Persistent Advertising.

A splendid story was told at re.

burg to illustrate the results which
can be achieved by persistent adver-
tising. In a Pittsburg rolling mill a
bar OF steel weighing half a ton was
suspended by a chain, and near it was
hung a bottle cork by silk thread.
The cork was allowed to swing against
the great mass of metal, striking at
each time the same spot. No result
was perceptible for ten minutes, when
the bar began to quiver. In thirty.
five minutes it was swinging like the
pendulum OF a clock. Advertisers who
expect immediate and big results from

public, would do we'll to ponder this
story. 1t is the patient, persistent
hammering, kept up month after
month and year after year, that is
certain to start the pendulum of sue.

EVERYBODY Is lOpsided,

The two sides of persons face are
never alike. The eyes are ont OF line
in two cases out OF five, and one eye
is stronger than the other in seven
persons out of ten. The right ear is
also, as a rule, higher than the left.
Only one person in fifteen has perfect
eyes, the largest percentage of defects
prevailing among fair-haired people.
The smallest interval of sound can be
better distinguished with one ear
than with both. The nails Of two
fingers never grow with the same
rapidity, that OF the middle finger
growing the fastest, while that of the
thumb grows slowest. In ffty.four
cases out of hundred tho left leg il
shorter than the right. The bones OF
an average human male skeleton
weigh twenty pounds, those of q wo.
man are six pounds lighter.

HYMNS YOU OUGHT KNOW.
lil EDWARD PERRONET.

edward Perronet, London, 1726-
l792), an eccentric preacher associated
with the Wesleys, would have been
long ago forgotten but for his one
great hymn. He wrote several other
hymns, but they have all passed out

and gatherings in India and in Africa,
and in China, sing it with the same
emphasis as those at home. In the
United States it is usually sung to the
tune Coronation" while in other
lands Miles Lane" is used. The
hymn has always been favorite with
soldiers being sung frequently on the
march, and in some instances its
throbbing strains have put new life
into. dispirited regiments and swung
them back into line, turning defeat
into victory. The last verse OF the
hymn is said to have been added by
John Rippon, in 1857.
All hail the power of Jesus name!
Let ANGELS prOSt rate fall
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown him Lord of all.
Crown him, We morning stars OF light,

There are parts in Kentucky where
some Of the mountaineers have never
seen a locomotive. One of these
mountaineers who drifted into civilizs.
tion encountered a railroad train
and took to fligh. down the track.
The engineer stopped the train and
captured what he supposed was a
crazy man. Finding him sane, though
breathless, the engineer in anger asked
him why he did not get off the track.
"Get off the track!" roared the
mountaineer. "If I'd ever took to

ATTRACTIVE AGE OF WOMEN.
Instances Given Showing 1t Is Somewhat Be-
yond The Meridian of Life.

Speaking of the most attractive age
OF women, Sophie Gates Kerr says
in the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette:
History tells us that passionate love
was given to George Eliot when she
had passed her sixtieth birthday; to
Nine. de Stael at IL, and to Char
lottc Bronte at sc.
, Helen OF Troy was Al when she fas-
cinated Paris with her beauty and
charm and fled with him to make sub.
! ject matter for all sorts OF ancient and
modern writers, from Homer to Edgar
Saltus. She was old enough to know
better. If she had foreseen the amount
OF notoriety to be hers it is quite likely
she would have preferred the dullness
of virtuous obscurity.
Three generations of the house OF
Levigne paid equally ardent court to
Ninon de 'PEnclos, and Nine. de
Maintenon was so when the greatest
monarch OF Europe married her for
love. Nine. Recamier had lost none
of her beauty at 55. For modern ex-
amples, there is the Divine Sara and
the adorably vivacious Rejane.
Balzac declared that q woman was
most attractive at 80. Guy de Maui
passant admitted that a woman might
be attractive at 40. while Thomas
Hardy Chat exceedingly dreary voice
crying in the wilderness) goes so far
as to insinuate that woman's per.
sonal charm is gone at 33.
With this confliction and wide di.
vergence of opinion it is impossible
that all should be right. Therefore,
let us presume that all are wrong, at
at least when they fix definite age
for women to fade and break.
There is no definite age for this.
How can there be?' It's unhappiness
and unhappiness alone that pales the
fresh color, darkens the sparkling eyes
and droops pitifully the laughing
mouth, deadening the piquant manner
into apathetic listlessness.
How often do we hear this verified
in such EXPLANATIONS as these: "Poor
gir! She has never looked the same
since her mothers death There was
the gnawing pain of grief and loss
Il saw Eleanor to-day for the first
time since her marriage. How she
has broken" Domestic tragedy here,
hidden by the proud wife, yet patent
to the world in every line of her once
unmarked face and in her haunting
eyes.
One day every woman must look into
her mirror and see caricature OF her
former self. And unless she can call
back peace to her perturbed spirit and
quiet happiness to her spirit her beauty
is gone, and with it her charm, her
fascination, irrevocably.

number OF visitors increases proper
tionately.
The first settlement Of Dungeness
was made at the mouth of the river,
but AS the commercial importance OF
the place increased it was found that
the channel leading to the place was
too shallow, and steamers of ordinary
draught could not reach the place, so
it was decided TO move the town about
one and Il half miles east OF the mouth,
to point where steamers would have
plenty OF water. Since that time the
town has enjoyed An era OF prosperity.
For years past, and at the present time
1t is one of the leading dairy sections
of the Northwest, and its creameries
have reputation all over the entire
Coast. The Dungeness valley is most
fertile and productive, the farmers are
prosperous and happy, and are well
supplied with the good things, as well
as the necessities of life.
There is perhaps no section in the
State that has produced more promi.
nent men than has Dungeness. John
Weir. one OF the pioneer settlers of
Dungeness, was the father OF Allen
Weir, the first Secretary OF State for
Washington. The late Charles M.
Bradshaw, who was member of the
first Constitutional Convention and
the Republican nominee for Congress
In 1882, was pioneer OF Dungeness.
Capt. McAlmond, who is we'll known
all along the Coast, was also one of
the early settlers. Smith Troy, father
OF ID. s. Troy, manager of tho Glendale
creamery and other creameries in this
section, was among the pioneers, aud
was prominent in local and State poli.
tics, as we'll as Mr.. Brown field, II. Da.
Wis. John Donald, Thomas Abernethy
and many others. All, however, have
crossed the great divide with the ex.
ception OF John Donald and Capt. Nc.
Almond, both OF whom are quite aged,
but are hale and hearty, and bid fair
to attend many more annual reunions
OF the pioneers.

A SONG OF THE CAN,

When 60 to lunch with Belinda,
With mock-turtle soup We begin,
1t comes ready-made from the grocer's,
Already to serve from the tin.
The mayonnaise comes in a bottle;
Baked beans and bacon are canned,
Even hash and Plum pudding, Belinda
Has cans OF both dainties on hand.
And when we have finished our luncheon
We sit ON Belinda's divan,
And listen to graphOphOne music,
That comes, as it were, by the can.
Once, might ruled the world, in the ages
When sheer brutal force had its way,
But gone are those times-gone forever
'Tis the can rules the world to-day.
-WashtngtOn Post.
Yes, the can which passes our window,
Some ten or twelve times a day;
1t is filled with the strenuous spirit
That driveth dull care away.
