What Advertising Did.

MILLAUD, the banker and newspaper
speculator who died recently in Paris,
and who founded the Paris Petite Journal.
which at one time had daily circulation
of nearly half million copies, was an
enthusiastic believer in the advantages OF
liberal advertising. One day he had at
his table nearly all The proprietors of the
leading Paris dailies. They conversed
about advertising. Millaud asserted that
the most worthless articles could be sold in
vast quantities, if literally advertised.
Emil de Girardin, of La Presse, who was
present, took issue with him on the sub
ject. ''What will you bet," exclaimed
Millaud, that cannot sell in one week
one hundred thousand francs worth of
the most common cabbage-seed under the
preteXt that it will produce mammoth cab
bage-heads? All l have to do is to adver-
tise it at once in whole page insertion in
the daily papers of this city" Girardin
replied that he would give him page in
his paper for nothing if he should win
his wager. The other newspaper pub
fishers agreed to do the same thing. At
the expiration of the week they inquired
of Millaud how the cabbageseed had
f1ourished. He showed them his books
triumphantly, and satisfied them that he
had sold nearly twice as much as he had
promised, while orders were still pouring
in; but he said the joke must stop there;
and no further orders would be filled.

An Investment for the People.

The First Mortgage Bonds of the North
ern Pacific Railroad present attractions
which should not be overlooked by any
one having money to invest. Unlike any
other railroad bonds in the market, they
are secured on valuable lands, worth
three or four times the amount of Bonds
issued, as well as upon the great North
ern Railroad across the Continent whose
business in the future must be enormous
ly large and profitable. Fifty million
acres of the best lands in the Northwest
were granted by Congress to this Road,
and these are all held for the benefit OF
the bondholdcrs, it being provided in the
charter that the proceeds of all land-sales
must be applied to the purchase and can.

tiers arc already buying these lands at O
rapid rate, and as their market value
must continually rise with the progress OF
the road and the extension of settlements
there can be no doubt that the Northern
Pacific Bonds are as amply secured as any
other mortgage on real estate As tC

rate OF $40 per cent. in gold, returning

A Much Married Woman.

A WRITER contributes to the columns of
the Chester, Pa, Republican, an article on
"Tony Weller's Widows" from which
we extract the following
" Another very courtable widow was a
young lady, of Washington, Pa. She
became engaged to a young man named
Robert -, IN 1916. Her father, how
ever, objected to this match with one of
his clerks, and when the young lady re-
ceived tempting proposal from wealthy
suitor the paternal influence soon effected
marriage, despite the previous engage
ment. In less than three months her
husband was killed by kick from horse
Robert was a second time then a suitor,
but delayed, the important question until
fifteen months had elapsed, when, to his
horror, she informed him that she was en-.
gagged. In three months thereafter she
was married. Two years elapsed, when
the married couple removed TO Syracuse,

cholera, when the pestilence swept thai

The Waste and Folly of Cold Barns.

WHAT showing would the cost of winter
feed of his animals make on the account
book, if the farmer keeps one? He
would find that u large proportion of his
feed had become dissipated in the frozen
air of the north winds ; that good por-
ton of hay or corn had gone to melt ice
or snow and evaporate cold rain-water,
and that what was left after these things
had been done, had barely suficcd to keep
life in his beasts. For in This case phllos-
ophy, or science, or bcok-knowledge-c
it what you willis thoroughly corrobor-
ated by practice.
If two beasts are fed alike, except that
one is kept well stabbed, and the other out
of doors, exposed to the cold, the one thus
| exposed will consume just double the
amount that the other will, and will be in
worse condition beside. Every man who
| keeps COW knows this to some extent,
though he may not know the exact figures.
Here we give them-they are the result oi
a careful experiment made by trust
worthy feeder, viz: Two lots of sheep (oi
five each) were selected, of equal weights
and conditions. One lot was kept out OF
doors and unsheltered, the other kept in {
close pen. The lot unsheltered ate 1,9l.
pounds of turnips, against SS6 pounds eat
en- by the other LOT. The gain in weight wa;
23 pounds per head in the first, % pound:
per head in the second. The profit car
be figured out by any man who know:
what turnips and mutton are worth. Hat
not the feeding been abundant some ol
the exposed sheep would have died Ant
yet sheep will stand more exposure thar

tle Notwithstanding all this, every win
ter's day one may see young calves hump

troit, Michigan. A few years elapsed,
when herself and husband were on
steamer which was wrecked near Buffalo
The husband perished and the wife es-
capped solely through the eXertions of a
friend who was on board. His gallantry
inspired such sentiments in her breast
that she married her brave preserver a
few months after her third widowhood
The happy pair removed to Pittsburgh,
where the husband was engaged in mer-
camille business. Thither Robert, still
cherishing his first love, followed them.
One day as he was passing the husbands
store he saw terrible commotion. Rush
ing in, he beheld the manglcd corpse of
that gentleman on the floor. A tierce of
rice, in being hoisted to an upper story,
had fallen through the traps, killing him
instantly. Anxiously Robert inquired if any
one had been sent TO inform his wife, and
was told that the book-keeper had just
gone. Robert started for Allegheny City,
where the deceased had resided, at the
top of his speed The book-keeper was
just ahead of him, and from past expert
ence, knowing the virtue of prompt ac-
ton, and apprehending that the clerk had
designs on the widow, he ran for dear
life, side-by-side. The race continued
until they reached Hand street bridge,
when the clerk was obliged to stop and
pay the tolls, while Robert, commuter,
passed over without stopping. Reaching
the house of the widow first, Robert told
the heart-rending news, and in the same
breath made a proposal of marriage. He
was accepted. True to her promise, after
year of mourning she became his wife.
As all her husbands had died wealthy,
Robert was comfortably fixed after all.
This case is a remarkable example of
what pluck and perseverance will do for
a man, while at the same time it teaches
lesson on the danger of delay"
