It depends largely upon what it is that Is
advertised temper and feeling of the
public toward the subject mater, whether
the advertiser can afford to steal in upon
the readers attention by the use of some
favorite quotation-or riding in upon some
current topic of discussion. Some adver-
tisers have run against fatal snag trying
to initiate the method of DR.. Bulls Baby
Syrup, Cough Syrup, ETC., in this class Of
advertising, meeting with disgust and re-
buke The fact is the advertiser, when he
enters in this way the presence of the read
er unbidden, must carry with him his own
welcome, this unceremonious manner of
approach pre-supposes certain favorit-
ism. A popular pastor of one of our city
churches recently made alluson from the
pulpit to DR.. Bulls Cough Syrup as illus
trating how dear medicines even become
to US when known to alleviate the ais and
ills of life. There must be truth and merit
when the advertiser can shake hands with
such high company.-[ Indianapolis Jour

There is a game called golf almost pecu-
liar to Scotland, though also frequently
played upon Blackheath, involving the
use of very small, hard, elastic ball,
which is driven from point to point with
a variety of wooden and iron clubs.
In the North it is played for the most
part upon downs (or links) near the sea,
where there is usually abundance of rab-
bits. One of the troubles of the golf
player is the little hole which the rabbit
makes in the sward in its first efforts at q
burrow; this is commonly called rab-
bits scrape, or simply scrape. When
the ball gets into scrape it can scarcely
be played. The rules of most golfng
fraternities, accordingly, include one in
dicating what is allowable to the player
when he gets into scrape. Here, and
here alone, as far as is known to the
writer, has the phrase direct and intel
ligible meaning.

Three Giant Telescopes.
TTondon Timaai

Three projects are at present on foot
which severally promise to increase the
range OF our telescope survey of space.
The first is the American scheme for
erecting an observatory somewhere in
the Rocky Mountains, and planting
there, high above the denser and more
disturbed strata of the atmosphere, the
most powerful telescope that can be
made. This scheme, projected by Mr..
Lick, the more than millionaire of San
Francisco, is at present, so far as can be
judged from American reports, in nubi-
bus-as some say the observatory itself
will nearly always be, if erected where
proposed. The second project for an
increase Of telescope range is Of British
invention, and involves the construction
of four-foot mirror, not of metal like
the four-foot mirror constructed by
Lassell, and the yet mightier mirror Of
the great Rosse telescope at Parsonstown,
but Of silvered glass; and it is believed
that the lightgathering power Of such q
mirror would be greater than that of the
Rosse telescope, while, of course, it
would be far more manageable. The
third scheme for q very powerful tele-
scope is neither 80 novel nor 20 far-seeing
as Sir Fl. Bessemers The Russian Gov
ernment proposes to arm the Poulkowa
Observatory with a refracting telescope
exceeding in size the great telescope Of

Greek Dream Doctors.
Temple Bar.

Ieiupl6 bhr.
Setting aside the imagery Of the Greek
poets and the opinions of their merely
speculative philosophers, we find that
dreams were considered of such import
ance in the common life of the Greeks
that one of the learned professions was
that of Oneirocritics, or Interpreters Of
dreams. A Greek would probably con-
suit one of these men as naturally as he
would a lawyer or doctor, and no doubt
oftener; for the oneirocritics were very
qadly paid at Athens, and there was no
heavy fee ".to open the eyes" of the
dreamer. Thus we are told of man
who dreamed that he saw an egg hanging
from the tester of his bed.
Being sorely exercised at the unwonted
vision, he repaired to the oneirocritic,
who informed him, as a wise and ready
interpreter, that there was a treasure
under his bed. He Immediately set
digging, and to his great joy, found some
gold set round with silver. He gave the
oneirocritic some silver in payment flor
his information, but the sage asked,
"Was there no gold? If not, what
meant the yolk of the egg?" Artemido-
rus, another Ephesian, seems to have
spent the best of his days in reducing
dreams to the obedience of exact rules
but with very little success. He said
that all true dreams foretold some good
or evil; that to dream of chain, meant
wife or hindrance; and to dream of the
"belly," meant children, for they cry for
meat

Tilden in regard TO the Southern delegates

that the Democratic leaders of Tennessee,
who in 1876 were body and soul for
Thomas A. Hendricks, have for some time
been in favor of Tldens nomination. The
question that their respect for Tilden has
been strengthened by the developments
through his ci her dispatches is not to be
entertained, and there must be other
ringing grounds for this conversion.
