Development in Advertising.

In no department of the modern news
paper has there been greater and more
marked improvements shown than in
The field Of advertising. Thereis a greater
display of taste and literary style in the
composition, and an evident effort is
made to appeal to the intelligence and
refinement of the reader. This is seen
not only in the advertisements of the
large mercantile establishments, where
trained skill is employed, but as we'll in
the three line advertisement which is
written by the advertiser himself, and
which, in terseness and directness of
style, can lay claim to great literary
merit. The development of advertising
may yet lead to the establishment of
special courses of training in business
colleges. Already nearly $e5, oo0, 900 are
spent annually in the United States in
newspaper advertising, every dollar Of
which, if used judiciously, has returned
a large interest to the investor.-Phila-
delphia Press.

photocraphins the pead.

It appears that q somewhat morbid
custom exists among the Viennese of
having the dead bodies of children and
other persons dear to them photographed,
and for this purpose the corpse used to
be taken to tho photographers studio.
The attention of the sanitary authorities
having been drawn to the danger of the
dissemination of infectious diseases by
this practice, a decree has been issued by
the Austrian minister of the interior alb
solutely forbidding the photographing of
corpses in studios open to the public, and
the photographing of bodies of persons
who have died of any infectious disease
by professional photographers, eve in
private houses.
Exception is made of cases in which
such photographs may be required for
police or %medico-legal purposes. In the
case of persons who have died of non
infectious disease, the corpse may be
photographed at the private residence of
the deceased, subject to the approval and
on the responsibility of the medical Of
fetal whose duty it is to verify deaths.
This ordinance came into force on April

A Hint for campers.

One season when j was camping H..
Lake Winnipiseogee, N. H., night foaMa
Us in q wild cove, surrounded by dark
swamps and morasses, and consequently
infested with mosquitoes. We disliked
tho place, but the night was dark, we
were on a strange shore, and reluctantly
we pitched our tent. It proved just as
we expected. The little pests swarmed
upon us in clouds. Sleep wasimpossible,
and we devoted the first hours of the
evening to fighting our small enemies.
We smoked cigars and pipes until we
could scarcely breathe in the sitting air.
This they seemed to like, and buzzed all
the more merrily for it. We scented
ourselves and the bedding with essence
Of peppermint, with spearmint and car
bolic acid, which pleased them SO well
that the myriads inside the tent called
upon other myriads outside to come in
and enjoy it. The situation was getting
desperate.
But at last l thought Of IL more ex-
pedient, which had been recommended
but which l had forgotten, searched
through my stores and brought out IL
| piece of gum camphor. Taking piece
about the size of u walnut l placed it on
q tin plate and set fire to it. 1t burned
as readily as pitch, with a bright, clear
flame, and apparently nc smoke. And
it acted like a charm. In two minutes
the noisy hum Of tho mosquitoes had
ceased; in five minutes not one of our
winged prosecutors remained within the
walls of our tent. Then, making every
thing comfortable and carefully cover
ing our one window with mosquito net
ting, VIC went to sleep and slept the
sleep of the just, with never a bite nor a
hum from our odious foes for the rest of
tho night.-Brooklyn Standard Union.

Burnett is occupied in training her little
son as a journalist, and he already oc-
cupies tho editorial chair of little paper

Of little boys in "knickers" and little

Gabrielle Greeley is also in Europe on
her fourth visit. She is a great traveller,
q good sailor and at home a most gener-
GUS Lady Bountiful, and will be a worthy
assistant in her husbands church labors.
Another of the American travellers in
Europe is Miss Mary Garrett, who be-
longs i'll the list of the charitable rather
than the fashionable, whose names by
the score are to be found on the registers
in every part of the Old World.-New

