A WISE MAN.

John Wanamaker, the merchant
prince, who chiefly through judi
cious advertising has made millions,
makes the following statement: ga
newspaper whose columns overflow
with advertisements of business men
has more influence in attracting at
tention and building up town
than any other agency that can be
employed. People 60 where there is
business. Capital and labor go
where there is an enterprising COM
munity. No power on earth is so
strong to build up town as pa
per we'll patronized, and its power
should be appreciated. The man
who overlooks his town paper in
jures himself by injuring his town
and townsmen.

TWOCAREERS.

What has she done that men should stay
The jostling hurry of their way
To seek with wonder-eager eyes
The darkened mansion where she hes?
What has she done, that far and wide,
Has flashed the word that she has died
That folk in distant lands have said
To one another: "She is dead?''
Why should the lips of strangers raise
To her monument of praise?
All, it was hers to conquer fame,
She made name
And she who lies so whitley STILL
Untouched of joy, unyexed of i'll,
Has she done aught? Why, surely, no;
The records of her living show
No laurels won, no glory gained,
No effort crowned, no height attained;
In life she championed no cause;
Why should the passing people pause?
One little households narrow scope
Held all her heart and all her hope.
Too lowly she for fame's high dome;
She made home.
