COMING TO THE THEATERS.

Rarely, IL ever, do farcIcal or COM
edy productions go to the ex-
tense of building and carry
ing around the country with them the
scenery, properties and other embellish-
ments which are such a potent factor in
OBTAINING and entertaining the eye Of the
audience. They usually depend upon the
proficiency OF the stock settings of the
theaters they are 10 play. The most
careful attention to scenic details gives at
mOsphere to any style of play, and the
more clearly the atmosphere Is developed
the more pronounced the impression pro-
duced upon the audience. A most strik-
ing exception to those productions is that
Of The Swell Miss Fitzwell, which, with
May Irwin as fits entertaining star. plays

three acts of Miss Twins play, absolute

There seems to be an idea prevalent
that advertising is for large dealers only.
This belief has kept many a small mer-
chant from improving his opportunities
in this direction. Nearly il not all of the
large retail merchants of the United
States have become so by extensive adj
veltising. The advertising which they
have done is not the sole cause Of their
success, but it has been the greatest con-
tributing cause. Most all large enterprises
which are successful have begun on
small scale. Their advertising was done
in small way, but it has been kept up
day after day and year after year. Good
business methods, untiring industry and
good advertising are the factors which
bring success in business.
Do not be afraid of being oversfadowed
by the big advertiser. Many times the
well-worded reader OF only a few lines
will reach the eyes of more readers than
the pretentious display OF the larger store.
1t tells the people you have goods to sell
and what you will sell them for. That is
all the big store can say. 1t is the price
that sells the goods. The dealer, be he
the corner grocy or the largest dealer in
general merchandise in the city, who will
sell staple or special articles, quality con-
sldered, for the least money, and lets the
people know it, viii! receive the patron
age.
Every city has plenty Of examples
showing how small dealers in all kinds
OF merchandise have made their business
success by means Of newspaper adver-
Using. Take what space you can afford,
contract by the year, watch it; change
the matter every day, and you will soon
need more room for your store and more
space in the papers. Judicious advertis-
ing will develop any mercantile business
that has right to exist. Western Adj

The ClOven Foot

We Deg our readers to carefully scan
ali dispatches from Paris. The strongest
force now at work for the control Of the
negotiations Of the Spanish-American
peace commission is that of the Spanish
bondholders. These are not Spaniards.
The majt rity of them are Frenchmen. 1t
was this fact that brought the French
ambassador in as mediator, and finally
as the mouthpiece OF Spain. 1t was this
fact that caused Paris to be selected as
the place for the negotiations selection
proposed by Spain and promptly acqui-
esced in by our president. These Spanish
bondholders thrust their claims into the
newspapers OF Paris, and the London
Times few days ago INDUCED in Peck
snillan cant on the subject, setting forth
how sad it would be if our great and vic
toriouS nation should refuse to pay at
least a portion of its enemy's debts. "The
Cuban debt" is coming to the front again.
OF course the president and his advisers
and the American peace commissioners
are all said to be directly opposed to the
assumption OF single dollar of that debt
by the United States. Experience teaches
us that the most yociferous denals are
sometimes tie best evidence that the
thing denied is true. Ii our dear friend,
John Bull, in his friendly way, gently
chded us for leaving the Spanish bond
holders in the lurch, and should lead the
| European nations in sort of friendly
| agitation to induce It's to pay part of the
Spanish debt, or of any other nations
debt, it may require a good deal Of effort
on the part Of cur president to deny the
petition. Every man who desires TO see
the most dangerous political organization,
as it now stands, with which the country
was ever alllcted-will pray that the
president and his commissioners will take
the side OF the bondholders. In such a
case the fate OF the party would be much
like that which befalls the servant maid
who kindes the fire with kerosene.
Within few days another debt has been
DTOuSuJ lOTWdIQ. Ills is Cdllcu tIlc
Philippine debt. Not that the Filipinos
owe anybody anything, or even contracted
a debt, or even had authority to contract
a debt, but because Spanish bonds were
sold with which to buy powder and bull
lets with which to kill the Fi!ipinos. OF
course the bonds thus issuedAAre Phil
ippine debt, just as the bonds that were
sold to buy Mauser rifles with which to
shoot Cubans constituted the Cuban debt
The president cannot do the people
greater service than by signing treaty
OF peace which shall prov'e for the pay
ment by the United States, or the guar
antee OF such payment, of some portion
OF the Cuban or Philippine debts, So
called, or either of them. 1t would do no
harm anyway to the country, for the
senate would spun it, while it would do
the country much good by destroying the
republican party.-Silver Knight Watch
