THE
new YORK WORLD
THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION.
THE
Read Wherever the English Language
is Spoken.

The Thuce-a- Week World was brilliant
success in the beginning and has been
steadily growing ever since. Time is the
test of all things, and has set its seal of ap-
proval on the Thrice-a-Wee World, which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritory of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1908, will make
its news service, if possible, more exten-
sive than ever. All events of importance,
no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar year
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great
dailies can furnish at five or six times the
price.
The Thrice-a-Week World is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias is
never allowed to affect its news columns,
and Democrat and Republican alike can
obtain in its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrice-a-
Week World furnishes the best serial fiction,
elaborate market reports and other features
of interest.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular sub
scription price is only $1.00 per year and
this pays for 156 papers. We offer this un-
equaled newspaper and The SMYRNA TIMES
together one year for $1.75. The regular
subscription price of the two papers is $500

At one of the western army posts in
the days of Indian fights there was a
young lieutenant who was careful to
see that the regulations relating to sa-
luting were faithfully observed. One
day a soldier who was leading an OBJ
streperous mule to water and had both
hands fully employed in the task was
met by the lieutenant. The soldier,
who had an occupation which demand
ed his undivided attention, failed to sa-
lutte the martinez, who Immediately
called him to account for his remiss-
ness.
"Why do you not salute an officer
when you see himT" he demanded.
'sYou hold this mule and l VIII"
calmly returned the man.
But the lieutenant did not insist, ana
the regulations were broken.-Philadel-

"Gentlemann Defined

II IS a current custom in MANY of

cd 10 them some true and timely ideas
ABOUT being gentlemen in the demo-
cratic fashion proper to this untram-

lstlcs OF gentleman in democratic So
ciety, he submitted that he should be
gentle OF speech, quiet of dcmeanor,
serene person who does not buster,
OF oustle, or hurry, or vociferate. but
VINO pays attention with the intent
mind when is requisite to effective
ness. And he accorded him the dis
position to see the superiorities in
persons rather than their inferiorities,
ana preference for the society of his
superlors. And he held that he should
nave generous spirit, conforming his
NE to his resources, avoiding both Law
ishness and parsimony. He should be
conslderate, too, especially toward
tnose who are in any way in his pow
er' and should scrupulously avoid hurt
ing anyone weaker than himself. He
even denied him the precious privilege

man must be power, worker, a dis
interested laborer in the service of |
others; rot q weakling or a mere |
pleasure-seeker but strong and hard |

Company Formed in England to Ex-

Tried in America.

London.-Americans will doubtless
recall assertions that were made sew
eral years ago of the discovery of a
method of extracting gold frcm sea
water and the derision with which the
idea was laughed out of court. Lon
don folk now have an opportunity to
invest their money in such an under
taking, by which it is averred that an
unlimited supply of precious metal can
be obtained from sea water at a cost
of 910 for every 91OO extracted.

tific reputation is OF the highest, has

Ignorant Affectation,

The writer. lin the Hartford Courant),
being an observant.person, has noticed a
great many ladies and gentlemen OF
Hartford wearing band Of black Grape
on the left sleeve of their coat. With
out doubt the people who are wearing
this band are of the opinion that it is
the correct style for one in mourning;
such lie not the case, however; for the
wearing of band of crepe OF black
cloth on the left sleeve is an affecta-
ton borrowed from England, where it
was adopted for liveried servants. In
civil life it is sign of poverty, as it
was adopted by men who felt they could
not afford to buy entire mourning out
fits The band is proper for servants,
penurious and poor people, and hope
that our ladies and Beau Brummels"
of Hartford will refrain from this bad
form. ~
