Our Common Protector.

Did you ever think that the govern.
ment is a great obliterator of prize
schemes. premium games. adulterated
foods, etc. II surely is. and the time
is not far of when it will take a hand
in the methods OF selling goods. and
let IL be hoped cut out such schemes
as coupons and the premiums in gen.
eral. Fraud one way is just as bad as
fraud some other way. The lottery
principle involves the plan of making
a great majority contribute toward the
payment of sums to a mighty small
minority. The average premium
scheme works with more certainty. II
means that all the users of goods with
which premiums are given must con.
tribute towards paying for prizes
which only about 30 or 40 per cent of
the users OF the goods receive. There
are two ways of heading of the
premium deal: One is to educate the
merchants and the consumers to the
truth that the premium racket is
plan that works against their inter.
ests. and the other is to have the gov.
ernment prohibit the plan. The for
mer is hayd proposition to handle,
and perhaps the latter is equally so.
but 1t is more certain and would be
more effective.

Priveleaes of Old AGE.

That mention that | have acquired
new and great privileges by grace of
my age Is not an uncalculated remark.
When | passed the SEVENTEEN mile
stone, ten months ago, | instantly real
lied that | had entered a new country
and new atmosphere. To all the pub
lie | was become recognizably old, un-
deniably old; and from that moment
everybody assumed a new attitude to-
ward me-the reverent attitude grant
ed by custom to age-and straightway
the stream of generous new privileges
began to flow in upon me and refresh
my life. Since then / have lived an
ideal existence; and / now believe
what Choate said last March, and
which at that time didn't credit; that
the best of life begins at seventy; for
then your work is done; you know that
you have done your best, let the quail
ity of the work be what IL may: that
you have earned your holiday-a holi-
day of peace and contentment-and
that henceforth. to the setting OF your
sun. nothing will break 1t. nothing In
terrupt it.-Mark Twain's Autobiog-
raphy.

Personal Advertising.

Advertising of the proper kind al.
ways pays. whether II is by circular,
letter, billboard or the columns of the
local paper. The newspapers are by
far the best mediums and the least
expensive in the long run. Yet 1t may
be not amiss to back up your news.
paper advertising with circulars now
and then. or better still, by letters.
Merchants in small towns sometime rs
labor under the impression that they
are well known to all in the communi
ty; that there is little need of advcr.
tising. as there is only SO much trade
TO be had and II will naturally drist
their way. This reasoning Is wrong
1t matters not If Mr.. John Jones visits
your store daily. he will appreciate
getting letter from you calling his
attention to some new things that
perhaps he has been studying up in
the mail-order house catalogue. II is
a pretty good idea to spend a few dol
lars in special advertising every time
you get in stock anything new and
salable. Dollars spent In advertising
are never lost II good judgment is ex.
ercised In the construction of the
notice.

HOW LOSSES OCCUR.
Investors Fail to Study Financial Mat.
ters Closely and Act UnwiseIy.

The great masses of people do not
give sufficient study to financial mat
ters. The farmer who is employed from
early morning till late at night has no
time to study into things outside Of
those that directly relate to his occu-
patton. The same with the average
laborer. When either have a little
surplus money to invest they are easy
victims of the schemers who make
great promises, plausible arguments.
and with juggling of figures show
how little money can be made to earn
great interest. II is always safe to
seek investment OF surplus money in
local Investments. You are certain
that II you use good judgment you
cannot lose. When you place your
money into the hands of schemers In
some distant place and OF whom you
know little. there is a chance that
you win be the loser and that chance
" strong against you.

The Proud Widow.

"That famous editor and statesman.
Charles Emory Smith," said Philadel-
phia journalist, was modest man.
He believed in modesty-even in jour
nalism. He thought it paid no better
for a newspaper than for a man con-
tinually to be Dragging.
q once drew up prospectus for
him. There were several blatantly
boastful paragraphs in it, and Mr..
Smith ran his pencil through them all.
" If let this CO. he said, it would
be pretty near as bad as the epitaph
that the young widow carved on her
aged husbands tomb. This epitaph
said:
" Sacred to the memory of John
James Greer. aged eighty-four. who de-
parted this life bitterly regretting that
he must leave forever the most beau

abe curious effect of slow daily poi

vivid that nothing else could be seen

She says:
This gradual failure of sight
alarmed me and l naturally began n
very earnest quest for the cause.
About this time was told that cof-
fee poisoning sometimes took that

coffee was the cause of my trouble, l

OUR COUNTRY PRESS.
1t Is Making Progress and Is Impor.
tant to Wide-Awake Advertiser.

Close estimates show that adver.
tising in country papers has increased
fully 20 per cent. the past five years.
This shows that the merchants are
realizing how important it is to ad-
vertise, and also shows that there is
merit in the right kind of use of print
ers' ink, or there would be a decrease
instead of a continual increase There
can be no doubt that the inroads of
the mail order houses into trade in
different parts of the country have
aroused merchants to the necessity of
more extensive advertising.
One of the things that has no doubt
stimulated advertising is the practice
of many manufacturers supplying deal
ers with electrotypes and ready pre-
pared advertising. There can be no
doubt the trade papers have been i'm.
portant mediums in the matter of in
fiuencing merchants to do more and
better advertising. 1t matters not how
the change has been wrought, but 1t Is
fact that advertising patronage of
the country newspaper publishers has
been increased about 20 per cent in
five years. This means that the mer
chants are getting their eyes open,
and are on the right path for the pro-
lection of their interests.
Now is the time to start at work
on spring and summer advertising.
There will be a heavy trade the COM
ing seasons. The people have abund.
ance of ready cash and they are
anxious to spend some of it for things
that they want. The live merchant is
going to get his share OF it

WANTED THE WORLDS OPINION.
Prisoner Had to Have That, Thous
He Went Without Luxuries.

A certain prisoner landed in Jail al
most penniless. He was a man who
had figured in a number of the towns
shady transactions and his name was
pretty well known. A few days after
his Incarceration he wrote to a friend
asking for monthly allowance of ten
dollars to be continued during his
term of Imprisonment. The friend, re-
membering past favors. remitted the
amount each month during a period
that covered two trials and the long
time intervening. One day il occurred
to him to inquire into the manner of
expending the allowance. He sup
posed IL was used to buy occasional
extra meals, few cigars and newspa-
pers. but just as a matter of curiosity
he asked for particulars. He found. to
his astonishment. that the prisoner
had never ordered an extra meal and
had not smoked a cigar all the time
he had been in Jail.
Then what in thunder" demand
ed the man, have you been doing
with that ten dollars a month";"
Il subscribed to two press clipping
bureaus" replied the prisoner coolly.
You don't suppose. do you. that am
going to pass through this. the most
critical time of my life. without find
ing out what everybody has got to say
about me?"

Has the eagle which occupied the
cage in Jekyl square for so long a time,
and which recently disappeared, been
captured?
Ii will be remembered that this
eagle. which was the property Of the
local aerie Of Eagles, remained in the
csge and around the squares for many
months. The bird would go away and
remain for days, but would always re-
turn a few months ago, however, the
eagle disappeared and has not since
been seen. A dispatch from Com
nerce. Ga, states that en eagle was
captured near there, and it may be
the one which disappeared from this
city. The dispatch from Commerce is
as follows:
There is a genuine eagle in this
place. II was caught by Richard Jones
On Sandy creek, four miles south Of
town. Some sportsman had shot at
the bird and broke its leg and after
some considerable effort the eagle was
captured alive 1t is not very wild,
however, which leads to the conclus-
