THE WAY TO BELIEVE IN ADVER
Using.

The average merchant-nOt the big
and dominating one, but the average
one-knows more about the kind Of
a location he should have, the kind Of
a building, the sort Of fixtures, the
grades and kinds Of goods, the kind
Of clerks, the sort Of deliverery sys-
TEN, ana credit system, the secrets Of
when and where and how to buy and
the Bnack of really producing bar
gain offerings than he knows about
the art Of real and effective store-sd-
vertising.
He devotes two hours Of his time
to-day to closing a deal for wrapping
paper-another hour to teachings
boys or girls how to wrap up pack
ages-another hour to an inspection
Of newly arrived goods-takes a look
at the accounts-allow subordinates
to take up his time with such weighty
questions as that Of where to have
the delivery horses shod-and finds
himself too busy" to perpare a really
forceful. human-interest store-adver-
tisement
OF course, the average merchant"
is not Intentionally Gripping his
store-he simply allows a multitude
OF small things to shut out the import
ance Of the really vital thing-the
store-publicity. He believes in al

The Power to Enforce
Proper Coast Quarantine.

The Journal is glad to give space to
the following from Dr. Warren E.
Anderson:
Pensacola. Fla, Nov. IL. 1905.
Editor PensRc0la Journal.
tn your comment this morning on
DIT. POrter's views of federal control
OF quarantine, YOU evidently over
looked the doctors reference. to the
federal act of 1898. which in Section
Three especially provides for recall
citrant state health governments in
the matter of enforcing quarantine
measures which do not come up To
The requirements of the United States
treasury quarantine regulations.
The President of the United States
is not only empowered. but Is com-
mand6d 30 detail and appoint officers
Tor the purpose OF carving ont thp
specific requirements of the treasury
quarantine laws when a state or
municipality fails or refuses to en-
force the same.
Therefore there is at present sun
Gent Jaw without appealing to con-
gress 10 enact another. for the
unite1 States treasury department
through the Public-Healtn and Marine
Hospital Service To assume charge Of
such state guarantees and enforce
the federal regulations where and
when the states do not adopt and
carry into effect the United states
quarantine laws.
Here Isl a portion Of the section Of
The act OF 1893 10 which reference
has been made "And when said rn1es
and regulations have been made 1ra.

Some More Coos Work Of
the Chamber Of Commerce.

If the Chamber Of Commerce had
done nothing else during the past year
to demonstrate IFS usefulness, the sue
cess Of its enou to secure a soil sur
vey Of Escambia county by the United
states government would be compen-
sation many times over for all the
work and money which membership
in its organization entails.
Early in the year Secretary w. G.
Jones took the matter uD with the De
parment OF Agriculture. with the re
suit as published in The Journal a
few DAYS ago. that soil survey parties
have been ordered to begin the work
about December l.
There are some $50 square miles, or
4S5.20O acres, embraced in Escambia
county. A part of this land is sup
posed TO have little value, while other
portions Of it are known to be rich In
soil resource
The survey. which viii include every
acre Of land in the county, win deter
mine the different characters Of soil,
with mechanical analysis Of eacn.
showing what soils are suited for the
various crops raised here and what
other crops It may be possible TO
raise, and the result viii be written
up and published by the government.
This descriptive report win be en-
bellished with tables. showing the dit
ferent characteristics of soils and
with a map showing exactly in what
parts of the county the soils are 10
Gated
The survey win be of inestimable
value to Escambia county and cons6
quently to Pensacola itself, and the
Chamber Of Commerce is TO be con
graduated on its success in securing
the order to have the survey made.

trust may never exist again.

