MAP OF PoTTAwATTAMIE COUNTY,
Iowa have received a map Of Pot
tawattamie County, Iowa, from the pub
fishers, David Postevin ana L. P. Judson,
Civil Engineers and Surveyors, Council
Bluffs 1t is g finely executed map and
must be of great value to citizens and
others needing map of the county. To
US it's chief value consists in its showing
the loca ion OF Council Bluffs, the rail
roads from thenorth, east and south center
ing in Council Bluffs, the bridge Of the
| On on Pacific Railroad crossing the
Missouri River between Council Bluffs
and Omaha, and the location of the
Union Pacific Transfer Grounds in Coun-
Gil Bluffs.
There has been much rivalry between
the citizens of Council Bluffs and the
tcitizens OF Omaha-each claiming that
their city was to be the great city Of the
two. Both places may have reasons iusti
flying, to some extent, the claims of their
respective citizens. And both places are
probably destined to become cities OF
note. The location of the Union Pacific
r: R. Transfer Grounds in Council Bluff:
would seem to indicate the opinion OF
the Railroad officers that Council Bluff;
was the best location for a great city
And the location of the Transfer Grounds
in Council Bluffs must help to make il
become he great city of the two.

HOW money is Made.

One of the very important of the many ways
in which money is made is by advertising ones
business In this fast age, when everybody
reads the newspaper, no man can afford to carry
on business without advertising Count upon your
fingers the men who do thriving business, and
you will find that they make free use of prin-
tiers ink. The merchant who does not adver-
tise takes in twenty five dollars per day, while
his neighbor expends one dollar in letting peo-
pie know what he has to sell, and takes in twice
or three times the amount of the other. Amer
chant told US only yesterday that n mere Incl
dental ''locaP' of ours sold him half a car load
of salt more than he would otherwise have sold
a few days ago. Nothing is ever lost but some
thing always gained by judicious advertising.
