ADVERTISING IN ALL ACES.
Means Of Announcing Wares before
the Day Of the NeWspapsrs.

Washington star.l
The wise in the business world have
for many ages awaited themselves of the
science Of advertising. One of the most
ancient modes of attracting public pat
ronage was by means of public criers
long before the age of printing. The
medieval criers used to carry a horn
with which to fix the attention of the
people when about to make proclama-
ton or publication. They formed well
organized body in France as early as the
Twelfth century. Under charter from
Louis VII they were entitled to penny
for every time they blew their horns and
could force themselves upon tavern
keepers to cry their wares under a gen.
eral statute. They at very early period
formed themselves into a corporation.
and in 1858 obtained from Philip Angus
tus favorable statutes of the most tyran-
meal kind.
In England the public criers appear to
have been national institution at an
early period They cried all kinds of
goods, and were sworn to tell "truly and
well to the best Of their ability and
power" After while the bellman or
town crier was appointed for the benefit
of the community at large. In most of
the country towns of Great Britain, and
even in London, there are still bellmen
and parish criers, though their offices are
little more than sinecures. The provin-
cial crier's duties are of the most varied
description, and relate to objects lost or
found, sales by public auction or pri-
vate contract, weddings, christenings or
funerals.
But the beIlman as means of adver-
Using has seen his last days. Nearly
three-quarters of century ago in Eng
Land wagons were driven through the
streets surmounted by revolving turrets
on which were painted flaming an
nouncements of coming events, and men
on horseback rode up and down the
principal thoroughfares with great bill
boards strapped on either side of them
to attract public attention.
The first regular newspaper, The Ger
tain News of This Present Week, pub
hshed in London in 1929, contained no
advertisements; but in 1852 advertise
ments appeared in something like the
present form in The Mercurius Politicus.
Books were the articles earliest adver-
tised. The great plague in London
brought forth the first medical adver-
tisements. In 1900 Addison, reviewing
the advertisements of his time, speaks of
their ''cuts and figures" The London
Times was established in 1888, but did
little to reduce advertising to a system,
though it demonstrated its value and
Importance. The first American daily
journal, The Independent Gazette, of
New York, in 1887, in its second
year contained thirty-four advertise
ments. From that time on the growth
of American advertising developed the
fact that extensive advertising was
legitimate necessity to trade. The
other great metropolitan papers founded
since 1888 have greatly popularized
advertising. A special feature adopted
about this time was business notices"
and especial notices" commanding high
nricas

There was a wedding at Westport
yesterday, and the welded couple started
in one of Perry's landaus to take the
5:45 train from New Bedford. When
near Bliss corner one of the horses was
affected with paralysis, and a message
was sent to the stable for a relay. On
the arrival of fresh horse the disabled
animal was left by the roadside and the

commodate the party the train was held

Personal Habits of Africans.

At eating, the negro having always
washed his hands and rinsed his
mouth, sits upon the ground; holds
the larger pieces between his teeth
while he cuts off bite with his knife,
but does not use both hands to hold
food, except in gnawing bones; with
the usual dishes, he lays his right arm
over his knees and, reaching into the
pot, molds the thick mess into Jumps
about the size Of walnut, which he
throws into his mouth with a jerk,
without scattering any of the food.
To take out vegetables or soup, he
presses a. hollow into the lump and
dips with it. Politeness is shown to
the host or the housewife, after eating,
by smacking loudly enough TO be
heard.
While the negro is capable of eating
meat in an unpleasant state OF decom-
position, he is very sensitive against
some tastes, and will make evident
manifestations of his dislike of them.
He is careful about the outer matters
in drinking. He will always rinse his
mouth first, even when he is intensely
thirsty. If the cup is not too small,
he takes it i'm both hands; and he
likes to sit down with it. If the YES
sci is large and open, he draws in the
water from the surface with his lips,
without bringing them in contact
with the dish. Sometimes negroes
pour water into their mouths. When
drinking at ponds and rivers, the
water is carried to the mouth with
the hand. For some mystic reason
it is considered bad to lie fiat down
when drinking from rivers. The fear
of being snapped up by crocodile
may have something to do with the
matter.
Great attention is given in most of
the tribes to the care of the body.
The teeth are cleansed with a stick
which has been chewed into kind of
brush. The hands are washed fire.
quently, not by turning and twisting
ard subbing them together one within
the other, as with us, but by straight
up and down rubbing, such as is
giycn to the other limbs. This man
ner of washing is SO characteristic
that an African might be distin-
guished by it from Europen without
reference to the color. The sun is
their only towel.-[Popular Science
