TYPEWRITERS
GIVEN AWAY
The Emerson Typewriter Company
Woodstock, 111., have recently
ffiven away over 400 of the highest
grade, wholly visible Emerson Type
writers made in the world. They
have gone into every state and terri
tory in the United States. There may
he some in your town. They are giv
ing them away everywhere to men,
women, boys and girls over 18 years
of age, on surprising liberal condi
tions.
If you could make any use of a
•100.00 typewriter, providing it did
not cost you even one cent, then in
a letter or on a postal card addressed
to Frank L. Wilder, President,
Woodstock. 111., simply say, “Mail me
all your Free Offers, ” and by return
mail you will receive their Free Of
fers, the. names of over 400 who have
recently received typewriters free, and
you will learn on what easy condi
tions you can get one of their type
writers free right away.
The Emerson Typewriter is one of
the highest grade, wholly visible
typewriters made in the world. Many
who have used the “EMERSON" and
other makes pronounce the “EMER
SON" suj)erior to any $100.00 type
writer on the market. It is a wholly
visible machine, has every new, up
to-date feature, looks like other high
grade $100.00 typewriters, though it
sells regularly for less and on terms
of $1.00 down and 10 cents a day un
til paid for. The “EMERSON” has j
every new improvement, universal j
keyboard, back spacer, tabulator, two- !
color ribon, everything the best: is;
the ideal machine for beginners as j
well as for the most expert typists j
and stenographers; just the typewriter
for the smallest or largest office.
If you could possibly make any use I
of a high grade typewriter, even !
though it didn't cost you one cent of:
money, then be sure, on a postal card j
or in a letter addressed to “Frank j
1.. Wilder, President, Woodstock,
111., " say, “Mail me your Free Of
fers.”

PARIS IN PROTEST
Ugly Advertising Posters Meet
With Disapproval.
Famed Beauty of the Streets of the
Gay Capital Disappearing Because
bf Greed That Dominates
Commercialism.
The beauty of Paris! Do not im
agine that Paris has a patent on good
taste. Recently a completely Parisian
concern of the Boulevard painted Us
entire front screaming red! Mme.
Roland’s historic house has a side
wall, high, exposed, and one of the
department stores spread pink and
green letters on It, five feet high. The
extensive building operations of the
Boulevard have raised up immense
hoardings. All are covered with pos
ters, and a fourth of those posters are
in doubtful taste.
Can what is grotesque, comic, ugiy
or aesthetically shocking make a good
advertisement? The general practice
of greater Paris advertisers seys no,
but leaves the field of “shock” ail the
more free to the small and hungry
who strain for effect. Nevertheless
competition tempts the great advertis
ers to novelty, and ugliness is novelty
—in Paris. So the beauty of the
Streets trembles in the balance.
The French government wishes to
encourage art in street advertise
ments. When pictorial posters are ar
tistic the public taste is soothed and
uplifted; foreign visitors find the
beautiful streets free from a note of
discord. But note the native poor are
even more concerned.
“The street is the parlor of the
poor,” says the poet Rostand. “The
rich in their automobiles can hurry
through dirty streets and shut their
eyes to advertising vulgarity, but
when the poor have an hour of leisure
the street is their parlor, salon, mu
seum. Why hang its walls with ug
liness and banality?” The author of
“Chantecler” as advertising specialist
need not astonish you; the astronomer
Poincare, cousin of the prime min
ister, has even analyzed the princi
ples.
“Pictorial advertising has two ob
jects,” says the sublime mathemati
cian. “First, to attract attention; sec
ond, to fix an obsession, a haunting of
the mind. But in order for the obses
sion to be fruitful the memory must
connect the advertised object with the
Fountain in Paris Square.
haunting picture and certain other
details, as its use, its place of sale,
etc. There should be no subconscious
effort to forget, as when the impres
sion is ugly, distasteful or merely
banal.”
Whence the mathematician con
cludes for simple beauty and harmony
to produce lasting returns in posters.
Also, if posters be really admitted to
the coming Salon, such philosophy of
advertising will become part of the
art critic's baggage. The merits, not
of Vasseur’s massage eroam or Mil
lard's mincemeat, but the obsessing
beauty of Roubille’s or I^eandre’s pos-!
ters of them v ill obtain solemn dis- j
cussion—to the equal advantage of I
Vasseur’s and Millard’s sales! It will
be well worth while to order an art
poster.
IN THE SEA IS INDEPENDENCE
Ocean Is Typical of Existence, Jules
Verne Said, Supernatural and
Wonderful.
The sea Is everything. It covers
seven-tenths of the terrestrial globe.
Its breath is pure and healthy. It is
an immense desert, where man Is
never lonely, for he feels life stirring
on all sides.
The sea is only (he embodiment of
a supernatural and wonderful ex
istence. It is nothing but love and
emotion: it is the "living infinite.” In
fact. Nature manifests herself in it bv
her three kingdoms, mineral, vege
table and animal. The sea is the vast
reservoir of Nature. The globe began
with, the sea, so to speak; and who
knows it will not end with it? In it
is supreme tranquillity. The sea does
not belong to despots. ITi>on its sur
face men can still exercise unjust
laws, fight, tear one another to pieces
and be carried away with terrestrial
horrors. Hut at 30 feet below its level
their reign ceases, their influence is
quenched and their power disappears.
Live in the bosom of the waters!
There only is independence!—Jules
Verne.

