Timely Idea For The Merchant.

Timely Idea For The Merchant.
Tho rapidity with which events
nowadays, follow each other in
unbroken succession renders it i'm
possible for busy men and women
to keep in mind all of oven the most
important matters which concern
them personally. This is timely
idea for the consideration of the
merchant who is constantly seek
ing to extend his list of customers,
In the matter of advertising it is
necessary for him to realize that
the publication of an advertise
ment only at intervals is not the
way to increase his business. 1t is
the constant use of the advertising
columns that wins. The public
may forget today what was adver-
tised yesterday; but today's adver-
Using is before them, andthere are
always plenty of buyers who are in
need of the particular goods men,
toned daily. To advertise at the
right moment is to advertise con-
tinuously.

curios of nature that has been dis
covered in the State is an opening
in the earth, in Braxton county,.
that seem to almost have no bottom.
One can roll rocks in the opening
that can be heard rolling down for
hundreds of feet below the surface,
and out of this opening one can
feel the hot air as warm as the sum-
NOR breeze, in mid winter. There
has never yet been any line long

Wool and the TarIh.

The much Wanted high proteo-
ton on wool has not turned out as
it's wild eyed champions claimed
and predicted in advocating the
passage of the schedule. The
American Wool and Cotton Re-
porter says with duty of IL cents
per pound in this country on fine
woods, we behold the singular spec
tacle of the domestic product sell
at suoh low prices as to warrant it's
expectation, AS one merchant re-
marked, TT is case whore eco
nomic facts controvert economic
theories Rather where economic
facts controvert the theories of the
high-tariff school. The facts are
exactly in accord with the teach
ings of the reformers. 1t is easy
to see says the Reporter" to what
an extent the tariff has failed to
meet the expectations of it's friends.
The unprotected wool growers be-
yond the limits of the United States
are plainly getting the best of it"
The policy of the Republican
party is to let the bond holders
and money lenders dictate all the
legislation on the money question.
OF course they fix things with an
eye to business. In the language
of one of these SINNERS, "the peo-
pie be damned" is their motto.
The trusts will name the next Re-
publican candidate for the Presi-
dency. They may though have a
beautiful time eleoting him. The
