COURAGE IN ADVERTISING.

The merchant who commences a
campaign of advertising without
the courage to carry it through
should be dissuaded from beginning
at all. Like military campaign,
it is not, as the old soldier said,
call beer and skittles." There are
reverses, defeats and seeming losses
in the career of the most succes sful
advertisers as there have been in
that of the most successful generals.
The chances of war are occult. The
winningside can often show the
greatest scars and the smallest roll
call.
But, just as no general of any
military training or experience
would give up the campaign after
one or two revers es, neither should
an advertiser feel discounted or
discouraged because his first, sec
ond or third trial cost him more
than he received from it.
Here the chances of advertising
are occult. The weather is often
the sole cause of a good and costly
ads failure. Many a bargain"
sale has been ruined because of
heavy rains on the advertised day
of sale. Hundreds of dollars sunk
in newspaper space that brought
next to no returns. Does the astute
dry goods merchant give up bus1-
ness or stop advertising because of
such set back? Not much. He
knows that neither the ad or the
mediums are to blame. On Jupi-
ter Pluvius alone the responsibility
rested, and as his action was I'M
forseen, there is nothing to do but
to "grin and bear it."
A man is often ill-advised when
he takes his own advice, and fire.
quently when he listens to others.
| have known really good adver-
tisement completely spoiled by be-
ing placed in the wrong mediums.
If the timid advertiser makes
bad break at starting, or his efforts
are nulli6ed by any Of the accidents
of advertising, he stops short de-
clares sach drain on his finances
will ruin him, and joins the ranks
of that surly crowd which annoys
the business world with its clap
trap about advertising not paying.
Courage-the courage to stick to
your posts essential in advertis-
ing as in military warfare. You
would despise soldier who fled or
laid down his arms at the first shot
from the enemy's guns, and you
can't admire the adertiser who has
not sand" enough to persevere
after slight reverse. JOHN c..

THE Montreal Witness takes high
ground, a position that but few of
the American press have ventured
TO occupy, when it declares that "the
United States is the only nation OF
the earth that can interpose to put
a stop to the Armenian atrocities
without having the interference re-
sented by Europe" There Is SO
much of truth in this that the
Springfield Republican, a very con-
sentative and courageous paper, de-
clares that the suggestion is worthy
of grave consideration, and that
"this country has the best of all
pretexts for interfering in the as
saults upon our missionaries and
their property" 1t would seem that
no other so-called Christian nation
will interfere, why, then, should not
the United States, in the interest of
humanity, break the ice by demand
ing of the Sultan that the outrages
cease? Would such demand be
respected? 1t probably wonld, be-
cause it would give the European
powers the best of opportunities to
concur, whereas of their own motion,
because of mutual jealousies and
fears, they dare not take the initia-
tive. But suppose that the state
ment of Professor f. Hopkinson
Smith, who has just returned from
Asia Minor, is well-grounded, name
ly that the outrages have been much
exaggerated and are greatly mis-
understood on this side of the water;
that the truth is English and
American missionaries are to blame
most largely for all the trouble be-
cause they have not been content to
preach the gospel but have trained
the Armenians to think that they
are ill-treated, and thus shave sown
the seeds of discomfort and rebel
lion" that the missionaries started
the trouble and "are responsible for
all the difficulty, and when the
blame is properly placed it will rest
upon their heads" In that case,
under the American protest, the
Turk would be afforded the oppor-
tunity to prove the truth Of Profess
sor Smiths charges against the mis-
sionaries. 1t would then remain to
be settled whether, admitting them
to be true, they are sufficient cause
for the massacres that have taken
place and the inhuman treatment
of the Armenians by the Kurds,
and for the matter of that by the
Turks themselves.

CONGRESSMAN NEwLANDs, in his
speech in Reno the other night,
said he would be glad if there was
war declared. 1t would be deplor-
able, with all its dreadful conse-
quences Of death and destruction of
property, but it would be infinitely
better than the horrors of long
delayed industrial depression, and
it would bring about the free coin
age of silver very quickly. Still, we
are told Newlands don't care much
about free coinage of silver. 1t
seems he don't-only enough to go
to war about it.

can silver dollar buys in the United