Veteran of Editorial Ranks Is Dr.
George Brown.
Founder of the First Free State News
paper Published in Kansas—Re
members the Exciting Days
of Border Warfare.
There Is living today in Illinois a
I man who played a large part in the
making of Kansas history. He is Dr.
George Brown, who came to Lawrence
in 1854 and there established the Her
ald of Freedom, the first free state
newspaper ever published in Kansas, i
Today Dr. Brown is almost the last
of the men who fought for Kansas in
that bloody time before the war, risk
ing their lives to uphold a principle
they believed sacred—the principle of
human freedom, says the Kansas City
Star.
Dr. Brown is ninety-two years old—
In the late evening of bis life—but he
still remembers vividly the exciting
events of the border warfare days,
when he published the Hi laid of Free
dom from a log cabin in Lawrence,
writing against slavery with a fear
lessness that made him the object of
deep hatred from ihe southerners,
who were equally determined to make
Kansas a slate state. So it happened,
when Lawrence was raided in i860,
that one of the first buildings to I
which the torch was applied was the j
office of the Herald of Freedom.
In the fall of 1854 he removed to
Lawrence, Kan., ami erected a house,
the timber of which was cut and
hewed by his printers and sawed by
the New England Emigrant Aid com
pany’s mill. It was the first lumber
sawed by the company’s mill, and
when he had finished his building at
once he began to publish the Herald
of Freedom, which helped to make
Kansas a free state. This paper, D.
W. Wilder said, was “the most per
fect in character, typography and gen
eral make-up of any paper I ever saw.”
Governor Geary was present upon an
occasion when the stars and stripes
were raised to the summit of the staff
over the Herald building and made a
brief speech to the assembled multi

the Herald of Freedom at -Law

tude. Mrs. Sara T. D. Robinson, the
widow of ex-Governor Robinson, sajs
that Dr. Brown “wrote its editorials,
carefully reviewed whatever appeared
in its columns, excluded from Its ad
vertising pages every offensive mat
ter. declined, even for double com
pensation, to advertise the sale of in
toxicants, ever warred upon the
wrong in all its forms and that his
principal enemies were lawbreakers.”
During the turbulent days on the
border he was imprisoned for cham
pioning the cause of human freedom.
He was not disturbed, but lived to see
the principles he aiboc.ded triumph.
PEARL FISHING IN SCOTLAND

It is a common belief that, pearl
oysters are found only in ocean beds,
and perhaps it may be a surprise to
some to learn that pearl fishing is ex
tensively carried on in several Scot
tish rivers and If the pearls there
found are not quite so fine a. those
got from the ocean, they are in con
siderable demand and can command
good prices. On the K’v r Tny, 40
miles from Us mouth, qui - a small
trade is done in fresh w . t pearls,

himself with a long bamboo pole split

very slowly and is of considerable
depth. Betting down his "pail’’ a few
inches into the water so ii:i:p can

the objects on the bed of the river, he
sculls along until he comes to a clump

long pole he v. cures one of them in
