CONTINUOUS ADVERTISING.
Why a Successful Merchant Keeps
Everlastingly at 1t.

One of Boston's big department
stores recently published the follow
ing in the midst Of its large display
ads. in the Sunday local papers
MANY customers have said to us:
Why do you advertise continuously f?
We always come to your shop when
we desire to buy goods We believe
that is true with thousands OF our pa
irons, particularly the large number
who have charge accounts, but we
wish TO increase this long list, and
our announcements Of new articles
and fabrics opening frequently are in
tended as a source of information
from time to time OF what is particu-
larly new and desirable as well as
what is exceedingly reasonable in
price.
MANY lots have to be disposed of at
a great loss on account of excessive
stock, injudicious buying or change of
fashion. At such times the prices
quoted are so very low that we want
the information of these opportunities
known far and near, both to our regu-
.ar customers and the great public.
80 il you read our advertisements
in the light of valuable information
about our store you can send messen-
gers or come yourself, confident such
may be relied upon, and if you are
made satisfied customer we have ac-
complished our purpose, for a salts
fled customer is the best advertise
ment known to us
In other words, this business con-
Germ keeps continuously before the
public because it has something to
say in a business news way every day
in the year.
The amount of capital invested in
these great shopping emporiums is
large. and it is an absolute necessity
that the goods purchased be turned
over as quickly and as often as posi-
BILE. 1t mas been demonstrated that
periodical advertising viii not do.
1t is all very we'll to talk about
regular customers who would visit
the store whether the concern adver-
tised or not, but how long, think you,
would they continue in the role Of
regular customers?
1t is safe to say ninety-nine out of
every hundred shoppers gain their in
formation about a merchants wares
from the newspapers. The enterPris-
ing and successful shopkeeper is per-
fectlv we'll aware of this fact, and he
would as soon think of trying to do
business on the "once in while
advertising plan as he would OF at
tempting to make a success by open
ing his shop whenever he happened
to feel in the mood to transact BUSH
ness.

CURE SICK HEADACHE,
instrument for stitchina Wounds.

A novel and most useful instrument has been invented by Dr. Paul Michel, well known French physician. With it wounds on body can be stitched eff fectively, quickly and without causing any pain to the patient. Heretofore wounds were stitched by hand, and this operation was not only somewhat dan gerous and slow but also decidedly pain full
 The new instrument consists of for ceps or pinchers and of a case or sheath. which contains a number of nickel hooks or bands somewhat similar to those which are frequently seen on the corners of cardboard boxes. A slight pressure suffices to free these hooks from the sheath, and within one minute between twenty and thirty of them can be placed on a wound in such manner that they will effectively close 1t. The reason why they cause no pain Is because their tiny rounded points only penetrate the epi- dermis, and not the lower layer of skin. Other advantages which they possess are that they can be easily disinfected, that 1t is no trouble to remove them from the skin after the wound Is healed and that they leave hardly any trace of a scar.
 pr. Michel has received congratulations from the most distinguished European physicians, and his instrument Is being rapidly introduced into leading hospitals.

 An visitors to New York remember, of course the little French restaurant es- abolished some years ago by French woman in University place and Elev- enth street, also Delmonicos on the cor ner of Twenty-sixth street and Fifth avenue. Since these places were estab- nshed the wave of residence has moved up town and the business and manufac- turing houses have followed in their wake Delmonico. following his custom CTS, has gone Northward and erected a grand edifice on Fifth avenue and Forty-fourth street, to continue for a century longer his century of success in catering to the rich and fashionable. The busy little French woman set good table d'hote at small figure. She gained patronage from the artists, stu dents and journalists who lived around and about her little cheerful dining room. The fame of the company nightly dining at the snowy white tables, the ex- cellence of her cooking and the good ser vice was soon noised abroad, and suc- cess came The place was enlarged. Strangers f1ocked in. The old company went away, but still the business grew, and the Hotel Martin became an institu- ton. Following the order of things, the Martin was compelled to move, and now 1t has secured the premises vacated by Delmonico. Such Is growth in New York City.
 Edward Harrigan, better known as Ned Harrigan. has gotten together se- lections from his types Of New Workers, and proposes to publish them in book shape. Harrigan's types are familiar to the theater-goer and well deserve to be preserved in permanent form. They be- long to New York-to 1t during a period which Is scarce known to the resident New Yorker of this generation, much less to the stranger outside of It's gates. They belong to the city where every kind of foreigner form Europe was dumped at Castle Garden to sink or swim as best he could. in the hurrying whirlpools of the metropolis. With the combined genius of CruIckshank and Dickens Harrigan not only portrayed the individual, but showed their customs and habits after being transplanted to the Western world, and their life In this city had It's effect on the city itself. Such a work as MT. Harrigan has pre- pared is a memorable and valuable addi- ton to the local literature of the city. I believe 1t will be more than well re- ceived.

GRANT DINNER" SOUVENIRS.
Fac Smiles of Three Letters to His
 Wife Published for First Time.

