And it came to pass that after
Vie had advertised his goods there
came unto him people from all
sections of the county and did
buy of him. And when his com
petitors saw it. they marveled
anvng themselves saying: "Bow
bo it that the man is busy while we
loaf about the doors?" "Verily,
verily, I say unto you, in this fast
age of push and rustle it is easier
for a camel to enter the eye of a
needle than for a business man
to llourish without advertising in

What 'Iluiii.'dity" Means.
Humidity is the amount of
aqueous vapor in the atmosphere
compared w ith that which is re
quired to saturate it under given
condition? as a temperature
spec it' cully called relative humid
ity. If the atmosphere is com
pletely saturate-! the humidity is
expressed .is I'0; if perfectly dry

comes so saturated that the re
lative hum i'iity reaches the h'O
;n.-iat li.er-' i.s ra'cfnll. There
can, however, be a rainfall in a
place where the relative humidity
has not reached 100. Theoxpres
siou "relative humidity i)G"means
that the atmosphere is within
four one hundredths for being
thoroughly saturated. The hu
midity varies widely iu different
places and iu the same places at
different times.
