soMETHING FoR NOTHING.

Church people seem TO think that a
newspaper is run on a purely sentimen-
tai basis. They never place It In the
same list with the hardware store. the
grocery store, the machine shop and
other concerns in which money is in
vested with the hope that 1t will return
a reasonable profit. If they want hard
ware they go TO the store and buy 1t.
II in need OF groceries they select their
articles and pay for them. They never
ask a machinist for a gratuitious ex-
penditure of time and material. But let
them be in need Of advertising and they
trot on to the newspaper office and feel
terribly affronted when told that 1t will
cost them so much per inch or per line.
The business office Of every newspaper
has this to contend with, no matter
whether it be the big daily or the OBJ
scure weekly. The whole idea seems
TO be that years subscription justifies
any demand either for the insertion of
an advertisement or the suppression OF
q piece OF news.
The Church Economist has a very
sensible editorial on this subject. It is,
in part, as follows:
AS the season of church work is upon
us, few practical hints on church ad-
vertising are in order.
The best medium is the daily local
paper, and If the appropriation for ad-
vertising is small, this medium should
be used in preference to any other. AS a
preliminary, the pastor should himself
visit the newspaper Office and discuss
the whole subject with both publisher
and editor. He will be respectfully
treated, and the personal relation thus
formed (if this has not already been
made), will be OF substantial benefit to
the church.
Tell the newspaper people what you
want done, how much money you can
spend and who are most personally
interested, as officers and active mem
bers OF the church, in the expenditures
This group of persons is likely to in
clude several prominent citizens; and
the fact that these are Identified witt

newspaper on its account, will increase
the interest Of the journalists in youi
affairs.

Queen Victoria has expressed the be-
lief that the United States will not last
much longer as a rephblic. She had
better cast her eyes nearer home and
get some fair conception Of the demo-
cratic drift in her own country. Some

function, and should be performed III a
natural way without undue. suffering
Nature never intended that women
should be tortured when doing the one
thing which makes them wholly wo-
manly. The perverson of natures laws
has brought this suffering about, and a
return to right living will stop it.
Nine out of ten women are troubled
more or less by weakness and diseases
peculiar to their sex. 1t is SO because
they do not take proper care of them
selves-because they neglect little ills
and little precautions. A woman in per-
fecuy hearty health goes through her
time of trial with comparative ease. The
thing to do then, is to make all expec-
tant mothers healthy - to strengthen
them generally and locally. The 1nedi-
cine and tonic to do it with is Doctor
