatPeek & Curtis will receive will dependlargely on the insurance adjusters.

With commendable energy Messrs,Peek & Curtis promptly opened an officein the rear part of the building, onWhite'street, whero they are now can'ducting their business.

tic Highlands savings fund and buildingand loan association has just beenpre-pared by Edward W. Leonard and JohnE. Foster, treasurer and secretary of tbsInstitution. The year just completed ha*been a remarkably prosperous one forthe association. The association hasbeen in existence three yean, beginningin November, 1887. Nearly five hundredshares were taken in the &nt aeries, anda little over a hundred were taken ineach of the two succeeding series.Usually in building and loan association*the first year or two shows a larger per-centage of profit than succeeding years*but tbe profit to the shareholder* in eachof the three series is uncommonly huge.There are' at present 484 shares In thefirst series, excluding those which bsvebeen withdrawn. These are valued at$11.05 per share, and as $80 only ha*been paid in, there is a profit of $5.05 oneach ehare. This ia equal to a profit ofnine per cent, figuring tbe profit fromthe time each payment was made. flharesin the second series, on which $24 baabeen paid in, are worth $27.68 each,showing a profit of $8.53, or over four-teen per cent; whilo shares in the thirdseries, on which $12 bas been paid in,are worth $18,40 each. This Is a profitof over twenty-four per cent. The rulesof the association prohibit loaning anyof the money on property outside o f Mid-dletown township. Tbe very activebuilding operations which have beencarried on at Atlantic Highlands for thepast year or two, and tbe great demandfor money there, ia the cause of the won-derful prosperity of the building andloan association.

TOWW TALK.

W. W. Taylor U a wealthyformer of Amnlto township. A tewweeks ago be sold one of his fartois andbe bag put out bil other farm on-aharesfor tbe coming year. Mr. Taylor droveto Holmdel village and tried to bur aplot of ground opon which to build afive-tbouund dollar cottage In which tolive. No land owner ol the villagewould sell a lot to Mr. Taylor, and bewill probably bare to build a residenceelsewhere. Mr. Taylor is a miihW fineman and tbe people of Holmdegjffcfl himfirst-rate, but tbe people of tlare all rich and they would rather.losa atooth than part with a foot of their landeven If they get ten times its value.Under these circumstances I think itwould be well for Mr. Taylor to come to{ted Bank to live. He'can buy lots any-where in town and can build a cottageto suit himself. After be has lived herea few months and made acquaintances,I think lie will agree with me that BedBank is the best town to live in thisaide of the Pearly Gates. Good citizensare always welcome in Bed Bank, and Iknow that W. W. Taylor is one of tbebest and brightest men in Atlantic town-ship. Come to Red Bank, Mr. Taylor,and let the agricultural aristocrats .ofHolmdel keep their marl bottom farmsfor another century.

Before starting in on the Dew yearbusiness men should consider whetherthere has not been something left undone during the past year which wouldhave made their business more success-ful ; whether they have, to use a popu-lar phrase, got out of their business every'dollar there was in it. Take the one de-partment of advertising, for instance.There are a good many business men inBed Bank who pay out from $10 to f 100a year in advertising; there are a fewwho pay considerably more than f 100;but of all these bow many of them maketheir advertising do all that it should do?If a man pays $10 or $100 for a job ofwork around his store, he takes care thathe gets as good a job as possible for bismoney; but there are business 'men inRed Bank who agree to pay tor adver-tising spuce. in a newspaper, and who,after making the agreement, ~ give nomore attention to the advertising thanto pay the bills.

# • #I do not think there is a single business

in Bed Bank that could not be increasedfrom teo to fifty per cent by proper andsystematic advertising. This could bedone with comparatively no increase ofCoBt, so that the profits of the businesswould be increased out of all proportionto the increase of business. Rents wouldcost no more, and there is scarcely aBtore in town where ten or even twenty-five per cent more business could not behandled by the same force of clerks, Themain thing is to attract new customersto the store, and this can only be doneby advertising tbo business in BOHIO way.

