Advertising creates business. It makes people

merchandising always wanting from people
everywhere.
Don't expect advertising to do more than its
share. however. which is to interest people in what
you havs sell, to the extent Of making them
about it. Listless tactless clerks, poorly
arranged goods have killed the effect of many

The selection Of media is of prim- Importance. The
character of judged by the character of the
medium in which its announcements appears. Mere
circulation is the least point b: considered. What
kind of Observation-Disclosures what really counts.

DIG UP BOAR SUNK in 1874
Chicago Sewer Workers Find Hulk
Embedded in Reclaimed Land.


Chicago, Nov. 2.--The skeleton of a
beat unearthed several days ago by
workmen digging sewer ditch on the
north shore of Lake Michigan, few
blocks north of the Chicago river, was
identified today as the remnants Of the
steam barge Dispatch, which was
wrecked during d terrific storm In
October, 1874.
The hulk was identified by E- r.
Lewis, an old lake captain and former
owner OF the Dispatch. Captain Lewis
related how he and four others had
been forced to swim to shore with life
preservers after the Dispatch had
been wrecked in the storm which con-
tinued furiously for twelve days. The
boat. which was loaded with sand.
sank half mile from shore, before the
survivors reached safety.
Efforts were later made to raise the
wreck but failed. Since that time the
lake had been filled in and the Dis
patch was found buried in land that
now is q part Of the city.

PAINT DURABILITY.

The first thought in painting should,
OF course, be durability-and dura.
bility means simply pure paint prop
erly applied. Pure paint is pure
white lead and linseed oil with or
without tinting materially.
Some years ago the paint-buyer was
likely to get adulterated or counter
felt white lead If he was not familiar
with brands. To-day he may buy
with perfect safety if he only makes
sure that the Dutch Boy Painter
trademark is on the packages Of
white lead that he buys. This trade
mark was adopted by National Lead
Company to distinguish the pure
white lead made by them from the
worthless adulterated and fake goods.
1t is a guarantee as valuable to the
house-owner as the education Of q
paint expert could be.

off the coast of Morocco. Capt. Sa-
conney has been working for months
past to develop: a machine that would
produce a clear and detailed view of
a country, its forts, encampments and
general outlines. The results have
gone beyond all expectations. A pho

taken by this wonderful camera at an
altitude of 400 yards and three miles
from shore.
In structure this machine resem-

scend at the will Of the operator.
When the desired height is attained

that it can be placed on the deck of
a boat, and worked at sea with as
satisfactory results as from the land.

named Death Face, one of the most
treacherous of Apaches. About a year
ago on his death-bed this Indian told
Two Braids that he had not drop of
Indian blood In his veins, and that he
was a paleface and had been kidnapped
by. the Apaches 40 years ago in Texas
Death Face could not remember the
name Of the place, but he described
the incident and the locality. Two
Braids. took up the trail, which he
followed with logged tenacity for IL
months. When he had found the spot
and met old residents who remem-
bered his parents he received permis-
sion to leave Fort Sill reservation in
Oklahoma, and. taking his daughter
with him, he travelled back to the
scene of his childhood days. He met
his sister, and the battle-scarred un.
couth warrior and the gentle paIeface
woman wept for joy for their recogni.
ton was mutual and positive. ...
Though living with the Apaches for
40 years, Two Braids swears he never
took human life and that he worried
about the crimes his brothers com.
mitted on the raids to which he was
a rarty. Twenty-three years ago,
when a band ofsApaches was rounded
up and captured in western Texas
after long series of depredations in.
GLIDING murders, burning of farm
property and pillage, Two Braids was
in the band. They were taken to
San Antonio and shipped from there
to Florida and later to Fort Sill. Okla.
Two Braids hair is long, but not as
black and not as coarse as an Indians.
His cheekbones are not high.
With his sister he visited the graves
of their parents, who were laid to rest
at the mouth of San Jose creek and
on the banks of the River Nueces.
Two Braids is raising fund with
which to erect a marble shaft to the
memory of his parents and the sub.
scription list has grown to several
hundred dollars.
