While the country as a whole js in(ercsted in reciprocity with various other nations, reciprocity, to the newspapers of Richmond, has assumed a different aspect. There must be more reciprocity between Richmond's merchants and Richmond's newspapers. At present the newspapers of this city give the merchants absolute protection from the competition of merchants in other cities as far as advertising is concerned. Xeither Richmond paper will accept advertising from Indianapolis, Dayton or Cincinnati merchants. A clear field is given to the Richmond merchant who advertises as far as outside competition is concerned and all competition is limited to the merchants of Richmond Tilone. Hy placing this limitation on outside merchants the newspapers of Richmond have voluntarily and unselfishly given up a great source of revenue. Every yoar the merchants from the cities mentioned above have endeavored to gain access to the advertising columns of both the Richmond papers but tho privilege has always been withheld. But in return for this voluntary sacrifice the Richmond newspapers have not been accorded the consideration their action has warranted. Many of the merchants of Richmond have not seen fit to reciprocate with the newspapers and confine their advertising to tho papers of their city. On the contrary some of our largest merchants spend more for advertising with the little weeklies of nearby towns than they do with the daily newspapers of their own home city. This would not be so bad were it not for the fact that invariably every town in which one of these weeklies Is located has more subscribers to the two Richmond newspapers than to Its own weekly. In other words j the merchant who patronizes these weeklies not only does Richmond and Richmond newspapers an Injustice but! spends his money for advertising foolishly because he is only buying duplicate circulation. Another point is the merchant who advertises in Richmond newspapqfs is protected from the advertising of outside merchants. The merchant who advertises in the weeklies of nearby towns is not protected from the advertising of merchants of other cities. For example, the Richmond merchant who advertises in a Liberty weekly generally finds in the same Issue advertisements from merchants in Hamilton or Connersville. At Hammond, Indiana, a newspaper carried out a rather Interesting experiment. The merchants of Hammond were spending a great deal of their advertising money with weeklies in nearby towns and very little with the Hammond daily paper, despite the protection it gave from outside advertising competition. The manager of this Hammond paper went to Chicago and closed advertising contracts with some of the largest merchants of that city. These contracts were all for a period of three months and aggregated far more than his paper had been receiving from Hammond merchants. Three months of this outside advertising competition convinced the Hammond merchants of the value of advertising in their own home pa per and at the end of that time the manager of the Hammond paper had no difficulty in obtaining enough contracts from local advertisers to warrant him in doing without outside advertising. IUit proving this to the merchants of Hammond was very expensive to them on account of the Hmount of business they lost to the Chicago merchants. If Richmond newspapers were forced to go to the fxtreme the Hammond paper was, in order to convince our merchants of the great value of their own home advertising mediums it Is not difficult to see what a difference in dollars and cents it would make to them. Suppose Richmond newspapers were forced to seek advertising from Indianapons, Cincinnati. Hamilton, nayton and Muncie. Hamilton and Cincinnati can be easily reached by the Pennsylvania. Dayton or Indianapolis are within a short distance by interurban and the C, C. & I-, goes directly to Muncie. To force such action as this on the Richmond newspapers would be nothing short of suicidal for thousands of dollars worth of purchases would be attracted away from Richmond if our newspapers were to open their advertising columns to the merchants of the cities mentioned above. It is well for any merchant to remember

that if he expects the newspaper to strive for continual improvement, to fight against larger papers for circulation, to push the trade-at-home argument he must reciprocate and show his belief in the trade-at-home theory by trading with his home papers instead of going to the outside papers.

