CHAPTER Vlt-Co-ntinuei. Felix took the tnunSure of his man at gncev He rpvued his knife, and held ft un thrdlateninsly. 'See here, fellow," he said, in a'low, slow tone, but with great decision, "if v'du -lure to speak or look life o thai at that lady godor ao otl I'll drive this knife straight up to the handle in your heart, though your peoole kill me for it afterward ten thousand times over. I am not afraid of you. Thc?e savages may be afraid, and may think you are a Ifod: but tf you are, then X am a arod ten thousand times stronger than you. One more word- 0:10 moro look like that, I say and 1 plunge this knife remorselessly into von." Tu-Kila-Kilu drew natjk, and siriiled benignly. Stalwart fii tiah as tie was, and absolute master 6( his own people's Hvesi he was yet afraid in a way of the Strange now-comer. Vajrue stores 6f the men with white fa es he "sailing gods" had reached him irom time to time: ana tnougn only twice within his memory had Kuropean boats landed on his island, he vet knew Enough, of the race to know that they were at least very powerful deities more powerful with their Woapons than even he was. Besides, a man who could draw down lire from heaven with a. piece of wax and a little metal box might surely wither him to ashes, tf he would, as he stood lie fore him. The very fact that Felix bearded him thus openly to his fa o astonished and somewhat terrified the superstitious Bavaffft. Evervhndv e!s on the Island was afraid of him: then certainly a man who was not afraid must hn thn nnaanasor of some most efficacious and mag- : 1 - j : : TT1. r . ... .

"I hate and detest you." "What does he say?" Mnriel asked, in an agony of fear at the savage's black looks. "Is be going to kill us? "No." Felix answered boldly. "I think he's afraid of us. He's going to ao nothing, xou need t fear him." tjan she not speak.'" the savage asked, pointing his finger somewhat rudely toward Muriel. "Has she no . v.j vmw buui, wuo vi hjxi uo.

"She can speak the language of the people of our distant country a beautiful language, which is as far superior to the speech of the brown men of A ViJUUDUl IU HUD nUU 1U t'UG UUttVCUS ISS superior to the 1 ght of a candlon t But she can't speak the wretched tongue of you Boupari cannibals. I thank Heaven she can't, for it saves her from understanding the hate'ui things your people would say of her. Now go! I have seen already enough of you. I am not afraid. Remember, I am as powerful a god as you, I heed not fear. You cannot hurt me." A baleful light gleam e 1 in the cannibal's eye. But he thought it best to temporise. Powerful as he was on h's island, there was one thing yet raorj powerful by far ttan he; and that was Taboo the custom and supjrstitioa handed down from his ancestors. These strangers were Korong; he dare aot touch them, except in the way and manner apnointed by custom. If he did, god as he was, his people themselves" would turn and rend him. He was a god, but he was bound on every side by the strictest taboo.?. Ho dare'not himself o.ter violence to Felix So he turned with a smile and bided his time. He knew it would come. He i could afford to laucrh. Then, iroing to the door, ha said, with his grand affable manner to his chiefs around, I have spoken with the gods, mv ministers, within. They have kissed '. my hands. My rain has fallen. All is well in the land. Arise, let us go away hence to my temple." I jne savages put tnemselves in inarching order at once. "It is the voice of a god'th sy said, reverently. "Let us take back Tu-Kila-Kila to his temple home. Le; us escort the lord of the divine umbrella. Wherever ho is, these trees and plants put forth green leaves and nourish. At his bidding flowers bloom and springs of water rise up in fountains. His presence diffuses heavenly blessings." I think, ' t elu: said, turning to poor, terrified Muriel, "I've sent tho ' . .. 1. - i. . . ; . . . ,, wretch away with a bee in his bonnet. CHAPTER VIII. THE CUSTOMS OF BOUPARI. Human nature cmnot always keep jti the full stretch of excitement. It was wonderful to both Felix and Muriel bnvr soon they settled iown into a qsiet routine of life on the Island of Boupari. A week passed away two weeks -three weeks -and tho chances of relief seemed to arrow slenderer and slenderer. All they could ao now was to wait for the stray accident of a passng ship, and then try, if possible, to signal it, or to put o it in a canoe, if the natives would allow them. Meanwhile their lives for the moment seemed fairly safe. Though for the first few days they lived in constant alarm, this feeling, after a time, gave way to one of comparative security. The strange institution of Taboo protected them more efficiently in their wattled huts than the whole police force of London could have done in a Belgravian mansion. There thieves break through and steal, in spite of bolts and bars and metropolian constables: but at Boupari no native, however daring or however wicked, would ever venture to transgress the narrow line of white coral sand which protected the castaways like an intangible wall from all outer interfer ence. Within this impalpable ringfence they were absolutely safe from all rude intrusion, save that of the two Shadows, who waited upon them, dav and night, with unfailing willingness. In other respects, considering the circumstances, thei? life was an easv one. The natives brought them freely of their simple store -yam, taro. bread-fruit, and cocoanuts. with plenty of fish, crabs, and lobsters, as well as eggs by the basketful and even some times chickens. Thev reauired no nav beyond a nod and a smile, and went awav happy at those slender recognitions, teiix discovered, in tact, that they bad got into a recrion where tho arid generalizations of political economy do not apply; where Adam Smith is unread and Mill necrlootea: where the supply and demand readjust themselves continuously by simpler and more generous principles than the familiar European one of "the higglinsr of the market." The people, too, though utter sav ages, were not in thoir own way altogetuer unpieasing. it was iceir customs and superstitions, rather than themselve-i, that wuro so i rnel and horrible.

