sBARcHING FOR TREASURE.
The Long Hidden Mccartney Mountain
Treasure viii Be Brought to Light.


L. B. Clark and d. w Wiman, Of
Helena, Montana, passed through the
city yesterday on their way to the Ne
carney mountain country, where they
will go into camp for few days, osten-
sibly for rest and recreation, but in
reality to make a careful search for the
treasure that is said to be buried In
that neighborhood. They have a cur
ious looking instrument with them,
which one Of the gentlemen claimed
was capable Of pointing out valuables,
"such as buried treasure" he inc'den-
tally remarked, and any other large
deposits Of minerals or solid metals.
The face of the instrument is likened
very much to clock, except that In
place of two hands there is but one,
which is balanced in the center like the
needle of a compass The different
points of the compass are not marked
thereon, but instead are a number Of
mysterious words, the meaning Of which
were known only to themselves, and
were really the key to the workings or
the strange instrument.
1--WE were down that way one day
last winter" said one Of the gentlemen,
but the heavy rains rather discouraged
u.s.. and we returned without accom-
plishing anything of consequence. We
found, however, that there is some
thing Of more than ordinary value bur
led there, but did not get the instru-
ment to locate it definitely. This time
we propose to find the much-talked-of
treasure, even If we are compelled to
remain there all winter"
AS there have already been several
small fortunes sunk in fruitless search
for the long-buried Mccartney treasure,
and as almost every conceivable instru-
ment has been used in the endeavor to
uncover the vast amount of gold
plate and other valuables said to be
buried somewha ere under the shadows
of the lofty old mountain, 1t is safe to
predict the result of their expedition.

The business man who says that ad-.
vertislng 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 neighbor's share OF
the business, but a good part Of his also.
He sees people whom he thought old
friends of his go into lis competitors
store and come out with bundles Of
goods, when he has the same articles on
his shelves, and perhaps at lower prices
than they paid his competitor for them.
Why is this SO? 1t is because his COM
petitor let's the public know in an In
telligent way through the local papers
what he has to sell and when he has 1t.
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 Dusl-
a.
ness, and to get his share OF the traoe
he must advertise. and to do 1t in the
most skillful and intelligent way. II he
cannot write advertising matter himself
he seeks the. aid of some one who has

specialist. who will see that
It is properly written in catchy and
displayed way-some one whose duty 1t
Is TO take off the shoulders Of busy
man 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 own
law cases. He employs specialists for
each of these various services, and
saves money by doing it. 1t is through
its language and arrangement that an
gets its business-bringing
qualities. There must be something to
attract public attention and hold 1t;
something of interest, something out oil
the ordinary, something that is different
from others of the same line OF busi-
ness. To give it these peculiar features
requires experience. and the owner of
