oeryales the ranks Of active business men &
any great extent Evidence 10 the contrary
Is too plentiful and conclusive.
The only proper advertising is news OF th

IN tho spirit in which tho store is managed
hat as the first requisite is attention, use al
tho resources Of the pleasing writer-wit
story, incident, current events, philosophy

your topic, DO interesting, true and non-mer
ccnary.
The retail dealer who adyertiscs in his loca

years ago it was discovered that glycerine

needed by adults to accomplish tho desired
purpose IS only teaspoonful, and tho most
convenient instrument to apply it with is a

Some people contend that the evil OF
high hats is aggravated considerably by
the defects of our theatres, where suili-

also on the Greek stage, owing TO the
height Of the : ,latform where the per

ground we cover with orchestra and
stalls. Some Of the newly erected
theatres in this city are much better OF
i'm this respect than the older houses.

say at from 2oc. per 100 pounds to

wide difference between the prices OF
sound and unsOuud tobacco, and one

There Is a healthy demand for desira-
