Until within'a iew'ycars, the great diff.
Guilty to be overcome in the introduction Of
sewing machines, was the objections made
by manufacturers and operators to the then
popular threads. Thee complaints were
50 loud and well founded that the sale Of
sewing machines was greatly impcded on
account Of the impossibility Of obtaining u
thread adapted to their use, Mr.. George A.
Clark, approaching the difficulty, into
duced into The American market the now
famous Clarks 40. N.iTh Spool Cotton, all
numbers being six cord, from s to l00,which
met the demand, did away will, all COM
plants, and long since established is rert'-
tation o. the best thread in use Tor sewing
machines or hand sewing. To Mr.. George
A. Clark belongs the credit Of being the
first TO supply those fine qualities Of Six
Cord Spool Cotton with which his name is
associated. The thread is used and rCOm-
inended by agents Of the Singer, Wheeler &
Wilson, Gtovcr& Baker, Domestic, Howe,
Florence, Weed, Wilson, bees, Remington,
Secor, Home, Lathrop and other sewing ma:
chine companies. The superior quality Of
Clark's 10. y. .nSpool COttoG soon SC
cured for it an immCnsc sale, but with the
great popularity Of the goods came also
countcrieils which made it necessary for
the manufacturers to adopt n trade mark
for their own and the, pnGlic's protection,
aud now upon every, genuine spool Of their

PREPARING FOR WAR

The order issued in the Prussian army
is significant part Of the days news.
1t forbids officers on the active list from
taking service in the Russian army.
This implies that their is some more or
less active movement of that sort on
foot with Prussian officers, and that all
others may take service except those on
the active list. 1t also implies that the
authorities in Berlin, though resolved
not TO spend thaler Of German money
unnecessarily, nor to venture in the
quarrel between Russia and Turkey "a
single bone of a Pomeranian soldier"
are yet so uncertain of the direction
events may take that they deem it nee
essary to keep their actual army in
thoroughly effective condition. 1t is
not in the remotest degree possible that
any strictly German interest can be in
volved while the war retains the char
acter Of a conflict strictly between the
two nations. But their night be a re-
volt in thelPolish provinces Of Russia.
which Germany, out If regard to her
own tranquility, would doubtless be
willing to suppress. Austria may also
forget discretion so far as to be led away
by the Hungarian enmity to Russia. In
either Of these contingencies It would
be proper 10 have the Prussian army
ready.

'THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TREE
IN THEWORLD."

We had thought that newspaper ex-
poSures had destroyed the Paulowina
man Of Ohio; but before us is he again
with his advertisements, headed as above
in full blast. For the sum of one dollar
you can have a tree "by mail" that you
could perhaps get from any respectable
nursery for a quarter.
1t is very interesting to read this adver-
tisement and note how people may be de-
ceived, and yet not by the advertiser. The
advertiser does not deceive. 1t is no de-
ception in that sense of the word.
1t is merely h'msbug-as Barnum says,
the buyer deceives himself and it is his
own fault. We are told, for instance,
that ''many regard it to excel the lovely
southern magnolia" which is quite likely
for there are many who would prefer a
perslmmon to peach. Then ''seventy-
i've to one hundred splendid blue flowers
grow in single cluster" which is true.
though splendid blue is about the blue of
skinned milk. Then ''they are as large
as the largest morning glory, with tex
ture as fine as tulip, and the fragrance as
That of white lily" Now, this is no Or
dlnary combination. Asouthern magnol-
la, a morning glory, tulip and lily,al
combined in one, and all for dollar,
Now, everybody who knows the Pau
lewnia knows that it is very common
place-looking thing. 1t is the blu-iSh,
the petals are of slime texture" the size
is as that of morning glory" and there
Is fragrance to the flowers; the tree
does ''grow fast" and the leaves are large
and yet we venture to say that one in a
hundred who would buy the tree on pub
ished description would feel very much
disappointed. He would not be deceived
but he would feel humbugged. \ tree or
