THE genius Of advertisement. work,
ting in the brain of Brooklyn mer-
chant, has inspired novel Applicant
OF the ancient sandwich man" device.
He has equipped a big Newfoundland
dog with sandwich boards and turns II
loose to wander at will about the city
streets. The dog is unusually large
and handsome. Fastened on its back
is white oilskin coat, fashioned like
an ordinary dog blanket, except that it
is SO long as to almost sweep the
ground, and painted thereon, in vivid
colors, is an advertisement of the bust
ness OF the dogs owner The dog
seems to know his business, too, for he
spends most of his time trotting up
aud down the shopping district of Full
ton street, where the crowds are thick
est. He is good-natured and frater-
nizes with the children who accom-
pany the shoppers. and in many ways
makes himself conspicuous and thus an

MUSIC AT THE FAIR.
Music hath its charms.

Music hath its charms.
There's sure no passion in the human
soul
But finds It's food i'll music.
Nothing so absorbs the atten-
ton, so beguiles the hours and
SO enlivcns an occasion of this
kind to those WHO admire
music. as the strains of melody
produced by a good brass band.
The Society will take extra
pains to provide a suitable musi-
cal program, one that will fasCi
nate by its extent, and general
galety and loveliness. Our Wis,
ltors can thus divide their time
between listening to sweet strains
OF soul inspiring music, and
viewing the interesting features
OF education and amusement that
will abound.
There is a charm, Il power that sways
the breast;
BIDS every passion rcvcl or be still;
inspires with rage, or rail- our cares dis
solves;
Nan sooth distraction, aud almost de-
spair;
That power is music.
The entertainment will not be
confined to musical performances
Dut there will be an exhibit of
Tile Instruments of music, and
The wares, productions and in
VentOns of musical tradesmen.

Such is the spirit of our age
that all that is new, novel and
attractive, in art, science, inven-
ton and sports, must be exhibits
ed at our fairs, in order to satisfy
the people who patronize and
support them. Managers must
recognize this demand and meet
it. The people will not be salts
fed with old methods or scenes.
The panorama must be kept
moving, and new features and
pictures must be presented each
year in order to satisfy the pro-
gressive notions of our people.
The managers of this fair realize
the situation they are in, and
will strive to make it this year as
broad, as high and as splendid as
possible.
Fair week we'll spent brings Joy and
content,
An increase Of pleasure and learning;
But fair week neglected, whatever is
expected,
Brings a year of sorrow and warming:
