The Advertising man.

1t has often been said that an adj
vertising agent must be born with a
genius for his work, like the poet he
is "nascitur non fit" You can train
a man to be merchant, a
lawyer or parson; but all
the training in the world will
not make a successful advertising
man. He must be the possessor OF a
kaleidoscope character, tact, shrewd-
ness, keen Judgment of human ma
ture; the news instinct of the jour-
nalist, and the financial acumen of
the business man must meet in happy
combination; and above and around
all must be that indefnable
vuality, which, for lack of better
term, we call magnetism. Such a
combination might make success in
almost any walk of life, but the COM
bination is absolutely essential to
success in the advertising business

THIS wayside note from the New
Orleans Item is well worth consider
ing in Texas. True, the democracy
have organized their hostility to rail-
way extension, but the legislative
machinery for this destructive work
is not constructed, and it may be that
wiser counsels will prevail in that
body, which is supposed to be dele
berative one, than in the convention
which is a hurrah concern. The
note referred to, as coming from the
editorial pen of the Item, is this:
"Mr. Jay Gould recently expressed
his qualification at the policy OF the
Louisiana Legislature toward rail-
roads, at a time when other States
were obstructing their own progress
by hampering and restrictive legis-
lation which must constitute bar to
much new development work In that
direction. Mr.. Gould has been in
duced in consequence to enlarge his
plans tor railroad construction in this
State, and another year even will
see trains in motion that will bring
new and valuable tracts of cultivabfe
land and forest into direct cOmmuni-
cation with the markets. /
Can the Arkansas Pass road find
any occasion for expressing its graf
ification at the altitude of Texas to-
wards railways? The reference of Jay
Gould to the policy of other states is
very significant.

THE SMART ROGUE.
fYou AnnIyze Him Yon'Il Find Hes Not 40
Bright He Thinks He Is,

III You Anniyze Him You'll Find Hes NOT no
Bright as He Thinks He Is.
The Century,
There is altogether too much reverence for
rascals, and for rascally methods, on the
part of tolerablv decent people. Rascality is
picturesque, doubtless, and In fiction it has
even its moral uses; but in real life it should
have no liberation; and it is, as a matter of
fact. seldom accompanied by the ability
that it brags.
"one proof that the smart rogue is not as
smart as he thinks, and as others think. is
that he so often comes to grief. He arrives
at his successes through his knowledge of
the evil in men; he comes to grief through
his Ignorance OF the good in men. He
thinks he knows human nature but he
only half knows it. Therefore he is con-
stantly in danger of making fatal mistake.
For instance, his excuse to himself for living
and trickery is that lying and trickery are
INDUCED In by others-even by some men
who make loud boast of virtue before the
world. a little more or less of living and
trickery seems to make no difference, he as
sumes-especially so long as there is no
public display of lies and tricks-for he
understands that there must always be a
certain outward propriety in order to insure
even the inferior kind of success he Is aim
ing at.
But, having no usable conscience to guide
him, he undertakes the sensitiveness OF other
consclences-and especially the sensitive
ness OF that vague sentiment called public
opinion and he makes a miscalculation.
which, if it does not land him in the peni.
tentlary. at least makes him of no use to his
respectable allies; therefore of no use to his
semi-criminal associates; therefore a sur.
prised, miserable, and vindictive failure.

cambria, and when Maude told me to 90
back and rectify those errors, our house
came near being disrupted. This time 1
shifted from claret lemonade to gin fizz, and
succeeded in accomplishing that part of my
errand satisfactorily.
When returned Maude was in tears.
She was accusing herself of degree of stu
pidity which not even my close study of
her had ever revealed to me- The cause of
this self-reproach, if understood it cor.
rectly, was that she had cut her dress in
such way that about half of it would have
the anchors right side up and the other half
upside down.
"Howdy," she sobbed, "half of this mate
rial is ruined"
"Never mind If 1t is. my dear" saidI.
Maude sent me over to Smiths TO get
some more anchors before they we're ali sold
out. I ran over 10 Smiths, but when 1 ap-
preached the portals of his place of business
and called up to my mind the narrowing
giggle of the girl behind the flannel counter
my heart failed me. I took another cooling
potion and tried to be calm, but did not
succeed Then vaylaid small boy; gave
