HARTMAN FILES NEW
+. R|CHT-0F-WAY
MONTANA, IDAHO AND PACIFIC
RAILROAD TO ENTER LoLo
AND CLEARWATER. 3d..

If reports are true regarding the
connection of certain men with Har-
riman, then that great railroad organ
izer is to have ii line through the
Clearwater country of Idaho and the
Lolo country of the Bitter Root val
ley, this being made evident by the
filing of the map showing the right
ofway of the Montana, Idaho & Pa
cific Railroad company, which was
yesterday placed in the land office in
Missoua.
The Route.
The map, as filed yesterday, gives
the beginning of the new road at the
Buckhouse bridge, about seven miles
southwest of tn, city of Mssoula.
From this point the road runs to the
town of Lolo, along the Bitter Root
river, running from there toward the
| Idaho line for a distance of about IA
miles, making a total length of over
20 miles. The map is signed by j. FL.
Richards as president and George
w. Boschke as chief engineer, both
of the Montana, Idaho & Pacific Rail-
road company. If it can be proved that
these men are connected with the
Hartman system, all doubt as to the
latters connection with the enterprise
will be dispelled. 1t is considered to
be fairly certain that the new road is
a Hartman road and WILL when COM
pleted, act as a feeder for the Oregon
Railroad & Navigation company. Like
the right way of the Clearwater
Short Line railway, filed by the North
ern Pacific several days ago, this road
is expected to open up the Idaho Clear
water country and throw open that
fertile country to settlement and more
extensive cultivation. 1t will also make
possible the cutting of much timber
on the Clearwater national forest,
which, because of the lack of railway
facilities, has been neglected, await
ing the building of road through the
country.
No Conflict.
But, according to the maps as filed,
the two lines do not as yet conflict;
in fact, they do not even SO much as
approach each other, comparatively
speaking. The line Of the Clearwater
olliJIL Line DGSlIlS dL IL point duUul
three miles west of Lolo station, on
the Bitter Root branch Of the North
crn Pacific, running thence over three
townships to the west, directly through
the Lolo pass, and passing close to
1.olo Hot Springs; whereas, the map
filed yesterday shows that the new
Hartman line, if Hartman 1t is, be-
gins southwest of Missoula few miles
and runs to the town of Lolo, thence
along the Lolo river for Ia miles. The
roads are not even parallel. -.g
The filing of the right-of-way map
yesterday does away, apparently, with
1.-the rumors which stated that the line
| of the Clearwater Short Line would
be used jointly by the Northern Pa
cific and oregon Railroad & Naviga-
ton company. story, emanating
from Portland, one day in the early
part of the week, was to the above
effect. but it will probably be con-
tradicted now.

In Columbus park you see some
very fine specimens of the royal palm.
Columbus cemetery is most beauti-

Never to be forgotten are the fine,
dark, lustrous eyes of the women and

long eyelashes set off and fit the eyes

very large proportion of the young

Boston a proportion almost as large.
Here no young women or girls wear

In Havana there is hardly any d.

