West Side station house. Thomas was
placed there yesterday afternoon at the
instance of his boarding houselSeeper,
woman who resides on Ninth street.
The woman claims that ODonnell Is
insane. Yesterday he went into the
garden and, with the utmost penitence,
began digging with spade for, as he
said, his lost soul"
Thomas did not find the object of his
search and he began to jeapordize the
lives of the neighbors. Police officer

escapade. The man was escorted to the
station house. where he uttered insane
prayers. He will be given hearing

SPRINGFIELD WINS.
Rafter Lost His Nerve and Let in Four
Runs.

Springfield, Mass, May S.-Springfleld
took the last in the series with Syracuse
today in a slow and uninteresting
game. The loss of the game by SYRIA
cuse Is attributable rather to the poor
work of Rafter than to good playing on
the part of Springfield. Rafter's passed
balls and poor throw to third were re-
sponsible for four of Springfield's runs.
Score.

Our Changeable Spaces.

Under the influences of the above
principles most of the Kosciusko mer-
chants have discarded the standing
cards they formerly ran and are now
using our Manageable spaces-that is,
they buy certain amount of space by
the year and change the advertisement
as often as they desire. When they
get in new lot of goods, when .ney
are offering special bargains, they an
nounce the fact in their space. in this
way they get the benefit Of local 81
transient advertising at low card rates
They also supplement this with occas-
ional locals or small display ads and il
this way do ideal advertising. There j.,
nothing monotonous about these ads,
They attract attention. They pay,

The Kosciusko star. (Kosciusko, Miss.) 18??-1898, 1895-06-14

The object of an advertisement is to
sell goods. No matter how pretty an
advertisement is, nor how much space
it occupies, if it fails to sell goods it Is
so much money thrown away. Fol-
this reason business men should pay as
much attention to their advertising as
thew do to their selection of clerks.
They should word them to induce the
reader to buy the goods offered, just as
a salesman urges their advantages in
tie store. When the ads are worded
right and then put i'll handsome type
like Mr.. T.. X. Anderson, of THE STAB
force, knows hCw, they will sell goods
sure enough.

PRIMARY Principles.

.. Come advertising pays much mora
than 9th ers with an equal expenditure
ofmoney.
3. To be efec,,.."e an advertiser ent
must talk to the customer in his home
with the same force AMI pursuasion
with which clerk would talk to him
in the store. If this is done, al adver.
tisement becomes equal to many lerks

WHEN a man wishes to shuttle of
this mortal coil one would judge he'd
choose some easy way into the un-
known. But some of the wouId-b
suicides have hankering love for
carbolic acid, probably because it is
known to be the most eXcruciating of
pOiSOns in its effects upon the physic-
al being. c. ?. Demers, postmaster at
Brooks, Polk County, and leading
pOpulist, terminated his career with a
dose of this abominable stuff, leaving
an invalid wife and five children to
struggle alone with the cold charities
of careless world. He had been
drinking heavily for the last four years
and not content with Squandering his
substance, killed himself like coward
that he might shirk the responsibility
of providing for his family. 1t goes
without saying that he swore by Bot
IngersOll, and will be one more to con
front the boss infidel at the bar Of
judgment. Saltwater Messenger.
While the greatest sympathy must
be felt for the hapless widow and poor
little children, left to the, too often
cruel neglect of selfish world, is il
not better that they should be so af
