Antiquity ef Shorthand.
Shorthand is apt to be looked upon
as an essentially modern art. The
predecessors of PItinun?Byrom in the
eighteenth century. Mason in the sev
enteenth?are dim and distant figure*
beyond which it seems useless to ven
ture. Cicero dictated his orations to
his freedman, T. Tulllus Tiro, and was
inconsolable when temporarily depriv
ed of his services. He complained in
a letter to u friend that, while "Tiro
takes down whole phrases in a few
signs, Splntharus (his provisional sub
stitute! only writes In syllables." We
need not however, suppose tlptt the
"notne Tlronianae" were actually in
vented by tbe freedmun In question.
As M. Guenln points out. the Romans
created very few of the arts of peacc.
contenting themselves. as a rule, by
copying from the Greeks. M. Guenin.
however, indicates tbe bonks of the
Nile as the cradle of the art.?T. P.'s
London Weekly.
A Cen?volont Censor.
A trio of young ladies spent some
weeks last year at an ont of the way
village in tbe mountain region. They
found the village postmaster a quaint
old character, whose ways were as orU
glnal as they were startling, so that
the dally trip to the postotlice became
a real event.
"Is there any mail for us. majorV
usked one of the young ladles as she
appeared at the window one morning.
"No; they ain't a thing for you all
this mawnln*. Miss Mary." was the re
ply. "They wasn't nothln' come for
you but a letter that looked like adver
tising, an' so I opened It, and sure
enough it was Jest some advertisement
about somethin' or other, and I says
to myself, ssys I. -Now. Miss Mary
don't want to tote such stuff as that
home with her.' and so I throwed It In
the waste box."?Youth's Companion.
Snuff snd s Crook.
Robert rinkcrtou once told a story
of bis father, the founder of the Ue- |
tective agency, which illustrates the
elder Pinkerron's caution. A noted
criminal wa? detained in Pinkerton's
Chicago oGce. The elder PInkerton
left the room and when he returned
took the precaution of holding a re
volver la frout of him ready for use.
He saw tlic* criminal standing by tht
doer with a snuffbox ho had picked
up from Pinkerton's desk in h'.s har.d
"This i> guod snuff," uffab!y re
marked the crook as he took a sniff.
"For the eves or the nose7" asked
PInkerton. who knew that the crook
had intended to blind him in an effort
to escape.
"Well." remarked :he criminal. "I'm
sorry to say that tbo nose gets it this
time."
Appiua Claudius.
Applua Claudius. surniimed Caecu*
(tbe blind), was a Roman statesman
w ho lived during the third century be
fore the Christian era. He was a Ro
man censor. 312 to 308. and consul.
307 to 20G. He commenced tbe Ap
Plan way and completed tbe Applan
aqueduct. From bis Koman Juris
prudence. oratory, grammar and Latin
prose date their beginning. He abol
ished tbe limitation of tbe fnll right
of citizenship to landed proprietor#.
In bis old age be is said to have be
come blind, whence bis cognomen
"Caecus." He was tbe author of
works In both prose and verse, of
which almost nothing Is known.

...
The buying public has a
distinct interest^ in whether
or not a merchant adver
tises.
For it's an economic truth
that only the merchant who
advertises can afford to off
er actual values?to make
consessions that are really
competitive?to do business
on the smallest possible per
sale profit.
The buying public has
come to know this, to know
that the buyer has a direct
interest in the question of
whether the seller advertis
es. The buying public has
come to'know that the buy
er pays the penalty of pat
ronizing the non-progres
sive store, where a small
volume of sales makes large
per sale profits inevitable.
It has come, therefore, to
be a matter of personal in
terest to a prospective buy
er as to whether he or she
is dealing with a progres
sive or-with a non-progres
sive merchant. This person
al interest is a purse-inter^
est no we didn't say "p
onalw interest; and therefore
comes nearer ho
the mere matter
to buy
