Advertising in Antiquity.
In excavating the buried city of Hercu-
Q.incuni, it ba* been discovered that the
Roman* used posters for advertising. A
I>iliar was un« arthed which v.as covered
with bills, out on top of another. The
j. iste used to stick them was made of
gum ar be. J'.'i. bills, when separate 1 and
examim i. were found to b- prog' u nis and
announcements of public luectipgs, and
even election proclamations.
Po.'ier advertising is thus proved to be
a “back number.”
tn the-e .r is of progress, such an adver
tising method is too slow. It was al.
light .for tin •Remans, for it was the best
tin y had. I*l in'.ing had no been invented.
rhe modern newspaper covers entire
cities ami states, while the bill poster is
clicking up his old style announcements.
1;.-r, in M.eon The News covers the city
and m vby tcwn.i far more thoroughly
than any number of posters could. It
goes into i.he homes of the people, and
reaches tile people who buy. Only street
loungers stop to read posters. People of
affairs are too busy when on the streets.
They read The News at leisure in their
'homes, ad its advertisement rereive due
'attention.
Bryan has given $250 to the University
of Georgia, the interest on which is to Ibe
used to buy a medal to be given annually
for the best essay on the science of gov
ernment.
Dark Outlook for Cotton.
The press of the South is devoting much
atention to the war situation as it will
probably effect Southern planters, and the
unanimous verdict is that food crops will
prove tile most remunerative.
But, notwithstanding all that has been
raid, reports from vprtous sections indi
cate. that t.he farmers are preparing to put
their lands again in cultivation, evidently
with no apprehension of the effect of war,
since, from what can be learned, there
will be no decrease oif cotton acreage as
compared witli last year.
Noticing this disposition on the part of
(planters in the Memphis district, the
Memphis Scimitar in a sensible editorial
on the subject, says 'they seem determin
ed to again aid in raising another 11,000,000
•bale crop, and if successful, values will
seek a still lower level, and four cent cot
hin will probably result.
Jitot why this policy should he pursued
is beyond the ken of’nian, says the Scim
itar, hut it is probable that farmers in
this section think their brethren of other
states will reduce their acreage, and so
thinking, will cultivate the same area as
last year.
But reports from every other section of
the South are to the same effect regard
ing cotton acreage, and when the figures
are presented later in the season it will be
seen that there has been no dedrease in
acreage as compared with 1897-’9B, and
another year of depressed value will nec
essarily follow.
In 1894-95 when the yield of cotton ap
proximated 10,000.000 bales, the effect on
prices was felt for the next twelve months,
tand with this experience, what can be an
ticipated with a crop of 11,000,000 bale*
•that has just been marketed and acreage
planted which, with favorable seasons,
will produce a still larger yield?
The farmers of the South would do well
'to remember that any trouble either 'at
home or among other nations would have
a depressing effect on cotton values, and
with signs of war overshadowing the
■United Stales, and mutterings bf trouble
<ln the far East regarding China, and also
in Africa, it would seem ‘the part of wis
dom to greatly reduce the production of
the staple mstead of attempting to raise
another bumper crop.
The Rome Tribune repeats with empha
sis. the statement that Judge Atkinson
has the support of one Macon paper. Yes
terday’s Tribune says: “As for the daily
press its strength and influence is un
doubtedly against Candler. All th? d.rly
papers of Columbus. Brunswick, Savannah
and Waycross are against Candler. At
least one influential dally newspaper in
Atlanta. Augusta, Macon, Griffin and
Rome, is against Candler."
Supplies in Treasury.
The monthly cireulatiqn statement is
sued by the Comptroller of the Currency
shows that at the close of business Mon
day. March 7th. the amount of national
bank notes outstanding was $224,747,032, a
decrease for February of $1,697,874. The
amount off circulation based on United
States bonds was $1,667,481. The circula
tion secured by lawful money amounted to
$33,690,214. The amount of United States
registered bonds on deposit to secure cir
culating notes was $213,414,650, and to se
cure public deposits, $30,879,500.
The comparative statement of the gov
ernment receipts and expenditures, shows
that the ♦ :al receipts during February
femounfed to $28,572,358. and the expendi
tureeß t-6.599.2.%, leaving a surplus of sl,-
973,103. For the month of February, 1897,
there was a deficit of $4,395,059. The re
ceipts from the several sources of revenue
during last month are given as follows-
Customs, *15,040,680; increase as compar
ed with February. 1897, about $3,500,000;
international revenue, $12,600,318; increase
‘about $400,000.
Tlirtre was a decrease in the expenditures
for February as compared with the same
month last year of over $2,00,000. The
amounts paid out by the government to
secure bids and to pay first mortgages on
Kansas Pacific Railroad. $900,000, and *7-
515.255, respectively, have been repaid to
the treasury, and are deducted from this
month’s expenditures. The surplus tor
the eight months of the present fiscal year
5s shown to be *3.070,135.
The National Association of Democratic
Clubs, through its president, ex-Governor
Chauncey F. Black, and Secretary Law
rence Gardner, which has headquarters in
Washington, has sent out a circular letter
announcing rhe arrangements for the Jef
ferson Day banquet, at which Hon. Wil
liam J. Bryan and Senator Jones, chair
man of the Rational Committee, will be
the principal guests. How's this; and
Palmar and Bill Bynum not there? Is It
possible that Bryan is a real Democrat
French View of Us.
Most of the French journals have
been commenting extensively on the
American-Spanish crisis over the Maine
disaster. They do not treat lightly the
American loss, but doubt that Spain in her
pride will pay indemnity. The Temps
voices the French view rather interesting
ly as follows:
“Cuba is a royal morsel which tempts
a people intoxicated by their strength and
convinced that Monroism is the alpha and
omega of international law. But it is still
to be hoped that the conservative forces
are so powerful that they will at the last
moment stop the people and the govern
ment on the threshold of an adventure
which would not only be big with the
greatest consequences from an interna
tional point of view, but which might in
duce at home a sort of revolution and tihe
development of the most dreadful Caesar
ism, that evil which gnaws the vitals of
every democracy.”
"There seems to be a diversity of opin
ion as to who will be the next governor of
Georgia,” says the Wadley Banner. The
Banner has made a discovery. We were
under the impression that there was no
diversity of opinion.
A Diplomatist Needed.
Never before-in the history of the Amer
ican nation has the lack of a great diplo
matist and statesman at the head of the
State Department been so severely felt.
If the situation with regard to Spain were
a simple one, it would not matter, but it
does not require more than ordinary com
mon sense to see that complications are
certain to arise which will demand treat
ment only to be had at the hands of a.
thoroughly wise, trained, and brave for
eign minister. When some future Gibbon
writes the history of this country and
chronicles the great events now trans
piring, and sees the name of John Sher
man recorded as secretary of state, he
will wonder with amazement how an emi
nent statesman of his fame could have
made such a dismal failure. Poor Sher
man. Happy Day.
In reference to the vexed question of the
proper pronunciation of the name of the
author of Quo Vadis, and of the novel it
self, the New York Sun very justly says;
“As to Quo Vadis, the simple old-fashion
ed pronuneiat'ion quo as in quorum, va as
in evade, dis as in distinguished, is good
enough for us. Many distinguished La
tinists who are just beginning the Latin
reader, w’ill haye a fit at . the notion of
not saying Wahdees, or whatever the
proper barbaric sound is supposed to be;
and it is not in our hearts to rob any good
boy or any revered instructor of his pre
rogatives and enjoyments. Still it seems
a little queer that if the ancient Italians
joyously ichanged their v’s into w’s, the
modern Italians haven’t a native w sound
in their language.”

