The kidneys, separate from the blood,

Hostettcr's Stomach Bitter5 stimulates
the kidneys, not as an unmedicated al

The business mar who says that ad-
vertising does not pay does not adver-
tise. He is the one that always doubts
the prosperous trade reports he hears of
his competitor, who does advertise. He
sits in the back of his store, smokes his
pipe and wonders why he isn't making
any money. He has the blues when he
should have trade. He not only let's his
neighbor get that neighbours share of
the business, but a good part of his also.
He sees people whom he thought old
friends of his go into his competitors
store and come out with bundles Of
goods, when he has the same articles on
his shelves, and perhaps It lower prices
than they paid his competitor for them.
Why is this so? 1t is because his COM
petitor lets the public know in an in
telligent way through the local papers
what he has to sell and when he has it.
The successful advertiser looks after
his advertising space as he does his
clerks. He changes his ads. in such a
way the people are attracted by them.
He feels that to make money he must
be willing to spend some; that there is
strong competition in all lines of bust
ness, and to get his share of the trade
he must advertise, and to do it in the
most skillful and intelligent way. If he
cannot write advertising matter himself,
he seeks the aid of some one who has
made the writing of advertisements a
study-some specialist, who will see that
it is properly written in a catchy and
displayed way-some n whose duty 1t
is to take off the shoulders of a busy
all the worry of making up an ad.
No business man attempts to cure his
own sickness, pull his own teeth, make
his own clothes or attend to his W
cases. He employs specialists for
each Of these various services, and
saves money by doing 1t. 1t Is through
It's language and arrangement that an
advertisement gets its business-brinGing
qualities. There must be something to
public attention and hold it;
something Of interest, something out of
the ordinary, something that is different
from others of the same line Of bust
ness. To give it these peculiar features
requires experience, and the owner of
The Historian has engaged the services
Of such a specialist for the benefit Of
