“ JUDGE’S” SILVER ANNIVERSARY. HE reader whose migratory glance tukes in the less obtrusive features of his paper has noted the numbers which eekly appear in the upper left corner of he front page. For some time past he as seen the legend, * Vol. 51," and the umbers annexed have been creeping on e the nineties of the twelfth hundred. on September 15th the thirteen-hun- redth number of JUDGE will appear. Chat means the full measure of twenty- ve years, Owing to some extra num- ers published in the meantime, we are ver a month ahead of our calendar anni- ersary, however, for the first JUDGE was published October 2gth, 1881, By a compromise between the number and the calendar anniversary we have chosen the mid-week of October for some exercises by which to mark with appropriate hon- ors an event of such consequence to the whole family of mankind and any others who may be interested. Twenty-five years is not a long time as the world goes, but it is a respectable antiquity for 2 periodical—and a good starting point for a dignified and honorable longevity. WHAT MAKES US PROUD. A good deal has happened in this neck of the woods since JupGE began, and more still in the minor and lesser parts of the earth. JUDGE, of course, points with pride to the fact that the world has come to look very different and in parts much grander since he began his weekly visitations to the intelligent (and other) classes. We claim nothing—but there are the facts: Up to October 2gth, 1881, there had been some progress, a few histories had been written, «nd the Tweed ring had lately been exposed. But that was all. Civilization was spo- tadie, reform local and timidly experi- mental, and the muck-rake unknown, ‘Then JUDGE appeared, and see what hap- pened, Everybody noted the changes at began to occur, To-day, the United States—aceording to Mr. Joseph Cannon, one of our best-informed publicists—is, for shecr success, like Sherman said war was. We make no claims, but we ask the reader to think back over the world down to 1881 and then see how different everything has been since and then fix in his mind the historic fact that Jupce began in 1881. . . . . . These stars represent an intermission of five minutes to allow tte reader to think this matter over candiuly. We be- lieve he must have reached a conclusion nthat time, All we ask of the reqder is to be frank and fair. “JUDGE” WILL CELEBRATE. Naturally, JUDGE will celebrate. Noth- ng showy or spectacular, for we have no esire to boast, but in a rational and juiet way we will honor our anniversary. October 13th will most likely be the date f a special number devoted to this end. We shall hope to give a brief history of the groping efforts of mankind down to 1881 to be civilized and make money; and then we shall show how easy it has been to do these things since that fortu- nate year. Our silver anniversary cele- bration is not to be construed as a be- lated conversion to Bryanism. We should much prefer to call it our golden an- niversary, or jubilee. JuDGE’s Golden Jubilee Would look well in type and would have an important, even a preten- tious, sound to the ear. But since we assisted the silver issue toward the exits there can be no harm in seizing the ahan- doned draperies - in other words, the fair- sounding words—to deck out our own little anniversary festival. For JUDGE will probably array himself in silvery colors on that occasion and look as daz- zling as a rew dime—but we must not give away prematurely the secrets of the great event. HOTEL AND CLUB NUMBER, TOO. The anniversary number will come at about the season of the year when JUDGE usually publishes a hotel and club num- ber, and in some way we shall try to pre- serve our custom. The hotel and club idea will not be lost sight of. Perhaps, as we work out our plans, the anniver- sary features will be all the more wel- come in connection with the regular hotel and club number, JUDGE so rarely trespasses on the reader's attention with shop talk that he craves pardon for this lengthy exception to his custom. NEVER GETS BY. “I always hate to pass an ice-cream saloon when I'm out walking with my girl.” “When I'm out with my girl I've never happened to pass one.” “That's strange. How do you man- age it?” “IL don't manage it; she does. Sne always insists upon going in.” — The Cathotic Standara, SALLOW FACES OFTEN CAUSED BY COFFEE DRINKING. How many persons realize that coffee so disturbs digestion that it produces a muddy, yellow complexion ? Aten days’ trial of Postum Food Coffee has proven a means, in thousands of cases, of clearing up bad complexions. ‘A Washington young lady tells her experience : “ All of us—father, mother, sister and brother—had used tea and coffee for many years until finally we all had stom- ach troubles more or less. “We were all sallow and troubled with pimples, breath bad, disagreeable taste in the mouth, and all of us simply so many bundles of nerves. “We didn’t realize that coffee was the cause of the trouble until one day we ran! out of coffee and went to borrow some from a neighbor. She gave us some Postum and told us to try that. “ Although we started to make it, we all feit sure we would be sick if we missed our strong coffee, but we were forced to try Postum and were surprised to find it delicious, “We read the statements on the pack- age, got more, and in a month and a half you wouldn’t have known us, We were all able to digest our food without any trouble, each one’s skin became clear, tongues cleaned off and nerves in fine condition. We never use anything now but Postum. There is nothing like it.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Pabst’s process of brewing is exclusive all the way through, and that is the * rea- son why” Pabst beer is to-day the most popular brand of beer in the world. People know when they drink Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer that it is the cleanest beer in the world—because it never is touched by human hands in its entire process of manufacture. People know when they drink Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer that it is the richest beer in the world, because it is made from the exclusive Pabst eight-day malt, which is the only malt in the world that retains all of the richness of the barley. People know when they drink Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer that they are drinking a beer that is fully aged, because it is aged by the exclusive Pabst process and is never mixed with “young” beer to give it head or body. People know that for the past sixty years Pabst has been foremost in the manufacture of a superior beer because he has spent millions to brew a beer that is perfect in Age, Purity and Strength, and Pabst's Blue Ribbon stands to-day without an equal as a clean, pure, whole- some refreshing heverage.

They find new ones in every bottle When you speak of a “ ten- cent cigar” you mean a cigar that costs you ten cents. The same cigar is to the manufacturer a“ $40 per M.,or 4c. cigar, to the jobber a“ $50 per M.,"or 5c. cigar, and to the retailer a * $60 per M.,” or 6c. cigar. Intrinsically that cigar is worth as much when the manufacturer appraises it at $40 per M., as it is when the retailer hands it over his counter as a ‘ten-cent straight.” The difference be- tween 4c. and toc, is what it costs to get the cigar from the manufacturer to you along the « Id-fashioned trade turn- pike with three tollgates. Now, suppose you go to the maker of your cigars and say to him: «+ Sell me my cigars at wholesale and I'll take them home myself across lots.” “Oh, no," he will reply, that wouldn't be fair to the retailer who has bought my cigars to sell at retail price.” Tam a maker of cigars who has never sold a cigar to a jobber or retailer, to sell again, Hence I am under no obligations to «the trade.” I invite the patronage of the man who objects to paying for the privilege of allowing a retailer to sell him a cigar —who wants to buy his cigars at cost, without the arbitra- rily added expenses of the jobber and retailer. To prove that I actually do sell my cigars at wholesale prices I offer them under the following conditions : MY OFFER IS: | will, upon request, SUDGE, expres prepaid. tlejuay smoke ten cigars and return the re- maining alnety at my expense If he Is not pleased with them; If he Is pleased, and keeps them, he agrees to remit the price, $5.00, within ten days. The fillers of these cigars are Clear Havana, of good quality—not only clear, but long, clean Havana —no shorts or cuttings are used. They are hand made, by the best of workmen, The making has much to do with the smoking qualities of a cigar. The wrappers are genuine Sumatra. In ordering, please enclose business card or give personal references, and state whether mild, medium or strong cigars are desired. HERBERT D, SHIVERS 919 Filbert Street, Philadelphia, Pa.