Why women Should BE wa,kers,

The possibility the probability, in
deed-of becoming stout and ill shaped
is the cause of much anxiety to young
women who wish to preserve slimness of
contour. Observation teaches them that
the sex, under its present lazy, ~listless
habits, inclines to obesity. This tendency
to physical grossness is indeed much
stronger among women than men. But
methodical exercise in the fresh open air
supplies the remedy.
A woman may be perfection itself in
graces of mind and in all that pertains
to the toilet, and may be withal the
owner Of q handsome face; yet wanting
u graceful form and a 1.-the movement Of
the body, she loses much in attractive
ness. Is it not strange, therefore, that
women should neglect the cultivation
of these charming personal features?-

womnn's Rights in Austria,

Austrian women seem suddenly alive
to their "rights." A large and cnthusi-
astic meeting was held in Vienna, at
which no man was present excepting the
government commissary, whose presence
is necessary at all public meetings. A
spirited debate evolved the following
resolution to DO forwarded to the reichs-
rath:
THE womc of lower Austria demand
that parliament shall introduce such
notifications into the existing admins
trativc and constitutional laws as will
insure tho following measures:
"First-That the middle and lower
schools be opened gratuitously to wom-
ell, and that the number of professions
accessible for women be increased.
"Second-That women be allowed to
take part in political affairs; that all
Austrian subjects of age and in the en-
joyment of their rights as such, without
consideration for the amount of taxes
they pay and regardless of their position
or sex, shall be entitled to equal and d.
rect parliamentary suffrage"
The meeting was attended by literary
women, governesses, tradeswomen and
working girls.-Paris Letter.

About Printers Ink

This is the day of printers ink, and
the prizes r. for those who use it.
Your traditions and prejudices may be
to the contrary, but the world doesn't
care a fig for them. The man who sits
and waits for his trade in these days
gets left. Don't advertise, don't quote
your price lists, don't see that your city
or your business is represented in your
patronizing territory, and don't stand
up manful1y alongside of those who are
fighting for your rights and interests,
and there can be but one result-shrivel-
ing up. Good statesmen, first class az
ticles, gilt edged credit are not enough.
They are excellent, necessary-but not
enough. Printers ink beats them in the
long run. Uncle Sans mails go every
day, carrying their freight Of special
offers, new crops, long credits, cash dis
counts, job lots and lovers tales from
everywhere. And in the end your trade
is seduced. It's the worldold story of
the honeyed tongue and the open ear.
In the fierce competition of these days
old habits and associations simply can
not stand the pressure. The trade is for
the man who uses printers ink.-Gro-
Gerry World.

A Remedy for Freckles.

In June the festival maiden's fancy
turns to fears of freckles. A freckle is .
small thing, but it won't rub out even
with buttermilk, New England house.
wives to the contrary Notwithstanding.
Still there is a simple application which,
if promptly used on the first appearance
Of the fearsome freckle, will generally
drive it away.
A Brooklyn doctor has prescribed the
application for some years and finds it
more effective than anything else which
he has recommended in his practice.
Here it is: One dram muriatic acid, three
gills rain water, half t~easpoonful of
spirits of lavender. Mix thoroughly. It
should be applied twice the first day and
then three times a day until the freckles
disappear. At rising, before lunch and
on going to bed are the best times for
applying. Exposure to sun and wind
should be avoided as much as possible,
and for some days a veil should be worn
by the patient" when she is out of doors.
The mixture should be applied directly
to the freckles with o bit of soft linen OF
with a camel's hair pencil. A very ten
der skin may at first be somewhat irri-
tated, in which case an extra gn Of rain
water should be added and a little cold
cream used on retiring.-New York Re

A meeting of the Dickinson Hose
Fire Co. was held at the court house
Thursday evening, and matters of I'M.
portance to the company's organiza-
ton were considered. The report of
the committee appointed to wait on
the N. z. company showed the willing
ness of said company to cooperate
with the town company by supplying
water and power and otherwise act
ing an important part in carr of fire.
A committee was appointed to confer
with the purchasing committee with
reference to the kind of hose to be
purchased and in regard to the place

A watcrspout in the Gulf.

