Tbe first newspaper advertisement appeared in Great Birtain in 1642. In Greece advertising was done by pub lic criers. The first printed advertise ment in England was got up by the celebrated printer Caxton. It an nounced the completion of a book called "the Pyer of Salisbury." The ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans were the first to use bill posters, some of which were found on the walls of buildings in Pompeii. It was not untill the eighteenth cen tury that the magazine and newspaper advertiseing became the recognized medium between manufacturer and buyer. IN NATURE'S Buried deep in our American forests, manv vears uo, Dr. Pierce found a beaui' ful, blooming plant the root of which possesses wonderfully efficacious properties as a stomach and general tonic, also as an alterative or blood purifier and liver invigorator, having an especial aifiniry for all mucous surfaces upon whk-ii it exerts a most salutary, 60othing and hoaling influence. This stardv littie plant is known to botanists as "Hydrastis Canadensis, but has several local English names, being fenerally known as Golden Seal. Dr. ierce found the root of this common forest plant to possess medicinal prin ciples of great potency, especially when combined, in just the right proportions, with Queen's root. Black Cherry bark, Stone root, Man drake root and Blood root, the properties of each being ex tracted and preserved in chemically pure glycerine of proper strength. This compound Dr. Pierce named his "Golden Medical Discovery," in honor of the sturdy little Golden Seal plant. So little used was the root of this plant bv the medical profession at that time, that it could be purchased in the open markets for from fii'ieen cents, to twenty cents a pound. The use of many tons of this root every year in Dr. Pierce's two leading medi cines for it enters into both "Golden Medical Discovery" and also into Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription as one of their most important ingredients has caused the price of the root to advance nntil to-day it commands upwards of a dollar and a half a pound. DR. pieece's faith. Dr. Pierce believes that in our native forests are to be found an abundance of most valuable medicinal plants for the cure of many distressing and most fataf maladies, if we would only seek them out, test them and learn how and for what diseases to use them. Furthermore, he believes that the veg etable kingdom is the one to resort to for the most harmless remedial agents. They act most kindly upon the hu man system and are eliminated or car ried out of the body by the natural functions without injury, even in cases where it is necessary to make protracted use of them in order to experience per manent cures. Dr. Pierce's medicines being purely vegetable, are perfectly harmless. In other words, while they are potent to cure, being purely vege table in composition and containing no alcohol, they leave no bad effects be- without fear of sucessful criticism and hind. This is not generally true when j with confidence that the good se::se of mineral medicines and those containing ! the afflicted will lead them to appreciate large percentages of alcohol are taken : this honorable manner of confiding to into the system and their use protracted j them what they are taking into their over considerable periods of time. ) stomachs when making use of tiiese Many years ago, Dr. Pierce discov- j medicines, ered that chemically pure glycerine, of A litte book of extracts from mpi'v proper strength, is a better solvent and ; standard medical works of a!! the u.f preservative of the medicinal principles ferent schods of practice, indorsing, in residing in our indigenous, or native, ; the strongest terms, all the several in medicinal plants than is alcohol; and, 1 gredients entering into Dr. Pierce s futhermore, that it possesses intrinsic medicines and telling -wl.at dV;:res medicinal properties of its own, being these most valuable medicinal .ilvh" demulcent, nutritive, antiseptic and a will cure, will be mailed ." 1. vy inost efficient anti-ferment. ! address bv Di K.

Signature of GOLD. The first mention which we have of gold is in the eleventh verse of the second chapter of Genesis, or in oth er words four thousand and four years before Christ. Gold was used as money by the an cient Egyptians at a very early date. Herodotus tells that the invention of the coinage of gold belongs to Lydia, about 750 B. C. Authorities conflict about the first coinage of gold. Some say it was Miletus, and some the Per sians, but there are no records to show just when.

