VALUABLE GIFT TO THE
LIBRARY OF CONGRESS-

Prof Thomas Wilsen,- of the National
Museum, has presented the Library of
Congress with eleven very valuable and
interesting Flemish manuscripts. They
were collected by him while he resided in
the city Of Ghent. The writings are on
vellum and bear dates of the fifteenth to
the seventeenth century Nearly all are
legal documents, used in conveying prop
erty.
One Of these manuscripts. although
dated February 2s. 1861. is still well pre-
served. 4 translation accompanies it as
well as the other. IT is an instrument
binding the town of Ghent to pay 500
Flemish pounds to Miss Anna Alegambe.
which was borrowed from her TO settle
the portion of the debt incurred by the
town while under the French government
in the year 1913. Her and her heirs are
promised yearly rent of fifty Flemish
pounds. Prof. Wilson says that these
documents furnish considerable insight in
10 the social life of Belgium and are a
rich mine Of antiquarian law.

Two Pointed Questions An,weres

What is the use of making better ar
ticle than your competitor if you cannot
get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy only the better
so that while our profits may be smaller
on a single sale they will be much greater
in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominently
before the public both are certain to he
tried and the public will very quickly pass
judgment on them and use only the Lat-
ter one.
This explains the large sale on Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The people have
been using 1t for years and have found
that it can always be depended upon.
They may occasionally take up with some
fashionable novelty put forth with ex-
aggerated claims, but are certain to re-
turn to the one remedy that they know to
be reliable. and for coughs, colds and
