The Merchant Who Wins.

A newspaper with 1000 subscribers
has 5000 readers, A merchant who
puts out 1000 handbills possibly gets
400 people to read them, that is II the
boy who distributes them doesn 'tchuck
them under the side walk, The hand
bills cost as much as a column adver
tisement In the home paper All the
women and girls and most Of the men
and boys read the home paper and-the
advertisements. Result-the mer-
chant who uses the paper has 5000 or
more readers to each 1000 Of the hand
bill readers. There is no estimating
the amount OF business that advertis'
ing bring TO merchant, but the
right kind OF newspaper advertising
always brings results.

For Ten Cents.

Larue Herald That preacher asked
aquestion that should have set the
world 60 thinking when he wanted to
know the other day how much good
would be accomplished for christianity
should the same amount Of money,
the same degree OF interest and the
similar effort be exerted to promote
the cause of Christ that is being spent
on the election Of the president.
Take day of and figure on II. There
will be more money used between now
and the coming OF the November
election than has been spent for re
ligion In years-and all to show that
one "Billie" is better than another
"Billie" while some of the voters
would decide either way for ten cents.

1t should be kept In mind that the
outside world must judge a communi
ty. a town or city by the results seen
on the surface. II the people OF a
place do not show their faith In their
home town by their works, where will
stranger look for the points that
must determine his action, In seeking
location for factory or home? It
does not take stranger long to detect
a dead town. Indifferent merchants,
carelessness In the appearance of the
streets and alleys, and a general In
dolence will appear TO the outsider
much sooner than these things will be
detected by the resident. And when
the stranger finds these things he will
quickly take his departure from the
place Of dry bones and bodies moving
without spirit. When merchants lay
down, customers are pretty sure to
follow suit, and thence there is dead
town and no mistake. Under such
conditions 1t takes a pretty strong
blast from the business ougle to call
the dead to life. 1t is mighty good
plan for each one to examine himself
and see II he is doing all that duty
and desire for progress requires.

TO REDUCE NUMBER OF
 LICENSED OPIUM HOUSES

Shanghai, Sunday. April 5.-The Shanghai municipal council. which has control of the settlements tn Shanghai in which the foreigners reside, decided at itsslAst meeting, March 20. ''that the number of licensed opium houses be reduced by one-quarter from July l. 1908, or from such earlier date, and in such manner as may appear advisable to the council" An amendment to this resolution. was introduced to the effect "that the council, be instructed to arrange for the closing of all H. consed opium houses on or before De- cember 3i, 1908. or as much earlier as may be practicable.'
 The amendment was meant as an in- struction to the municipal council to close up all the opium dens at one time and at as early date as possible instead of closing them up in Install ments and extending the process over the space of two or three years. The annendmAnt was supported by 12S against sa who favored the plan inau- wurated by the municipal council. There was A very strong indication that a large body of Shanghai residents de- sire to see the opium houses closed at once, and this opinion has had great weight with the new council. Already an action has been, taken by the Coun- eli in which 1t Is stated that the para mount object in view ts to make the measure of closing one quarter of the dens a true test of the probable result of total suspension.
 The existing licensed houses amount ing to l,437. are said to be divided into eighteen lists and selection will be by lot the drawing of which will be con dncted in A public place in the pres snca of three representative members of the Chinese community,