About s o'clock yesterday morning q
waterspout measuring nearly $50 feet in
diameter made its appearance in the
gulf, off the southeast coast. 1t was
moving in q northwesterly direction
toward the bay and was increasing in
volume as it proceeded. 1t was seen by
several fishermen and the occupants of a
number of small craft who were in its
course and narrowly escaped being
drowned.
Those who witnessed this nautical phe-
nomenon state that it whirled with a
zigzag motion and sent upward a spark
ling shower of spray which fell in tor
rents into the angry waves 1t wa first
seen shortly after the light rain which
occurred about dawn, and after a space
of about three minutes spent its force
and disappeared as m%ysteriously as it
had appeared.-Galveston News.

Too Much Feminine po,iteue,s.

A street a conductor said young
wome in Washington indulge in a Pc
culiar sort of politeness which is more
calculated to injure the feelings of others
than any rudeness of a deliberate nature
that they could very we'll contrive. You
will often see a girl of twenty odd get
up in a street a to give her seat to a
lady, quite a stranger, who is no more
than middle aged. This is intended for
a courtesy, presumably, but it is a very
silly one. because its obvious intention
is to exhibit a Difference to superior age.
Now, no woman likes to find herself re-
garded from that point of view, and the
worst of it is that it is impossible for the
victim of such a performance to show
any resentment. All she can do is to
decline to accept the place vacated,
which is not very much satisfaction.
81 myself have frequently noticed
women who had perceptibly passed their
first youth Offering their seats to others
hardly older than themselves, 20 that it
might seem as if this was a novel way Of
claiming to be young at some one else's
expense. My observation is that few
people, however old, are otherwise than
mortified by being given seats in this
n on the cars. Old gentlemen are
not less sensitive on the point than old
ladies."-Cor. st. Louis Globe-Democrat

by the famous songstresses Patti and

peculiar jeweled souvenirs of later days,
are the little common toy violin on
which Nilsson learned to play when four
years of age, and a beautifully appareled
doll named Henriette, presented to the
little ~seven-year Adelina at her first
concert in New York. OF considerable
more value is a ring with a sapphire eye,
in which a diamond tear glitters, and an
exquisite ros Of gems, which some un-

Indian Relics.

George Debord, who lives three miles
from Elijay, was in our Office Thursday
and showed us some rare relics which
his son lately plowed up. He first
plowed up some half decayed bones,
which indicated an Indian grave. He
found at the head three tin cups, nearly
consumed with rust, at the feet an old
fashioned black bottle; at the breast he
found several dozen pure silver orna-
ments, made in the crude style Of the
natives, consisting of a finger ring, Or
namented with q shield, a beautiful pair
of ear hobs, q heart with a pin attached,
besides several other Enthusiastically shaped

English Women p,av Cricket,


Most people know what an excellent
cricketer the present governor of Bom-
bay is, but that Lady Harris could also
handle the batin a mastery style-if it
be permissible to speak of a lady's style
as masterly-was not generally known.
Nevertheless this appears to be the case
from the following account Of q cricket
match which is copied from an Indian
paper:
A very successful cricket match was
held at the Glade, Mahableshwur, on
Tuesday. Each side consisted of six
ladies and six gentlemen, the gentlemen
having to play left handed with a broom
stick, bowl and field with the left hand,
one side being captained by H. E. Lady
Harris and the other by Mrs. Won Donop.
Mrs. Won Donop having won the toss,
the game began at 5:15 p. M, Mrs.
Drake and General Sir H. Prendergast
going to the wickets to face the bowling
of Miss Holland and Captain Cox. The
innings closed about Gp. m. for IS; Sir 81.
Prendergast, Miss Morris and Mrs. Won
Dlonop playing we'll and getting into
double figures.
Lady Harris side soon after began
its innings with Miss Kirkham and
Major Curtis, to the bowling of Miss
Morris and Captain Drake. Several
wickets very Don fell for very few runs,
but on Lady Harris going in a stand was
made. Eventually after great excite
ment the innings closed for 63, Lady
Harris side thus winning by 8 runs.
Lady Harris thoroughly justified her
position as captain, playing a brilliant
innings of 46, hitting to all parts of the
ground and winning the match for her
aEde. Miss G. KiFkham also played well.
