VALUE OF ADVERTISING.

4 BRITISH NEWSPAPER started
II an inquiry some weeks ago 10
find the reason why Ceylon tea mad
grown into greater popularity than
that enjoyed by the Chinese product.
1t wanted to know what had caused
such marked change in the taste OF
the English public. The explanation
was found readily enough. For a long
time importers of Ceylon tea have
been advertising il literally. The
Chinese tea. in the meanwhile. has not
been advertised at all. TIE public, be-
ing constantly urged to try Ceylon tea,
did try it, liked il, and began using il
extensively.
If the Ceylon tea had not been adj
vertised il could hardly have been sold
i'm any quantity, for from time i'm
memorial Chinese Tea had been the
staple Now the tea from China has
been forced out Of the market almost
entirely in many places and it will
take a lot of hard work To get it back
TO even approximately its old standing.
But the inquiry of the British journal
did not stop at tea. It went into
Scotch whisky and soap and other
articles.
A particular brand Of Scotch whisky
was found TO have won immense popu-
larity. More Of it was being con-
sumed than of ali the other brands
combined. Advertising did it. Several
American soaps are very largely used
IN the United Kingdom. Speaking Of
the American soap manufacturers our
British contemporary is unkind enough
to say: Any success which they have
attained is due probably more to per-
sistent advertising than to the quality
of their wares" This is far from the
truth, and our contemporary should
have been fair enough to state the ex-
act truth.
Tt is possible by meritoriOus adver-
Using to sell quantities of an inferior
article But the sale Of that character
of goods cannot be very long main
tanned with any sort of advertising.
| The first requisite of an advertising
campaign is that the goods offered
must be worth the money; then the
advertising must be attractively
worded and displayed. But by all
means base your advertising on honest
articles IF you don't your day Of re-
tribution will not long be delayed

AN AMusIMa pocuMENT.

r HE REPORT of the special COM
mittee appointed by congress to
investigate the charges that certain
congressman had used their influence
improperly to secure good things from
the DOstoffice department for their
friends is a most amusing document.
In effect the report finds the accused
not guilty, but cautions them against
repeating their performance.
The report says the committee has
unanimously reached the conclusion
that nothing has appeared in said
cases that would justify the finding
that any member OF the house Of
representatives has profted financially
in the slightest degree, or that any
member was guilty Of improper con-
duct in connection Herewith. or that
any member has done, in connection
with any of said cases, anything that
did not appear to be within the line
Of his official duty according to long
established custom"
1t win be noted that every members
record is thus pronounced as clean and
pure as snow newly fallen. They are
all as innocent as so many babes. They
didn't do a single thing that vas
wrong; they didn't so mucn as think
or dream of doing anything wrong.
Nevertheless. the committee found It
necessary to insert this paragraph in
it's report:
Having reached this conclusion the
committee feels constrained TO add
that in its opinion it would be well to
make as formal as may be. and to
restrain within the narrowest possible
limits, the action Of members in con-
nection with postoffices and details of
other executive matters. and that the
severance Of members from work -
that character would augment the eff
cheney Of the house of representa-
tiyes"
Ordinary people viii wonder why. II
the Representatives are so pure and
sweet and innocent, if there is nothing
at all reprehensible in their dealings
with the postofFice department, the
committee considered il necessary 10
suggest that the severance of work
of that character would augment the
efficiency Of the house of representa-
lives" The congressional mind works
fearfully and wonderfully when The
congressional reputation is at stake.
Maybe that's the reason those fell
lows are congressman.

BREAKFAST FOOD
Fun Tor the Kids.

There is nothing remarkable about
Pats appearance except that possibly
he is a harder locker than the average
dog. 1t is what Pat does that makes
him noteworthy. His latest break dis
rupted a Sunday school. Pat followed
one of the boys on Sunday and entered
the room without attracting the notice
OF the teacher. Pat behaved remark
ably well for a time. Then several Of
the kids, reasoning that Pat possessed
more potential interest than the lesson,
began to devise ways and means of
getting the excitement ont of the pup.
Half a dozen kids We're chewing gum,
in defiance Of a rule made and provided.
One able brain conceived an idea that
was promptly put into execution. Col
Letting gum from several kids the
owner of the able brain amalgamated
the several chews and rendered the re-
suit 70 Pat. Pat is always willing TO
take chance on anything that might
prove to be nourishment, and he
promptly seized the gum. A few sec
Onds later Pat discovered he was UP
against d new idea. His jaws did not
appear to work right, and he figured he
would get rid of what he had in his
month Standing on his hind legs he
fought his face with both paws Cor q

THE Ex-PRssIDsRT AGAIN.

