Two wise men going on their way

"Tour eyes must fix upon a star,"
The first adviser said,
"And hold It. though It be afar
And always overhead.
And If your gaze shall never quit
That goal, my friend, you'll come to It"
"A fool advises you, my friend,"
The second wise man said.
"Nor fame nor fortune will attend
Who only look ahead.
But look back now and then and see
How great a fool you used to be."

Before and After.
Some yeurs ago a young curate, seek
ing to be licensed, was bidden by Or
Temple, archbishop of Canterbury, to
read a few verses of the Bible In order
that his fitness for conducting public
worship might be judged.
"Not loud enough," was the criticism
of the bishop when the young man
bad finished.
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, my
lord," replied the curate. "A lady iu
the church jesteiday told me 1 could
be heard most plainly all over."
"Ah! You are engaged?" suddenly
asked Dr. Temple.
"Yes, my lord."
The bishop smiled grimly and said:
"Now, listen to me, young man. While
you are engaged don't beliee every
thing the lady tells you, but" he add
ed, with a deep chuckle, "after you
are married believe every word fahe
says."

but since my separation from you I
feel that I love you u thousandfold
more. Each day since I knew you have
I adored you yet more and more. Ah!
I entreat you to let me see some of
your faults; be less beautiful, less gra
cious, less affectionate, less good, espe
cially be not overanxious, and never
weep. Your tears rob me of reason
and Inflame my blood. Believe me that
it Is not In my power to have a single
thought that is not of you or a wish
that 1 cannot reveal to you. Quickly
re-establish your health and join me.

able to say, "We were many days

Th Text It Advertising, and th Talk
Is on How to Catch and Hold Horn
Trade and Build Up th Business
and th Burg Together.
Mark Twain Is an Inveterate Joker,
as most people have discovered, but
very often there Is a distinct moral to
ono of his Jokes which does not re
quire to be labeled; It can be seen
with tho naked eye. Many years ago
tho now famous humorist was editor
of the Enterprise, a newspaper pub
lished at Virginia City, Nev. One day
he received a letter from a subscriber
who appeared to be a bit superstitious.
The subscriber explained that he had
found In his copy of the Enterprise
that week a live spider, and ho wanted
to know whether that meant good luck
or bad luck. Editor Mark, who was
plain Sam Clemens at that period, sat
himself down and wrote a brief reply
In his "Answers to Correspondents"
column. "That spider," ho said, "was
merely looking over the columns of tho
Enterprise to find out what merchant
doesn't advertise In his homo paper.
Tho spider wants to go and spin Its
web across tho door of that man's
place of business, so that it may have
n long life of undisturbed serenity."
This Is tho ago of advertising. If
you doubt it, Just take note oC tho fact
that up to a few months ago the circu
lation of the leading mall order month
lies of the United States aggregated
25.000,000 copies. Why? Tho "litera
ture" contained in most of such publi
cations Is not of high claBS, and there
Is no such enormous demand for that
class of Journals merely for reading
purposes. Their circulation had been
pushed by various methods, in many
cases the papers being practically giv
en nway to carry tho advertising of
big city establishments and smaller
catchpenny schemes to the town and
country districts. These papers with
their enormous circulation were sup
ported by advertising. The advertis
ing even paid for tho white papor and
the expense of mailing. Advertisers
paid a stiff rate because they were
satisfied of the wide clrculotloa of tha
sheets. They knew a good thing whea
they saw It, and they were willing to
nay for it
It Is estimated that slnco tho recent
ruling of the postofflco department re
gaidlng subscription lists and sample '
copies no less than 18.000,000 of this
enormous circulation has been cut off
compulsorlly. Many of the Journals
with tho biggest circulation have sus
pended altogether.
The local merchant may congratulate
himself upon this fact but there aw
many reasons why he should not sit
down placidly and expect to get back
such patronage as the mall order peo
ple have taken nway from him. The ,
biggest concerns In the cities, which
thrlvo on trade from country districts,
by mall orders, print gigantic cata
logues and distribute them with a gen
erous hand. These catalogues carry
price lists and pictures and descrip
tions of goodB which could not be
printed in mall order journals because
of the high cost of space and the lack
of enough space to accommodate th
printed matter. Tho catalogues aro In
nowise affected by the postal rulings.
Now that the mall order advertising
avenues nre fewer than they were thfl
catalogue bouses aro sure to lncreaso
their output of catalogues. They will
buy up the names and addresses of the
defunct subscription and sample copy
lists and flood the country with cata
logues. As remarked, this is an advertising
age. The home merchant if he holds ,
his trade or hopes to increase It, muat
be awake and active. Unless be takes
measures to keep his business and bis
bargains before the eyes of the peo
ple dwelling In his trade radius be
'cannot expect prosperity. Tho horns
newspaper Is the one medium for dis
seminating publicity to the people.
Men, women and children In town and
country have acquired the habit of
reading advertising matter to find
what they want. If they do not dis
cover In tho home newspaper anv
hints as to bargains which may br
seen In town with the naked eye, they
nre Inclined Jo take their chances on
purchasing by mall from the cata
logue hints. I i ni
It may be taken for granted that
most people prefer to spend their mon
ey In the homo town If they can get
what they want at reasonable rates.
They are always on the lookout for
bargains. The catalogue people are
very well aware of this fact and they
act accordingly. To combat mall trade
the local merchant must realise this
fact and get in line with the spirit of
tho age, which means that he must advertise.
