John Wanamaker's recent contract to pay the Philadelphia Record §IOO,OOO for a page advertisement every day in the year is itself of the best sort of advertis ing. This great contract is the subject of universal comment and remark, but it is only a small part of the newspaper advertising done by this house. In Now York the advertising bills of Wanatnaker aro as high as in Philadel phia. Ho is therefore taking up the business of tho first American merchant prince, A. T. Stewart, where the latter left off. One of the chief causes of Mr. Stewart's success was his liberal adver tising and he was the pioneer in this branch of merchandising in this couu try. When Judge Hilton took control of tho Stewart store he stopped advertis ing in the newspapers, believing that the name of the house was so well and favorably known that It was unneces sary to call daily attention to it. A few yoars of this sort of business manage ment was enough to destroy the prop erty and it was eventually sold under the hammer to John Wanamakor. Mr. Wanatnaker had not taken pos session of tho new business before he began advertising it freely in the New York papers. And ho has kept adver tising daily ever since. The result is that despite the discouraging prophe cies of many of Mr. Wanamaker's friends his store in New York is doing a larger business than his store in Phila delphia and a much larger business than it ever did under the management of Stewart. The street car conductors have orders to stop their cars and an nounce Wanamaker's. This single establishment has restored retail busi ness to tho locality whore it formerly flourished. Mr. Wanamaker is the best judge of tho causes of his phenomenal success and ho attributes it to constant atten tion to details and to advertising. In this age of publicity to attempt to build up commercial success without regular advertising is to be handicapped by deliberate neglect of tho most im portant single factor in creating trade. It is such contracts as Wanamaker has mado with the Philadelphia Record that enable him to continue to do a colossal business. The American flag floating over tho Sulu islands is a sight that is a crime to every home in the land. Tho Sulu islands are governed by a sultan, who, for his submission to the imperialistic program of the MeKinleyitos, receives an annual salary of §IO,OOO for the support of himself and his twelve wives. His harems and slave-pens are guaran teed the protection of the flag which was dedicated to the cause of human libeTty. For what ignoble purposes the stars and stripes will be next used is known only to the cotorie of land grabbers and liborty-throttlers who for the time being are unfortunately in control of tho American government. A writer who has evidently studied the. matter says: "They have now or ganized a compressed air trust. A liquid air trust is likely to follow, then will come the free air trust; and in due time we will have our breath strained through a meter at so much a breathe, and if we won't pay by the 10th of the mouth the company will shut off our wind." Governor Htone says that nobody doubts Mr. Creasy's honesty, or that he would make a good state treasurer. Then what more can be asked? Does Governor Stone prefer a state treasurer of the usual kind, one who will allow the money of the state to be used for speculating in stock? In Ohio a jilted young woman avenged herself by firing several shots from a pistol into the tires of her recreant lover's bicycle. Revenge of this sort is more spirited than a breach of pro mise suit and just about as satisfactory. A. Oswald sells Arbuckle's, Dills worth's, Lion and Levoring's coffee at 10 cents a pound. REVENGE WENT ASKEW, j Jobson Planned It Out All Right, but ! \Va Too Previous. Mr.Jobson got home from his office at.4.15 one afternoon last week and ; found a note from Mrs. .lobson saying that she had gone to hear the perform ance of a long-haired pianist, and that he'd find his dinner all ready for the girl to serve it "That's a good thing, too." mused Mr. Jobson sulkily, when he hud read the note. "it's a wonder these mat tress-headed geniuses that come over i here to this country and rake in Ameri- ! can dollars, hating Americans all the time, wouldn't call their game at an hour that 'ud permit a toiling man's wife to he on hand at home to give him something to eat when he wants it," etc., etc. The opportunity was too good for I Mr. Jobson to miss, so he declined to : eat any dinner when the servant put it i on the table. Instead, he slammed on j his hut and went down town. lie | wanted to give Mrs. Jobson a lesson. 