IF YOU WISH TO REACH CONSUMERS.

ALWAYS BEFORE THE PUBLIC,

while the daily paper is old in one day, and the weekly in seven, the magazine is fresh and new for a month, after which it is frequently kept for years, and finally in a bound volume, takes its place among the standard works on the library shelf. It is seldom, or never, that the magazine finds itself consigned to the waste basket.

DOES ADVERTISING PAY?

The proprietors of a household article recently informed the publishers of a well-known monthly magazine of large circulation that the insertion of a small advertisement twice in the pages of their magazine had brought in more than eight thousand inquiries. And yet some people are still wondering if newspaper and magazine advertising pays?

OUR LITTLE ONES

July,

A PICTURE.

Dainty little Marguerite, Tripping down the stair, With the dancing sunlight In her golden hair,

Through the open doorway, In the sunny brightness, Where the morning-glories Nod in airy lightness.

Mamma, coming downwards, Sees her darling stand, Snowy ruffled apron Held in either hand,

Making stately courtesy With a childlike grace, And a reverent brightness On her upturned face.

"What art doing, baby?" Called the mother's voice, While the pretty picture Made her heart rejoice.

Morning-glories kissed the curls The open brow adorning, As the little maid replied, "I'm wishing God good morning."

JACK BARLOW.

NAUGHTY NASNA.

Nasna was a coati-mondi, a cousin of the raccoon family. She was about the size of a cat, with thick, coarse fur, brown on the back and sides, and shading from yellow to orange underneath. She had a head and four legs, and a fat body; but the two most important parts of her, in her own opinion at least, were her nose and her tail. The tail was certainly very handsome, long, and bushy, with black and yellow rings round it. The nose was long, too,--long and sharp, and always poking, poking itself everywhere. There never was such an inquisitive nose. Now it was lifting the lid of a pot on the kitchen fire , and scalding itself with the steam; now it was sniffing at a bottle of strong ammonia, without seeming to be troubled in the least by the smell; now it was in her master's pocket, trying to find out what it was that went "Tick! tick!"

The old cat had been asleep beside the kitchen fire. She had had a long, long nap,--the sleepy old cat,--and when she woke up she felt that she needed a long, long stretch before she was quite herself again. Now, the way in which the old cat stretched herself was this: she put her four feet close together, and humped her back just as high as she could possibly hump it; then she stretched herself, and opened her mouth to its fullest extent, and said, "Mu-aw-yu-aouw!"
