Injudicious advertising is like fishing
where there’s no fish. You neeo to let the
lines fair in the right place.
A constant dropping will wear a rock.
Keep dropping your advertisements on the
public and they will soon melt under it like
rock salt.
Large Type isn’t necessary in adverlis
sing. Blind folks don’t read newspapers.
If you can arouse curosity by an adver*
tisemenyit is a great point gained. Tin*
fair sek don’t bold “ all the curosity in
■amtrn'ro nm;st tu'i'ip,;— r
less your sands of life be run out.
Wheo you advertise, see that von do it
on the principle that you buy goods. Gel
the most you ffan for the money.
People who advertise only once in three
months forget that most folks can’t remem
ber anything longer than seven days.
The Cincinnati! Gazette rises to explain
its views about a popular poem, f**f ihe
duties of the modern newspaper in the
following language : We thought we were

‘Beautiful Snow, but the falling flakes yes

published it twice every winter for the
past ten years/ but must -decline it this
winter We do no# wish to wear out a

written by Major Sigourney, Charles Fax

Advertising Aphorisms.
Judicious advertising- always pays.
ITyou have a good thing, advertise it.
If you havn't don’t.
If you don’t mean to.mind your own buss
iness, it will not pay to advertise.
Never run down yeur opponents’ goods
in public. Let him do his own advertising.
It’s as true of advertising as of anything
else in this world—if it is worth doing at
all, it is worth doing well,
don't recemmend advertising as the
best way to get a wife; but we know that
it is the best way to get a good u-ade.
You cau’t cat enough in one week to last
ft whole year, and you can’t advertise on
that plan either.
‘lt is strange h:w closely people read
the papers. We nevef say anything that
anybody don’t like but what we soon hear
of it, and everybody tells ns about it. But,
if once in a while we happen to say a good
thing, we never hear that —anybody seems
to notice that. We may pay some man a
hundred compliments, and give him a dozen
puffs and he takes ft as a tribute to his
greatness and never thinks anything about
it never thinks it does him any good.
But if we happen to say something that
this very man does not like, or something
that’ he imagines reflects on him or his
character, see how quickly he flies np and
gets mad about it. All our evil is duly
charged to us, but we never apparently,
get any credit for what good we do.’
The way in which Robert Bonner com
menced to lay the foundation of ‘hat ridio
ulonslv large fortune of his is said to be
this : He worked at the case as a printer
at $8 per week, and wrote letters to conn
try paper#,. When he had saved up SSOO he
bought the Merchants* Ledger, and now he
owns Dexter, and Elliott,Jand
zer, and Ramises the first, and ever so many
other nags. He has, besides, ranch city
lots, two or three millions in stocks and
things, and an income of $4,000 a week, on
on which he manage to rough it. Bat then

He refuses to be drawn oot, and it is said
that even: to his iuiimate friends he has
Imlo to say about politics. The subject
either has to charm for him, or elss he
considers himsety a failure as a politician.
No, that is baldly it, either, for ids success

How Lorraine Became a Part or France
—The history of the republic of Metz is
distinct from the history of the Dukes of
Lorraine, and we must return lo thefifteenlh
ceutuiy in order to Understand how Lorraine
enters first into tlie history and afterward
into the dominion of France. Charles the
Bold, Duke of Burgundy, was ambitious of
building up an empire between Germany
and France, and part of this empire wan to
be the Duchy of Lorraine. lie began by
seizing the person of the young Duke. Rent?
II. s and compelling him to yield certain
fortresses atid a road through Lorraine for
his troops. But Charles encountering a
severe check near the Rhine, Louis XL
encouraged R* ne to declare war, and at
the battle of Nauc.v, Charles the Bold lost
his Hie. Ftp in Fene 11., the Gnis s wcr«
descended; the ambition of this family was
afterward fatal not only to themselves, but
also to the House of Lorraine. French uuU
for became familiar to the eyes of the
peaceful French aignatures ap«.
peared frequent ly in the ftaie papers of the
little palace at Nancy,
Loots XiV. came to the throne with his
eyes fixed on Lorraine, the possession of
which had been gradually prepared, for
him % the p liey of Richelieu and Maza
rin. But there were do sudden aggress
ions, as in th** case of Alsace. In 1652 the
Duke Charles, who had no legitimate issue,
arranged in return for a ready money pay
ment, that Lorraine should go to theFreuch
crown after his death. Although this ar
rangement was not actually carried out,
Lorraine from that time was cotnp etely
cut off from the German empire; it remain
ed a dukedom only iu name; and when, tu
1736, King Stanislaus, the fa her-in-law
of Louis XV , lotst his crown ho received
the Bnehy of Lorraine on condition that
after hi- death it -hoold pass to the French
crown, while the Duke of*Lortaine ieceiv«d
the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, which had
fallen vacant by the extinction of the great
'family of the Medici.— Cassei’s Travels.

It was reported not long s»nce in the

that he had remitted to the treasury three-*

he squeezed the money out of the last faint
