NEWSPAPER COMMERCIALIsM.

The Journal prints in another column
the address recently delivered before the
Newspaper Publishers Association by Mr..
Melville e. Stone, general manager of the
Associated Press. In this speech MI. Stone,
whose voice is one of authority, since
abundant experience has made him a mas
ter of newspaper science, describes briefly
what a paper should be and what it should
not be. He is speaking. be it remembered
from a business standpoint to men inter-
ested chiefly in the business aspects of their
papers, and he tells them that they gain
nothing even from advertisements by sem
sationalism and crazy-quilt methods of
handling news, or the rubbish that some
publishers label as news. "Wild-eyed
Typography does not make news be says,
land the people are not fooled very long
with the idea that it does" AS the news
boy he quotes says in speaking of a sem
sational. untrustworthy paper. THE folks
is on to it. It's a con, paper. You sees a
big, black head and you thinks there's
something, but you buys it and they amt
nothing. Then you don't buy it any
more" 1t is true enough that people can
not long be fooled by papers of this sort.
They find that they are not TO be relied on
in a news way, and the advertiser real
ICES that in a sense he must share the
doubtful reputation OF the paper if he goes
into it's columns. And he realizes, too, if
he is wise, that the people who do read
such papers are largely of the class which
does the least TO support legitimate bust
ness-the irresponsible, light-minded, I'M
thinking element. The solid members of the
community, those who have a little money
10 spend and spend it carefully, have lit
tie use for the papers that are edited
with a pitchfork'' and that show no moral
sense in their presentation of news-pub-
fishing eagerly and preposterous tale and
inquiring into it's truthfulness later.
There is no doubt whatever that the pub
lie soon gets on TO the Enthusiastically
newspaper and that it suffers accordingly.
The fact that it pays in a commercial
as we'll as a moral sense TO publish a clean,
honest, truthful paper is one that the sem
sational press is slow to learn, for sem
sationalism has become a disease. but they
are sure to learn it in time in the most
unpleasantly effective way, namely,
through their cash books. They will be
wise to heed Mr.. Stones words in time.

The act OF the Hibernian Society in omit
ting its contemplated parade to-day on ac-
count of General Harrison's funeral is es-
pecially gracious and considerable. This
parade is commonly one of the great
features of the celebration of St. Patrick's
day and involves much advance prepara-
ton. The society bad already gone to a
good deal of expense in arranging for to-
days event, and TO give 1t up entails a
sacrifice in more senses than one. Its
courtesy in the matter is appreciated by
General Harrison's family and friends. and
the hope is expressed that the other ex-
ercises planned by the society for the day
will be a success in every particular.

The people of Indianapolis will be de-
lighted to learn that the proprietors Of

cloud of sooty blackness. The announce
ment that such a smoke consumer has been
found is cause for congratulation.

The presence of President Mckinley at
the funeral of ex-President Harrison is not
only appropriate in an official sense. but is
characteristic Of the man. Mr.. Mckinley
knew General Harrison personally as well
as politically. as a man as well as a trusted
Republican leader and President. They
possessed some personal characteristics in
common. and perhaps were more strongly
drawn together than the public knew. y
man who is governed by conscientious con-
victions always admires another who recog-

true of these Two. The President of the
United States could give no stronger proof
OF his high estimation OF the character Of
the deceased Indiana statesman than by
leaving his post of duty and travelling 4
long distance to attend his funeral.

A HAPPY BOY.

Oldcnburg, ILL.,, Sept. 2nd:-The
doctors all failed in the case of little
thirteen year old Willie Keil, who
suffered with acute Rheumatism.
For over three months, the poor
little fellow suffered excruciating
torture. His father, who had done
everything he could think of, saw
@ new rheumatism Remedy adver-
tised-Dodd's Kidney Pills. He
bought some, and soon his little son
showed signs of improvement. Three
boxes cured him completely, and he
has not a symptom Of rheumatism
left.
This miraculous cure of case
which had been given up by the
physicians, has electrified Madison
County, and Dodd's Kidney Pills are
much talked of medicine.

Miss Bessie kellogg, President of the

from First street, South, Valley City,

called and he generally advises an OPP
Grafton. Perhaps he will subject the
patient to long series of experiments
with nervines and tones. The reason
he does not often make a cure is be-
cause he does not recognize the trou-
BILE.
In a large majority of the cases ca
tarrh of the female organs is the
cause. Peruna relieves these cases
promptly because it cures the catarrh.
Peruna is not palliative or sedative
or q ncrvine or stimulant. It is a
specific for catarrh and cures catarrh
wherever it may Turk in the system.
This girl was lucky enough to find
Peruna at last. As she says, the doc
tors did not seem to understand what
the trouble was and the medicine he
prescribed from time TO time did not
help her. Peruna hit the mark at
once and she is now recommending
this wonderful remedy to all the other
girls in the United States.
Thousands of the girls who look at
her beautiful face and read her sin
cere testimonial, will be led to try
Peruna in their times of trouble and
critical periods. Peruna will not fail
them. Every one of them will be glad
and 1T is to De hOpeo that lhelr en-
thusiasm will lead them to do as this
girl did-proclaim the fact to the
world so that others may read it and
do likewise.
