Every little while some tramp artist
comes along and approaches our local
business men with some scheme for dis.
play advertising, like hanging a chart
with their business card thereon in some
conspicuous location. Most of our peo-
pie turn deaf cal, but very few who are
sure that newspaper advertising doesn't
pay in spite of the testimony of many
who have tried it and talk in the light OF
experience, come down with the price and
are framed for the admiration OF their
fellow beings. The tramp collects his
fees and carries the money away with
him, not leaving cent except perhaps a
trifie at the hotel. The chrome is lett for
the flies to travel over and dust to sccu-
mulste on. One by one, the concerns
represented either 60 out OF business, fail
or die until, in the course of a few years
the thing resembles a business graveyard
more than a directory. This applies as
well 10 the fence signs scattered ali
through this section, causing many tear
for the fate of those whose misfortunes
would likely be forgotten were they not
constantly brought to mind in this Rsy.
