A GOOD ADVERTISER.
MinOt Druggist Tells How He Built
Up His Business.

At meeting of the McHenry
County Newspaper Mems asso-
citation, Paul V. Mccoy, a Mi
not druggist, recognized as be-
ing the states best advertiser,
was one of the invited guests
and responded to the toast,
What Think of Advertising,'
in the following we'll timed re-
marks:
II believe that my success in
business is largely due to ad-
vertising. During the five
years that have been in Minot
my business has grown steadi-
ly, last year reaching near the
100000 mark. believe that
| have carried avertising space
in the newspapers of practically
every man present, and
| lay my success largely to ad-
vertising and the fact that /
have increased the amount of
advertising each year, is evi-
dence of my belief of what ad-
vertising will do. In the local
papers | carry from one to two
pages each week in the week
lies, and two or three hundred
inches per week in the dailies.
This should be evidence of the
fact that | am firm believer
in advertising and | shall con-
tinue to use all the space / can
afford while | remain in busi-
ness

WHERE MONEY G,ES
High and Low Taxation of Different
Townships Explained and
Reasons for Same.

The payment of taxes GER
tainly has all seasons for it's
own, but this is the season
specially set aside by the laws
of our state for the perform
ance of this doleful duty. The
everlasting payment of sums
large and small in the fearful
form of tiresome taxes is a
painfully palpable and obnox-
iously conspicuous perform
ance, but the returns from
these payments are so varied
and incOnspicuous in form that
we pass them by unnoticed;
and people naturally ask What
becomes of all the money any,
how?' Our taxpayers have a
perfect right to know what
becomes of their money, and
it is the purpose of this article
to attempt an answer to the
question asked.
The total amount of all taxes
levied in Bottineau county
for the present fiscal year is
$282, 174.86. These taxes are
divided into the following 6
classes:
State taxes, $38, 632. 21
County taxes 3,8OO.8O
School taxes ia, 787. %
City, Village and
T.. Twp. taxes 45, ,541.26
Special taxes q. 9,413. 36

$282. 174.86
Total

Total $282, ia. 81
For what purposes are these
various taxes levied? Let us
consider each class by itself.
The state taxes are levied for
the following funds:
State general fund $28, 784. 76
State bond sinking
fund 757. 81
mill taxi 1874. 90
State wolf bounty
fund 1914. SO
Total $38, 632. 21
The State general fund is
used for such purposes as the
payment of salaries of state
officers and appointees, salary
of district and supreme court
judges, maintenance of the
state penitentiary, the hospital
for the insane, the soldiers
home, the institution for the
feeble minded, and farm ex-
pertinent stations; the erection
of buildings at the State
University, at the Agricultural
College, at the State Normal
Schools and other state in
stitutions; and for numerous
other purposes incident to the
maintenance of government in
a civilized state. Who will
deny that these expenditures
promote the general welfare
of the people in the state?
The uses of the state bond
sinking fund, the state school
fund and the wolf bounty fund
are self-evident and need no
explanation.
We now come to the item of
county taxes, consisting OF
$73, ,8OO.8O. These taxes are
levied for the following funds:
General Fund $45, 449. SO
Interest and sink
ing fund 6,817, 43
Bridge fund 10, 149. 86
County special road
fund 4,254. 81
County delinquent
road fund 2.129.9 81
Total $73, 800. 80
Please note that out of a
total tax of more than two
hundred eighty-two thousand
dollars only about forty-fve
thousand, or less than Is per
cent, is levied and used for
general county expenditures.
These expenditures cover a
great number and variety OF
stems such as the support OF
the county poor, public super
vision of health, cost of justice

TYPHOID fever
Is Durable
DR.. Eldridge Declares
High Death Rate is
Needless.--He Has Had
Great Success in Six
teen Years Practice.

dboNe HaIiieu ulSeaSe IOf the past
sixteen years, 1 positively know
that there is no need of the fear
full death rate, which is charged
up to the ravages of typhoid
fever, under the present routine
treatment.
When the patient has not already
taken to his bed there is no need
of his having to do so, as my treat
ment will soon dissipate the trouble.
Even If the disease is well ad-
vanced, it may not be necessary for
me to see him. only to have clear
description of his case by one who
has been in attendance, when | can
send the required medicines, with di-
rections and advice. which, if faith
fully followed, will be sufficient.
But. if the patient is in grave dan
ger it will be necessary for me to
see him once or more.
Even those cases given up by 9TH
ers are accepted with the utmost con-
fidence. as among the hundreds which
have treated during the past sew
enteen years, | have lost but two,
and none have remained in bed to ex-
ceed eight days from my first visit.
