CHEAP ENGRAFINGS.
A Discovery by Winch Every Newspaper Can Llu7trIte Its Own Columns.
 We Have It.

. Irwin II. Mills, of Carlisle, Pa, has discovered q process for making newspaper eagravings that comes within the neach of, and can be used by publishers Of country dailiss and weeklies and which engravings are equal for all practical purposes to the cuts made by the expensive methods in general use in the large offices.
 By Mr Mills process anyone can go into any printing office, find there all the paraphernalia for doing the work and can quickly produce a cut four by six inches in size at an out lay of less than cents. The process is q purely mechanical one, requiring no special skill and but little prac- tice to.reproduce any photograph or newspaper engraving.
 The method is simple, rapid and absolutely perfect; it's points of ad- Yanta&e being it's cheapness, sim plieity, high relief, sharp lines and rapidity. A newspaper using this system can illustrate the news of the week at cost that is scarcely worth figuring.
 The GRAPHIC has obtained the for mllla of this process from Miss Mae Walker, one of MT. Mills agents. Mr Mills. the inventor of the system, si now at Hot Springs,
