Some Facts Which to Them to 4 i :l .The late A IT. Stewart once stated, as the result of his experience that 'v-'."'; ;': ;'r "When a business man comes to the conclusion that he CANNOT AFFORD to eacpend during the year, in JUDICIOUS ADVERTISING, an amount equal to ONE-H AltF. or at least ONE QUARTER of the sum lie pays annually for rent, he may VERY SAFELY make up his mind that it is HIGH TIME for him to MOVE HIS BUSINESS to CHEAPER QUARTERS." Advertising is strictly a matter of business. It is simply an investment and one in which, as in many other things, both safe and foolish ventures may be made. All methods of advertising are not equally, valuable many are absolutely worthless. Among these latter may be safely classed, without an exception, the thousand and one devices by which plausible travelling canvassers seek to wheedle money from the business world. To a greater or less extent all men believe in advertising. - The only trouble is that few take the time or labor to investigate and convince themselves as to the best and most profitable way to do it. The result is4Jiat too often they are deceived into paying money for that which a moment's reflection would convince them was valueless and then, because they: receive no returns, condemn a. system for that which was their own fault. In nine cases out of ten the man who will positively refuse to advertise in his home paper because "he does not believe in it" will be the first to faLVa victim to the representations and argu ments advanced in favor of an' "Illustrated Time Card'! or a '.'Self-registering Hotel Blotter." v The most successful dealers all unite in saying that the newspaper is the very best medium for advertising purposes. But while this is true as a general state ment it is also true that all newspapers are not equally valuable for that purpose The worth of any publication as an adver tising medium is exactly proportionate to the extent of its circulation and the class of persons by whom it is read. Space in the columns of some newspapers would be-jcjear as? a gift--in others cheap at almost any Price. As a rule publishers are very free to advance claims to the '"largest circulation'? or cutation'but extremely chary of furnish ing any detailed information by which to substantiate their statements. In all such cases their "claims" may be o6t down as idle vaporing. Papers which actually have large, circulations are; always able and willing to satisfy advertisers as to the correctness of their claims. 7- ". n . rL the'presetiff tinie;the jTwRNAi is . able: to offer, greater advantages to ! radrertisers than any other paper iil! this District.

From various causes, however, suspicion rested upon them and on the following day, when arrested, a little perauaaion induced them both to "squeal," a course ot action which showed a laok ot nerve that will forever prevent then from achieving any eminence in tbeir thieving firofession.

"The announcement has been wade that the ''Ladles Aid Society'' is to be revived this present winter and is to have its rooms somewhere on State street. While it is undoubtedly: true that in .former years, this organization has been i the means of relieving ' much distress, it is. also true that many complaints have been made in regard to the manner in which they extended tbeir assistance. ' Whether the charge is true or not, it b,as at least been claimed ' that great partiality was shown and that those toward whom the managers had reason to have . personal feelings of friendship were benefitted to the exclusion ot others no less deserving but less fortunate in other words that the donations of the charitable public were diverted into a limited number ot indiridua channels. Without dWpusaing at present the causes wbicu gave rise tn this imprest sion it is nevertheless well enough to oall the Society's attention to the ract that it exists and to suggest the propriety of keeping such a record of the disposition of articles sent in for distribution as would show It to be unfounded if it is so.

"The OHmremn Jien Wutrt.' ':", These words caught our eye as we were lazily glancing through The North and West illustrated, and tbey caused us to long for a trip to the home ot the "plney woods.", Without much thought as to where we should stop, we took our start from the good city of Louisville, Ky., and soon found ourselves at Chicago. There we found but one route that could give us what we were looking' for, and tound that to be the new Chicago, St. Pant & Minne apolis Line, that led through prairie and meadow, through hill and valley, along great lakes and streams, and finally into tbe depths ot tbe pine forests of Wiscon sin, and so on to St. Paul & Minneapolis. Baying our tickets, we started, and left the Canal and Kinzie streets depot of the Chicago & North-Western Railway, and passed through many pleasant villages, such as Irving Park, Desplaines, Barring, ton. Crystal Lake and Woodstock, and reached Harvard, thence to Betoit, Han over and Madison, where we are 140 miles trom Chicago, and at tbe capital or Wisconsin, a city ol over fifteen thousand people. The city is pleasantly situated on an isthmus about three-fourth of a mil wide, between Lakes Mendota and Moa. ona, in tbe centre of a broad vallev, sur rounded by heights from whicb it can be seen at a distance of several miles. Lake Mendota lies northwest ol tbe town, is six miles long and tour miles wide,with clean gravely shores, and- a depth sufficient for tbe navigation of steamboats. Lake Mon ona is somewhat smaller. At tfO miles from Chicago, and oi; miles horn Madison, we reached the celebrated Devil's Lake. This is a beautiful body of water, sur rounded by precipitous mountains on every side, except at two points,one beln at the southern end, where the rallroaU enters tbe lake basin, and the other at the northern end, wnere the railroad fiuds exit trom the basin ot the lake. On every, side ot the lake you see "rock piled on rock' in every conoeivabie form, aud iu immense columns, plllars,pilea and niass es of very great magnitude and height. The railroad runs along the shore of Uu , lake on a bed that was literally bins ted out of tbe sides of tbe mountain. From the oar-windows all the beauties of this wonderful and weirdly mysterious region can readily be see a. This - was the home ot Mmuawaukene, a beautiful but unto, tunate Indian Maiden, and many legends, are related of ber by the simple hoartea and kindly people ot the vicinity. This lake is a favorite summer resort, "and to it tbe people for m my miles around come tor picnicing, sailing, boating, fishing and other sports- At Baraboo you reach the Baraboo river,and trom thence pass a!our its valley for many miles.
