matters of general interest few days ago,
says an exchange, when the subject turned
to advertising, and this is what one Of the
oldest men in the group said -
" During my eleven years. experience
advertising retail business, have learned
that it does not pay half as well to adver
tise any other way as it does to put your
money in newspaper space. Some of you
have spent your advertising appropriations
in programmes, menu cards, schedules
time tables, guides, hotel registers, indus
trial books. wall hangers, wall charts and
the like. And ] will tell you frankly that
you are next door to throwing your money
away when you are susceptibal to the
Establishments in promoting patronage for
such schemes.

down firmly that not another dollar shall be
diverted from the newspaper that goes

intelligence / have spent nearly 1900
days studying means, methods and media
essential to profitable advertising, and

University of the United States according
to Washingtonis will and beqest has
been doing good work and it is expected
that the corner stone of the Administration
Building will be laid at the National
Capitol in December, 1899. It is believed
that students at the University OF Wash
ipgton will have unusual facilities for
pursuing special branches of work, owing
to the various collections of natural history
and meteorological and geological data
that are stored at the National Capitol AS
is well known it was the great desire oil
Washington that a National University
should be located at the city that bears
his name, and for this purpose he left
$4,000 in his will this amount being in
canal stock, became valueless as other
modes Of transportation came in use, and
nothing ever was done in this matter to
further his wishes until about two years
ago it was taken up by some patriotic
women, notably Mrs. Richardson, of
Boston Mrs. Hearst, of Washington Mrs.
Calvin Brice, of Ohio, and Mrs. Washing

rights to keep inns and taverns, which
grants TO such corporations in
all things and in all manner the same

pains and penalties as individuals licensed

1891, the present act was granted the
previous license to this corporation, to
keep an inn and tavern, and to keep at
same place and under the same law. 1t

habituaily violated the law under the
act for considerable part of its term. 1t
is now the duty of this court as the expo
nent of the law to refuse this license which
this court does"
