If they send W a moiieh for an adver tisement they tell more teople about what they are doing for the paer car rying their ad than doea the dealer who sends 30 a month and more in one laper alone. In fact, the latter seldom talks alsuit his good deed, for he spend the money to reach the reader' heart, and to obtain additional customers, while holding his regular trade. He, too, is doing something for the jaH'r he patroniies, but only because he is do ing something for himself. With him, it is a cold business proposition. Can the paper he advertise in bring him re sults or not! It ought to be gratifying to any pub lisher to have an advertiser speak well of his paper, but it ia even more satis- lactory, when the dealer says; "My ad in your paper pays." The adman ha reason to think that advertising in The Morning Aslorian pays, aud a long as that is the case the publication must necessarily continue in it winning force, no matter how many competitor are in the field. When an extensive advertiser is willing to say to certain outsiders of his advertisement appearing in two papers, the one in The Morning Astorian pays best, it is positive evidence that it would pay others, if the space is used right. Such an assertion wa made by a leading advertiser, the adman being in formed by a third party who cannot be accused of being partial to this paper. Another evidence of the satisfactory service given by this paper may safely lie found in the fact that another ad vertiser, using space in two publications. showed the adman the return -from spe cial advertising done in the two publi cations. The returns came in the shape of requests for a certain free feature, particularly acceptable to those who like to solve mysteries. The inquiries were carefully jotted down, and for a certain nimilier of day gave a total of 23 re tpiest from readers of The Morning As torian against 13 from the reader of the other paper. Other evidence might lie cited here, if the average reader and advertiser of this paper were not in a position to prove these claims for themselves, fiood coiiv is, 01 course, necessary in every in stance.

Publicity vs. Notoriety. There are great many advertising scheme which may lie ued with success and profit, and there are an ual mini Imt which are worthies and even harm ful in their result.

Mrs. Dodge's father was a well-know n scholar, chemist, inventor and author, and Mary legan writing poems and short stories when she was but eight years old. Her first venture, a collection of tale en titled "The Irvington Stories," was a success, and Mrs. Dodge once said: "I am sorry to confess that my literary career has been without a struggle; per haps it has been too easy." It was, how ever, as associate editor with Harriet Beecher Stowe of "Hearth and Home," from 1870 to 1873, and since then as editor-in-chief of "St. Nicholas," that Mrs. Dodge wrought her most useful and beneficent work, and won the hearts and gratitude of the boy and girls of America and England. Ripe in years, though by no means old, she passes away in the universal esteem and abid ing affection of both young and old America.

There is much reason for onngratulnt ing the lN-al business men upon their enterprie in promoting this year' re- gatta, as well as for the effort made in decorating their store fronts and win dows for the occasion. The many strung ers visiting here will be agreeably ur prised to find even the smallest dealer among those who have done something for their country. Most notable among the decorations is, of course, the effort made by Will Madison and Otto Mikkle son, who are expending about fcMO on their decorations and illuminations. Peterson & Brown, as usual, are most effectively in the race, while Foard 4 Stokes have thrown all their weight on making their dres good window at tractive.
