a little girl of about { wears of age,
dressed in white. and looking as pretty
as Il picture. came up To the door OF the
White House one day. while her moth
er II aunt stood i'll Tie grounds. APP
%proaclling the usher at the door. she
said:
"Pleasc, sir, l want to see the presi.
dent!.'
What do You want to see the I'resi-
dent about. little girl.:' asked the ush-
er, kindly.
II want to see him about my broth
err Ralph: he's IL soldier. and we want
Inn to come home"
just then General Corbin came along.
and the usher tod him what the child's
mission was.
WANT to see the President. chg said
the bluff old general. We'll, he's very
busy now, but l am going uD to sec
him. and YOU can come along. We will
see what we can do about that Brother
of yours"
The little miss. nothing dauntcd.
went along and was introduced to the
l'reSlu9nt.
What is your name:" the President
asked her.
blanche Richardson
"And what is your brothers. name?"
His name is Ralph Richardson, and
we live in st. Joseph. Mo-; but Ralph
hasbeen going to school at Yale, and lie
Joined the First Connecticut Regi-
ment."
"And YOU want him to come home
now, do you:" asked she President.
Yes. please. sir. Hes been away IN
awful long time"
General said the President, "see
what you can do about this"
Then, STOPPING to the little girl:
II think YOU can count OH seeing that
brother of yours before long"
'Thank you, sir; I'm very much
Obliged" and she made a courtesy
which would have done credit to a
queens lady in waiting.

Houghton went the rounds of all pro-
fcssions, lie himself announcing that
he would first induce to advertise coun-
sellers and attorneys, then surgeons and
gardeners, lawyers, schools and wood
mongers, brokers, coaches and carriers,
in the order named. AS a result of his
industry and perseverance We find that
a motley collection of articles was ad-
vertised in subsequent issues of his pa
per. Among these may be mentioned
OK CUTS, hoops, onions, pictures, feath-
ers, quilts, ghcrlsins. masks, leather,
painted sticks. sweet soap, Scotch Goals
and a host of other articles. 1t is evil
dent that, owing to the efforts of
Houghton, an appreciation of the bcne-
fits of newspaper advertising was be-
ginning to become general. In fact, the
advent and the work of Houghton mark
an era iii the evolution of newspaper
advertising. The style lie introduced
was cumbersome and artificial, but he
impressed on his contemporaries the
great usefulness of the newspaper as an
advertising medium. The advertising
of the next ccntury-the eighteenth
bears the impress of his work. Curl
ously enough, it did not make much inn
pr0yement on his methods. 1t remain
ed for the nineteenth century to ad-
vance the art to a higher plane.-Lippin-
colts.

Dcn.i! was the younger. as You know. But
when Hubert brought lis wife home to
the Priory. all the old love and friendship
was broken up. She and Dcnzil fell in
