Very little has thus far been accom-
plished by the Legislature, though the
session has started on the "home stretch"
Perhaps this will prove a blessing in
the end. So much wild cat" legislative
has been proposed by representatives
who wish to satisfy their constituents
that they are distinguishing themselves,
and the chances were good for enact
ment into laws. But in the little time
now remaining comparatively small
harm can be done.-Mandeville Wave.

The AID. writer of st. Louis says man

The AID. writer of st. Louis says many
small merchants in the cities are apt to
think that while the department stores
should advertise, advertizing ia a pro-
ftless expenditure for the small bust
ness that finds its custom only in the
immediate neighborhood Of the store.
The men fail to take into consideration
the fact that IN many instances the de-
partment store began life as a neigh
bOrhood store and increased its bust
ness by iudicious advertising. Adver-
Using is just as profitable for the small
business as for the large one.

Waterbury Democrat., 1902-09-10

Speaking of the early discovery of gold, writer named Leyh in one of the September magazines says that it is interesting to note that as long ago as 1470, the Portuguese, the original 1.scoverers of the land, conferred upon one of their earliest settlements the name La Nina (Elmina), in. honor of the quantity of gold obtained there from. We know, also, on reliable au- thority, that Captain Thomas Windham on a single occasion in 1851 conveyed to England 15 pounds of gold dust, and that a second English expedition, fitted out few years later under Captain John Lok, brought from the now famed golden land precious metal weighing 400 pounds and 250 elephant tusks. In more recent years, private estimates and official returns serve only to in crease the surprise that gold has not been forthcoming in larger quantities. The Royal African Go sent mission to Kumasi, an interesting account of
Waterbury Democrat., 1902-09-10

which appears in a book published in 1879 by T. Edward Bowditch, one of the delegation. If Kumasi really was what Bowditch described it, it's wealth must have been astonishing, for we are told that, at the reception of the mis- sion, the sun was reflected, with a glare scarcely more supportable than the heat, from the massive gold orna. ments which glistened in every dlrec- tion.' The king sat on a throne, and was resplendent with breast-plate, anklets and sword hilt, all of solid gold; his guards wore belts and his band played instruments of the same precious metal; even the most lowly of his attendants were decorated with layers of 4-ne gold chains, while every native in the town seems to have been adorned with what would now be cost ly jewelry. Echoes of the same tale have come to us in later years; for in stance, Captain Boisragon, after visit ing the Ashanti capital in 1892, wrote that the king alone was a sight to see, being mass of gold from kind of ire mans helmet he had on to the tips of his sandals, which alone must have been worth some hundreds of poundS'"
