Nothing so Funny.

There is nothing ON earth so mys-
teriously funny as newspaper adj
vertisement. The prime, first, last
and all the time object of advertise
ment is to draw custom. 1t is not,
was not and never will be designed
for any other human purpose. So
the merchant waits till the busy sea-
son comes and his store is so full of
custom that he can't get his hat off,
and then ne rushes to the newspapers
and puts in his advertisement. When
the dull season gets along and there
is no trade and he wants to sell goods
so bad he can't pay his rent he takes
out the advertisement. That is, some
of them do. but occasionally level
headed merchant puts in bigger one
and scoops in all the business while
his neighbors are making mortagages

Cupid And Cost OF Living.

The relation between the cost of
living and the activity In the is
suanee of marriage licenses is re-
cognized as intimate, even though
the economists may not be able to
express the subtle fact in mathe-
matfcaI formula. But there can be
no doubt that Cupid keeps an eye
on the market prices of provisions,
even though he may have little use
for the tailor.
There can be no doubt that this
sprightly promoter of felicity has
abandoned the old fallacy, enticing
but illusOry, that two persons can
live as cheaply as can one. Per-
haps that untruth in domestic mathe-
matics took form at time when
girls were different in some material
respects from the maidens of today
1t was once the fad that they should
be delicate, without appetite, TAX
ing food after the manner of birds,
with anemic results. They were
more fond of cakes and sweetmeatS
than of prosaic bread, potatoes, and
roast beef In those days there
might be more economy in the femi-
nine menu, even allowing that cake
costs more than bread But the girl
of today is brought up to be bux0m
and robust. There has been a reac-
tion, both sensible and widespread.
She takes proper pride in her ap-
petite and in her muscles, which she
has learned are not at all inconsis-
tent with gentle sentiment. She
emulates her brothers in fondness
for the open air and for suitable ath-
letics.-W Washington Post.
