A copy of an old New York news-

30. 1885, was found sesterday hid-
den in the Gurlcy building by work-
men emzagcd in tearing down— the

Yellow with age, the paper bears,
mule witness to its long burial. It.
contains four pages. each having
nine columns. and the page: are
larger than those of modern news-
papers.
Brodern "Scareheads" and large
display type for news stories were
evidently not in \oguc at the time

paper is- well-balanced though.
carrying a good deal of interesting
and well-written news. an editorial
rultllllll. several special articles, ad-
vertisements which but but faint
resemblance to modern ones. and so
on.
One of the best written and most
interesting stories in the paper is
that describing the draping of the
funeral car that was to carry the
bo_dv of General U. S. Grant from
Mt Gregor. N Y.. to New York
city, and other details following the
death of the president.
A notice on the "masthead" or
the paper showed that it had been
published since 1797 in New York
City. The paper will be saved by the
\v0rl}men who discovered it.

cation of Government bonds to a.
va'lue of “about $1, 000, 000."
"I've never said that hundreds of.
millions 6: dollars‘ worth of bonds

Brewer. “I have insisted that I

Brewer read 11. long statement in
reply to a. recent Treasury report
which declared there was no thund-

insisted he- had spent nearly three
years investigating conditions at the.
bureau and had uncov ed “both.
carelessness and fraud,” ad could
prove that-"many Government sc-

There had been glaring irregularlo

Liggett’s Drug Store
H old i ng Semi-an-
nual Profit Sharing
Inducement to Cus-
tomers
This unusual. distinctive type of
sale was originated ’by the nggett
Drug Stores.
The plan, in brief, is that you buy
one article at its. regular everyday
price, and obtain another of the
same article at one cent additional.
Among the selected list of mer-
chandlse are included such needed
things as complexion preparations,
household‘ remedies, candles, etc.
Even though a persbn may not be
able to use two of an article. by com-
binnlg one's purchases with neigh-
bors or friends, a. saving of almost
half is effected.
This feature sale is conductedonly
twice each year. each sale lasting
three days. The nggett people say
that the values are made possllhc
only because most of the products
are manu cturcd in their own tac-
torics at a. minimum cost, and they
are willing to take small profits be-
cause they consider these One Cent
Sales of tremendous advertising
value in bringing new customers to
their stores.
