resentaiive Sibley Representative-elect
Wheeler, who will take Sibley's seat

AS will be seen by notice published
in this issue all jurors summoned for
February court are notified that their
presence will not be required at that time,
all civil causes haying been postponed,
and there being no criminal business of
sufficient import in sight to warrant the
holding of quarter sessions court. This
is the second consecutive instance in
which the jurors have been thus excused
from attendance, the panel drawn for
November sessions having been notified
not to appear. Our county is surely get
ting into the goody-goody class.

brothers NJ. w. and Charles, and his
cousin NJ. G. Dickey, have purchased
couple OF large tracts of timber in Sulli-

engage extensively in the lumber busi-
ness. They already have two mills in
operation aud expect to have couple
more by spring, and their prospects of
making nice thing out of their purchas-
es is excellent. The name of the firm is
the Dickey Lumber Company. We wish
them success.
The purpose of store advertising is
not merely to sell goods, but to sell more
goods-to make friends, build up a pat
ronsge that will not only stick, but grow.
Newspapers reach the greatest number of
people in the immediate vicinity in the
most natural way, at the least expense,
and they are therefore the best of all me-
diums for stores. In newspaper you
follow the lines of least resistance-you
follow with the stream, you talk to an au-
dience already assembled, to the people
who want to read-their mental costume
is right-they are on your wire, and they
won't ring Off if you hold their interest.
Attraction is the basis of all advertising
the store is the sun, the customers the
planets that revolve around it.
