The thildrens Day.

Christmas is the day OF all days ior
the children. Before the joys of one
Christmastide are forgotten the little
ones are looking forward to the next
visit of Santa Claus. They are puz-
ziing their pretty heads and keeping
bright eyes watching to learn what
would be the very incest thing to give
each member of the family. They are
counting the pennies in the small
pocketDook or wondering how much
wealth. is hidden in the iron bank
which Is not to be eopened until the week
before Christmas. They are stitching
bits of fancy work in which the large
black knots would be ungainly were II
not Tor tn" love which Is wound with
IN each one. They are wondering and
wondering what dear Mr.. and Mrs.
santa Claus are making and If the blue
maze which hangs over the house on
cold mornings is really the smoke
from Santa Claus pipe. which he puffs
as he watches his good wife make all
kinds of Christmas delights. The chill
dfeh are whispering and looking
wise, hnding mysterious packages and
"ritihs letters-such letters. But
Santa Claus knows the universal lam
guage No line is too crooked, no pic
ture too dim for his love to under
stand. After all these pleasures comes
Christmas eve. Then the children are
in a quandary. Shall they sit up to
watch for the coming of Santa Claus?
Shall they go to bed early. so morn;ne
will come quicker, or shall they keen
awake to hear the jingle OF bells on
the roof 1t would all be such fun,
But dropping eyes and nodding heads
answer all questions and far of in
dreamland are the children while San
Ia Claus steals about on tip-toe filling
stockings trimming trees and doing
all that is within his power to add TO
the joy of the breaking day.

teresting things about interesting goods

Men talk of the secret of successful
advertising, but it is all very plain. The
essentials are to offer what People
want, at fair prices. and to offer it in
way that will make readers know
they want 1t. The art in writing an
advertisement is to speak as the inter
ested and well-informed merchant
would speak to prospective customer.
The mere appearance Of a business

increase his trade. Every business man.
however. is able to give facts about his
establishment which will encourage
people to deal with him. To state such
facts clearly IN a newspaper is the prin-
cipal secret of successful advertising
The idea that it takes a number of
impressions to make the average ad-
vertisement effective is not new. Forty
years ago an English advertiser said
to the publisher Of the Cornhill Maga-
zine: I'VE don't consider that an ad-
vertisement seen for the first time BY
reader is worth much. The second
time 1t counts for something. The third
time the readers attention is arrested:
the fourth time he reads 1t through and
thinks about it; the fifth makes a pur
chaser OF him. 1t takes time to soak

COMMUNITY OF INTEREST"
Some OF the Effects of the Great Rail-
road Changes Which Are Occurring.

Some OF the Effects of the Great Rail-
road Changes Which Are Occurring.
Community OF Interest" seems to be
the watchword among the great rail-
road corporations, nowadays, and Ger
tain persons who are apt to decide
upon topics of general interest, especi-
ally new ones, without thinking upon
the facts, have supposed that this
meant an arrangement of interest only
to the railway companies participating
in the deals, traffic arrangements,
leases, etc., which show in the stock
transactions and engage the thought
and ability of traffic and passenger
agents. 1t is undoubtedly the financial
interest of the corporations which
moves their officers to enter into con-
tracts. but the consideration of this
topic necessarily includes that Of the
convenience, comfort and attractions
which they can offer to their patrons.
If competition be less intense, and rate
wars be relegated to the dead past,
it means that more attention will be
paid to those inducements which will
bring business to up-to-date lines of
transportation.
An instance of the early profit of the
public Is most worthy of mention. I'm
der the plan of arrangements known
as Community of Interest" very close
relations have been established by the
Missouri Pacific System with the Den
yer and Rio Grande railway, the Rio
Grande Western Railway and the
Southern Pacific Railway and other
lines diverging from junction points.
So that now, for the first time In the
railway history of the country, a pas
senger may take train at st. Louis and
remain therein until he has reached
San Francisco. The route is one of the
most popular because Of its great
scenic beauty, and because it gives the
traveller the benefit of variety of al
titude and climate, taking him across
the smiling plains of Kansas into the
wonderful canyons of Colorado, and
through her most noted mining locali-
ties, and by the great inland salt sea,
where a great religious organization
has builded a city Of magnificence in
an oasis of the desert. and whose po-
litical power has been maintained in
spite of the objections of the concen-
trated power of the United States and
in the face of all the obstacles which
have ever, from the dawn of Christi
anity, commended against its establish
ment by any sect or creed.
These places are of great interest to
the traveller of today, and since they
may be visited with such ease in the
magnificent trains of this monster sys-
tenn of railway, the tide of tourist traf-
fic is being turned to them by natural
selection. The Missouri Pacific and
the Rio Grande reach all points in
Colorado, Utah and the West, and thus
Community of Interest among the
railroads already benefits the public in
such an everyday way as to convince
the thoughtless person that he must
revise his hasty Judgment

Cuban Action on Plat Amendment
Not Substantial Compliance.
DISAPPOINTMENT IN CUBA.

Washington, June 3.-The president
and the ca binet decided that the action
of the Cuban constitutional convention
was not a substantial compliance
with the terms of the Platt amendment
The secretary of war will convey this
fact to the convention.
Havana, June 3.-The decision of the
United States government not to ac-
cept caused great surprise and disap-
pointment to those members of the
convention who voted in favor of the
constitution as adopted. Two leading
conservatives said in substance that
they had reason to suppose that the
constitution would be acceptable to
Washington, and that otherwise they
would not have voted for the majority
report as submitted. They also point
ed out that in order to avoid possi-
bility of rejection the majority report
had been changed at the last moment,
thus accepting the Plat amendment
as passed by congress.
SIT is true said one of the Conser-
natives, that the interpretations OF
Tile cAp1dudOlOAS VI INC 1Oi1SE 1SSOld-
ton which were offered by Governor
General Wood and Secretary Root,
together with the Washington COM
missions report, were included with
the Platt amendment as an appendix
to the constitution, but when we voted
on the report it was with but one pur-
pose in view, namely, to accept the
Plat amendment.
Both delegates said they doubted
that the convention would now recon
slider it's action, as the fight had been
won only by one vote. General Wood
said: 81 never understood that the
explanations of Secretary Root would
be Incorporated in the acceptance.
l always considered that the conven-
ton regarded these as explanations
merely, and that they would not form
part of the acceptance"

VALIDITY to be Tested.

Topeka, june 1.-The validity of the

in the future could not be regarded as

the provisions of the constitution could
not be capitalized. Judge A. II. Hor-

the supreme court to compel Cole to
register the county bonds.

a BIaoksmith's strange Experience.

Goodland, Kan, June 3.-N. E. AL
bertsOn, our leading blacksmith has
been a great sufferer from rheumatism.
He was SO bad that he could not sleep
for the great pain in his arms and
shoulders. He had been afflicted for
years, but lately he was so mucn worse,
that he thought he would have to give
up his shop altogether.
Then a strange thing happened. A
friend of his recommended new
medicine called Dodd's Kidney Pills,
said to be cure for Rheumatism. He
commenced to use them, and at once
began to recover. His pain has all left
him. and he is a we'll man today, and
entirely free from any symptom OF
rheumatism
To say that he is thankful, is putting
1t very mildly. He is delighted
DOdd's Kidney Pills deserve credit
for having cured this very severe and
almost hopeless case.
From recent reports, there does not
seem to be anything that they will not
cure, as very bad cases of Bright's Dis
ease, Diabetes, Dropsy, rheumatism,
and Heart Trouble. have been cured by
Dodd's Kidney Pills, even after having
been given up by our best doctors.
