There are, or have

There are, or have
been, but few cleverer business
men than the late Philip Armour
"A very genius of business, in
whose fertile brain we're born so
many new ideas, methods, systems.
He gave an audience to an adj
vertising agent, frankly admitting
that he was prejudiced against adj
vertising; but saw, or thought he
did, an idea in what the agent
said, and so became an advertiser.
This was several years ago, and
the Armours continue to be large
advertisers.
Do you think it possible that
they keep it up because they like
to see their name in the papers
or because they guess it
pays"'
If Philip Armour was not too
rich, too big, too busy to listen
to an advertising agent, may not
you, Mr.. Reader, find the time
and opportunity?

of life insurance business carried in New York

life insurance compared with the premiums really

SOFT IS THE MUSIC AND

From The Pail Mall Gazette

Soft is the music and tender the ring of it,
Tender and soft the flow of a stream
Sweet, you and to the lit and swing of it
Float, and you, down the maze of a dream.
These that around us, vague shapes of humanity
Close, and depart, and loom nearer and flee
What they all, dear, but shadow and vanity?
Nothing is real but YOU dear. and me.
All | can see is the light of the eyes of you,
All l can feel is your breath my face;
All can know is the speechless surprise of you
You and me gliding through aeons of space.
Life may have struck sorrow that skaters it
Foes may be troubling u.s. friends prove untrue;
Realms may be rising falling; what matters it,
Matters it, sweetheart, to me-Or to you
Now, in this hour-let us count not the cost to u.s.
Time enough after for grief and regret
Now, dream, dear be lost to US, lost to US,
Dream awhile-you and land forget

the people of northern New Mexico thought joint
hood, he replied:
1T but illustrates Senator Beverdges speech on the
growth of an idea year and half ago when joint
statehood first mentioned our people in Coax coun-
ty were very much set against it, Today venture say
that ninetenths of the people for it, and many of
them are for il first choice. If the question of
joint statehood is submitted to in northern or
ther northeastern New Mexico it will carry overwhem-
ingly There is mistake about that; anyone can find
that out by talking to the people up there now The

work eight hours and the work of the miners in the
