A. Good Lesson.

Rapid City merchants should care
fully 20 over the following from the
pen of F. T. Graham and let them put,
for the moment, themselves in the
position Of the merchants spoken of.
The reason why many small dealers
don't advertise is because they are sat
isfed to do a certain volume Of bust
ness, and If they hold their W they
say, whats the use of spending
money for advertising?"
Another merchant argues that people
know him and his goods and that it
would be throwing away good money
to advertise goods that people know he
carries. Another says he cannot af-
ford to spend money for advertising, as
the larger stores blanket his adver-
tisement, so that he feels it does not
benefit his business to advertise.
Still another says, II have an adver-
tisement in all my town papers, but
don't think it helps my business-sim-
ply keeps my name before the public
ana nelpS the newspapers.
There's another who admits trying
different kinds Of advertising, but says
he has never been able to discover any
increase of business due to any adver-
Using matter used. Another claims the
nature Of his business does not require
any advertising. If people want his
kind Of goods they will look around,
and he will take his chances IN get
, ting a call from them and his share
Of their trade.
Here's n who says the town is no
good, people hang on to their money,
ETC., and admits his business is not
what 1t ought to be. It's all the fault
Of the town. Here we have n who
claims he carries a good class of mer-
chandise, but he advertises Christmas
goods and leaves the advertisement un-
changed until about Easter and then
says 1t doesn't pay him to advertise
There are hundreds of other reasons
given by small stores, arguing that ad-
vertising does not pay. IE. my opinion
all these arguments are weak and un-
worthy Of support.
We argue that a merchant who does
not advertise, even though his business
runs the same from year to year, Is go.
ing backward when his business does
not increase annually. Here Is where
the right kind of advertising would
cause an increase in his business. As
for the merchant who argues people
know him and his goods and considers
advertising throwing money away, LEI
Us suggest that IL he would advertise
the new goods received, invite people
to call and examine his store and keep

AS for the merchant who doesn't ad.
vertise because larger stores use lar
ger advertisements, etc.. let me say
that many times we'll written and con-
vincing small advertisements are much
better trade drawers than larger ad-
vertisepents, poorly written and not
interesting to the public in their gen.
eral makeup. The merchant who takes
a space in all his town papers and neg
lects to use that space to good advan-
tage by frequent changes is paying
for a dead horse and might better have
no advertising space and put that mon
ey In his stocking, where 1t won't draw
interest.
To the merchant who admits any
kind of advertising he does has never
increased his business we would sug-
gest that he must be using the wrong
kind Of bait. He should try new tao
tics and get out Of that old rut and be
up and doing with something different
from his competitors.
The merchant who thinks his bust
ness does not require advertising for
various reasons Is behind the times.
John Jones opened a store smaller than
yours, with the same kind of merchan-
disc, and you said he couldn't make a
go Of II, but he advertised that he was
in town and wanted business, and he
got 1t. Today his store Is larger than
yours-in fact, the largest in town.
Why?
The biggest failure Of them all is the
merchant who carries good goods. but
! runs a Christmas advertisement for
! four weeks after that date, when other
merchants are talking spring goods.
and then claims 1t doesn't pay to adver.
tise.
It is a well known fact that many Of
the largest stores Of today were built
to their present size by the liberal use
Of the right kind Of advertising, backed
up with reliable merchandise at right
prices in attractive stores and compe.
tent sales people. The smaller stores
Of today have the same opportunity ia
grow. provided they push their bust.

WOULD BE A REAL PREMIER.
Count Witte Objects to Being Mere
FiGurehead.

st. Petersburg, Oct. 25.-The an
nouncement made in these dispatches
that Count White would shortly as
sumo active direction Of the govern
ment as premier and head of a re-
sponsible cabinet. now seems to be
fully confirmed. 1t can be stated posi-
lively that the emperor has rendered
the position of premier of the cabinet
about to be formed to the count, who,
however, guarded his acceptance with
certain conditions, which were placed
before his majesty in the form of
written memorandum. Count White is
said to have informed the emperor in
his usual fearless manner that he
could accept the position only on the
condition that he would be a real pre-
mier with a working cabinet and not
the mere figurehead of an irresponsi-
BILE body.
According to persistent report the
emperor actually appointed Count
White as premier after accepting his
stipulations. This report is prema-
ture but it can be said that his majesty
has undoubtedly conferred upon the
count the task of drawing up, accord
ing TO his ideas, the project for a re-
sponsible ministerial cabinet the con
sideration of which was being tedious

MILLIONAIRE CLUBMAN KILLED
Dragged Under a Locomotive and His
Body Badly Manqled.

Philadelphia, Oct. 25.-Losing his
balance as he was about to board a
Westbound train which was approach
ing the Fifty-second street station of
the Pennsylvania railroad, s. Frank
Clyde, vice president of the William p.
Clyde Steamship company and million
aire clubman, was dragged under the
wheels of the locomotive and instantly
killed His body was terribly mangled
and his face was crushed beyond rec
ognition, Identification being made by
means OF tailor's label On the cloth
ing bearing Mr.. Clyde's name. While
his body was being extricated from the
forward truck of the car under which
it had been wedged, Mrs. Clyde, un-
aware of the tragic ending of her hus-
band, passed the scene Cd the accident
on a train coming to this city from
Bryn MaWr, a suburb, where Mr..
Clyde was bound when he met his
death.
Mr.. Clyde had been in West Phila-
delphia on business and was on his
way to his country seat near Bryn
MaWr.
When the train approached the sta
ton he walked to the edge of the plat
form and stood facing the track with
one hand extended in order to grasp
the handrail of the car Apparently
finding himself too close to the engine,
he attempted to step back, but, instead
fell forward. The piston box struck
him and carried him under the wheels
of the locomotive. The drivers passed
over him and his clothing caught in
the forward trucks of the first car

Kansas City, Kan, and the suburbs
of Argentine, Armourdale and Rose
dale to close and during the day most
of the 200 saloons in those places re-

the brewers. The others can secure

HAVRE CITY BAND IS
HIGHLY APPRECIATED

That the business men and citizens
appreciate their city band has been
very nicely demonstrated during the
past week. For some weeks the boys
have not been holding their regular
practice meetings, nor has the band
been seen or heard on the streets.
Leader Gordon has been frequently
asked what was the matter, but was
loath to acknowledge that the band
was in financial difficulties. However
he did acknowledge it finally and was
advised by the business men to start
a subscription paper. This he did the
first Of last week, and the following
speaks more eloquently than words
could of the feeling held for the band
by the people of Hayre
