Doesn't Jerk Just Pulls.

''If there is one enterprise
on earth that a 'quitter'
should leave entirely alone it
is advertising. To make
success of advertising, one
must be prepared to stick to
it like a barnacle on boats
bottom. He should know be-
fore he begins it that he must
spend money. Somebody
must tell him, also, that he
cannot reap results commens-
urate with his expenditure
early in the game.
"Advertlsing doesn't jerk,
it pulls. It begins very gent
~ at first, but the pull is
steady. It increases day by
day and year by year until it
exerts an irresistible power.

A Case of Interpretation.

What shall we do with the pris- oner?" demanded the spokesman of the mob. Do thou, o royal chamberlain, haste to the presence of his majesty and learn his wish"
 The royal chamberlain hurried to the presence and bowed himself thrice to the floor. Then he asked the mon- arch's pleasure regarding the desperate outlaw.
 Away with him." said the king in loud, harsh voice.
 But the chamberlain was something of humorist and when he returned to the mob he laughlngly announced that, in regard to the misdolngs of the pris- oner, the king had said only that 1t was "a way with him."
 Whereupon the mob reluctantly re- leased its quarry.
 But in trying to explain the joke to the obtuse king the royal chamberlain became confused and completely lost his head.-Baltimor American.

Mad Mullah's Miracle.

A good story is told of how the Somali Mullah worked one of those miracles which drew many waver CTS to his banner.
 An English man-of-war was sent to demonstrate off the coast, and at night threw searchlght on to the jungle covered mountains. Abdullah was in hiding there, and knowing from his visits to Alden what it was that his followers hailed as a new star told them that the light was seeking him
 When the electric rays actually food ed his encampment he cried in tri umph: twill you deny now that I am the eye of God?"
 The Somali fell on his knees, beat the earth with their foreheads and re- piled: "Thou are truly the elect, the chosen, the mullah, the master Our goods, our existence, our souls belong to thee. We place ourselves entirely at the disposition of thy will."-Lon- don Express.

Best Asbestos Mines.

Commercial asbestos is a fire-resist, ing substance composed of silky fibers up to six inches in length which can be used for packing or woven into fab rics. It's value corresponds approxi- mately with the length of the fiber It is prepared from a mineral of varia- ble' color, which is usually found de. posted in thin sheets in the seams of granite rock. The fiber is normal to tho sheets and it's length is thus linn ited by the thickness of the seam. The most important deposits so far discov- cred in America are one of fesh-col- ored mineral in Arizona and a green deposit at Black Lake, in the Province of Quebec, Canada. In order to secure the asbestos mineral it is necessary to quarry the granite in which it occurs and afterward separate the materials by crushing.
