ONLY ADVERTISERS SURVIVE. The Danville (III.) "Commercial News” Presents the Results of an Investigation of the Prosperity of Danville Busineai Men’ Covering a Period of Twenty Years. Only the progressive, wideawake .business men who advertised their wares twenty years ago and who ad vertise them today survive, or eau hope to survive with a business that will make fair returns on the amount Invested. This Is evidenced by pe rusing the Hies of l lie Commercial of twenty and thirty years ago and com paring the advertisements with those of today. Of more titan one hundred business houses of various sorts In Danville In the yesr 188!*, tml sixty of them were advertisers, and only six of them reg ,ular advertisers. Of Hits number there are now In business In litis city five of the llrms doing business lure twenty years ago, and each of those still in business were regular adver tisers In the newspapers published In thin city at the time. It Is again the , "survival of the Attest," and demon strates conclusively that only those merchantsfwlio call attention to their wares, the cheap prices quoted and the, quality of the goods can hope to conduct lheir successfully. There Is another thing about this breaking, of Ihe Rolltl South, abuiil which so much Is sHld al present. It will Involve the cracking of some po litical heeds. A small tax on tea led to the war of Independence, but now we can tnke a tax on tea and on every thing else without doing more than grmnullng about It.

THE YEAR 190f3 AND AERIAI. NAVIGATION. With the coming of spring comes also the revival of activity and ex perimentation In aerial navigation. During the winter months this work was necessarllv confined mostly to study and research. When practical aerial navtgtlon shall have become an established fact aerial voyages will lx- made in winter as well as in summer, but so long as It remains In the purely experimental stave climatic reasons put a bar to those. Hence during tho winter months little was done and no progress was made. But with the coming of spring the active work will be resumed. It has in fait already begun, and a notable success has marked the first experiment of the year. This was In the flight of the Zeppelin airship last Friday. On that day the Count took his great airship out for a cruise. Afler the airship sal ed a storm arose, and for the first time an airship successfully weathered a storm A landing was successfully made and the airship anchored to lerra firma In safety, like a vessel an choring In a safe harbor while t ! e storm tossed billows raged outside, and after the storm had blown over the voyage was resumed and com pleted In safety to Its point of destination. Balloons have bee,, caught before in storms, but only to coine to disaster In their helpless drifting In the wind. The Zeppelin success war thi’ first time that an airship successfully weathered a storm and de spite It completed its pre-arranged voyage. This li an encouraging start for the year's experimentations, for which arrangements have been made In all countries. During the year there will he a number of aerial races, and the aviators and aeronauts of the world will strive with each other In efforts to make the greatest progress in this new art. That the English Channel will be crossed during the '.ear, not by chance as this has been done before, but In a regu.arly srheduledVrlp, Is quite certain; and in view of what has been accomplished it Is not keying up expectations too high to look for a successful crossing of the Atlantic ocean during the year. This year of 1309 will probally be made memorable In history as the year during which aerial navigation, altur more than a century s active experimenting, was developed so as to pass from the purely ex perimental stage to the stage of practical use. Before the end of the year airships will sail on schedule trips, and the bulldlug of airships will have become an established Industry. By a singular coincidence it will be separated by the span of a round century from the first authentic navigation of a steamboat. While the centennial of the first, trip of Fulton's Clermont, up the Hud son river Is being celebrated, an afshlp niay make the same trip through the air for the first time. REFORESTING SOUTHERN LANDS ’lhe proposition of President Trn< ■■■ 1. Hickman of the Oranlteville Manu facturing Company to reforest wito long leaf pine about 3.000 aeres of land In Aiken county which Ihe com pany owns Is attracting national at tention. By all authorities on for estry and political economy the pro position Is most heartily commended, it will prove In the end a most valu able investment, and the stockhold ers of the company will have rea son to thank tho foresight of their president. The plan requires no great outlav of money. It consists of gathering the pine mast, the seeds of the pines, and scattering them In the woods, lightly covering them. After the upturn will do the rest. In the yellow pine forests during the fall the seed lie thick on the ground, cnrrled from the trees by the wind which blows the wlngllke seeds out of the cones. A large quantity of them may lie gathered nt small cost. It Is better, even If no absolutely ne cessary, to plant the seeds where the trees are to gnog, for tin 1 pine has x tap root which should not he broken. The seeds germinate readily and the young trees grow fast. Sown thickly It will tend to make the young tree grow straight, and they at tain a height of