Charles summers Tree Is Dying.

What is 5now9 as Charles Summers tree
in the capitol grounds is dying, and will
have to be taken away. This tree stands in
the center of the walk leading from New
Jersey avenue to the southeast entrance to
the capitol building, and was greatly adj
nired by Senator Sumner for its splendid
symmetry and luxuriant foliage Some
years ago, when the capitol grounds were
being renodeIed, the landscape artist di-
rected its removal to make room for the
walk Senator Simon Cameron, from his
room at the Congressional hotel, saw what
was going on and ran over to the place in
his dressing gown and slippers He
made use of some very vigor-
Gus language concerning the new
tangled lands ape architecture that was
being introduced, and swOre that Sumner 5
tree should not be sacrificed. He said that
Sumner and he had never been friends, but
that as long as lie lived he should see that
so noble an object of his colleagues afec-
ton should be spared Washington National

The Science of Newspaper Advertising.
Newspaper advertising is now science,
and is as near perfection in getting at re-
turns a it well can be- There has been a
revolution in the manner of conducting adj
vert sing agencies, AMI the methods in
vogue a few years since would prove ut
terly worthless now. The provincial press
at one time would willingly accept anything
in payment for advertising, and producers
of patent articles unknown to the general
public, found no difficulty in inducing
county newspapers and in many instances
the city press in the smaller cites or coun-
try not only to accept the articles adver-
tised in payment, but would manage to get
enough cash out of the publisher, i'll addi-
ton to the advertising, to at least pay the
original cost of the article advertised
All this is changed now. 1t Is almost
impossible to find a newspaper, be it ever SO
modest in pretensions, wiling to accept
such terms The fact has finally been re-
allied by new spaper publishers that no new
articles can he successful ly introduced to
the public without the aid of the press, a
fact which was always known TO the ad-
vertiser. and trade contracts are fast be-
coming relics of the past Notwithstanding
which fact newspaper advertising Is on the
increase, while bill posting is growing more
and more unpopular every year.-N. M

English Hospitals Built by Charity.

In England hospitals are built and main
tanned in all her cities by pure charity, and
anybody taken sick or meeting with an &C
cident in the streets can be admitted at
once and healed by first-class physicians
and SUI geons entirely free of charge, and in
the case of very poor people this is a great
blessing, for they are attended to and nursed
in a manner very much superior to what
they would meet with In their own homes.
a certain Sunday in every year is set
apart for a special collection in all the
churches, chapels, etc, and certain Satur-
day in every yer for collection in the
different factories, workshops, stores, Offices
and all other places where manual labor is
employed. The money thus collected is all
put into one fund ana then divided among
the different hospitals, indrmaries, etc.
You will therefore see that by this system
the workingman contributes his quota
equally with his Weather brother, thereby
giving him a feeling of independence in &C
ceptfng the benefits o. the institution, for
there are many work ngmen to whom the
idea o. receiving charity in any form IS en-
tirely repugnant.- Free Press.
