A GOOD SHOW.

We are always advising you to
advertise, and TO keep on advertis-
ing, but that does not cover the
ground entirely, Of course, you
should make your advertising effec=
tive--if an electric light be available,
you should not use a "tallow dip"
to light the path to your store.
What do we mean by that? Sim
ply that the more conspicuous, the
more artistic, the more attractive,
the more original you make your ad-
vertisements, the more people will
see and read them, and the more
customers you will have to con-
tribute to your cash-drawer.
Study effects in bold pretty type
good matter may be spoiled by
ugly dressing. Seek to catch the
eye by a display of good taste in the
style and arrangement Of your an
llouncemcnt.
Above all, let it be bold enough to
be easily read. Don't vex a reader
by vexing his or her eyes!

The residents on the west end OF
Virginia street, Island, are up in arms.
For several years the street there has
been go badly graded that in rainy
weather one Cal! navigate it only in n
boat. Nov the city is setting q curb
there even lower than the former grade.
The physicians ascribc q great deal OF
the prevalent sickness in that vicinity
to the condition OF that street and they
agree that II the present ill-conceivcd
plan is carried out it will make the
matter much worse. A committee OF
residents called at the Board Of Public
Works office yesterday 10 sec ii the
matter could not be remedied, but
found nobody there. The gentlemen
did not propose 10 have heavy expcndi-
lures to which they had been put by
reason OF the former bad arrangement
rendered worthless, and new expense
and trouble put upon them, SO they
went to q lawyer to consult him about
suing out IN injunction. II the matter
Is not amicably arranged before the
work goes further, this step will be
taken.

this afternoon:
To The puticGadoar trade IN Whac'ihg and riciHfty:
We herewith present our position in
the strike declared against our bust
ness:
Our proposition to all OF ourcmployes
was that we pay them the same wages
as we had paid them last year. which
proposition wGs accepted by the arbi-
tration committee OF the Ohio Valley
Trades and Labor Assembly; and the
difference between us arose because we
would not humble ourselves to the
