REVIEW or THE WEEK.

so,,p ADyERTIsING CoLUMNs.--Our read
avs must have observed for some weeks
mast the evidences of an increased patron
20 in the columns of the STAR. We are
dnlv tbankful.for this kind confederation
~ the part Of our friends. At the same
time that we are benefited, we trust our
,atrons will feel that the advantages are
mutual, as they enjoy an unprecedented
circulation for their wares and commodities,
and a publicity for professional and me-,
chanical pursuits that cannot fail to be re-
munerative. The advantages of advertis-
inc no sensible man now donbts, An adj
yertisement, properly worded, jndicionsly
displayed, and inserted in the journal that
will give it the greatest circulation amon@I
those for whom it is designed, win assuredly
he q rood Investment In these days, all
that can read at all read newspapersr;p par
ticularly weekly newspapers, which invite
by the attractiyeness, variety and solidity
of their contents. If, then, a man wishes
TO establish reputation in business, let
him advertise, that he may secure public
patronage. If he has already acquired a
reputation through which he has numerous
customers, let him still advertise, that he
may retain his hold on them-for the pro-
verb will hold in this as in everything else,
"out of sight-out of mind" The name of
a constant advertiser becomes almost a
household word in the families of general
readers. Advertising may be said to be
the keystone in the arch of prosperity.
The superstructure of success is based on
three things, then, namely: Advertise judi
ciously -adyertise extensively = advertise
constantly-in the MORNING STAR.
SANITARY CONDITION OF THE CIrY.-In
the present conflict of authority between
three separate parties, the city is placed in
a deplorable dilemma. The rains which
this season have followed each other in
such rapid succession have rendered many
portions in the rear almost uninhabitahle,
and to make matters still worse, the COM
plications above alluded to have had the
effect of stopping the operations of the
Drainage Conimissioners-or at least ham,
pering them in their efforts to prevent am
overflow similar to that from which the
unfortunate inhabitants of that region are
but just recovering. We do not intend to
enter into an argument about the rights of
the several parties claiming control; we
only know that immense damage, both to
health and material prosperity must in.
