LOVE AND PUBLICITY.

Making love through the medium of
a sixty-inch advertisement in a daily
newspap is a great improvement
upon a personal" of two Or three
lines. A good deal can be said in
sixty inches, and Emmanuel Abraham
Lippman, Of Philadelphia. seem to
have successfully accomplished the
work Of a pioneer.
The man with cash and the pen Of
a ready writer can, in future, make
his sweetheart and everybody csc in
the city where she dwells, sit up and
take notice Of hts passionate and
pleading ~eloquence. He can touch all
hearts with some triumpnS of Ian
guage thai will make the ~culimanting
chapter Of a "best seller seem tame
and spineless. Where there is rivalry
and both chaps are using the press
the flow Of affectjon-and of hate
| will become a torrent Of mad rhetoric
worthy Of Cicero or Edmund Burke.
The golden G Of expression is about
! to return. The great style, the grand
style, the heroic style, will come
again. Find your Ruskin, dig up your
Carlyle, and study the of
the English language as a long-Wind-
ed instrument Of torture.
And Their what openings there will
soon be for competent writer's Of love
adsi A new branch Of a great pro-
~fession looms upon the horizon. What
a prospect for writer's Of gorgeous,
glittering, glowing effusions.
Mr.. Lippman's idea is a boost for
literature, a boom to business and a
blessing to the nearly broken-hearted
st. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Alarm i'm Stock Price

Some alarm has been felt in France
at the depreciation in the price Of he
national gilt-edged stock. the Eente.
which in 1897 stood at los. fell TO ~
in 1902 and at present IS quoted at
about 80. NJ. klotz. the Minister Of
FINANCE IN a recent speech took the
opportunity OF explaining this situa-
ton at the same time declaring his
entire agreement with the decision Of.
the Senate committee on the income
tax to exempt the Rente from taxa
ton.
1t was quite true. said NJ. kloIz.
that government stock had every
where fallen. but the fall was merely
a manifestation of a more general de-
probation Of all stock which yielded
a fixed interest. There was nothing
surprising in this decline. il had been
seen ever time that business as very
brisk and industry very active.
Another consideration was that the
capitalist felt the necessity of intreas-
ing his income on account Of the cost
of living. and his motive uidened the
action Of the movement to vh3,h ne
had referred.
1t would. however, be q disastrous
mistake to draw differences prejudi-
cial to public credit from this fall in
the Rente,
The credit Of France was 'odaN
hOWlnS us superiority, and he took
the opportunity Of warning French
men against persistent criticism II
the Rente. which might have the I'M
intended effect OF further depreciating
it.
The holder Of French Rentes, no
matter how large his holding. could
realize them at a moments notice and
whenever he liked. The Pente had
been described as a bank note: al anv
rate its holder could convert It into
cash with similar ease.
