Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making a better
article 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, 80 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 promin-
emily before the public both are GER
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgement on them
and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale on
Cham erlani's Cough Remedy. The
people have been using it for years and
have found that it can always be de-
pended upon. They may occasionally
take up with some fashionable novelty
forth with exaggerated claims, but are
certain to return to the one remedy
that they know to be reliable, and for
coughs, colds and Group there is moth
ing equal to Chamberlani's Cough Re-
medy. For sale by all druggists.

NEW YEARS
OBSERVANCE
The Custom Comes Down To
Us From Earliest Times.
GIFTS AND FESTIVITIES
Mark the Celebration of the Day In
Most NatiOns-The Religious Sig
nificance Of the Day-New Year
Calls Here and Abroad.

Written for the HERALD.
The custom of celebrating the first
day of the year by some religious
ceremony, accompanied by festivity
aud general rejoicing, appears to have
prevailed from the earliest recorded
time. With the post-bi blical Jews the
new year commenced with the au-
tumnal month Gisri (September), the
first day being celebrated by them
with considerable ceremony. The
Rom ans made an especial holiday of it,
Offering sacrifices to Janus, whose
principal festival occurred on that day,
and taking care that all they thought,
said and did should be pure and favor
able, since everyth thing was ominous for
the occurrences of the whole year.
They appeared in the streets in festive
garments, exchanged kindly saluta-
lions, and gave to each other presents
called strenae, consisting of gilt dates,
fig, honey coins, having one side the
double head of Janus, and on the other
q ship. The custom of bestowing
presents was made by some of the
emperors an important source Of their
revenue, until modified by q decree of
the emperor Claudius. The early
Christian emperors, however, conti-
nued to receive them, notwiths stand
ing they were condemned by the
ecclesiastical councils, on account OF
the pagan ceremonies at their presen-
tation.
In France, Germany and Great Bril-
tain fess sing and gift giving still pre-
vail, sshough the abundance of Christ
mas giving has interfered in New Eng
land with New Year presents. In many
countries Dec. 81, 'or st. Sylvester's eve
Is celebrated zealously and generally,
the entertainment being kept up until
after midnight when New Year is
ushered in with congratulations, COM
pliments, visits, and good wishes for the
year.
In modern times the Methodist
church perpetuates the primitive GUS
tom in the s'watch-meeting, in which
the half-hour before midnight is spent
In solemn silence and reflection; and
the stroke Of the hour, which seems,
with some solemn cadence, to divide
between the present and the past, is
followed by q burst of praise. It is
certainly a most picturesque custom,
and. has more appropriate fitness
tn an that of spending the same time
in the gaiety of the dance.

suddenly on him where he sat enjoying
an oyster feast. They We're as much
surprised as he. Having no weapons,
they did not know at first what to do
about 1T. The big bear looked up from
his oysters and fish, growing angrily
at the interruption. and this act of de-
iiance on his part rilcd the cattlemen,
and they determined to give him a
taste of '.cattle-whipping." One of
them rode swiftly past him, giving

When measurements of property, or
city streets, are in any way compli-
Gated with materials measured by the
United States standard, an allowance
must be made for the difference in
standards, the same difficulty arising
as i'll the cas- of two standards of val
ue. For this reason, when contracts
with the city are drawn up by the sur
vey bureau a clause is inserted calling
the attention of the contractor for city
work to this discrepancy of standards.
No ase of dispute has vet arisen as
to a property line in which the differ
ence in standards of measurement has
been brought in question. The courts
have, however, decided that the loca-