w HATEVER ELSE may be said
W about ex-President Cleveland, no
body can properly accuse him of not
speaking plainly, so plainly that a child
can understand exactly what he means.
The latest example OF the Cleveland
outspokenness is found in his letter TO
Representative Bartlett and read on
the floor OF the house Tuesday. He had
been asked if he ever invited Frederick
Douglas. colored, 10 his wedding recep-
tion and If he signed a bill providing
for mixed schools while governor Of the
state Of New York.
Replying. Mr.. Cleveland said: Il can
not arrord To devote a great deal Of
time To denying such foolish tales. I
shall therefore attempt to cover every
phase of the subject now and for all.
il so happened that have never in my
official position, either when sleeping or
waking. alive or dead, on my head or
on my heels, dined, lunched or supped
or invited TO a wedding reception any
colored man, woman or child"
Discussing the mixed school ques-
ton. Mr.. Cleveland said that when he
was governor a proposition was made
10 abolish separate schools for whites
and blacks. and he opposed it A bill
with this object in view failed to be-
come law. He doesn't remember wheth-
or he interposed a veto or not, but
whatever action he took was against
the idea of aboiishins the separate
schools. Now all this discussion about
cleveland and the negroes Is unimport-
ant. but it shows that Mr.. Cleveland
has never been partial to the blacks.
An attempt seems TO have been made
d make the ex-president an issue in
the campaign. He is not an issue and
should not be made an issue. 1t is his
right as a private citizen TO express
his views on political matters from time
10 time, but the question as To whether
o. not he entertained negroes is not
vital TO the campaign. Personally We
would enter no protest if he had en-
tertained negroes. President Roosevelt
had a right to entertain a negro at his
table If he desired to do so.
After all, the Roosevelt table Is the
Roosevelt table. II is none of our bus
mess if ne surrounds # with negroes
every day and several times a day.

LOSS OF THE PETRoPAvLovsK,


II HE LOSS Of the battleship Petro-
paylovsk with 500 men and Admiral
Makaroff is the severest check the Rus
slams have yet received in the Orient
The Petropavlovsk was one Of Russia's
finest fighting ships and, as the flagship
of Admiral MakarOff she was manned
by a picked crew. More serious than
shocking though that is is the death Of
Admiral Mazaroff.
Great things were expected OF this
naval commander. He went to the front
carrying the hopes Of all the Russians
The most brilliant and the most en-
ergetic officer in the Russian navy he
was pronounced by the Paris Figaro,
and the London Standard declared him
10 be "a scientific mariner Of distin-
guished ability" But the Standard
added. and the event seems to justify
the assertion. that Makcron was not
considered in England "A fighting sea-
man.
For days there has been talk about
tile bold dash Makaroff was contem-
plating. It was confidently expected by
Russian partisans that he would sweep
the sea clear of the Japanese feet But
Makaroff never went out to fight the
Japanese until yesterday. And. accord
ing to one account. before he could fire
a shot his ship ran into a mine. a Rus
sian mine. and within a few moments
went to the bottom of the sea. So
swift was the destruction that only
three or four OF all the men on board.
among them the Grand Duke Cyril.
We're saved.
BY SO much are the chances Of the
japanese to be victorious i'm the war in
creased. The lost battleship can hard
ly be replaced before the end Of the
war: whether or not Russia can pro-
duce an ADLER admiral than Makaroff
remains 70 be seen. There is ample
reason, therefore, for mourning in the
land OF the car today, for mourning in
high places and in low.
-And the pathetic feature Of the en-
lamity is the fact that it was 50 I'M
necessary. Tt is said that the mine had
broken from its fastenings. and this is
it was not the first time in the war
that Russian ships have been destroyed
by Russian mines. The man who laid
the mines, il viii be remembered, was
himself blown up by one OF them. and
there is no chart in existence showing
their location. II a duplicate chart had
been made the accident to the Petro-
pavlovsk could hardly have occurred.
II the ship and her men had gone
down I'm actual combat with her colors
flying and amid all the pomp and pa
noply OF war the disaster would seem
less terrible. AS it is, the Russians Will
have the sympathy Of great many
people in their national bereavement.

presence Of Pat to the teacher and she
shouted put that dog OUT" 1t took
some time TO ensnare Pat, who was
doing some great stunts, vocally and
physically. The little girls and teacher
dear climbed up on the seats, while the
boys valiantly charged on Pat. Pat
was at length captured and teacher,

boys that Pat couldn't bite, came 10

moved from Pats mouth, but consid-
cradle Of it could not be dislodged. Pat
experienced great relief. however, and
was rUthlessly cast outside, where he
enlivened the further progress of the

lesson that day was pronounced a fall-
ure, and if Pat is ever brought to
Sunday school again the boy bringing
him will not get one of the large pic

THE ALTON SCHOOL CASE.

The famous Alton School case has
been decided against the Afro-Amer-
lean. The board of education several
years ago built a special school for
Afro-Americans Scott Bib and a
number Of others refused to send their
children there and attempted to send
them to. the nearest public school.
The superintendent Of schools refused
to permit this and a suit for manda-
mus was brought in Bibbs' name
against the officials.
The suit has been to the appellate
and supreme courts a number of times,
and has been, reversed and remanded
upon various points each time. An
appeal will be taken to the state SUI
preme court.
Money will be needed to make the
fight and the Afro-A Americans Of ILL
nois ought to furnish it.
The Appeal will give $40 to- start the
fund. How much will you give. kipd