1 He ate an unsatisfactory dinner at a j restaurant, and then poked around un til it was time for a variety theatre to ' open its doors. He had to watch a lot of poorly played billiard games in order to put in this time, and 10 talk with a lot of bachelors from whose ways of thinking he had departed. He was bored exceedingly by theatre time. The show bored him still more. Hut he stuck it out, for he wanted to get home as late as possible, the better to rub it in on Mrs. Jobson. By 11 o'clock lie reflected that lie had had a pretty poor sort of an evening—his evening paper unread, his favorite pipe neglected for a lot of cigars that gave him heartburn, a poor dinner, idle talk with a slew of men that he didn't want to talk to, and. finally, a tawdry, cheap variety perlormance that might have got a laugh out of him ten years before, but was only so much ribaldry to him now. He took in a couple more billiard games, however, after the show, and threw a couple of cocktails into himself, not because he cared to drink, but because he wanted Mrs. Jobson to smell his breath and thus perceive the awful consequences of her conduct. Mrs. Jobson was comfortably tucked in bed when Mr. Jobson got home about half an hour after midnight. She had not even left a light burning in the vestibule or in the bedroom. She woke up very leisurely when Mr. Jobson started one of the gas jets go ing, She didn't say anything, however. Mr. Jobson had expected to find her up, fully dressed and in tears. He was disappointed. He was more disap pointed that she didn't greet him with repinings. Mr. Jobson saw that she was likely to go to sleep again, and that he wasn't causing any grief at all by being haughty and keeping still. So he cleared his throat and said: "Did he play the Buck Dance Con certo in '/ minor with his hair, and how was it?" There was a lot of sarcasm in the way Mr. J6bson asked this question. Mrs. Jobson didn't turn ovor at all. "What are you talking about?" sne inquired, sleepily. "I want to know if that Dutchman that kept you away from your duty of serving a meal to your husband after his day of grinding labor gave you your money's worth; also if you think you're making any kind of a hit with anybody by these methods, hey? ' "Oil, the recital—that's what you're speaking of, isn't it?" said Mrs. Job son, sweetly. "Well, 1 didn't go. 1 had intended to go when 1 started out shopping in the morning, and left the note for you telling you so, but 1 thought it might annoy you to have me away from dinner, and so when 1 con cluded my shopping, about 4 o'clock this afternoon, 1 decided not to go to the recital. The Fourteenth street car that brought me uptown passed the car that took you downtown. I saw you on the open car, and wondered why you were going in that direcliou. 1 sup pose you had to go back to your office to work. It's shameful the way they're overworking you, you poor old thing," and then Mrs. Jobson, who knew that Mr. Jobson hadn't been working at his office, turned over and subsided into dreamy slumber. "You can't beat 'em," thought Mr. Jobson, when he got into bed. He was thinking of women in general—Wash ington Star. It Was Supremely Funny. "Haw, haw, haw," laughed the Eng lishman. "Funniest joke 1 ever heard." "What is it?" asked the American. "Why, a man got up one morning and couldn't find his alarm clock, so lie asked his wife what had become of it, and she said it had disappeared ; at t o'clock." "1 don't see anything so funny about that." "Don't you? Why—why neither do! now. Thought it was awful funny when I heard it, too. I . Oh, yes, now I know. She said it went oil' at 0 o'clock. Haw, haw, haw!"— Chicago Post. It Tulked l.ouder. "Yes," lie said in those deep, mellow tones which were wont to set the rab ble in a roar; "yes, 1 have gone into vaudeville.

Think of that. High art is soul convincing in its way, but here is something that talks still more eloquently." And he smote with his open palm upon ids pocket. As he did so there came forth the pleasant jingle of many coins.—Cleve land Pie • I onier A DltlWult Cvift. Patient—"You are worried about m> case, doctor; 1 can see it in your face."

