HE'S FRANK ABOUT 1T
An Interesting and Unique Advertis-
ing Card Used By Saloon Keep
er of Tombstone, Arizona,

Tombstone, Arizona, claims the
credit for the frankest saloon keeper
in the country, according to the Ma
tional Rip Saw, an interesting pub
llcation in Chicago. ALLOW me to
inform you that you are FOOLS" this
fellow says to his patrons on very
unique advertising card he issued a
fewe weeks ago, yet his place is usu-
ally filled. This card while answer
ing its purpose in giving the saloon
widespread advertising as the owner
intended it should do, has attracted
the attention of the temperance work
ers who believe that it is really good
manuscript for a temperance lecture.
Copies are being circulated through
the western states and are attracting
much attention. The card reads as
follows:
Friends and neighbors: am
grateful for past favors and having
supplied my store with a fine line of
choice liquors and wines. allow me to
inform you that l shall continue to
make drunkards, paupers and beggars
for the sober, industrious respectable
part of the community to support. My
liquors will incite riot, robbery and
bloodshed.
They will diminish your comfort
increase your expenses and shorten
your life. l shall confidently recon-
mend them as sure to multiply fatal
accidents and incurable diseases.
''They will deprive some of life,
others of reason, many of characters,
and all of peace. They will make
fathers fiends, wives widows, children
orphans, and all poor. l will train
your sons in infidelity, dissipation,
NJ ~ I,ar.
vice. / will corrupt the ministers of
religion, obstruct the gospel. defile
the church, and cause as much tenn
poral and eternal death as | can. |
thus accommodate the public; it may
be at the loss of my never dying soul
but l have a family to support-the
business pays-and the public en-
courages it.
Il have paid my license and the
traffic is lawful, and If | don't sell il
somebody else will. ] know the Bible
says: Thou shalt not kill No drunk
ard shall enter the kingdom of hea-
ven.' and l do not expect the drunk
ardmaker to fare any better, but
want an easy living and have resolv-
ed to gather the wages of iniquity
and fatten on the running of my spec
les.
Shall 'hSlelolSs NailS Oh my
business with energy and do my best
to diminish the wealth of the nation
and endanger the safety of the state.
AS my business fiourishes in proper
tion to your sensuality and Ignorance,
l will do my best to prevent moral
purity and intelligent growth
Should you doubt my ability re-
fer you to the pawnshops, the poor
house, the public court, the hospital
the penitentiary and the gallows,
where you will find may a sight of
them will convince you that do what
l say. Allow me to inform you that

fortune in the advertisement of
Frank Siddall's Soap" He was the
first really great advertiser of a COM
modify in this country. He was look
ed upon as being almost crazy when
he first began to take whole pages
in advertising his soap. His fortune
was made and made easily. through
newspaper advertising. When. his
business got so great that he thought
he did not need to advertise any more.
he quit. The result-the people soon
forgot Frank Siddall and his soap
His fortune, so il is said, dwindled to
nothing several years ago. Recently
he began advertising again, but 1t
was too late. He could not regain
his lost prestige. No man in business
can afford to spasmodically advertise.
The public soon forget a gutter.
Some other fellow forges to the
front and claims public attention
The Royal Baking Powder company,
John Wanamaker. and thousands of
others that spend a million dollars
year would not consider a propo-
sitlon to save that million in adver-
tising for one single instant-they
know it would mean commercial
death Look at the advertisers in

FOR THE CHILDREN
The El<s Are Arranging for Merry
Christmas entertainment at
Their Hall on Christmas
Day for Children.

The children of the Elks can count
on one of the jolliest times of their
lives on the afternoon of Christmas
day.
The members of the popular order
have concluded that every entertain
ment given by the order in the past
has been for the pleasure of the
adults and SO they have decided to
give the children a great big enter
tainment on Christmas day, in the
afternoon, at the club rooms. There

the Salvation army can more judic-

MIND

Often our health and our lives are
sacrificed to improper use of vision.
The organs and functions of the body
are closer in relation to one another
than would at first thought appear.
Every component part of the living
organism is interdependent. one on
the other. throughout the wholerange
of the body. the influence of one re-
verbrating to the other.
1t has been learned by experience
that, when tired. closing the eyes for
a moment will rest the entire body.
The reason of this is that closing the
eyes shuts down work" on one third
of the brain-resting 1t.
The greatest thing in the world is
man. The greatest part of man is
mind, and one-third of the mind is
eye-sight. and my specially is EYE
SIGHT. If your eyesight is in any
way affected-be sure you have it
attended by a specialist and save
trouble and money and dear sight.

The apple has grown to be a medi-
cal quantity in the last few years.
OF course people have been eating
apples for the past century or more,
but they never enjoyed such luscious
fruit as is now grown. Apples were
then eaten perfunctorily. now they
are eaten for their medical virtue.
The old saying that apples are golden
in the morning, silver at noon and
lead at night, is not far wide of the
truth. OF course apples may be
eaten at night with a great deal of
good. What is food for one is poi
son to another and each individual
must study his own nature. so far as
fruit eating goes. Other fruits pre-
duce many opposite conditions in var
ious persons. But the apple taken
altogether is fruit which is eaten
more generally today, than any fruit
grown. By the side of n luscious
orange several years ago, the apple
had no show whatever. The mea-
sure of selling is now largely in favor
of the apple and the single fruit will
sell side by side for the same price
but many times iii favor of the ap-
pie. Long may the apple survive as
a fruit.
