Penurious Royalty.

Louis Philippe was mean in the sense
 had nc perception of any kind of gran
 deur. He cut down ruthlessly, to make
 money of them, trees in his parks which
 had weathered the storms of many hun dred years. His meanness was the ruin
 of his dynasty. From St. Petersburg to
 Madrid and London to Athens thrift now reigns. There is hardly a sovereign who feels that the income allowed him by the nation over which he reigns is net for him or her, but for the dignity of the crown, and to act as a head waiter on national industry. The czar and czarina themselves, colossal as their private for. tune is, are intent on making it much greater. Stinginess is traditional in the house of Hohenzollern but their civil list allowances have been never great, and they shrink from no duty, however hard or irksome. They have public spirit in high degree, and command respect The late king of Sweden bequeathed his only daughter the largest fortune that was ever known of in Scandinavia, and it would have been counted great one all the world over. His father was Berna- dotte, the son of Bernais lawyer of small provincial practice.
 In Belgium the royal family is also plutocratic one. Although Leopold I. was feeced by fair harpies in his old age, he left to each of his three children about million sterling. Yet M. Etienne Arapo remembers when he had to go in debt for some French embroidered muslin which he bought to make presents to the sisters of his Qn I8I0 master, the ezar. Empress Elizabeth is prodigal, and thinks she can never spend enough on her stables and dog kennels; but the emper- or is anxious to swell his investments and the crown prince and princess pare cheese. In Italy the king saves to pay his fathers debts, and nobody, therefore, complains ot his thrift. Ludwig of Bavaria is not of his tune. His brother eff Wurtemburg IS not personally extravagant, like our James l. but is profuse through tavorites. The one now dominating him is an American, who succeeds an American At Lisbon the king dowager has amassed so much as to be able to spend millions of francs on his country house near Gin tra, and in furnishing it and the palace where he and his amiable wife live in winter. Maria Pia, being passionately fond of dress, Dom Luis pinches in the stables and wherever else he can. He, however, only saves out of his income His ministers plunder by means of fre- quent loans, but he is not suspected of receiving share of the hauls they thus periodically make.

 "What has become of Judas2' asked one of the spectators of St. Peter, with whom he was we'll acquainted.
 Judas be -," was the reply "las, year we had to choke him to make him give back the thirty pieces of silver tha, we gave him in the play, so this year we apostles won't let him stick his nose in. side of the circus tent.

The Grea, Southwestern Music House

The Great Southwestern Music House.
 Considering the natural advantages of the two places, and the enterprising character of their business men, 1t is but natural that Memphis, Tenn, and Little Rock, Ark, should be the commercial centers and great supply depots of their own and several adjoining states. Among the business houses of the two cities there is none that stands higher or better de- serves the trade it commands than the Great Southwestern Music House of H.. G. Hollenberg. A business career of over thirty years in Memphis and of six years in Little Rock, during which these houses have virtually controlled the music trade of Arkansaw, Tennessee, Mississippi, north Alabama, north Texas and the Indian Territory, places them prominently above all southern competi. tors. These houses carry the largest and most complete stock of the best m akes of pianos and organs, sheet music and all goods pertaining to their line, and are prepared to i'll orders without any delay, and at prices less than the purchaser can obtain in the east, freight considered. All goods handled by H. G. Hollenberg are comprised in a neat catalogue which will be mailed free to any address. Par ties contemplating the purchase of a piano, or organ, or musical merchandise of any description, should not tail to ob- tain Holenberg's prices befor, ordering elsewhere. Address, H. c.

