EARLY ADVERTISING.
Before and After tho Advent of the
Printing Press.

Before and After the Advent of the
Printing Press.
Advertising has now become a Gus.
tom so extensive In its application and
OF such vital Importance that 1t is
difficult to realize that it was ever
possible to do any trading without it.
Yet before the advent OF the printing
press and the newspaper there were
many hundreds Of years when there
was no such thing as advertising as
1t is known today.
In ancient times merchants in Rome
and Athens employed cricrs to go about
the streets shouting out the quality and
prices of their goods. Written notices
serving as advertisements To call at.
tention to an auction sale or meeting
were displayed on walls only occasion.
ally. In the old days Of London shop-
keepers clerks stood in front Of their
stores and called out their wares to
passersby. prcfacinG their announce.
ments with what do you lack? What
do you lack?"
One of the first newspaper adver-
tisements OF which there is authentic
record was printed in the Mercurius
Po!iticus, London. In January, 1862
1t was publishers announcement and
read as follows:
"Irenodia Gratulatoria. an Heroick
Poem. being a conCratulatory pane
gyrick for my Lord Generals late re.
turn. summing up his successes in an
exquisite manner. To be sold by John
Holden. in the New Exchange, Lon.
don. Printed by Tho. Newcourt, 1852" +"
Here IS another example of early
London advertising:
1.-TWO men beg to acqunint the public
In general that they keep the cleanest
barber shop in all London. where the
people can have their hair cut for
two pence. dressed for three pence and
be shaved for one penny. One Of these
men can bleed and draw teeth very
we'll. He bleeds both in the English
and German method and is exceedingly
careful."-.New York Sun.

CIGARS TO COST
MORE AT RETAIL
European War Makes Acute Situation
for Manufacturer to Meet-GOOd
Havana Leaf is Scarce.

For the first time in the history of
this country, with the possible excep-
tion of the civil war period, retail
pricees of cigars are going up.
That cigar smokers have enioyed a
half century of respite from price fiuc-
tuation is not because the cost of pro-
duction has remained stationary dur
ing sll these years. Operating ex-
penses and the prices of raw materials
have gone up and down, mostly up,
in the cigar business. the same as in
any other business. But there are two
things which have tended to keep the
retail prices of cigars uniform; first,
because of the fixed habit of paying a
nickel, siX-fora-quarter, three-for-a-
quarter, ten cents straight and so on
up, for cigars. without any intermedi-
ate plices; and, in second. because to-
bacco is generally classified as a lux
urY and not a necessity.
These two circumstances have made
both manufacturers and cigar store
keepers loath to disturb the eouanim-
tv of the smoker during all these
years, even though there have been
many occasions when the cigar manu-
featuring trade generally has found
its yearly balance to be on the wrong
side of the ledger
AS far back as ten years ago the
profit in cigar manufacturing had been
reduced to such an extent that onlv
the most sagacious operators found
the business profitable. These condi-
tions continued progressively. and
when the European war began. two
and one-half years ago, the situation
became even more acute
1t is true that the great war has not
materially increased the expectation
of either Cuban or American leaf to-
bacco to Europe, but it has advanced
the cost of virtually every element en-
tering into cigar manufacturing.
Increased activity in other indus
tries has made labor in the tobacco
growing districts scarce, and the price
OF labor unprecedentedly high. The
| wooden cases in which domestic to-
bacco is packed. the cheesecloth under
which shadegrown tobacco is grown.
fertilizers necessary to the soil. implc
ments used in cultivation, etc. all
have advanced. And in Cuba the great
boon in sugar has diverted arricnI-
turists to that industry and created a
shortage of good Havana leaf.
The result is that all kinds of leaf
tobacco used for cigar purposes in
this country have gone skyward.
Cigar manufacturers. therefore. are
0aving more for leaf tobacco than ever
IN the history of the industry. and
IN addition to this, the price of cigar
boxes, labels, workmanship and all
other details of operating have in
creased tremendously.
The upshot of it is that, while even
before the war began large proper
ton OF manufacturers were, al the
best just about breaking even on thci,.
investment, now they find themselves
actually and almost without exception
playing losing game.

BLAMED THE DEMONS.
Story Of the Physical Reformation Of .
City In Korea.

Story Of the Physical Refornna alton Of {.
City In Korea.
In Pyengyang. n city in Korea, sur.
rounded by river and resembling a
boat in shape. 1t was believed that II
any one should venture to dig a well
the water would rush in. sinking the
boat and drowning all the city's in
habitants.
Needless to say. no wells were dug
The streams washed the filth of the
city down into the river Then the
watermen filed their buckets at the
river and sold drinking water"
throughout the city.
Constantly recurring epidemics were
the result But the people did not
blame the dirt. They blamed the devils
1t was the duty Of every Korean
doctor to know the 300 places where
the human body could be pierced with
red hot needle without causing death
The needles were from three to tweiss
inches in length, and the doctor was
supposed to know how deep they should
be thrust The purpose Of the probing
was to let out the devils which caused
the ulSeaSe.
When Christianity came to Korea it
brought hygiene and medicine along
with 1t. A hospital or dispensary was
not known in Korea until founded by
a Christian missionary.
The Japanese government is now
splendidly following suit with the es-
tablishment of hospitals and medical
schools
Fine waterworks systems have been
installed. and the sort Of water that
gushes from the hydrants in Pyeng.

death rate by 70 per cent

now underlaid with network of