Muriel was afraid to venture for a stop beyond th precincts of their own huts; aha it was long befuro she could make n her mind to go 11 lone t hrough the jungle paths with Mali, unaccompanied by Felix. Hut by degrees she learned that she could walk by herself (of course, with the inevitable Shadow ever by her side) over tho whole island, and meet everywhere with nothing from men, women, and children but the utmost respect and gracious courtesy. Tho young lads, as sho papsod, would Btund asido from the path, with downcast eyes, ami let her go by with all tho politeness of chivalrous English gentlemen. The old men would raise their eyes, but cross their hands on their breasts, and stand motionless for a few minutes till silS gdt almost Out Of sight. The women would bfiug thttir pi:et:y brown babies for t he PsAf English lady to admire or to pat in the head; and when Muriel now and again stooped down to caress some fat little naked cnild, lolling in tho dust 'outside the hut, with true tropical laziness, the mothers would run up at ! tho sight with delight and joy, 'and ! mruw winnscivca umtn 111 ucsuieios ui ! gratitude for tho notieo sho had taken I of their favored little ones. "The gbds of heaven," they would say, with every Sign of pleasure, '-navo looked graciously upon our Unaloa." At lir.-t Felix and Muriel were mainiy struck with the politeness and deference which the natives displayed toward them. But after a time Felix at least began to observe, Dohind it all, that a certain amount of affection, and even of something like commiseration as well, seemed to bo mingled with tho respeet ana reverence snowerea upon them by their Hosts.

" A young girl soon makes herself at home anywhere, and Muriel, protected alike by her native innocence, and by the invisible cloak of Polyne sian taboo, quickly learned to under- ' stand and to sympathize with these j poor dusky mothers. One morning, some weeks after their arrival, she cashed down the main street of tho village, aocoaipaniod by Felix and their two attendants, and reached the marae the open forum or place of publit; USeiUUiy WHICH SIfUOU III its njiusb; ' a .Tiuinln. ..1 f..,... ...!,. v... bread-lruit trees, under whose broad. cool shade tho people were sitting in little groups, and talking together. They wore dressed in tho regular oldtime festive eostiime of Pdlynesia, for BouDuri, being a sma l add remote island, to insignificant to bo visited hv ; European ships, rotainod still all its aborigiual heathen manners and cus toms. Tho sight was. indeed, a curio is and pi turcsque one. The girls, large-limbed, soft-skinned, and with delicately rounded figuros, sat on the ground, laughing and talking, with their knees crossed under them; their wrists were encinctured with girdles of dark-red dracoena leaves, their swelling bosoms half concealed, half accentuated by hanging necklets of flowersi Their beautiful brown arms and shonldors were bare throughout: thoir long, black hair was gracefully twined and knotted with bright scarlet Dowers. The men, .strong ar.a stalwart) sat behind on short str.d?s or lounged on the buttressed roots of the bread-fruit trees, clad like the women in narrow waistbelts of the long red dracoena leaves, with necklets of sharks' teoth. pendent chain of pearly shells, a warrior's cap on their well-shaped heads, and an armlet of n itive beans, arranged below the shoulder, around their powerful arms. Altogether it was a striking and beautiful picture. Muriel, now almost released from her early sense of fear, stnod still to look at it. Tho men and girls woro laughing and chatting merrily together. Most of them were engaged in holding up before them fine mats; and a row ot mulberry cloth, spread along on tho ground, led to a hut near one side of the marae. Toward this the eyes of tne spectators were turned, "vvnat is it, Mali?" Muriel whispered, her woman's instinct leading her at once to expect that something special was going on in the way of local festivities. And Mali answered at once, with many nods and smiles: "All right, Missy Qucenie Him a wedding, a marriage." The words had hardly escaped her lips when a very pretty young girl. half smothered in Mowers, and decked out in beads and fancy shells, emerged .. 