You've Heard of John.

Don't advertise when you be-
lieve you are wasting money.
Let your competitor waste his
money on advertising, and per-
haps in this way you'll soon
"put him out of business" Fix
his clock works for him! Just
stand back and laugh at him
when you see him squandering
his money for printers ink.
Once there was a boy named
John-we think his last name
was Wanamaker, or maybe it
was Moneymaker, anyhow, his
name was John with some sort
of a maker attached to his last
name. He owned fifty yards
of calico, three pair jeans, a
half dozen pairs of home made
socks and five pairs of boots.
He called this a dry goods store
through a Philadelphia news
paper and offered to sell a pair
of socks for 80 cents. The
don't believe in advertising
merchants laughed! Young
John spent $65 with the Phila-
delphia Ledger to advertise
just one time, and had less
than $500 worth of goods. He
was cautioned by the merchants
who "knew it didn't pay!;' It
was through sympathy that
they offered him advice. But
John didn't listen to them, and
went on and blew his money in
foolishly:: and today poor John
sees the results of his misdoings
he has so many large dry
goods stores that he can hardly
find time to study his Sunday
school lesson Mapleton Press.

Infamous.

The outraged majesty of the
law has finally landed Cassie
Chadwick behind the bars of
the penitentiary to serve a ten
year sentence for violation Of
the national banking act. Only
a few days ago Secretary Shaw
said that every Chicago banker
has been a persistent violator
of other provisions of the same
law, but none of them have or
will be punished. Henry Rog-
ers, a persistent violator of the
federal laws, refuses to answer
questions put to him in court
and mocks the representatives
Of the law who seek to compel
him to do so. Others, like De-
pew and Platt, are sicklied all
over with crimes against the
law and the mailed hand be-
comes a velvet mitten in deal
ing with them. Cassie may
and no doubt does deserve her
punishment, butt is an infamy
to incarcerate her because she
is a woman, poor purse, broken
in spirit and friendless, and let
men like those we have named
go free Of punishment because
they are rich and powerful
financially and politically.
There is not much credit due
the government for chastising
the criminal cripples and letting
the criminal athletes go I'M
whipped of the justice they de-
serye.-Atlantic Democrat.

A leading Iowa school has
this to say Of the farmers boy:
"The farmers boy has an in
heritance of peculiar and in
estimable value. His lungs
have breathed the pure, fresh
air, his food has been plain and
substantial, his muscles have
been hardened by wholesome
toll, his labor and his exposure
to the elements have given him
physical endurance, his simple
and sincere life has incuIcated
good habits i'm short, he has
come by nature to possess a
strong physical constitution,
and his experiences have made
MIN resourceful. All this is
capital of greatest value. AS
to intellectual Inheritance he
takes his chance with the rest
of the world. His disadvan-
tage, as a rule, is an education
al opportunity. This his SUI
perior courage may oftimes
overcome, and when he has
made his way to school he has
not infrequently eutstripped
his competitors in the race. A
young man owes it to himself,
whether he wishes to remain
on the farm or to enter a
learned profession, to secure
the best discipline for his men,
tai powers, for by them we sue
coed or fail. for that enables us
and takes the slavery out of
toll. 1t is remarkable how
many of our greatest men have
been farmers boys. Sixty per
cent is regarded by son e asa
low estimate. Of the presi-
dents sixteen out of the TWEEN
ty-five have been farmers boys
and one other was himself a
farmer. The farmers boy has
the elements of greatness in
him and not a few advantages
on his side" Don't encourage
the boy in his idea that he has
had enough schooling before he
has finished a common high
school course. Keep him going,
even at the expense of some
rather stringent urging. The
successful man of the future
must be an educated man.
Things have changed since you
were a boy and are changing
more rapidly now than ever be-
fore. The chances for the plug
man are disappearing, so give
your boy enough education to
raise him out of this class.
Missouri Valley times. [volume] (Missouri Valley, Iowa) 1874-1931, 1906-03-15

Did you ever see a lot of nine
spot men who had it in for a
business man and didn't know
why? Ever hear the gang
curse and berate a home man
who had made a success of
what he undertook while they
have been chewing and splitting
and lushing at the same old
job they monkeyed with fifteen
years ago? Ever see a man
who gloried in another's success
and take a straggler by the
hand and say: "I'm glad to see
you succeedw Ever see any
of these things? Of course
you have. You see them every
day. Then there are dozens of
reptlllans who will great you
with a smile and stab you in
the back because you attend to
your business and succeed.
Whether they can do as we'll or
not, there are always plenty of
venomous knockers who are so
filled with envy and jealousy
that they can't be decent when
some one else wins. They fight
you and lie about you for no
other reason than to tear you
down. In short no one has de-
scribed them any better than
Shakespeare has when he said:
s'You have enemies who know
not why they are, but like the
village cur, bark because their
fellows d." Exchange.

The Inebriate Law.

