GIVE 1T A TRIAL!

To those who wish to communicate with the

chants, Manufacturers, Business Men, Me-

and the South generally, the WEEKLr UNION
AND AMERICAN, with its large circulation, pro-
sents most desirable medium.
Does 1t Pay to Advertise =?
If you have any doubts about It, the only
way to find out is to give it fair trial, and as
certain whether it does or not.
From every section of the country come tes-
timonials of the advantages derived from q
well regulated system of advertising. A surer
or safer investment for business men cannot
public in beneficial light; ''tifey become
known and read Of all men," and reap an
abundant harvest from the seed thus soWn
There can be no doubt of the fact; patrons de-
clare it; newspapers assert Ii, and experience
cOnclusiyely proves Ii. Here are a few cases
gathered from various sources illustrating this
point:
DO You Believe Advertising Paysa
Ask Helmbold, who takes q whole page of
four or five New York dailies and fills them
with advertisements Of his Buchu. These cost
him in the neighbOrhood of q thousand dollars
each for one day. Think of this, merchants,
mechanics and manufacturers, while you sit in
your Offices and wonder that your more enter
prtsing neighbOrs are enlarging their business,
building palatial residences, andlguiding spank-
ingfeams along our thoroughfares. They make
their money by telling the people, through our
columns of newspaper, that they are in bust
ness, and would be glad to wait on them. Yes
You had better believe advertising pays.

The same paper adds: There is in this re-
mark an assurance of one of the many results
of advertising The trader and his calling be-
come identified, and the name of the man is in
separately connected in the mind of the public
with his merchandise. 1t may not be the very

A FAMILY MEDICiNE.-We call the special at
ten ton of our readers to the advertisements OF
that fayorte home medicine, Perry Davis pain
killer. 1t has been before the pnblic over thirty
years, and probably has a wider and better repu-
tation than any other proprietary medicine of the
present day. At this period there are but few
unacquainted with the merits of the pain killer
but little of its power in easing pain when taken
internally, while others use it internally with
great success, but are equally ignorant of its
healing virtues when applied externally. We
therefore, wish to say to all that it is equally
successful whether used internally or externally,
and it stands to-day, unrivalled by all the great
catalogue of family medicines. 1t is sufficient
evidence of its virtues as a standard medicine,
to know that it is now used in all parts OF the
world and that its sale is constantly increasing
No curative agent has had such widespread
sale or given such universal satisfaction. 1t is
purely vegetable compound, and perfectly
safe, even in unskillfu hands

MCFARLAND.-The Sacramento Union of a late
date has the following pertinent and sensible re.
marks in reference to this individual
great deal of mock sympathy has been
thrown away upon this individual, and particu-
larly since his acquittal. Much has been said
about his wounded honor, the tenderness of his
feelings and the distress of his mind at being
separated from his wife. We venture to say
that most of his distress could be allev;ated by
a resort to the social cup, which was his great
comforter before there was any open trouble on
the subject of his marital relations, and when
his wife was at home doing all she could for his
comfort, and receiving but little more than the
grossest abuse at his hands. To show the deli
cacy of his feelings, it is only necessary to call
to mind the fact of his going TO Brick Pomeroy s
Democrat, where he offered to sell to the editor
in-chief certain papers for $lOO, which would
blazon his wife's so-called s'infamy" to the
world; the wife, too, whom he loved so desper.
atey and fondly that an acute fit of his mental
disease attacked him whenever he heard her
name mentioned in connection with Richard.
sons. Mcfarland thought he would have his
remedy, with hundred dollars in his pocket
and a copy of the Democrat containing the cor
respondence. We have but little patience with
such representatives of fine and honorable feel.

Truth Stranger than Fiction.

This generation has witnessed astounding
scenes. During the last thirty years startling
events and unlooked-for developments have fol-
lowed with the rapidity of the drama Thirty
years ago Louis Napoleon was vagabond wan

the supreme ruler over forty millions of people
and may establish dynasty to last for centuries
to come. Taking the Eastern States as a stand
point, the bowling wilderness beyond the ALLIE
ganies, where the thistle nodded in the wind,
and the wild fox dug his hole unscared, has be-
come a very seat and center of civilization pos
sessing all that adorns and embellishes civilized
life. Thousands of miles of railroads, at that
time almost unknown, now spread a network of
communications over all the land. What was
the Pacific railroad twelve years ago? A posi-
bility in the far distant future. At that time no
one expected to witness its completion. An
Oriental story-teller, drunk with hasheesh,
might tell Of land and submarine telegraphic

simpletons to listen and believe? Where was

hood suffrage and the coming abolition of the
peerage - these among the remarkable
changes now taking place. What next, is i'm
possible to say. Every faculty of the human
mind seems to be quickened into utmost activity.
Nowadays nothing is too strange for belief
no statement too prepostcrous to lack advocates.
Erial lines of navigation and freight trains to
speed at one hundred miles an hour is what we
want now. Will anybody say it's impossible.
Could one of the old-tashioned, good old souls
who wore homespun and feared their maker in
the days of stage coaches and honest simplicity
revisit this earth and take a comprehensive en-

tear he would sum up thus In religion the
tendency is toward disbelief, in politics to re-
publicanism, in mode of living to extravaganza
in intercourse between man and man, to descep-
tion and dishonesty, and that of things gener-
ally to eternal smash.
