that mere advertising in itself could not do everything, and that while the pub lie might several times be driven into buyfng merely because they were told that they ought to buy. experience would ultimately prove the truth of Lincolns famous dictum that you can not fool all the public all the time. So the publishers went to work with great promptitude to kill the goose that had laid the golden egg. Stupid books, crude books, books that were utterly flat, and without single interesting or attractive feature, were puffed and praised with the most extravagant forms of eulogy in announcements whose adjectives might have been bor- rowed from Q circus poster. All sorts of collateral devices were employed to thrust new authors into general notice. The result to-day is that the public cares little or nothing about this kind of comrnendation, and they are falling back upon the good old plan of listen- ing to the counsel of disinterested crit ics and to the advice of their own judi cious friends. Hence, as We said above, there is at the present time no single book that is selling by the hundred thousand but instead, a great many ore books than unusual are having good sale and are getting serious atten- tier Take any of the best book lists" published in our reading literary mag azi,. .as and you will notice that the re- ports from each locality differ percepti- bly, from those of every other locality faclt which proves that readers of books are beginning to do their own se- lection and to think and judge little for themselves.
 That this result is exceedingly desir- able from an aesthetic and literary point of view is a statement that needs no demonstration. That it must be al- most equally desirable from the pub fishers point of view ought likewise to be obvious.-NeW York Commercial Ad- | vert!ser.

The Squire Got a Dose of His Own
 Disagreeabie Medicine.
 Men, as a rule, are more indifferent and communicative concerning the in- roads of age than women are, but the most amiable woman can generally find a pertinent remark to make when approached impersinently on this sa- cred theme. "Old Squire Jones doesn't speak to me now," said gentle faced. silver haired lady. and I don't blame him. He has excellent reasons for not wanting any conversation with me. Several months ago 1 was sitting in our carriage near the city library. wait ing for Ellen, when I saw the old squire drive up near me. He always has something unpleasant to say about how old we are all getting and what wrecks We all are, so I pretended not to see him. He came nearer however, and accosted me.
 Isn't that you, Mrs. Brown? How dyOu do, Mrs. Brown
 II turned around and greeted him, How do you do. Squire Jones?'
 My goodness. Mrs Brown the bluff old fellow went on, how you have broke! I never would have known you
 Why, Squire Jones' said I. I was just going to say the same thing to ! you. never did see man age as fast as you have. What on earth has made you fall so rapidly? I never would have known you
 ''The poor old squire shrank down s., l,s TTH looked half his usual size and ten years older and drove off without say ing anything further. It was wicked really, to deal the poor man such a blow, but if elderly gentlemen want to receive compliments" the silver haired lady laughingly concluded, they must 1 go about distributing them.

BALL GAMES
THE SPRINGFIELD TEAM VENT

 -ResuIts of Other Games.
 The Springfield state league baseball team was taken into camp by the Blues on the Savin Rock grounds yesterday afternoon and the New Haven team materially strengthened it's hold on first place in the state league championship race. The game yesterday was entire ly New Haven's until the seventh in- ming. Up to this time Tuckey had struck out two men, given but one man a pass to first and had allowed but two hits. At the bat he had struck the ball for two bases and single. In the sev- enth he enjoyed a brief ascension, evil dently taking it into his mind to fill the much postponed bill of the professional balloonist at the Rock But Tuckey came down successfully and after the visitors had scored four runs they were unable to do more. One more run was, however, added to their credit ;n the eighth, and this ended the scoring by the visitors.
 The New Haven team began their work in the first inning, scoring one run. In the second, three more tallies were added to the credit of the Blues, a single by O'Brien, base on an error for Cam avan, a double by Fitzmaurice, and these plays followed by 8 neat two bag ger by Tuckey, bringing in the three runs. Three more runs were added in
 the sixth and Captain Canavan's men were satisfied to finish their scoring by | scoring another run in the seventh, placing their total at 8, while the vis- | itors had made but 5.
 Two double plays by the New Haven | team and J. Connors dissatisfaction with the work of Umpire Ashe in call l ing balls and strikes, were among the
 features of an interesting contest The

CROWNS BY WHOLESALE.

They did many things better in the old world than in the new. Coronation processions was one of them. It is told of one of the ancient kings of Egypt that his coronation procession occupied a whole day in passing through the city of Alexandria, and that thirty-two hundred crowns of gold were carried by the servants. One crown was three feet in height and twenty-four feet in circumference. There were also car ried in the processions sixty-four suits of golden almor two boots of gold four and a half feet in length, twelve golden basins, ten large vases of perfumes for the baths, twelve ewers, fifty dishes and large number of tables-all of gold. Twenty-three of the thirty-two hundred crowns were valued at G334,- 400, and it is not surprising that the procession was guarded by ninety thousand soldiers.-St James Gazette.

Some of the business men are plan
ming to petition the Denver and Rio
Grande railroad to run coach down
to Portland each morning and back at
hight. This could be done by the
switch crew with the switch engine
and would not require the employ
ment of additional men. 1t is known
that many employees at Portland
would be glad to avail themselves OF
such an accommodation, preferring
to live in Florence. AS far as the
single men are concerned, they per-
haps would prefer to remain in Port
land, but men with families would
unquestionably prefer residence in
this city. 1t il matter worth TAX
ing up AS the railroad people could
undoubtedly be made TO see the matter
in the right light.

"MATTER WITH KANSAS" NOW

Something is the matter with Kan

has arisen in that forcing bed of pol

of Kansan taste, Chancellor Strong of
