AS TO ADVERTISING.

One of the W papers published at
Vandalia, Mo-, contains more advertising
by home merchants than do both of the
Montgomery City papers. According to
the opinion of some of our merchants here,
those Vandalia fellows are simply throwing
their money away. Still those men do ad-
~vcrtise and they have advertised largely for
years. The TRIBUNE Office spends over
500. every month with home merchants and
the most of this comes from all parts of the
county and some from outside of the county
and state. Now, this is not fair. This thing
of two thirds of our home merchants refus-
ing to advertise and trying to steal the trade
from the people who come here to trade with
those who do advertise is all wrong. If all
our merchants would say as much through
the home papers to attract trade here as the
papers do, thousands of dollars would be
spent here that now goes to other trading
points in the county. We do not believe
the Vandalia merchants are fools or spend
thrifts.

A preacher at Fort Scott. Kansas.
ly. Here it is: "a word to You all. Post
mortem praises are in the air. People kiss
their dead who never stoop to kiss their liv-
ing; they hover over the Baskets in
hysteric sobs, but failed to throw their arms
around their loved ones who are fighting the
stern battles of life. A word of cheer to the
struggling soul in life is worth more than all
the roses of Christendom piled high on cas-
ket covers. The dead can't smell flowers, but
the living can scatter them broadcast in
their pathway, therefore, and pluck out the
thorns before it is too late.