You haven't paid me a cent in two years." Puck. Hoarding Home Conundrum. "When is a calf like a hen in hot wa ter?" inquired the facetious boarder, addressing nobody in particular. "1 don't know," replied the landlady. "Please tell us." "When it is a chicken stew," was the rcjilnder. And a deep hush fell upon the assemblage. New York Journal. UNCLE CALEB'S WILL. J "You mean that you can't put your self out to give your mother's brother ! a night's lodging!" said Caleb Cheverel, bitterly. The March wind, bearing dust and grit and bits of flying paper on its restless wings, came whistling around the corner, lifting the old man's faded comforter's ends and turning his blue nose a shade bluer still, while Mrs. j Larkins, his eldest niece, stood in her doorway, Ailing up the aperture with her ample person in such away as to j suggest the familiar legend, "No ad- i mitiance!" Mrs. Larkins was stout and bloom ing and cherry-cheeked, dressed in sub stantial alpaca, with gay gold brooch and eardrops, which bespoke anything but abject poverty. Uncle Caleb was thin and meager and shabbily dressed, with glossy j seams in his overcoat and linger-ends protruding from his worn gloves like ancient rosebuds coming out of their j calyx. "I'm very sorry," said Mrs. Larkins, stiffly; "but we have but one spare room, and that is at present occupied. Of course I should he glad to do all I I could for you, but " "1 understand, I understand," said Uncle Cheverel, turning coldly away, j "I'll go to my niece Jenny. I wish you ; a very good evening." Mrs. Larkins closed the door with a j sigh of very evident relief. "I dare say Jenny will take care of him," she said philosophically. "Jenny has a smaller family than 1 have. But I don't see why he came up to London instead of staying peaceably down in . Tortoise Hollow, where he belongs." ! Mrs. Jennie Eldertop,. Mr. Cheverel's youngest niece, had a smaller family | than her sister Rebecca, but then she { had a smaller income as well. She had j just finished a vigorous day's cleaning when Uncle Caleb was announced. "Oh, drat the man!" said Mrs. Elder- j lop, wringing her parboiled Angers out j of a basin of steaming soapsuds. "What sends him here, just now of all times In the world?" And she went down stairs ungra ciously enough to the street door, ; where her husband was welcoming the ' old stranger. "Come in. Uncle Cheverel!—come in!" said honest Will Eldertop. "We're all upside down here—we mostly are, : now that the spring cleaning is going on. But there's room for you if you don't mind the children and their noise and a little smell of whitewush in the i spare room. Mrs. Eldertop's welcome was by no means so cordial. She looked, to use a common expression, "vinegar and darning needles" at the visitor, while iu her inmost sou! she calculated the probability of the cold boiled ham and turnips holding out for once more at supper. "Come, Jenny, don't scowl so," said Mr. Eldertop, when Uncle Caleb had gone upstairs to wash his hands and face. "Ain't he your uncle?" "A good for nothing old vagabond," said Mrs. Eldertop, acidly, "without a | half-penny laid up ahead." "For all that he's your guest," said her husband, "and vou're bound to be civil to him. And here's his overcoat now, with a zig-zag rent in It. Just mend It while you are waltlug for the kettle to boil." "I won't!" said Mrs. Eldertop. "All right." retorted her lord and master. "Then I'll take It next door to Alexia Allen to mend." Now, Miss Allen, the talloress, who lived in the adjoining house, was pretty and buxom to look upon, and Mrs. El dertop had nursed comfortably a jeal ousy of her for the 'UJU four years. "You'll do no suoh thing," said Jenny, tartly. "Hand it here." And she threaded a needle with a black silk and thrust her Anger Into a thimble, very much as a determined j crusader of old might have donned sword and shield for some encounter with the Moslem. "What's that?" said Mr. Eldertop; for a folded paper fell from the pocket of the garment as his wife turned it up side down. "Some tomfoolery or the other," an swered Mrs. Jenny, brusquely. "I fancy you're mistaken," said Mr. Eldertop. "It's the rough draft of a will." "But he has got nothing to leave," shrieked Mrs. Eldertop. "I'm not so certain of that," retorted Will. "Just look here, Jenny! '1 give and bequeath to my two beloved nieces, in equally divided parts, the sum of £IO,OOO, at present Invested in consols, i and—" "Go on!" said Mrs. Eldertop, breath lessly. "Read the rest." "There is no rest," said her husband. "That's the end of the paper. It's only a rough draft, I tell you. And now, j what's your opinion of Uncle Cheverel's fortunes?" "He's been a miser all along," said Mrs. Eldertop, her face growing radi- , ant. "Making up poor mouths and j traveling around the country with all I this money in the funds. A regular old character—just like those one reads about in novels. Put it back, Will put it back. We've no business to be prying into Uncle Caleb's secrets; but what a blessing it is he came here in stead of stopping at Rebecca Larkins." ; And when Uncle Cheverel came down stairs he was surprised at the sweet i smiles with which his niece Jenny wel- i corned him. "Been mending my coat, eh?" said Uncle Cheverel. "Thank'ee kindly, Jenny. 