1 1 .. t . v. . v. .. . ., ,i !. i slowly from the hut, and took her way with stately tread along tne patn carpeted with native cloth. Sho was girt round the waist with rich-colored milts, which formed a long train, like a court dress, trailing on the ground five or six feet bonind her. "That's the bride, Isuppose, "Muriel whispered, now really interested for what woman on earth, wherever she may be, can resist the seductive delights of a wedding?" "Yes, horabrido," Mali answered: "and ladies what fo.low, them her bridesmaids." At tho word six other girls, similarly dressed, tho .igh without the train, and demure as nuns, emerged from the hut in slow order, two and two, behind her. Muriel and Felix moved forward with natural curiosity toward the scone. Tho natives, now ranged In arowalonir the path, with mats turned inward, made way for them gladly. All seemed pleased that Heaven should thus auspiciously honor the occasion; and the bride herself, as well as tho bridegroom, who.decked in shells and teeth, advanced from tho opposito side along the path to meet her, looked up with grateful smiles at the two Europeans. Muriel, in return, smiled her most gracious and girlish recognition. As the bride drew near, she couldn't refrain from bending forward a little to look at the girl's really graceful costume. As sho did so, the skirt of her own European dress brushed for a second against the bride's train, trailed carelessly many yards on the ground behind her. Almost before they could know what had happened, a wiid commot ion arose, as if by magic, in the crowd around them. Loudcriosof "Taboo! Taboo!" mixed with inarticulate screams burst, on every side from tho assembled natives. In the twinkling of an eye they were surrounded by an angry, threatening throng, who didn't daro to draw near, but, standing a yard or two off, drow stone knives freely and shook thoir fists, scowling in tho Btrangers' faco.s. The change wus appalling in its electric suddenness. Muriel drew back horrified, in au agony of alarm. "Oh, what have I done!" she cried pitoously, clinging to Felix for support. "Why on earth aro they angry with us?" "I don't know." Felix answered, taken aback himself. "1 can't say exactly in what you'o transgressed. Hut you must, unconsciously, in souif wty 'havo oilanded thoir projiidlucB. 1

The crowd gathered round them, still very threatening in attitude, yet clearly afraid to approach within arm's length fif the stranger. .Mtiriel Was hutch lrightoried al their h;is j arid at their frantic gestures. "Homo away,' sho cried, cat. liing Felix by the arm once more. "Oh. what are they going to do to us? Will t hey kill us for this? I'iil so horribly afraid". Oh, why did I over do it! ' The poor little bride meaiiwhile,lcft

alone on t he carpet, and unnoticed by everybody, sank suddenly down on the mats where shr stood, burled nor fa iu her hands, and began to si a if her heart would lirenu. I'.Udentiv something very untoward of some ror had happened to the dusky lady ou her wedding morning. Tho final touch was too much lor poor Muriel's overwrought nerves. She. too, gave way in a teni; est of sobs, and, subsiding on one of tho na ivc stools hard by, burst into tears herself with half hysterical violence. TO UK OONriNTKU. An Automatic Proposer. The tendency 1 1 redu.c everything to mcchanl s is rapidly invading the precincts of morality and we may in time be taught to be upright by machiuery it we shall not in thii year ot oht Lord 18.1 do so from msp r tlon. But here romcs an ugly rumor that has Ins! eiiouifli of n to ich ot possibility lu'tigled with its humor to ruaice it luterestiug. A thoroughly modern Ph listine announces the invention of an "auto malic proposer," in these words: "In these practical days, when time is literally and nictu, horically money, we must not waste with sighing. doubting, longing ana the many other dilatory drain.; stances of love. Courtsh p must le compressed to re duce it to legitimate, up-to date limits, t submit, ttVn, that it should be obligatory for all under the age of 10, and unmarried, to wear my 'Patent Automatic Proposer.' 