There are no shrewder business men in the world, and now we are informed these enlightened indi- viduals are to abandon the big, highly colored, sensational bill board and window lithograph advertising and rely more fully upon the most legiti- mate method of advertising, the news- papers. They have found out by dear experience that posters and lithographs are an expensive method, and do not give as good results as newspapers. Bound and gagged, the maiden was thrust into a gunny sack, and unable to move or scream, felt herself carried up a flight of stairs from the dungeon, and then driven down the street st a rapid rate. Ineffegtually she struggled to release herself from the gag. Alas! she was bound too securely. Finally the conveyanee stopped. She was again carried into a building, and faint- unmasked, took the gag from her mouth, his eyes gleaming like coals of fire through his black mask, released her and hissed through his tightly clenched teeth: “There,, my pretty bird, scream and yell -as long as you like, no human ear will ever reach you. You are in my power. Do you hear? Totally within my power.” “Where am I?” she gasped. “In a store that never advertises,” was the cruel re- sponse. “Alas! Alas!” she moaned. “No power on earth can save me; no one will look for me} here,” and the poor girl fainted. —Ex.

We attended the opening of the Donges theater, in Meyersdale, last Thursdey evening, and we must say that we were greatly surprised atthe magnitude and fineness thereof. Mey- ersdale now has a theater that is mod- ern in every respect, and it compares very favorably with theaters in large cities. The seating capacity is 1000, and the manager, Oscar Allen, is thor- oughly up to date in that position. The opening play was “His Majestey and the Maid,” a very interasting trag- edy that was well rendered by a strong company. A crowd of Salisbury people were in attendanee, and all were well pleased. We thank Manager Allen for press courtesies, and \. B. Stevanus for a free sleigh ride to Meyersdale. A COSTLY MISTAKE. Blunders are sometimes very expen- sive.

The audience was very large, and many people were in atte ndanee from neighboring towns and villages. The program was a most delightful one, and people are loud in praise thereof. The organist, Mr. Earl Byron Byers, of Omaha, Neb , is a musician of great ability, and each rendition was en- thusiastically applauded. The soloist, Miss Emma Craig Saw- hill. of Allegheny, Pa., is the possessor of a voice of rare sweetness and per- fection of tone. Her solos were the delight of #11 present, and the round after round of applause that the charm- ing little lady received, amply attested the pleasure of the audience.