Lincoln’* Kindly Character.
Mr. Grow related a story about Lin
coln which illustrated two phases of the
martyr president’s character. Mr.
Grow, then speaker of tho house, had
gone to the president to ask the appoint
ment of a friend as a judge in one of
the territories. The president made a
note of the request. A few days later,
when Mr. Grow called at the White
House not about the judgeship, but
upon another matter, Mr. Lincoln at
once began to apologize. “Mr. Speak
er,” said he, “I meant to appoint your
friend to that judgeship, but a woman
came in here with yine small children
aud cue at the breast and pleaded the
bread act and breaded me out of it. ’’
“While we were talking, however,
Mr. Lincoln said that he would still at
tend to my matter and started to put
down my friend’s name. He went to his
hat, which was filled with papers, and
after remarking that he had a queer way
of doing things began fumbling until he
found a blank sheet. I told the presi
dent that if his bat should blow off a
lot of state secrets would be scattered,
but be only smiled, wrote down the
name and said that he nowkuew where
to find it when the time to consider the
matter came around.” Washington
Post.

“You have scarcely spoken to me at
all this evening, ” sho said in tones of
reproach.
“I— ’ beg your pardon,” her husband
returned apologetically. “I was just
trying to think of something to say.”
“Is (here anything on your mind?”
“Yea, to tell you the truth, there is.”
“Can t I help you in some way?”
“You might, if I could suggest it
without your becoming angry.”
“Tell me about it. It is my duty to
sympathize with you, you. know. ”
“On my birthday anniversary you
gave me a fountain pen.”
”Yes. Aud now you are going to say
that it makes a horrid muss and that
you don’t want to write with it.”
“I’m not going to say anything of
the kind,” he replied stoutly. “I’m go
ing to write with that pen every day of
my life. But there is one Tittle favor
that I would like to ask. ”
“What is it?”
“Please make me a suit of overalls to
go with it.’—Washington Star.

