New York Sun. Grocer—How it it, Mr. Swartman.that you are so particular to pay cash nowadays? You used to pay a weekly bill. Customer—l know I did, and you would always give me a cigar when I squared up Saturday night. Grocer —Yes. Customer—Well. it was smoking that cigar that impelled me to pay cash. Beauty and sadness always go together. Nature thought beauty Tod rich to go forth upon the earth without a meet alloy. —[George Macdonald.
