Certainly no greater novelty has been
seen on the Keith stage than tho marvel
Gus exhibition given by Moug Toon and
Moung Chef, the Burmese football play
ers and athletes, who are the top-line
novelty Of the Keith bill this week.
These performers are not particularly
well developed. nor have they large, ath-
letlc looking frames; on the contrary.
they are tall. slender. wiry looking saw
ages with the most astounding control OF
the suuscles ever before demonstrated on
any local stage. The feats they perform
would seem incredible until one has seen
them, but they certainly awoke the hear
tiest admiration and wonder OF everyone
who has been TO Keith's this week. Foot
ball players and all devotees Of this sport
are much IN evidence at that theatre this
week. and thss act r. being much talked
about around town.

sufficient to state that in it the best

Boy Races for Life.

After thrilling race for his life Dar-
lington kulp, aged II, nephew of ex-
Congressman Kulp, killed big black
bear in Centre county forests Saturday
morning. Kulp left the lumber camp
on hunt for big game, and about nine
O'Clock came across 300 pound black
bear. He hastily iiredoLe shot at bruin,
wounding him in the leg. Maddened
by the pain the angry animal advanced
on the young hunter, who after firing
again and missing, took to his heels.
An exciting race ensued, the wounded
bear gaining slowly on his victim.
Young Kulp, expecting every moment
to be in the animals clutches, loaded
as he ran. When the bear was less
than twelve feet away, ready for the
final spring, he rose on his hind feet,
and Kulp quickly turning took delib-
crate aim and shot the animal through
the heart.-Milton Standard.

COMPOUND INTEREST

The trouble with most adver-
tisers is that they expect imme-
diate returns of large proper
tons. One prominent advertiser
illustrates the principle Of advcr-
tising in this way:
"The money expended for
advertising is the same ns
IL placed at interest. The
profits from the advertising
are virtually the interest ON
the Investment.
'The sums spent for advertising
are properly chargeable to cap
ital account because the result.
ing good will is something that
has value. which, If the adver-
tising has been properly done,
can usually be sold for the face
value Of the Investment.
"The rate of interest is deter
mined by the skill with which
the investment Is made.
"Just us the quickest way to
increase invested wealth is by
comp0unding the interest. just SO
the quickest way to realize re-'
suits from advertising is to COM
pound the returns. ."-Advertising
Experience.