Memory and Nutrition.
lExchange.l

The editor of Herald and Realth, in discussing the subject of Memory and Nutrition" gives an interesting reminis- cence of Agassiz, He says:
 Memory is also, to large extent, de- pendent upon perfect circulation of the blood in the brain. The following case illustrates the effects of impeded circu- lation ot the blood on the memory, and is also a very interesting account of the workings of the mind in sleep, as given by Mrs. Agassiz in the life of her hus- band.
 He (Agassiz) had been for two weeks striving to decipher the somewhat obscure impression of fossil fish on the stone slab in which it was preserved. Weary and perplexed he put his work aside at last, and tried to dismiss it from his mind. Shortly after, he one night awoke, per suaded that while asleep he had seen his tsh with all the missing features perfectly restored. But when he tried to hold and make fast the image, it escaped him Nevertheless, he went early to the Jardin des Piantes, thinking that on looking anew at the impression he should see some thing which would put him on the track of his vision. In vain :; the blurred record was as blank as ever. The next night he saw the fish az ain, but with no satisfac- tory result When he awoke it disap- peared from his memory as before. Hoping that the same experience might be repeated on the third night, he placed a pencil and paper beside his bed before going to sleep. Accordingly, toward morning, the fish reappeared in his dream, confusedly at first, but, at last, with such distinctness that he had no longer any doubt as to its geological character. Still half dreaming in perfect darkness, he traced these characters on the sheet of paper at the bedside. In the morning he was surprised to see in his nocturnal sketch features which he thought it im- possible the fossil itself should reveal. He hasten to the Jardin des Plantes, and, with his drawing as guide, succeeded in chisel'ng away the surface of the stone under which portions of the fish proved to be hidden. When wholly ex- posed, it corresponded with his dream and his drawing, and he succeeded in classifying it with ease. He often spoke of this as good illustration of the we'll known fact that when the body is at rest the tired brain will do the york it refused before.

While it is.milder than any other fine brand, yet it is made of such excellent leaf and so thoroughly saturated with the mellow fruit sweeten. ing that 1t holds its own and outlasts as chew other tobaccos that are strong as poison.

Nature, however, has supplied the remedy which science has tried in vain to provide. The waters of Griffin Spring, Ark, will not only relieve, but will positively cure Bright's disease. It has been cured by the use of these waters, and so positive are we that they will cure in every in- stance, that we lgnaranLee a cure to all afflicted with Bright's disease or any other kidney affection, who will come and use the waters as advised. By guarantee is meant that unless a cure IS effected, the patient will be under no expense whatever while at Griffin Spring. Visit ors whose cases require it, will receive the best of medical attention from Dr. T. A. Krider, resident physician. AS to the efficacy ot these waters in kidney troubles, we refer te John H. Reslear, of Genoa, Nance Co.,, Neb., who, after suf- fering during several years with Bright's disease, was completely restored by a three weeks visit to Griffin Spring Wm. Allen, of Little Rock, Ark, suffer ed 37 years with kidney complaint and was cured by the use of these waters. Hon. C. R. Breckenridge, M. C., Washington, D. C., Hon. Lecil Bobo, San Antonio, Tex, H.

A RETROsPEcTIoN.
Under the above heading I. H. Ba

Under the above heading ]. H. Bates, the great newspaper advertising agent of New York, writes a summary of his thirty years ex6erience in newspaper advertising. From it we quote the fol- lowing:
 Thirty years ago a man who should spend $25 900 year in the newspapers, would attract attention as large adver- tiser; now there are houses expending almost as much m monthly, right along through the year, without attracting att tention. Mir. Robert Bonner, whose un- dertakings in all directions have been characterized by breadth, boldness, pre- cision, and success, was the first to m ake the public familiar with large advertising applied in the most original manner, to build up the circulation of his Ledgey to point never attatned before or since by any journal in this country. Although Mir, Bonner's largest newspaper advertis- ing was done twenty-five years ago, for he rapidly made his paper successful, and having accomplished his purpose, cut down his expenses in that channel still no one has come up to the "splendid audacity" of an order for one inser ion of an advertisement to cost over $6o GOO. And yet in pecuniary matters he is a very exact and careful man.
 It agrees with my experience that news paper advertising is profitable. As look back over the very considerable number of those whose advertising have done, do not now recall single one who judi ciously, perseveringly, and freely pushed good articles, of whatever kind, in the newspapers, and did not make at least a fair success, while great many have gained ample fortunes. will not men, ton names in support of this statement, as could easily do, but the list is a large one. Indeed, it has been my obseva- ton that it is easier for large advertisers to make money than to keep it. Often it comes in so fast that the heads get turned, and lavish, personal expenditures and improbable investments swallow up the fortunes, which, had they been longer in making, would likely have been more permanent.
 When business men come to look on the cost of steady newspaper advertising as an investment, sure to pay as well as any other, and not unlikely to be ex. ceedingly profitable, they will use it more systematically than heretofore, and re- gard it as necessary item of expense.
