ABOUT ADVERTISING-NO.
 The Cannon That Modernized Japan
By Herbert Kaufman.

Business is no longer man to man con- tact. in which the merchant and the patron establish be,yonal bond, any more than bat, tie is hand-to-hand grapple, where bone and muscle and sinew decide the outcome. 1rude as we'll as qUa1 has changed in its aspect-bofh gre no7o fonght ct long range.
 Just as present day army ot heroes would have no opportunity to display the indfUtdnaI valor of its members, just SO merchant who counts upon his personal acqualntanceshlp tor success Is a relic of the past-a business dodo
 Japan changed her policy of excl usion to foreigners after fleet of warships battered down the Satsuma Notifications. The Samu- raj, who had hitherto considered their blades and bows good enough, discovered that one cannon was mightier than all the swords in tAem. Japan profted by the lesson: She did not wait until }urther ramparts were batteredto pieces, but was satisfied with her one experience and proceeded to modernize her methods
 The merchant who doesn't advertise is pretty much in the same position that in which Japan stood when her eyes were opened to the tact that fiucs had chauged. The long range publicity of a competitor will as surely destroy your business as the cannon of the foreigners cru1nbled the walls ot Sat s,,na Unless you take the lesson to heart unless you ,ralict the importance of advertising, not only as the means of extending your business but for de1cndlng it as well, you must be prepared to face the qucnces of folly as great as that of a duels Who expects to survive in contest in which his adoersWy bears s5to,d tcice Hle lcugIh of lis olM.
 Don't think that it's loo late to begin because there are so anv stores which have had the advantage of wears of cumulative advertising. The city is grow ing It will grow more next wear 1t needs i,lcrcoscd Trading acties just as it's hungry for new neighborhoods.
 Bu t clH agau support ueiglborhood aores Newspaper advertising has eliminated the strength of being locally byoWine and five cent street car fares have cut out the advantage of being aron1d the coyl,ey store five miles away reach out through the columns of the daily newspaper and draw your next door ncighbor to it's asles while you sit by and see the people block enticed away without yo,r being able to retaate supply customers to take their place.
 It is not question of your ability to stuHd tte coS of advertising but of being able to sHVllv ploAt i The thing have to consider ls not only an cy{1lsoH of Vtur business but holding vhut pou d. 1raIy haEf.
 Advertising is an in7vsD1e11t, the 1os of which is in the same proportion it's retlrls seeds to the ha5eN Aad it is just as preposterous for you to consider publicity expense as it would be for farmer to hesitate purchasing feytilisey if he discovered tAat he could hfo(h1b} lefe1N his crops bN employing t.

game laws and the little niceties OF
hunting as we are up north, 1 had
frequently seen water fowl shot with

nice string of duck. He sat next me
in the smoker and struck up con-

Where did you get them?I asked.

Where He Drew the Line.

A famous English barrister was
upon one occasion called upon to de-
fend a cook tried for murder, being ac.
cused of having poisoned his master.
The barrister, after a most able and
brilliant defense of the culprit, Sc
cured an acquittal. The cook, anxious
to show his gratitude, said: Tell me,
sir, whatever can 1 do for you to re-
ward you?" The triumphant counsel
answered: my good man do any
thing you can, but for Gods sake,
don't ever cook for me-"

The Mean Man Analn.

Come on, son." said the old farmer
after the daybreak breakfast, "and
We'll get out in the fields and start
plowing"
But 1 can't plow to-day" protested
the youngster, II have chills. Why
dad, am shaking all over"
The old farmer grinned and took a
fresh chew
"All the better, my son. If you can't
plow you can scatter the seed. All
you have to do is to hold them in your
hand and every time you shake it will
send them in all directions. Better
than patent seeder, begosh."

brows curiously. A slight flush made
her pretty face even prettier.
When Miss Stanhope made short

to Mr.. Petruchio Barnes, wealthy

Lady Darnford was bold enough to
make the above remark.
Victoria Indignantly denied the allie

clared the older woman. Better far

he has only his pay at present, he is
his grandfather's heir, and will in

of our horses that had fistula. We

1t was so bad that he did not think he

Then we tried Sloan's Liniment and

Pants for the orphans.

There is a praiseworthy custom in
some families of sending all the
pants" that the boys have gone
through, wholly or in part, to the asy.
lum for orphans, and, as the orphans
never mind hole more or less, they
are glad to get the garments. In one
of these families few days ago oc'
Cured little incident bearing on this
laudable custom. Fred was engaged
in that extremely fascinating, but
rather dangerous, sport of sliding

Three years ago was attracted by
an article on Grape-Nuts and decided
to try it.
MY stomach was so weak I could
not take cream, but l used Grape Nuts
with milk and lime water. 1t helped
me from the first, building up my sys-

the friends who had thought my re-
covery impossible.
Soon I was able to take Grape
Nuts and cream for breakfast, and
lunch at night, with an egg and Grape

and nearly all vegetables for dinner,

breakfast and supper.
