Advertising

The necessity for advertising, which,
reduced to its simple terms, means max
ing business announcement, was pres
ent from the earliest time. Pompeii
and Herculaneum had their advertise
ments painted on the houses, a form OF
publicity somewhat simpler to our street
sign, which is really the most primitive
kind Of announcement, since 1t infiu-
ences but the passer-by. The town crier
was largely utilized in Greece and Rome
1t was not until the advent of the news
paper, however, that the art began to
show that there existed within it's posi-
bilities of growth and development. The
newspaper furnished at once natural
advertising medium "a medium that
could be carried home by the reader, and
which did effective work because it was
read at the f1reside or in the study, in
stead Of being painted on a single house
or bawled forth indistinctly by crier.
The development of the art as distinct
art, based upon recognized principles of
influencing the public, is matter of the
last 100 years. Fifty years ago extern
sive newspaper advertising was regarded
as a luxury; today it is one of the recog-
nized necessities Of trade, business in
itself, having its own experts and spec
ialists, and being constantly improved
in it's matter and manner-Oscar Herr
berg in July Lippincott's.

No Disappointment

So much has been said in laudation of
William ]. Bryan by his political ad-
mirers. of his commanding presence,
matchless oratory and exalted qualities
for leadership Of a great party that we
had our misgivings that the popular ex-
pectations might not be realized. Not
so, however The thousands who lis
tened to his mastery eloquence at the
Fiesta park, Los Angeles, on the Fourth
of July were spellbound. No conquering
hero could receive a greater ovation
than did this doughty warrior of peace
at the hands of the assembled throng
He grew in the estimation of every one
who saw him either on the rostrum or
at the receptions. William J. Bryan is
the commanding personality in the po-
litical field of the present day. He is
the logical candidate for the presidency
of the great opposition forces that will
contest for supremacy in national af-
fairs in the coming campaign of 1900 The
friends Of silver and bimetallism have
in w. J. Bryan leader worthy of the
great cause they espouse.-Downey

Jewish Farm Colony in California

Representatives Of some thirty He
brew families left Philadelphia last week
for San Francisco and thence for Sail
mas valley, Cal, where the projected
Jewish colony is to be located on govern
ment land that, it is said has already
been granted to the Hebrew Agricul-
tural Society of the United States, which
was organized in Philadelphia last year,
and the members of which are to form
the nucleus Of the colony.
The party is to consist of fifteen sin
gle men, five married men with their
wives and children, and ten heads Of
families, whose families are to follow
them when houses have been built for
their reception. Included in their num-
Der Is the president of the society, S.
Dlugoleusky. The society embraces
some 100 families, all of Russian extrac-
ton, and those of their number who
started last week are to be the pioneers
in the colonization scheme, which, he
says, has every prospect of being sue
cess. The colonists are to raise cattle
and sheep, farm the land and grow fruit.
Each adult is to be apportioned the 100
acres granted by the government under
the homestead law, and the colonists are
to bear the whole Of the expense, unless
The herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1893-1900, 1897-07-18

help is forthcoming from several men
of wealth who have evinced interest in
the movement
President Dhgoleusky stated that all
the colonists are taking with them are
tents and few cooking utensils. They
expected to reach San Francisco yestef-
day, and with the exception of six of the
men, who are to be sent forward to Sa-
linas valley to prospect the site Of the
projected colony, they will remain in
that city about ten days, purchasing ag-
ricultural implements and tools and ma
terials for building houses. Among the
colonists are said to be blacksmiths, car
penters. masons, tin roofers and other
mechanics, although during their resi-
dence at Philadelphia all have been
working at tailoring.
Mr.. Deinard states that he visited Sa-
linas valley last winter and he speaks
hopefully of the outlook for the colonists.
The forebodings expressed by the Jew
ish community at San Francisco that the
undertaking is foredoomed to failure he
claims are without foundation. He es-
Inmates that it will take about $500 for
each family to enable them to build
houses, purchase implements and pro-
vide themselves with the necessities, I'M
til they can become established.
The town of Salinas is about 11S miles
south-southeast of San Francisco, in
Monterey county, of which it is the cap
ital, and it is about eighteen miles east
of the town of Monterey. In 1890 the pop

A Medical Warning

All medical men of large experience
have frequently met with cases in which
patients have placed bottle of medi-
cine to their lips and taken a draught
of it's contents in a dark room under
the impression that there was "only one
bottle upon that shelf, when in reality
some other member of the family had
placed other bottles there. In this way
serious cases of poisoning have oc-
cured In other instances wife rising
In the night to give some medicine to
her husband or child has picked up the
wrong bottle in the dim light and ad-
ministered fatal dose, with terrible
result.
Where medicine is ordered in drops,
you should always obtain a medicine
dropper from drug store, and avoid
attempting to drop the medicine from
the bottle, as it requires a very steady
hand and accurate counting to avoid
mistake.
Finally, let me warn you against one
common habit which is closely connect
ed with the use of bottles containing old
medicines, and Is strongly condemned
by oculists. who most frequently meet
with 1.-THE habit of preserving old
medicine troopers which have been
used for dropping fluids into the eye.
Quite frequently powerful medicines
dry in these troopers, and when they
are used some months afterward for
the introduction Of eye washes they pro-
duce symptoms which very seriously
alarm the patient, and which may to
some extent mystify the practitioner

