Retailers Advertising.

The average retail merchant does moi
pay much attention to advertising anG
many of them would deny that they did
any at all. If, however, the question
is looked at carefully it will be found
that the retail merchant does advertise,
and the most prosperous ones 40 it to a
very large extent, possibly in greater
proportion than any other traders. Ad-
vertising is generally considered in the
light of a liberal use of printers lux,
whereas advertising is neither more nor
less than calling the attention of the
public to the wares you Sell.
1t assumes all manner and sort of
phases from the large display advertise
ment in the local newspaper to the
plain chalk marked sign board stuck in
barrel of potatoes outside or inside
the store. Some merchants advertise
by selling one particular article at a
loss, while Others by judicious use of
advertising talent sell all the goods
they deal in at fair margin of profit
and make money. 1t is simply ques-
ton of method and the mediums en-
ployed.
Some retail houses spend large sums
of money in the daily newspapers and
find it pays, indeed, it is pretty safe to
say that those who spend the most make
the most. 1t is not exaggerating to say
that in particular cases some Of these
large retail houses pay as high as $50,
900 to s35, 900 in a year to a single
newspaper. while their entire payments
amount to hundreds of thousands.
10 the average retail merchant these
statements mas appear somewhat in
credulous, yet they are facts that are
we'll known to those who have any
means of obtaining reliable information.
The amount of money devoted to ad-
vertising is limited only by profits made
in cases of this kind. Most of these
large houses started in very small way,
and the proprietors, had they been ask
d at the commencement of their ca
reer If they thought such huge expend-
itures practible. would have given their
opinions in the most negative manner
indeed. Some would have said it
would be simply ruinous and the height
of folly to do SO. One house spent a
dollar and a half week for the first
year in local journal and so developed
that in less than Is years it spent 81
900 in single day. Other cases could
be named where the expenditure was
even greater; but there is abundant
evidence to prove that advertising is as
necessary to business as oil is to a
steam engine.
This article is not written with any
idea of pointing out the way to adver-
tise, but simply to arouse the attention
of the retailers of the country to the
facts already known. No retailer should
stand in his own light upon this ques-
ton, but should try to work out his own
salvation by using every means in his
power to extend his business. If We
look more and more over the names Of
the most prominent business houses,
such as Marshall, Fields, Wanamakers,
Ridleys, and dozen others, We are led
to say, ego thou and do likewise, .
but you could not do it without adver-
tising. John T. Burgess in National

A widespread feeling OF sorrow
pervades the community of Un-
ion Furnace over the death of
Lucy Day insmire daughter of
John and Permelia Inymire, who
entered into her rest on the
evening OF November Sth. 1890,
in the 9th year of her age.
She was of an amiable and
and loving disposition and
adorned the doctrine of her pro-
fesslon with a noble display oil
Christian grace, She will be
much missed in the Berea Pres
byterlan church in which she
was faithful member, regular
in attendance and careful in her
conduct. During her last sick
ness she continually exhibited a
faith aud patience which alone
IS born of the skies. 1t was a
to visit her and wait
upon her in her sickness, and
her death was a perfect triumph
over the last enemy. Earth is
poorer for her going, but Heaven
S richer, for none who knew her
ioubt that 10 her death was gain
ind that now she is within the
,ity of God.
On the afternoon Of Nov 10Th.
large assembly of friends and
leighb0rs, at the funeral, mani
ested their high regard for the
lead and their heart felt sympa-
hy for the bereaved. Blessed

HAVE YOU READ IT?
Mary, the Queen CT the House
of David

is the suggestive title of a new
beautiful and interesting story. by
Row. A Stewart Walsh, ID. d.
with an introduction by Rev. I.
Dewitt Talmage.
1t is after the style of Ben Hur',
Prince of the House of David etc.
Its scenes and plots are laid in Pal
estine during the crusades. As q
story it thrills. fascinstes. and de.
lights the reader. But 1t is more
than a story it is a poem in prose
The first chapter is devoted to a
magnificent review Of the Madonna
art works In which the ideal wom-
an is presented and embodied in the
Madonna until ell are crowned
with the perfection of motherhood
and beauty and are unveiled in the
inspired Madonna OF Rapheal.
The story opens at the battle Of
Acre and presents IN WORT, and
pictures a panoramic view of orlen-
tai life, with its strange manners.
customs, and mythisms. Mean
while, under the guise as of q con
veried Jewish maiden reading to
her mother, the story of Jesus and
Mary is told with marvellous and
dramatic power and pathos. Indeed
this work is luminous with the gen
ious of the author and replete with
jems of thought which adorn its
pages. 1t has the enthusiastic en-
dorsement of such writers as Mrs
Harriet B.echer Stowe. E. p.
Roe. Mary Jane Holmes. Rose Ter
ry Cook, and host of others.
Among it's enthusiastic admirers
are Benson Losing. Kew. Chas.