* « #'

There are many ways of advertising,out of late years newspaper advertisinghas practically superseded all others. Isuppose nine-tenths of all the moneynow spent in advertising ia spent in tbenewspapers; and the mere fact that theshrewdest business men in the country,after trying nil sorts of experiments, nowspend their money almost wholly innewspaper advertising, shows that theyhave found no other method so profita-ble. But newspaper advertising mustbe done with judgment in order to getthe best results,

I think M. M. Davidson gets a greaterreturn for the money spent in advertis-ing than any other man in Bed Bank..His advertisment is changed at leastevery two weeks; and oftentimes it ischanged every week. His advertisementin the paper is made a piece of news con-cerning the clothing business. Peopleare interested in knowing facts aboutclothing the same as they are in know-ing facts about other things, and MrDavidson endeavors to give new informa-tion concerning his business every week.Mr. Davidson payB $60 a year for thespace he takes in THE BEGUSTEB to telltbout his business, and his reading no-ices, e tc , bring bi9 advertising account

to probably $75 per year. If a businessman paid a boy in his store a dollar anda half a week, he would probably seethat be got the beat service possible fromthe boy. He would not be content withseeing that the boy was there ereryweek and paying him on Saturday bight.On the other hand the boy, if he was tberight kind of a boy, would want his em-ployer to get the best service he possiblyiould for the money he paid him,

* * *That's just tbe way it is with an ad-

rertisement'in tbe right kind of a news-paper. The newspaper wants the adver-tiser to get the best possible service forthe money paid out. But the advertise-ment, like the boy, can only do its bestwhen it iB intelligently directed. Theman who spends $60 for advertising inTHE REGISTER, and then does not upendfifty centB1 worth of time in thoentiro yearin preparing his advertisement, does notget all the value he should out of his ad-

ertisemcnt. What he Bays in the adver-tisement is of quite as much importanceas the space the advertisement occupies.While a simple announcement, givingthe nature of a business and its location,no doubt pays the advertiser when apaper has as large a circulation as THEREGISTER, its efficiency would be muchincreased if the advertiser would spendhalf an hour occasionally writing a newannouncement.

« * •

Most papers charge extra for changesmade oftener then once in three inonthB.THE REGISTER does not. I think an ad-vertiser has a right to use bis space justas be wishes; and to use it BO as to getthe best service out of it he can, Withits circulation of over 2,000 copies aweek, which is about twice as large asthat of any other Red Bank paper; withits privilege of changing advertisementsae often as desired; with its exclusion ofpatent medicine and other objectionableadvertisements; and with its steadfastrefusal to publish the annouucemonts offoreign advertisers at less than it chargeshome merchants. TUB REGISTER oilersto the pedplo of Red Bank'and of Mon-mouth oounty hotter service for themoney than any other paper in Mon-mouth.' ' " ' • , , , .,

< . _ . . .••. * » » V C ~ *

Tbero'B one more thing for merchantsto consider. When you see a paper fullof patent modicino advortiBomente andof foreign business men, you can knowthat that paper is taking advertisementsfor a great deal lessAhan it charges thebusiness men of its own place. Patentmodicino advertisements pay as a rulefrom one-third to one-eighth as much aslocal business men pay. Foreign busi-ness men in other lines usually got theiradvertising at from one-half to one-fourth what local men pay. Besidesthat, they demand tho best places in thopaper and they get thorn. I think it iadishonest to chargo a Rod Bonk mer-chant |50 for an advertisement, andthen put in an advertisement of thosutnosize for a Now Yorker, or a patent med-icine man for $10 or $26. Yet that iswhat many papers do, nnd when yousee a paper ailed up with thatolssBOfadvertisements you can bo absolutely cor-tain that that papor la making localbusiness men pay from two to six timesas much as outsiders pay, I consider itno better'than stealing for o nowipapornun to charge a looal advertiser raoro

ttuui u> >/aUSAnr. V *aj m m Utnrt*«e!ve Utrm ut s/i«vaUg«* It ttptild I*MM lock] advertiser, txA ruA tbe outsider,whose onlj-tolerest in the town >» totake as much money out of it as possi-ble.

Business men in making their arrange-ments for next year should consider theadvantages of advertising in a paperwith tin. largest ctrcnlaUon in (h* noun-ty; a paper which goes Into about twiceas many families as any other paper inthis part of the county, and the subscrip-tion list of which is made up of bonafide purchasers; a'paper which does notcompel the business men of Monmouthto compete for advertising space withthe patent medicine men and the CheapJohns of the big cities, and which doesnot charge home merchants severaltimes as much as it does outsiders. Bust-ness men, too, should consider the' ad-vantages of frequent changes in theiradvertisements; a little time spent inpreparing an advertisement is time wellspent, and will bring in a good re-turn. The gaining of new customersIs one of the arts to which each mer-chant should address himself; and if asmuch care be given to this part of thebusiness as to the other departments,the business men of Red. Bank willunquestionably have a prosperous andhappy year in 1891.

HEW YEAR'S CALLS.

l 0 I" 'Wish you a happy How Year, boys 1?"Happy-New Year I" responded three

clear trebles, and the loudest of themaddedt

"Going to make calls to-day, Uncleir

" Of cotirse I am, Johnny," respondedtho rosy, frosty-whiskered, middle-agedgentleman they were talking to, as haopened tbe door qfenf carriage. " Whatana you and your/friends going to d o f

" We're gointf to make calls, too,"sanp;out one of johnny's comrades,—"lieana I and Traoy Plumb."