They are neither patent medicines nor secret ones either, for every bottle of Dr. Pierce's world - famed medicines leaving the great laboratory at Buffalo, 2S. Y., has printed upon its wrapper all the ingredients entering into its composition. This is why so many unprejudiced physieians now prescribe them and recommend them to their patients when they would not think of advising the "use of a secret nostrum. They know what they are composed of, ami that the ingredients are those en dorsed by the most eminent medical authorities of all schools of practice. ALL EIGHTS PROTECTED. The exact working formula for mak ing Dr. 1'ierce's medicines without the use of a drop of alcohol and preserving them unimpaired in any climate for any length of time, cost Dr. Pierce and his assistant-chemists and pharmacists a tedious course of study and experi ments, extending over several vears, w ltli the use ot chemically pure giycer- ine, of just the right strangth, and with laboratory apparatus and appliances specially invented and designed to carry on the delicate processes employed, Dr. Pierce finally found that all the medici nal principles residing in the several native medicinal roots could be more perfectly extracted and better preserved from fermentation than if alcohol was employed. Besides the glycerine, of itself, pos sesses the property of greatly enhancing the efficacy of the several mediciilal agents employed, whereas alcohol is well known to be objectionable in any medicine to be employed in" chronic or lingering diseases, where, at best, treat ment must be continued over a consid erable period of time in order to make the cure complete and permanent. The exact proportion of the several ingredients used in these medicines aa well as the working formula and peculiar process, apparatus and appliances employed in their manufacture, are withheld from pi blicity that Dr. Pierce's proprietary rights may not be infringed and trespassed upon by unprincipled imitators and those who" may be pirati cally inclined.

Toward the upper end of the ghats is the burning ground. There are no steps here, but a slope of beaten dirt Stop half an hour and you may se every step of the cremation rites. Sit ting on stone ramparts above, to the right and left, are friends and relatives of the dead ones. The figure to the right, huddled up in a bright green wrap, is of the lowest caste of Hindoo and keeps the mat shed near by, where the sacred fire for igniting every corpse is for sale. You hear hoarse, loud cries of "Ram! Ramanal" and, behold, a burial procession is coming down the slope. Four men carry the corpse slung between two bamboo poles and cry to the god Ram. He is the personi fication of filial love, and thus it is meet that they should call him to wit ness. They swing down to the river and immerse the corpse. It Is wrap ped in a white shroud stained with red blotches. Then they lift the head slightly out of the water and remove the hroud from the face, 6plashlng water five times upon the mouth. Others In the meantime are building a wooden pyre, made of fagots sold near by and when finished standing three feet or more above ground. The corpse, its dark color showing through the dripping shroud, is then placed on the wooden altar and covered with fagots. This done, all but two mount the ramparts and watch the final cere mony. Of the two remaining, one pours oil upon the wood from a small clay dish, while the other goes to the fire house above. He soon returns with a long straw wisp, blazing at one end. He advances to the corpse's head. touches it with the wisp.and then cir cles the pyre five times, touching the head each time until the fifth, when he places tie blazing wisp beneath the feet, and the whole pile bursts into flame. When all is consumed the ashes are raked into the river and float away to bliss eternal. F. J. O. Alsop in Out- ln- THE UNDER MARRIAGE. Wedding; Cnntomi and Frolics That Prevail In Holland In Holland two weeks before a mar riage takes place cards are sent out de claring that the banns have been pub lished. This is called an "under mar riage." The card also announces when the final marriage is to take place. The wedding itself is a small affair, and the civil marriage is the only one rec-. ognized by law. A church wedding is usually looked upon as a concession to either fashion or sentimentality and is 1 called a "consecration of the marriage.1 The couple enter the church behind the family members, bridesmaids and oth er attendants. They are shown to seats before the whole assembly, and the clergyman conies in with two witness es long after the others have been seat ed. He first makes a prayer, then de livers a sermon on a suitable text, which usually brings the bride to tears. After that the couple are married. Then a hymn is sung and the blessing given. The whole occupies about an hour and a quarter. Before leaving the church a huge Bible is presented to the bride groom. During the two weeks of wait ing between the "under marriage" and the real marriage all the wedding fes tivities take place. The happy couple are literally surfeited with dinners, balls and theater parties, and all man ner of practical jokes are played on the pair. At the dinner toasts innumerable are given, and at each the whole com pany rises from the table to sound and touch glasses with the bride and groom, who never rise. Among their friends the Idea is not to allow the couple a j night of sleep, if possible, before the ! wedding day, Canny John Sherman. The late Secretary John Sherman showed his talent for financiering at an early age. II and two of his brothers had been given a sum of money with which to pay their board while on a shooting trip for a week at the house of a farmer near Lancaster, O., their home. The week ended, John ordered the wagon and paid his board. But the farmer refused the money, saying that the sons of Judge Sherman would al ways be welcome guests. Vhen John found that he did not have to pay his board he sent the wagon back to the barn and stayed another week.