THE ONE WHO WON'T BE THERE.

boys come back
My bein there would do no good in all that
jam and pack;
There'll be enough to welcome them-to cheer
them when they come
A.marchin' bravely to the time that's beat
upon the drum
They'll never miss me in the crowd-not one
of 'em will care
If, when the cheers are ringin' loud, I'm not
among them there.
l went to see them march away-I hollered
with the rest,
And didn't they look fine that day, a.marchin'
four abreast,
With my boy James up near the front, as
handsome as could be,
And wavin' back fond farewell to mother
and to me!
vow my old knees trimbled so, when they
had all got by,
had to jist set down upon the curbstone
there and cry.
And now they're comm home agen The
record that they won
Was sich as shows we still have men when
mems works to be done!
There wasn't one of them that hinched, each
feller stood the test
Wherever they were sent they sailed right in
and done their best
They didn't go away to play-they knowed
what was in store
But there's grave somewhere, today, down
on the Cuban shore
l guess that I'll not go to town to see the boys
come in;

crush and din
There'Il be enough to welcome them-to cheel

Reports are that President Mckinley
is much concern ed at the outbursts all
over the land Of popular indignation at
the War Department and its agents
in the army. The venerable Sherman
speaking Of the matter said:
II the President does not order an in
vestigation, Congress has the power to
impeach the Secretary of War and infiict
a punishment that will mean everlasting
disgrace in case OF conviction.
In that case the President would be
held equally responsible with the secre
tary for not having ordered an inquiry
promptly upon the presentation Of
charges of so serious a character. In
my opinion, the President will find that
he will be compelled to order an investi-

John Hall.

New YORK, Sept. 5.-There promises
to be healing OF the breach between
the wealthy members of the Fifth
Avenue Presbyterian church caused by
the resignation of DR.. John Hall, the
venerable pastor of the church. DR..
Hall was induced to withdraw his resig
nation, and the withdrawal caused a
number of influential members to leave
the church. One of the conditions
made by DR.. Hall, when he withdrew
his resignation, was that he should be
given an assistant.
A majority of the congregation has
turned toward Rev. DR.. Payton H.
Hoge of Wilmington, n. @. No call
has yet been extended to DR.. Hoge and
none can be until after the meeting of
the presbyters and the trustees in Octo.
Der. This, however, does not prevent
the discussion of the matter by the
congregation.
DR.. Hall, who is now in Europe, il
booked to return to this city on Sept

LET THE PRESIDENT DIRECT INvEs-
TIGATION.

John Sherman believes in saving the
departments Of government from scandal
and reproach, and in his interview says;
For the good of his country, as we'll
as as for the protection of his good name
and fair tame, it will soon be necessary
for President Mckinley to direct an in
vestigation of the War department and
the part played by that department In
the conduct of the war.
No doubt the word "direct" was used
instead Of order, as the more authoritative
and suitable in this case. The President
must "direct' such investigation so that
there shall be no dodging or whitewash-

preparation of $3.50, 900, to be spent in
newspapers in the advertising of ono
Of its brands-"Battle Ak" Plug Tobac-
co.'s worthy Of more than passing
comment.
To expend this amount Of money ju-
diciously is a problem, This will be
obvious to any advertiser. Its solution
Ia therefore Instructive to every mer-
chant and producer who has need of
publicity for his business welfare.
This, then, was the determination
finally reached. The detail necessary
to the handling Of this volume of busi-
ness demanded the experience and
equipment Of an advertising agency Of
the first class.
The G. II. Hsulenbeck Advertising
Agency Of New York City was therefore
selected, and estima es we're prepared to
cover the entire country for such medi-
bring quick aud sure returns.
In this connection it is certainly par.
donable for the News. Democrat to call
attention to the fact that the News
Democrat was included in the list.
There is point to be made just here,
and it is that If the foreign advertiser,
having practically unlimited means and
exercising judgment born Of years of
experience, decides upon given
medium, 1t is because of the excellence
OF that particular medium, for the field
that it covers.
Local advertisers will do well to reflect
on this point 1t is pregnant with
meaning to every one of them.
The mode Of preseni alton was the
question to be settled after the means
Of presentation had been decided, and

There was no nibbllng at the PROPOSE

backed with splendid business courage,
the first "copy" called for l entire
page. This served to rivet attention,
and the contract then requires that the
lesson shall be driven home every other
day by convincing arguments occupy
ing sixteen inches of space, splendidly
illustrated and displayed,
In conception and execution this
business is unique.
The American Tobacco Co., has taken
the dull season, which was made duller
by the timid who feared the war as q
factor in business, and it has given a
colossal order as an indication that, il
times are dull, the thing to do is to
make them brighter is through jadicious
advertising.
Newspaper advertising is the best way
to make good times if you have any
thing really good to offer, and the way
to use newspaper advertising is with
generous space and proper display.
1t was p. I. Barnum who said: "Ii
you only have $40 capital to begin your
business, and want to make money, bt

newspapers"

Some Pertinent Questions That Can
All Be Answered With
One Reply.

Why is it that Canton and its suburbs
with combined population of 81 900
there is only one medical preparation
which gives statements of residents to
back up Its representations? Why is it
that Dosn's Kidney Pills do this in
Canton as well as every other city and
town OF any Importance in the Union?
Why is 1t that there are advertised in
every newspaper q dozen of remedies
and only one can supply local indorsa-
ton Of its claims? The solution of the
problem is simple. Only one remedy
has the curing and staying power.
Other remedies make all kinds OF gigan-
tic yet futile efforts to get local proof,
but the attempt ends in producing a
statement or two from places that as far
as Canton is concerned might as well
be in the moon. Here is Canton proof
which backs up the merits OF Doan's
Kidney Pills. Mr., ]. j. Combs, of 247
