A Business Truth.

you can't fill the bucket by one
stroke of the pump handle" Many
business men insert small adver-
tisement once or twice in publica-
ton "as trial and then sit back
and wait to see what becomes of it..
Quite naturally, nothing-or next to
nothing-comes of it. People who
see your advertisement once or twice
are just beginning to take note of
what you say, and, perhaps, to
resolve to give your goods trial,
The next time they look over the ad-
vertisements in their fayorite paper
you are not there. Consequently the
man who advertises steady and
persistently wins their confidence
and gets their trade. 1t is quite just
and proper that he should. Nobody
is going TO take trouble to hunt up a
man who shyly bobs up to the sur
face now and then and then hobs
down again. CARTS Publishing Com

ACQUIRE BRAVERY.
Old Soldier Tells How to Overcome In
herent Cowardice.

u would like to lot young men know, y
| said an old soldier, that bravery, like al
most any other attribute, can BIO acquired
l would like to let them know this be-
cause there are some poor fellows who are
! brought into the world with timid no.
ture that causes them much suffering.
While having an admiration for brave
men, they feel that they are towards, and,
accustoming themselves to this belief,
they never attempt to fight against their
weakness. Do you know l really believe
that most of the noted bravo men of the
world have become brave simply by sys-
tematioally overcoming cowardioe. Did
not Lanncs, Napoleon most dashing gen.
eral, say, THE man who says ho never felt
fear is a poltroon and liarY But, while
Lannes thus acknowledged to the sensa-
ton of fonr, he never allowed himself to
show it, and that is the point. Moreover,
by practice such things become easy. Now,
II there is any young man who Is coward
and wishes to become brave, let me say
this to him: Make up your mind first Of
all that 1t Is much preferable to suffer
death than to be trampled upon or humil-
lated From what you have experienced
you know the disgust, the suffering, acute
and degrading, that results when you back
down In an unmnnly fashion. Say this,
then-I much prefer to die than to expert
enco such feelings again. Impress 1t upon
your mind, and then, as test to your
spirit, force yourself to face those things
that you have been avoiding from fright.
II man has been overawinR you, blutfing
you, in plain terms lay for him deliber-
ately, bluff him back double, and II he
wishes to fight throw yourself upon him
with a vim and punch hard. He cannot
do more than kill you and, as you have
made up your mind that 1t is better to die
than to submit to humiliation, your death,
as 1t WERE is a thing already program
med And If you whip him tho sensation
Is very agreeable and frees you from any
further fears Of falling victim to coward

Origin of Giftmaking.

The custom of giving Christmas
presents is said to have originated in
Spain. During the revels Of Christ
mas eve, when the booths and ba-
zaars were thrown wide open, the
madcap jewellers were accustomed to
going from booth to booth, purchas-
ing such articles as struck their
fancy, and in the high carnival
which followed these purchases were
exchanged Unfortunately. The OPP
portunity thus afforded of exchang-
ing secret love tokens gave rise to a
greater discrimination in the pres
ents selected and is the earliest rec

The value OF milk to a farmer who
10 producing milk for the profit there
is In It. Is measured by the difference
between Its cost Of production and the
income from Its sale or use. 1t Is a
fortunate thing for the ambitious
dairyman that some Of the most impor-
tant conditions which influence the
cost OF producing milk and affect its
value when disposed Of. are under his
control. The dairyman who allow as
