BUSINESS men in thriving young cities ot the west do not over estimate the benefits of judlctous advertising. Every good advertiser in a town is more or less a benefactor to the whole people. It is not an unfrequent occur­ ence for business men to come to the Inter Ocean exchange room, or send for exchanges for the sole purpose of studyin (the life and enterprise of tbe various marts o! trade, "which they judge by Che advertising columns of tbe local press. It is just suoh enter­ prise and business that has built up Chicago, and it will benefit a commun­ ity wherever found. What we under­ stand by judicious advertising is not blow or bluster, but facts, which save buyers both time and money. In these days a city without advertising is dead, no matter what its wealth and resources may be,--inter Ocean. Modern Woodmen of Amerloa. OBJECTS.

THS FAIB. Our little city has been crowded to Its at moot during the week, On Monday exhib­ itors were coming with stock and articles, aad the arrivals and entries were continuous natil Wednesday morning, when the books were closed. The show of horses as they appeared in re­ view beforethe grand stand called forth from our distinguished visitors well merited praise, both as to extent and quality. The cattle exposition was good and admirable in quality, bat net as extensive as last year. And right here 1 improve the opportonit y to redeem my pledge to the ladies In the fine art gallery, that in their behalf I would thank George Abbott ft Sons for the use in the ladies'department of the Polled Angns entry books and cards which they eeuld not have had if Messrs. Abbotts had been exhib­ itors. The farm and garden department exceeded all expectation and demonstrated that veg. etable life had not been scorched out when the fall rains appeared. The floral display was creditable and the fine art immense. The display of su bstantial and fancy cook- ®ry» AS well as of substantial and fancy wear, ing apparel and needle work, did honor to the women of McHenry County, The display of mercantile fabrics was good, bat aot as extensive as it ought to have been. The display of paintings was good, bat for want of proper background and light, due credit coatd not be awarded the artiste. Mr. and Mrs. Wyant made a pleasing dis­ play ot articles from their museum. Musical instruments and sewing machines by Derry Bros, and M. Sherman were attract- ive features. One who feels an interest in these magnifi­ cent displays in doors and oat, and views in ite proper light the poor accommodations af­ forded by the stalls for stock, and by Floral Hall for the exhibitions there, he pauses and wonders why with the large and extensive patronage of our fairs better accommodations could not be had. Mr. Grow whose liberal hand has done much for the society said to the writer hereof, while we were watching the races: "If we could only get ten acres of ground adjoining on the east and improve our buildings, cattle stalls, Ac., I woald be will. Ing and would gladly contribute several hun. dred dollars to the enterprise." The plausl. ble assertion is frequently heard that there is not a foot of land in McHenry county that is not enhanced in value by the enterprise begotten through the Instrumentality of our oounty fairs. If this be true, and to one who has watched our county interests for years it appears truthful, why will not our board ot supervisors buy the land now owned and needed by the society, pay off the debt and lease the grounds to the society while used by the McHenry County Agricultural Board as a fair ground. The Board consists of all who purchase membership tickets and hence is not a siock company. The grounds sontin- |e to be enriched by the manure which is not jtliowed to be drawn aw*y but is spread over the grounds each year after the Fair is over. Thus if the Board should "go uy the board'• it would not be a losing investment, because It would be worth all it cost, and if the Board continues, It is the citizens of the county who are beneilted, or in other words, the county supplies the county with this mu&h.needed enterprise. But to return to the exhibition: The names of exhibitors are not at hand, but it can be set down as certain, Fred Hatch, Frank dole and Fred Oolison, with their Short Horns and Hager with his Holstoins, were on hand and vieing with each other hon­ orably and zealously for the prises. There is no desire to be partial, but only the names of Hanly Bros., and G. W. Young are at hand among the many extensive es. hibitors of horses, There was one department forced upon the admiration of everybody by the industry of exhibitors aud that was farm machinery. T. J. Dacy and J. D. Donovan were on hand early and the hum of their machinery could be heard at ail hours of the day. each display­ ing to tbe best advantage possible the bene­ ficial traits of his machine. And as tne drouth has cut short the todder crop, the great aim of farmers seems te be to utilise every item of fodder gathered. Taking ad­ vantage of this idea, both Dacy and Donovan weroWn hand with their powers and feed outters, and judging by the number marked "sold" during the day Friday, their labors were net in vain. The number so marked was to have been furnished your correspond - ent, but is not at band and the mall is about to close. On Wednesday the rain rendered the grounds unpleasant. But the attendance was large and the wedding ceremony very interesting, but when the Rev. Mr. Beggess took the bride's hand from that of the groom and saluted hor with the first kiss it occur­ red to the writer that when be gets married in that public way, or in fact in any other way, the minister who gets the first kiss will need to be lively. There wai fault found, and not without reason, with certain gambling Institutions which were admitted to the grounds, and when the managers beoame aware of their true character thoy were not stow to have tliem pulled. Another criticism was that there was too much long speech*making, all of which the writer enjoyed very much, but as the great mass could not hear, they grew restless and perhaps not unreasonably so. It put the speakers to a dlsadvantagoand ap. peared uncourteoas to be interrupted by the band, but as it Is unknown who was to blame, criticism will not be indulged hywin- iMd yoa ever Happen to Notm • ' That luok often makes us ov«f con­ fident. That the lien that doesn*t lay eats the most corn. That tbe truest story Isn't always the moet belisved. That you can not judge a man by bis own recommendation. That the fish that got away Is.al­ ways tbe biggest of the lot. That a fire most always comes after an insurance policy has lapsed. That the man who drinks tbe most hasn't always the reddest nose. That good credit in business is often better than a fat ba ak account. That every lane has a turn, but some of us get mighty tired before wo got to the end of it. That when we havn't a penny we waut tafly; when wo have a penny we want a house, aod when wo have <>neugh to buy a house, we want tbe earth. • The Chicago Inter-Stato Kxposition.
