Don't advertise your spring goods
after the people have bought all the
spring goods they want.
Don't tell the newspaper man to
'just FIX up something" do the TX
ing yourself. The newspaper man
may not be 4 mind reader and is not
capable of writing advertisements for
every line of business.
Don't tell the people about "bar-
gains" unless you can convince them
that you have some.
Don't misrepresent anything in
your ads. People are not as easy
az they used to be, and it will leave
An opening for your competitor.
Don't keep your ad standing
throuhout the whole season. People
get tired of looking at it.
Don't rush in with your ad just
before the paper goes to press. Com
positors must have time to set good
ads.
Don't advertise spasmodically.
Keeping everlastingly at it brings
success
Don't wait until the rush season
comes to place an ad. The dull
season is the best time to advertise.
Don't brag in your ads unless
you have the goods to show for it
People insist on having facts in ads
now adays.
Don't pinch on advertising space.
Buy enough space so that your ad
won't look crowded, and don't buy |
50 much that your ad will be all
white space. Get your moneys

There is no doubt but that the
people can build railroad and also
a boat line if they feel SO disposed
but the question is will they do SC
or will they wait for someone tc
build in and help them out of their
difficulty. 1t seems like they have
waited almost long enough. Cotton
wood Chronicle.
The question of better transpor-
tation facilities for the Clearwater
country has stirred up the people
and in their united action is to be
found a solution to the whole prob
lem. The vital issue with the peo-
pie is the development of the re-
sources of the country and this is
hindered and delayed by lack of
proper transportation facilities. The
demands of the territory are press
ing and relief often promised is
postponed from time to time till pa
thence is worn threadbare. 1t is not
a question as to whether the Clear
water country in its development
would justify the expense of more
mileage, that is conceded by all
The present traffic justihes that and
the development under improved
conditions would open up resources
now dormant because of the great
expense for transporting the product
to market. Tbs magnates play at
big game and the traffic of the Clear
water country is small part of the
great issues for which they contend.
1t il doubtless true the railroads
mean to build, but just when is not
moro clearly defined now than it has
been for years though it is nearer
every year. Meanwhile the country
suffers and though it has no quarrel
with the railroads for what they
have done it rises in the strength of
its own resources with a brave at
tempt to do for itself what was sx-
pected of the big corporations. The
plan is not chimerical, and the end
will justify the means. What tho
people want is to burst the bonds
that stay the development of the
rountry and let the richest land un-
der the sun como into the fullness
Of its prosperity.-Teller.

The people of Nezperce prairie
should have no hesitancy in raising
the amount of money assigned to
them for the construction of
the electric railway. Every dollar
subscribed here on the prairie will
return at least two fold before the
road has been in operation one year.
There is not 4 ranch on Nezperce
prairie, within ten miles of the track
north, south, east or west, but what
will be from $500 to $1,000 more
valuable by the building of the road.
And then you will have it for all
time to come, and as a medium for
securing better prices for grain and
live stock it will be a benefit. Look
at it In any way you will you are
a four-time-winner by the building
of this road.

quence and powers of leadership he
made possible the overthrow of the

Governor Gooding and his Mormon

hence in his fight fer seat in the

INDIANS SELDOM INSANE.
A Demented Red Man Was Almost

In nv experience of twenty six years

cases of insanity proper among the

persons of mixed white and Indian
blood who were lunatics. And 1t
seems, from my observation, that the
more modernized the Indian becomes.
the more liable he become to lunacy
or imbecility. The reservation now
has three members in the Indian in

woman cited above another a mixed

ways been weak mentally, and who
was unfortunate in marrying a shrew

man, not excepting an Indian, to in
sanity, and the other subject young
mixed blood Indian boy about 10
wears old, who is not a lunatic in the
proper sense of the word, but, more
properly speaking, an incOrrlglble
being.
| have talked over the subject with
several men, some of them old trad
ers, and others who have lived among
different tribes of Indians, and the
universal verdict seems to be that in
the earlier history of the country in
sanity was not only rare, but was al
most unheard of among the Indians,
but of recent years it seems to have
developed itself in high degree

THE CRADLE OF TEARS.
Where Dethroned Virtue Finds a
Hiding Place.
Dm Tom Watson's Magazine,

| From Tom Watson's Magazine.
! There is a cradle within the door of
one of the great institutions of New
! York before which a constantly re-
curing tragedy is being enacted. 1t
| is plain cradle, quite simply draped
| in'white, but with such look Of coy
comfort about it that one would
scarcely suspect it to be cradle Of
sorrow.
And this cradle is the most useful
and. in a way, the most inhabited era
die in the world. Day after day and
year after year it is the recipient of
more small wayfarin% souls than any
other cradle in the history of the race.
In it the real children of sorrow are
placed. and over it more tears are
shed than if it were an open grave.
1t is the place where annually l 200
foundlings are placed-the silent wit
ness of more truly eart-breaking
scenes than any other cradle since the
world began. For nearly thirty-five
years it has stood where it does to-
day, ready -draped, open, while
many thousand mothers have stolen
shame-facedly in and, after looking
hopelessly about, have laid their help
less OFFSPRING WlInln lUS QepIllS'
For thirty-fve years, winter and
summer. in the bitterest cold and the
most sitting heat, it has seen them
come-the poor, the rich, the humble,
the proud, the beautiful, the hOmely-
and one by one they have laid their
children down and brooded over them,
wondering whether it were possible
for human love to make so great a
sacrifice and yet not die.
Still the tragedy repeats itself, and
year after year and day after day the
unlocked door is opened and dethron-
ed virtue enters-the victim of ignO-
rance and passion and affection-and
child is robbed of an honorable
home.

THE WOOING OF FARMS.
Ten Thousand Proposals to Young
Women Who Drew HOmesteads.

Women Who Drew HOmeSUeauS.
The l20 manageable young women
who drew hOmesteads on the Rosebud
Indian reservation in South Dakota
have received proposals from 10000
men.
Most of them have come by mail,
from men who never saw the young
women and know nothing about them
except that among the charms of each
is 160-acre tract Of good land.
1t would look as if these 0,OO0 men
and perhaps many more still remain
ing to be heard from would like to
marry the 100 acres, without much re-
gard for the nature of the female in
cumbrance.
There is nothing remarkable about
it. We have got used to it, seeing
rich American girls marry foreign
titles and titled foreigners marry
American millions. And even in
humber life the practice of marrying
for money is not so uncommon as it
might be.
But the remarkable part Of the
Rosebud incident lies in the fact that
every one of the 100 young women
have refused the offers, have organic
ed and announced that the only way
to get into their favor is to work for
it.
The girls invite their admirers to
come out and show what they can do
in the way of blowing, sowing and
harvesting. Suitors who prove by
one or two seasons work that they
are Industrious and provident and in
every way competent to care for a
farm will stand chance. No others
need apply.
Now here is fine discriminating
Judgment. If man is to marry for a
farm he must be worthy of the farm.

OF all vices to which young men be-

in youth and hard to throw off in
manhood or old age. Unfortunately,

evil in the sense that drinking, gamb-
