Proverbs for Advertisers.


The firm is dead that does not adver-
tise.
Let your goods be known among all
men.
An effective advertisement is a fair
estate.
a good advertisement keeps off
wrinkles.
\ little advertisement may save a
deal OF idleness.
A world of wealth lies in that one
word-advertise.
Measure your space before you write
your advertisement.
Know how sublime thing 1t is to ad-
vertise and be famous.
Advertising is a constant want, and
should be constant study.
Let thy advertisement be short, COM
pretending much In few words.
An advertisement should be intense
expression of condensed ideas-one
pithy line more pregnant than a windy
column.

Impromptu Stump-Puller.
Can you recommend some cheap
way of clearing a small patch of
stumps? There are not enough to get
a stump-puller for, but l should like
to get rid of them, asks a reader of
The Country Gentleman, and that pa
per answers: Procure a strong iron
hook similar III shape to the iron OF
a cant hook, such as is used for roll
ing heavy logs. Attach to this six or
eight strong links and a ring of six 10
eight inches diameter. Cut a tree Of
some strong flexible wood which is
from six to eight inches diameter at
the butt, four inches at the top and
~ to 80 feet long. Slip the ring re-
ferred to over the large end of the
lever. An iron bolt may be put
thrOus1 the lever so that the ring
will not fall off. Dig away the earth
little from one large root, put the
hook underneath and a span of horses
to the small end of the lever, and
twist out the stump. This will not
handle very large stumps, unless the
earth is removed from around the
stump and few of the larger roots
severed. This homemade stump-
puller should not exceed in cost So.

NOTES OF THE DAY.

The old sewer commission of Lon
don was abolished with the begin
ming of 1898, after an independent
existence Of 23O years. This body
really had control of a large part of
! the municipal work. Organized in
1867, after the great fire to designate
! where sewers, drains, etc, should be
! placed in the section to be rebuilt.
the commissions powers were from
| time to time extended until it had
charge OF fixing the tax rates, caring
for the streets and experimenting the
water supply. All these great powers
now revert directly to the municipal
corporation of London.
Manchester has a strange subject OF
interest at present. The spike-stud-
ded ball which surmounts the town
| hall is said to be the third or fourth
| highest architectural point in Eng
! land; and a keen-sighted person re-
) Gently noticed that a large bird was
! hanging from it, pierced through the
| body by one of the northern spikes.
! The bird, which some say is heron,

| tremendous rate Of speed, and not
| seeing the ball, owing perhaps to
misty weather, have come into ter
rife collision with it.
The hardest lesson of life is that
of trust. And yet, how variously it
is taught to us! This trust is the gold
currency that we cannot get along
without; it is the cement that holds
| society together. The nero is simply
| the man of unusual confidence Your
! Columbuses, who steer right onward
into the unknown in search of new
worlds, are the salt of the earth, the

Cromwells and Washingtons, who are
! for ushering in the ideal common
wealth that has hung so long between
earth and heaven-lhe Great Hearts
whose sword is always at the service
! of timid pilgrims when lions bar the
way, are they not just eXamplars of
the might of faith? If the heart be

and truly done, one needs to go

Clean hands in matters of money
among the young certainly ought to
be the indispensable condition Of
gentleness. No man who borrows
and does not pay, and does not care
whether he pays or not, is a gentle
man, no matter how witty, or gay, or
fine he may be. To speak in good
plain English, the man who dresses
| himself at another's expense, not
knowing how to pay, not caring
! whether he pays, is a genteel scoun-
! drel! And yet such things are done
| by good-natured folk, by kindhearted
people, by persons who never probe
them morally to ascertain what their
tendency is, and what they lead to.

WENT UP IN SMOKE.

A few weeks ago Uncle Russell Sage
set up in New York a financial news
plant for a young man who nailed a
photographic lie that reflected on him.
The newspaper looked prosperous,
but, while it was growing, it was run
ming behind a little. A week or so
ago, when Mr.. Sage dropped in II
look at the profit and loss account,
writes a correspondent, he found $50
on the wrong side of the ledger. The
young man was putting a Park row
perfecto. How much did that CT
gar cost" asked Uncle Russell. It
had been given to the young editor
but he told the old man that it was
worth about cents.
This is downright extravaganza"
cried Mr.. Sage, petulantly. Five
cents a day for 365 days would
amount to $1S.25. Do you know
what that would amount to at COM
pound interest in 10 years-hey?"
The editor confessed that he wasn't
good at figures. We'll stop the pa
per- said the disguised millionaire.
Il can't be beggared by running a
business at loss of $50 a week, in
the control of man who burns mon
ey, as the saying is, smoking scent
cigars. My friend Daniel Drew used
to smoke stogies at 60 cents a hun.
dred, but that was extravaganza, too. ="
And so the editor and the manip-
ulator parted. This is the first in
stance on record Of a paper going up
in cents worth of cigar smoke.

mayed at the tempest she had raised,
but she was too much blinded by con-
ceit to see the full extent OF the harm
she had done. She made some pre-
tentions to virtue. and was conse-
quently vexed that an exaggerated, if
not wholly untrue, accusation had es-
capped her, but rather than own her
self in the wrong she still stood by
it, and though conscience pricked her
into making some useless attempts to
pacify Esperance, she would not re-
tract what she had said.
The breach between the cousins
was in consequence greatly wiiened,
and the effect on Esperance was most
disastrous. She grew more and more
her face rarely lost its expression Of
hopeless suffering, her manners lest
worst of all, Mrs Mortlake's perpetu-
much of their grace and ease, and,
ready to see faults in all around her,
! al fault-fnding began to make her
self-conscious and retrospective. She
gave up even attempting to love her
cousins, and, consequently, was at
| once open to ali those faults from
which she had hitherto been free.
| When love-which had been hel
guard and strength all her life-was
allowed to die, selfishness at
once stepped in, bringing in
it's train false pride, discomfort
suspicion, and a morbid constituencies;
while what had formerly been coura-
geous patience was turned into a
falsely assumed callousness and indif-
ference.
The only things which kept her
from utter ruin were Gaspard's let
tiers, full of the old love and conf
dence-a although her answers were
most disappointing and the remem-
brance of her father Even these
did not hinder her from sinking very
low but they kept one soft spot in
her heart which could never alter.

fully
Gaspard flushed a little.
No, hitherto he has been no friend
to our family, but he has been very
good in helping us now-that is to
say, he has provided for Esperance.
You can understand, however, that
dependence is not altogether pleasing
under the circumstances. | am afraid
it is doing Esperance no good. Did
you think her looking happy?"
1t was an awkward question.
Claude paused for a moment, then
said, Hardly happy, I think; but /
am sure she is inclined to make the
best Of things; she told me that her
motto in life was 'Esperez toujours.' "
Poor child" said Gaspard, with a
sigh.
There was a moments silence, dur
ing which Claude watched his com
panion's troubled face with a great
deal of interest.
His next question, however. was
almost as hard to answer.
To be continued.
