A HINT TO ocALA MERCHANTS

John Wanamaker of Philadelphia
and New York is one of the richest
men in America. He made his money
in legitimate business. He started
poor and depended solely upon his
own resources. He succeeded by US
ing admirable tact and good Judgment
To open d store and do nothing else
he knew would not sell goods except
by a miracle. He knew he must offer
some splendid attractions and excite
the interest of the public. He and his
brOtheT-in-law were partners, and they
began with a four thousand dollar
stock. From the jump they began 4
series Of attractive advertising. All Of
the first days profits were spent in q
single bushes announcement next day
in the Philadelphia Ledger. The adj
vertisements increased and their bust
hess increased. Their business grew
TO such enormous proportions that
they have spent almost as much as
q million of dollars in advertising in
q single year. The partner died many
/ years ago, but the princely system of
advertising, began in the early history
of the firm, was kept up, and every
year it was as bread cast upon the
waters. 1t returned more than an
| hundred fold. Is not that a suggestive
Lesson? Is it an exceptional one? Does
not the same system bring forth the
same fruit? What has built up Rog,
! ers, Peet & Co. of New York? What
made A. T. Stewart a millionaire
Who has not heard of Keeps shirt,
He went to New York from Louisiana
a poor man, and by persistent adver
Using grew rich making, shirts in q
! few years. Baldwin, the Clothier,
scooped in a fortune in a little while
and even the maker Of pills and pei
lets, by the aid of printers ink, have
made colossal fortunes. Suppose
that John Wanamaker had never in.
serted an advertisement in a news
paper. today he would be doing a pic
ayune business and his name would
hardly be known outside the limits
of a very small circle. He would not
be electing presidents and buying pic
lures costing more than a hundred
thousand dollars.
The same system will bring the
same fruits in Ocala, in a proportion
ate way. The man who keeps his
business before the people in an at
tractive way is going to succeed. What
a business man wants to do is to ler
people know what he has got, ani
that he has got something that they
want. Make his advertisements at
tractive and his store attractive, ant
keep it up from day to day, and he
will be a Wanamaker in his commu
nifty just as sure as the tides ebb ana
flow.

SQUEEZED A MANS HEART TO
MAKE IT BEAT AGAIN

Dr.. ID. F. Sullivan of Hartford
Conn, and others were operating up
on Nuncia Chial for the removal Of
portions of the lungs diseased by
pneumonia. Through an incision
near the left lung the mans heart
could be distinctly seen beating nor,

Suddenly DR.. Sullivan observed
that the hearts action had become ir-
regular. Then it stopped. Thrusting
IN his fingers the doctor squeezed the
heart softly and rythmicslly, and
started life once more coursing
through Chiars arteries.

THE MERRY WIDOW LAUNCHED

No; not hat, but a boat! For such
is the fascinating name that Mr.. Frank
Mathews and Mr.. Watterson Tucker
have given to the beautiful and at
tractive launch that they have just
completed building at their shops.
The boat was taken out to Silver
Springs Saturday, and in the after
noon was launched on the waters OF
this exquisitely lovely spring. In hon.
or of the event these gentlemen ask
ed a number of their friends to &C.
company them to the springs, and Mr..
Mathews sister, Miss Annie Math-
ews, and a number of other young
ladies accompanied them to enjoy the
initial trip on this beautiful launch.
The heavy rain in the afternoon
somewhat marred the pleasures OF
the trip, but the young people had n
big time anyway.
The Merry Widow is a very hand.
some boat, one Of the prettiest crafts
now on the run. and Messrs. Mathews
and Tucker are very clever to have
built so neat and complete a launch.
They, with Mr.. Ed Carmichael and
Mr.. Richard Hall, own a boat house
1t the springs, where they all three
WIN keep their launches.

The reduction was expected and the announce
ment had no effect on the stock, which moved

FISH'S PLAN ACCEPTED.
I. G. Stock Increase To Be V0ted On
Armour IN His Place.

The directors of the Illinois Central Railroad
Company. at meeting held in this city yesterday,
voted 70 call special meeting of the stockholders
for May Is, to upon increase of 30 per cent
in the capital stock of the company. One-half OF
this amount it is purposed to offer to the stock
holders at par The remainder is to be placed IN
the treasury. and the board will consider the ad-
visibility of issuing convertible bonds against II.
provided, of course that the stockholders approve
the enlargement in the capital.
While the meeting marked the elimination of
Stuyvesant Fish from all official connection with the
company, ]. Ogden Armour being elected to sue
ceed him the board yet his wishes regarding the
form of financing to be done by the company appear
to have been carried out Hitherto, had been un-
derstood. the directors led by e. H. Hartman had
advocated Issue of equipment trusts. and at the
last meeting this method of financing had been de-
cided upon 1t said. Mr.. Fish opposed to
any issue of securities that not authorized by
the stockholders, and objected vigorously to any
short term issue. Mr. Hartman said to be
Just strongly in favor cf this form of financing.
that the Fish programme had been decided upon.
None of the officials of the company the direc-
tors would comment the affair.
An increase of 80 per cent would mean s2s.512000
of Illinois Central stock, and would bring the
total authorized issue up to s1235520Oo At the
present price 126 the stock the proposed
issue at part to stockholders carries attractive
rights.
J. Ogden Armour is said to be a friend of
Mr. Hartman, and his election to the board yes
terday to succeed Mr. Fish regarded in rail-
road and financial circles making the formers
position in the Illinois Central stronger than
AS is well known. Mr.. Fish recently lost his suit
before Justice Ball. In Chicago, prevent the
ing of approximately 900 shares Of Illinois Central
stock which owned by the Union Pacific and
the Railroad Securities Company, and his emina-
ton from the board was regarded as foregone
