MAPS MAKE WAR NEWS PLAIN
Watch for the North American =
Great War Map Next
SUNDAY.

Sunday.
TO enable its readers to follow
intelllgently the momentous events
of the Japanese-Russian war, The
North American, Philadelphia's
newspaper, has gone to extreme
pains and unlimited expense in
preparing colored map of the
territory involved in the struggle.
Owing to the general lack that
prevails of exact knowledge of
the topography of the lands bor-
dering upon the war centre, the
situation of the towns, harbors,
ports and countries which are men
toned daily in the cable dispatches
in the North American, it is inn
practicable for the average person
to gain a comprehensive notion of
what is progressing in the far esat.
Those who would gladly spend
time in supplementing the tidings
that are read by them in the news
papers by researches in atlas or
gazetteer are often prevented from
doing this by lack of facilities.
1t is to place within the reach of
such a means of watching the
movements of the Russian and the
japanese fleets and troops step by
step as they immerse themselves
in the struggle that has only just
begun that the North American
has prepared this map.
To show its utility 1t is necessa-
ry only to think how few there are
that realize the immense expanse
of land and water that 60 to make
up the geographical details of the
war.
How many know that Russia,
planning for decades war Of con-
quest which has for its object the
gobbling Of Manchuria and terri
torial aggressions in other parts of
China, has expended nearly S4O0,-
OOO,OO in building the Trans-Si-
berian Railway from st. Peters
burg to the shores of the Japan
and the Yellow Seas!
How many know that this road,
5000 mile in length, is depended
upon by the Gar to enable him to
throw any part that may be nee
essary of his 100000 soldiers in
to Manchuria and China to crush
by force of numbers any nation
that might resist him!
How many realize that in order
for the Gar to bring his Baltic
fleet into the Yellow Sea it will he
necessary for the vessels to sail
Is, 900 miles, skirting Europe,
Asia and Africa!
How many can tell otf-hand the
relative positions of Korea, Japan,
Manchura, China, Port Arthur.
Chefoo. Chemulpo or Seoul!
All these points may be settled
instantly by reference to The North
Americans map.
This map will be given free with
each copy of next Sundays North
American. 1t is absolutely the
latest map out. 1t is printed in
four colors, and the spelling of the
names is verified by comparison
with the most recent government
reports.
No more valuable gift, either
from a standpoint of education OF
utility, has ever been presented by
newspaper to its readers.

Patronlgc Home.

viii keep thee" said Poor Rlcli
ard A truer axiom never was
uttered, and what is true of your
shop is true of your town; for
keep your town and your town
will keen you. So
Don't go out of town to shop.
PAtrouIze home merchants, for
they can serve you better and
cheaper than those of other cit.
les.
This Is logical, reasonable aud
readily understood.
Everything from traction en-
giues to darning needles, as well
as all other articles of usefulness
or luxury, can be purchased in
McConnellsburg By the people of
our town and vicinity to far bet
ter advantage than elsewhere.
If you are not quite convinced
of this fact, give u local merchant
the opportunity to demonstrate
it to YOU, and we will guarantee
he can and will prove 1t to you
over and over again to your per.
feet satisfaction and perhaps sur.
prise.
We have known it to be done
frequently.
Shopping in other cities than
your own is a delusion when it
comes to values.
While the price of Chicago
houses may seem lower, do you
consider the freight or express
you must pay, or the fact that
you buy and pay for the article
before you see it, thing you
would not do with your most
trusted home merchant.
Pride sometimes prompts it,
yet of what should a person be
prouder than of his or her own
city?
Business men of other places
covet your trade, of course, and
! they are to be commended IN
their endeavor to get it; but
when you buy, buy at home.
Local dealers are more anxious
for your patronage than any out
side firm, and will do more to
please you and keep 1t than any
man who has absolutely no inter
est in your town, your municipal
ty, your own business, and your
self.
People who shop away from
home receive no consideration
for the present or future. beyond
the securing of all the money
possible at that particular time.
it is obviously different when
you go to your home merchants
to purchase anything.
They want your permanent
patronage as much-yes, more
than they do your money for tina,
particular sale.
Does this permeate?
1t is never more important
than at this season of the year.
If we are in need of a little
credit do we go out of town tc
get it? No, we go to our home
merchants then when we have
the cash we should patronlze the
merchants who favored US with
credit when IN need of it,-no'
send our cash off to a bargain
house and at the same time stauc
off home merchants on bills o.
several months standing.
A good motto, Spend youl
money in the town you earn it
by so doing you will improv'
your town.

Closing Of Fork School.

The Fork school closed one OF the
best sessions in its history on Satur-
day with exercises which were at
tended and enjoyed by about FIVE
hundred persons. The school the
past year has been taught by Miss
Cyrilla Rutherford and the attend
ance has been good and the work
done of high order of excellence.
The children acquitted themselves
admirably in the exercises on Satur-
day. 4 splndid dinner was served
on the grounds. 1t was matter OF
very general regret that rain in the
afternoon cut off a part OF the recita-
tionS by the children.
Good music was furnished through
out the day by the Bachman Chapel
and Hayne bands and during the at-
ternoon the young people had very
pleasant dance.
