LIVING IN NEW YORK..
To Be Comfortable an Income of Over
$1,000 a Year Is Needed.
The Critic Lounger.


The literary hack who poured his con-
Forum, some time ago, answers his crit
les in the current number. The thing that
seems to offend him more than any other
criticism or MS statements is that his crit
les regard 5000 year as a fairly decent
income for a man. That anyone should
think him capable of living So 900 a year
hurts his feelings: ION such an income a
man cannot live In house in a pleasant
quarter of the town; he cannot supply his
of life; he and his wife and children must
forego all the pleasures which cost any
thing to obtain That Is, If he lives in
New York. Here / quite. agree with Mr..
Hack. New York is no place for man
with a family who has gentlemans tastes
and needs, and only 5000 year. He can

line Of any sort. the cut taking its place.
The signature is in small plea caps. and the
three addresses OF its three New York
stores are put in the lower left-hand cor
ner in agate type. 1t Is small advertise
ment, and yet it is very effective advertis-
ing, for no matter how rapidly you are
running through the paper you are bound
to see this little ad. and after seeing it
once or twice you can identify IL in all
places and at the greatest distance.
The other advertisement of the big de-
partment store is necessarily considerably
more pretentious. and. while every word
OF it, except the name and address. is
changed every day. its general appearance
is invariably the same. A head line in good
sized type. twenty-five points or so. going
across two columns; underneath about
eight lines OF italics in eleven point or
twelve point type. also going across two
columns. giving pleasant little daily chat.
and then plunge into two single columns
running half way down the page of descrip-
ton and prices, set in BREWER The two
single columns widen at the bottom into
double column space for the firm name in
script. The advertising of these two houses
is considered by many people the best in
spicuous feature is its individuality and
identity.
A good many advertisers are always try
ing to conceal their identity. They are con-
stantly springing new shapes and set-ups.
Their advertising wears a perennial dis
guise. If your advertising is of such charac-
ter that you have reason to think that peo-
pie will avoid it If they know what it is.
of course your best plan is to conceal its
character as carefully as possible, or. better
still, get something 10 advertise that won't
need concealing. But If you are advertis-
ing something that people want make it as
easy as possible for them to find your ad.
There is an accumulative effect in advertis-
ing which is very apt to be lost if you
appear before the public in all sorts Of
shapes and guises, but which becomes of
great value to the persistent advertiser who
has so well preserved his identity that each
days announcement is but another link in
the chain that binds the public to him.
individuality and identity on advertising,
the individuality so agreeable that the pub
lie will always look for you and the identity
so marked that it can never fail to find
you, constitute two elements in advertising
that are bound to carry 1t great distance
toward success. JOHN P. LYONS.

suffering. He made US with free wills.
capable OF doing right and not suffering. but
capable, also-alas, how well we ought TO
know Incapable. also. of doing wrong and
suffering. II is here. ingrained in our
lives-both are here. We are lIarly over
whelmed. We cry out to God: but God cam
not take back that which he has given US
our freedom 10 choose. Freely we sinned,
freely We must come back TO him. Here he
is 10 help; He has sent His Son, that we
may know, how intimately He is related 10
US; lmmanuel-God with US and in us. He
has visited US; He is our Savior for He
pities US. and wants US. and will have US.
When We see this. IL is not so hard. Sin
and sorrow are here close to us; but God is
nearer. God is fighting on our side against
tnese two, the one cause and the other ef-
fect And the strange. the divine thing
about II all is that, while he cannot-or he
would stultify Himself-make all right by
word, He Is turning sins weapons against
sin, making the very captain of our saliva
ton perfect through suffering; using that
very thing We dread and He hates as the
means by which we overcome sin and come
TO him.
Inc way OF the cross. my dear friends,
Is Gods way of salvation-not the way He
would choose, but the way our sins have
made Him choose-until, as we look at our
Savior, Christ, we see how inevitable II is
Christ, hanging on the cross. because our
sins have brought Him there, and CRYING to
US, as the captain breaks through the enc
mics lines to conquer a way for US. There
is no way but this-the way of the cross.
take 1t up and follow me. and wiring a vic
tory out or defeat. Beat sin with its own
weapons, become perfect like me. through
suffering. But believe that God and I
shrink from 1t, even more than you do: even
as the chiid's pain hurts the mother, stand
ing over Ii, more than Ii hurts the child
Bear your suffering patiently, then; not be-
cause God sends 1t, but because He sympa-
thizes with you in your hatred OF il, and
means, by His love, that, IL you use II
rightly. you may climb to Him by It.
The miracle OF the widows son applies
10 all our sorrows. II you will hold fast to
God-you who sorrow, you who, perhaps
Ike the widow, have lost some one whom
you loved much-bear your sorrow proudly.
because some day. when the kingdom of
heaven comes upon earth, you will see this
same Jesus coming to you and laying his
hand upon the coffin where your sorrow lies
buried still, and will say to you God did
not do this. and he has saved your SON alive
for you-young man. i say unto thee. arise:
and so shall all our losses be made good.
all our pains healed, even all our dead be
raised, because God must conquer Oh,
how hard We ought to work with him
against our sin and the sin Of the world
that the glorious victory may come soon!

