How ADVERTISING PAYs.--There have
been many eminent men who have made
their hundreds of thousands of dol irs by
advertising. Here is the opinion of a
few we'll known names culled at random
from scores of others which we might
cite:
"Without advertisements should be q
poor man to.day.'-H. T. Helmbold.
"My success is owing to my liberality
in advertising. Bonner.
"Advertis!ng has furnished me with o
competence. Amos Lawrence.
81 advertised my products and made
money."-N. Longwor.h.
"Constaut and persistent advertising
is sure prelude to wealth. ."-Stepher
Girard.
"He who invests one dollar in business
should invest one dollar in advertising
that business "A. T. Stewart.
"The man who pays more for shop
rent than for advertising, don't under

THE RIVER AMAZON.

Let Us, following in brief abstract the

prominent characteristics Of this great

limits Of perpetual snow For 500 miles
it flows swiftly through deep valley.
Then, turning sharply eastward, it runs
1900 miles acro,s the equatorial plain.
Two thousand miles above its mouth its
width is mile and half, to more than
ten miles at the head OF the delta, where
it divides, an after running 1000 miles,

attitude every river that flows down the
eastern slope of the Andes is an afluent

rivers from Mexico to Oregon united their
