Advertising and Advertisers.

Men who have thought seriously
about the matter know that adver-
Using, be it great or small, pays a
premium on the money invested, 1t
may not bring direct results, but it
is more often Ike casting bread
upon the waters. The object of
advertising is not so much to sell
an article that everybody wants as
ii is to make everybody want an
article that the advertiser sells.
The merchant must keep his name
and wares before the people all the
time to catch new customers, who
are ever changing.
People as rule are very forget
full. They have to think pretty hard
to remember the presidential
candidate two campaigns back, and
yet he was pretty well advertised at
the time 1t has been truly said
that the time to advertise is all the
time. In business there is no such
thing as standing still. A business
man must go forward or he will fall
back. Each years effort should be
to exceed last years sales The
only sure way to do this is to ad-
vertise. Advertise in busy times
because the iron must be struck
while hot, and advertise in dull
times to heat the iron. 1t can be
done.-Press and Printer.

TO SUMMON THE DOCTOR.
Use of Homing Pigeons Is Suggested
for Country Districts.


Thanks, perhaps, more than to any
thing else, to the successful use Of
homing pigeons by the French govern
ment, both in military and naval man
euvers, there has been a general re-
vival of interest in the subject of the
possibilities of the utilization of these
birds as a means of rapid communica-
ton between points that are for vari-
Gus reasons unconnected by the usual
means of communication.
The Medical Record and several of
its contemporaries are urging the great
benefits that medical practitioners in
sparsely settled districts may derive
from carrier-pigeon service. The idea
seems 10 have been successfully in
augurated by several medical men, who
have written of their experiences.
The plan is for the doctor who is ex-
pecting a call from a distant farm or
hamlet beyond telephone or telegraph
service TO carry one or more homing
pigeons to the point, with instructions
to release the feathered messenger
when his services may be required.
The possibilities of the homing pigeon
have never been estimated fully.

Decreasing birth Rate. in America.


French economists are consoling
themselves for the gradual depopula-
ton of their country, pointing out that
many of the American states, includ-
ing the whole of New England, are still
worse off, says the ST. Louis Globe
Democrat. The birth rate in France
has fallen from 33 per 1000 at the be-
ginning OF the century to 22 per 1000,
and is less than the death rate, so that,
if the present conditions continue, in
about eco years the French race will
have become extinct. In many of the
United States, however, matters are
even more serious. The birth rate in
Nevada is 1870 per 1000, so that, even
If no more people should emigrate from
that state, it's population would die out
completely in less than 100 years.
Maine comes next with birth rate
Of 1890 per 1000, which gives its race
about a century longer to exist. New
Hampshire is third, with 1874 per 1000
Vermont is fourth, with 1875, and
strange to say, California, which comes
next, has birth rate of 1914 per
1000, or nearly IL per cent. less than
that of France.

is VERY RICH.
Newly Discovered Country in
WashingtOn-Free Gold Exist
ing i'm Samples of Ore Brought
Back. .....

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 2S.-The
first authentic news concerning
Washington S new Ell Dorado. near
Mount Baker, and how to get there,
is brought to Seattle by Z. w. Sa-
portas, president of the information
and registration bureau. who, with
Frank Crydo and Gus Wagner. ex-
perienced miners of Dawson City,
went to the scene of the latest ex-
element last Saturday. According
to Mr.. Saportas, the route is pas
sable and not very difficult until
within five miles of the find. The
last five miles, however, present OBJ
stacles that would discourage any
one but an experienced prospector
and mountaineer. There is in Mt.
Baker and its surrounding nights
enough gold, says Mr.. Saportas, to
keep prospectors busy for the next
ten years. In samples of ore that
were brought back by the inform
ant, Mr.. Bogardus, the assayer, by
a cursory inspection, declared that
free gold existed in exceedingly
good quantities.
IL have met many men, contin-
ued Mr. Saportas, who came from
Mount Tomohoy (Tomboy) and they
all reiterated the stories concerning
the great strike of Sl0,0 to the
ton made in Bear Mountain to Tom
ohoy CTomboy) and several others
have found ore equal to the dis
coyery in Bear Mountain.
4 special correspondent of the
Evening Times sends word from
Summas as follows:
The gold discoveries in the
mountains Of Whatcom county are
beyond any doubt the richest in the
annals OF the Pacific coast or even
in Alaska. So say the most eX-
perienced prospectors whom have
accompanied to the scene OF the
recent finds.
The recent find is in Bald Noun
tain, situated in the northeast por-
tion of Whatcom county-northeas
of Mount Baker. The mineral range
runs northwest and southeast and
today sis located for thirty miles.
There is no telling how much fur
Their it extends.
The vein is in FIVE claims, Lone
Jack, Bonnie, Sidney, Lulu and
Whist, varies from three to five feet
in thickness. 1t runs under layer
of porphyry ledge in serpentine
manner, and auriferous shale APP
pears in the ledge. 1t is a free mill
ing quartz of sugar and rose color
carrying copper and silver. The
vein can be traced half mile. The
cropping is under solid porphyry.
The gold is known as wire gold
and can be seen with the naked eye
and picked out with the fingers.
That great quantities of it exist,
there is no doubt. The formation
of the range in which the find is To-
Gated does not look to bel-very rich
in minerals. If there is any placer
mining, it has not yet been demon
strated to be paving proposition. "