'This Is a small mahogany case which contains an electric appartus and bells connected by wires with the heart and wrists. 1 dwln and Angelina adore each other but they dare not declare the passion whi . h consumes them. Edwin and Anne Una meet; their pulses quicken; this a ts at once upon the instruments and starts the bells of both. They then learn that each loves the other and the tinkling of the 'automatic proposer is the happy precursor to louder reals from the wedding bells." Nothing could be more delightful. Appendicitis. Many uninformed people were doubtless surprised to read in the pa pers that, although both Norman L. Munroe and bis son were operated on lor appendicitis no foreign substance Was found in the appendix of cither Of thcni. The notion is widely prevalent that appendicitis s always caused by the lodgment of an orange seed, a grape seed, or something of that kind in this intestinal append age, producing inflammation. This Is not the fact. Cases have been found in which foreign substan es were found in the appendix, but ac cording to a au geoti Who has performed nearly 200 operations for re tnoval of tli s appendix, such cases are comparatively few. The prevail ing opinion among those who are wise on this subject Is th.it appendicitis is caased by microbe, but the investigations have not ad van ed far enough to enable this to be deter mined With accuracy. It is believed that many cases formerly supposed to be acute colic were really cases of appendicitis. According to authori ties, by the way, this word (which is so recent that it is not to be found in the Century Dictionary) is pro nounced with a long "i" in the last syllable but one, and the ending "His' has the same pronounclation In "bronchitis," "peritonitis" "tonsilitis," and other words of that class, New York Tribune. Calming the Waves. Knowing the remarkable action of oil upon waves the oilicersof a Ger man steamship recently made an ex periment upon the same principle which was very successful. During its last trip to the United States, the vessel, while in m d-ocean, was at tacked by a very heavy shorm. It then occurred to the oflicers to dissolve a large quantity of soap in tubs of water. Having thus obtained several hundred gallons of soapsuds in a very short time, they threw it overboard in front of the ship. The effect was alruost instantaneous, and the vessel soon began to navigate without difficulty. Her officers say that although soapsuds d es not produce absosutely all the effects upon water that oil doe.-, it at least hufhees to break tne force or waves in most cases. I esides, this method recommends itself to transi ortation companies careful of their interests. Soapsuds Is much cheaper than oil, and a relatively large quantity of soap can be carried without en broaching too much upon the spacj set apart for passengers and merchandise. Cheap Enough. What can te dgne in one city in the world can be done in any other: i onscqiicntl.v tho proposal which Is on foot t" ''Kbl, London with electricity for nothing, is of general interest It seems that it costs London four sh 1lings and six', once per ton to get rid of its refuse, the contents of dustbins, road-sweepings, and that sort of thing. Now a Frenchman has invented a combination of boilers, Hues, and steam-producing apparatus generally that will burn this refuse of London at a cost of a shilling a ton. The steam generated by burning street sweepings and the contents of dust-bins will be suiticient to run dynamos enough to light London. So, as well as sav.ng three shillings anil sixpence a ton on getting rid or its refuse, London ran bo lighted for nothing, which is certainly cheap enough to Katisfy the most exacting. Iet Her Have Hie Hird. Mrs. Lillie Pcvereiix lilake says that the eagle on our American dollars is a feminine bird, though Mr. Ingalls has been telling around that it repiesents the sterner sex. As woman is getti ng the ballot she may as well have the bird, too. The dominion ol man is last passing away, and he will need no more symbols of any sort unless they be something of a do e like, submissive aspect. St. Louis Post-Wspatch.

