How a University AdvertIses.

It appears that all the yarns about bizarre sayings and doings of members of the faculty of the University of Chi cago that have, from time to time. found lodgment in the news columns of the American press and inspired car loads of editorial comment have been merely the achievements of an alert press agent working under the direction of President Harper. The statement is made di- rectly and without qualification in the October number of Leslie's Monthly Magazine, which is regarded as a responsible publication. This the ory of the origin of these Chicago Uni- versity stories answers as no other theory can, certain questions that they must have suggested to every thought fuI reader. such as: How can any man with brains enough to obtain any sort Of professorship in any sort of col lege be capable of utering the idocies attributed to these professors of the University of Chicago?" How is 1t that these Chicago professors have been able to retain their professorships after uttering such idocies?" Only by the theory that the published stories were press agents yarns" are these questions reasonably answerable. The objections to the theory are only appar- cntly formidable.
 Discussing the decline of interest in the sayings of the Chicago professors. fhe Rochester Democrat and Chronicle points out that they have oVerdone the business. Newspapers have no objec- ton to the legitimate activity of the press agent, says the Democrat and Chronicle. They do not, as a rule. shrink from publishing a good story dhat will help them interest their read CTS merely because its publication will incidentally help somebody else in a business way. But they hate to be worked by a press agent. They re- sent being tricked into printing ad- vertisements gratuitously in their news columns. When they discover that they have been thus tricked by a press agent his usefulness has depart ed. The newspapers won't print a line suspected of emanating from him no matter how closely the story may resemble legitimate views of great inn portance. One of the most brilliant and successful of theatrical press agents thus came to grief years ago He overdid. The newspapers discov- cred how expertly he had worked them and he was taboo" He exhausted

FASHIONS IN HOUSEHOLD PETS
Boston Terrier tho Dog of the -Four
 Great Danes for the Country.

Dame fashion must be busy indeed for of late years she has not been con- tent to lay down the laws which govern wOmen's furbelows. but has taken up the task of deciding what a woman shall have in the way of pets.
 It seems only a year or so since the English pug was the most desirable and fashionable canine, but now any American woman who pretends to be in the swim has Boston terrier. This is a smaller and less honlely breed than the bulldog. He is not bow-legged and he has a very short, but reasOna bIy l intelligent face. The tail is bitten off when the pup is a few weeks old. Neither is he hard to bring up, but be- cause he happens to be the fad with
 the 400" the young Boston terrier without a pedigree to boast of will | bring $35. On the other hand. the orce popular pug can be picked up during i his puppydom for thirty-five cents or a | trifle more.
 The Gibsonesque girl and the athletic | girl remain loyal to the English bull | dog, the uglier the better. For the country home the Great Danes are con sidered, by all odds, the smartest dogs 1 They are huge creatures and if they simply brush against a child the force | is sufficient to knock the litle one on ! his feet; consequently well bred Dane learns early to show his affection in ! his eyes alone. He Is an exIensive pet
 and eats as much as four men. He is

RICHNESS OF THE ENGLISH
 LANGUAGE,

We scarcely appreciate what q treas ure we posses in our English tongue. The voca bulary of Euglsh has b"e9 enriched by plunder from every land adapted to any idea, and is a tongue which welcomes an yaccessions when those are necessary. It is not by it's intrinsic virtue. however that the Eng fish language is spreading and is be- coming the cosmopolitan medium of communication, but rather by the in creasing inportan1a of those that spea k English. The British and the Ameri- cans control a large portion of the worlds trade. Their influence is felt everywhere. They sell to everybody and everybody wishes to sell to them. Verify, the English language has come forward since the time when Bacon, despairing of the perpetuity of the English tongue, translated some of his works into Latin.-San Francisco Bulletin.

Increased Wealth of Wage Farmers

The impression Is by no means con- fined to a few that although the United States has made vast strides in recent years in the accumulation of corporate wealth, the we'll being of the wage earners, as it is measured by their bank deposits. has undergone little real inn provement. This, however, is unques- tionably an erroneous impression, for figures are obtainable which clearly show that the wage earner today has q larger amount of money to his credit in the savings bank than he had. say. in 1887.
 Ler us examine the facts. The total number of depositors in the savings banks of the United States in 1903 was 7.SO5, ,22S. or about twice as many as in 1887. In the meantime the entire vol u1ne of deposits increased from $1,235.- PAT. S71 in 1887 to s2.s35. 5.2O4.S45 in 1903. so that the average individual holding is today more than 10 per cent larger than it was seventeen years ago.
 Of course these 7,OOO, 900 depositors cannot all be classed as wage earners, | but students of the question say that one-half is representative of this class. Before we draw conclusions, however. it should be mentioned that the total amount of deposits accredited to the wage earner does not indicate the full extent of his possessions. Personal boarding probably amounts to no in- considerable dimensions. Payments to life insurance companies also divert a substantial part of the wage earners revenues, and certainly a modest part of it has, within the past few years found investment in stocks and bonds. The building and loan associations, with as- sets Of more than s5OO,OOO. .OOO, have also attracted a modest proportion of the country's wages. Consequently, it .s clear that deposits in savings banks by no means fully indicate the wealth of the wage earning class, Perhaps il is safe to say that at present there is g far more strongly marked disposition on the part of the wage earning classe. to invest their savings in some form oi security than there was seventeen years ago. so that the only inference to be drawn is that their wealth, as represen- ted by their Investments has increased proportionateIy faster than their de. posits in the savings banks.

the taboo" The barest mention of his name or that of his star in any news story from any source was fatal to it. Finally he was killed in a terrible rail-
 way disaster. The story of the awful wreck was soon pouring into the news paper offices over the press wiress Its importance was recognized. Every managing editor was running it flor a sensation" By-and-by the list of the killed began to come in and 10, the brilliant press agents name led all the rest. Instantly. in every important newspaper office, was heard the man aging editors sharp order Kill that railway fake" They say that only one New York daily, and that the "slowest" of them all, had the news that morn ing of the biggest railway accident of the year. The press agent of the Chi cago University has certainly worked the press of the country as no other press agent ever did before. He has secured the publication of millions of cellars worth of free advertising, not merely in the news colums of the most carefully edited newspapers. but even
 in the sacred editorial columns them selves. Now the fate of his brilliant predecessor has overtaken him. Even routine news of the University of Chi cago will be regarded with suspicion and anything unusually interesting ol sensational will go straight into the
 waste basket. If every professor, should proclaim himself a militant anarchist provide his pupils with bombs and lead them forth to blow up the board oi
 trade. no newspaper outside of Chi
 cago would take the story as it came
 over the wire. without careful verif-
 cation, and no editorial writer eoull
 be induced seriously to discuss it. "A
