There is now a steady quickening in the channels of commerce, industry and trade. . It is not a speculative boom, but it is the result of revived confidence and the certain diffusion of capital into industrial and other business enter- prises. It is all the safer because it is not tempestuous, and every days gain in improved business will be enduring. With steadily growing business, the study of business men is: How to get it: and those who best understand how to reach the people in the way most ac- ceptable to them will profit most by the general revival. Those who lag in old- time methods, or wait until the busi‘ ness boom knocks at their doors, will > find themselves outstripped in the race. The experience of the ripest business men has fully demonstrated that the only way to seek legitimate business with certainty of success is through the advertising columns of the widely- read newspapers. No business man or firm with a well-organized system of management and with articles which are needed to offer to the public, has ever yet failed to acquire fortune by judicious and persistent advertising. The advertisements of the newspapers are no longer conventional. They are as fresh, sparkling, entertaining and lustructive as the news columns them- selves, and the art of advertising is now fully understood by those who have attained success by employing it. The GAZETTE 1s more Widely read by intelligent, prog‘reSsive and thrifty people, and in the homes of the land, than any other journal in the town. Sharing the general revival of prosper- ity it is steadily and rapidly advancing in circulation, and with its thousands of daily readers, it is among the most desirable of all the channels offered fer business men to extend their trade. Business is growing, and it is likely to continue to grow with increased mo- mentum for a long season. The ques- tion for business men to study is how_ to reach the largest profits from the revival of industry and trade. Those Who would have no dull seasons must advertise wisely, and those who would gather the largest share of the great increase in the volume of trade, must seek the best newspapers to reach the best customers. Business improve- ment is here; who will most profit by t '8 The Advance of Farming. \‘l'riting of the prairie states in The North American Review for August, Mr. Mulhall says that farming has ud- vanCed there in the past forty years with even greater rapidity than the population. In that time the improved area under farms has shown an ad- vance of 157,000,000 acres in thtse states, or 13,000 acrcsdaily, making a incrclse in the acreage per inhabitant from .3 to 8. In other words. the. new farms laid down and improved between 1850111111 1890 exceeded the tctal im- perial area of the German empire, T‘Io-‘ land. Belgium and Denmark collective- ly. Mr. Mulhall says: There has been noching like this in the history of man- kind. nor is there any part of the world where farming is on so gigantic a'scale, as in the twelve states of the central west, five of which were not in existence in 1850, but which by the census of 1890 showed a grain crop equal to three tons per inhabitant, or ten times the European average. It is true, he says, that since 1860 the production of grain has declined, the average crop for the years 1893-94-95 being much less; nevertheless the pro- duction of food is colossal, compared with Europe, for these prairie states raise nearly as much grain as France, Germany and Austria collectively, and almost twice as‘ much meat as either France or Austria. I The foremost state in production is Iowa, with an average of five tons of grain and 500 pounds of meat per in- habitant, her grain crop being larger than that of Italy or Spain. The prosperity of the western farmer has been so great that he has increased his wealth nine fold in forty years, and there has been taken from the soil $190,000,000 worth of products a year during that period. . ' Thee: are evidences that this nation has been exceptionally blessed and that it is the greatest and most prosperous agricultural nation in the world. ‘vW 7* FEMININE CHAT. An hour cannot be more pleasantly or profitably spent than in having one’s head thoroughly shampooed. The woman who generally has her own way sooner or later develops into a mild sort of tyrant. Quality rather than quantity is the word that governs the housewives mar- keting in sultry weather. Garden parties are the leading enter- tainments at suburban resorts. An alarm of fire hasn’t half the ter- ror for the insured that it has for the uninsured. The active ice cream freezer is about the only thing working over time in this weather. The woman with the greatest number of rings is always the most ardent fancy worker. From the slow way in which some people pay bills they apparently think that others do not have to live in the summer months. Letters from Paris announce that gloves and silk petticoats are the only things selling at moderate prices in that Mecca of the fashionablgpvorld. The agony the timid batheOr experi- ences when some facetious friend “ducks ” her in the water is only com- pensated for in the fact that it is the “ funny know it all ” who generally re- quires the aid of the life savers before the season is'over. HOWE—TOWEIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours ; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. “Then urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed. that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back. kidneys. liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef- fects following use of liquor. wine or beer. and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urin— ate. The mild aud the extraordinary effect of Swamp—Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

(.‘onn. r Tilitb’ T HAT LEAK. The Morgan 8: Wright single-full quick-repair tire must be regarded as a distinct improvement in bicycle tire construction. It has the following ad- vantages: W’hile punctures in it can be re- paired with plugs, or semi-liquid in- jections, as well as in any othe: single-tube tire, it can be pennanentl} repaired by using the quick-repair strip inside the tire. See cut No. 1 By injecting M. & W. quick-repai: cement through the puncture, anc then pressing down on the tire with the thumb. as in cut No. 2, the repai) No. 2. strip inside is picked up by the cement, thus closing the puncture, as in cut No. 3. The Morgan & Wright single-tube quick-repair tire is guaranteed not porous. This is on account of the way in which it is made. Nearly every rider has heard of ,tires that “leak like a. sieve.” Many tires rot, because water gets into the fabric between the two layers of rubber. The Morgan & Wright fabric is proof against moisture. Everybody knows how comfortable Morgan & Wright tires are, and yet how seldom they puncture. This is due to the fabric. Ask any bicycle dealer whether other tires last aslong as Morgan & Wright tires. Ask. alsod what the Morgan & Wright guarantee means. Morgan & Wright tires are repaired free of charge, at the factory in Chicago or at any of the Morgan & Wright free repair shops, located in the principal cities. N. B.——When you have a. puncture, get right off. Riding a tire flat, when it has a tack or nail in it, may Iamage it considerably.

Sundry colored slips give the unob- serving the idea that a woman’s ward- robe is very large, when in reality one diaphanous frock can in this way be palmed off as several.

A Youthfill Preacher. John Edward De Merrit, of New- port, Neb., although only thirteen years old, is attracting general atten- tion by his ability as a preacher. He has preached at Fort Scott, Kan, Ne- vada. Mo, and many other Kansas and Missouri towns. He was licensed to preach by the Baptist Church of Fort Scott last year, since which time he has been travelling in- the rural districts. He is not yet out of knee- breeches, and has all the airs of a child except his delivery as a pulpit orator. He is said to have read the Bible through a number of times, and, though having attended school but lit- tle, to be well read in theological and general literature. He preaches in churches of all denominations—New $70-21; Tribune. TO RENT. ‘D RENT—Three rooms at '2.“ sweet. 84 per month. FOR SALE. 01’. SA LE—A Goat, two years old and well trnjued to harness.