CORRECT ARRANGEMENT OF THE
BODY OF A LETTER,

Nothing is more Objectionable to the
business eye than beginning the body
of letter on the same line with the
salutation. Old-fashioned books show
the body of the letter begun on the
line with the salutation when the salu.
tation is indented, but the whole ar.
rangement is now out of style
The best custom seems to follow the
salutation with colon alone, though
the colon and dash are more general
The old-fashioned comma and dash, or
comma alone, are very seldom found
In modern business letters, though the
comma is used almost exclusively in
England, and the comma and dash
very commonly in social correspond
ence.
The body of the letter may be looked
on as forming a paragraph, and so
should be given paragraph indenta-
ton under the salutation, or the type
writer may simply be turned up a
notch and the letter continued from a
point just under the punctuation after
the salutation. prefer this usage and
OShS'O ~ 40 AiShl, buI TIC UCoI UuSl-
ness houses seem to give decided pref
erence to making the body of the let
ter begin with regular paragraph in
dentation.
The paragraph indentation on the
typewriter should never be less than
five spaces, nor more than ten. We
sometimes see paragraphs started half
way across the page, but that appears
to betray ignorance.
At one time the double spacing of
typewriter letters was considered the
best form, and that is still preferred
when letters are very short; but in
these days of frightening letters, dou-
BILE spacing is really Objectionable.
The best way is to put double spacing
between the paragraphs only, and
make the paragraphs relatively short.
Then each separate idea stands clearly
by itself, and the paragraph can be
used for emphasis with great effect.
When the whole letter is double
spaced the paragraphs do not stand
out, and paragraph emphasis (Which 1
will explain later cannot be used. The
development of paragraph emphasis
permits single sentence to be divided
into paragraphs, the emphatic clauses
or phrases being put into paragraphs
by themselves.

HOW TO WRITE EFFECTIVE AD-
VERTiSING.

Most people think advertising Is
mysterious art, some magic of words
which the ordinary person cannot
fathom.
1t is really very simple, and every
person engaged in business of any kind
ought to understand what it is and
how to write it, whether in sales let
tiers or newspaper copy. And the man
who runs business is the one who
can best advertise it. The letter form
is the easiest to write and the best to
begin with.
You bought certain goods for certain
reasons. You thought of such and such
customers, who would be pleased for
special reasons in your mind.
Just sit down and tell your friends,
in the simplest and most straightfor-
ward style you can, all the news about
what you've bought. and why you
bought it for them. Be frank and hon.
est and simple and clear about it. Don't
leave them to guess. Don't take it for
granted they know all about it already.
Tell them as you would tell child.
Take nothing for granted.
And remember that it is hustle and
enthusiasm that sell goods. Don't be
afraid to be enthusiastic. Be emphatic.
If you know what your monopoly is,
you can speak in superlatives, in all
kinds Of superlatives, and mean to the
bottom of your heart every word you
say.
Enthusiasm is catching. If you are
really enthusiastic yourself, as you can
be if you see and know that you have
something better than anything else in
the world your customers can get, or
cheaper, there is no limit to your en-
thusiasm but your own lack of strength
and energy. Having got started on the
right track, it is matter of hard work,
it is matter of intense thought, and
of trying this thing and that thing and
the other till you get that which sells
best, and with largest profit.
Just as soon as you begin to feel the
interest of your customers, and get
their response to what you say, so you
have self-confidence, advertising your
business will become pleasure, you'll
be proud of it, and you'll work at it
harder than ever. There's no better
work for the head of any business, and
10 mere clever writer can be half SO
effective as the man who knows, be-
cause he has built the business from
the bottom

The Right Way to Write Letters
G----] By Sherwin Cody -


talk it the better your advertising will
pay. / know one retail grocery store
| in small town that has made a splen-
etor has learned to talk about the
quality of his groceries every time he
mentions low prices. A low price and
| high quality is a combination hard to
beat.
But most advertisers don't know how
to talk quality. To say This is fine
suit of clothes for the money" or This
is the best grade of coffee that you can
buy" counts for little when everybody
else is saying just the same thing.
Everybody says he has the best, or the
best for the money. Obviously one of
the dozen or so saying this must have
the truth on his side, and all the others
are deceivers. How is the customer
going to tell the difference?
Claims must be proved, and the most
obvious way is to tell just how a given
article is better, so that the customer
can look for the points and see them
himself. The average man sees only
what is pointed out to him. He is no
Judge and he knows it. But you can
show him how to be judge, and then
he has confidence in what you point
out to him. This coffee is three years
old! it has had time to ripen. You see
the berries are full and plump-no
small ones. Those white flakes or
scales that appear when the coffee is
ground are sign of good coffee This
coffee is fresh roasted, by the most sci,
entific process of roasting, and we get
it fresh every week. We mix genuine
Old Government Java in our coffee, so
as to give it that delicate flavor and
aroma which you won't find anywhere
else. All these details carry convic-
ton. If you haven't got them, you don't
know what you're buying, and you
have nothing to advertise.
1t is not practicable to use testimo-
malls in proving the quality of standard
goods, but in the case of special manu-
features, proprietary medicines, or the
like, the sworn and detailed testimony
of actual users is not only valuable but
often absolutely necessary. The bust
ness man should seek this evidence,
Just as a lawyer would seek evidence
to present in court, and really prove
his case to jury of his peers.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1909-05-14

