Another View of n Great Question
There are two values to the purchase
of advertising.
l. What it costs.
2. What it is worth.
II you are starving, what is loaf of
bread worth?
II you sell goods, what is an adver-
tisement in good medium worth?
The true value of an advertis 'ment is
not what you pay, but what it pays
you.
The DEMOCRAT is small, meaty and is

AN INTERESTING DECISION.

A decision has just been given by the English house of lords which will interest some people in this neighborhood. It is that bank Is not liable to the real owner of moneys deposited by broker or agent, and applied to discharge that brokers ob- ligation to the bank. One Thomson was 8 broker in Edinburg, and to him were en- trusted certain bank shares belonging to trust estate to be sold and the proceeds re- turned to the trustee. Thomson sold the shares, but deposited the proceeds in two banks in his own name. The total pro- $12, 900 were deposited in 6 bank where Thomson's account was overdrswn some $20, 900 and more, and the remainder went Into Q second bank, which he owed some s4, ,OOO. Both banks used these funds to reooup themselves, and applied them to make good Thomson's overdrsfts. The trustee aued the banks to recover the pro oeeds of the sales of stock which Thomson had deposited. The banks replied thst they held no money belonging to the trust estate; they had credited Thom- sons deposits to offset his over draft, and that closed the transaction, 50 far as they were concerned, as they were not concerned to inquire how Thom- son came by the money he deposited. The Scotch courts, and now the Lords, Hus. tained the banks view of the case.

It doesn't always pay to be, or seem to be, able to do things. A rsinmaker at Goodlsnd, Kan, has got himself into serious trouble. A oloudburst In that neighborhood @ few days ago destroyed the wheat crop of James Butler, farmer, and csused @ washout on the Santa Fe railroad. A train was wrecked by the washout and the engineer was killed. A. B. Montgomery, the Goodland rainmaker, claimed that he had produced the cloud burst, which came without warning from the barometer MT. Butler will sue Mont gomery for the value of his wheat crop. The widow of the engineer will likewise bring suit against the rsiumsksr for slO,- 900 damages. The papers in both cases have been prepared and the progress of the trials will be watched with great interest Inasmuch as Montgomery has publicly asserted that he brought about the storm which csused the disasters he will probably be estopped from denying his responsibility for the destruction oi the wheat crop or the death of the en Qfueeer

Whittier.

If you are mindful of the special needs of summer you must have a special ham mock gown. It has to be Especial" this year, because of the very general invasion
 of crinoline, and this gown must have no stiffening anywhere and no suggestion of 1t. It will be of chiffon, If you can have just exactly what you want, and there will be no telling where the gown begins and
 where 1t ends. Especially Is this true If you have 1t made of pale pinkish chiffon, and with a low square neck like the one shown. The foundation of the gown
 must be & well fitting soft silk princess dress, the skirt full and soft and not too long. When a skirt is scAnt you must not