The Inebriate Law.
Logan Observer-The inc.
briate law should be rigidly en-
forced. There are two reasons
for a vigorous enforcement of
this law: one, that those sent
to Knoxville may be cured: the
other that those who have
started on the road that goes
downward may be stopped and
started up the grade towards
manhood and good citizenship.
When it becomes a recognized
fact that three years at the in
ebriate asylum at Knoxville
means three years of confne-
ment, work and treatment for
a cure, then the inebriate, or
he who has taken the first steps
in inebriety, will be apt to stop
and think about the end--a
three-year course at Knoxville.
as an ihebriate, a prospect that
does not appeal to any right
thinking boy or man.
There is a large lobby at
Washington representing as
they sey the cattle interests.
Most assuredly they do not
represent the interests of the
cattle for the object is to have
the time extended that cattle
may be kept on cars without
food or water from twenty
eight hours as under the pres
emit law to thirty-six hours as
under the law which they want
passed. The Humane societies
and the societies for the pre-
vention of cruelty to animals
which are now widely estab-
lished throughout the country
as we'll as humane people every
where are opposed to this legis-
lation and are writing their
senators and members of con-
gress asking them to vote
against the cattle shippers bill.
The lobby however is we'll or
ganized and has at it's command
almost unlimited money to be
used in pushing its bill.
"Carat" as Applied to Dia=
mOndS.
Although the term s'carat" is
applied to diamonds as we'll as
to gold, it does not mean the
same thing. Used with regard
to the metal it expresses quail
ity or fineness, "a carat being
pure gold and % carat equal to
coined gold. But applied to
the diamond carat means ac-
tual weight, and by this meas
urs 1852 carats are equal to an
ounce troy. The value of a
diamond is not merely so much
per carat, irrespective of size,
but increases in an increasing
ratio with the weight of the
stone.
The Milan Peace society, in
accord with the sclloolteachers
of Italy, has done a surprising
thing. 1t has petitioned the
government to have the birth
day of George Washington pro-
claimed a public holiday to be
devoted to manifestations in
favor of peace. 1t is certainly
remarkable that Italians should
ask their government thus to
honor the birthday of the faith
err of the American republic in
this way. And it is remarkable
that they should recognize the
commander in chief of the
American armies in our revolu-
tionary war as in reality a man
of peace rather than of war.
Theirs is asurprising tribute to
our great national hero as pre-
eminently first in peace and
only from necessity first in war.

Allister.

AilOttiGt l-CllCl llOlil lVIs VldC~

Corpus Christi, Texas, March
9th, 1906. Dear Mo. Valley
Friends: You have probably
heard of the very kind telegram
sent me by the session of our
church, "stay till end of your
transportation, by order of the
session" We had our grips
packed and intended leaving
for home in the morning when
this came to hand. | knew the
church meant it or the telegram
would not have been sent, soin-
stead of going home Tuesday
9Th inst as intended we took
| the train south $50 miles to
Brownsville, at the Rio Grande
River on the other side of
which we saw the shore of Mex
| leo.
Brownsville has a population
of about 5000. 1t is an old
town but until two years ago it
had no railroad. 1t built itself
up Independent of that mighty
agent and was in possession of
many of the advantages of civ
ilization before the whistle of
the locomotive was heard. This
is worth while noting by Mo.
Valley. We think we couldn't
draw breath without the rail-
road. There was quite a crowd
at the depot as our train got
in, it was evidently a favorite
lettering place. There was no
omnibus but a score of hacks,
which for "two bits Mexican"
az cents) were willing to take
one person wherever he wanted
| to 90. The hacks did not look
prosperous and the horses look
ed as if they were none to fam
iliar with oats, but the drivers
were eager and willing and we
got to our hotel which bore the
familiar name "The Miller"
where plenty of good food was
supplied and a good clean bed
was to be had. We strolled
out after supper but as the
authorities were evidently de-
sirous of getting all they
could out OF the light of the
moon and careful of kerosene
and electric light we could not
see great deal but next day
we saw a city of many fine
homes and good stores, showing
prosperous conditions Of bust
ness.
Mexico old Mexico now
loomed up in our thoughts.
How aboutgoing there? There
was but the Rio Grande be-
tween us and it and although
there was no bridge we could
go across in the ferry boats
which piled all day between
the two shores for zone bit
Mexican" (6 cents). We were
made anxious by what we were
told as to other difficulties in
the way. We must not take
more than $3.50 in United
States value for each person
which would give $500 Mexi-
can money, and there might be
lsome trouble if one is a foreign
born U. S. citizen like myself
unless you have your naturali-
cation papers with you. Then
if tempted to buy in Mexico,
the American custom house of
licials would take the things
from you or perhaps you would
be fined. So we were very
careful, but nobody molested
us or appeared to question us
on either side of the river. |
have not time to tell what we
saw in the city of Matamoras
in Mexico and how we came to
understood it all much better
through the kindness of the
