THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE.
ADVERTISING PAYS.
FRIDAY. MAY ~. 1898.

We may always learn from the expe-
rience OF others If we are so disposed.
In the matter Of advertising expert
ence is an important factor and the men
who have the most of it are those who
have made great success in some par
ticular line.
Messrs Scott n Bovine, the patent
ee's and manufacturers OF Scotts Emul
sion of Cod Liver Oil, are among the
very successful advertisers OF this coun-
try They have Just erected magnifi-
cent twelve story building in New Cham
bers street, New York. and in a letter
notifying us OF this change this shrewd
business firm writes: 1T may interest
you to know that this new and splendidly
equipped building is the direct result OF
the public appreciation of Scotts Emul
sion You are no doubt well aware that
we believe in advertising, and we are
pleased to take tAis occasion of express
ing our thanks to the newspapers and
other periodicals Of tn country for their
many courtcsies, as well as to say word
about the importaL ce Of advertising any
article of merit. While we naturally
think that our great success would not
have been possible unless Scott's Emul-
sion possessed superior merit, we do not
underestimate the value Of advertising
and we would suggest to every business
man that in advertising he finds the
best and quickest way to public favor.
You are at liberty to quote this express
sion Of our faith in advertising, il you
like, provided, Of course, you also set
forth the fact that the merit of an ad-
vertised article must in the end deter
mine its success. The new home of
SCOTS Emulsion surely testities to the
value Of advertising
Men today in Great Falls who adver-
tise steadily in The TEIBrNE have no
time to complain of hard times or poor
business while the men who do not ad-
vertise are staring all day at their door
ways amy expecting the customers
who do not come, ald cursing their luck
on account Of dull times and no bust
nes-.
Energy always tells, and advertising is
one of the best kinds of energy. 1t works
when the business man sleeps. and it is
bringing custom to his store while he is
busy eating his meals.

ALL the smaller cities Of the state
amongst which were distributed frag-
ments Of the state university at the
grand divvy this spring, are now being
visited by committees on site. Such ii
committee has decided on location for
a so-callcd agricultural college at Boze-
man, and now committee is at work in
MissOula looking over the offerings Of
sites for eo.caled state university.
There are decided appearances that the
scheme will not work, and that there
may be an excellent opportunity to re-
peal the whole blooming business in the
legislature Of %. Governor Richards is
standing in with the separatists, and
will do all in his power to help them to
get money to lay foundations at the
many villages in the deal. But the
state treasury is not in shape to honor
drafts on this account Just now. AS the
governor did not have the courage to
veto the iniquitous bills for separation, he
might recover some of the prestige he
lost at that time, by giving no aid to the
present efforts OF the combine agents to
squeeze money out of the treasury.

IY the lower Mississippi valley $4,000
people are already suffering by inunda-
ton. Two-thirds of their lands was
planted to cotton, and nothing will be
done with it until the season comes for
planting cotton again.--Pioneer Press.
These inundations are annual occur
rences, and yet the government con-
tinues to spend millions in building en-
bankments that are regularly washed
away, instead Of building irrigation
canals up here in the so called arid re.
gion, which would add greatly to the
permanent wealth of the nation and put
stop to floods down below.

and the full grace Of divinity must not
be expected from its pulpits

JAMES GORDON BENNETT, the sole pro-
prietor Of the New York Herald, has
never been credited with being man Of
marked philanthropical tastes or dispo-
sition, and yet he has just declared his
intention to turn the Herald into a CO.
operative concern in which every en-
ploye will have an interest. This plan
has been in force successfully for many
years, the great German paper Staata
Zeitung having been so constituted by
it's owner, Oswald Ottendorfer, almost
from its inception. Mr.. Benefits plan
is very wise and enlightened one, rs it
assures the perpetuation of the Herald
better than any other could, and Mr..
Bennett has no children to succeed him.

TIE NOETU MONTANA FAIR.

This should be the best year for an az
ricultural fair iu this section of the
state. that has ever been known. June
is almost here, and it will be necessary
to stir up interest among the farmers if
the fair to be held in the fall is to be
made success.
By that time there will be great
many strangers coming in who will wish
to examine the products Of the sur
rounding country. To induce farmers
to come to the front with their exhibits
OF farm and dairy products and live
stock it will be necessary to place in
their hands, as soon as possible, lists
Of the premiums to be offered, and all de-
tails about the fet, The committee ap-
pointed by the association at its last
meeting should be busy these days send
ing out literature on these matters, and
should supply the press with notices 90
that the fair may be kept constantly be-
fore the public up to the date Of ite
opening.

.A~ To pENNOlER.

