The Lecture. ,
Ex-CSov. Bob Trlor, o( Tennessee,
delivered his inimitable lecture, "The
Fiddle and the Bow," to a large and
appreciative audience at the Opera

magnificent effort of the kiud ever
heard in Kosciusko. The lecturer is
a perfect master of human nature,
playing on every string of the heart.

Circular AdvertiKiiix.
As we saiil last week, all advertising
pays if directed bv a person who is at
all sane. Advertising bv circulars or
(lodgers undoubtedly pays; but we be
lieve the best result is obtained when
it is done as a supplement to newspa
per advertising. It one or the o'.her
is to be abandoned, the shrewd adver
tiser will prefer the newspaper every
time. A good newspaper is read on an
average by live people; but the adver
tiser by circulars is doing mighty well
if he is sure of one reader to ev
ery circular. Take an instance, A has
$:! to spend for advertising. He goes
to the printiug shop and spends thi
amount for 1000 large dodgers, and
hires him a boy to distribute them at a
cost of ten cents. The boy throws
them in wagons, and down on the
pavements; bauds them to people, some
of whom read then, some put them
in their pockets, and some toss them
away unread; the boy may thee chuck
a tew hurdred of them under the side
walk to get rid of them. That part of
A's circulars which are read pay him;
the others are worthless. R also bus
sm to spend fur advertising. He spends
some little time in preparing an ut
(ractivetd that will appeal to tlie ne.':
ule and then troe? and buvs s!v inebo'.
