Benefits Of Advertising.

Bread is the staff of life, so is adj
vertising the staff of business. '
Blessed are they who do not adyer-
tise, for they shall rarely be troubled
with customers.
You can't eat enough in week to
last you year, aud you cant adver-
tise on that plan either.
Business can 20 without advertis-
ing,so can wagon go without greas-
ing, but in both cases it is hard work.
No bells ring so loud as u good ad-
vertisement, people are moro apt 10
heed what they read than what they
hear.
Those who take the lead in pushing
their business through the newspa-
pers, generally take the lead in every
thing else.
Ifyou don't mean to attend to
your business, and prefer slender
income while your neighbors grow
rich, it won't pay to advertise.
Judicious advertising is sure to
bring large returns, to increase your
business reputation, to add to your
acquaintance.
If you haven't business, advertise
Ii you have business, advertise. 1t is
poor rule that won't work both
ways. A place well advertised is
known 10 many, while one not ad.
vertised is known only to afew pass
ers by.
Quitting advertising in dull times
is like pulling down dam when the
water is low. When trade revives, II
will rush by him who does not stay il
with ready customers. The way TO
have such always ON hand is through
advertising.

A colored Editor Killed.
lRichmoni Regls,er.l

w. w. Embry, the son offs color
ed woman who lived in Richmond a
number of years ago, was shot and
killed in Leavenworth, Kansas, .one
day last week. Embry was a native
OF this place, and left here about the
beginning of the war. He went to
Kansas, and the color line in his
makeup was SO indistinct that he east
ly passed for a white man. Indeed,
up to the day of his death few people
in Leavenworth, where he made his
home, knew of his origin. In Leavei-
worth, since the war, he has been the
editor of a Democratic newspaper, and
was in frequent broils. In one Of
these he shot and very seriously
wounded Col. Anthony, a brother Of
Susan B. Anthony, and the editor Of a
Radical paper in the same city. AT
the time of his death Embry was en-
gagged in publishing a Sunday paper,
in connection with a white man named
Thos. G. Thurston. The two part
ners were engaged in playing cards in
! saloon in Leaveuworth, when dis
pute arose over the game. Embry ad-
vanced on Thurston with a poker,
when the latter drew his pistol and
fired. Embry fell mortally wounded,
and died in a few seconds. The
deceased was noted as quarrelsome,
dissolute fellow. and of no particular
merit. 1Ni} * 2 p YAH

Battle Of the Hyenas.

There was savage fight not long
ago, in the hyena den on Col. Burt
Robbins farm near GAINESVILLE, Wis,
a report Of which we find in local
journal. Robbins winters his circus
and menagerie on the farm here, and
five hyenas have passed through the
season together, behaving themselves
as becomes good, peaceable hyena
until last night, when they held
''highena'' carnival among them
selves. They went at each other with
sharpened teeth. glazing eyes, and
fairly made things hideous with their
growls of anger. One of their number
had his nose literally chewed off clear
up close to the eyes; also enc fore paw
munched off by his mercilesS brother
and sister hyenas. The fight is said
by all showmen that witnessed the
bloody affair, to have been one of the
fiercest ever seen in a menagerie
The hyena having his paw and nose
bitten off kept up the fight as best
he could with three paws and minus
a nose, until bullet was sent into
him, thus ending at once his misery
and quelling the conflict.

ADVICE TO A YoUNG MAN.-And
then remember, son, that the world is
older than you are by several years
that for thousands OF years il has been
SO full ofsmarter and better young
men than yourself that their feet
stuck out OF the dormer windows;
that when they, died the old globe
went whirling on, and not one man
in ten million went to the funeral or
even heard of the death, BE as smart
as you can, of course. Know as
much as you can, without blowing
the packing out of your cylinder
heads, shed the light of your wisdom
abroad in the world, but don't dazzle
people with il. Aud don't imagine
u thing is so simply because you say
il is. Don't be too sorry for your
father because he knows so much
less than you do. Your clothes fit
you better than your fathers fiji him,
they cost much more money, they are
more stylish; your mustache is neater,
the cut ofyour hair is better, and you
are prettier, oh, far prettier than pa"

mental, and we all love them, and we
couldn't engineer a picnic success
fully without them. But they are no

the kind. They have been here before.
Don't be so modest as 10 shut yourself
