What Are Stronger Than Facts?

Aulancer. N. g., Oct. Ii, 1900.
To Mrs. Joe Person:
Ny little boy was sorely troubled
with impurities of the blood, and
the result was boils and sores on his
body to such an extent that he could
not rest while lying on his back or
side, but for three weeks he had to
lie with his face down, and turn his
head from side to side to rest it
After consulting a prominent physi-
clan he told me TO try your Remedy,
khich | did. After using it q short
time he was completely cured, and
his general health restored.
At the same time that my little
boy was afflicted with these sores
and boils, his bowels were in q very
bad condition. and this medicine eff
fected a complete cure of them.
I recommend said medicine as q
Great Remedy. and would not be
without it in my home

MODERN ADVERTISING.
b eg Innings OF This Method of Selling
In the East

- oS VI -hchhON ~ DN1
In the East
Fifty years ago 1t was considered be-
meath the dignity of many SUBSTANTIAL
concerns to advertise, beyond the in
sertion in the newspapers of an occa-
sional business card. Some of the ex-
periences of that time show how re-
Gently advertising, as we know 1t. has
deS eloped. A retail hardware house
in an Eastern city once found itself
toossesse,'' of ten times the number OF
articles of a certain kind that 1t had
intended To b,v. AS they had been
ordered especially for new hotel and
were of a peculiar de, ign, there seemed
to be no way of dispoRA : Vi 1neAn Ga. Ca
eept at merely nominal ~

fair price, provided he be permitted 70
advertise. The suggestion encOnn'
tered much opposition, but finally
small sum was set apart to carry 1t
out The advertisement was drafted
IN an attractive way and the people
soon began to buy the new article.
Finally the house was obliged to send
70 the manufacturers for more. When
the next seasons trade opened, tho
member OF the firm who had most op-
posed the experiment whispered to the
young man that he had better write
out a few notices "and put them In
the papers" From such beginnings
the advertising practice has come.
Thousands of dollars are now spent
not only in advertising itself, but In
'deVising clever catch-words, ingenious
phrases and illustrations which VIII
stick in the memory of the reader, as
well as new general methods. NO
doubt money may be wasted in ineirec-
tive advertising, or in advertising
worthless goods. But on the other
hand, fortunes are made where there is
In an article a happy union between
publicity and merit

DoHERTY BROTHERS WIN.
Ward and Davis Outplayed in Tennis
Doubles.

New York, Aug 9.--The Doherty
brothers defeated Holcomb Ward and
Dwight r. Davis yesterday in the
doubles match on the courts of the
Crescent Athletic club at Bay Ridge.
The American team by virtue of this
defeat lose their holding of the inter-
national championship which they
won two years ago at Longwood,
Mass, by defeating the Britons in the
first series for the international chal-
lenge trophy.
1t was not generally expected that
the Americans would win this matcn
and the prediction was fully realized
In four sets. The first went to Ward
and Davis at 4-6, but the second,
third and fourth were scored by the
Dohertys at 10-S, 6-3, Cd.
Captain w. H. Collins manager of
the English team, said that in his es-
timation the best man had won
throughout the series and while he was
sorry they had failed to lift the cha1-
lenge cup this year. the Britishers
We're by no means discouraged and
would surely make another trial.
Whether it would be next year 1t was
Impossible for him to say.

American Boat Wins Second Race for
SeawanhaLa Gun.


Montreal, Aug 9.-The Tecumseh, the
American challenger, won the second
of the series OF races for the Seawan-
haka cup, which was sailed yesterday
over the Lake st Louis course, defeat
ing the Canadian defender Trident,
over a triangular course, by 1 minute
% seconds. The breeze was at no
time more than three-quarter whole
sail breeze, falling toward the end of
the day, and there was little sea. The
Tecumseh proved herself very fast
boat, especially in reaching, but her
pointing left something to be desired
The race was three times around a
triangle. The total distance was IL
miles. The Tecumseh got away first,
securing the windward position and
retaining it. At the end of the first
round she was eight seconds behind,
but by good handling she established
the weather position again. Trident,
however, sailed past her and got both
the wind and the lead almost immedi-
ately. The Tecumseh then got shift
of wind, and at the end of the second
beat was only two seconds behind
This she turned into lead of ten sec
onds when the second round was over.
Several short tacks followed. The
American boat drew ahead and into
the wind, getting around the mark for
the reach So seconds to the good On
the run home to the finish the Tecum-
sch drew away and Won fairly.

THE LITTLE BRIGAND."

Two or three men inspected the hut
cautiously and finding it deserted
forced the door open. 1t was built on
an elevation projecting between two
lofty mountains Streamlets OF water
oozed out from the cracks OF the r0cKs-
The ground was covered with heavy
frost; is was very cold. Soon blazing
fire from the hut reflected itself on the
opposite mountain-side. Now we We're
motioned to enter. NV rect We're NUMB
with cold, but I was suffering SO much
with the pain of fatigue that did not
sit near the fire to get warm. J. looked
for a place to lie down. In a corner
near the fire some straw was spread.
al log was given me for pillow. A
lsape was then spread over the straw.
ItIlaE down half dead with exhaustion
b and pain. Miss stone sat near the nre
atid talked with DDrigands, who We're
drying their foot wrappings, and then
she Law down beside me- They stretch
ed themselves every which way on the
part Of the floor not occupied by us.
Only one stood guard. The fire burned
brightly, the smoke fioated like cloud
around the room, and found it's way out
through the cracks. for there was no
chimney. The men silent and snored
heavily. I turned and twisted, but no
Dosition was comfortable. sat up in
bed and looked around. -Four stone
walls and matched roof shining with
SCOT, inclosed the little room. On eth
er side stood two tremendous wine
casks. One smelled of fresh wine. A
small wooden tub and gourd stood at
hand. These were all the belongings
of our hut. The smoke blinded my
eyes and the tears began to run down
nv cheeks, / wished there was a
chimney. HOW the brigands did snore!
| i looked at Miss Stone, living close by
my, side. She was sound asleep. Her
hands were black with dust and smoke.
| I both pitied and envied her. "She is
tired, but she can sleep at least" A
pair Of black eyes attracted my atten-
ton. The guard was closely watching
me from his dark corner.
Two or three hours later the chief
| himself appeared. He was tall, heav-
| ily- built and dark. His eyes were
fierce at other times, but now they were
downcast. He said nothing; he stood
| in front Of the fire and seemed deep
| in thought Every time the baby cried
or grunted he was startled; he was not
used to that sort Of thing. Everybody
| in the room was silent except the baby.
| TO break the oppressive silence, Miss
Stone picked up the infant and handed
| it to the chief. At first he appeared
confused and embarrassed, but as he
watched the helpless little morsel in
his strong arms smile passed over
his face. I was anxious; / watched
| his expression, read his thoughts, l
waited for results. And sure enough,
his smiles lasted longer: he bent his
head closer to the baby's face. He
was no more brigand to me, but a
brother, q father. a protector to my
baby. He now made I'D his mind to