The souvenirs of the eleventh annual dinner given by the Grant Birthday Asso- citation in New York on Saturday evening were a handsome pamphlet containing besides a steel engraving of the soldier fac-similes of three letters written by him to his wife, never before published.
 It was characteristic of the man that he should say, at the very outset of his career:
 "These terrible battles are very good things to read about for persons who lose no friends, but am decidedly in favor of having as little of 1t SIS possible. The way to avoid it is to push forward as rapidly as possible"
 In the same letter he closed with a strong entreaty to write frequently and tell me all about the children"
 When the machinations of secret enc mics threatened his position and bade fair to rob him of hard earned laurels, he penned these lines to his wife
 'I want to remain in the field and be actively employed. But shall never ask a favor or change.
 'Whatever is ordered I will do, inde- pendently, and as well as I know how
 If the command inferior to my rank is given me, 1t shall make no difference in my zeal"
 Again he wrote when rumor-mongers were busy traducing him:
 All the islanders you have seen against me originated away from where I was. ]"
 When later he was ordered to join his men again, the joy of the soldiers thereat being historical, he briefly referred to their demonstration by saying: They showed. I believe, heartfelt joy"

cred, formerly denizens of our Eng
fish woodlands. The badger, it
should be remembered, is an exceed
ingly retiring animal. He lives in a
kind of underground fortress. from
which it is difficult to dislodge him,
and which he never leaves till it is
dusk, when he sets out on his nightly
prowl. He is chased by enthusiastic
sportsman, as the fox used to be in
former days, on his return home.
When his trail is once found by a
little pack of good terriers a capital
run may be had, and if a sack is
placed at the mouth of his castle he
is generally taken alive. Digging him
out or forcing him to bolt with dogs is
much more arduous task, as he
fights furiously and is rarely con-
quered till he has left his mark upon
some of his assailants. But what be-
comes of the badgers when they are
taken? What was done with the 16
animals whose fate is recorded by Mr..
Lush? They were surely not all de-
stroyed; and what is the good of TAX
ing them only to keep them in cages
or to turn them loose again? If they
were caught and killed as vermin we
should protest emphatically against
such wholesale slaughter of one of the
few really wild species still existing
in these islands. Possibly they kill
a fox cub now and then and make
away with good many rabbits, but
they do not do enough damage to be
seriously injurious to sport or TO justi-
fly war of determination. 1t is also
the case that the badger is as fond of
honey as ursa major. and as no stings
can penetrate his hide he can feast
on the nests of wild bees, wasps and
hornets, who's grubs he thinks de-
licious, with perfect impunity Oeca-
sionally this sweet tooth of his will
lure him into gardens, where he does
not hesitate to upset the bee hives
and swallow the contents. But is the
poor badger to be driven out of the
country for such peccadilloes as these
and our woods deprived of one of their
most ancient and interesting inhabit-
ants? With all respect to the game
keepers. we hope not.-London STAN

WHAT THE NAILS TELL.
Character Shown at Finger Tips, Ac-
cording to Those Who Know.

cording to Those Who Know.
Long nails never indicate such
great physical strength as short, broad
ones. Very long finger-nailed persons
are apt to have delicate chests and
lungs.
Long nails, very wide at the top and
blush in appearance, denote bad cir
culation. Long-nailed men and women
are less critical and more impression
able than those with short nails.
Long nails indicate ideality and an
artistic temperament.
Long-nailed people are apt to be
very visionary and hate to face dis
agreeable facts.
Short-nailed men never give up an
argument.
A keen sense of humor accompanies
short nails,
Short-nailed persons make good
critics; they are sharper and more
logical than long-nailed people, and
usually more positive in assertion.
Short nails, thin and fiat at the base,
indicate weak action of the heart
Short nails, very fiat and sunken as
1t were into the flesh at the base, are a
sign of diseased nerves.
Short nails, very fiat and inclined to
curve out or lift up at the edges, are
the forerunners of paralysis.
Don't use nail bleachers too gener-
ously, and ont fail to be stingy of
rouge and powder. Let your nails be
beautiful with no visible signs of the
manicuring that keeps them pink and
! lovely --Toledo Bee.

signalized by the slaughter of a huge
crowd of Anglo-Saxons outside CT
the church through a mistaken idea
that they had risen in revolt.
Exactly two years later there was
an uprising of the malcontents in the
northern counties who hoped to
throw off the Norman yoke. Will
lam marched in person against the
rebels and directed a universal
slaughter. His men surprised several
garrisons and put them to the sword.
Neither age nor sex was spared, and
every house in the disaffected regions
was RACED to the ground. 1t is said
that over 100000 men, women and
children persisted on December %,
1868.
1t was on Christmas day in the
year ITO that Thomas a'Becket, the
greatest English cleric of his day,
assembled the cathedral pulpit at Can

called his own funeral sermon. The
words he made use of so angered
Henry II that he let fall those fatal
words, IF anybody loved me, he

Four knights took him at his word,
and on December 30 they slew the
prelate before the altar of St.

Canterbury cathedral.
On December %, 1884, John Wyclif

Christmas sermon.
One of the saddest Christmases

AN EccENTIc COUNTESS.
Wonderful Collection of Articles
Comes to Light After Her Death.

Some of the eccentricities of the
late Comtesse de .Castiglione have
come out. At the time of her death
she had no fewer than five fats in
different parts of Paris, four of which
were chiefly used for storing rare fur
niture and other objects. She lived
in the fifth, the street bearing her
name. 1t contained many roughly
made deal boxes and basket trunks
packed with rich laces, furs, fans,
scent bottles and jeweled knick-
knacks.
There were fifty fans of the great
est beauty. A summary history of
each, and on what occasions it was
used, was written on a docket. A
great quantity of plate was found in a
box in another of the flats, with tea
service in massive carved silver of
great value. Her collection of Vene-
tian rose and other italian guipures
is said to be of priceless worth. The
parasols and canes are not less re-
markable. Canes came into fashion
for ladies just before she retired from
the world to bury herself alive as a
recluse in the very heart Of Paris.
These aticles are in themselves al
most a fortune. The cambria body
linen is of unbelievable fneness.
There are also trunks filled with SOU
