John Wanamsker, one OF the most
persistent advertisers the world has
ever seen, and a man who built up a
great fortune through the use of print
ers' ink, gives this bit of advice to ad :
verti ers: If there is one enterprise
on earth that gutter should leave SO D..
verely alone, it is advertising. He
should know before he begins it that
he must spend money-lots of it. Some
body must tell him, also, that he cannot
hope to reap results commensurate with
his expenditure early in the game. Ad.
vertising does jerk it pulls. 1t begins
very gently at first, but the pull is
steady. 1t increases day by day and
year by year until it exerts an irresisti-
BILE power "

SOW GRAIN CROPS.

The Gainesville Herald sensibly says
therS a.e two good business reasons
why the farmers of this section should
raise heavier grain crops-even if re-
duction Of the cotton acreage must be
made. This first reason is that for
home consumption and for the supply
ing OF the home market the farmers OF
this section ought to have the profit
which there is now in grain crops, in
stead Of sending dollar a bushel for
corn to the West and correspondingly
high prices for wheat and oats. Wheat,
for -four or for feed in the spring, will
pay better than cotton at ten or twelve
cents, and oats raised at home means
independence of the abnormSlly high
prices you have to pay for feed. The
other reason: Sowing grain crops will
not only save the strength Of your land
but, when the stubble is turned, ma
terially reinforce the yielding capacity
and crop-values of the land and make
it almost twice as productive for other
crops another season. More and more
the Georgia farmers are coming to re-
alize the immense value, the economy,
the business wisdom of grain crops.
Sow Wheat and Oats, and make
two bundles grow where one grew be-
FORE Then let the price of grain soar
and the price of cotton drop-and you
are independent.

AN ENORMOUS WASTE.

year to haul the farm products of the

customed to be spent in seven? Make

of the young king, "it was the n pas

into a dwelling place for his God"
HE hath surely made my task an

ship than In purposins to con-
summate the great work for
which the father had planned?
In this respect Solomon was
a striking type of the Christ,
who came delighting to do the
will of the Father who had sent
him. The one plan of his life
was the contamination Of the
supreme plan of salvation, pur-
posed In the heart of God from
the beginning.
If Solomon was to build a tenn.
pie of wood and stone for the
dwelling place of God, Christ
was to build a temple, not made
with hands, eternal in the
heavens. His task was the
transforming of the human life
into the temple beautiful for the
indwelling of the blessed Para
cIete, the holy representative OF
both God the Father and God
the Son.
"There was neither hammer
nor ak nor any tool of iron
heard in the house, while it was
building."-Thus ~reverentIy did
the building of Gods house pro-
/ coed. All the material was
brought to the temple site COM
pIeteIy fitted and finished, SO
that all that was necessary was
the placing of stone upon stone,
and beam upon beam, each fit
ting perfectly into its place.
May we not gather from this
the inspiring, helpful thought
that we who are being builded
as living stones into Gods tenn
Pile are being shaped and fash
Toned and prepared to fit per-
fectIy into the completed struc-
ture when all the parts are at
last assembled. Here In this /.
life we Know not What nicne we
are to fill, that remains to be
revealed. But like the stone in
the quarry far below the temple
site was hewn and smoothed
and grooved ready to find its
place at last in the splendid tenn
Pile which was to be reared, SO
we, here in the earthly pilgrim
age, are receiving that disci-
pine which shall knock off the
sharp corners, and smooth the
rough surfaces and groove the
life with the pattern of Gods
will so as to at last make 1t fit
into its place in the completed
temple.
