JOHN LEGG'S PLAIN TALK.
Made In an Advertisement He Put In
the Paper In 1897.

the Paper In 1887.
Advertising in the sun three quarters
Of a century ago was worded more pic
turesquely than it is now in some re
spects. No big type was used, but the
advertisements hit the mark without
its aid. II is TO be doubted II some Of
the advertisements which appeared
then could get into print now, for they
were outspOken to a degree which
would offend modern susceptibilities.
For example here is an advertisement
which appeared in the Sun Of May 26,
1897:
To Shoemakers-10 Kackmen Wanted
The subscriber gives the highest city
wages for good work and begs those
worthless who would filch him of his stuffs
not to visit him. II would be an agree
able surprise to him IL John Kemp, Thom-
as Prlngle, Isaac Morgan and few 9TH
ers would bring in the work they have so
long forgotten" to return.
JOHN LEGG, l64 sth avenue
The trade supplied cheap and good.
'Kackmen" seems to have gone out
OF use completely. 1t is not given In
any of the modern dictionaries, but one
Of them has "cack, a babys shOe,"
which 1t calls shoemakers' cant.
In the same number Of the Sun II,
Baxter Of Fulton street advertised
that he wanted broken bottles, but he
did not state his use for them. There
are several advertisements for men to
go on whaling vOyages,-New York

Colored Glasses.

Wearing spectaces to protect the
eyes from the glare OF the sun is a
very old custom. The natives of the
far northern regions long ago invented
speCtaCles of wood with very narrow
slit in the center TO diminish as far as
possible the continual glare Of the long
arctic day 1t is said that the Emperor
Nero, who was an albino and whose
eyes were therefore very sensitive to
light, used amethysts or emeralds to
shield his eyes

An admirable thrift prevails at
certain Sunday school in Derbyshire,
and this is effectually demonstrated at
the annual tea party. The needless
expense OF printing new tickets for
this festivity is avoided, says the Man
chester Guardian, by the simple cx-
pedicnt Of using the same year after
year. Those at present employed bear
the inscription:
Queen Victoria: Diamond jubilee
Admit one to tea.
Probably the majority of the young
revelers had not been born when the
tickets were printed

Symbolism In Japan.

When child is born in Japan the
parents put up outside the house the
sign of a fish or a doll, according as it
a boy or girl. The fish represents
a being who has to swim against the
stream and make his way in the
world, The doll stands for one who Is
there to be petted and made much OF.

have been more than repaid for.

tail.
''On Monday as 1 traced my.

the grain that will bring hope
and life to these afflicted people.
They constantly express their
mndying gratitude for American
help and sympathy. Without.
America they feel they would,
be crushed out of eNistance by,

Among those who are work,

the following:

London, Nov. 6.-:Mlllard K.
Sha.er, the American who visited
Brussels on behalf Of the
American commission for the re-
lief Of Belgium, has returned to
London. He states that condi-
tions in Belgium are even worse
than have been described.
"As we neared the Belgian
frontier we saw the pitiful
flight Of refugees in Holland.
Once in Belgium we came across
stream OF poor people pouring
back into Antwerp in every con-
ceivable kind of conveyance and
on foot. They carried their
babies and belongings.
Between Antwerp and Ma
lines the destruction of habita-
tions in every town and hamlet
was practically universal. Fami-
lies were living in partly burned
buildings or in improvdsed struc-
lures. The suffering is intense
and GOOD supplies practically,
do not exist.
"The news l brought to the.
central committee in Brussels
that, 10000 pounds of cereals
purchased by the American com
mittec for the immediate relief
Of the situation in Belgium,
was enroute from England to
Rotterdam spread quickly among
the people of Brussels and in
the neighboring districts.
GAS more than 30 per cent Of
the Brussels population now live
entirely on soup and bread which
is distributed to them daily, and
on potatoes which they receive
only once week, the fear that
the bread supply would cease
doomed large.
"On Friday and Saturday last
many of the well-to-do people in
Brussels had no bread. i could
not buy any myself at any price,
but fortunately the poor got
their meager supply through the
soup kitchen.
"On Saturday two delegations
from Captain Lucey, the com
mission IS Rotterdam correspond
ent, arrived in Brussels with
the information that the first.
food ship had arrived in Rotter2
dam and that supplies had been
loaded into small steamers and
lighters and were to leave by
canal by way of Antwerp for

The chatauqua bureau fur
nishes the talent for the program,
two sessions day for the six

gram during the week as many,
as forty-five people. The bureau
also furnishes the large audi
torium tent, the platform man
ager, the supervisor Of the child,
rens chautauqua, the tent crew,
the general and local advertising,
and in fact everything necessary
for the carrying out of the
weeks program.

town and other of the Larger
cities of the state. The talent
consists Of high class lecturers,

every direction from town.
Later the chautauqua will be
thoroughly advertised so that
all may have definite informa-
ton concerning it. The planning
to have chautauqua at Wash,
burn puts this town in the list
of more than 5000 others that
had chautauqua last year and
will have again in 1915.
