will enable intelligent preparation of proposals
 The offers are opened in Washing ton at the time stated in the adver- tisement. and as soon thereafter as practicable, an agent of the depart ment is sent to make a personal ex- animation of the proposed locations and such others as he deems desirable Upon this report, together with rep resentations in writing from other sources, the department selects the site, and, if the property is to be ac- quired by purchase, accepts the offer of the successful bidder, subject to the conditions stated in the advertisement and the attorney generals approval of the title.
 Whenever the department is un- able to purchase an acceptable site at a reasonable price, or where accepta- ble title cannot be secured by voiun- tary conveyance, a selection is made and the title acquired by cendemna- tion proceedings, in which the price to be paid is judicially determined.
 The buildings eff any) on the site should be reserved by the vendor, to be removed upon notice after pay ment for the land has been made, Generally, notice to move is not given until the construction of the federal building is about to begin, if the ven dor is willing, pending such removal to pay a ground rent.
 Plans for public buildings are taken up in the order in which the titles to the sites therefor are vested in the United States, and the contracts for the construction are let at as early a date as practicable"
 The government proposal for sites for the federal building here reads as follows:

Costly Advertising.

The value of advertising space in
newspapers or magazines is based up
on two essential factors, class and
number Of readers and typographical
excellence. Without the latter q
good showing of the former is hard to
obtain. Artistic printed matter ss-
pscially in the form of journal sp-
psals to every one, but it makes no
difference how good the reading mat.
ter, if it is poorly made up of obsolete
type carelessly thrown together, shah
billy printed and bound, it attracts
little or no attention.
Some of the larger advertisers spend
fortunes for space in high-clsss publi-
cations. For instance, a single page
in one issue of the "Chicago News
costs $l,l4l.56; in the New York
American" $4,000; in the "New
York Herald" $698.25; in Collier s
Weekly" $l,6OO.OO in the "satur-
day Evening Post, $1,000. 90; in the
"Delineator," $1,SOO.OO; in the
"Woman's Home Companion" $1,-
10000; in the Youths Companion, "

Journal" 100000. Notwith'tand.

The HOundsvlIle Mound to Be Removed.

The famous prehistoric Indian
mound at Moundsville, West Virginia
which is the largest in the world, will
soon be thing Of the past. K. j.
McFsdden, owner Of the mound, Sc
cured permission from the city coun-
Gil at its meeting Monday evening to
lay a track from the mound to his
property near the Union station, which
he intends filling in with the dirt tax
en- from this famous relic. Mr.. Nc
Fadden stated that he would have the
track placed within few weeks and
start Immediately to tear the famous
old mound down.
The residents Of Moundsville, az
well as those through the State, are
very sorry to learn that this old relic,
which has stood for hundreds Of years,
being built by race Of people now
extinct and which the present United
States history knows little Of, will be
torn down. Efforts have been made
several times to have the Legislature
appropriate money for the purchase
and preservation of the mound, but
thew were never successful.
