A larger part of the best advertising is
done in as few words as possible, and we
all remember how one nervy advertiser
published page after page for days of an
unknown notice about "clams," and it
was quite a while before the public knew
the business to be advertised. Another
one has stuck the word Hump" for a
long WHILE and possibly both these men
have made good deal of money by such
catchy words as these, though it does not
necessarily follow that superior ability in
catching the public eye included super
ior article to be sold But it was left to a
down country artist to hit off bright
idea when he painted sign and purposely
misspelled GLANDS" for his customer.
The dealer didn't realize the mistake, but
it caused lot of gossip and the curious
were anxious to see the sign and know
his business. The result was he made
money out of the visitors and sold good
article of CLAIMS in the bargain. Here
are some good ways of letting the people
know your business and there are
Others" but none so good as advertising
in reputable paper, with lots of readers,
and of that class the HERALD ranks
among the best.

find many people with good articles
to sell hesitating about advertising.
They might as we'll hesitate about buy
ing the goods in the first place as to stop
advertising. One compliments the other
all the time. 1t is cheaper to advertise
than later on to hire an auctioneer and
sell for less than cost. And the auctioneer
simply takes the place of the advertise
ment in the end, with much smaller
audience than the paper commands. Any
one picking up a newspaper and looking
over the business columns can easily tell
the prosperous merchants of city.

J For the summer, there Is no better floor

| Good roads and payements are a gem
eral condition of improvement being
characteristic of good government it fol-
lows that our suburban life eau be made
most enj oyable one if the people and
business men, with these conveniences at
hand will exercise their energies in
getting all that is desirable in profitable
and healthful living. And when we are
in earnest about our businesss we are very
apt to advertise ourselves, but if we are
only playing at business there will be no
advertising. The question of advertising
isn't a very complicated one by any
means, being simply talk to your Gus
toners about what you have TO sell, and
when your audience comprises all the
readers of the HERALD, you can readily
see what an advantage you have in such
a medium by which to reach all classes.
The testimony Of all successful merchants
is that constant, continuous, truthful and
breezy talks to their customers through
the papers has been the chief factor in
their success. If a man has the best
goods in the market for sale he is not apt
to be ashamed to say so, and the more
people he can tell it to the better for him
~
Spasms in advertising are like spasms
in every thing else, lasting just about long
enough to start people to talking, and
then when the advertiser SINNERS down
the people find something else to talk
about. Wanamaker is the best talked
about man in the country, and whether
you like him or not, or whether you dea,
with him or not, he sees TO it that you
talk about him just the same. He is al
ways claiming our attention in some
way, and that's the source of his success
And he knows it is the best Investment
of his money when he uses the papers tC
help him. You can't suggest an adver
tising idea to Wanamaker without in
stantly claiming his entire attention
OF course, man so busy in many direc
tions as he is cannot employ all his tim,
in studying the advertising question, a
he looks around for a man to attend tt
that line for him, and when he finds

INSPECTOR MCLAUGHLIN.
Judge Barrett Undecided Whether to Send
 Him to Prison or the Penitentiary.

New York, June 17-Police Inspector William Mclaughlin was found guilty of extortion and brought before Judge Barrett for sentence this morning. His counsel moved that the verdict be set aside and a new trial granted. Judge Barrett denied the motion. Several other motions were made and denied.
 Later Judge Barrett postponed sen tence until Wednesday. Judge Barrett said he wanted to make sure whether the police commissioners had dismissed the defendant from his office as inspector because of the verdict that was given by the jury, or whether they had pro- ceeded against him on some old statute Judge Barrett then said that if he sen fenced defendant to the states prison that the sentence ipso facto removed him from his office of inspector of police, but if he was sentenced to the penitentiary it did not remove him. "The question that I have got to consider" said Judge Barrett, ''is whether I will send him to the states prison or to the penitentiary. !"

Informal Meeting of the Bar.

The Montgomery lawyers met inform ally today and considered the constitu- tionality of the law passed by the last legislature which authorizes the gov ernor to appoint a supernumerary judge to serve in the stead of a circuit judge who may be Ill or otherwise ineligible The soundness of the law Is doubted, in- asmuch as the constitution requires that judges shall be elected by the people The lawyers tacitly agreed among them selves, it is understood that no objection should be filed in the supreme court pleas in a case in which no objection was urged in the lower court. In other words when a kick was made on this score it should not be made after the appeal The new law is matter of great economy and convenience and the law yers are anxious to get the benefit of it if possible.

MEDICAL INSPECTOR KERsHNERS CASE.
Endorsement of the Finding to Be Withheld
 Until His Counsel Can Be Heard

Washington, June 1.-The sentence of dismissal found by the naval court martial against Medical Inspector Ed ward kershner has been announced at the navy department, but Secretary Her bert has withheld his indorsement until the accused officers counsel can be heard in his defense. The charges against Dr. Kershner, who was fleet officer of the North Atlantic squadron, were preferred by Admiral Meade The first declared that he had violated naval regulations in forwarding privately to other officers copies of official documents, which sub sequently appeared in print. The sec ond charge was that of scandalous con duct to the destruction of good morals It's specification reciting that his sworn testimony before court of inquiry in vestigating the first time in the history of the service that an officer had ever been accused of perjury, and it caused quite q sensation. The court sat five days beginning May 1S, at the New York naval yard, and it's record has been under consideration at the navy department since May IS.
 Two weeks ago pr. Kershner and his counsel. Messrs. Choate & Hinsdale of New York, were informed of the find ings and sentence and notified that any thing they had to say would be heard. They have taken advantage of this per- mission, and Secretary Herbert has ap- pointed Thursday morning for the hear ing at his office.
 It is stated at the department that the court-martial was prevented by the regu- lations from taking into account the strongest points of Keshners defense; that the court was debarred from consid- ering the constitutionality of the regu- lations of the animus which led to the charges. There is a strong impression that the president will not approve the sentence, but if he does 1t is very well understood that the case will be carried tn the IInitad StafpS snlnran1a cnilrt

 On the Bunker Hill monument grounds large throne had been erected 25 feet wide, and on a dais directly against the monument and giving a commanding position, were seated the governor grand master, worshipful master of King Sol omon's lodge and other dignitaries. Ar irving at the grounds, the lodges formed two triangles, north and south, all facinr the throne, while the communicates took prescribed positions, forming a cross. and all facing the throne.
 The formal exercises began with a prayer by Worshipful Rev. Edward A Horton, after which Ernest c. Marshall worshipful master of King Solomon s lodge and chairman of the committe. of arrangements. delivered the address of welcome, introducing as president of the day Most Worshipful Master Edwin R. Holmes. The model of the original mon ument was then dedicated with impress sive ceremonies by Grand Master Gov. ernor Greenhalge and Worshipful Mas ter Marshall.

Congressman Hooker Makes Three Silver Can
 ddates Against Him.

Jackson, Miss, June 17.-Hon. Charles E. Hooker, representative of the Seventh Mississippi Congressional district for many years, and who was accidentally defeated for renomnation by J. G. Spen- cer, administration man, last fall, an- nounces his candidacy for the United States senate as successor to Senator George.
 This will still further complicate the senatorial race, and may result in the election of Governor Stone, the admin istration or "goldbug'' candidate. Stones three opponents, Ex-Governor Lowry, Hon. "A. D. Money and C. E. Hooker. are all strong advocates of the free coinage of silver at 16 to 1, and though the state is largely silver such division of the votes as three silver can didates will get may result in the cleo tion of a "sound money" candidate.
