The Presidents secretary has notified the
authorities in Springfield, ILL.,, where the
President is to be the guest of the State
Board of Agriculture in October, that there
will be no reception and public ~handshaking
at the fair grounds. This is a good rule TO
follow everywhere, especially where every
body and anybody would have a right to be
in the line. The President started well IN
this particular. His first appearance at any
public reception after he took office was at
the time of the Yale bicentennial. This re-
ception was held in the large new dining
hall of the university. 1t was for graduates
and guests of the university. Presumably
there were no dangerous Anarchists in that
crowd. But the President did not shake
hands with those who filed before him, nor
did President Hacley, who stood with him.
They simply bowed in response to compli-
mentary greetings. But we believe the
President has departed from this custom on
other occasions hardly less public. There
was no complaint made of the proceeding
at New Haven, although there were some
who invOluntarily held out their hand as
they had been accustomed TO do on such &C
casions. Why should 1t not be sufficient Tor
the President 10 be seen and heard without
being handled?

The boycott of beef has had a curious
effect upon the advertising business.
Cereal makers had been using magazines
TO reach consumers. IN this emergency OPP
portunity they could not wait a month or
more for the slow methods of magazine
preparation and distribution: they rushed
into the newspapers, and through those
machines, at much lower rates, they APP
pealed TO the housewives in those localities
where they had placed their goods on sale.
This plan would have been impossible
through magazines. They also avoided a
waste Of publicity in those States where
they had been unable TO introduce their
goods.
They covered territory after territory
thoroughly and promptly through the
newspapers and a judiciousI selection in
each locality enabled them TO prevent that
unnecessary duplication which attends
magazine advertising.
They secured effective display in good
position and reaped a golden harvest in
immediate returns.
Changes in style of type and manner OF
presentation were made within twenty-four
hours; another feat which would have been
impossible through magazine advertising.
They struck while the iron was hot.
They obtained results.

steamship recently the attention of a group
OF voyagers, comprising several prominent
Americans and two English baronets. was
directed to the fact that no less than a
dozen passengers were deeply engrossed i'm

the merits OF that fascinating game were
discussed and differing answers made 10
the question as to whether it would retain

ing point, however was reached when Sir

That is not a game characteristic of the

SOFT COAL AND SMOKE.
sheffield, England, Furnishes an Ex-
ample for Others to Follow.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The chief smoke inspector of Sheffield,
England, has been interviewed regarding
the best method of stocking furnaces to re-
strict the amount of smoke produced.
Sheffield lies in a valley and uses soft
coal entirely. Smoke is one of the principal
troubles of the municipality, and the chief
smoke inspector is ar expert. If anybody
should be we'll informed on the subject it
is he.
Inspector Nicholson gives it as his ex-
pert opinion that the only successful and
scientific method of stocking consists in
firing lightly and often. Then the coal is
all consumed in the furnace and not sent
up the chimney in the form of smoke, vast
ing fuel and annoying folks outside as well.
1t is best to stoke on the alternate side
firing principle. The stoker loads up the
right hand side of the furnace and the gases
given off curl around TO the redhot left and
are consumed. Then the other side is dealt
with on the same principle with a similar
result.
The only person who objects to this is
the stoker. who has TO work twice as hard
as he would be going straight ahead On an
unscientiic basis.
In spite of the stoker's objections, though,
il is the expert opinion of the Sheffield in
spector that furnaces equipped with mod
ern improvements and fired on this princi-
pie will give forth little or no smoke even
when loaded with soft coal.

Austria Not Well known.

Austria is for most Americans terra i'll

musicians, Pilsener beer and "wienerwurst"
constitute the sum of things of Austrian
origin wherewith our people in general are
more or less familiar. 1t is to be hoped that
the elevation of our legation at Vienna to
the rank of an embassy will mark the be-
ginning of a better mutual acquaintance be

parison the malt liquor industry is shown
TO have gone far ahead of the other. Capt.
tai has increased from A.072.3S0 in 1880 TO
S415, 2S4, 46S in 1900 and value of product has
increased from s.. 72S. 56S TO S237, 269. 713. The
number OF w-age-earners employed is about
twenty times as large as fifty years ago.
II is known from the internal revenue
statistics that the per capita consumption
of beer has increased. while
that of distilled spirits has declined to some
extent. If the figures could be extended
back TO 1850. before the internal revenue
tax was imposed. a still greater present de