chooses that which he believes the
best for one reason or another. I'm
| less business man has monopoly,
or knows what his monopoly is, he has
no basis for reason why" advertising.
And it is a fact that many successful
business men do not know why they
are successful, or don't analyze and
consider why, so that in their public
ity they can urge that special reason
with great emphasis and persistence.
To be successful in their advertising
they must find that out first of all.
For example, corner drug store has
monopoly of convenience for all who
live in the vicinity. When rival
opens up across the street he sacrifices
that advantage, and will surely fail un-
less he can offer something that the
other store doesn't have, since GUS
toners have formed the habit of going
to the other place and will not change
the habit without knowing good rea-
son. The new store must have larger
or finer stock, sell at lower prices, or
offer attractive novelties.
The two most successful department
stores in Chicago have monopolies that
distinguish them. One Is the cheapest
store in town, specializing on buying
cheap goods and selling all goods at
least one cent below any other store.
1t has an enormous and extremely
profitable business. The other is the
largest and best store in town. 1t has
goods to be found nowhere else, it has
goods of higher quality, and it has a
monopoly of the buyers who care for
quality and not for price.
Another store is widely known as
the best place to buy silks, another as
the best place to buy groceries. OF the
two high-class grocery stores, one has
the best coffee, the other has the best
imported fruits. Still another has the
best stock Of medium grade goods,
another makes the most prompt deliv-
cries, another gives the easiest credit.
There is a certain amount of floating
custom that will drift into any store,
and perhaps large part Of the goods
in any store are the same as will be
found in the rival But success is in
variably built on holding trade by Of
fering some advantage that can be Sc
cured nowhere else. When you find
that monopoly, make the most of it.

THE FORMAL CLOSE OF
A BUSINESS LETTER.

Many il not most business houses
have stereotyped way of closing their
letters, such as Yours truly" very
truly yours" or the like, and the ste.
nographers put this in on all occasions,
but the close may be used in limited
way for business purposes.
Respectfully yours" is entirely out
of date except when writing to a
grave superior, as in applying for a
position to the head of a company.
Sincerely yours" seems too personal
for business and ought to be reserved
for social correspondence. Cordially
yours" is the most personal close COM
monty permitted in business letters,
and that only when a personal rela-
tionship is to be indicated. When a
writer wants to make the reader of
his letter feel close personal interest,
he will prefer this form.
1t is to be noted that the formal
close of letter should begin about
half way across the page, and only the
first word should ever be capitalized
To capitalize any word except the first
is looked on as an indication of the
country, as Dear Friend" would be
in the salutation.
Many business men fall into the
habit of always writing 1--WE are" at
the end of the letter by way of intro
ducing the formal close, or sometimes
they prefer I'VE remain" but that is
usually bad habit. Trusting this
will be satisfactory, we are, Yours
truly" Is mere formality, and the
phrase at tho olocc should he made to
convey a real personal meaning, just
as do the good wishes of the clever
personal salesman when he leaves his
customer. They should have heart
and intelligence in them.
1--WE are" or eve remain" should not
be followed by a comma, as the SEN
tence is continuous, though the ar
rangement indicates break At the
same time these words are so clearly
implied that the grammatical rules re-
quiring subject and predicate in
every sentence Expressed or implied)
are fully complied with even when we
write, Thanking you kindly for your
consideration in this matter, Very
truly yours" Sticklers for grammati-
cal rules who insist on inserting the
words, overlook the word implied"
