THE eclipse of the moon was carried
out according to programme Tuesday
night, and those who remained awake
long enough had the pleasure Of seeing
quite novel free exhibition. Unlike
most persons who herald that they Will
perform gratis, the man in the moon car
ried out his portion of the programme
thanks to the earth, sun and weather
clerk without any preliminary remarks,
and after the exhibition was over moth,
ing at all was said about passing around
the hat or anything of the sort. So the
people had the opportunity of looking
on a novel scene at actually no cost what
ever. To ths casual observer the eclipse
was not visible until about II o'clock.
At that time a break in the regular lines
of Luna was noticeable, and from then
until II oS O'Clock Wednesday morning
the shadow of the earth appeared TO
spread over the face Of the great heavenly
reflector The eclipse was total at 1908,
and remained so for more than an hour:
The last vestige of shadow disappeared
at ? 54 The SKY vas clear and there
was nothing to interfere with the resi-.
dents of this terrestrial ball getting full
view of all that was going on. The
eclipse was an interesting study. Dur
ing part OF the time the moon looked like
a cannon ball that had been red hot and
was cooling off It was a mixture OF
faint red and blue, ard the lines were
quite distinct.

ADvERrIsE.-W can't say it too often
In order to make a success OF any busi-
ness YOU must advertise-the secret lies
in using the methods and mediums best
adapted 10 your needs.
Like a sick man seeking health by
artificial methods his very anxiety de-
ieals his purpose.
The sick man needs to get in harmony
with nature and her laws.
Some advertisers exert themselves too
much, ever to become good advertisers
They aim too high aud fall short OF their
mark.
Now and then it adds force to the ora
tors plea to raise his voice-to intonale
foicibly-just so i pays occasionally to
send out an extra large, loud-spoken an
nouucement. 81,
Really good advertising pays at all
times. whether it's done in hard times OF
GOOD times summer or winter.
The farther away from the theoretical,
the nearer to the practical, advertising
comes. by so much is its value to the ad-
vertiser enhanced -,
ifvou have a good article TO sell it will
pav YOU to do good advertising to tell OF
its good qualities
The wise advertiser must court natural,
practical methods of advertising II he
would succeed in convincing the very hu-
man public. =.
1t won't hurt a newspaper one whit, Il
occasionally attention is directed thIougn
its columns 10 its advertisers. The al
vertisers will appreciate such courtesy
and occupying as they. do,so nuch space,
at high cost, the compliment IS not ou'
of place.
Have YOU done business on a side street
long enough Ad9eyfise, aud you will
soon be located on the principal cor
ner" of the Main street.
That's right, women are 'curus crit
tiers, but, as George Eliot said, THE Lore
/ Almighty made 'em to match the men,
Wneu it comes to knowing just how tC
apneal to the women folks" in man
uer to bring the sheckels from their pock
etbooks is a poser for many an advertiser
He knows She is the great majority h'
wants to reach, for she buys more good'
than her husband brothers and sons alto
gether. And yet her tastes-"whims," !
Sou will-are Gurus The argumen

When does advertising pay
When the darkness follows day,
When the winter precedes spung,
When the song birds learn to sing
When the deaf no longer hear,
When the anarchist loves beer,
When the chickens feathers wear,
When the sailor learns to swear,
When the shiftless go in debt.
When the running streams are wet,
When the tramp for leisure yearns,
When the ice no longer burns,
When the business man is wise
Then's the time to advertise
