About Advertising

A correspondent of the American
Newspaper Reporter has the following
about advertising:
The man who says he don't believe in
advertising is doing just what he depre-
Gates. He hangs coats outside of his
door, or puts dry goods in his windows
that's advertising.
He mas printed cards lying on his
counter-thst's advertising
He sends out drummels through the
country, or puts his name on his wagon
that's advertising.
If he has lost his COW, he puts a
ritten notice in the post Office, or tells
s sister-in. law--and that's advertising,
too.
He has his name in gilt letters over
the door-what is that but advertising
He paints his shop green or red or,
if tailor, he wears the latest styles; if
a doctor. he has q boy call. him out of
church in haste if an suctioneer, he
bellows to attract the attention of pass.
ers-by it a heavy merchant, no keeps
a pile of boxes on his sidewalk in front
of his stors-and all for advertising.
A man can't do business successfully
without advertising, and the question is
whether to call to his aid the engine that
moves the world-ths printing press,
with its thousands of messengers who
are working by night and by day-orgo
back to the day when newspapers, tele-
grams and railroads were unknown.

ALEXANDRIA BAY, N. Y. Aug, 1879.
H. H. WARNER & Co.: A short time
ago was almost a skeleton from q
chronic kidney disease of long standing,
and was anticipating speedy death, three
of the best physicians in Northern New
York and Canada having treated me
without benefit. l then commenced
taking your Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure, and in two weeks it has complete
ly restored my health and 1 am as
hearty as l ever was My disease had
reduced my weight from $50 to 100
pounds, and it was still lessening when
I commenced taking your medicine. 1
then gaine'l eight pounds in ten days
time. l am astonished at my rapid
cure, and so are others.

Butler on the Chinese.

The following is from the report of
an interview Of "Cal" man with Gen.
(eral Butler:
"No thinking man could have failed
to have seen in the overwhelming ma
jority by which your new Constitution
was adopted, and the way your people
declared against Chinese immigration,
that it was a vital issue with your State,
and must necessarily become one to the
whole Union. The conversion of Mr..
Blame and Judge Thurman, however, is
rather accent. As along ago as the 4,h
of July, 1870, I put myself on record on
this question, and if 1 weie to repeat
the speech to-day, 1 would not change it
in any respect. 1t was at Woodstock,
Connecticut. General Grant, General
Hawley and Henry Ward Beecher were
there. You may remember it. I re-
Gently read that speech over, and it is
quite fresh in my mind. In substance,
l said, that tho true theory of our Gov
eminent contsmplates that any man,
from any part Of the globe, has perfect
right to come to this country, enjoy its
privileges and grow ur under its laws
and protection. the same as any e hi
grant intending to live here and become
q citizen; but it is against the interests
Of the people, and of the Government,
for men to be brought here un-
der contract system by for
ueign companies to interfere with free
labor, and degrade and impoverish our
laboring citizens who have their homes
and families here and intend to remain.
History repeats itself. When African
slavery was introduced into this country
by an American divine, as an act of hu
mainly, no ono saw any danger in the
political horizon, but that small cloud
spread itself out and enveloped us in
q storm and tempest of such awful
magnitude that our institutions almost
went down under it. Nothing but the
faith Of the people saved u.s. The light
of experience teaches US that when an
heterogeneous, an unnatural and un-
productive unexpending-sys-
TEN of labor has been introduced among
us by forced importation, it tends to
raise up two classes Of society, the very
rich and the very poor. What will be
the result of the importation of vast
numbers of men to perform servile
laborl No one ever complained OF the
negro who came here of his own free
will. The Government has sought to
overcome this evil of Monaghan immi-
grafton by appointing commission to

the Burli..game treaty. The commits

DIR. TANNER INVISIBLE TO FRYING EYES, BUT
SAID TO BE CALAMITY MAKING UP FOR
LOST TINE.
NEW YORK, August 10.-Dr. Tanner was
invisible TO the mutitudes who called at
the residence OF DIR. Gum to see him. 1t
was said that he was "taking rest" DIR.
Hulda A. Campbell (who Is a female) met
most OF the visitors at DIR. Gums house
with n pleasant smile, and with another
smile informed them OF the ex-faster's i'm
pregnsbe seclusion. "This fast" said
she TO n reporter, "was made in the
interest OF science, and the Doctor
Is no longer upon exhibition. We are
keeping q record OF the changes In his con-
dition, but we do not think 1t worth while,
neither have we the time, TO go into details
for the benefit OF each Of the newspapers"
What the Doctor eats is, however, freely
made known TO the public. He eats every
hour.
His skin. the doctors who are admitted TO
his presence say, is regainng irs natural
color, and his eyes are growing bright again.
His brother-in law hustled about the resi-
dence OF DR.. Gum throughout the day and
informed everybody that be was very proud
Of bis relative.
DR.. Gum Is still busily engaged in pre-
pairing the history Of the for:y days fast,
and DR.. Tanner takes lively interest in the
preparation OF the work. 1t is reported
and believed by some that DR.. Tanner will
open an office in New York for the practice
OF medicine according to HIS new and i'm.
proved ideas before long. Among the visit
ors at DIR. Gunn's house was an aged gentle
man from Texas. who announced that he
had made the long journey from bis distant
home for no other purpose than to have an
interview with the man OF the remarkable
stomach, and who further declared that he
would have the interview II he had TO re-
main away from home month.
The " Manhattan Elevated. Railway Ath-
letic Club" conducted several walking and
runniDg.races at The Rink, on Third ave-
nue. and Siyty-thiTd street, yesterday after
noon and evening. The attendance was
small. Notwithstanding the report that
DR.. Tanner would IN the evening be pres
ent. DR.. Tanner was not present. The
Club had prepared for him several choice
arrangements Of flOwers-bcautiiu though
somewhat funeral in form, since one OF
them consisted OF a pillow OF white flowers,
across which was written in yiolets the word
"Rest," the pillow being surmounted by a
white crOss-and in the Doctors failure TO
appear they were reserved, as well as 4
silver card-receyer, for the winner OF ten
hours $50 As you please"