Independence is always admired in IA
man. but rudcness never.
This might stand as an axiom had we
not recently seen ii case in which public
rudeness of very pronounced type was
applauded to the echo. We refer TO the
expletlvcs used by Gov. Flower of New
York when the Long Islanders wanted
to mob passengers who were landed dur
ing the cholera scare. The governor
was entirely right, and his rudeness was
highly approved by everybody except
the blind and bigoted mob.
The case OF Gov. Pennoyer Of Oregon
is little different. He is gentleman
who is playing for points, and who takes
good care not to miss an opportunity to
faunt himself before the public. He
shines as the great smasher of conven-
tionalities, and with all his laundering
rudeness to two presidents of the repub-
lie he seems to have lot OF horse sense
on many subjects. He was certainly
right in sizing up the deliberate purpose
Of the administration on the Chinese
question. and no one who appreciates
downright, hard-headed honesty can
wonder that he was Indignant on ac-
count of the stand taken by some Of the
judges of the supreme court against the
Geary law.
Pcnnoycr has his eye on 90. lie is
right in this. II is going to be "A history
making epoch. The world moves very
fast in these days, and in '9G there is
going to be very active demand for
honest men-mcn who are not afraid to
come out in the clear sunlight and differ
from other people.
There is Just now strong indication
that Pennoyer will be the leader OF the
populists in that year and in the cam
paign which will mako it an important
era in the nations history. lie will prob
ably become their candidate for the
presidency. A great social and political
revolution is under way, the central idea
Of which finds expression in the phrase
America for Americans 1t is a cry
similar to the one which cemented the
great Chinese empire, "China for the
Chinese" and it has for it's aims, not
only the exclusion of the coolies OF the
Celestial land, but the coolies Of other
lands, tho down.trOdden classes Of vari
GUS races, who are coming to be regarded
here with suspicion and dread.
The further aims OF the movement
which is as yet more or less undefired
are thus far represented by theories
more or less vague, and by nothing tha
has the dignity OF a demonstration.
Against this vague and formless thing
are arrayed two powerful political organ
izatlons, the one, flushed with victory
entering upon career OF reform ant
progress such as the entire country de
mands; the other defeated and crest
fallen preparing already for anothc
great struggle for tho mastery. At tbi

Quaintness in Cards.

Among the hew novelties in sta
tionsry are thin. satin-nnished cards,
illustrated according to the character
OF the entertainment to which a
guest is invited. The edges OF these
cards are gold-beyeled The illustra-
tions are often hand done by the
hostess, or according to her orders, in
colors. A table set with service Of
china typifies dinner or luncheon.
Dancing nymphs and cupids mean a
prospective ball. A Japanese dam.
sci in her quaint robes serving the
amber decoction denotes an afternoon
tea. Diminutive kings, clubs, dia-
monds, or jacks, are mathematical of
a card party. The insignia of we'd
ding is ring in one corner over
which cupid hoyers
Other designs are used, and the
hostess may show considerable artis.
tic skill and taste in original ideas by
making her invitations chastely sig
niticant or amusing.

she REMEMBERED HIM.

One OF Those Who In the Pass Had Knelt
At Her Feet.
A young lady entered California
street car recently, says the San Fran
cisco News Letter, and her rich, elab-
orate toilet seemed to attract con-
siderable attention. Drawing her
skirts around her, she gazed per-
;istently out of the window of the
car
On the opposite side sat a neatly
attired young man with very white
hands and an air generally suggestive
IF the clergy He glanced at the fair
vision in the corner from time to
time in a reproachful manner. She
looked furtively at him from beneath
her lashes and with a pretty pucker-
ing of the brow seemed trying to ie-
call where she had met him.
That his face was familiar was evil
dent and finally deciding that he
rightfully belonged to the army of
captives that had laid their hearts to
her feet at Monterey, she concluded
to end his misery by recognizing him.
So. turning with a little start Of
recognition, their eyes met, and she
bowed stiffly.
He seemed delighted, and chang
ing his seat to her side he said:
You are very kind to remember nc"
"Oh, no." she replied with an air
of polite reserve: II recall perfectly
the occasion on which we met"
A few commonplaces followed, and
amboldened at his success the gentle
man said gravely as he produced a
card: II hope You will permit me to
;all upon you again.
She glanced at the card, a wave Of
color swept over her face, and, the

PhOtOgraphing on Marble.

A very pretty effect is gained by
printing photograph on marble,
which can be done in the following
way: An unpublished plate of marble
must be coated with a solution of
benzine, 500 parts; spirits of turpen-
tine, 500 parts; asphaltum, SO parts,
and pure wax, 5 parts. When this is
dry the plate is exposed under a neg
ative, which will take, in sunshine,
about twenty minutes. Develop with
spirits CT turpentine or benzine and
wash in plenty of water The next
step is to cover the plate where it is
intended to be left white with an
alcoholic solution of shellac and inn
merse the same in any dye which is
soluble in water After awhile, when
enough of the coloring matter has
entered the pores of the marble, it is
taken out and polished.

