John W. Wanamaker's profits from
his Philadelphia store last year were
over $1,75O,O and those from his
New York establishment will run
close to that figure. The Saturday
before Christmas the receipts in New
York were even greater than those in
Philadelphia and exceeded 100000
The New York store has paid profit
from the very day it was opened, al
though two firms which occupied the
establishment since A. T. Stewards
death have failed. The reason OF Mr..
Wanamaker's great success, both in
New York and Philadelphia, is his
skillful and extensive advertising 1t
has been his rule to confne his adver-
Using 10 newspapers anu hlagaAlhos'
on which he has spent annually more
than 100000 in Philadelphia. The
advertising bills Of his New York es'
tablishment exceeded even that sum
last year. Mr.. Wanamaker never
patronizes hand bills or fake adver-
Using schemes. He puts his an
nouncements in the newspapers where
they are read and he patronizes only
the high class and widely circulated
publications. The moral is obvious.

be secured under the last Democratic
administration. Topeka refunded
some bonds the other day at 81 per
cent, the lowest rate ever secured IN
Kansas. Interest rates generally are
lower than ever before. Money is
plentier than ever before. The banks
have larger deposits and larger sur

The Kansas Girl.

The Kansas COW, the Kansas hog,
The Kansas corn and hen,
Has each received encomiums,
From the crafty poets pen.
A knowledge Of their virtues great
Has set mems brains awhirl
But the fairest product OF our state,
Is the bllthesome Kansas girl
She brlghtens homes, she lightens cares
Brings sunshine into dark;
Dries up the troubled tear of woe,
Ignitcs the living spark
That grows into blaze of fame,
And sweeps the country wide,
And brings to us good fortune
With an unmistaken stride.
She makes our home a cheerful place.
Makes flowers to bloom and smile'
She does the dishes, sweeps the house,
And sings song the while.
When sore misfortune seems to have
Secured the upper hand,
She breathes sweet hope in our lives,
That well we understand,
For east or west, or north or SOUTH
In this worlds busy whirl
There's no lnvigorator
Like the love OF a Kansas girl;
And this Is why still maintain,
And hope always shall,
That the world Is better, purer, far
For the charming Kansas gal.

CONTROLLED THE RAINBOW.

Waikiki, Maui, August 10 =
A story is told of the late Mr..
Kiha that some four or Eve years
ago there was tug of.war at Pu
koo, Molokai, between teams from
Kamalo and Hslswa. Both teams
had been training for a long time
and there was real blood between
them. They had been pulling for
two hours and more. t5J Their
strength was about equal and a
draw was being talked. Suddenly
Mr.. Kiba emerged from the crowd
OF spectators and undertook to
captain the Halawa team. The ma
tives Of Kamslo and Pukoo vehe.
mently objected to Mr.. Kihs's in
trusion, but Kiha was bent on as
Stunning the captaincy of the team
and he never bothered himself
with the howlings of the mob.
After making a neat little speech
to his team, he turned to the
crowd and said, IF you see rain
bow in the heavens, Hslsws will
win" And it came to pass that
Only a short while afterward, a
beautiful rainbow was seen in the
western sky, the crowd was amaz-
ed, and the Halaws team won.
From that day, Kiba was believed
by the natives of Molokai a great
kshuns for in their minds, the
rainbow obeyed his com m and.