1 caught it on a nail yesterday, and I was calculating to sew it up my self. when I could borrer a needle and thread." "I'm glad to be of use, Uncle Caleb," 1 beamed Mrs. Eldertop. "Johnny, put on your cap and run to the grocer's for a smoked mackerel for your uncle's breakfast. I hope you found your room comfortable, Uncle Caleb?" Before she slept that night Mrs. El dertop put on her bonnet and shawl and ran round to the Larkins' mansion to impart her wonderful tidings to Sister Rebecca. "You don't say so," cried out the as tonished matron. "Gospel truth!" said Mrs. Eldertop. "I saw It with my own eyes." "He must come here," said Mrs. Lar kins, resolutely. "Not if I know it," said Mrs. Elder top. "He's my guest and my guest he shall remain." "But if I'm to share equally with you," said Mrs. Larkins, "I ought to show hint some attention, the dear, generous-hearted old man." "Lest he should alter his will," shrewdly remarked. Sistst Jenny. "You always were a worldly creature, Becky!" | "No more than yourself!" said Mrs. Larklna, bristling up. "But it's my : family I am thinking of, Jenny. I'll tell you what—l'll come around and see him to-morrow." "But don't you breathe a syllable abou! the will," said Mrs. Eldertop, in a mysterious whisper. "Oh, not for worlds," said Mrs. Lar kins, fervently. During the next week Uncle Cheverel was overwhelmed with civilities. On Thursday a new suit of clothes arrived, with Mrs. Larkins' best love and com pliments. On Friday Mrs. Larkins came with an open barouche to take dear Uncle Caleb for a drive in the park. And on Saturday Mrs. Eldertop burst into tears and declared she should never be happy again if her mother's only brother didn't pledge himself then and there to make his future home with herself and Will. Uncle Caleb looked a little puzzled. "Well," said he, "if you really make a point of it—but I was intending to meet Cousin John at Gravesend." "Dear uncle, promise me to stay here always," cried Mrs. Eldertop, hyster ically. "Just as you say, Niece Jenny," as sented the old man, complacently. Mrs. Eldertop felt that she had car ried her point. But when Mr. and Mrs. Larkins came on Sunday afternoon to press a similar petition, Uncle Caleb opened his eyes. "My importance seems to have 'gone up' in the market," he observed quaint ly. "I never was in such demand among my relatives before. But I can't be in two places at once, that's plain." And he decided to remain with Mrs. Eldertop, greatly to the indignation of the Larkins family, who did not hesi tate to hint boldly at unfair advantages and undue Impartiality. But just as Mrs. Larkins was rising to depart, with her handkerchief to her eyes, little Johnny Eldertop came clamoring for a piece of paper to cut a kite tail from. "Go along," said Mrs. Eldertop, im patiently. "We have no paper hero. Go to Amelia." "Hold on, little chap—hold oh!" said Uncle Caleb, fumbling in his overcoat pocket—he had been Just about starting for a walk when the Larkins party ar rived—-"here's a bit as is of no use to nobody." And he produced the "rough draft" and bestowed it on Johnny. "One side's written on," sakl he, "and t'other ain't. It was lying on the floor in Mr. Watkin's law office, when I stepped in to see if Joseph Hall was employed there as porter still. An old chum of mine Hall was in Tortoise Hol low. I can't hear to see even a bit of paper wasted, so I axed the clerk if It was of any use. He said no—it was only a draft of Dr. Falcon's will. Dr. Falcon made a new will every six months, he said, so I just picked it up and put it in my pocket. Everything comes In use once In seven j'ears, they say, and this is Just right for little Johnny's kite tail." Mrs. Ijarkins looked at Mrs Eldertop, Mr. Eldertop stared into the spectacled eyes of Mr. Larkins. Uncle Caleb chuckled benevolently as little Johnny skipped away with the piece of paper which had been freight ed with such wealth of anticipation. The Larkinses took leave without any unnecessary formula of adieux, and Mrs. Eldertop took occasion to tell Uncle Caleb that perhaps he had better prosecute his original design of the Gravesend visit. "Because we're expecting company to-morrow." said she, "and our best room will be wanted for a while. And," A SHRELOCK: HOLMES, A Sharp Eyed Individual Wheae Deduc tlons Were Logical. J'The last man who used this 'phone,'* said a Now Orleans Sherlock Holmes, preparing to wrestle with the instru ment in u public station, "was a short little fellow in a deuce of a hurry, smoking a cigarette. He asked for the Illinois Central freight office, was told they were busy and repeated the re quest fivo times, getting madder at each call. Meanwhile his