A Frog Story,

In the display window of the Wash
ington Hotel restaurant there usually
exhibited large fish globe filled with
frogs. During the past week there
has been monster frog and several
of smaller size confined in the glass
prison. One of the employees Of the
house noticed that the number Of
frogs has been diminishing daily OF
late, but where they went to was a
mystery that no one could solve. On
Thursday, however, this same en-
ployee happened to glance at the
globe, and was surprised to see the
hind legs of smaller sized frog dis
appear down the throat of the big
croaker He croaked and blinked his
eyes as if the meal just suited his
taste. Experts in the frog line say
that they never before heard of such
an occurrence. -Petaluma Courier.

a Young Texas Hustler.

"Only boz" is very common
phrase, and it generally means that
youngster cannot be expected to
settle down to the serious business of
life and achieve any marked degree
of success
This is mistake. says the Atlanta
Constitution. Frank Hagan of In

several prizes. During his school
days he cultivated three acres OF land
at odd times, producing cabbages
weighing thirteen pounds and onions
averaging a pound each. Tho crop
neJted him enough to pay for forty
eight head OF range cattle.
This year young Hagan has rented
fifteen acres from his father, furnish
ing all the vegetables the family can
consume as rental. He will have four
acres of oats that will yield seventy
bushels per acre; six acres of Irish
potatoes, yielding about twenty bar
rels to the acre; three acres of cab
,bage that have 5000 plants to the
acre. expected to average nine pounds
to the head, and the remainder of

will yield 100 bushels to the acre. He
is also raising large number of tur-
keys.
The bov works only one hand, and
will clear at least 81, 900 for his years
work. He is now offered 81. SO per
barrel for onions, cents per pound
for cabbage, and 50 per barrel for
| potatoes. He takes several agricul-
tura journals, and is quite an au-
thority on all matters pertaining to
farming.
There is plenty of room in the
South for such boys. They are needed
to help the old folks and to advertise
the fact to the world that farming
in this region is money-making
business, when it is rightly managed.
That Texas boy deserves medal.

Those Who Have Lived.

According to a recent writer it is
impossible to give any close figures on
the number of persons who have
lived on this earth. 1t is generally
considered that one person in every
thirteen dies each year. At this rate
the population would be renewed
every thirteen years. Assuming that
the population of the world is 1000
600, 900, and that it has been 1000, :
coo, 900 at any time during the last
6. 900 years, we find that the popula-
tion has been renewed about 46l
times; that is, that 462, 900, 600
have lived on this earth since the
creation. This, of course. is vastly
in excess of the real number, for the
world, so far as we can tell, is more
thickly populated now than ever. be-
fore. Probably If we were to cut
those figures in two we should still be
above the actual number, with a to.
tai OF 23l 900, 900, 900 persons. There
are no figures on which to base an
estimate of the population of the
world IN Christ's time. The census
taken when He was brought up to
Jerusalem has not come down to US;
if 1t had. it would have been of great
historical and sociological value. -

A Vanished PeOD1e.

On the shores of Brittany there is
mysterious relic Of forgotten ages
which escapes the notice of most
travellers.
Far out in the Morbihan Sea
across which legend tells us Arthur
sailed with his knights in pursuit of
the dragon-rises Il little island. 1t
can be reached in a boat from the
coast only in calm sea A Breton
shepherd has solitary hut upon it
and feeds a few sheep
Crossing the grassy slope off which
they browse, the traveller finds him
self at the foot of hill, in the face
OF which has been eXcavated great
tunnel or cave, floored, walled, and
rooted by huge fat rocks.
Some archaeologists say that this
cavern was the work of the Worship
ers Of the Serpent god or Hoa, a race
that has passed into oblivion.
The unlearned traveller knows only
that the mysterious cavern antedates
all history; that the rocks of which
1t is built came from the maitland. 4
distance of more than leo miles in
land. No rocks like them make any
part of the geological formation of
the land.
Even with our modern engineering
knowledge and machinery it would
require vast labor and skill to bring
these enormous blocks of stone and
place them so securely as to dcfcy the
wear and friction Of ages.
How were they brought here by
men who had. perhaps, few mechan-
ical appliances, nothing but the
strength OF their bodies and their faith
in Il strange god?
Tho race who built the temple are
dust. Even their names ages age
persisted from the earth. Their re-
ligon is vanished. These stones are
the monuments ofitheir indomitable
resolut ion. That detics the flight of

The Mexican Way.

can governments in our methods OF
dealing with desperate criminals.
The following bit OF sarcasm from the
Fresno Republican comes pretty
near pointing out the difference be-
tween the effective Mexican method
and the one employed in the United
States resulting in undue longevity of
the criminal classes:
"a dispatch from Mexico shows
how summary they deal with ban
dts in that country. They are SIM
ply identified. No trial, no flowers,
no caids. They haven't time to write
autographs in Young ladies' albums
nor to 'drop into poetry" They are
merely led out before a platoon OF
soldiers, and when the smoke of the
latter's guns has been lifted, there is
seen that grim, determined look OF
reform upon the bandits faces, which
convinces every one that they will
rob no more. Black Bart Sontag,
and Evans and the Amador County
highwayman never opened up bust.
