DEMAND FOR ADVERTISING

If the demand for advertising
space in the ISLANDER continues to
increase as ii has during the past
few months it will soon be necessary
to enlarge the paper in order to
avoid encroaching too much upon the
reading matter space. If this de-
mand was more largely local instead
of coming as it does principally from
foreign" advertisers, the publisher
would have little hesitancy in making
another change, neccssitating the
expenditure of much larger sum
for new machinery than he could
hope to realize in increased business
for number of years, He would
much rather sell his advertising
space to business men resident in the
county than to non-residents and he
believes that if foreign" advertisers
find it profitable to use it, as they
evidently do, county merchants who
do not advertise are missing one of
the best opportunities they have for
increasing their trade. The ISLANDER
devotes much space to Orcas and
Lopez news and works as faithfully
and imparhally to advance the inter
ests of the people Of those islands as
it does for the people of San Juan,
and yet not a single Orcas or Lopez
merchant spends dollar for adver-
Using. 1t is little wonder that non.
resident advertisers, especially de.
partment stores, find those islands a
fruitful field for trade.

 which most air enters the room place a large block of ice in a deep tray.
 Open the window and cover the open ing with Q curtain of bath toweling, the lower edge of which will rest in the tray behind the ice. The curtain should be thoroughly wet before put. ting up; the melting Ice will keep 1t damp.
 Arrange ferns or vines around the ice and pin them with decorative effect over the face of the curtain.
 The temperature of the room may be considerably lowered by this device. which also furnishes a charming dec. oration.

A damp cupboard or storeroom is practically useless, but the damp may easily be banished. The plan is to put . box or bucket of lime in the cup board or storeroom, as the case may be.
