The advertiser in a small way often
stands agbast at the large sums of money
which certain masters of the art are
known to spend annually in bringing
their goods before the public. Having
had experience only within his own mar
row circle he asks in bewildered way
how it is possible that they can make it
pay. He takes pencil and paper an
and begins to figure it out. Supposiug
their profits on single sale to be so much,
he determines how many sales they
would have TO make to cover their entire
advertising expenditure. About the time
he reaches this result he gives up in de-
spair and falls back upon the old but safe
conclusion that these princes of adver>
Using are ,nducting their business for
the purpose of making money. and that
if they did not find their advertising paid
they would not continue it.-Ex

BASEBALL ROANOKE.

There have been developments during
the past week which lead THE TIMES to
a firm belief that the strong interest
which Roanoke has showed in baseball
for the past two years has not died. If
concentrated effort cSuld be made by
the resident lovers of the great Amer
lean game good strong club could be
organized here and put upon paying
basis within thirty days.
Along the Shenandoah Valley as far as
Hagerstown aye half dozen clubs that
would cross bats with Roanoke. These
clubs are in towns that claim an ability
and Willingness to turn out paying
crowds to witness good games. The
University of Virginia would un
doubtcdly be willing to play in Roanoke
and there are at least three clubs in
North Carolina towns which would also
expect an interchange of games.
The most difficult feature of the Roa-
noke situation is the selection Of suita-
bic grounds and placing them in proper
order. Several sites have been named,
anyone of which might do. but probably
the one at Ninton would be the the best.

To the latest number of the privately
printed Gypsy Lore Society Journal,
which is more like q chapter of an
ancient romance than n bit of modern
biography. When young girl she had
her horoscope cast by a gypsy woman
named lIagar burton, who wrote her
predictions in Romany and asked her
to present the document to the man she
accepted as her husband. 1t contained
the following passage: You will bear
the name of our tribe, and be right
proud of it. You will be as we are, but
far greater than we. Your life will be
all wandering, change and adventure.
One soul in two bodies; in life or death
never long apart" On her engagement
to Sir Richard she gave it to him under
circumstances equally romantic. Lady
Burton adds: "All that Hagar Burton
forctold came true, and pray it may
be SO to the end, namely, never long
apart in life or death"
