Please listen to q short talk upon q
most vitality important subject-one
which Is greatly disturbing the bust
ness world to-day.
You have doubtless heard Of the
word Substitution" You have prob
ably read that Substitution is fraud"
Tack that saying firmly in your mind
and keep it there. 1t Is worth some
thing. 1t Is t~rue-almost invariably.
You call at a store and ask for an
article of a certain brand or manufac-
ture, one which has been thoroughly
advertised for years, and which has
earned an excellent reputation. The
dealer says heres something just as
good for less money" That dealer
thereby usually tells a direct false
hood. He knows that the article
which he offers you at a lower price
Is inferior, but the point is hat it
yields him a greater profit; hence his
desire to substitute.
You may ask if an article is superior
just because it is advertised. Yes, it
is, and here's why. The many we'll
known houses which spend millions
of dollars every year in the good pub
locations OF the country are managed
by men of brains and wide business
experience, and these men know only
too we'll that unless an article has
merit there is absolutely no business
n in spending good money to adj
vertise it. 1t does not pay to adver-
tise any article Of general use for a
short time only. Every advertiser
must wait some time before his adver-
Using has created the desired impress.
sion and while he is waiting his goods
must have time to prove whether or
not they are good. If they are good,
they stick; if not, they do not. and if
they were not good and did not stick,
would this experienced business man
continue to spend good money adver-
Using the g~oodS-throw good money
after bad as it were? Never. He
has too much business sense.
The average article which you see
advertised month after month in good
publications is itself good. Buy an
advertised article. 1t is the true safe
way.
When you are buying ask for what
you want and get what you ask for.
Remember! Substitution is Fraud"

The Carnival Progress is Rapid
Many Attractions will Be Here.
Last Night There Was a Large Meet
ing Of the Lodge, With
Initiation.
ISLAND QUEEN EXCURSION SOON

The many attractions that the Bos-
took Ferari company will have in Pa
duoah for the Elks Jubilee carnival
promise to surpass anything ever seen
in Kentucky.
The Bostook company is one Of the
largest in the world, and one OF the
costliest and most reliable.
This is the same company that has
furnished the amusement at nearly
every Elks' fair or merchants carni-
val in America. The gentlemen in
charge of the local carnival are to be
congratulated upon securing such a
meritorious aggregation Of amuse-
ments. Their reputation for providing
clean exhibitions devoid Of all vulgar
features is well known. 1t has been
especially guaranteed that nothing
but the very best will be furnished by
them and all exhibitions will be of
such character that ladies and chill
dren without male escorts can visit
with perfect impunity. This is as 1t
should be- for the carnival period is
one Of merrymaking for every one, ani
the Day of the cheap, sensational show
that attempts to cater to men only is
past.
This company erects none OF the
old.time, worn.out banner fronts, but
b sautifully embellished gold carved
exteriors. and every entrance to a
show a perfect panel structure painted
By the best scenic artists in the eoun-
try, done in oil and gorgeous colors.
In fact, when erected, 1t represents
in miniature permanent worlds
fair Midway, and instead Of entering
cheap canvas enclosure it really ap-
pears as If one was walking into a
we'll appointed theater or place of pub
lie amusement.
The aggregate cost of this wonder
full enterprise runs into six figures ;
chief among its grand attractions is
the only original Bostock. Ferari
trained wild animals exhibition di-
rectly imported from Europe. With
magnificent and palatisl entrance
that in itself cost more than the en-
tire equipment of some Of the larg-
est circuses in the country.
4 twenty. five thousand dollar Crys-
tai Maze is another beautiful exolu-
sive feature with the aggregation.
Electra, the flying lady, has been
provided with luxuriantly appointed
establishment. There will also be a
carefully prepared and artistically ar
ranged exhi bition Of Sapho in poses
plastique. Beautiful Turkish theater,
with its congress Of native Turks,
Arabs, Syrians, and fascinating Egyp-
tian female entertainers will DO prom
inent upon the Midway. Another
amusement will be exclusively devot-
ed TO the exhibition Of Edison's latest
and hest animated pictures.
The German village, feature at
every street fair and carnival, with
its quaint love and patriotic songs Of
the fsthorland, provide cosmopolitan
attractions to be found nowhere else.
Countless other small amusements
that help 10 make the carnival IA
nous provide a place OF recreation
for the overflow. All are assured of
ample. clean, instructive, and salts
flying amusement at very small
cost.

