The declaration by Charles S.
Young, advertising manager Of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul Rail
way, in a university extension lecture
that railways have found newspaper
advertising more profitable than any
other form Of advertising, points to a
truth that has been growing steadily
in recognition for several years. 1t is
only natural that it won early recogni-
ton as truth among those in a voca-
ton attracting, as railroading con-
fessedly does, large share Of the
best ability of the age.
Concurrently with railway mana
gers, the managers of all kinds OF
theatrical and other amusements, an
other vocation demanding the most
alert intelligence, recognized this same
truth, and the huge crop Of posters,
Autographs and other window and
wall paper they had long maintained
disappeared.
The superlatlve quality Of any par
ticular thing could hardly be fortified
more conclusively than by these two
unqualified testimonies in precept and
practice from two Of the professions
in which 1t is most of all necessary
that methods shall be both intelligent
and modern in the best sense.
Modern advertising may be said to
have been born with the modern news
paper and to have grown up with ii
practically as a part Of it. It's aim
is the dissemination among men and
women Of prompt knowledge of where
they may secure on the most accept
able terms whatsoever they may le.
ultimately desire. It's best medium,
therefore, is one which keeps abreas:
with its time, takes hold on the atten-
ton Of the largest number Of people
who want things and maintains for
itself character for honesty, respon-
sibility and intelligence that com.
mands the respect and confidence of
the community Chicago Chronicle.

RUSSIAN NIHlLlsTs.
The Tragedy From Which the Party
and Its Creed Sprung.

The Tragedy From Which the Party
and Its Creed Sprung.
Who was the first nihilist? How
and where did nihilism first start?
These questions are answered in the
following narratives:
Exactly forty-three years ago, when
Muravien, the lieutenant of the. pres
ent cars father, was carrying out
his cruel and barbaric crusade against
Poles, a young student of that
try attending the University Of Dorpat
returned home n day with half a
dozen companions, whom he promised
to entertain in his fathers house.
They entered, and a CHASTITY spectacle
met their view. The whole family had
been massacred, while the mother and
sister of the young Pole had been
brutally treated by Muravief's cow
ardly soldiers, drunk with vodka.
The students, who yer Russians,
stood dumb with horror, while the be-
reaved boy sat down by a little table.
His head rested on his left hand,
while his right arm hung Imply by his
side. His companions expected o wild
outburst Of rage against themselves
and their country, but the boy did not
speak. He just SGT there, pale and
deathlike, while tears poured from his
CLASSY eyes. 81
One Of his friends went over to him
and, touching him on the shoulder.
said.la Is, 81 ef $
4.stanisiau1! stanislaus!, Come to
! yourself again. and we will avenge
this wyrronug!!'' + -.~*'
But the boy did not answer In a
few minutes the tears ceased to flow,
the eyes turned upward, there was q
heavy sigh. and stanislaus fell dead
from his chair. @
The terrible shock had killed him.
Kneeling round the body Of their
dead companion, the Russian students
bound themselves by a solemn oath to
work out the ruin of the tyranny which
had thus disgraced their fatherland.
They secretly met afterward, and their
creed was thought out and settled. 1t
was the result Of careful thought and
was not wildly absurd or hysterical.
It was as follows: Liberty in rell-
gious belief, freedom of the press and
in public meeting, government on the
representative system and the redistri-
button of property" To secure these
things they determined to resort to any
measures-even assassination. And that
has been the creed Of the nihilists yer
since.-Pearson's Weekly.

The Proper Way to Ride the Animal
In the Water.
A military journal of Paris gives this

To begin with, it must not be sup
posed that q horse always swims nat
urally and with cas- the moment he is
of his feet in the water. The animal
under such circumstances has but one
notion-to keep his head out Of the wa
ter and to lift his shoulders as high al
possible.
In doing this his hind quarters sink
and he" finds himself almost standing
upon his tail, or at least in a position

the same time we'll forward upon his
shoulders. but, without touching the
horses head. The riders knees should
be pressed tightly to the horses sides;
otherwise he is likely to be swept of
by the water.
This is the only position which will
enable a man to remain in the saddle
and the horse to swim at the same
time.
The reins must be held loosely and
each well to one side. If the horse is to
be guided in the water give the loose
rein a little jerk in the direction de-
sired. But it is in the highest degree
Important never to pull on the reins.
