The. "Ad" Was Bead.
Through a tyiographical error
Heavenrich & Co., the shoe dealers,
have beeu brought to acknowledge
that their advertisement in The
Journal must be pietty generally
read. On Wednesday they advertised
in Ihe Journal that they would sell
on Thursday any pair of $5 shoes in
the fctore for $3.50, provided the pur
chaser brought a copy of the adver
tisement to the store. In lifting the
forms to the press the figure 3 drop
ped out of the $3.50, leaviug it 50 cents
for the $5 shoes. The accident was
not noticed uutil the eutire edition
had beeu sent out. Now comes the
fun. Heavenrich & Co. are a firm
that do exactly as they agree, and the
result wi s necessarily embarrassing.
A reporter of The Journal entered
the store at 2:30 yesterday and found
it crowded with people from the west
side and South Saginaw, each with
the little coupons cut from The
Journal, while the ever geuial Mana
ger Flurry with a double handful of
coupons and a flush ou his handsome
couutenance was endeavoring to ex
plain the mistake and showing the
figures quoted ia other papers.
There's the man that's responsible for
all this," he said as lie spied The
Journal man ; "be can explaiu how
it happened." It was soon made
clear to the people in the store how it
happened, and theu they saw that a
discount of $1 50 on $5 was the biggest
thing they bad struck and they, be
gan buying, aud each one when they
left had a pair of regular $5 shoes that
cost them only $3 50. Mr. Flurry has
uotyet said whether he would bring
action against The Journal for dam
age to his nerves or not, but he is con
vinced that people read advertise
ments iu The Journal. The fact is
The Journal circulates largely among
a class who study its advertising col
umns from motives of economy, and
save by so doing many dollars every
year. Saginaw (Mich.) Journal.

A Stranger's Mistake.
On the first Monday in January,
wheu the mole buyers and the mule
sellers and the mules had possession
of the public square, a stranger in
the city approached : a merchant of
Columbia and the following conver
sation ensued. . Stranger: "I under
stand the Mule King of the South
lives in thia county." "Ye-s" said
the merchant. "That brick building
lu the centre is his stable, I suppose,"
said the stranger. "Oh.no," replied
the merchant, "that is our Court
House." "You are Joking?" querried
the stranger. "Indeed I am not,"
blushlngly answered the merchant
"Welt neither was I," rejoined the
Btraagar, "It was aft uohtit mistake"

ing to get it. aud yet when The Her
ald offers bonds and coupons, (which
are nothing more than orders) on live

This is to state that having made a

in part payment of goods purchase 1
for cash, weQfully intended to take in
same ou plos aud potato planters,
but the State Agents having beeu
notified by'our competitors that we
"were cutting aud slashing prices" on
these articles, tbey notified us. that
we must not accept coupons ou these
goods. Will say however that sine?
the first of January the prices on our
celebrated Olive Chill Plows have
been reduced from 10 to 20 per cent.
As these articles form a very small
part of our business, we have . niifde
them exceptions. All parties having
these bonds are sute to get what they
say on the face, and will save ten
cents on the dollar by buying their
goods from us; and but for the inter
ference of our competitors we would
have saved the farmers of Maury

plows and potato planters.

THE HARVARD QUARTETTE.
This justly celebrated company of
ladies aud gentlemen made their ini
tial appearance in our city last Mon
day eveuiug, aud have left behind
them the memory of a night full of
sweet aud melodious straius of un
surpassed music. Their audience
should have beeu large enough to
pack the house; but small as it was
it was so appreciative aud so encour
aged the performers that they sur
passed themselves and sang better
than they would otherwise have
done.
Why is it that such fiist-class at
tractions as this one is, do not draw
better in refined and cultivated Co
lumbia? Such 6nging, such sweet
strains, such harmony, has never be
fore beeu heard iu our city, aud yet
of our hundreds of music lovers
scarcely 150 were present.
Tle musical numbers by the quar
tette were all so artistically reudertd
that our feeble ellbrts to describe
them would be futile. No flaw or in
harmonious sound was heard during
the whole evtuiisg, and their rendi
tion of "Nearer My God to Thee"
called us away for the time being
from this sordid earth to bask
awhile In the sunshine ot perfect
peace aud love.
The audieuce was captivated by the
splendid bass voice of Mr. Buruham
wbicli was one of the pleasures of the
evening. He sang with perfect ease,
aud showed that study aud practice
made his voice a perfect oue. Many
wer ; disappointed not to hear him iu
a solo.
Mr. Paine iu his "Tyrolean" dis
played a llexible and well-trained
voice of remarkabje sweetness.
Miss Lufkiu is mistress of both the
cornet and piauo, and we cau ouly
regret that she was not encouraged
more than she was for tier remark
able ellbrts should have deserved
more applause.
The recitations by Miss Florence
were excellent. Her "Echo aud
Ferry" and "Robert O'L'ucoln" were
just marvelous.
The closing piece, the humorous
cantata entitled "The Grasshopper,"
was highly amusing aud much pleas
ure was given the audience be
fore the hopper was finally "gathered
in" hy the gobbler.
Ou the whole the perfoitnance
eclipses anything we have seen thus
far iu'our Opera House, and this com
pany should be encouraged to return,
for if anything can stir up one's bet
ter self and make oue feel better and
happier, it is such harmonies as the
Harvard Quartette give.

Decline of the Non-Advertising Clas.
It is curious to watch how old
thiugs are passing away, and "all
things becoming new." Iu not one
only, but in many trades, pursuits
and professions, methods have been
completely revolutionised, and it has
become tbe f.iot that such means as
used to bring success iu the olden
time are now obsolete, discarded and
wholly lacking iu utility. Take the
great daily newspaper of to-day tor
an example. Who would be satisfied
with the papers of even thirty years
ago, tinted as they were in their
comparatively small circulations on
the lumbering presses of that pariod?
I he perfecting of the stereotyimr a
art brought in a new era of uewspaier
enterprise, and now circulations of
two or three hundred thousand are
printed on the fastest machines of the
day iu an hour or two the machines
being increased In number as re
quired, and the stereotyping process
being equal to lue manuiacture or, as
many duplicate pages as may be
ueeded.
It is an age of ntir. Men must
move, and they must make tneir
bmincHH move. I he man wno doesn't
advertise in the newspapers Is a back
number. Men regard him as a curi
osity a relic, and the boys ask him
where he got his hat. He is behind
the times. The race to which he be
longs is nearly extluct. The. adver
tiser has most or the business the
relic used to have, and will soou have
the rest. And where will the rello
be theu? What can he do but to re
tire from the iiiiinual struggle, and
join his ancestors in 'hat silent city