twenty to thirty feel - In a few years. The process of thin ning them should begin early, and use can be found for these tall and slen der poles, which from the time they can be out begin to yield an income from the land, besides the Income it may he made to yield by using It as a pasture. And in this way, almost without cost, a body of yellow pltin timber may he provided against the time, not far distant, when tills eluss of timber will be almost as valuable as black walnut or blrdaeye maple Is now. Hut why should President Hick man or the owners of large bodies of land be the only ones to reforest land with yellow pine In this manner? The small farmer hna the same op portunity. On nearly every farm there Is some land which Is not cul tivated and which cannot well be cul tivated. Merely the scattering of the pine seed, with sufficient attention afterwards to prevent the young trees from being destroyed, will do It? liven a sapllug pine thicket In creases the valno of tho land, a value which will Increase as the trees grow and as timber become# more scare. It Is better than money In the bank, because It will double in value much fuster. Every farmer and land own er should study this subject of re forestation. Thetes money in It. SURNAMES OF THE FATHERS There was less than 30,000 differ ent surnames in the oountry in 17»0, of which annost half appeared but once Hero are the leading family j names of that time, with the number! !of individuals responding to each:! I Smith, 38.245; Brown. 19,170; Davis, 14,300; Jones, 14.300; Johnson, 14,. j 004; Clark, 18,766; Williams, 12,717; | Miller, 12.694; Wilson. 9,7767. These! ! nine names represented about 4 per j cent of the total white population In 1790. The English stock composed ' 93.5 per cent of all the white popu | latlon in 1790 and. If the Scotch and ! Irish be added, the British stock com posed more than 90 per cent; the Germans contributed less than c per cent, and the Dutch 2 per cent. In 1900 the white population was about evenly divided between the descend ant* of persons enumerated In 1790 and the descendant# of later arrivals. —New York Mall. j THE FUTURE OF THE AUTO MOBILE. One of the reviews of a recent automobile show In the north recalls the fact that in the early days the automobile was attacked not with words alone. But It should be re membered that the automobile is not exceptional in this respect. The homely and conservative old stage coach was denounced, when It first appeared In England, as “the greatest evil that has happened of late years to the kingdom, mischiev ous to trade and destructive to the public health.” loiter the hackney coach, now known as the hack, was the subject of much bitter opposition. Some merchants of Ixindon complained of It just as skeptical statesmen here about are now complaining of the referendum. A popular poet named Taylor ground out a jeremiad to the effect that on account of the hacks a man couldn’t read, write, talk, hear, sleep or eat, the Inference being that Taylor went out of town to prepare his blast. But he survived; and so did the hack. The first ’buses used in Paris were hissed and stoned. But the Parisians found the ’bus handy when they wer? building barricades in the summer of 18110. And the objection .to the steam enre, on both sides of the ocean, is too well known to describe at length. Much so It will prove to be with the automobile. It cannot be denied, that the coming of the "Red Devils” was regarded with disfavor. Even now, af ter ten years of use and after they have come into almost general use as a pleasure carriage for those who can afford them, all manner of stringent regulations are sought to be operated against them, many of which must be ascribed solely to prejudice. But the time will come when all this will cease. Nothing is more cer tain than that the automobile not only has come to stay, but that It will be applied to general business uses for which the horse vehicles have hereto fore been used. They will he used for delivery purposes and all general uses about the city—as they become cheaper to such an extent probably as almost entirely to supplant the horse —and they will be adapted to farm uses and iargely used that way. In the automobile, history will re peat ihe experience of the stage coach and the railroad train. .VERTICAL TRANSPORTATION. Vertical transportation in New York has reached enormous proportions, and according to a paper recently read before the Electrical Engineering society of Columbia university twice as many people are carried vertically tvs are carried horizontally every 24 hours. Taking twenty-six of the large of fice building# in the lower part of the Borough of Manhattan, all of 18 floors or over, this authority states, we find a total of 672 floors In ifll, aggregating a height of approximately one and one-third miles. In these twenty-atx buildings there are 116 ex press elevators traveling an aggregate distance of 275 miles an hoif* and averaging 243,000 pussengers a day. These same twenty-six buildings have 115 local elevators rvinnlug approxi mately the same number of car miles ; per hour, but carrying about 372,000 passengers per day. This makes a ! total of 231 elevators running 4,400 1 miles carrying a total of 615,000 pas sengers per dtiv. Taking the 8,000 elevators used ex clusively to carrv passengers In the Borough of Manhattan and dividing them Into groups, allowing for the uumber of persons carried, we find that they transport approximately 6.