acres, lint Franco was not sat shod
in exceedinir F.nglnud by a few acres,
and in 1807 the Paris exp osition bad
assigned for its accommodation forty
acres. No one supposed that this
limit would be surpassed. Put the

fifty acres, excelling all other nations
in the extent of ground occupied.
Now the United States enters the

Who Furnishes the Money
to carry forward this vast enterprise ?
is a question that many cannot
answer. First, subscriptions to tbc
stock amount to $2,506,000; second,
appropriations by Congress and by
Pennsylvania aggregate 8'j,500,(100.
From theso two sources are realize I
85,000,000. Another source of revc
nuc is the money received from men
or cetnpai ics who pay a certain sum
for the exclusive privilege of doing
some kind of business within the ex

the.

3"he Newspaper Best.
A Cnafter From a Western
Daily Telling how Merchants
ar? rDeceivei> in Giving their
Patronage to Cheap-John Ar
rangements Instead of the
NeW34*AP;.R9.
The [historian who writes the com
uiercial history of I he nineteenth ecu
mry must devote a chapter of his
work to the mighty influence of the
modern newspaper upon the world's
business affairs. Investigation, wu
think; will reveal the fact that all
tbc ancient methods of trade have
been revolutionized during the past
fifty years, and that the modern news
paper has done it. "Printers' ink'' is
as necessary nowadays to the success
ful business man as his salesmen are,
and the in ensure of his success is ex
actly cquol to the cxteut of his adver
tising. The day is past when the mor
chunt can sit in his store and expect
that, hia^^gns wdl suffice, to attract
business to his establishment. We
do not need to argue this po?nt with
rcileu'.iug men. Illustrations of the
fact may be found in every city and
cv rv village ol the land.
rite successful business man, the
wealthy merchant, in nine cases out
of ten, is he who has wisely seen the
advaut gC o: advertising and has ad
vertised judiciously. Stewart, who
last year invest* d $S1G 000 in news
paper advertising, Bonner, Babbitt,
iHtryea, Orange Judd, Ii. V. Pierce,
J. C. Aver, who have amassed prince
fortunes, are notable illustrations.
Wo might mention many others
whose names nrc as familiar as house
hold words in every part.of tbc .and,
or we might come nearer home, and
oiler in proof ol this theory tbc evi
dence ol our leading Chicago business
men. Take the directory and search
out a dozen or more of our wealthiest
merchant-:, and it will be found that
the most prominent and wealthiest ol
them will admit that their success
was due chiefly to judicious adver
tising.
As the reader will doubtless infer,
we make a distinction between judi
cious ami reckless advertising. An
important consideration to the adver
tiser is the medium through which be
communicates with the public. Every
city, and especially Cl icngo, is over
run with a class of men whom wc may
not inappropriately term "advertising
sharks"?persons of glib tongue, easy
conscience and amazing "check," who
waylay the merchant at every turn
with "Cheap John" schemes and
"catch penny publications." They
arc not deterred by rebuffs, nor dis
couraged by being kicked downstairs,
for th y persistently return to the at
tack, and often succeed in beguiling
the merchant into paying a large
price for a small space on a fly-leal or
outside cover. It is all money thrown
away. The pamphlet into which bis
"ad." is placed with fifty others is
glanced at for day, perbaps, and then
stacked up in a closet never to he seen
again. The "catch-penny publication"
is usually a 'ittlo hill poster sheet,
ostensibly published in the interest of
some class of business, but really pub
lisho i for the purpose of catching ad
vertisements, and nothing else. They
have little or no circulation, no stand
ing or responsibility, and uro gencr
aly edited by adventurers who c: nn )V
tunke,, a, liviug. by legitimate news
puj)er work. .Money paid for such
advertisements is worse than squand
ered.' It is offering a premium for
blackmailing, and assisting to support
a class of worthless fellows "who prey
on the business community.
The bestand most substantial med
iiitn that is offered the advertiser is
the family newspaper. Day after day,
and week after week, the newspaper
enters nearly every household in the
land, and is always reecived-.?s a wel-.
conic visitor.. iL is read?news, mis
cellany, advertisements and all; and
when it has lost all its power to inter
est the subscriber's ftfmilyY.it often
finds its way to the'fireside of the next
door neighbor, and not infrequently
to far-oil'frieudrf, to announce to those
who still cling to the old homes', ead
what thriving towns, and mighty in
dustries are rising Within the sphere
of its usefulness. In all cases it is a
silent [messenger of the advertiser,
persistently proclaiming tho morits of
his wares, until at last it is Worn out
or destroyed; . Asdong-flsntdaits the
newspaper-is read.1 ' Especially is this
true of tho weekly newspaper?the
home coiin'ry paper which,next to the
Bible, in many a rural household i
looked iipoh with reverence and im
pHcitly relied upon.
The Tiihcs is of the opinion that the
groat city ne wspapers arc inclined to
under-cstimate the powerful influence
which their country contemporaries
sway. Accustomed as wc arc to.deal
rapidly with current events, with
hardly time to thoroughly iiigest the
great topics of to-day before, telegraph
flashes other and perhaps more im
I portnnt events before our., dyes, wc
! have not the time nor the inclination
to read all the matter which thekTeat
dailies lay before its. . In the country
it is. ..different. Themajority.o^tr^T
interior wecklies n'4 ??w produel'tT aftT
carefully compiled from the city dail
I ics. They arc an epitome of the
I news of the world for the week, so ar
ranged as to bj quickly read, ami the
comments arc the result of days of
deliberation.
The Times believes, also, that the
country papers have never" had Jus
thie doue them iu this respect, and it
expresses the opinion of those best
capable of judging, when it says that
the weekly newspapers of the country
tributary to Chicago have far more in
fluence over their readers in propor
tion to their circulation thaudiavc the
majo ity of large city dailies.
Within tho past twelve years there
has been a vast improvement made in
the country newspaper?particularly
in respect to the care with which all
the Hews of the day is gathered and
edited, and the literary ability dis
played in its columns, which relieves
the provincial press from tho lew oh
jectiotis that have been heretofore
ur cd against it, and has accord od to
it higher dignity, extended its in flu
encc, and gr> ally augmented its
power for good. The typographical
appearance of the country journal of
to-day is perfect; the display and
classification of the advertisements
tasty; the quality of the paper used
and the printing far superior to that
of its city con cht po caries.
