ADVERTISING,


0ne of the Many AnrVeIs Of Thu.
Progressive Age.
Among the many marvels of this
marvellous age there is none more
striking and none more characteristic
than the art of advertising IA develop
ed IN modern times. We talk much
about the wonders of the telephone
and the monograph, about the aston
lshing expansion OF railroads and teleg
raphy. but here We have an industry
as remarkable for its extension and as
wide and varied In Its applications as
anything of mans device IN any era of
the worlds history When there Is
brought into consideration the vast
amount of money expended In adVer-
Using In our day. the novel and in
genius methods employed and the ex-
pert skill and artistic talent engaged in
the business, one may begin to realize
what wide field has been opened here
for some Of the highest and most use
full forms of human endeavor.
With all Its abuses and they are not
Il fewlt remains true that advertising
Is one of the greatest of popular edu-
Gators aud one of the chief promoters
of human happiness and prosperity.
and there are yet many ways In which
1t may be extended to the still greater
benefit of the world. No good reason
exists why the churches. the Sunday
schools, the missionary societies aud
other agencies or good should not al
yertise far more than they do and thus
add to the membership and their power
In the community. 10 set their nd
yantages, aims aud benefits before the
public In proper way and form would
Involve no loss or dignity or prestige.
while 1t would almost certainly widen
their influence.
The time must come. too, when the
absurd code which prohibits physicians
and other professional classes from ad
vertlsing themselves must be abolished
There Is nothing but sentiment to
prevent II and Il very weak sentiment
at that 1t should be no more infra

IMMORTALITY.

one Theory OF the Condition That
Comes After Death.
Our life does not begin with birth,
nor does ii conclude with death. 1t Is
only section of the development OF
mankind before and after us. We ex-
lsted before we were born. and we
reap what the factors of our being
have sown. So our life leaves its after
effects, aud they will he what we have
made them.
The truth is that while there h no
immortality Ia the sense In which most
religions hold 1t II we accept their doe
trines IN their literal meaning. eondl-
| lions In life are such In many respects,
| as If these doctrines We're true. For
while our bodily existence Is wiped out

| essential part of our own being (the
thoughts themselyesl remain. aud thus
our Immortality not as concrete IN
dlvidual and bodily incarnation, but
our soul, our character, the impulses
which we have given In life to others.
our aspirations aud most character
lstic features cannot be wiped out.

mind, either intultlyely by realizing the
power and Justice of the religious In
stinct or by having fathomed the prob
lem philos0phically In its very depths,
