Of late newspaper advertising has I freenmA a distinct trade in itself, and all over the country leading concents pay I totbni prices for men who are skillful in writing catchy advertisements. In I many large cities there are men earning from $3,000 to $10,000 a year to write ad vertisements. This fact in itself shows advertising pays. If people interested hi this subject j will investigate it for themselves they will find that the leading advertisers in The Plain Dealer are the merchants who have the best stores, the best assort ments of goods and who sell at the moot reasonable prioes. Sadi merchants do a much larger business than merchants who do not advertise; consequently they i torn their goods over more quickly and can afford to give better prices. Close buyers appreciate this. What is the Happy Hoosiers. Wm.

There is no foe to simple liv ing like the clothes fiend. It introduces all sorts of ghastly complications into onr modern life. Dress for. the weather without regard to the calendar. Refuse to carry, at the behest of a fashionable dressmaker, several pounds more of lin ings and draperies and jet trimming than you need to. Give every organ of your body room to do its simple duty. A re stricted circulation, and vital organs misplaced and tightly pressed by the vicious system of dress now in vogue are -at the bottom of two-thirds of the horri ble, nameless diseases of women. The praise of simplicity is in all men’s months, bat, as with many another vir tue, its praise and its practice are two very different things. Many have fallen into inconsistency in this regard from ignorance; yet even for those who un derstand it—that “first step in nature and last in art”—its pursuit, under the unfavorable conditions of modem life, is sufficiently difficult In “simple liv ing," however, lie the germs of true and and abiding happiness.

In a time of drought it is often neces sary to water plants, especially recently transplanted trees or shrubs. Unles.- really needed it is better not to begin for the application of water to the sur face as soon as it dries off leaves a dry crust around the plant, and the loss of moisture from below becomes greater than before, unless the ground is con stantly stirred np or water is again ap plied. Inafjuut of pouring the water into a hollow space on the -surface a better way is to make several holes around the tree or shrub with an iron rod to receive it and conduct it at once down among the roots. A still better method to pur sue with a few favorites that may need continual watering for several days is to «inlr to a level with the surface near the tree one or more of the cheap earthen flower pots or old tin cans with a few nm«il holes punched through the bottom and fill them with water. In this way the water will drain out slowly just where it is wanted and keep the roots rnnlat while the snrface remains compar atively dry. In applying water tenants it shoold be as warm as the- atmosphere, mmI *ti application that will be slowly absorbed is better than one ponied on, just as a moderate rain is better titan a hard, dashing storm.
