How to Make MiBlinOs.

Barnum, the great Snowman. says he
expects to make a million dollars this
summer, and in speaking to acommittee
of merchants who were anxious to know
the secret of his success, he said: "You
do not any of you advertise enough.
You ought to invoke printers ink every
day. You are sleepy and want your
business to run itself. A standing ad-
vertisement in your local paper COM
mands confidence and becomes familiar
in the eyes Of the reader. 1t may not
be read very often, still it makes the
name and business Of man familiar,
and its presence in paper inspires
confidence in the ability of the adver-
tiser."

"While good temperance people
are decrying liquor" says one Of the
leading physicians of Connecticut,
"they seldom stop to think how
much harm is being done by the
abuse of beverage to which many
of them are devoted. I just came
from attending the case Of a FIVE
year-old babe who is ruined for life
by it's parents indulging it In tea
drinking. The child became very
nervous and dyspeptic, and they
sent for me. I asked them how
much tea the child drank. about
two cups at each meal and several
between meals, was the reply. You
see," the doctor continued, "they
let the teapot stand on the stove all
day, Thus the fannie acid is ex-
tracted, which serves to turn the
Innings Of the stomach into leather,
and brings on dyspepsia and kin
bred diseases. Yes, you will find
hundreds of women, young girls and
aged women, and occasionally a
man, who have completely ruined
their nervous system by the exces-
sive use Of common tea. It will be
a blessing to mankind when a tenn
perance crusade can spare wind
enough from its attack on alcohol
to assail tea.
