The Small Advertiser and the shrewd
 Solicitor
 'I haven't money enough to ad- vertise and make any show with the men who fill the papers with full and half and quarter page ads in big display type,' say lots of men.
 Nonsense" says the shrewd solie- itor, you can afford to have place in newspapers if you can afford to have store in the city. You have something distinctive about your store, or your way of doing business that makes people deal with you. You can have the same distictive- ness about your ad and not suffer by comparison with other adyer- tisers. Why, some of the largest ad- vertisers use the smallest ads and prefer them. They get positions next to or under reading matter-the best in the paper-and they present clinching arguments and forceful facts briefly, brightly, briskly, so people will read as they run through the paper. Such ads sell goods. The permanent prosperity of these ad users proves that conclusively. Il you don't feel like beginning in all the papers at once, begin in one-tht best one-and let resultssay whether you shall extend your advistine later. Printers Ink.

 A resident of Simon street writes to the DEMOCRAT as follows: "Allow me space in your columns to say a few words in reference to the proposed public improve ment in Simon street. The place is situated AS to receive all the surface water from Porter and Riverside streets and having no outlet all this water stops about midway in the street forming one large pool which re- mains there during the winter season rem dering the street impossible. There is a catch basin at the north end, but owing to the fact that the street is not properly graded this surface wates cannot reach it and remains on the street until the sum- mer sun comes to its assistance and takes 1t away in unhealthy vapor. This district has suffered much from scarlet fever dur ing the past few years and it is well known fact that much if not all this sick ness which has robbed many of our neigh bors of their children is due to the un- healthy odor which arises from the stag nant water in this and other stench holes. We hope the present board of road com missioners will take all these matters in consideration and relieve us from our present dilemma