/" What, to Tom Fitoh going with you ?Where are you going to call ?

" Everywhere," sturdily replied TomFitoh, with a hitch at his neck-tie."All around the blocb."

" Yon are, you, 1 Have you any cards,for places where they're not at home?1''

" Yee, sir, we've cards for everybody."" Indeed I Lot me eeo them,"Uncle Fred's good-humored face was

all a broad grin as hs held out his hand,for the two smaller boys could not havebeen much more than eight years old,and Johnny Roop himself, their headman, was barely ten.-

"I wrote my own cards," eaid Johnny,with proud self -&attaf action, aa ho drag-ged a handful of bits of white paste-board from his coat pocket.

•' Tip-top 1" exclaimed -Uncle Bred;"only you should always spell yourname In one way. Jo-n-ni isn't nearlyas good as J-h-o-n-y, and that one'sJ-o-n-e. But they'll all do." ' .«•

"Mine are better than his," said Tom:"Mother gave me some of her old ones;and so did sister Belle i-SndTracy Plumbhas some of his own father's. Snow 'emto him, Tracy."

"That la grand!" said Uncle Fred." Now you must always send your cardsin ahead of you, 80 they'll know who'scoming."

. He was getting very red In the faceJust then, and the boys did not hear himmatter, as he hurriedly stepped into hiscarriage and drove off:

" MuBn't let them see melaugh. Mightscare'em off it and spoil the fun. Butshouldn't I like to be somewhere whenthose three come in '<"

There were no signs of laughter on thefaoea of Johnny Roop, Tracy Plumb andTom Fitch. It was decidedly a seriousbusiness for them, and they marchedsteadily away up the street.

" Whore'U we call first?' eaid Tom., "Let Johnny tell. He knows," saidTracy."

"There's a basket on Mr. Jones's doorbell, boys. We'll go there tint. That'sto put our cards io."

Up the steps they went, and the bellwas duly rung, but it had to be pul'edagain before any one came to the door.

"Well, thin, what is it 1 What do yizwant?'

"Why, Biddy /'exclaimed Tom, "we'recalling I Didntyou know it was MewYear's day ?'

"It's callln'ye ore ? An' didn't ye Beethe baetit? Mrs. Jones isn't at homethe day."

"Oh I" said Johnny; " she's out mak-ing her own calls, Give Biddy yourcards, boys."

"Howfd on, thin, ivory wan of yiz,till I show her thim cards."

"I thought you said she wasn't athomer

"Dade an' she isn't; but I'd ratherlose me place than not have her Ink atthin. Bhtand where yiz are till I come,"

The Jones family were too near neigh-bors for Biddy not to know those threevery young gentlemen; and in a mo-ment more a nice looking lady up-stairswas saying to herself:

" J-o-n-u-y, Johnny, R-o-o-p-e, Roop,and Miss Arabella Fitch and Mr. Marma-duke Plumb—"

"It's the three b'yea, mum I" ex-claimed Biddy, with her plump sidesshaking with fun. '• Sure, an' it's callsthey're makin'." ;

" Bring them ip, Biddy. Gall up thechildren and bring a plate of cake.Quick as ever you can. Til come right<lown to the parlor."

She was there, sure enough, just intime to hear Tracy say: "There, Tom, Itold you Johnny Roop knew.' And Mrs.Jones wouldn't let Biddy tell storiesabout her."

"Wish you a happy Hew Year, younggentlemen. Have a ohair, Mr. Roop.Please be seated, Mr. Plumb and Mr.Fitch. Our young people will be herein a, moment."

"We're not calling on the children to-day," said Johnny, "but you might letthem come in,"

And in they came, a round half do2enof little Joneses, and Biddy after with abig plate of cake.

"Tom," whispered Traoy, "Johnnysaid we.musn't eat too much in any oneplace."

"I'll put the. rest of mine in mypocket,"

And so be did; but it was a goodwhile before Mrs. Jones got through ask-ing them about their plans for the day,and after that it was hard work to keepBen Jones from going with them. Infact, tho moment they were out of dootaagain Ben sat down in a corner and be.gan to bowl over it, so that he had to•toy in the corner till dinner-time. .

11 Wbere'll we go now, Johnny ?'1 "Judge Curtln's is the biggest houseon the Uock, boys, and ho hasn't anychildren."

"That's tho place. They'll have ice.cream there, see it thoy don't."

