THE FAIR STORE J. A. WRIGHT, Prop. \ The first newspaper was produced when written accounts of the lrnpe rial armies of Rome were sent to the generals commanding In all parts of the provinces. In 1566 the first official news sheets were published tn Venice. They were written by hand and ex hibited In public places. People paid the small coin of a gazzetta to read them. Hence the name. The church opposed tho enterprise, and Pope Gregory even prosecuted the editors. The oldest form of newspaper In Ringland was In the beginning of the reign of Jamee II—the so-called News-Letters, written by band, and sent by post to subscribers in the country. In 1700 the first dally pa per, the Dally Oourant, was Issued. The oldest of the London dally papers, the Morning Post, la the old est of existing morning papers. Founded In 1772, It was followed about 1788 by tbe flrat dally evening paper, the Star. The Times first appeared In 1788 as a continuation of the Dally Uni versal Register. Its originator and owner, Mr. John Walter, succeeded In 1814 In printing the Times by steam. In 1845 the Dally News was founded, with tbe help of Charles Dickens. It was the first paper to lower Its price from six pence to three pence (twelve to six ;centa). Cleo Moreloek, Mrs. R.

Nerves of Invalids Soothed by Pictures Art is being used successfully in the treatment of nervous diseases In a Philadelphia hospital. Pic tures In proper color, when exhib ited to patients, have a soothing ef fect, It has been found. Reds and other “hot colors” are not used, since they disturb the nervous sys tem. In some of the more turbu lent cnses It has been necessary to hang the paintings out of reach of the patients. The basic Idea is that of the emo tion being affected by color, so great care Is exercised tn selecting the right pictures. "The colors we find most advan tageous," said a hospital at tache. “are the cool ones. These bring a calming Influence. For this reason landscapes, seascapes and mountain scenes are prefer able. The wave-wash on a New England coast, a sunny pastoral scene, puffy white clouds astride mountain peaks, all reveal peace, stillness, rest." 8 p. m.