ferers. The city can find many ways
OF using any money it has to spare
better than paving it to doctors whose
services are not needed.
The facts in che case are just this:
There have been during the presence
OF the fever three assistants TO the
city physician Two Of them were
employed and paid by the Relief Com
mittee. and one was employed by the
city for one month at salary OF
$4,000.
The two physicians employed by tne
Relief Committee did not and win moi
draw a cent Of pay from the city and
their services were dispensed with
some DAYS ago. The one physician
who was employed for one month by
the city viii be paid $4,000 for hi,
services and his time win be up to
morrow.
The News either did not investigate
this matter before making its uncall

case it Is unworthy the respect or con

On one occasion he asked the girl in
attendance for poached eggs She
looked a bit nonplused at first. but
after little hesitation replied, There
are no poached eggs In the place, sir,
but l think l could get you some
poached salmon"
In poor little cottage of two rooms
he saw married couple and seven
children. Hearing a baby cry, he
asked to see 1t and explained that he
took an interest in babies, having one
at home. The infant was produced
for inspection, and the mother asked
proudly, "Is yours as big as that,
SIR" To which he replied, Il think it
is little bigger" Instantly the in
stncts Of the mother were reused,
and, tossing her head, she said: 80
well it might be That's only half Of
ours; the other half is with God. We
had twins"
At a hotel one of the party asked,

''No, sir" was the significant answer.

DANCING PILGRIMS.
The Annual Carnival of the "Saintsr

On every succeeding Whitsun Tues

10000 pilgrims of both sexes and of ev-
cry age and condition of life dance
for four or five hours at Echternach, in
the grand duChy Of Luxemburg, to an
unmistakable polka tune and an appar-
emily nonsensical refrain. The central
figure of this great Echternach spring

grated from Northumberland to the

centuries ago. Emperors and kings

is as popular today as it was in 1131,
when King LOthalre came to pray at
St Willibrord's tomb. The simple mind

REPUBLICAN
STATE CONVENTION

HARRISBURG, April 26 Without

four candidates agreed upon by the
Repu blican organization several weeks
ago were nominated at the state con
yention held here today They are

Hon. Charles E. Rice, of Wilkes
barre Hon. James A. Beaver, of Belle
fonte, and Hon. George B. Orlady,

judges.
There was but one session and the
business Of the convention was dispos-
ed of in record breaking time. The
program arranged by the party lead
ers semed to meet with favor all along
the line. for not a word of protest was
heard or even a question asked by any
delegate during the deliberations.
Thomas Hays of Butler county. who
was mentioned for state treasurer with
drew from the contest yesterday al
teruoon and as already stated Plum
mer had very smooth sailing. Mr..
Plummer was on the ground for forty
eight hours before the convention aud
had headquarters in the Common
wealth Hotel He managed his own
campaign and succeeded in finally
landing the coveted prize by a un-
animous vote.
Wesley R. Andrews, of Meadyllie,
who for years has been Secretary CT
the Repu ublican state committee, sue
ceeds Senator Penrose as chairman the
Senator refusing to again be a Candi
date.
The platform indorses the state and
national administrations; approves the
work of the last legislature; favors
the continuance of the present pension
policy; advocates the enlargement OF
the rural free delivery system; ap-
proves Senator Penrose's management
as state chairman and commends the
capitol commission for its work in
pushing the new capitol.
Because there were no contests the
convention which met in the Lyceuu
Theatre at 10 80 o'clock this morning
was one of the shortest and most har-
monious on record but Notwithstanding
the absence of contests there was a

KNOWLEDGE AND CULTURE
The Two Do Not Necessarily Walk
Hand In Hand.

The Two Do Not Necessarily Walk
Hand In Hand.
High marks in examinations depend
upon q trained memory and a power
OF acquiring irrelevant Information.
Culture, on the contrary, is a sym
pathetic assimilation of the best in the
realm Of thought and achievement
Culture is a slower process and deep
er, and its reward strikes further In.
Assimilation of-the best that has been
thought and accomplished affects not
merely the brain, but the character
the whole spirit OF man. Culture
implies a soil plowed and fertilized,
where whatever seed falls has the
better chance for growth. Informa-
ton even In vast quantities, so long
as 1t remains mere Information, used
for purposes Of passing examinations,
need not affect the manners nor the
morals of a man; both may remain
hOpelessly lax in an encyclopaedia
mine OF facts But culture affects
primarily the manners and the morals.
A cultured gentleman has external
methods Of getting on with his kind;
he has the true sense of relationship.
the feeling that all he can learn to feel
or to be is not for himself, but for
service; he knows himself in a net
work of human inter-relations. In the
end the test of knowledge is not eX-
