JuplcIous ADVERTISING. = Everybody

engaged in any sort Of business, where
the public are supposed to patronize or
have any interest in the matter, should
invariably advertise. 1t is a popular
fallacy with many people, where they do
not see benefits directly and unmistaka-
bly, resulting from an advertisement,
that it does no good, but is that much
unnecessary expense. They do not re-
alizc the fact that judicious advertising
gives them a legitimate status in the
community which they would not other
wise enjoy. 1t is simply u shrewd BUSH
ness idea on the part of business man.
Outsiders look upon it as such. People
from the country coming to town to make
their customary purchases, have read
the papers, aud therefore, before they
leavlhome, they know just whom they
are going to trade with. You never
catch them trading with those who never
advertise. They don't look upon such
aslegitimate traders. Even about town,
n man who is posted, always drinks only
at those saloons which he has seen ad-
vertised and mentioned in the paper, for
he feels very sure that those who fail to
advertise are poor business managers,
and must water and otherwise aduiter-
ate their whisky, in order to make up
: for the loss OF custom they sustain IN
Snot advertising, and keep even with
their more liberal neighbors who do.
Gold Killers visiting Virgini" only trade
with those whose advertisements they
have read in the GoLp HILL News,
yircinians visiting Gold Hill always
read the News first in order TO get pro-
perlv posted. Our advertising columns
recommend themselves to the specia'
consideration of all true business men'
"a word to the WISE etc.
UNSETTLED Hur NOT DASGERous.-The
great body of debris filling the hole IN
B street, created by the recent cav IN
the Chollar-Potosi mine, still continues
settling slowly, and workmen are busy
filling /, in with the waste rock from
the dump near by, n track being laid,
and cars running for that purpose.
As we stated when the hole was hrst
filed in, it was bound TO settle con-
siderably, and indeed we look to see
i. settle ten or fifteen feet farther, as
workmcn are employed in blasting out
and otherwise removing the tmoering
which still remains beneath the great
mass "that's what's the matter now.
The removal of these timbers VIII also
allow il to settle to the bottom oil the
mine. which il must inevitably do. AS
10 those other localities in Virginia
where the surface over he mines has
been settling constantly for the past four
wears, we would simply reiterate what
we have said before: he surface VIII
continue settling at the same rate as
long rs mining is carried on beneath,
but there will be no more sudden caves,
such as have occurred in the past VIC
say this from the personal knowieuse
we lave of the underground Workings
of most of the mines, and not from any
interested desire to keep residents over
those localities from getting Just as
frightened as they please. Virginia IS
very much undermined, therefore we
wonld advise all who are afraid to live
there 10 move down 20 Gold Hill, where
they will find q safe abiding place, make

SINGING is a great "institution.' 1t
oils the wheels Of care and supplies Inc
place of sunshine. 4 man who sings
has n good heart under his shirt'tront'
Sncb n man not only works more will
liuCly, but he works more constantly
Asinciug cobbler will earn twice as much
money as a cordwainer who gives way
TO low spirits and investigation. Ava
REGIONS men never sing. The man who
attacks singing throws u stone at tne
head of hilarity, and would, if he could,
rob June of its roses and August OF It's
meadow-lalks. Singing promotes heaitn'
strengthens the voice, the organs OF the
throat and lungs, and prevents or cures
consumption. Singing is an exeeiien'
agent for promoting mental hygiene.

THE USES OF CHARcoAL.-Ruooing
the teeth, and washing out the mouth
with fine charcoal powder, will render
the teeth beautifully white and the
breath perfectly sweet, where an otfen-
siye breath has been owing to q scor.
butte disposition of the gums. Putrid
water is Immediately deprived OF its bad
smell by charcoal. When meat, nsh'
etc., from intense heat or long keeping,
are likely to pass into n state OF corrnp-
ton, a simple and pure mode OF keeping
them sound and healthful is by putting
a few pieces Of charcoal, each the size
of an egg, into the pot or saucepan in
which the flesh or fish is to be boiled.
