 Carefully the father explained that he was the Senate chaplain, and that all sessions were opened with prayer.
 Oh, said the youngster. he prays for the Senate, does he?'
 No" returned the father thoughtfully, not exactly. He looks at the Senate and then he prays for the country
 This suggests another story One time when the chaplain of the Sen ate prayed, Senator T C. Platt of New York was the only man in his seat When this fact was point ed out to another senator. he re- piled
 Well. I cant think of anybody who needs prayers more than Platt does

ADVERTISING ADAGEs.

Advertise first. then theorize
 Advertising never takes day off.
 Sweet are the uses of advertis- ing
 No day without an advertisement.
 The path to the purse is publici- ty.
 Don't let the public guess; tell them
 Advertise to-day and sell to-mor- row.
 No man buys what he never heard of.
 Trust in Providence and print CTS ink
 Poor advertisements are better .ian none
 Advertising that costs nothing is worth it
 If ashamed Of your business. keep it dark
 There is nothing so lucky, as advertising
 Plant advertisements that sales nay grow.
 Thibet doesn't advertise; but this is America
 You kno. P T. Barnum. Queer lsn't it.
 Honesty is the best policy with advertising
 If your business is honest, why E'ake it a secret
 The best advertising is the cheap est in the end
 Flowers may blush unseen-you must advertise
 You know what is advertised 50 do others.
 If you don't advertise your busi- ness the sheriff may
 Fishing without bait is business without advertising
 Never put off until tomorrow the advertising of to-day
 Mind your own business and put others in mind Of 1t
 Every advertisement hits some 5cdy- some hit everybody
 Put plain story in print-flour- ishes in the waste basket
 You can speak to friends, but must advertise to strangers
 To get what you want. make others want what you've got
 When this you see. remember me. is the key to advertising
 The only things that survived the past are those that Were printed
 The man that doesn't advertise ought to ehum with l mummy
 The pen is mighter than the sword the printing press than gat- ing guns.
 The greatest advertisers do not advertise over and over simply for amusement
 You address the whole communi-
 when yoa advertise-a few when sou srumbie
 You needn advertise fl you have more business than you want-un- less you need help
 There's no law compelling a mer- chant to advertise except the law of business success.
 Custom without truth is but the rust of error. and custom without advertising is an accident. Ex- change.