cigarette went out, and after vainly searching for a match" "Hold on there!" exclaimed a friend, who had accompanied him to the booth. "What kind of a fairy story are you giving me, anyhow?" "No fairy story at all," replied the amateur sleuth, blandly. "I was mere ly stating a few facts." "But how the dickens did you ascer tain them?" "Plain as ABC, my boy. To begin with, the adjustable mouthpiece of the instrument is pulled down, as you see, to its fullest extent, indicating clearly that the last user was very much un dersized. Isn't that evident?" "Y-e-e-es, I guess so; but how about the rest?" "Well, look at that ledge, and you will observe five charred spots and an equal number of small piles of tobacco ash. What do you infer? Why, obvi ously, that the gentleman was smoking and laid down his cigarette each time he called. The piles of ash are still un disturbed, showing they were recently deposited, and they are small, proving plainly that the intervals of calling were brief, j "My logical conclusion was that the | 'phone he wanted happened to be busy, and 1 looked instinctively for a memo randum of its number, which most men make under such circumstances. I found it, as I anticipated, on top of the box, scrawled in pencil and recognized the number of the freight office. Such memoranda are almost always rubbed out by the sleeve of the next customer, and as this one is still fresh and bright, it is fair to presume it was made by the last man in the booth—otherwise the short chap with the cigarette. More over, a freight office 'phone is usually j busy at this hour, so the clews inter lock and sustain one another. Not so, my dear boy?" I "But the matches?" j "Oh, deduce the match incident from those fresh toothpicks on the floor. Where a man in a hurry searches for a match he invaribly finds quantities of i toothpicks. I would" j "Are you through with that 'phone?" asked a short, stout stranger, appear ing suddenly at the door and vigorous ly puffing a cigarette: "because if you j are I" | "Certainly, sir," said the analyst, smiling. "I think you will lind the l freight office disengaged at present" I "Well, I'll be hanged," said the friend.—New Orleans Times-Democrat- A CASE IN POINT. Dissertation on the Vlrtne of Telling the Unvarnished Tratli. ' "The hypocrisies in which women in dulge arc very fatiguing," remarked Mr. Blykins, with that lofty and irri tating air which he adopts when he feels like lecturing, according to the Washington Star. "These social slmms are as foolish as they,are unnecessary." "Do you think they are eonlined to feminine existence?" inquired his wife, gently. "Of course they are. A man goeß straight to the point. He doesn't de- Bcend to petty falsehood in an idle at tempt to conceal his real motives and feelings. He doesn't send word thut he isn't in when somebody whom he wishes to avoid calls. He doesn't gush and coo over somebody and then talk about him behind his back. He says what lie has to say straight from tile shoulder and never takes any of it back." "Don't you think that there are lit tle conventional fictions which it is just as well to employ, if only for the sake of one's own self-respect?" "Never! This world would get on twice as smoothly if nobody said any thing he didn't absolutely mean." "Hy the way," she exclaimed, ab ruptly changing the subject, "did you write to Mr. Squidly to-day us you said you were going to?" "Yes. And there's a case in point. I didn't mince words with him. I put it all down in black and white. I told him exactly what 1 think he isand then looked in u book of synonyms for inoro words. It won't do any good, of course, but it was some satisfaction to call his attention to limseif and let him know that there is somebody who isn't to be fooled by his hypocritical mask." "How didyou sign the letter?" "With my own name, of course. I wouldn'tsend anything anonymously." "What did you put before your name?" "Why, I wrote the usual line 'Yours very respectfully' " And then Mr. Blykins relapsed into silence. llmnhoo Curtains. Aii amusing story, illustrative of the difference between eyes and no eyes, is told by the New Orleans Times- Democrat. "I noticed such a sweet decorative Idea on this street yesterday," said a lady visitor to. a New Orleans friend, while taking a trolley ride near the French market. "It was a house," she continued, "hung at all the second and third story windows with pale yellow bamboo curtains. They were perfect ly plain and all of the same shade, but you have no idea how they set off the old place. Why, they simply glorified it." "Hu-ra-m," mused her friend, "I don't recall the house. Just point it out as we go by, will you V" Presently the visitor uttered an ex clamation. "There it is!" she cried. "The house of the bamboo curtains! I'm sure a colony of artists must live there!" "A colony of Italians,' said her friend, grimly. "That's not bamboo. It's a spaghetti factory. They hang the stuff out there to dry." Society Note.
