Cidentally gives us definition of
politeness as follows: "A free exer-
else of that consideration for others
which is is an innate constituent
in the make up of a gentleman"
Consideration for others we regard
as the true definition of poiteness,
but too often we find 1t the reverse
developing into seIfshness or
or "crankiness." The true gen.
tlemen or lady is always willing
to make sacrifices for others, The
boor or ill>mannered person is al,
ways conspicuous for objectlng.

PRINTERS INK AND VOTERS

w. L. Douglas who was last
Tuesday elected governor of the
Bay state, has demonstrated what
printers ink will do in politics as
we'll as in business. The Doug
las shoes are known the world
over and the picture of the max
er appears in every eye which is
accustomed to reading the news
papers.
When M. Douglas was nonlinat-
ed for governor he bought space in
all the newspapers Of the state.
He filled his ads with matter re-
lating to the Douglas shoes, and
the manner it had grown from the
cobblers' bench TO an establishment
employing thousands Of men daily.
These ads were paid for at regular
rates, occupying advertising col
umns, and set in advertising style
Democratic and republican papers
alike contained the Douglass ads.
Being asked for a campaign CON
tribution, he responded cheerfully
but requested that it be spent in
advertising the candidates through
the regular advertising columns Of
the newspapers. Mr.. Douglass's S
picture has appeared in every news
paper in the land during the last
ten years and is known to every
one. The photograph of this pop
ular shoe is as familiar as that of
President Roosevelt or Mr.. Bryan.
The election returns show that
Mr.. Douglas run I25,ooo ahead
of his ticket. Roosevelt carried
the state by so,ooo, yet Douglas
was elected governor by something
like $4,000.
No doubt Mr.. Douglass believes
more in advertising today than ev-
er in his life, although his expendi-
lures along this line have multi
piled into the millions. His adver-
tisements were received by the op-
position papers, and could not be
refused for partisan reason, SO
Douglas practically had no oppo-
sition utterances.-El Reno Ameri-
can.

SGusa Coming

The Incompatible Sousa and his
world famous band, being once
more engaged upon concert tour,
will be heard here on Tues. Nov. %
at the opera house which will mark
the first appearance here ofSousa-
His third successful tour ofEurope,
during which he played in no less
than thirteen different countries,
occupied the greater part of last
year, since when the popular con-
ductor has been enjoying his first
real vacation for eight years.
A Sonsa concert is exactly the
right kind of entertainment for the
people. His music makes the
blood course swifteI through the
bopy; it imparts feeling of elation
and promotes good nature. 1t is
satisfying to the ear, to the intelli
gence and to the senses at the same
time. 1t is good music, popular
music, and interpreted by the
greatest of band conductors through
the medium of the greatest Of all
bands. 1t has its well defined
place in the musical scheme of the
world, and the fact that Sousa has
been accepted by all the musical
centers Of the world is anassurance.
of its positive intrinsic artistic
worth.
There will be no positive change
in the character Of the Sousa con
certs, but Mr.. Sousa will have
much that is novel and of immedi-
ate Interest to present to his audi
ences. Estelle Liebling, soprano,
Jessie Straus, violinist and Herbert
L, Clark, cornetist, are his chief
soloists.

All at the Funeral

The town that never has any
thing to do in a public way is on
the road to the cemetery. Any
citizen who will do nothing for his
town is helping to dig the grave.
a man that will cuss his town
furnishes the coffin. The one who
is so selfish as to have no
time from his business to give to
city affairs is making the shroud.
The merchant who will not ad-
Yertise it driving the hearse. The
man who is always pulling back
from any public enterprise throws
boquets on the grave. The man
who is so stingy and selfish as to
be always howling hard times
breaches the funeral and sings the
doxology and thus the town lies
buried free from all sorrow and
aIe.-Enid Wave.
