It has been wisely said that .these are the days when people at home and abroad look through the columns of their home newspaper to see who are showing their faith in the town by advertising , and what inducements. At the present time there are a number of business Louses in Stockton that are not represented in the columns of the Sentinel. Change your system and let the world know you are still alive, in business and looking for trade. This can only be done by advertising in your home paper, and such a course will mean money to you.

Since the war Capt. Plllsbury has had service at the Boston navy yard, on the general board at Washington and on the army and navy joint board. He knows the duties of the chief ot the bureau of navigation thoroughly, having served as assistant to Rear Admiral Converse when he was head of that bureau, from November, 1903, to July, 1904. , His last duty before coming to Washington was as chief in of staff to Rear Admiral Evans command of the Atlantic fleet, in organizing which Into Its Bplendid state of efficiency he was a potent factor. It is known that Capt. Plllsbury did not seek his new duty, but he has the reputation in the navy of refusing to apply for any special duty and any assignment always assuming It was that characwithout protest. teristic that led him to undertake the command of the little fleet headed by the cruiser Prairie, which was assigned to the duty of endeavoring to successfully run the blockade on the New England coast during recent It was a foregone naval maneuvers. fleet conclusion that the defending would discover the approach of the pseudo hostile fleet in season to defeat the projected movement, yet Plllsbury accepted the unpopular task of commanding the blockade runners.

The vacancy in the Important office of chief of the bureau of navigation, navy department, which was vacated by the resignation of Rear Admiral (Willard H. Brownson, has been filled by thq appointment to that office of Capt. John Elliott Plllsbury, at present on duty In this city as a member of the general board of the navy, and also as a member of the army and navy joint board. Capt. Plllsbury notified the president that although he did not seek the office ho appreciated the honor implied in his selection and would perform Its du ties to the best ot his ability. - The selection of Capt. Plllsbury to be chief of the bureau of navigation is at best only a temporary measure of relief for the friction between the line and staff which Is now distressing the navy. Capt.

Yet he can exercise his good offices as a pacifier for a comparatively short time only, unless the president should decide to again have recourse to the doubtful expedient of commissioning a retired officer as chief of a bureau. For Capt. Plllsbury was born In Lowell, Mass., December 15, 1846, and will consequently have to retire on account of age December 15 next. e Combining in his record long with much work In the naval bureaus, especially that of navigation, the new head of the bureau Is peto dispassionately fitted culiarly judge upon their merits the various Issues between line and staff that are constantly arising In the depart-ment. Capt. Plllsbury occupies an exceptional position In the navy for a man of his rank in being practically out of line for promotion to the grade of rear admiral, though in his capacity of chief of the bureau of fiavigatlon he will temporarily enjoy that title. The beginning of the Spanish war found Plllsbury a lieutenant commander, and because of his tendency toward high explosives he was placed In command of the dynamite cruiser Vesuvius, then regarded as extra service.

The determination of the lumbermen to return to the employment of oxen In the woods of northern Wisconsin and Minnesota will recall the days of the pioneer of 40 and 50 years ago, when horses In the woods were a curiosity or luxury. Horses succeeded oxen for the reason that they make quicker time in hauling over long roads, and for the reason that feed became more plentiful as the country became settled by homesteaders. It was when feed was impossible to obtain that cattle were employed, for they were generally able to forage with the deer through summer and winter months. Those were the days of the dense pine forests when feed was plentiful and the climatic changes were not so sudden as Keeping Up to Date. a present, but the present day has Its "Why do you date your letters a advantages, though the winters are week ahead? more severe.
