A friend Of ours was advised to take
a drink with every meal, and he now
insists on eating six meals day.

Gently went into one of our drug stores
and ordered q 90 bottle of perfume, n
81 bottle OF hair tonic and 81 worth of
rouge and face powder. Then she
spent cents for a cake Of soap.
These two things travel hand In hand
with modern civilization: A man muet
keep hitching up his pants to prevent
their sbagging at the knees when he
sits down, and q woman must feel of
her belt at the back when>she stands
up to make sure that her skirt is not
dragging.
There are quite number of widows
in this city, and much smaller num-
Der of widowers. A widower is al
ways the subject for jokes in friend

"take notice" the second time; but q
widow never attracts an unusual
amount of attention when she falls in
love again.

THE ADVERTISING
Of LOCAL FIRM
DISCUSSED
7 heir Digni6ed Attitude CON-
mended by the Music Trade
Review of New York.

{ From San Francisco Chronicle. }
While every music house in san
francisco has lately adopted a cam
paien of aggression where it became
customary TO attract the attention of
the public by means of advertisements
which fOICed themselves into atten-
tion by reason of the extraordinary
Inducements offered, the firm of Sher-
man. Clay & Co. remained conserva-
tive and permitted all these inoderl
methods to pass by without as much
as a side glance. While some of the
houses advertised high-grade pianos
at "sensatlonally low figures; while
others tempted the public by wonder
full inducements of installment sales
allowing as much as 800 on the first
payment, while again others inau-
gurated piano clubs and word con-
tests, all of which endeavored to I'M
press the reader that he was receiving
something for nothing, the firm of
Sherman, Clay & Co. remained faith
full to its well known principle of con-
srrvatism.
1t is. indeed, interesting to watch
known, Sherman, Clay & Co. has. as
its leader the Steinway piano. This
instrument Is simply placed by the
firm upon a pedestal and pointed out
as something superior-as something
| better than anything else in the estab-
| lishment. There is no reduction on a
! Steinway. There are no cut prices
on that instrument. If any induce
ments are given In the way of INSTALL
ments they are not such as to inter-
fere with the established price of the
instrument, but the patron Is made to
understand that in being enabled to
obtain Steinway by the installmenI
method he thereby obtains such great
advantages as to put all discounts and
| cash allowances on other pianos I'm
the shade. In this manner Sherman,
Clay & &C. simply put fence around
the Steinway and the public is not
loath to ADOPT the firms respect and
admiration for this favored instru-
ment.
This goes to show how piano
| houae may assist in giving an instru-
ment an unassailable position in
the trade, and do not doubt that the
methods IN which the Steinway is
handled has largely contributed to
the standing 1t possesses among artists
and musicians. When Sherman, Clay
q Co. had concluded their important
combination with Lyon & Healey, of
Chicago, they never used this move
as food for sensational advertising. A
report setting forth the action taken
between the two houses was sent to
the eastern trade press, and the local
| papers were merely asked to repro
duce these reports verbatim without
single syllable being added by Sher-
man, Clay & Co. The reproduction
of these reports was followed by an
exhibition of Lyon & Healey brass
Instruments In the show windows of
| the firm, and the matter was dropped
/ Immediately after all the dealers on
the coast had been notified of the i'm
portant move. It was all done In
such dlgnlfied way and without the
least bit OF sensational ostentatioi.
that 1t raised the estimation in which
the firm was always held.

FLOWING CONTESTS.
CHEYENNE WITNESSING
\ UNIQUE SCENE.
Rival Plow Companies VIII Test the
Merits of Their Machines ON Dry
Land of Wyoming This Week.
Great Activity in Dry Farming
Has Stimulated Interest in Farming
Methods.

Today big 32horse power engine
and a set of gang plows and harrows
are being unloaded. in this city as one
of the principals in one of the most
unique contests that has ever been
seen in a so-called arid region, says
the Cheyenne Tribune.
Another engine is on its way to
Cheyenne and early next week will be-
gin a series of plowing contests to de-
termine to the satisfaction of Wyom-
ing dry farmers the superiority of the
rival plow operators.
The engine that arrived today is
from Reeves & Co. of Denver and is
in charge of Expert Olinger of that
city The engine is expected to pull a
disc plow 16 feet wide through sod
to a depth of eight inches and harrow
the plowed ground at the same time
with four sections of steel harrows.
Mr.. Olinger, backed by the Reeves
people, says that their disc plow is the
only plow that will do this work with
the same motive power and it is also
claimed that the disc plow leaves the
| unplowed ground below in better con-
dition for the absorption of water
under the dry farming system.
The other contestant is p. y. Jones
| of Pierce, Col. who is bringing up a
| 25-horse power j. l. Case engine and
who will use the we'll known mould
! board gang plow. Mr.. Jones says that
| his outfit will do as good or better
! work than all the disc plows in Gre
! alton and says that he is prepared to
prove his assertion. Mr.. Jones has
! been operating a gang plow under
| power for a number of years in north
! ern Colorado and is confident that he
has the best equipment obtainable.
TIE rival plowmen were brought to-
! gether through the efforts of DR.. V.
| T. Cooke. who has been in charge of
| the dry farming operations near Chey-
enne and who has also done a remark
! able work in arousing interest among
the ranchmen of the county in the
! dry farming movement
The plowng contest will take place
on the Model Farm" east of town
and will be watched with great inter-
est by not only Cheyenne people but
the owners of extensive range land in
] the county NllD are lldllIlllE " pun
large acreages into cultivation under
the dry farming system as well as
ranchmen who will increase their
acreage for cultivation under irriga-
tion.
The demonstrations made through
out Laramie county during the past
two seasons have convinced many
ranchmen that they can raise crops
more valuable than the prairie
grasses on their ranges by dry farm
ing and the problem of plowing has
become a serious one as from all Ovel
the county and in western Nebraska
have come queries from ranchmer
asking how they can get lands ploweC
at reasonable prices.
The success Of DR.. Cooke in secur
ing a practical demonstration of tht
work of two outfits which are able t,
undertake contracts for the plOwinl
of extensive tracts in a large measur,
solves the problem and opens to own
ers of unimproved land a way to pu
, their holdings into what is certain t,
be profitable cultivation.

EilerS Piano House is the Place
That Saves Piano
Buyers Money

EXtravagant assertions to the contrary notwith-
standing there is but place in Pendleon that is in
position to sell and sengthe very choicest hghcass
pianos for less money that can be obtained elsewhere
Dealers who have to get their instruments on
consignment from San Francisco houses or have to pay
aroyay to jobbers on every instrument they SELL can
not possibly hope to furnish the values in pianos that
can be obtained at Eilers Piano House.
Over 100 residents of Pendleon and vicinity have
purchased pianos of in the last few months, What
does this mean? 1t means that the people, nearly all of
whom are business men and women, have each saved
at least $50 to 500 by purchasing from us. Yes, it
means more than that 1t means that are doing eX
acty what stated in our advertisements---sellng
Instruments of known value and standing at prices
heretofore unheard of, and at figures with which the
ordinary little dealer agent cannot possibly hope to
compete. We have announced and explained many
times heretofore why we are able to do this.
Never before have we displayed such large as
sortment nup-to-date styles in high-grade pianos as
we now have on our floors
We take old instruments in exchange and allow
liberal valuation just now, while there is big demand
with us for them
