er was dead and she had no relatives

The HERALD for one year is worth
anybody's dollar, and as almost eve
rybody takes it anyhow, we are not
much given to offering premiums.
Another reason we do not offer pre-
miums is that the premims offered
us are usually some big "blanket"
paper from some far away city in
which our readers are not much in
terested.
But when a real good thing comes
along, the HERALD knows it and
takes it, as we always want to give
our readers and friends the benefit
of every good thing we can find.
In "Gov. Bob Taylor's Tales" you
will find a real good thing. 1t is one
of the most interesting books on the
market. 1t contains the three lee
lures which have made Gov. Taylor
famous as platform orator-"The
Fiddle and The BoW," "Ihe Para
disc Of Fools" and "ViSiORS and
DredmS." The lectures are given in
full, including all anecdotes and
songs, just as delivered by Gov.
Taylor throughout the country. The
book is neatly published and contains
fifty illustrations.
Now what? Here is the interest
ing part to you. You can get this
famous loork, Wih all its fIR and
pothoS, for nothing. absolutely
nothing.
All you have to do is to pay for the
HERALD, which if you are not read
ing you ought to read, and which if
you don't owe for you very soon will
owe for.
1t does not matter whether you are
taking the HERALD or whether you
are not. If you are not, come in and
pay us $1.OO in cash, and we will
send you the HERALD for one year
and gjre you the book.
If you are a subscriber, come in and
pay all arrears and one year in ad-
vance and we will gire you the book
Could anything be fairer? We
couldn't make it any cheaper to you
could we? OF course you intend to
pay all you owe us anyway, so you
get the book, you see, absolutely
free!
And a nice little book it is. Full
of heart and soul, fun and music
laugh and logic, eloquence and
pathos. This offer will last as long
as our supply of books last; but we
have only a limited supply of the
books, so you had better call early.
n. B.-Parties remitting and or.
dering by mail, must add ten cents
to cover postage.

SANCTUM SENTIMENTS.

Wool was selling last fall at the
lowest price in the history of the
United States. When the iobbers
were assured that tariff would be
placed on wool, they began to buy
and store it as fast as possible. AS a
result there is now stored in the city
of st. Louis several millions or
pounds, gathered from the State of
Missouri, which the purchasers
could to-day sell at profit of over
100000. And this is the way the
tariff protects the farmers.-Bristol
Times.
In spite of the fact that 10000 pen
sioners died last year, the mendi-
cant roll has been run up to 100000.
In short, thirty-two years after the
war, the pension births far outnum-
Der the pension deaths.-Commer-
cial Appeal.
In claiming that the bountiful
grain crop of the country is one of
the fruits of their tariff law, the Re-
publicans are showing how high
they rate the intelligence of the
average voter.-Newport Times.
Prosperity? Why, of course! Be-
hold the bountiful crops and the
Alaskan gold fields. The new tariff
done it."-KnoXville Tribune.
A pleasant correspondent of the
western Christian Advocate" has
been to the Tennessee Centennial
Exposition, and found many things
to delight him; but he is in grief
over the way in which the Southern
people deal with the letter ST." In
some company he actually heard
the expression "Foah dooahs to the
right But we venture the judg-
ment that he did not hear anything
about newspapers" and "institoo-
tions" and "cricks." Nor were hi:
ears greeted with the glad, fam ilial
sound of hadn't orter.n Every Sec
ton of the United States has its Pc
culiarities of speech. The "dia'
lect" of New England sounds strange
in our ears, though not quite a:
much so as the broad, rough speech
of the Northwest.-Christian Ad'
vocate.

Wanamaker on Advertising.

Il never in my life used such a
thing as poster or dOdger or hand
bill. My plan for twenty years has
been to buy so much space in a
newspaper and fill it up as 1 wanted.
[ would not give an advertisement
in newspaper of 500 circulation for
5000 dodgers or posters.
IF l wanted to sell cheap jewelry
or run a gambling scheme, l might
use posters; but L would not insult
decent reading public with hand
bills.
The class of people who read
them are too poor to look for sup
port in mercantile affairs. l deal
directly with the publisher. l say
to him:
How long will you let me run a
column of matter through your
paper for 800 or 500, as the case
may be? let him do the figuring,
and if 1 think he is not trying to
take more than his share, l give
him the copy. l lay aside the
profits on a particular line of goods
for advertising purposes.
AT first l laid aside $1,000; last
year laid aside and spent $4,000.
l have done better this year, and
increase that sum as the profits
warrant it. l owe my success to
newspapers, and 70 them l freely
give a certain profit of my yearly
bushes.
In late years Mr.. Wanamaker's
advertising, Of course, reached much
more'-Fourth Estate.

IN. l.. Moody in Ladies' Home Journal
In the town of Hanover in Ger
many, there is buried a German
Countess who denied the existence
of God and ridiculed the idea of the
resurrection. To further show her
contempt for Christianity she
ordered that on her death her grave
should be built up of solid masonry
and covered by large stones bound
together by iron clamps. On this
tomb was engraved her defiant
challenge that through eternity this
tomb should never be disturbed.
But one day the seed from some
tree, either blown by the wind or
carried by a bird, became lodged in a
small crevice of the tomb, where it
soon sprouted and began to grow.
And then, as if nature had seemed
to mock the naughty intidel, she
quietly extended the delicate roots
of that Seeding under the massive
blocks of stone and slowly raised
them from their place. And now,
although scarce four generations
have passed since that tomb was
sealed, that most insignificant seed
ling has accomplished what God
Himself was challenged to accom-
plish,
