New YORK. Feb. 12.-The Americans
are generally given the palm in the
matter of advertising. They are so in
geniouS, so daring, SO wonderfully
quick in catching an idea that their
English cousins are mot in it, when it
comes to attracting the tltful attention
of a caprici0uS public and retaining i
for short time when it is caught. We
heard of a case, however, where the ad-
VertiSer was a son of solid. ruminatiye,
slow-mOving Britain, where the adver-
tised article was a production by a
somewhat extensively, gratuitously adj
vertiSed Briton, viz: A man named
Shakespeare, and where the scene of
advertisement was remote little dis
trict called Wales. Now, Wales
is primitive and it is simple: it
clings to national costume for its
peasantry: has language of its
own, so difficult of photography; that it
proves itself unprOgreSSiYe not to have
recognized it or adopted another. 1t is
fact, pretty unSophisticated spot con-

an enterprising theatrical manager.
wanted to produce the time honored
play Hamlet in this rural district.
He found that the simple Nelchmen
had heard of it before and were not SO
violently attracted as he wished them
to be; merely looking upon it as a story
of young man of deranged mind who
unsettled the matrimonial prospects of
a young woman with suicidal tenden-
cieS. The advertiser was willy man
who knew the world and human nature:
so seeing the want of interest in the
play, he wrote to several of the leading
papers. expressing a doubt as to the
morality of Hamlet" The matter was
taken up, controversies enSued. and the
stronger the doubt became to the doubt

interest in the play; the theaterS were

GLOVES AND BOOTS.
They Are Serious Items in Il Girl.
Dress Allowance

They Are Serious Items in q Girls
Dress Allowance.
Gloves, boots and wells are serious
item i'll girls yearly allowance for
dress. Here are the sage counSelS Of a
Partisan upon the method of making
these necessaries of life as durable as
possible u'der the circumstances, SAYS
the New York Commercial Advertiser.
The hand should be at ease in a glove,
and care should be taken to choose
fingers every whit as long as the fingers
of the hand. Well-ftting gloves wear
the best; therefore we find that economy,
elegance and coquetry are mere nearly
allied than may be Imagined.
1t IS science to put on the gloves for
the first time. The hands must be per-
fectly fresh. dry and COOL Afte' put
ting in fingers and thumb fasten the
second button from the bottom, coming
to the first one last. Remove the gloves
from the wrist, and not by the fingers,
and leave them thus turned inside out,
SO that all the moisture may be dis
sipated. When putting away gloves do
not roll, but lay them lengthwise in a
sachet. Place white flannel between
pairs of light gloves. A little new but
ter rubbed on perfectly new chevrette
gloves tends to keep them in good con-
dltiOn. Light gloves can be cleaned
with -four. and rubbed places in black
suede OF kid covered with mixture of
olive oil and ink and left to dry.
With boots, if damp. it is good plan
to fill them with paper and leave TO dry
far away from the fire. Paraffine
is useful to soften leather hard
ened by mud and rain. TO make
the soles of boots rain-tIght and dura-
bic, paint with copal varnish and dry.
Repeat the process twice or thrice. To
prevent the creaking of servants shoes
advise them to place their chaussures
on plate filled with linceed oil and
leave them for twelve hours.
The secret of keeping wells fresh is to
smooth and fold them Immediately on
coming indoors.

The Only American Baronet.

Lewlsvllle (Me.) journal.
The old Pepperell mansion at Kittery
Point, Me-, built over 200 years ago. has
probably sheltered more famous people
than any other house on this side of the
Atlantic, with the exception of Mount
Vernon and Monticello. The house was
built by the first William Pepperell,
great merchant and shipbuilder of his
time, who accumulated vast wealth by
trade, and his mansion reflected the ex-
tent of his means. Facing the sea and
surrounded by great park where herds
of deer disported, the old mansion was
delightful place of residence. The IA
nous Sir William Pepperell, son of the
builder, enlarged and adorned the man
sion at the time of his marriage in 1874.
Thus William Pepperell. the only Amer
lean bar0net, was a remarkable man.
He was the richest man in the colonies,
and had at times as many as 200 vessels
at1oat. He was successful general, as
was seen at LouiSburg, and his political
influence was great.

The commissioner concluded that they

through the corridor, and went out to
escort them into his Office and tell them
not to be afraid.
The corridors of the Federal building
are wide, high, dismal and dark. When
the commissioner stepped out into the
corridor he could just discern the grace
