The Rebekahs agreeably surprised
the Odd Fellows last Monday night.
After the regular session Of the lodge
had been closed the Rebekahs, with u
large number of friends marched in and
took possession Of the lodge room. The
occasion was the fourth anniversary of
the institution of the lodge and to show
their appreciation of the many favors
shown then, by the ''boys, the Rebekahs
got up this party to celebrate the event.
They also presented the lodge with
pedestal covers of different colored
velvets, which helps very materially to
beautify the lodge room, and the boys
extend hearty thanks for this nice pre-
sent. Speeches by the Odd Fellows was
first on the program and then followed
a hunt after problems, which had been
hid and stuck around the room by the
ladies, while some amused themselves
playing authors, dominoes, checkers,
etc. Miss Laura Retzlaff captured the
plize for finding the most problems,
while Fred Mayer captured the BOBBY
prize for finding the least number.
About II o.. ! ,ck the ladies served up a
nice lap supper and altogether it was
one of those enjoyable affairs for which
the Rebekahs are noted for getting up.

ADVERTISING.
It Is One Of the Most Ancient OF All tn,
Civilized Arts.

It Is One Of the Most Ancient Of All the
Civilized Arts.
1t is generally believed, by the simple
ard u:iearned, that the art Of advertis-
ing is If comparatively modern inven.
tiou, bat very slight study Of the sub
ject will be sufficient to convince the ln-
quirer that it is, in point Of fact, one of
the most ancient Of all the civilized arts.
Indeed, the first advertisement was prob
ebly cccyal 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 tho apple by means Of o puff para
graph" setting forth the merits Of the
fruit as Il complexion beantifier. Be that
us it may, the uses of advertisement
were known at very early date to the
Israelites. who were accustomed to
placard the streets of their cities with
the utterances Of kings aud 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-
inationS unless he were accompanied by
amusician 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 deities 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 rider
was usually added, to the effect that
should the property be returned, or rec
ompense be paid, the owner would i'll
tercede with the gods for remission Of
the punishment.
The Romans also made use Of the
town crier to proclaim laws. victories.
or sales, and the walls of the streets
were covered with notices painted III
black or red, or inscribed upon terra
Gotta slabs, and let into the pillars on
either sitie Of houses and shops. Many
q these wall advertisements were found
in Eercnlaneuln and Pompeii, among
the most Interesting being ti.o ;nncaace-
ments Of the gladiatoria] games. contain
ing promises that shelter would be pre-
vided in case Of rain and that the sand
would be watered should the weather be