--XJp-plncott's. Scholarly Version. On the campus of Emory college, in Oxford, Ga., there is a table to the memory of Ignatius Few, the first president. One day a freshman was crossing the campus with his cousin, who asked him to explain the inscrip tion on the stone. " 'Vivit non inortnus est,' " she read slowly. "What does that mean. "Will?" v "That," said the freshman easily, "oh, that means, 'He lives no, he don't, he's dead.' " An Odd Epitaph. The following epitaph is to be read on a tombstone at Saragossa, Spain: "Here lies John Quebecca, precentor to my lord the king. When he is admit ted to the choir of angels, whose so ciety he will embellish and where he will distinguish himself by his powers of song, God shall say to his angels, "Cease, ye calves, and let Me hear John Quebecca, the precentor to my lord the king.'? She Made Good. "I don't see what sense there is in you women dressing so expensively." ''That's just the way ' papa used to talk." "Talks that way yet, doesn't he?" "No. indeed. When I caught you he admitted, that there was method in my madness." Houston Post. rise Way Money- Is Wasted. Tbrongk Isrnornnce of Food Values. Examples of glaring Ignorance of food values may well be culled from the notes of those experts who have visited the poor of the different cities. In the slums-of Chicago It was found that a woman whose husband was out of -work and whose family was living on a few cents a day bought lettuce, a food so innutritious that, at least when out of season and high in price, it is a luxury even for the rich. This woman sacrificed the inexpensive but nutri- tious classes of foods for leaves con taining over 80 per cent of water and 15 per cent of refuse. . - It has been truthfully said that a man would starve to death on a diet of lettuce alone. Pitiable improvidence was found In the New York slums. A watchman was feeding his family at the rate of 14 cents per person a day all that he could afford yet his wife bought ex pensive cuts of beef instead of the equally nutritious cuts of lower price; also large quantities of butter whose value might have been Invested in dried beans and more bread. She also wasted money on soda crackers and Jumbles costing two or three times as much as bread and containing no more nutrition. It was estimated that his wife might have obtained about eight times as much nutrition for her mon ey had she substituted dried peas for green peas. Another large saving would have been the substitution of fresh for condensed milk. John E. Watkins in Reader Magazine. THEY WERE GLUTTONS. The Gormanda of the Eigrliteeiith Century In England. Plenty was the watchword of the eighteenth century gormand In Eng land. His tables groaned under an ar- I rav of food warranted to take nwnv appetite of all save the Garean- I tnas of the day. One blessiner was evolved from the old sops and the later bisques and olios soup, which now was ever the prelude to the dinner. It i wa3 removed for meat or fish a chine of mutton and three ducks in the.,case jf Squire Hill at Teddington, who, for entrees to support them, offered pul lets with eggs, fillet of beef and scol lops, turkey en daube, stewed carp, veal a la royale, fricasseed chicken, with ham and pigeons for center dish. This was but the first course or relay. Next came the roasts two pheasants and four partridges and six teal, and now, for side dishes, sweetbreads and marlw, four woodcock and ten snipe, salmon and smelts, marrow pudding, fone quarter of lamb and oyster loaves. For center dish, mince pies. And men ate and survived, and still had heart within them to wait the removal of the cloth, and, greeting the dessert, sat over the mahogany until indeed they fell beneath it. After all, gormand la not the name for such as these. They were gluttons. A DOG IS ALWAYS HONEST. He Can't Growl and Was- Ills Tail al the Same Time. "There is one peculiar thing about dogs," remarked a . well known local fancier and huntsman, and that is you never saw one pant and wag his tail at the same time. A dog is not capa ble of a double emotion. He can't growl and wag his tail at the same time, for it is impossible for him to be mad at one end and glad at the other. "If a dog is glad to see his master he will bark and wag his tail. If he wants to get into the house he will paw at the door, whine and wag 'his tall, but they are all symptoms of one and the same emotion. But if his mas ter opens the door he will cease to show anxiety immediately by whining and will show pleasure only by the wagging of his tail. "In order to get a man's temper one must watch his eyes, but for. a dog's you have to watch his tail. The dog Is likewise Incapable of deceit, and hence he is nothing of a politician. He de ceives no one, not even his master. If he is overjoyed every emotion Is in dicative of that fact, and his whole makeup gives ample testimony to It. If he is displeased or angered it Is the same way." Houston Post. A Double Presentation. John Kendrick Bangs once ran across a gift copy of one of his books in a secondhand bookshop, still having this inscription on the fly leaf: "To his friend, J. G., with the regards and the esteem of J. K. Bangs, July, 1899." Mr. Bangs bought the copy and sent it to his friend again with a second in scription beneath, "This book, bought In a secondhand bookshop, is re-presented to .1. G. with renewed and re iterated regards and esteem by J. K. Bangs, December, 1899." The Snme Thing. "What makes you think you have great business ability?" laughed the successful business man. "Why, you've ! never made a dollar!" "But you forget, dear," replied his energetic wife, "that I made you!" Detroit Free Press. Playing; Indian. Mamma Playing Indian is so rough. Why are you crying?

