PAPER TRADE IN TURKEY.
In 1903 $4oo, 900 Worth of tho Ar ticle for Making Cigarettes -f
 Was Imported. nr

Tn the year 1903 Turkey in Europe imported paper and cardboard to the value of about $500,O0o and cigarette pa per to the value of $400. 900. Austria and Italy were the chief sources of supply.
 The German consul at Saloniki says large quantities of all sorts of paper. including wall paper, enter that port for distribution throughout Turkey. This paper trade Is in Austrian hands. Diff ferent manufacturers in Austria com- bine in sending out commercial travel CTS to Turkey, one traveller showing the products of several Austrian paper mills. The German consul general at Constantinople, in report to his gov- ernment, says that Turkey is one of England's best markets for cotton yarns and cotton piece goods, taking in 1903 nearly $2,5O0,000 worth of cotton yarns and $15, zoo, 900 worth of cotton piece goods. Within the last few years Italy has greatly increased her exports of cot ton textiles to Turkey and is becoming a strong competitor of England in that market. If American manufacturers of cotton goods were to give energetic and intelligent attention to the Turkish mar ket, they would probably find. 1t good one. Nse @

TORTOISE FIGHT IS FUNNY
Battle Between Shell-Covered Am imals May Continue Long Time
 Without Injury to Either.

Listen" said the farmer, leaning on his hoe. From the next field came a sound of rapping, a sound as of sharp knocks on a door. What is that" said the city man. "A tortoise fight" the farmer answered. "We'n go and see 1t. They made their way toward the rap- ping sound, relates the Baltimore Her aid, and in little while they came upon two box tortoises that were fighting hard. The creatures fought in strange way. They made at one another with their heads protruded. but, at the mo- ment of collision, each tried to use his front flap for shield, and the result of this prudence was that not the heads but only the shells of the tortoises hurtled together. There was bang. Then the fighters backed off and prepared for an other round. The two men watched them till the spectacle became weari- some Then they returned to the pota- to patch.

HOLD FUNERAL IN A TENT.
Big Canvas Put to Many Strange Uses Serves as Church to
 Mourners.

In Kendall county, H., there is biz canvas tent that has been made to serve for an odd mixture of purposes. For many years it covered regulation saw dust ring in which there were all kinds of performances by man and beast. On other occasions it was made use of for revivals, and has been hauled around the country from place to place for many purposes. This year Aurora bloomed out as Chautauqua town. and the tent sheltered big audiences intent on hearing lectures, recitations, and speeches from well-known takers. Music of all kinds has at odd times filled the big inclosure. However. the oldest purpose to which 1t was ever put came when Nels o. Cassem, a well-known Kendall county man. fell from his wagon as he was driving along the pub lie highway and broke his neck. Cas- sem was a well-known character, . farmer who in ell of that section was known as the "king of the Norwegians. He was known to be worth several hum dred thousand dollars in valuable lands. and the funeral promised to be larger than any church in Yorkville or Aurora would hold. One of the sons resorted to a unique expedient. He hired the big tent and stretched it out on one of the beautiful meadows over which his fa- ther had roamed for so many years. and the funeral sermon was thus preached under canvas.

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING.
Goes to People at the Right Time
 and in the Right Way.


 Newspaper advertising is the best for every business, no mat ter what its nature, if it relies upon the patronage of the public generally.
 What would you think of a man who overlooked the very best in a line of goods and took up with the middle or fair or poor or absolutely worthless?
 When you buy publicity you want above all else to be sure that you are getting what you pay for. The daily newspaper goes into the very homes of the people and is always read by some of the family, and usually read by all of the family.
 If your ad is breezy or catchy or if it has a message that will mean dollars and cents to the reader you can depend upon get ting results.
 If your business is so dead and dull that you can't say anything fresh or breezy about it you'd better change your advertising man or quit your business.
 If you can't find any plausible reason why it should be advan- tageous for people to buy goods from you instead of from the other fellow, you haven't an ex- cuse for being in business. Bet ter apologize for taking up val uable space and get out of busi- ness.
 Are newspapers the best me- diums for advertising?
 Yes-emphatically yes.
 Why shouldn't they be the best?
 They present your advertise ment to man while he is in a receptive frame of mind. He has nothing to do just then but read, and he reads the headlines of your ad as readily as he does the headlines of the news arti. cles. If your ad interests hin he'll read the adjust in the same way as he reads the news he cares to read.
 The chance to talk to a mar about your business and to talk ito him when he is not busy with other things is just what yol want. isn't it?
 The logic of newspaper adver tising applies with added force Ii you are appealing to women Not only do women read adj when they read the paper, bu they look for the ads of regula' advertisers. When you get peo ple to look for your ad you cal depend on getting a liberal shar' of their patronage.
 If you do have a reason for be ing alive, then you'd better tel people about it. How shall the, know about you unless you tel them, and how can you tell ther unless you advertise? How sha you advertise best if not in tn newspapers?
 Successful advertisers alway use newspapers largely.
 If you would succeed, do like wise. Edgar A. Pettingill.

asked to see the head of the house he
was berated by the woman, who threw
pan of dirty dishwater on him. Then
Hllzinger came out and when McMa-
hon attempted to demonstrate, he SAYS.
Hilzinger attacked him with a shovel.
That ended the argument so far as
Mcmahon was concerned, but Mrs.
Mcmahon hurried to his rescue. and
was, Mcmahon says, struck a severe
blow.

for Mr.. and Mrs. Hilzinger, and in the

hon is able to appear in court. The
hearing is set for Aug. 3.
