It is easy enough to awaken an Amer
lean crowd from Indifference OF ]ethar-

one sat erect, looking stiff and severe,
says the New York Tribune. The cabin
was cold, and the look of disgust on the
scores Of faces deepened to one OF
hatred of all corporations. The boat was
shaking heavily, and the chandeliers
ratified like light artillery. There was
a sharp crack, and one of the glass
globes came flying through the air A
man thrust out both hands, and. with Il
quick and deft gesture, caught the
whizzing glass just as it was about to
be shattered to thousand pieces on
the cabin floor. "A good catch!'' some
one shouted Bravo" cried another
while running fire of applause and
hand-clapping went over the cabin that
changed the situation entirely, a hum

The art of advertising, as has been
often noted, has made great progress in
recent years; fact that receives fresh
illustration, when the author of a book,
whose public sale is interfered with by
the police, occupies the pages OF q mag
azine. with an ostensible discussion OF
ethico-hterary questions, IN the course
Of which he shows how spicy his book
is by making appropriate citations, and
how popular it is by telling how many
hundred thousand copies have been sold.
Yes: it is always well to be aware OF the
man who '.has sold'' as many people as
he has copies Of his work. Advertising
rates are too high at any prlce there.