But the moment tbo bell of JudgiCurtin's door was pulled the doorewunjopen wide, »nd there stood his biwaiter, in a swallow-tailed coat antwhite cravat, looking down in woodenon bis diminutive guests. It was fa

1 vain tor Johnny Roop to look big one• hold bi* head up as he handed out tin

" I «m acquainted with Mr. Hoop,"said Mrs. Uurtln. u the hell out her•and to htm; "but which of you is Mr.

" Oh, this is just as good. But I mustintroduce you to the company, whilePierre is getting you some refreshments.Plenty of cream, Pierre, and some con-tectiooery.",

"Thst'p it," whispered Tom to Tracy,,nd the latter answered: "Huah, Tomlfohnny knows." '

It was remarkable how very politewere all those tall ladies and gentlemen'.One great, thin, yellow-whiskered man,a particular, kept them so long with

Ills questions that Tom at last felt com-pelled to remark: "Don't talk to himmy more, Johnny; the ico-cream'll beUmelted. • ."So it will," said Mrs. Ourtin. "Do

it them 00, Mr. Grant. Were you neverboy?—I mean a "very young gentle-

man?" >"Never," said Mr. Grant. "I was al-

ways old enough to want to eat mycream before it melted. .Come, boys,'II see you through. I like to associatertth fellows of my own age. Come on."He was very grave and dignified about

t, but between him and Pierre and Mrs,Curtin, Johnny Roop was compelled tosay to his friends:

"We must stop eating, boys, or wean\be polite in the nex.t house." - ,

But be made no objection to Mr. Grantuttiog confectionery in their pockets,ind then the whole company bowedaa'ierre showed them the way to the frontoor. They wondered what he meant1 he smiled in their faces and eaid :" Bon jour, mes enfants.""What's a bunjerf" asked Tom," Johnny knows," began Tracy; but

their leader was thinking of somethingelse just than.

"Can youeat any more boys? I canwo walk a little."thoy said they thougbt.thoy could."Then we'll go to Dr. Micklin's. He

n a corner, nearly, two blocks beyondfudge Curtin's; but the boys were onlyialf sure they were hungry when theying the bell.The door was opened by a gentleman

with a coffee colored face and curly bair,and who could not have been more than

ice as old aa Tom,"Is dey anybody took sick at your

Now Year's calls. Take our cards toMrs. Micklin." ..

"She kaowB my mother," Tom hartBaid to Johnny, "and I'll send in hercard instead of Belle's."

Mrs: Micklin was a little,.black-eyedwoman, with a nose that was almost tooHlmrply pointed, and when the coffee-;olorc?d youth handed her those three;ards her first remark was :

"Julius I JuliUB CtEsar I How oftenhave I forbidden you to laugh in thatway when you come into my presence?Mrs. Fitch? On New Year's day ? Why,what can have happened! And Mr.Marmaduke Plumb with her ? It mustbe something serious. And JohnnyRoop? How I wish the doctor werehere. Show them right in, Julius, andtop that giggling." .She bad bounced from her chair and

'as smoothing the folds of her silk dressnervously as Julius Cresar chuckled hisway back to the front door, and just atthat moment a whole sleigh load ofither callers came hurrying up the

Why, Mre. Micklin," said Tom, " it'sjnly the cards. We passed 'em at Mrs.Jones's and at Judge Curtin's. Only IBent in Belle's there instead of mother's."

"Why, you mischievous boys I Andjere you've frightened me so? I thoughtlomething dreadful had happened—"

But at that moment the other visitorscame pouring in, and Mrs, Micklin hadto say " happy New Year" to them, andshake handB and smile and talk, and thethree boys were almost pushed out ofthe way, while Julius Coesar stood at theparlor door and seemed to be trying tolaugh without making any noise.

"Julius," whispered Tom, as he edgednear him, " whore's the ice-cream 7"

But Tom's whisper was loud enoughto be heard by everybody in the room,for it seemed to Blip into a quiet littleplace in the conversation, and eo didJulius Ceesar's reply : " Dan. ain't none.'

Mrs. Micklin blushed, and one of hergentlemen guests suddenly remarked:

" My dear Mrs, Micklin, I'm delightedto see that you have joined the reformmOvemen t. You won't ask your friendsto stuff themBelvea."

And she Baid something in reply, andthe others said something; but TornFitch put his lips to Johnny's ear andsaid pretty loudly.: " Let's go. There'snothing in this house but med'eine."

" Bow to Mrs. Micklin before you go,"said Johnny ; but everybody in the par-lor, ' excepting "the doctor's wife, waslaughing about something or other whenJulius Coosar opened tbe front door forthoee three boys to go out,

'•Wbere'll we go now, boys?" saidJohnny, when they reached the side-walk.

" Tliero isn't any other plaoe sib goodas Mrs, Curtin's," remarked Tom.