QUEER OLD NATURE.
“Why la It,” asked a wondering child
(Sweet, simple little thing),
“That the foolish tree puts on its clothM
When the sun shines in the spring,
And then, when chilly autumn comes
And the winds of winter blow.
Why does it stand out there, all bar*.
In the frost and sleet and snow ?’*
“Wise nature has arranged it thus,”
1 told the little one,
“The rustling leaves can only live
Beneath a smiling sun ;
Tho tree that in the summer time
Makes shady bowers for you
Must liave its rest, therefore it stands
Asleep the winter through.”
She sat in silence for awhile
And gazed far into space,
■ And lines of thought and trouble came
To mar her childish face,
And so, at Last, she turned and said:
‘‘l'm sorry for the tree.
And glad that nature wasn’t left
To fix things up for me!"

A Rebuke by Genera! Washington That
Evidently Frightened the Owner.
Major William Pierce left behind
him a partial record of the debates in
Philadelphia which supplement those
of Madison, Yates and King; also the
following anecdote:
When tho convention first opened at
Philadelphia, there were a number of
propositions brought forward as great
leading principles for the new govern
ment to be established for tho United
States. A copy of these propositions was
given to each member, with an injunc
tion to keep everything a profound se
cret. One morning, by accident, one of
the members dropped his copy of the
propositions, which, being luckily pick
ed up by General Mifiliu, was presented
to General Washington, our president,
who put it in his pocket. After the de
bates of the day were over and the ques
tion for adjournment was called for the
general arose from his seat and, previ
ous to his putting the question, address
ed the convention in the following man
ner:
“Gentlemen, I am sorry to find that
»ome one member of this body has been
ho neglectful of the secrets of tho con
vention us to drop in the statehouse a
copy of their proceedings, which by ac
cident was picked up an<J delivered to
me this morning. I must entreat gen
tlemen to be more careful, lest our
transactions get into the newspapers and
disturb the public repose by premature
speculations. I know not whose paper
it is, but there it is (throwing it down
on tho table). Let him who owns it take
it.” At the same time he bowed, picked
up his hat aud quitted tho room with a
dignity so severe that every person
seemed alarmed. For my part, I was
extremely so, for, putting my hand in
my pocket, I missed my copy of the
same paper, but, advancing up to the
table, my fears soon dissipated. I found
it to bo the handwriting of another per
son. When I went to my lodgings at
the Indian Queen, I found my copy in a
coat pocket which I had pulled off that
morning. It is something remarkable
that no person ever owned the paper.

Inadequate Identification. ,
A woman who is newly come to town
went into one of tho banks ono (fay last
week to have a check cashed. The pay
ing teller examined the check with that
air of suspicion a paying teller never
loses.
“You’ll have to be identified, mad
am,” he said politely, •
The woman was in a great hurry.
“Identified!” she said. “Why, I
haven’t time to go aud get anybody to
identify me! Besides, I don’t know
three people in town. ”
“I’m sorry,” said the teller, “but
the rule is invariable.”
“But,” protested the woman, “I
really am the Mary L. Brown named
on the check. You don’t doubt that, do
you?”
The teller looked embarrassed.
“It’s only a form, madam,” he said,
“but wo must insist on some identifica
tion. ”
A happy thought struck the woman.
Her name was on her Laudkerchief.
“Would the name on my handker
chief be any identification?” sho asked.
The teller replied that it would.
"Well, then,” said she. majestically,
handing over tho square of linen, “per
haps you’ll be good enough to give me
the money now!”
The teller examined the handkerchief
aud handed it back without a word. In
oue corner was daintily written in in
delible ink, “Sarah Jones.”
The check was not cashed till next
day, and the newly arrived woman has
discharged her laundress.—Washington
Post.
Prussian Streets.
The German emperor as king of Prus
sia has the sole right to name streets,
and he has just refused his consent to
the proposal to call two streets after the
names of Dr. Bertram and Dr. Langer
hans, two popular members of the mu
nicipal council. His majesty disapproves
of such a course during the lifetime of
the godfathers. This apparently refers
to men of official standing only, whose
political opinions might change after
the streets had been named, for the
Moinmsenstrasse in Charlottenburg was
recently passed with approval. Some
new German streets have a tendency to
long names. “Prince August von Wur
tembergstrasse” is today a name and
nothing more. The houses have still to
be built.

» Scared Tennyson.
Teunyson oue day entered a club read- ;
ing room and sat down in a large arm
chair before the fire. Much to the amaze
ment of the other occupants of the
room, he proceeded to elevate his feet
until they rested on the chimneypiece
iu “real American’ fashion. No expos
tulations ou the part of bis friends re
specting the iuelegauce of the position
were of the slightest avail. Suddenly a
brilliant inspiration seized oue of them.
Goiug close to Lord Tennyson, he whis
pered iu his ear, “Take your feet down
or they 11 mistake you for Lougfellow. ’’
iu ;ui instant the poet’s boots were on
the floor, and he assumed the ordinary
position of au Englishman.—Sau Fran
cisco Argonaut.
Calm In Time of Emergency.

again. We are discussing the “crime of
the split infinitive.’’—Chicago Tribune.
