pat+;unore is the nearest of all the larger
,Iantic cities to the Southern states,
aud its merchants and business men are
tho least known. while the names OF many
of the leading houses of Boston, Ne"
York and Philadelphia, and even chicago
and Cincinnati are familiar sounds NO
city has made more rapid strides uurlns
the past quarter of a century than tue
Monumental City, and that she has enter
prising business men is demonstrated Dy
her lines of steamers to foreign anu
domestic ports. The Baltimore line OF
steamships to Savann alb has as maghlh-
cent vessels as ever plowed the ocean,
and does a large carrying trade. ms
ocean traffic and her famous railroad, the
Baltimore and Ohio, whose lines extend
unbroken to the Northwestern Iakes'
proves that in such matters she has cItl-
zens who have nerve and brains.
Rut few drummers hail from Baltimore,
while other metropolitan cities are repre-
sented every day in this city by their COM
mercial men. The MORNING NEWS
knows her business facilities, having Tor
years bought its supply of newspaper
successfully with other cities as to price
and quality. There is close bond OF
sympathy between the people of the south
and Baltimore, and with her facilities for
doing business she might secure large
volume of trade which now goes else
where did her merchants but use the
same means-namely, by making them
selves known to the outside world. A
few firms in that city have been extensive
advertisers abroad and they have done
well. The majority, however, appear TO
be satisfied with a local reputation.
Printers ink is as sure a road to success
in building up IA city as it was in building
up the colossal fortunes OF the world
renowned advertisers whose names are
now household words. Let our friends IN
Baltimore give these matters little at
tentiOn and they will find that there is
many a thousand dollars worth OF trade 10

SOME OLD scEccL:feeKs.

I have been back TO my home again.
To the place where I was born.
have heard the wind from the stormy
main
60 rustiing through the corn;
have seen the purple hills one more
have stood on the rocky coast,
Where the waves storm inland to the
shore;
But the thing that touched me most
Was little leather strap that kept
Some school books, tattered and
torn.
/ sighed. I smiled I could have wept,
When came on them one morn;
For I thought Of the merry little lad,
In the mornings sweet and cool,
fr weather was good or weather had,
Going whistling off to school.
My fingers undid the strap again,
And l thought how my hand ha.
changed,
And half in loving. half in pain,
Back ward my memory ranged.
There was the grammar | knew so
we'll
didn't remember n rule;
And tue old blue speller-I used to
spell
Better than any in school;
And the wonderful geography
I've read on the green hillside,
When told myself I'd surely see
All lands in the world so wide,
From the Indians home in the far, far
To the mystical Cathay.
have seen them all. But home is
best.
When the evening shades fall gray.
And there was the Old arithmetic,
All tattered and stained with tears.

And get, now and again.
a letter In Dicks bold, ready hand
From some great western plain.
There wasn't book, and scarce..a
page,
That hadn't some memory
OF days that seemed like Il golden age,
or friends shall no more see.
And so picked up the books again
And buckled the strap once more,
And broughts them over the tossing
main:
Come, children, and look them Ger.
And there they lay on little stand,
Not far from the Holy Book;
And his boys and girls with loving

And the Book of Books in promise