The English and the Mayfiower's Log

Zealots of research who have been be-
wailing the removal Of 1.-THE Log of the
Mayflower" from Fulham to the United
States have been reminded by Mr.. John
A. Doyle that they may dry their tears
because this valuable manuscript (nlore
correctly known as "Bradford's History
of New Plymouth') was printed in full!
as long ago as 1856, for the Massachu-
sets Historical society, under the very
competent editorship of Mr.. Charles
Deane, and has, moreover, been repro
duced in facsimile by Messrs. Ward
and Downey. Mr.. Doyle rejects the
theory of the Times, that the work
which is known to have been in New
England in 1928, found its way to Full
ham, because New England was tech
nically in the diocese of London, and
suggests thatit may have been taken by
the British soldiers during their occupa-
ton of Boston in 1776, when, according to
Mr.. Tyler, Princes library was plumber

been so delivered, weight for weight,
of the pure gold or pure silver therein
contained" He was not required to
deposit pure gold or pure silver and re-
ceive back coins of the same weight,
one-tenth of which was base metal, but
he received back the same amount of
pure gold or pure silver and the alloy in
addition.
This law remained in force until Feb
ruary IL, 1873, at which time section 20
of the act, commonly spoken of asSthe
decentralization act, provided for a,
seigniorage Of one-fifth of one per cent
on gold coinage. But even so small a
seigniorage as one-fifth of one per cent
a cents on an ounce of gold 1t was
soon discovered caused gold bullion to
be exported from the country to coun-
tries where no seigniorage was charged,
and that part of the act whoch provided
for seigniorage was repealed June ~
1874, having been in force but little
more than one year; and from that time
the coinage Of gold has been free and
unlimited in the United States.
If the bullion Is below the standard,
or if it Is mixed with base metals, there
is a charge for the actual cost of raising
1t to the standard, or for separating IL
from the base metals, but there is no
charge for coinage. Section IA of the
act of 1892 provides for a charge of one
half of one per cent for the delivery of
coin on the deposit of bullion, but this
charge Is expressly for the indemnifi-
cation of the mint for the time which
will necessarily be required for coming
the bullion. If the depositor will wait
until his bullion can be coined, he will
receive it back in coin, weight for weight
of pure metal, and without any charge
whatever.
The paragraph first quoted has been
copied in a large number of papers. 1t
is unfortunate at this time, when so
much interest is taken in the money
question, that such unwarranted and
misleading statements find their way
into the newspapers. The great mass
of the people have not investigated this
question, and are liable to be misled
by such statements. An ounce of stand
ard gold, nineteen this fine, will coin out
$3.50. and any person depositing an
ounce of standard gold at the United
States mint will receive precisely $1S 60
for it In gold coin. If he deposits an
ounce of pure gold he will receive $40 81
for it in gold coin; and in either case
there will be no charge for coinage.
Let it be remembered that under free
coinage the value of the bullion Is the
same as the value of the money that can
be coined from it, and that any person
depositing bullion at the mint for COIN
age purposes receives the full value of
the bullion; that is, he receives back in
| coin the same weight Of pure gold that
he deposited in bullion, and without any
charge whatever.

POWER OF FIRE DHF1nD
Ancients Who Possessed the Faculty
of Resisting Heat

The art of breathing fire, of protect
ing the human skin from the heat of
melted metals or redhot iron and OF rem
dering wooden buildings proof against
fire seems to have been practiced from
the earliest ages. Two hundred years be-
fore Christ, Eunus established himself
as the leader of the insurgent slaves by
breathing fire and smoke from his mouth
and Barchochebas, the ringleader OF the
revolted Jews in the reign of Hadrian,
claimed to be the Messiah from his power
of vomiting flames from his mouth. The
priestesses of Diana Paraysa, in Cappa-
docia, as Strabo states, commanded
public venertion by walking over burn
ing Goals, and according to Pliny, the
Hirpi family enjoyed the hereditary
property of being incombustible, which
they exhibited annually in the temple of
Apollo on Mount Soracte. Pachymerus
tells us that he has seen several accused
persons prove their innocence by hand
ling redhot iron, and In 1905 the monks
produced as witness, in the church of
Anglers, an old man who underwent the
proof of boiling water, and that, too, as
their reverences state, from the bottom
of the boiler, where they had heated the
water more than usual. Sylla could not
set fire to the wooden tower raised on
the Piraeus by Archelaus, and Caesar
could not burn the tower of larch, which
was doubtless made fireproof by solu-
ton of alum. The use of certain chem
zeal embrocations, the substitution Of
the fusible metal of Darcet, which melts
at low heat. and the application of
plasters of asbestos to the feet or a
saturated solution of alum to the skin
were among, the arts thus called into
use.-Harper' Round Table.