- 500,000 passengers per day. From the last report of the public service com mission we learn that only 3.500,000 are carried per day by surface, ele vated, and subway cars In the entire clt}' of Greater New York—New York i Sun. THE AUGUSTA HERALD HUMORS OF THE NEW TARIFF How the Consumer is Deceived in Alleged Re ductions Where There is Really Increase. There are in the Payne tariff bill a few Illustrations of the ingenious ! way in which a duty can be raised, while the artless consumer Is mad;; to believe that It has been lowered. Take, for instance, linoleum, a.r, j article of common use among those | who are not particularly well to do. Under tho present law there is a duty I of 8 cents a square yard and 15 per . cent ad valorem on all under twelve j feet In width. On all over that width the duty Is 20 cents a yard and ,2fi per cent ad valorem. The ways and meens committee in its summary or reductions sayra: "Linoleum abov, nine feet from 20 cents a square yard and 20 per cent ad yalorem to 12 cents and 15 per cent ad valo rem . ” This is an increase, not a decrease. There were imported a year ago about 160,000 square yards of lino leum above twelve feet In width and 4,874.000 square yards under that width. Probably three-fourths of the goods paying the lower duty ranged In width from over nine feet propose is that the bulk of the importations shall pay 4 cents more a square yard than at present. Here Is a display of ingenuity not of a praiseworthy kind The con sumers may not be able to see any fun In the joke. The Pennsylvania manufacturers who asked for and got the higher duty do see the fun of it. In the east of cast polished plate glass an attempt is made to make an increase in a duty soem harmless by coupling with it a nominal decrease. The duties on all sizes under 720 square Inches are raised.’ That cov ers the sizes employed for furniture LITTLE BOBBIE'S PA By William F.

The duties on the larger sizes are lowered. Taking the 1907 importations as a basis, this would mean higher duties on about 5,700,000 pounds of glass and a decrease on 180,000. The American manufacturer can stand that trifling cut, for he has a protection of 155 per cent on the larger sizes. The fanner and the workingman would be profoundly grateful to con gress for legislation giving them cheaper window glass. They re joiced, doubtless, when they saw that mentioned among the articles on which duties were to be reduced. The laugh is on them, not on the manu facturers. The duty is reduced a little on cylinder, crown. anTT common window glass above 24x30 inches, but not on the lower sizes. The Impor tations under that size amount to 30,- 000,000 pounds, and those above it to about 1,600,000. One glass manufacturer was honest enough to wTite to the ways and means committee that his industry could stand a cut of 25 per cent. So it can. The difference between tho cost of production of a square foot of polished plate glass in Belgium and the United States is a little over 3 cents. The present tariff gives as much protection as if the difference were 15 cents. The consumer of this article of universal use is paying too much for it now - .

Then Ma took Pa by the collar the way she does up to the house, & she made him stand up & then we went shopping. TAXING THE NECESSITIES True, coffee and tea, cocoa, and candy are not necessities of life. They are luxuries. But they are dis tinctively the luxuries of the com mon people. However, the table tax is not the only part of the tariff bill which has a direct interest for the average man or woman. Stockings, it will be generally conceded, are necessities of modern civilization. Whittier’s barefoot boy is not a type of young America. American civili zation has not accepted the example of Sockless Jerry Simpson. Stock* ings it must have. Under the Ding ley bill there has been an average tax on Imported hosiery of 58.88 per cent. The Payne bill increases this tax by from 40 to 42 per cent on the cheaper grades, and 26 per cent on the medium grades. On stockings costing $1 a dozen abroad, every Am erican family must contribute 70 cents toward making up the national deficit. A Chicago dealer has figured it out that under the Payne bill 50- cent stockings would be advanced to 85 cents; 10-cent stockings would sell at 17 and 18 cents, and 25-cent stockings would sell at 40 cents. Do you wear stockings? If you do, fig ure out your interest in the Payne bill. Some one has figured it that the average schoolboy wears out eigh teen to twenty-two pairs of stockings a year; that the average girl require* fifteen pairs, and the average w/uan uses twelve pairs of every day stock ings every twelve months. The im ports of women's hosiery, according to the ways and means committee, are 5,101,689 dozen pairs, or two pairs for each woman and girl in the coun try. The average grade of imported stockings Is of the value of 11 cents a pair, on which grade the greatest increase in duty is imposed. The relation of the tariff to the Individual is thus stated as a simple arithmeti cal problem.—Boston Herald. CYCLONE CELLARS An enterprising advertiser is offer ing cyclone cellars for sale through the columns of the Gazette. Y'ou might think at first blush, if you think when you blush, that buying a cyclone cellar In a distant city and transporting it to your own back yard would he as difficult a job as cutting up the void of an old well and using the pieces for tence poet holes.
