Gentlemen: - We had the pleasure re-
Gently of making shipment to you of our
new "White Cross" Extracts, and send
you by mail to-day very neat show card
which we would like you to place proml-
nently in your store and which will call
theattention of your trade to the goods.
1t has been our intention for some time
past to place upon the market the finest
line of tiavoring extracts manufactured in
this country, and after months of study
and experimenting with the prominent
brands now before the public we have at
last succeeded in placing before you a quail
ity which beyond doubt has no superior.
We can not too strongly impress upon
you that you can unhesitatinely recon-
mend them to your customers as the finest
that can possibly be manufactured. The
package and style generally is such as to
attract attention, and we predict that when
your trade have tested the quality of the
goods your sale for white Crossn extracts
will be large.
By complying with our request you win
confer a favor upon yours truly,

truth, first disclosed we believe by
a DR.. Powell, is demonstrated in
thousands of cases before our eyes,
and yet 50 little interest do we take
in the physical improvement of our
race, while doing so much for our
domestic animals, it is in danger of
being turned into oblivion. This
science of temperaments has been so
exactly developed that its most adj
vanced students can tell any
stranger, on their first meeting with
him, all about the temperaments Of
his parents, grand parents and
other surprising facts, without ever
making a single mistake. And yet
this science is neglected for things of

USELESS.

In the Senate of the United States
several senators expressed them
selves in favor of .abolishing the
whole diplomatic foreign mission
system. In truth, that was the feel
ing of many of the founders of our
government. Pinkney of South
Caro- ina who had ably represented
us abroad derided the custom as use
less and mere imitation Of mon
archial ways, and because whenever
we have any real use for such repre-
sentatives abroad we are sure to
send special representatives. The
consular service is sufficient. The
present system merely enables a
few great personages to pose before
the world as ''high flyers" in society.

the cause of the evil is very proba-

between such relationA Where the
temperaments are totally opposite
the offspring is as sound as any, So
affirm some high authorities on the
subject. But Il seems certain that
where the temperaments are the
same the offspring are unsound,
whether the parents are related or
not. Fortunately for our race, if no
match making interieres and we are
left TO our natural inclinations, we
seek our opposites. A union of OPP
posite temperaments and where the
head Of Que party reclines and that
Of the other tends TO the towering or

ground for sound offspring, If any
one doubts this, just let him extend

DOES ADVERTISING PAY?

In illustration of the oft repeated
truth that judicious advertising
CREATES many new business,
ENLARGEs many an old business,
REvIvEs many a dull business,
REsCUEs many a lost business,
SAVES many a failing business,
PRESERVES many large business,
SECURES success in any business,
the following touching and no
less truthful tale is submitted:
Down in Florida not long ago a
family lost child which they sup
posed had straycd away from home
and got lost. After searching in
vain for three days, the frantic par
ents placed an advertisement in the
nearest newspaper. Imagine the
surprise of the parents upon going
to the door next morning to see a
monster alligator upon the doorstep
where he had disgorged the child
alive and then died himself. The
lad" cost them but twenty-five cents
and it gave them back their darling
child: they sold the aligator's hide
for five dollars, and the parents are
showing the child in all the dime
museums of the land at fifty dollars
a week. Does advertising pay?
Who can longer doubt it? Our SOL
icitor will pay you a call within a
few days. ...
