There is no man in North Dakota
and few in America more competent to
write on the subject of advertising in
all its forms than Col. c.. A. Morton,
the pioneer real estate man of Fargo,
and he has recently contributed an
article to the North Dakota Review on
the subject, from which the following
is an excerpt:
I'm 1881 l paid the Fargo Argus for
advertising in its columns-and for
publishing my own paper. the Bulletin,
about $11 900. The same year l paid
old man Story of the Chicago Times
$1,000. besides $500 for single page and
$3.50 for half page of the Times. I
have always regarded that $3.50 as
practically thrown away. Page ad-

department. -stores-or for mining ven
tures-but it won't do for a real estate
agent-that is, the great cost, relatively
speaking, Of such space makes it pro-
hibitory advertising: for a real estate
dealer.
AS an evidence of what judicious ad-
vertising is worth it is only necessary
for me to say that although there were
more than. one hundred real estate
agents in Fargo in 1SS1-yet Morton
& Co.'s business exceeded that of all
other combined agencies by more than
thirty-three per cent It is very likely
that we spent more money than all of
the others put together.
l have often been asked whether or
not we could not-haying come here
in the early days-have succeeded
about as we'll whether we advertised
or not. have repeatedly answered
that question by saying that without
advertising we would have been prac-
tically unknown-but for printers ink
we would no have done ten per cent of
the business that vas done by Morton
& Co. in 1928, and as gold is to
brass or other inferior metals, so is the
advertising in live newspapers as COM

Bringing to Remembrance.

What is the Office of the Spirit? To
guide, to quicken. to sanctify, to COM
fort. One thing mentioned by Christ
at the Last Supper is Ito bring to re-
membrance." Perhaps this would come
under the general head of quickening.
The Spirit has a piercing, penetrating
power which gives vitality to old truth
and past things spoken. Among friends
here, the actual personal presence
seems necessary. Away from US a long
time, they grow dim and unreal. They
lose something Of their own distinctive
ness, and become invested with traits
which our fancy rives them. If the
quality Of our lives is lower than theirs,
they sink to our level if it is higher,
they will rise to our own height. The
frail memory needs quickenfng Many
things accomplish this-tri6es, small in
cidents, little surprises, as we'll as
greater events and experiences, when
for a short time the absent one is
brought vividly before us ''in his habit
as he lived" But long separation
tends to dim the outlines and fade the
colors of reality.
Without the quickening Divine Spirit.
the memory Of Jesus, even in the minds
of His closest friends, would have
grown obscure. He had often uttered
enigmas, habitually taught in parallels,
and when He spoke most plainly had
sometimes not been understood. His
words either mystifed His hearers OF
seemed to fall dead. This must have
been lost but for the Comforter who
was to bring all things to remem-
brance," or into living consciousness
what lay slumbering in the mind

Cycling No Longer a Fad.

Cycling has now passed its fad
period. Some years ago, when every
available hall in the big cities was
turned into an academy for the in
struction of the novice, bicycling re-
ceived a big boom; in fact, during '97
and '9S nearly every person of high
and low degree had wheel. The ap-
proval of society upon cycling enlisted
new recruits, and for q season or two
all other sports waned. This definite
approval by the smart set succeeded
in giving a much-needed impetus to
the cycle pastime and industry, which
was responsible for calling wide
spread attention to the general utility
of the bicycle; and now that the fad
element has abandoned its enthusiasm
a good, substantial, sport-lOving crowd
persistently clings to the bicycle for
the genuine, healthful enjoyment to be
derived from it's proper use. 1t is
ridiculous to assume that the bicycle
will supplant the horse; but for gen.
eral usefulness and all-around pleasure
the cycle will always have q strong
following-Walter j. Masterson, in
the Woman's Home Companion.

Luxury of English Country Life.

Various stories are told of the lux
ury of life in English country houses,
but one New Yorker who has just re-
turned from England thinks that he
has had an experience that marks the
limit to which pretentious luxury in
living may 60. He was stopping at the
home of an American girl Of wealth
who married an Englishman Of title,
and lives now in England in all the
circumstances that his sosition and
her wealth made possible. The dinner
was, of course, served by as many
men as there were guests at the table
and was rs pompous and elaborate
as was to be expected.
It was the next morning, however,
that the most peculiar feature of the
household methods came to his
knowledge. He was awakened by the
valet at the hour he had named and
was surprised to see him a moment
later before he was fully awake hold
ing at the side of his bed silver
bowl filled with water. The New
Yorker stared in amazement at the
man and the bowl without the fainteSt
idea what his duty in the matter was.
The valet looked at him compassion
ately q moment before he came to his
assistance. Then he said with sug-
gestlon of pity for the ignorance of a
poor American:
Its to test the temperature for your
bath, sir"
It was a relief to the guest to realize
that he was not to do more than put
his finger into the water and say that
it was all right.-New York Sun.

HER ANSWER.
MADELINE Z. VAN PELT.

They were old friends, but they hadn't
met
In many. many years;
And the tide of life had hurried on,
With its joys and hopes and fears;-
But both the women had met at last
Old playmates once again.
They talked of girlhood's dreams now
| It's buoyant hopes, now slain.
"Ah, Kate" said Madge, you're not the
same
You've lost your charm of face
You've lost your pretty, rosy cheeks
| You've lost your form of grace.
Your chestnut hair has turned to gray,
Your lips have lost their red;
All things are changed, and soon ou,
! day
Will turn to night instead"
'Dear one," Kate said, "I've nothing lost
For here's my hair of brown
On Prue's dear head eldest born;-
And Bess has not frown
On her sweet face, that's just like mine
Of thirty years agone,-.
While Kitty's blue eyes dance and shine
Like sunlight in the morn.
'cMine shone in just the self same way
When you, dear, saw me last,
And Margaret's lips arc just as red
As mine in days long past.
No, no. my dear. I've nothing lost,
NV life is on the wane;-
My children have my own youth COST
In them I live again" -,

Throwing the Shoe.

The peasants of Southern France
have the credit Of originating the fam.
iliar custom of throwing an old shoe
after the newly wdeded pair. 1t was,
moreover. the rejected suitor who first
made it popular. The peasant bride is
conducted by her friends to her new
home, while the young husband is
made to halt at a couple Of hundred
yards from the house. If there is a
rejected suitor. he then arms himself
with an old wooden shoe and filings It,
with his best aim. at the bridegroom
as he makes a dash for the house.
When the shoe is thrown it is under
stood that the last feeling of Ill will
has been flung away with 1t.

AS it beat upon the shore,
And it chanted something to me
That it never had before.
With q long. resounding cadence,
And deep and solemn roll,
1t voiced the sin and sorrow
Or wrecked and stranded soul
[ wandered through the forest
When the wind swept past the trees;
And it seemed the whole creation
Prayed for help, upon its knees,
With wailing miserere
And with penitential tears,
Till felt that hope was dying
In gulf Of mocking fears.
But a birds song, sweet and joyous,
Rose and fell upon the air,
And child's laugh echoed near me,
And the sun shone everywhere;
And the minor changed to major,
AS the brook went laughing by;
For all things looked up and trusted
Him. who rules the earth and sky.
