INDIANA REMOVED BY Gov
ERNOR HANLY.

Indianapolis, Sept. 15.- Charging
that David z. Sherrick, auditor CT

cusable violation of the law and a
gross betrayal OF public trust in the

to the state in private affairs of his
own Governor Hanly has entered an
executive order declaring that, by rea
son of the embezzlement Of public
funds, the Office of state auditor was

times. The resignation not forthcon-
ing the order declaring the vacancy

LEADERS DISCUSS STATUS OF AFFAIRS

London, Sept. 15.-Dr. Nansen, the
Arctic explorer, who recently has been
active in Norwegian politics, and
Captain Wallenberg, a member of the
Swedish riksdag, who are both in
London, declared during the day that
their respective countries desired
nothing but peaceful outcome of the
present crisis and appeared to be
the negotiations. Both said that the
question of the demolition of the
forts would be the only possible cause
Of rupture.
DR.. Nansen said Norway was will
ing to give up the new forts on the
frontier, but strenuOusly opposed the
demand that the new portions Of the
old fortresses of Fredricksteen and
KOngsvinger should be demolished,
leaving nothing but historic ruins.
This question, which is now before
the conference, Norway regards as
constituting a critical stand as Nor
way would sooner fight than give up
the fortresses. KongsVinger is. far
from the frontier and is important
for the defense OF the capital. Nor
way does not menace the Swedish
frontier and with the exception Of
tredricksteen Norway is willing to
yield the outer line OF forts.
Dr.. Nansen added that it was quite
untrue that Norway had been prepar-
ing for war. At the present moment
she had more than $4,000 men under
arms and only a few ships ready.
Such an absurd folly as war seemed
impossible.
Captain Wallenberg said: "The one
desire of Sweden is for peaceful
settlement. There is no reason for
war. The question Of the demolition
of the forts is the only one which
could possibly occasion rupture. But
we insist on the demolition of the
forts close to the frontier. l have
every reason to believe that Sweden
will offer no objection to an arbitra-
ton treaty as soon as Norway is an
Independent state. l firmly believe
that a peaceful settlement will be ar
rived att

of General Prince Amilakhoveri, for

measures which he adopted when he
was sent on special mission to
pacify the Caucasus The revolution
lists threatened the local priests with
death if they attempted to offer

HURRY.

How quickly we Americans ex-
haust life. With what painting
haste we pursue everything. Every
American you meet seems to be
late for a train. Hurry is stamp
ed in the wrinkles of the AmAri-
can face. We pride ourselves up
on being practical men, men who
strike sledge-hammer blows in our
business, men who make business
of recreation, even. We are men
of action, we die without it; we
go faster and faster as che years
60 by, speed our machinery to the
utmost. stretch the silver cord of
life until it snaps. We have not
even leisure to die a natural death,
we go at high pressure until the
boiler bursts. We have actually
changed the type of our diseases
to suit our changed constitution.
Instead of the lingering maladies
of our fathers, we drop down and
die of heart disease or apoplexy,
now common, formerly SO rare.
Even death has adopted our terri
BILE gait. If we could epend q
few hours each day in the home
circle or romping with the child
rem, it would Tighten our days and
increase our happiness. Let's try
it.

ADVERTISING.

First get the right sort of goods
in the right location, at the right
prices, and "then make a fuss
about it" in the best paper you
can find.
Don't say what everybody else
IN your line is saying, and never
publish general ad. There are
800 days in the year, on each of
which you can talk in the news
papers. Don't try to tell all you
know about your store every day.
Talk of several items each time if
you like, but say something def
mite about each one.
When you advertise something
Of special interest in the paper,
fill the window with it and have
it prominently displayed in the
store. Have some neat tickets
printed and hung up above or near
the goods.
Be sure that all the clerks know
what Is going on. See that every
clerk reads every advertisement
every day. Then they will under
stand just what you are trying to
do-just what the goods are, and
how they happen to be SO cheap
or so good. or both.
Then keep it up. People are
forgetful. They have to think
pretty hard to. remember the vice
presidential candidate two cam
paigns back, and yet he was pretty
well advertised at the time.
John Wsnamaker once said, "to
discontinue an advertisement is
like taking down your sign"
That is just the idea. You have
sign above your door to let
people know who you are and what
you are doing. That's what your
ad does. 1t merely multiplies
your sign. 1t let's thousands of
people know what you have to sell.
