But it is not alone in numbers that the great
increase Of advertising is shown. The larger
space required for advertisements during the
year 1889 as compared with that occupied IN
1888 is even more striking.
The average daily space filed by advertise
ments in 1888 was % 10 columns, or 7779 columns
for the year; whereas for the year 1899 the daily
average was 2s.75 columns, or 1923 columns in
the aggregate, being total gain over the pre-
vious year Of L 44 columnsl And this, il nass
be remembered, consisted exclusively of the
ordinary everyday business advertising, nothing
in the way Of tax sales poll ists election returns.
etc, such as occasionally swell the business OF
political organs, being included in its patrosr
age.

fore gives The STAR a dist,nctir~ and e1auiabs
position Va modern Journalism, the fullness Of
its home circulation, the extent to which
It is relied upon by members Of the
household, and particularly by the pur-
chasing portion of the community, are
the marked characteristics OF the paper,
to which no other daily Journal now
published can furnish n parallel.
This is no idle boast on the part of the paper.
1t is a well established fact, demonstrated to
the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter
prising business men Of Washington, who seek
and know where to find THE LARGEST
RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT
FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the
growth of The STAR's advertising patronage
Nothing can more surely illustrate tie
esteem in which any article is held by the
public than a constantly increasing demand
for it-day by day, week by week, month by
month, and year by year,-in the face Of adj
verse claims and protentious competition Ths

Bowman's jOcular appeals. Then the venerable
presiding officer talked pleasantly, charmingly.
Of the pleasures Of liberality; told how he had
yesterday been promised five hundred-dollar
subscription for the university; promised to do
what he could in the subscribing line: wished
audibly that he was a Jay Gould-in pocket
and then closed the meeting by calling upon
the congregation to arise and sing the dox-
ology. DIR. Corey pronounced the benediction
and that ended most enjoyable occasion.
Many of the bishops held impromptu reccp-
tions and nearly all of them had an opportunity
to shake hands with Sam Small. who had been
an attentive and unobserved listener from the
melodious Alpha to the prayerful Omega
