Estimating with the Posts already
heard from az basis, it is considered GER
tain that over 80, 600 veterans of the Grand
Army OF the Republic will parade at
Pittsburg September 11th, next, during
the 2sth National Encampment. Penn
sYlvania will have fully 5000 in line,
Ohio, 6000 to 1000, New York, 1000 TO
2 800, and other states will be represented
In proportion. Pittsburg and Allegheny
county will alone have between 1000 and
5000. Free quarters have already been
assigned for over II 600 comrades, most OF
whom are coming from far distant points,
and yet the encampment is four months
away. There will be 1000 mounted men
in the procession, which is expected to
consume over eight hours in passing a
given point. The decorations and illumi-
nations will be on a scale OF magniticence
never before known in Western Penn
sylvania.
Letters received indicate that there will
be remarkable reunion Of veterans who
have gone out into the world from Penn.
sylvania, Eastern Ohio, West Virginia
and Maryland, afford an opportunity for
the meeting of friends who have been
separated anywhere from a decade to a
generation past

Charles Austin Bates Opinion Of It As An
Advertising Medium.
Speaking of the value OF the 'locsl
paper" as an advertising medium, Charles
Austin Bates, in Trade Magazine, Phila-
delphia, says;
There is no printed thing which is so
close to the heart of the community as the
local paper. The pulse Of local life beats
I'm its every issue. An epitome of the
worlds news glows in its bright pages,
and the business news Of the local stores
should be in IL, too; should be there, not
"to help the paper along" not because
the editor Is a nice fellow and we want
10 encourage him. not for any reason eI-
cept the one great, shrewd, business reason
that it will pay.
If merchant will take care Of his
space, change his copy, keep it fresh and
put interesting matter in il, 1t will be
read as ass duously and as regularly as
the spiciest bit Of gossip As it gets
10 iders 50 will the dealer get customers
Aggressiveness and confidence are
essential i'm advertising. Timtd men do
not succeed. It's the fellow who goes
straight ahead, full of selt-COnhdeuCe,
forcelul bound to make his point that 5
the man whose business thriVes and
hOurlshes.
Let his advertisements breathe of
honesty aud truth Let every statement

rather let him uuderstate the goodness Of
his wares than oyerstate them. Above
all put news i'm the ads
NIhe publ sher will probably charge for

week which is perfectly right. II rs worth
all it costs Rates i'm country papers are
much too low in almost every case even
for standing card.
Let the merchants wake up, and the
publisher will meet Them more than half
way. IT, is wonderful how much good a
little confidence and eui huslasm Will do.
| do not care what town il is, intelligent
advertising in the local paper will pay.
If you haven't time, or If YOU haven't
the knaCk to write your own announce
ments fresh every week, better hire some
body to do it, There are hundred or
more business writers' in the country
now, some better than others, but every
one of them capable OF producing an "ad.'
that would be better than the same old
thing repeated everlastinVly. The editor
of the paper will often do it gratuitously
Give just as much attention to your ad
vertising in dull times as you do when
business is booming. A farmer doesn't
do his planting carelessly just because
harvest time is "A long way of.
Advertising is business seed, and one OF
the most fertile fields to plant IL in is the
local paper Put 1t there, water it, keeE
down the weeds and it will bring forth
fruit every time.
Properly tended advertising is as Ger
tain to bring good crop of business as
prime seed wheat is to grow into goOC
grain.
