Why farmers shouId Advertise.

Has it occurred to the average farm
er that If he had COW, horse a
dozen hogs or flock OF sheep to sell,
that 80 cent ad would reach hun
dreds Of people and probably be the
means of sending him dozen buyers?
Not only would the ad be profitable
to him in disposing of his stock i'm
mediately but 1T would be an adver-
tisement to him for months. Buyers
who did not want TO purchase when
the ad. appeared would remember
him and perhaps visit him in the fu-
ture. When farmer wants to sell
a horse or cow, how does he adver-
tise the fact? He tells his neighbor
something like this: 'If you see any
body that wants to buy a fine COW or
a good horse, send him around" This
is as far as a farmers advertising goes
and nine times in ten the neighbor
never thinks of the stfine COW" or the
good horse again. When anybody
has anything to SELL advertising will
bring results and can be made profit
able 10 the farmer as well as to the
merchant.

We Have EN-. Here Too.
Preston Republican


There are too many persons in
Preston, as in all other counties,
who are prone to run to the news
papers with their petty spites. No
sooner does political campaign open
up than this element dons its trot-
ting harness and proceeds to write
up all the utterances and inuendoes
it is capable of, enclosing them with
a mighty flourish to the county paper,
fully believing that the editor is fool
enough to publish the contemplate
vaporings without, of course, using
the authors name. This paper has
s'troubles of his own in this line as
well as every other newspaper in ex-
islence, and the frequency of COM
munications of this kind is growing
tiresome, to say the least. While
our columns are open to the discus
sion of any political question, or to the
just criticism of any political candi-
date they are not open to the venti-
lation ofanyone's personal petty spite
against a fellow men. We trust that
we make ourself plain and that we
will hereafter be spared repetition
of what reached us this week. Other
wise, we shall feel obliged to use a
name or two at the bottom of the
articles which come under the above

What The Bachelor Saws,

A woman who truly loves her hus-
band will like to clean out his old
pipe.
There is only one excuse for being
an old bachelor and that is nobody
else's business.
The man who kicks his way through
life may not have as many friends,
but he gets lot better treatment
from those he does have.
A woman's ideal of wife is one
who gives up everything to her hus-
band; mans ideal of a wife is one
who gives up everything to him.

take the kiss first, so as to make sure

Modern science restores the ear to
healthtulness in hundreds of cases
which in the past have been considered
incurable.
Putting off the necessary treatment
causes serious damage in hundreds OF
cases which might be wholly restored.
In 1877 Miss Annie Rolfe, PSF Forty
fifth street, Pittsburg. came under the
treatment of DR.. Sadler, S04 Penn Ave,
for polypus and discharge from the ear
The condition was perfectly cured,
and in 1897 she expressed, unsolicited,
her great satisfaction for the perfect
cure that had lasted so many ears, and
will be glad to answer any who may
desire to communicate with her. From
the first of the year DIR. Saddler has as

The average woman thinks there
will be no marrying in heaven be-
cause there won't be any bachelors
there.
You can generally tell how much a

Dante made no mistake. He ought
to have saved the deepest, hottest
oven for the man that writes the be-

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: s'For six years have been .
sufferer from a scrofu1ous affection OF
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. C.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to re-
moval of the gland. At this critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be
gan its use. Before had used one bot
lie the enlargement began to disappear,
snd now it is entirely gone, though am
not through with mr. second bottle yet.
Had only used your SIS. long ago,
I would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $50"
This experience is like that OF all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. SIS. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.

Boys Profanity.

Is Swearing going out of vogue? asks
the Hartford "Times. We wish it
were. But anybody who goes much
among the people Of this country, and
especially one who listens to the con-
versation of the young men on our
city streets, knows that profane
swearing is exceedingly common. In
fact there seems tx, be more youngsters
than ever before who cannot utter
three consecutive sentences without
one or more oaths. 1t grieves us to
say that this is not true only of the
big cities, or of the cities Of the West
and South. 1t is true of every New
England city and town. One cannot
help knowing this who rides in smok-
ing cars on our railroads, or waits in
railroad stations. or listens to the con-
versation of the sporty youths of the
period, wherever two or three Of them
are gathered together
1t is melancholy fact that there
are hundreds If not thousands Of
youngsters in every American city
who are habitual and incessant swear
yio. OuI OUocINdtluu 10 ulldU uuCi q
are a great many more than there
were quarter of century ago. Pro-
family Of speech by men in public
places accompanied by rude and boor

Disguised listeners to their vile con-
versation has become crying nui-
sance in this country. Is there any
man or woman of refinement who is
compelled to travel much in the Uni
ted States who will not assert the
truth of the statement?
1t is sign, and, of course, an un-
loving sign, of the growing national
tendency to nervousness and worry.
Excessive mental perturbation, readi-
ness to be annoyed at trifles, precipi-
fancy of judgment and expression,
violence Of speech, all these things
go together. That profanity increases
among boys is simply sign that it
increases among their elders.
We are reaching an age wherein
about everything done by man is
done by a how
