The latest development of the advertis-
ing art comes from Paris, where an enter
prising publisher has employed large
corps of sandwich men to advertise a book
by walking down the boulevards and read
ing it with rapt attention. An inquisitive
gentleman, anxious to know how far this
would have an educational effect upon the
readers, crept up behind one who seemed
more rapt than all the others, and found
that he was reading the book UPSIDE down.

Spanish Literary Decadence.

Perhaps no country has so remarkably
published its own literary decadence as
Spain. When don Quixote" was pub
lished the Spaniards were reading peo-
pie, and gorgeous books were printed and
published at Burgos, Seville, Malaga,
Coimbra, Toledo, Alcala de Henares, Val
ladslid, Huesca, Cuenca, Barcelona, Me-
dina del Campo, Valencia, Salamanca,
Perpinan, Zaragosa, Tarragona, Evora,
Bilboa, Logrono, Baeza, Tolosa, Jaen, Cor
dova, Pamplona, Lerida, and, of course,
Madrid-a fine list of publishing towns.
Some, no doubt, have forgotten. But
now the Spanish publishing business is
confined for the most part to Madrid, Bar
celona and Seville, and it is not a flourish
ing business.

was done to secure uniformity. Compos-

once and had been admonished by the

again. The next nigat an editor, in read
ing over the proof Of an article, thought
to improve it by inserting the well-known
line, "Meet me in the lane, love, at half

SECRETARY PRocToR's idea concerning
coast defenses at first blush appears to be
commendable. At present We do not con-
ceive Of any reasonable objections to it.
In brief, his recommendations are that at
least two chief points on the Atlantic and
one on the Pacific should be strongly
fortified; that at these points great
fortresses should be constructed and
equipped with the best arms; that only
Just men enough of the regular army,
500, should be quartered in them, to
care for the arms and other property.
That the National Guard of the cities and
vicinity of these fortresses should be en-
couraged to frequently occupy the works,
dell in them, learn how to handle the
guns and defend the fortresses, and TO re-
ceive instruction from the regular officers.
In case of war these militiamen would
naturally he the first to rally in these
works, and thus, in few hours, a large
and eficieat force could be gathered. He
believes that this plan offers to The Ma
t.oual Guard of the seahoard States new
and attractive field for drill and study,
and that they viii take pride in training
theaiSelyes to man the defensive works of
tLeir homes.

a SOCIAL custom prevails in Brazil that
has all the force and effect of law, that
before marriage will be consented to the
groom must present to the parents of the
bride certificate that he is free from un-
mentionable disease and from the evil
dences of any disease transmissible to his
children. And the physicians must fur
ther certify that the parties are not inca
pacitated from marriage for any cause in
violation of sanitary laws That is to say,
the sanitary marriage prevails in Brazil
among the best classes, and the woman who
laces herself into unheaIth is condemned,
as well as the man whose habits are
vicious. There are some people that may
well take lesson from the social customs
Of Brazilians. The Spartan rule was more
severe than the Brazilian, the unhealthy
were forbidden to marry, and the healthy
and strong were compelled to marry.

OLD LONDON.
The Many Changes That Have Been
Wrought in Southwark.
4 ".

From Good Words.
After the disastrous battle of Hastings
the victorious Norman marched upon
Southwark with the intention of LAYING
siege to London, but judging discretion to
be for the better part of valor, he contented
himself with laying Southwark in ashes,
and then pushed forward to subjugate the
western counties. Such associations with
historical events and historical personages
might be recalled in any number. If one
could only lift some magic wand and re-
store at will the Southwark of successive
periods few would blame us for speaking
of it as the most interesting quarter of
London, and few visitors to the metropolis
would shun the southern side of the river.
But, alas another kind of wizardry has
exercised its power in exactly the opposite
direction; its spells have taken some hun
dreds of years to work, but they have
effected such transformation as it would
be difficult to parallel. With two or three
exceptions, all the old landmarks are gone,
and there is nothing to assist the magma
ton in restoring the scenes Of the past.
"But see" says the man of progress and
improvement. show much the transforma-
tion you complain of has increased
the value of the place. Eight hun
bred years ago the entire revenue
of Southwark was only ZIG, and
the citizens of London bought the manor
from Henry VIII, for the paltry sum of
s647; and now, look you, land was sold
there only the other day at the rate of
10000 per acre. What would you? isn't
it better to turn the place to account after
such magnificent fashion than to retain
these old buildings that not one in ten
thousand would care to look at? Shake
speare's Globe Theater and Edward AL
leyn's Beer Garden are gone, it is true,
but see what you have in place of them.
What could be more interesting than Bar
clay & Perkins brewery, covering its
twelve acres of ground and brewing three
thousand bushels of malt per day? Would
not most people be more interested in look
ing at that huge vat which holds $4,000
worth of porter, and at these splendid COP
per boilers that cost nearly $4,000 each,
than at an old tumble-down theater or
the relics or Roman baths? And if you
have lost the Tabard Inn, with its mem
cries of Chaucer, and the old Marshalsea
Prison, see what capital streets have been
opened out, and how every foot Of ground
has been utilized. Good Words.