OF the four boy train wreckers only one
had received the usual public school edu-
cation, a boy whom his parents in this city
could not control. The other three live in
Rome, n. Y, and while all are bright boys,
all have been truants from school. and only
one has gone as far the sixth grade.
Professor Munro, the superintendent OF
schools for Rome, says:
ut is my opinion that had the present
compulsory education law been in force ten
years ago this great crime would never
have been committed: and / sincerely hope
that active measures will speedily be taken
TO extend the provisions of the law so that
all youths over eight and under eighteen,
who are not lawfully employed. will be re-
quired to attend school regularly. / believe
that this and nine-tenths OF such crimes are

or neglectful, and the State did not compel
them TO undergo the scholastic training
which il provides. In Rome the new COM
pulsory education law is now strictly en-
forced, and there are no truants.

counters present new bargains-or ought to
every time your customers come in. You
are very careful to preserve the identity Of
name and location, and you are equally
careful to have your offerings continually
new and fresh. Carry out the same idea in
your advertising. Change the matter daily,
and yet keep your advertisements so much
the same that anybody who has ever seen
one of your advertisements will always
recognize them.
1t is not difficult to accomplish this ad-
vert.sing identity. Keep the same place in
the paper. Select your position carefully
and then keep il. Adhere to the same gen.
eral arrangement of composition. You can
preserve your identity If you choose by
means of distinctive border or an ever
present trademark-which. however, should
not take up too much space. Adhering to
about the same space each day-except on
special occasions when you may well en-
large your borders-is also good way Of
making people familiar with your announce
ments. Putting your headlines always in
the same type and the text OF your adver-
tisement in some other unvarying type
particularly il you use type not found in
other advertisements-will give your an
nouncements a recognizable individuality.

from Barcelona, Santander, Coruna
and Cadiz for Cuba during the past
week with stores. Eight thousand
cavalry, forming the first body Of
a total of thirty thousand, will be
landed in Cuba before September
goth. Though Captain General
Campos declared that thirty thou

eminent will prepare $500 more,

SAM JONES AT AsBuRY PARK.
He Says He Is Sure of Front Seat
in Heaven.

AsBURY PARK, N. J., Aug. 29.-
Rev. Sam Sones was the star at
traction here Sunday. The morn.
ing text was ''For God so loved the
world" etc. He said in part:
"Women, if you play cards and
don't want your son to be a gam
bier, you're a fool. If / got tele-
gram from my Oldest son today
saying that my wife hada progress
sive euchre party or gave supper
last night, / would wire back at
once to my son, watch mother,
she must be demented.'
''If we can get the saloonkeepers
of New York on the run we can
clean liquor out of the country.
The rum-subSidiZed editors say we
can't keep the saloons closed on
Sunday; that the laboring man
has got to have his beer. They said
Parkhurst, you're liar; you have
yourself, you're failure,
but he went up and up until Sup
Byrnes was compelled
to put in his resignation. 1t is
funny to see the prayers of Asbury
Park and Ocean Grove trying to
run out the devil. 1t reminds me
of the dog chasing the hOg-the,
dog was in front. The devil knows
that he has got control of the cOun--
try as long as the Republicans and
Democrats are in power. Men, if
you don't change your politics
pretty soon you ought to tell your
wives to put your summer clothes
in your coffin"
AT night, in discourse on
fake" Christians, Mr.. Jones said
it did not make any difference
what people said of him in this
world. They. might call him a
fake or mountebank, but he was
with the knowledge that
he would have a front seat in
heaven, where he could sit and
twang his golden harp.
