Until business is successful without a
proper store, proper employees, and the
right amount of capital, it must be as
sumed that these three conditions are es-
sentiaI to the conduct of profitable trade,
and i5 is as obvious that so long as adver-
Using accompanies the business of profit
that advertising is necessary for the up
building of business.
The mere appearance of advertising In
dictates that business is being DONE or win
be DONE and SO long as everybody prefers
to buy of men of success rather than Of
men of failure just so long will the man
who advertises be likely to do the largest
business. Hardware

The cares and sorrows of the world for
them disappeared as did schooner alter

laugh at each good story that passed
round the circle of happy contentment.
As the hours flew on apace there was
a demand for limberser and the marie !
men just waded into it regardless OF the
bachelors who didn't want th,ir
brethren to show up the mex day with
heads bandaged a la broomstick.
But in every case the benedicts held
up chunk after chunk with that whose
afraid? way they had in the days of their
kidhood when dared by their playmates.
The fun waxed fast and furious ani
everybody was at the limit when there
came a hush and the cause OF it was a

and was swallowed up in the moonlight.

A MAN OF RARE NERVE.
Some Brave Deeds Performed by
Senator Pettus.
Rota BILE incidents in the Career of the
New United States Senator from
Aiabama-Good War REM
tniscence.

E. w. Pettus, who succeeds James
l.. Pugh as senator from Alabama, will
be one of the most striking characters
in congress.
His life, which covers period OF near
iy fourscore years, has bristled with
some of the most thrilling incidents in
southern history.
When the south was undergoing the
ordeal of reconstruction he was leader.
and. by his wisdom and conservatism,
no less than his heroism. he averted
much trouble between the whites and
blacks in the little town of Selma.
where he lived and practiced law. He
was loved both by the whites and blacks,
and could sway them by his eloquence.
l never knew a man who was such
master of men. One of the best ex-
ampIes of his power was shown in 1869.
Selma was then a town of 5000 peo-
pie. more than half of whom were ne
groes In fact. the republicans, car
pet-baggers and negroes controlled the
municipal government The town mar
shal was a negro, as were all the mem
bers of the police force. Not month
passed without some serious clash be-
tween the two races. the feeling con-
tinually becoming more intense. Dur
ing these troubles Gen. Pettus acted the
role of peacemaker.
During an alteration which grew out
of these constant differences young
friend of the generals shot a negro,
who died where he fell in the streets
of Selma In less than five minutes
a mob of 500 negroes, breathing venge-
ance, modified to lynch the slayer.
Excitement ran high. Feeling was at
that pitch where the least overt act
on the part of anyone would have pre-
cipitated a riot. bloody and disastrous.
The slayer secreted himself in saloon
near the crowd. Gen. Pettus heard OF
his friends danger and Immediately
went to him. Both got into covered
carriage in the rear of the saloon. The
