How much money is spent annually
in newspaper advertisingT Probably
any estimate less than 5000, 600. 600
would fall short of the facts. Some
single firms have spent as much as
$500. 900 in year. To put out such
enormous sums requires large ma
chinery in and out of the advertisers
offices, and the business-or the art,
as you may choose to consider it-com-
mands the services of men of a high
order of ability.-John Irving Romer's
Lecture.

HORSES AS BAIT.
The Catching of Leeches in the Lake {
Popolias.

The Catching of Leeches in the Lake of
PopoIias.
The human brutes in American cities
who occasionally are brought to JUS
tice by local societies for the preven-
ton of cruelty to animals are angels
compared with the 1eech fishers of
Greece. Old, worn-out horses are
bought by them for song in the
Greek cities and villages, and are used
as living bait for the swarms of leeches
that infest the mud lakes of Attica
and Boetia. Great masses of these blood
suckers cling to the helpless animal,
their operations generally exhausting
the victim in less than an hour. As
soon as the horse is able to move again
he is subjected to the same slow, kill
ing process, until he finally succumbs.
And this in an age of Christian cul-
ture and enlightenment, when reform
ers and champions of love and mercy to
man and beast are deafening the world
with their cries of progress and theo-
ries of moral evolution. In the lake
OF Popolias during the summer months
the fishermen manage to earn in this
way about twenty francs per day.
Here the annual catch is an enormous
one, much greater than in the famous
leech marshes of Essegg, in Slavonia.
In other countries, and especially in
the United States, leeches are pro-
cured and reared in a more humane
manner. In a leech farm near Newton,
l.. l., for instance, there are large
breeding tanks or ponds, each one and
half acres in extent and three feet or
m lore in depth. The bottom is COM
posed of clay and margins of peat. The
cocoons are deposited in the soft peat
from June onward the chief enemies
being mushrats, water-rats and water
screws. which dig the cocoons out of
the peat. The adult leeches are fed
every six months on fresh blood placed
in linen bags suspended in the water.
Leeches which have thus been filed
with blood make good breeders.
Leeches, like many other annelids, can
be kept alive for several years without
food in vessels of pure water.-Chicago

A Shopper who Came Near Being Buyer
But Managed to Escape.
Over the ribbon counter of 3 big store
hung one festoon bright enough IN
color to attract the rowing eye of one Of
New Yor1's luxurious matrons. The
morning was suItry, and the busy clerks
were too tired and cross to answer
leisure1y questions with their Usual
suavity, but the matron was interested
and not to be put of by snappy replies.
After a prolonged gaze at the bright
hued ribbon, she drawled, in most
provokingly-unhurried way:
Name of that?"
'sNamel Mean name of the color?"
s'Yes.
"Phlox'
Another prolonged gaze, during
which the energetic young woman be-
hind the counter waited upon one or
two more decided customers, deity
measuring off yards of ribbon. Then
came again the provoking draw1:
''Think that is wide enough for col
lar and belt?"
Crush collar and belt?"
Eyes, crush collar"
'sThat is about the width"
A long pause, devoted to contempla-
ton.
'Three-quarters enough?"
''Yes, if you have rosette."
''More for ends?"
''Takes yard if you have ends"
Period of silent cogitation.
whats the price,"
The black-eyed clerk, who was not
"divinely tall" strained her arm in
vain effort to catch the roll which
hung just beyond her reach, and a
friendly voice from neighboring
counter cried, ''Forty-fve cents"
'Forty-five cents, madam" repeated
the saleswoman in tone calculated to
suppress further inquiry.
Madame was unconscious of offense,
and took more time for consideration.
Think narrower width would do?"
An expressive shrug, followed by
eyes, if you like 'em narrower.
well, give me yard of that"
''Sold at the center counter, further

This was too good chance to be lost
by the shopper. She cheerfully walked
the other way in search of more infor-
mation.-N. Y. Times.

KNOWLEDGE

OSAGE CITY ITEMS.

Mr.. Editor:-Please allow space in
the columns of your valuable paper for
me to say that | am running a meeting
as yon may know from my last writ
ing. The increase was not very great;
but it ended in unifying the church and
starting her OH the Heavenward road
again. The meeting resulted in the re-
turn Of three backsliders to the church,
six conversions and on last Sunday I
baptized five, making eight additions
10 the church. The meeting has closed
now that the warriors may rest and re-
fresh themselves for another glorious
battle against our adversaries-satan
and his host.
Usage City and her people are alive,
yet, times for US during the past three
months have been very dull owing to
our building and not knowing what
was before US, so we are behind on eur
money matters; but if God lets us live,
we are coming to the front next year.

JNDEPENDENCEIT ITEMS,

The ladies of the Second Baptist
church served supper last Wednes-
day evening in the hall two doors
north Of the Opera House, with fair
results, realizing about $l40O, for
the benefit of the church, which we
hope will soon be completed.
w, ID. Driver, editor of the Kansas
Blackman, addressed large and en-
thusiastic audience at the Opera
House, last night. Mr.. Driver is a
staunch republican, he spoke in the
interest of our race, and right to the
point, and should he continue to ad-
vance in the steps already taken, it
will not be long ere he can claim the
right to rank among our "distin-
guished.n
The many friends of Mrs. j. w.
Oglesby, will be panied to hear that
she is seriously sick, the victim of
Typhoid Malaria fever, at the home
of her brother in Kansas City. Mr.
Oglesby left for Kansas City Tues
day, and Friday telegram came for
Grandma Wilson, who left at once
for the bedside Of her sick daughter.
We hope the case is not as serious as
reported.
Mrs. Mamie Brown, of Winfield, is
visiting in the city.
Mrs, W. T. Montgomery, who has
been visiting for the past week in
our city, is preparing to leave for
Oklahoma City, where the Rev. w.
I. has charge of the A. M. E. church.
We regret her departure very much.
We had the pleasure Of visiting
the Second M. E. Sunday School
last Sunday, and found it in flour
ishing condition, with J. Wander
ford as superintendent. He seems
to take great interest in the Sunday
School work, and fills that position
in a very creditable manner.
The NATIONAL BAPTIST WORLD is
gaining notoriety among the promi-
nent citizens of our city as tn" news