Sir r. Burnand's Imprinted Joke.

Punch and TO accept a knighthood,
and probably robbed the Jesuits of a
distinguished member of their order
When novice at the Jesuit Sem
mary, ManreSa. near Barnes, Sir
Frank found much of the work uncon-
genial. Having persuaded the princi-
pal to show him how windows should
be cleaned, and having induced him
to step upon a broad window ledge, he
shut the window and left him there.
His connection with the Jesults came
to an abrupt termination shortly aft

But the master did not heed it. Say

No one can truthfully say that Nine.
PATHS voice is as fresh to-day as it
was thirty years ago. but every one
must admit that is is marvellous, con-
sidering her age, for she has turned
60. AS for her style and method,
they are unimpaired. 1t seemed to
me as though her songs had been Sr-

but l may be mistaken. Her trills
were liquid and brilliant as far as
they went. but the famous one. None,

Do you remember that trill? And
then the way. later, that she played
with the rye as a kitten with q

big. round gurgle and then came to
an end. 1t was in the simpler things

been for years. An article publish ed
recently in London paper tells a
different story. 1t cays she "eats
she takes exercise as she chooses. she
has no physician in attendance. She
has no nerves. If this be true times

in New York she had he'd own cook,
her own doctor and her own phys

had them all over her body. She sell

and when she did she drove in a
closed carriage and stuffed cotton in
her ears to keep the cold out.
Nine. Patti has not yet succeeded
in selling Craig-y-Nos, her Welsh cas-
tie, and she still spends the most OF
her time there. The place has cost
her a fortune and it takes a fortune
to run it. Like every prima donna
that ever was born, Nine. Patti loves
the country. 1t is, of course, the con
trast to the excitement of their pub.
lie life that makes singers and actors
eager for the peace and quiet of
green fields.
! say again Nine. Patti is wonder
full woman, and it is still a genuine
pleasure TO hear her sing. ] would
much rather hear her, even though
her voice may have lost some Of it's
freshness, than most Of the famous
singers of to-day. Patti was born, not
made. and she still sings with all her
old time grace and charm. The young
girl alluded to at the beginning of this
letter was enchanted. Il feel she

Why Rats Are Safe in India,

Although the famine over the great

Central Indian states is less wide

ertheless be much suffering during

pl0 are already on government relief
work.
The rats have to a large extent dis
appeared, but have destroyed a con-
siderable portion of the cotton crop.
The inhabitants of Gujerat are con-
vinced that the rats are reincarna-
tions of their friends who died in the
last famine, and it is for this reason
that the British officers have found it
impossible to get any assistance in
destroying the pests.
The Jennings daily record., 1902-09-30

AS far as manners and appearance
go Nine. Patti was as young and 90
quettish as ever. She was dressed
in pale yellow with a picture hat"
perched upon her black and curling
hair. To have seen her running airi-
ly up the inclined plane that leads to
the platform of Albert hall. bowling
gayly to right and left, you would not

She is wonderful woman. is Nine.

Gen, Sherman His Idol

While Gen. Sherman lived in New
York he occupied one night each week
the proscenium box on the south side
OF the stage of Daly's theater. 1t was
called "Sherman's box" The gentle
German who played the bass viol
whispered to his fellow musicians
that the generals tobacco juice was
destroying his fiddle. The old soldier
spat in sort of spray that sprinkled
things in the neighborhood of the big
fiddle. "Why don't you complain to
Mr.. Daly?" asked the leader of the
orchestra. Complain of Cheneral
Shairman? Never! He was my com
mander in the war und l would nod
comblain if he spid efery nide in my
face! was The reply.
