“In all the land, range up, range down, Is there ever a place so pleasant and sweet ?” THE 1000 ISLANDS. There may be somewhere on the earth a more delightful region than that of the Thousand Islands, but if there is, it has not been discovered. It is as fine as the Bay of Naples, with no danger of being buried in hot ashes. There are 2,000 picturesque Islands scattered along the twenty-five miles of one of the most beautiful rivers in the world. You can find out a great deal regarding it in No. 10 of the “Four-Track Series,” “The Thousand Islands,” of the St. Lawrence River issued by the NEW YORK CENTRAL. A copy will be mailed free on receipt of a two-cent stamp by George H. Daniels, General Passenger Agent, Grand Central Station, New York.

Perhaps your first impulse will be to pass the design with slight notice, since it serves for an advertisement. But do not adver- tisements serve the public? Are they not suggestive of real wants, and usefal in filling them? Let us suppose there were no advertisements in JUDGE, would its columns be more interesting, or more useful? You might as well remove the directory from the vestibule of a building given over to many kinds of business, as to withdraw the advertising columns from JUDGE, or any other periodical. These columns are of special value in many instances. JUDGE has capable artists who are willing to prepare designs for advertisers without extra charge, and these designs, produced at considerable cost, are useful in conveying ideas to JUDGE'S readers which plain text could not present so clearly. The case in point illustrates this, Here is shown pictorially the sug- gestions : These two young Americans wear good hats, clothes, shoes, sus- penders, shirts, collars, cuffs and cravats ; they carry up-to-date dress-suit cases, and just now are exchanging stories in the lobby of a first-class hotel, such as they always patronize, Happening to meet in front of the news-stand they will presently purchase copies of JUDGE and LESLIE'S WEEKLY, which are very prominently displayed. In LESLIE'S WEEKLY they will find the latest war news and an illustrated panorama of the affairs of the entire world, and incidentally inside information as to what to do and what not to do in financial matters. In JUDGE will be found pictures and fun to drive away the blues— which the drummer gets when far from home—while in the advertising columns they will get the latest information as to the best razors, shaving soaps, tollt articles, clothing of all sorts, railroads, hotels, srnes, spits, ale, beer, cigars, tobacco, cigarettes, eve men re or desire. Ask any commercial man and he will tell you that JUDGE'S stories and jokes are an essential part of his outfit. We are not soliciting advertisements of lingerie, but if this should catch the eye of any advertiser who has a worthy article to sell to men we are in the market for our share of the business, and will in every honor- able way try to make the advertising columns of our periodicals pay such an investor.
