with an uncertain light, while his stat

comrades dubbed him the 'jolly fellow
but those who knew better criticised him
differently, and thought him capable of
EMPLOYING any means to accomplish a

aside law and order if they INSTRUCTED
his path.
He had met Beatrice during her yaca-
lions, and he resolved to marry her In
case her fortune correspondent with his
expectations. After becoming informed
on this point and also as regarded her
family affairs, he introduced himself to
Herbert Marsden, the guardian of the
lady, explained his intentions, his posi-
ton, and by mutual understanding a
compact was made.
Count Bozell tried to gain Beatrice's
love by conceted courtesy, but she met
his advances with polite complaisance
and avoided his company whenever it
was practicable This Indifference pro-
yoked the count. Although he did not
really love the girl, he was chagrined
at finding her SO distant, and the less she
favored him the more he redoubled his
efforts. Her singular aristocratic beauty,
the elegance Of her appearance, and the
gracefulness Of her manners had capt.
waited him until, at last-having her
guardians consent-he determined she
should become his wife, either by fair
means or foul.

No State Tax To he Levied.

For the first time in the history Of the
State since 1854 no tax for the support
or maintenance Of the State government,
or any of the State institutions, will be
levied this year. The condition Of the
State treasury is such that ali charges
against it for the purposes Of admlnlstra-
ton Of the government are amply provld-
ed for by the money on hand. There
was in the general fund Oct. l, Sl,olo,-

ernor Secretary Of State and State
Treasurer, by authority Of law, have
been enabled to wipe out the State tax.

that for the benefit Of the common
schools, which is seven-tenths of mill,
after deducting 100000 of the license
moneys received by the State from the
railroads. This tax amounts to $1,O27,-

hundreds of claims against the com

WHY ADVERTISE

The attention of the American
public is more sought after with
matter than that of any
other people on the face of God S
green footstool, and year after year
new ways and means of getting
the eye are found, and the cate
cory includes everything from a
picture, a puzzle-quaint rhyme,
humorous sketch or song down to
a man with sign on his back.
Why advertize7 Why spend
good hard money in this way1
The answer has been given long
ago in the wonderful sales of the
articles advertised into first place
in the public mind; hence It is
proved fully that advertising is
simply a speculative business out
lay on which the returns are in
measure with the quality, price and
usefulness Of the articles offered.
There are few merchants who
still assert that advertising does
not pay. The man who knows how
to advertise makes it pay. Adver-
Using is news, simply news of a
stores goods, prices, service and
enterprise.
Advertising to be effective is need
ed daily. The month of January
or June or any other month should
not be neglected. The advertis-
ing should fit the season, and if it
be a slow season the bargains
should be thick and fast.-East
Liverpool Co., Tribune.
When advertise has beendemon-
strated as chow to ADVERTISE" the
next vital question is the medium.
What the circulation, where and
with whom. The largest circula-
ton in a locality where the citizens
can visit your business is
the medium with which to place
advertising. The ADVOCATE holds
this relation with the business in

REPUBLICAN SCARE CROW.

Fridays Lexington Leader has
a special from Mt. Sterling which
announces a statement made by
Governor and the Chairman Of the
State Executive Committee, A.
w. Young. The prophecy has
in it a purpose; to create dissatis-
faction among Democrats. Those
who have read the card Of Gov
ernor Beckham, announcing his
candidacy for reelection would
concede his earnestness.
He told the people he wanted
them to decide their preference
between candidates for Governor
and to be a party to the forming
of a slate crowding others from
the race would show insincerity
in the man, 50 apparent that any
one could not fail to understand.
Democrats are men, and would OF
course have preferment to their
choice, but they are not so anxious
that they would create party fac
tions,
To know Governor Beckham
and Chairman Young is sufficient
ground for denying the prophetic
charge the Leader correspondent
would apply t. them. Democrats
should accord fairness to all alike.
They will stand nothing less. We
want our candidates to win butnot
at the expense Of the party. Re
publicans are anxious for a Dem
cratic family quarrel only for self
ish purposes.
They may be sure Democrats
will profit by past experience and
will therefore be governed by the
will Of the majority, that the pri-
mary will be without states, every
man on equal footing, the longest
pole knocking the persimmon.
