When Advertising Is Most Useful.


There's nothing on earth so mysteriously funny
as a newspaper advertisement. The prime, first
last and all the time. object of an advertisement
it to draw custom. 1t is not, was not. and never
will be designed for any other human purpose.
So the merchant waits till the busy season comes
and his store is so full of customers he can't
get his hat off, and then he rushes to the news
papers and puts in his advertisement When
the dull season gets along and there is no trade
and he wants to sell goods so bad he can't pay
his rent, he takes out his advertisement That is
some of them do, but occasionally a level-headed
merchant puts in bigger one and coops all the
business while his neighbors are making mort
cages to pay the gas bill There are times when
you couldn't stop people from buying everything
in the store if you planted cannon behind the
door, and that's the time the advertisement is
sent out on its holy mission. 1t makes it light
work for the advertisement, for chalk sign on
the sidewalk could do all that was needed and
have half holiday six days in the week; but
who wants to favor an advertisement
They are built to do hard work. and
should be sent out IN the dull days
when a customer has to be knocked down with
hard facts and kicked insensible with bankrupt
reductions and dragged in with irresistible
slaughter of prices before he will spend a cent
That's the aim and end of an advertisement, and
if you ever open store don't try to get them to
come when they are already sticking out of the
windows, but give them your advertisement
right between the eyes in the dull season. and
haps be able to smoke good cigar once or twice
a year. Write this down where you'll fall over
it every day. The time to draw business is
when you want business, and not when you
have more business than you can attend to
already

THE TREAsURER,s BOND.
The Senate Amends the House Bill, Reduc-
ing the Bond to 100000.

The Senate Amends the House Bill, Reduc-
ing the Bond to $5OO,OOO.
The bill III. r. 81 to increase the bond of the
Treasurer of State from $3.50, 600 to 81. 900, 900
came up as a special order in the Senate yester-
day morning.
Mr. Smith, of Jennings, moved to amend by
striking out ISL OOO 900" and inserting in lieu
100000, and by reducing the number of bonds
men from twenty to twelve.
Mr. Willard: / first desire to call attention to
the necessity for immediate action on this BILL
The bond of the Treasurer of State for the next
two years must he fled at the latest next Mon
day. 1t is but fair to the Treasurer, to the
House and to the Senate that action should be
taken as soon as possible, in order to enable the
Treasurer to know the amount in which he will
be required to be responsible, and to
avoid all question as to the amount
of the bond The late investigation of
the affairs of the Treasurer of State has shown
one thing which senators of all political parties
can agree upon, and that is: That at certain De-
RODS of the year, in very short space of time,
he has in his hands property of the State run
ming up to a million and half of dollars; ard, as
the Treasurer himself states to the committee on
finance, he has an average of about 1880. 900 OH
hand during the year In the months of Novem-
Der and April, and extending to the LIST of Janu-
airy, when the great school revenue passes
through his hands, the amount runs up
to 100000 or $1,000 000 In 1859 the
act was passed which gave to the Treasurer
Of State the right to take Office upon bond of
$loO OOO twenty six years nearly have passed
since then. Indiana has more than doubled her
population. and She has more than doubled her
wealth. Now don't consider this matter 8

It is noteworthy that the majority report
which gives only partial statement of the real
character Of the committees proceedings fails to
specifically state in what condition and form the
Treasurer has invested the funds that were not

anything of the real condition of the affairs OF

A Christmas Fable.

Sallie Fussandfeather was the finest
turkey hen in the farm.yard of Sl!a5
troot. fiad-Been born In TDa
spring from an unusually large egg,
and each succeeding month hal seen
her increase in beauty AMI plumpness.
Every feather was slick and smooth.
and Ii there was any fault about her,
1t was because she waddled little
from very latness. She was the ac-
knowledged belle Of the yard, and it
was thought the proper thing when
John DlHdon, the magnificent turkey
cock, picked her out as his favorte
hen.
Silas Groat, the farmer, did the
same thing; and one day, as Sallie
strayed near the open window, she
heard him say:
I've shall have fine feast on Sal
he Fnssandfeather some Christmas.
She is Just in shape to KILL
Sallle saw that her beauty bid fair
to be her ruin, and at once knew that
she must take measures to save her
life. She thought Of running away.
Dat gave that up when she remember
Il the savage dogs outside. Then she
determined on starving herself. She
refused the fat worms and grains of
,orn which John Dindon brought
Ter. and she ate only enough to sus-
ain life. She stood out in the rain,
neglected her feathers, and moped like
sick cat. She soon became thin and
worm, and as shabby as she had been
John Dindon deserted her.
md she was the laughing-stock of the
ard. But she was more than repaid
or all her sufferings when, on the day
before Christmas, she heard SiIas say:
"Snmething is the matter with Sal
lie Fussandfeather. She is too poor
o Kill, and she won't do fnr dim r."
That night Silas took her from her
COST, chopped off her head, and ut
er as present to a poor f,mily.
