The Fighting swiss.

The year 1912 saw the Swiss mercena.
ries at the zenith of their power, when
waving Austria and France alike away
from Milan, they installed therein the
ruler of their own choice. In the same
year they met the Landsknechts at the
passage Of the Oglio and Ticino, and,
fording the rivers stark naked, beat
them back without waiting even to
dress themselves. A ,1Iw months later
they showed even more magnificent in
science when besieged by the French in
Novara; throwing the gates open, they
begged the enemy not to be at the pains
OF making breach, but to walk straight
in, "Donnez-vous done Ia peine den
trer." The French made no reply, ex-
cept to hammer away with their artil.
lery, whereupon the Swiss mockingly
hung the breaches with sheets as suffi.
cient protection against SO feeble foe.
Shortly after arrived re-enforcements
from Switzerland, which, without paus-
ing to rest more than an hour after q
long and hurried march, dashed out in
disorder against the encompassing troops
and dispersed them with terrible loss.
IF We could only reckon upon obedi.
ence in our men," said the Swiss lead.
ere, 1--WE should march through the
whole Of France. "-Macmillan' q Maya.

TO consult Gov. Taylor on the po-
litical situation and the democratic
nomination for governor Of Tennes-

annoyed ut the way the newspapers
misconstrued his position relative to
the nomination. People had read
the interviews had with him BY re-
portsrs and had endeavored to make
ft appear that he was insinccre in
saying that he WAS not . candidate
for the nomination. He had. he said,
expressed his honest convictions,
and did not want to appear in the
light Of . candidate in any sense Of
the word. He could not afford TO
enter into any scramble for the NOM
ination and would not. He only
meant to say In his conversations
with the reporters, when they asked
him whether or not he would accept
the nomination. that II Il was ten

ADVERTISING.

e u Ono q tie Mose Ancient q An TIE
Civflissd Arts.
It IL generally believed, by the simple
and unlearned, that the art of advertise
ing IL Of comparatively modern inven-
ton, but very slight study Of the SUBJ
tect will be sufficient to convince the in
quirer that it is, in point Of fact, one of
the most ancient Of all the civilized arts.
Indeed, the first advertisement was prob
ably coeval with the first man who had
something to dispose Of or with the
first woman who wanted something she
had not got. It seems not impossible
that the serpent tempted Eve to partake
Of the apple by means Of puff para
graph. setting forth the merits of the
fruit as complexion beautifier. Be that
a. it may, the uses Of advertisement
were known ut q very early date to the
Israelites. who were accustomed to
placard the streets Of their cities with
the utterances Of kings and prophets.
The ancient Greeks. too. were much
given to advertisement, chiefly through
the medium Of the town crier, who,
however, was not permitted to offend
the ears Of the citizens with his prOcla.
nations unless he were accompanied by
musician to give him the correct pitch.
The fact that property had been stolen
or damaged was made known by means
Of curses. inscribed upon sheets Of lead.
which were affixed to the statues of in.
fernal dcities in the temple, the venge.
ance Of the gods being thus invoked
upon the persons who had. stolen or in.
jured the advertisers goods. A ride,
was usually added, to the effect that
should the property be returned, or rec.
ompense be paid. the owner would in.
tercede with the gods for o remission Of
the punishment.
The Romans also madc use Of the
town crier to proclaim laws. victories
or sales. and the walls Of the streets
were covered with notices painted in
black or red, or inscribed upon terra
Gotta slabs, and let into the pillars Oh
either side Of houses and shops. Many
Of these wall advertisements were found
in Herculaneum and Pompeii, among
the most interesting being the announce
ments Of the gladiatorial games, contain
ing promises that shelter would be pro
vided in case of rain and that the SAND
would be watered should the weather bt
exceptionally warm.-Cornhill Maya