A President's Daughter. When President Grant's only daughter, Nellie, afterward Mrs. Sartoris, was a miss of twelve years, she attended a private school in Washington. One afternoon, says the author of ''The Olivia Letters," Nellie's lessons were not learned. The carriage came for her, but the teacher dismissed it with the request that it should return at the end of a half hour. The half hour came and glided away with the lesson still unlearned. The carriage came again and was dismissed. At the end of the second half hour the lesson was committed, and Miss Nellie was permitted to go. The next day at the usual hour the young lady arrived, accompanied by her mother. The teacher began to fear she had lost her most cherished pupil, but Mrs. Grant came to thank her for performing her duty. "Teach her," said Mrs. Grant, "that she Is only plain, simple Nellie Grant, subject to the same rules which govern all the scholars. This course will have my sincere approbation." Reached the Limit. A Providence girl, who has been married about six months, had wedding cards a short time ago from an old school friend who had given her a wedding present, which, of course, demanded one in return. Among her wedding presents the Providence girl bad duplicates in the shape of two silver card trays, and in a spirit of economy she decided to give one of these to her friend. It was marked with her own initials, but it would be only a matter of a few minutes to have them removed and the proper monogram cut. She took it to the jeweler and explaiued what was to be done. He picked up the tray, looked at it closely and smiled. "Madam," said he, 'It will be impossible. I have already changed the initials on this same tray five times, and it has worn so thin that I cannot do it again without cutting through the bottom." Providence Journal. His Fears Realized. For years the old country couple had looked forward to spending a holiday In London, and one day they found themselves In the very busiest part of the city. Together they stood watching the traffic, to which there seemed no end. They did not know how to cross the street. "Whatever you do, Liza, don't git separated from me," said the old man to his wife, "and. whatever you do, don't cross the road without me." Then a kindly constaole came along and, seeing the old woman hesitating, took her by the arm and commenced to pilot her to the opposite side. "Dang my buttons," cried out the old man in alarm, "I alius told 'er that some one wud take a fancy to 'er, but I didn't think any one 'ud 'ave the imperance to take 'er afore my very eyes!" London Tit-Bits. STRUCK HITCH BACK FELL OVER IT Unusual Feature of Monday Afternoon Runaway. HORSE NOT BADLY HURT. A peculiar accident happened Monday afternoon about 4::jo. A horse, which was standing in the alley at the rear of the Starr piano sales rooms at Tenth and Main streets, suddenly became frightened at some object and promptly bolted toward Tenth street. Near the building on the Tenth street side of the vacant lot at Tenth and Main streets stands an iron hitch rack about four feet high. In bolting across Tenth street the frightened animal did not notice this obstruction. He plunged into it with such force that he was carried clear over it. alighting in a heap in the lot. In a minute a large crowd was attracted to the scene and the horse was helped to his feet. He limped slightly and showed a few bruises, otherwise he appeared to I) 2 uninjured by his high hurdle feat. The hitch rack was uninjured. Every man deeply respects the individual who is guided and governed by cool iudgjment and common sense. If j one finds his habtis of food or drink are producing some hints of disease he should heed nature's warnings and properly adjust his diet to keep the beautiful human ma chinery in order. I One does not always know i where to commence to correct ;a diet, but one thing to stop is 'coffee, a most alluring and in I sidious enemy that "sings one to sleep and knifes him." The slow, but sure effect of caffeine the active drug j in coffee on the heart, finally produces weak pulse and deranged nervous system which grow slowly but steadily more pronounced and end in some fixed organic disease unless the cause be removed.

Washington, Ost. 20. The nw railway station which, with its approches and tunnels, cost more than ;?20.MMV (mn. and which is intended to be a model of its kind for the whole of the United States, for at least two generations, was first used Sunday. The work has been under way for three years. Standing close to the national capitol and the new senate office buildings, the station is one of the most conspicuous piles in Washington. In addition to its architectural perfections, it is one of the largest stations of its kind in the world and its dimensions are greater than those of any station in the United States. Even St. Louis will now have to turn over the palm to Washington, as the building proper is 2t" feet longer and ! feet wider. The "concourse," which corresponds in its location and general use to what is known in the St. Louis union station as the "midway," is admittedly the . " . , . . . , greatest hall of its kind in the world. The features of the station, which is expected to arouse the greatest interI ,. , j. e est, are the special entrance rooms for the president of the United States and j a suite for diplomats. Situated at an elevation of about GOj feet above tide, and with a gently sloping plaza and approaches to insure perfect drainage, the magnificent station directly faces the capitol and the new senate office building, and is within a few minutes' walk to either. The' station site before the work of con-1 struction commenced was low and a fill of about rN0.rX cubic yards was necessary in starting the improvement. Is 632 Feet Long. The station building proper, which is of white granite from Vermont, is (532 feet 30 inches in length, and 2lo feet 9 inches in width, and the general height of the building varies from (!." feet in the east and west wings, to 120 feet in the main waiting room.

To the east of this general waiting room is located the main dining room, containing t,4.jij square feet of space. This dining room is very spacious in appearance, decorated with marble columns and mural decorations. It will make the most elaborate banquet room in Washington and is calculated that more than a thousand people can be accommodated in it at one time. President's Suite in East Wing. To the east of the dining room, lunch room and women's waiting room, and in the east wing of the building, is the state reception suite and president's room, with a private carriage way leading to it. The state suite, which Is for the use of the president, diplomats or official parties departing from or arriving at the station, is a new departure in station building. The main reception room of this suite contains a total area of 2.130 square feet, and the general layout of this suite is such that trains may be reached without coming in contact with the public. At the extreme west end of the station is located a carriage driveway for use of the general public and from which entrance is directly into the ticket corridor. All the woodwork is solid mahogany. The passenger concourse is the largest room, under a single roof, in the world. HONOR WELL DESERVED. There is hardly a Pennsy employe at Logansport that would begrudge the two prizes awarded to Patrick Clary, supervisor of the Logansport division, recently tendered him by the general officials as the result of his section being the best on the entire Pennsy lines west of Pittsburg. Mr. Clary has been with the Pennsylvania for a number of years and during his entire service he has been a most faithful and efficient employe. In all. Clary will receive $300 as his share of the prize money and what is altogether far more important his name will be placed at the head of the list of the most efficient track snnervLinraJ
