Summer Advertising Pays.

An ancient and venerable theory held
in high esteem for many years by adver-
tisers was that it was of no use to adver.
| tise in dull seasons, that there was no
business to be obtained, and that there
| fore it was waste of time and money to
try and get it. This was good theory
| as long as everybody believed in it. But
along came a shrewl fellow who did
some thinking out of the rut. He had a
new theory. 1t was that there was al
ways business, that people had to eat
things and wear things in summer as
well as spring, autumn or winter, and
that no matter how much or how little
business there was the wide-awake man
would get the lions share of it if all the
other men were asleep. He put his
theory into practice and it worked beau
tifully.
That was the end of the old theory. 1t
isn't very hard to see why What bust
ness there was was scattered widely in a
less volume than in the busy season.
But the summer advertiser attracted the
business. 1t came away from others
and concentrated around him until there
was a very large volume for him. Then
there was another result. Buyers had
not been encouraged before. No one
had taken the trouble to show them that
there were just as good bargains in the
summer as in the spring-better, in fact,
for the reason that prices are always
lower after the first rush of the "busy
season." The man with the new theory
gave them announcement to come and
buy, and he reaped handsome profits,
while his sometime competitors be-
mOaned more than ever poor bust
ness"
Now, every live business man knows
that to keep in the race at all he must
advertise in the summer as we'll as at
other times. Here in New York within
two weeks a big furnishing house start
ed special sale of clothing. How eff
fective that sale was and how much re-
suited from proper advertising a letter
from the firm printed in the Press of
Monday shows. One of the biggest dry
goods stores in the country will start
special sale tomorrow which will prob
ably last all through July and August.
The right sort of advertising pays. 1t
pays all the time, winter and summer,
spring and autumn. The man who does
not advertise is practically shutting up
shop. His business gets dry rot. Adj
vertising, when placed in the columns of
as widely read and as valuable a medi-
um as the Press, puts snap and life into
trade. It makes business come with
dash and profits pour in with a rush.

The First Half of 1895.

The first half of 1895 has been re-
markable period of financial and mercan-
tile reconstruction. The two quarters
into which the halfyear is divided pre-
sent striking contrasts. From Jan. 1st,
to the end of March business depression
based upon financial uncertainty was
pronounced; from April to date, recov-
cry has been sharp-three short months
have changed completely the aspect of
business generally. With the adjourn
meut of Congress and the contract of
the government with the bond syndicate,
long repressed industry revived; depict
ed stocks of goods were far below the
brisk consumptive demand which set in
all over the country; prices of staple
commodities have risen buoyantly; al
most every department of manufactur-
ing industry is busy; more than a quar-
ter-million workers have had material
advances made in wages, by far the
larger part voluntarily, and, best of all,
the half year ends with distinct indica-
ton that the last agitation for cheap
money is failing rapidly. Success of
such agitation depends upon popular dis
content by reason of hard times. With
revived industry due to confidence in the
currency the free coinage propaganda
makes little headway.
The treasury gold reserve is restored,
the contract with the syndicate insures
immunity from drain of gold until the
natural and seasonable movement of
goods can take care of the trade situation,
foreign purchases of American securi-
ties have been resumed and on a large
scale. capital is going freely into invest
ment, loans of banks are increasing, con-
fidence has returned. Thus the first
half of 1895 presents the sharp contrast
of finance and commerce at their lowest
and also at their highest noiut in years,
so rapid has been'the revival So strik-
ing movement IN so short period rare
ly has been seen. The best feature is

Too Much Country.

General Longstreet, in telling of
some OF his experience in the war
the other evening, said that during
the campaign of the Peninsula he
never had an opportunity Of Sleep
ing except as his corps was passing
him. One night, as he had dis
mounted, leaving his horse in the
charge of his orderly. and going
down into the angles of one of
those Virginia fences, he overheard
two soldiers talking, which inter
ested him considerably, and, in
stead of sleeping, he listened to
them. One soldier said to the
other: 81 suppose it's all right that
we should march all night and fight
by day. OF course, it is right that
we should do that, for the love of
country, if nothing else. l suppose
that we should be poorly clothed, as
we are, for the love of country. We
should endure it. | suppose that
to be poorly fed as we'are, we should
suffer for the love Of country, OF
course we should do that. And |
suppose, when you come to that,
that we should die, if necessary, for
the love of country. I am willing
to. But there is just one thing that

The Contaminated oyster.

pressed the New Haven oyster
trade a few years ago has led to
the invasion of the privacy Of the
British oyster and to searching
investigation of his habits. He
was accused of spreading typhoid
fever by devouring the microbes
floating from contiguous sewers.
Professors Herdman and Boyce, his
examiners, were able to assure the
British Association, shortly before
it partook of feast of Colchester
natives offered to it, that though
not free from faint, the oysters
character is much letter than it
is commonly believed.
They have observed the oyster
under trying circumstances; they
deprived him OF his natural diet
OF protophyta and PROTOCOL and
fed him on sugar, on oatmeal,
and flour, whereupon he pinned
away and died. They put him
in stagnant water and found he
could not live in it; then they
tried sewage, which he could stand
up to a certain degree Of foul
ness, preferring the ordinary aind
to that containing typhoid mat
ter; nor did he seriously object
to certain quantity OF pepto-
nized broth. The crucial test,
however, that of most interest to
the observers and most creditable
to the oyster, was his behaviour
in the presence of heterogeneous.
Though evil communications cor

OF the mouth of drain he will
take in as many as 1900 microbes,
but does not receive them into
his true inwardness if he can help
it. The greater number remain
in the pallial cavity, between the
real oyster and the she'll. He ad-
mits the Bacillus typhosus with the
rest, and will let him stay fort
night if he will, but will not let
him propagate or increase. On
the contrary, the experiments
indicate the B. typhosus disappears
as he passes along the oysters

prejudice against the British oyster
will sympathize with his efforts to
get away from that viscid solu-
ton Of copper.

wrong has none the less the

Give him plenty of air and salt
water to wash himself out with
and he will shed all microbes.
