ABOUT ADVERTISING.

Half the business men visited
by newspapers agents and asked
for advertisements consider the
newspaper men as a kind Of in
Fiction of Providence, which, like
the itch, must take a certain course
before being cured. We wish to
convince all such erroneous think
ers that they are wrong. Tho
newspaper, instead of being a sort
of visitation from the lower world,
is public necessity, and for the
public good. They, instead of
dead-beating their way in the
world, live from money hard
earned, and for which they fire.
quently pay, 10 one way Or ano-
ther, two hundred cents for dol
lar. Business men have made
fortunes, have risen from poverty
to oppulence, simply from the
benefits of the newspapers across
their way. The money the news
papers make is handled by the
men who patronize with their
business advertisements. We have
frequently had men tell us: I'VE
never advertise. It's too much
like throwing away money On
observing their business, we in
variably see their molasses barrel
leaking, their dry goods covered
with dust, their sugar filed with
flies, their scales rusty, their
hands dirty, their finger nails un'
clean, their pants patched, their
customers few and their success
failure. They hobble along in
the world slowly, and are not the
men who rise from poverty and
obscurity to riches and eminence'
Show US a man who advertises
extensively and We will show you
a man who has the qualities es'
sential to business success. The
advertisements placed in papers
are like the kind-heartedness Of
youth, bearing fruit at first and

comes on apace, Then never tell
Us advertising does not pay

WAR IN THE EAST.
Augusta Chronicle.


From our telegrams this morn
ing it will be seen that Admiral
Seymour. was as good as his
word, and that bonn bardment has
been promptly ipaugarated by the
British fleet in the harbor of Alex
aDdria. Directly the cause of the
trouble was the threatening dem
onstration at the forts command
ing the harbor, where the Egyp-
tians, by the flash, lights from the
English ships, we're detected
mounting heavy pieces, and pre-
pairing for the defense Of the
post.
The origin, however of the
present troubles in the Land of
the Pyramids lies in the iron rule
of the Anglo French protecorate,
which the unfortunate financial
condition of Egypt has placed upon
her. The majority of the holders of
Egyptian consols are in France and
England, and the government has
degenerated into receiversbip in
which the payment of interest OF
the foreign bondbolder is the
prime consideration. 1t seems to
be the old history Of English rigor
and English tyranny in India,
where the natives were constrain-
ed so often to rebel against a
foreign protectorate whose only
officer was the tax gatherer and
whose only policy was that of
extortion. The Khedive Of Egypt,
with his Ministry. has been con-
sistently devoted to the payment
of the French and English debt ;
but of late the great body of the
people have grown dissatisfied
with a ruler and council so ab-
sorbed in foreign interests and so
warped by foreign 'nfuence. This
has led to the formation Of q Ma
tional party of which Arab Pa
sha, Minister of War, is the &C.
knowledged leader ; and within
the past Month this faction, which
is opposed to the domination Of
the creditor and the dictation ol
the bondholder, has been practi'
.cally in possession Of the coun
try.
American interest in the war is
remote; and although our Gov
ernment will act with neutrality
tbroghout the whole affair, Aueri
cans do not view with unconcerr
the opening of the strife. So close
Iy allied are the interests Of al
nations now, that hostilities be
tween any two may affect th'
commerce of all. Incidentally,

case assumes a different aspect in
the eyes Of freeman wherever

Of the tide of civilization, and that
of all governments on the earth,
the American model is most stud

tries-from Indus % the Pole Ar
abi Pasha, the leader of the E gyp-
tian revolt, is said TO be close

England, France, Germany and
even Russia are travelling all in
that direction-the former max
ing the strongest and most deter

provinces aud dependencies. And
yet with the durability of her in
stitutions, the strength Of her
navy and the brilliant success of
her armies, Britain will never
storm this great principle of
government into silence. To-day
she is fighting self:goVernment
through the tax gatherer in India,
through the bondbolder in Egypt
and the landlord in Ireland, but

DISPOSSBSSING 4 WIDOW

i have a mind to put up a job
on your client, Truesdell,' said
Charlie Monier to his law partner,
Sam Norton.
4 have observed that you were
becoming demoralized lately, but
lid not suppose you would be
ready to sell out CLIENT replied
Norton. sLet US know, however,
what the job is, and if it has an
innocent look perhaps I will 90 in

Allen Truesdell, against whom
this plot was forming, had been in
the hands of these lawyers only
few weeks. He had lately come
from another part Of the State,
and had been buying, through
them, 9 valuable paper-milI prop
:erty, located on the river few
miles below the city. Monier &
Norton had been his attorneys in
:tbe transaction, and had realized
"a handsome professional fee. In
connection with that business
there had also been some collateral
Transactions through which: sn

sand dollars had come into the
hands of their client. The prop
: ;erty held BY the mortgage was a
handsome homestead, belon giog
to widow lady, Mrs. Trowbridge,
young-or at least not very old
not more than thirty-two-and a
beautiful woman.
Mr.. Truesdell had not yet seen
the property or its owner. The
mortgage had been taken on the
assurance of bis attorneys that
the security was ample.
q. The lady's deceased husband,
Charles Trowbridge, had died sud-
denly three years before, and left
considerable real estate in q badly
!: entangled condition. He had been
q bold, ambitious operator, and
not very prudent; made new pur.
chages> continually with money
s-aised By mortgaging anything on
= which a mortgage could be placed,
until even his family residence,
the property of his wife, had, BY
her consent, reluctantly given,
become involved to the exteat OF
more than half it's real value.
: Mrs. Troworidge had one child
living, her little boy, Ruby, no"
six years old, and for his sake she
had been doing ner utmost to save
what she could ofthe property her
husband left, aud she had man :
aged so successfully thus far that
when a sale was inevitable she
had been able to effect it herself,
and not leave that ceremony to
be performed by the sheriff.
The reader has probably sus-
pected by this time that the job
those lawyers were preparing to
put up on their client was not
likely to be very serious or dam
aging. They had learned from
incidental remarks of his that ne
. had been a widower for several
years and had a family consisting
of Two little daughters and bis
Youngest sister, also a maiden
aunt Of bis deceased wife, who
was managing his family affairs,
but not in a very satisfactory
way.

Very Old Claims.

An effort is to be made at this session to
secure the repayment, by the general govern
ment' of the sums advanced by Maryland
and Virginia for the erection OF public
buildings in Washington when the seat of
government was established in this city.
Maryland advanced $4,000 in 1890, and
nothing was said about repayment until
1912, when the legislature OF Maryland
passed resolutions for the adoption of some
action on the subject. A formal claim was
then presented, and in 1854 the Judiciary
Committee of the House reported in favor
of paving it. A bill tor that purpose passed
the Senate once or twice, but in consequence
of the want of tiulei no action on it was
reat he'd in the House. The matter will
now be revived in behalf Of both States.
