The i'll effects OF the departure OF gold to
Europe have not been felt In Seattle yet.
The Post-Intelligencer advertising coll
umns show more signs of improving bust
ness at the beginning of the fall season
this wear than for three years. We today
publish a twenty-page paper through
pressure of regular business advertising.
In the boom times it was not an unusual
thing 10 publish a twenty-page paper on
Sunday. but it was supported by column
after column Of advertisements of town
lots in new additions opened up far and
near. All that has now disappeared, and II
is a sure sign of steady growth that so
large a paper is necessitated by the in
crease OF advertising brought on in the
usual change of season. by the charging
volume OF business.
This steady growth is not confined to
Seattle. The circulation of the Post-Intel-
ligencer is larger now than at any period
in its history. and the additions come
from every part of the state. The man
agernent OF the Post Intelligencer has al
ways been averse to sensational claims OF
increasing circulation. but the experience
of the past few months fully jusuhes this
allusion TO it, especially as it may be taken.

STRENGTH FOR THE HOUR.

What said the Sibyl?
What was the fortune
She sung for him?
Strength for the hour"
Man of marrow, man of mark.
Virtue lodged in sinew stark:
Rich supplies and never stinted,
More behind at need is limited
Never numbered with the morrow,
Never knew corroding sorrow:
Too well gifted TO have found
Yet his opulence's bound;
Most at home in mounting fun,
Broadest Joke. and luckiest pun:
Masking in the mantling tones
OF mis- rich. laugh-loving voice,
in speeding troops Of social joys,
And in VOlleys of wild mirth,
Purer metal. rarest worth,
Logic, passion. cordial zeal,
Such as bard and hero feel
Strength for the hour
For the day sufficient power:
Well advised. too easily great
His large fleece to antedate.
But If another temper come
If on the sun shall creep a gloom,
a time and tide too exigent.
When the old mounds are torn and
rent,
More proud, more strong councillors
Marshal the lists for en1porors-
Then the peasant bard will know
To put this frolic mask behind him,
Like an old summer cloak
And in sky-bOTn mail 20 bind him.
And single-handed cope with Time.
And parry and deal the thunder
stroke.