Tho achievement of tho American people in providing for tho enormus expenditure requited for the suppression tA the rebellion has oxeited tho wonder of foi e gn statesmen and arousod the admiration of foreign e ouomi ts. Yet the pecuniary less of the last few months i greater than the three thousand millions of tho national debt which was piled upon tho shoulders of the nation by tho most gigantic civil war on record. The mighty contest which convu'sed the country for fo.;r years was less exponsi. o in dollars and cents than the misru'e of Grover Cleveland and the Democratic party for a year and a quarter. There is no danger that the people will forget these "things. They have boon branded on mind and heart too deeply t.i bo effaced. But it is essential that their full import should be constantly bjrne in mind by Northern Senators at Washington. The people of the North have gonj to tha polls and demanded by o erwhelming majorities that protection should be upheld and prosperity restored. They have demanded that the McKinley law shall be maintained. They have declared with ominous emphasis that no Northern Senator who fails to oppose the Democratic scheme of treason and spoliation can look for honor or preferment at their hands. Never in the annals of this republic has the will of the nation been more unmistakably expressed at the ba 1 it-box. Never have the commands of the voters been m-Jie explicit or more imperative. Never has tho path of honor, of duty and of patriotism been made moro plain for the olected representatives of the American pooplo. Tho tariff bill now I eforo the Senate would be ridiculous if it were not detestable and contemptible if it woro not dangerous. Tho very men who support it, under tho par.y lash despise it. The leading Democratic newsj a pers of tho country brand it as the product of eon uption and tre: chery. An open free trado bill would at !oa t be intelligible. A bill putting all raw materials on the free list would at least be consistent. Both would bo pernicious and destructive. Both would doserve and receive solid Hepublican opposition. But the nondescript cmpound of barter and sectional revenge the fourth or fifth in tho succession of tariti bills brought forward by the Democratic managers in the lost six months has not even the merit of consistency. It bears the same relation to an avowed fro? trade measure which tho sneaking guerrillas who fought from ambush and wluse solo object was plunder, bore to the Confederate ermies who faced the soldiers of the North in the open field. Tho guerrillas received no quarter. The guerrilla bill for the destruction of Northern industries deserves none. The Bourbon measure jealously defends Southern intt rests and strikes a malignant blow at the prosperity of tho North. Its sugar schedules aro examples of shameless robbery. It dooms tho va-t wool-growing industry of the North and West to absolute extermination. It destroys the Northern bo -t sugar industry, tho Northern lumber industry, and tho Northern suit industry. It cripples tho great woolen manufacturing interests of tho North aud makes a wholosa'e reduction of waeres to tho foreign standard inevit able if it shall pas.. It undormines American industrial independence and treacherously opem tho gates at u hundred points to foreign pauper competition. Outrageous as it is, there is every assurance that it will lie made more ruinous sun n n ever roacnes conference eommitteo. I here is but one course to pursue toward such au abomination, and tha is to kill it. Every Northern and u estern Senator is bound by fidelity to his constituents and loyalty to the nation to bar the passage of the iniquitous measure. Tho defeat of this scheme of corruption and treason will be tho signal for the restoration of American prosperity. Now J ork Press, KllfClund Musi ('mill, to T I'"'.

That duty is t thoroughly organ'ze the party's strength, so thn ; every possiblo influence can be brought to bear in the Congressional elections next fall. X( t a sinelo vote thai might bo secured should be lcjt. The Domccra'ie party seems at tho Pro ont timo to bo ei mplet.; y demoraled, and many con ervativ 3 mon believe that u Republican victory is ali eady assured. But o- 3r-co:itidence is a dangerous thing, and bee tuse of it tho Bomiblicais have lost important 1 olitical battles in the past. Tho Democracy has the happy faculty of uniting its forces ju t before ireat elec tions, and because its leaders devote their best energlsj toward i souring- a perfect organ! ation thev li ive sometim s been able to win victc. ies which the Kopublidns were confidant would fall to th lr lot, and wh eh ; ley would have won had t l ey display jl half as 11111 h e ergy as the DouocraU dii. The liest plan 1 f organiztt ion is to form Hepublican club) in c-ery o'.ty, town and village, of which ery member should l e an acti e at d earnest worker. There are such club 1 in many of t ho larg.-r places, but 1:0 f i- ;ld should bo left uncovered. Whsr clubs already exist no effort shculd lie spare! to increa-e t':eir moiuliershi ). These clubs exert a remarkable in:l jence upon the communities in which t'.:ey are orguni. 'd. They serve to d i seminite political ii, formation, and to I cep alive the vital issues f tho e mtui.:gn. Tho Pemocrats me their c'.ub iieudquartofj to the l est possible ad'-antije, as is shown by the compactness 0: the Tammany organization in N'v York. Thoro are such head puarierti in every Assembly district, and in fimt, in almost every election dist let if the city. Tho result is that Tammany is able to tiiruiv upon the exact v.. ting strength ol the organization at all thins. Too much value cannot to rlaced upon the elub plan of orguni: ittion this year, nor can the important of the ccming elections be exagKt'iBtel. It is absolute y recessary tha tho Republicans should secure a tri jority in tho next National House of Hepresentalives. Tho industries of t, io nation are at stake. Now is the tiuif to begin tho campaign. Delays aro al'rays dangerous, and never more S3 ttan when in tho peso nee cf an Etre, determined and malignant ent niy. If active agitation is begun at this si: ago, the result will bo that tho pi imt ties will bo well attended, tho bost mo 1 will be sent as delegate: to the u ninating conventio is, and the stron?eM no siblo candidates chosen. Tho proper medium for agitation is the locn club orgari'ations. If the He ublicans hal I eeo as thoroughly organized as tho l enioerats in 18'x', we would, in all 1 robabil ty, have won that election and ha"c bu nsparod the uwful depression and dist, ess that have followed the Deniocratio victory.

