NUMBER 10

Ifthe business men Of Snyder coun-
ly who say that advertising does not
pay, would understand the technical
points how to make it pay, the six
newspapers of Snyder county would be
filled to overiiowing with advertise
ments, and the business men them
selves would understand that advertis-
ing does pay and that prior to that
time they had failed to make 1t nav.
The best test Of advertising is in the
money till. We are willing to be put
to the test on this question and request
every business man In Snyder county
or elsewhere to write to the Posr for
full particulars. We agree to give free
of charge our services in writing and
planning advertising matter for six
months to every business man in Sny-
der county who uses the Posi- as an ad-
vertising medium, If contracted for
within thirty days from the date Of
this paper. If you follow our advice
and your business does not improve
sufficient to warrant the outlay, then
say that advertising does not pay.
TO SCHOOL TEACHERS AND OTHERS,
To every school teacher in Snyder
county and every other person who
has the ability to write good English
and possesses good common sense, we
wish to say that if you will write to
the editor of the POsT and say that
you are interested in improving your
self and want to earn two or three
times as much rs you are now earning,
you will receive prospectus of the ad
writing course, explaining the whole
matter and when you have completed
the course, whether you follow ad-
writing or not, if you do not get twice
as much value as you have paid for,
you can claim and get your money re-
funded. Princely salaries are paid to
ad writers. John Wanamaker PAYS
his advertising manager $lO,C COO year,
more than Mr.. Wanamaker received
while he was Postmaster General.
Quite number are receiving 5000 and
many $500, $1,000 and $4,000. These
are only the best ad writers in the
country. .e poorest Of them get $40
to S25 week. What others get is due
to their earnest work. What Won v,nl
get is dependent upon yourself. The
booklet will explain the whole matter.
1t is free. Write for it.
In addition to the persons enrolled
from PENNSYLVANIA by the above named
Business Colleges, students have been
registered from Illinois and Delaware.
This is certainly remarkable showing
considering the fact that only two in
sertions of a small ad was placed in l5
or 20 of the largest daily newspapers of
the country, and that only within the
past thirty days for the first time. Mid
dleburgh need not be ashamed of her
advertising school, because it gives the
most complete course Of instruction in
advertisement writing, Planning and
Management now offered to the public.
If those interested will write us, we
will cheerfully furnish further evil
dencc of what has been here set forth.

IMPROVING ON NATURE.

For years the scientific gardener has been gathering apples from pear trees, and picking cherries and damsons off the same branches, and, though the quest of the black tulip has so far been in vain, the blue rose, we are told, has at last arrived at Kew Gardens. Years ago horticulturists were interested in the announcement that nurseryman at Essy, in Slavonia, had secured a wild rose from Servia which was said to give blooms of a deep violet blue, and that, after two years of cultivation, the rose retained it's color. But there is still an uncertainty whether the blue tint was natural or produced by chemi- cal means, in the same way as another horticulturist is known to have produc- ed a black rose. Most people will be content. no doubt, with the ''red, red rose that sweetly blooms in June,'' and nobody will very much deplore the fail ure of the efforts to produce roses of black, or blue or green or any other unnatural color.
 More pardonable, perhaps is the hob- by of the man who would grow a uni- versal fruit tree. Even this, of course, is contrary to all the laws of nature

ARTISTIC DIPLOMAS.

Which Will be Presented to Graduates
 of the Hogarth Business College.
 Professor J. M Lee, proprietor of and the leading instructor in the Hogarth Business college in this city, has secur- ed the handsomely designed diplomas which he will award to those who suc- cessfully and satisfactorily complete the commercial course in the Hogarth Business college The diploma is two feet by eighteen inches in size. The en- craving is very artistic production and represents the rays of light and learning Illuminating the clouds of ig- norance, while very appropriately de-
 signed allegorical figure represents art science and literature. The allegory is on a scroll and is surrounded by a laurel wreath. The entire diploma was
 originally designed by Professor Lee and is one of the finest of it's kind awarded by any similar institution of learning in the east.
 The only blank space on the en-
 gravure is left so for the recipients name. This Is filled by Professor Lee, who is one of the finest photographers in the country, as is well known. The diploma in a handsome frame is on ex- hibition in one of the display windows of Hewitt's drug store on Chapel street. l Professor Lees Hogarth Business col lege, which is in the First National ! bank building, is already prospecting greatly, although it was resumed only a few weeks ago. His success with his
 many pupils has won him high repu- tation as a practical and able instruc- l tor.
