yertisements. And there is no denying the
fact that the announcements of the present
day do much toward making the paper moro
slightly and add to its general appearance.
Ad writing is an art. Not that every adj
yertising man is an artist but every good one
is. There are among the ad writers guild
many princely paid men. know one firm
that pays its ad writer 1000 DER month. 1
could name you many ad men who receive
$4,000 per annum, so you can conclude that
when men receive such salaries they must
know something. They must be able to i'm
press the readers and their employers. Such
men are valuable, and firms paying these
salaries would increase the pay of these men
rather than lose their services.
FORTUNES SPENT IN ADVERTISING.

cellent writings, now writes his name as a
member of one OF the largest clothing con-
Germs in this country. This mans lads" are
clear and catchy, and he writes volumes In a

realized in him gem, and we'll understood
that if thsF did not appreciate his merit some
other hrTs might.
ForsuSes are spent every year-yes. every
day o. aae year-for advertising, and If it did
not pay merchants they would not go to the
trouble and expense of continuing il. That
it requires much brain work to eke out new
Eleas each day Is readily conceded.

only ps~essary to advertise and the dollars
come fAIihg in: 1t requires constant dinging

concarS<, those who have become rich,
whetb a. they would discontinue advertising
and they would consider your question far

scrofulous taint of the blood from
childhood, which. however, remained
dormant. An ulcer began on the
side of the nose, having all the ap-
pearances of n most malignant cam
Ger. The agony of mind l suffered
cannot be described as | contem-
plated the progress of such malig-
nant disease. Finally l was induced
TO try Foley's Sarsaparilla. 1t APP
peared to neutra.ize the poison in

to loosen and the natural flesh to
take its place. No part of the dis

Cautious Mr. Harrison.

Gen. Benjamin Harrison, of In
diana. according to all indications.
says the Chicago Post, has his bark
upon the presidential sea and is en-
deavorinT to steer a middle course.
He is trifle afraid of Scylla on the
one hand, and is not exactly satisfied
with the appearance of Charybdis on
the other. The man of decided opin-
ions, he fears. might be wrecked
upon either. In fact, an expressed
opinion is too often fraught with
danger. A man may say too much
or too little for his own good. His
tory is full of cases where this has
been proved true, especially in this
country. and Gen. Harrison is stu
dent of history. Wherefore we find
him very cautious in the following
interview in the New York Times:
To the reporters question. '.You
will probably have noticed in the
New York Times that Senator Carter
has made the statement that the re-
publican presidential candidates in
order to secure the SO electoral votes
in the silver states"
..You will excuse me-" interrupted
Gen. Harrison, half rising from his
chair and throwing some of his torn.
up mail in the waste basket. ..but il
you are going to ask me to make any
comment upon that statement
must decline. l have absolutely
nothing to say on public questions.
Those were the words of eau
tious man who wishes to antagoniZt
no one. Whatever may be said o.
him, he will not make the mistake
that some others have made.
