Advertising Always Pays.

Advertising is an indication OF
prosperity: yet too many merchants
seem to believe that without favor
able trade conditions and prosperity
represented by busy minis, plen1y of
money and numerous sales advertis-
ing does not pay. They appear to
forget that from sheer necessity PEG
pie must be always buying some
thing, whether times be good or fl
nancially dull. Being, therefore,
compelled to buy, the next q@estion
with the purchaser is where to buy.
Naturally the merchants who are
not chary in the use of the advertis-
ing columns of good newspaper
will get their patronage. 1t pays to
advertise constantly; the mere pub

Oil instead Of Gas

Hon. f. M. Grant, of Morgantown,
arrived in the city last night and left
for Elizabeth this morning TO look
after the Bumgarner gas well near
Elizabeth, which Mr.. Grant and 9th
ers purchased some time ago for ST.
500.
1t is said that the big pressure of
gas, which the well showed when pur-
chased, has entirely disappeared and
the we'll has filled up with oil, even
making flow Saturday
1t is thought that the well has
drilled itself in and may make pro-
ducer for the owners, who bought the
leases on all the contiguous territory.
The we'll will be watched with much
interest.

WHITE SHIRTS.
They're StiH the ReiGninE FavOrites

They're Stin the Reigning FavOrites
With Discriminating Dressers.
From the Haberdasher's Weekly.
1t is difficult to wean men of taste from
their affection for the white shirt Not
withstanding the multiplicity of pleasing
designs in colored shirts this fall, from
modest stripes and bars to elaborate pat
terms of Oriental suggestion, many dis
terminating dressers remain partial to the
white shirt for everyday wear. There Is
an unassuming refinement about this i'm
maculate garment that dwarfs the snowy
effects produced by color combinations,
and attracts those with a nice apprecia-
zion of fitness and simplicity in attire,
Moreover, it is easy to adapt the now
popular bright-hued scarfs to white shirts,
whereas discordant contrasts frequently
arise from the injudicious blending of gay
tints in neckwear and colored shirts.
The fancy of stylish dressers may veri-
tally revel in the latest patterns of pa
JamaS The utility of these now important
articles of dress is too well established to
need defense. They fulfill every require
ment of the old-fashioned night robe. and
in addition boast of admirable features pc
culiarly their own. Lovers of luxury may
sleep in sumptuous garments of silk, trim
med and embellshed in manner to glad
den the heart of a sybarite. Those with
slender purses have their choice of pa
jamas of flannel, hanneette sateen ma
dras, cheviot and oxford, substantially
made and slightly. and of numerous other
fabrics equally suitable.
Without doubt the most beautiful linen
handkerchiefs for men are produced in
France which may be termed the cradle
of artistic handkerchief making Their
perfection of detail, superiority of finish
and originality of design have hong baffled
imitation. Wide borders, figured bodi s
delicate texture and generous dimensions
characterize the fine coIored handkerchiafs
now on view in the shops of fashionable
haberdashers.
A fad in handkerchiefs for which the
introducer predicts great vogue. has Just

Cravat makers have surpassed them
selves this season. The hues Of their pro-
auctions are more brilliant, the fabrics
richer and the shapes more diversified than
at any time within memory. Designers
have given free rein to their artistic fancy
to the delight of critical judges of harmo-
ny in coloring. The fashion of selecting
squares of cravating and having them cut
TO order into scarfs has spread with amaz-
ing rapidity. In behalf of the innovation
it must be said that it insures individual
ity in patterns by preventing duplication
or, at least, by rendering ii unlikely.
Seamless vicuna dressing gowns have
won the approval of correct dressers. They
are woven abroad in the authentic plaids
of the leading Scottish clans.

From Lippincott's.


The question is often asked, particularly
by those who can recall the customs and
experiences of twenty-five years ago.
why do so many persons nowadays wear
glasses?'' The answer is easy: "The in
crease in the number of spectacles worn is
not to be regarded as an evidence of mod
ern degeneration of the eyes, but rather
that long-felt necessity has been met -
For it should be remembered that within
the past quarter of a century much has
been learned about the value of glasses.
and the range of their application and use
fulness has been enormously extended. OF
course. the eyes need more help now than
formerly, as the amount of work they are
required to do Is much greater than at
any previous period in the worlds his
tory. The sewing machine and many other
inventions of its class save the labor Of
the hands only TO add to that required of
the eyes.
New empoyments, new amusenents and
new fashions are continually being intro
duced to increase the exactions laid upon
these sensitive and delicate organs. The
steady decrease of illiteracy, together
with the general cheapness of literature
and a spread of a taste for 1t, the enor-
nous circulation of novel, magazine and
fetal illumination, all combine to overtax
the eyes, and TO weaken or possibly de-
stroy the sight unless the required aid and
protection be supplied through every
means at our disposal. Thus 1t happens
that the sometime luxury OF properly
adapted glasses has come TO be recognized
end understood by very many of the pres
ent generation as one of the real necessi-
ties of their lives.

THE FLORIDA CANAL.
Its Eject Upon the weather the
Chief Reason for Digging It,
From the LONDON Standard.

From the London Standard
Berlin, Nov 1.-The ingenious idea of
an American engineer, Mr.. sloper. to dig
a canal through the Peninsula of Florida
in order to divert the Gulf stream from the
west coast of Europe to the east coast of
America. and thus to transfer at least
portion of the comparatively warm tenn
perature, with all its consequences, from
the Old and New Continent, has attract
ed much attention here. 1t is not con-
sidered, however, to be such an easy task
as Mr.. Sloper seems to imagine Still, as
the country of Florida is fiat, there would
be no great difficulties to be surmounted
in this direction, and it is, therefore pos
sible that a company may soon be formed
in the United States of America for the
construction OF canal even if nothing
more is done. How far such a diversion
of the Gulf Stream would benefit the
northeast of the United States, to the de-
trment of the northwest of Europe, need
not be discussed at present, because there
are many reasons for believing that Mr..
Slopers hopes are too sanguine. It must
not be forgotten that the execution of such
a plan would entail an expenditure beside
which the cost OF the Suez or Panama ca
nal would be quite Insignificant.
OF course the canal would only attain
It's OBJECT IL the whole OF the Gulf Stream
could be easily diverted. But an idea of
its size, as compared with the Suez canal
may be gathered from the following fig
ures. The Suez canal is one hundred and
sixty kilometers long, a hundred meters
broad, and eight meters deep. II cost
four hundred million marks The Florida
Peninsula, at the point where 1t is to be
intersected, Is almost as broad as the
Suez canal is long, or perhaps, five or ten
kilometers less. The Gulf Stream is about
one hundred and ten kilometers broad, and
two hundred meters deep, and the new
canal would have to be equally broad and
deep. That Is to say, it would have to be
twenty-five times as deep and more
than thousand times as broad as the
Suez canal; and the cost of excavation.
quite apart from the extra expense of
working at such depth would amount
to ten thousand milliards of marks, or two
thousand five hundred times as much IS
the indemnity paid by France 10 Germany
Quite apart from the question whether Il
Is technically possible to dig such a broad
canal to depth of two hundred meters

covered her with tar and feathers, put
her into three feet of water and made
her march up and down the stream for
the amusement of the crowd.
The second division came with Hickman,
and the woman was placed on the bank,
while Hickman was treated the same as
the woman, with the addition of being
whipped and pounded. He was made to
march up and down in the water until the
third section came with Ed jackson. who
was treated in a similar manner. The trio
were then forced back into the water and
made to play 'possum" The prisoners
were then marched through severaI
streets, naked, and were whipped All