She seldom says a word. I can't understand why so many men propose to her." "I can," sighed Henpeck. Houston Post. Some Facts Concerning: It That Are Tiot Generally Known. Though every schoolboy presumably knows to a nicety where the Cape of Good Hope is situated, there does un doubtedly prevail in less enlightened circles some vagueness of conception as to the exact locality of that cele brated headland. Even the gentle reader Is faintly conscious of uncer tainty and answers with a briskness not born of conviction: "The Cape of Good Hope? "Why, of course I know where It is. Down at the end of South Africa." Gentle reader, you are not rery far out, fifty or a hundred miles perhaps. And, as you say, it is not of the slightest consequence from a prac tical point of view. The Cape of Good Hope lies at a con siderable distance from the end and is. In fact, the middle of the three promon tories, severally Inconspicuous, which jointly terminate a slender peninsula, some twenty miles In length, forming the barrier between False bay and the Atlantic ocean on the west. These three headlands, lying near together and commonly undivided on a map of mod erate scale, are locally designated Cape Point. It was here that Bartholo. mew Diaz first encountered in full force the prevalent southeasterly gales and denounced the rugged, threaten ing, threefold promontory under the sounding appellation of the Cape of Storms, to be afterward rechristened lby pious, trustful hearts the. Cape of Good Hope. The Cape of Storms, the Cape of Good Hope, Cape Farewell! Is there nothing in a name? TOBACCO HEART. The Way Smoklnn- Acts I'pon and In- Jnres the. System. Are you "learning to smoke," boys? Learning by heart-tobacco heart?" Read what a doctor says in the Med ical Summary and then enjoy your smoke if you can: In smoking tobacco we take in car bonic oxide, several ammonias and a very poisonous oil containing nicotine. The ammonias and nicotine are the substances which by acting in numer ous directions are so injurious to the system. The ammonias act on the blood, making it alkaline and fluid, thereby impairing Its nutritive prop erty. The stomach is debilitated and dys pepsia induced. The Innervation of the heart is disturbed its action is weak, irregular and intermittent, and faintness and vertigo are the conse quences. Owing to the disturbances in the blood and heart the process of nutri tion is slow-, and in tlssyoung serious ly affected tissue Is paralyzed and vi sion is impaired. Tobacco is essentially a functional rather than ot,st!t!'? prt5cnr. It mod ifies the special energies and not the structure. Tobacco is eliminated by the kidneys and very rapidly; conse quently the bad effects quickly disap pear under proper treatment if, how ever, the habit is given up. Japanese Politeness. A Kussian - soldier left behind his brothers in arms. He slowly rose up and faced his captors. They smiled amiabl3-, and, reassured, he pulled oft his cap and commenced to fan himself with it. Now, it is a common custom for a Japanese soldier to carry about with him in the hot weather a small fan. On this occasion a fan was forth- coming and handed to the Kussian, but he refused to take it, preferring to use his cap. Still, with an amiable smile on his face, one of the Japanese again proffered him the rejected fan, at the same time covering him with a re volver. The captive took the gift with out further reluctance. From Brindle's "With Russians and Japanese." The Larkapar. Great vigilance has to be exercised by the antiquarian painter. This was demonstrated by Sir Laurence Alma Tadema's picture "The . Finding of Moses." Looking at the picture, a well known botanist examined with admira tion the painting of the lifelike lark spurs which form the foreground, and then, turning toward the artist and congratulating him on the successful rendering, pointed out that larkspurs were of a comparatively recent growth. The painter laughed as he replied, "So I thought, until dried specimens of them were discovered in some of the recently explored royal tomba of Egypt" Fishy.