The War to Tell an Orange. Big oranges are not good. They are all skin and fiber. If you want "a yellow cup o; wino" buy small fruit; that is, fruit that runs 115 or 200 to the' box Weigh it hi tho hand and take the heaviest. Sweet, sound oranges are full of wino and sugar and very heavy. A thin, smooth skin is a good sign. vii'e, decp-porod skins aro unmistakable signs of a coarse, spongy article. Bright yellow oranges usually cost more - ban russet, oocause they are prettier. When tho commission merchant buys in a hurry he saves time by taking' an orange bctweon his hands and squeezing it to death. If it runs a cup Of wino ho takes as much of the cargo as ho needs; if it runs dry he cuts the price or refuses' to trade. Thoi'o is no surer way to tell the real value of an orange, mandarin, or grape fruit. Internal Temperature of Tree. The internal temperature of trees has been observed from some time past by M. Prinz of ITecle, in Belgium, who fi ids their mean annual temperature ao the heart of the trunk the same es thai Of air, but tne mean monthly temperature of the trees sometimes differs from the latter by two degree br three degree ceatigcie. On certain da9 the difference in Question may bo as much as ten degree centigrade. In very cold Weather the internal temperature falls to a very few tenths of a degree below the freezing point end then remains stationary. In very hot weather the temperature of the tree stays at fifteen degree centigrade or thereabouts. A largo tree is therefore colder in hot weather and warmer in cold weather than air. London Globe. Frequent OnMlnugrhta On the delicate membrane of the bowels and stomach with drastic purgatives must have their natural conseqmnce to weaken and disable both orgios. Nature exacts severe penalties for lnfrlnttcniButs of ber laws, and there is no more glaring one than that which consists in fieqnent and unnecessary dosing with violent eathartioj. This is, however, the course pursued by mauy unwlso people who eeem to think that the bowels, unless constantly relaxed, are not in aheatthy state. When a laxative is really needed, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters :.s the safest and most tborong h. It neither gripes nor operates violently or excessively. It invigorates the intestines and stomach, and arouses the liver. Regularity and vigor an guaranteed by its use. Sleep promoted, f.ppeilte restored, are among ite benign effects. A tendency to rheumatism and kidney trouble Is nullified by it. and it completely eradicates malarial -complaints. Hard Times In Lapland. The existing distress in Swedish Laplan 1, caused by the heavy snows of lost winter, is described as being exceedingly severe. Generally the reindeer easily finds nourishment beneath the anew, but this winter that has been impossible. The snow was so deep and hard that the animals could not pie ce it. On the Finland side there was plenty of food for them and they went by thousaffds across the Irontier. when they were confiscated by Finland. These creatures are the whole riches of the Laplanders, who are stated to be now quite beggared. London News.

SURPRISING FIGURES, The Extent of Advertising Don by tn Lydia & flaKhKm Medicine Company. Some idea of the importance of the Lydia E. Finkham Medicine Company, as a Lyon enterprise, may be estimated by the amount of advertising which is placed by them ia the leadlnc newspapers of America. Advertising is in their lino ono of the surf at gauges by which to judge the extent ot their business. The newspaper advertising of thisfamous concern is all placed through the advertising agency of Pettingili & Co., lioaton, aud the writer recently learned while ia their offices that eight tons of electrotypes were shipped by them to tho newspapers in one day, all of which were advertisements of the Lydia . Finkham's Vegetable Compound. Some Idea of the extent of such advertising can bo formed when one considers the fact that a'flve-lnoh electrotype weighs but a few ounces, and that eight tons consists of 256.000 ounces, or an uuioiint eu&tclont to furnish all the leading publications of America with more than Ave electrotypes each.
