BANKS AND ADVERTISING.

The fact that the deposits in the
Oneida On. " Savings bank have
increased about $4,000 during the
past six months, and this in spite OF
the cry that many people were out
of employment, is unquestioned evil
dence, says the Oneida Dispatch,
that il pays bank as well as mer-
chants to advertise. Some OF the
more skeptcal trustees may still pro-
fess to believe that this increase was
due to natural business growth or
to other influences or enterprise on
their part; but, inasmuch as the
bank has carried an advertisement
in the local press for about year,
they must admit that advertising was
partly or wholly the means of bring
ing in this extra large sum of money.
The increase is there, and no one
can deny that the advertising influ-
enced much of it.
Banks in other cities have in
creased both their deposits and as
sets through intelligent and system
attic advertising. In Pittsburg the
banks that advertise in the news
papers show an increase in assets
of 80 per cent and in deposits of 50
per cent in a period of five years,
while those that did not advertise
gained in the same time only 81
per cent in deposits and II per cent
in assets.
What is true in this regard Of the
banking business is undoubtedly true
Of other forms of activity. 1t is
the man who advertises persistently
and intelligently who wins the big
prizes in the business world.

YOUNG FARMER IS MARKED MAN
Two Attempts Have Been Made to
Assassinste Fmmit 0kclIIy.

That Emmett OReilly, a proni-
nent young farmer of the Boyce com
munity. has been marked for death
by some one who holds a grudge
against him, is indicated by the fact
that two attempts have been made to
assassinate him. The attacks which
have been made upon young Reilly
occurred in the same vicinity, and
the superstition is that one man has
been doing ali the shooting.
Mr.. O'Reilly lives about lille and
half north of Boyce. Last Thurs
day night he visited the little village
on matter of business, and while
on his way home he was fired upon
twice by some unknown party. Mr..
O'Reilly's assailant was concealed in
a corn field near the road side, and
although the little leaden missiles
missed their mark they wihstled I'M
fissed their mark they whistled UNI
comfortably close to the young mans
head Although it was a close call
for Mr.. O'Reilly. he treated the mat
ter lightly, thinking it was the prank
of some boys who were trying to
brighten him. But he has now
changed his mind relative to the af-
! fair being a joke When a second
attempts to assassinate the young
man was made Saturday night he
became convinced in his own mind
that some unknown person had de-
termined to get him out of the way.
/ The second attack occurred in close
proximity to the scene of the flrst
tone The young man was returning
home from Boyce and while riding
along the road near where he was
fired upon Thursday night he heard
the sharp crack of revolver and
bullet cut its way through his nat
Rv a mere chance, however, he had
. his hat in his hand and was holding
il in front of his face. He had Just
removed his hat to brush back his
! hair when the shot was fired. MI.
I O'Reilly heard or saw no one, and
! he cannot account for the attacks
that have been made upon him IN
THE darkness of the night.
! The matter was reported to the
officers and an effort was made to
run down the guilty party. Sherlii
Forbes hloodhounds, which are be-
ing kept by Deputy Sheriff Godfrey
! at Howard were taken to the scene
of the shooting They soon struck
trail and followed 1t until negro
was overtaken. The black man was
able to give a good account OF
himself and he was allowed to pro
coed or his way. SO far the Off,
GERS have been unable to develop
clew that would lead to the arrest
of Mr. O'Reilly's assailant

Dear Sir: Would you rather
have your customers speak of your
shoes as wearing well, as not run
ming down at the heel, as turning
water, and taking a shine; or ~. ; :,
their heads and say G9thing?
We'd rather have ours at long
intervals, say: Eve want some more
paint. and we want Devoe.' We
know it isn't in human nature 10
paint very often: we don't expect
them to come very often; don't want

they have to paint, whenever they
paint it, the longer the time, the

take their time.

IT'S 4 LOST VIRTUE.

Politeness and refined manners
are better asset for a young man
than money or educstton alone. Mere
ability, wiLLs1Ty the inherent or ac-
quiJa1I accomplishments of good
manners viii achieve less of success
than the latter, with mediocrity.
But politeness seems to be one of
the lost virtues. The boy of today,
especially TO his elders, as an evil
dence of that sort of smartness that
distinguishes the heroes of the tough
element Of society To hear a boy
of respectable family speak to men
with the slangy curtness he uses
with his own associates, is enough
10 destrop hope of their ever being
anything but vulgar toughs, The
words, sir. thank you, if you please,
and many other expressions Of re-
finement and good breeding, have
no place in the vocabulary The
whether the person addressed is de-
serving of polite attention or not,
but whether the boy has gentlemanly
instincts or not. Next time man
old enough 10 be your father or
grandfather speaks to you, think of
this. my boy, before you answer him
with language that befits the gutter
or reformatory There is some
thing radically wrong with the moral
and intellectual equipment of boy
who has no respect for his elders

rarely welcomed in any state, aud
there are hearty amens when 1t Is

do Lot realize the Importance of con

of these bodies is due TO the fact
that common sense and common fair
ness between man and man are sac
rificed to demagogic and unneces-
sary laws conceived in ignorance and
enacted under the false cry of re-
form"
Every word of this is true. How
ever much the people may becoNe
stirred by demagogic appeals, dur
ing the campaign, they generally be-
come cool enough to fear demago$lc
activity when legislative bodies as

ouacks clothed with legislative pow

spread that it is generally pest 10

We are running entirely too much
to government in this country. rms
is as true of the states as of the
federal authority The Jefterson'an
maxim that that country is governed
best which is governed least has ar-
among men who aspire to lead the
people. They seem to forget that
every time a statute is placed upon
the books, some measure of liberty
is destroyed, and they proceed with
their law-making as If law were the
great objective of craftsmanship.
If the legislative sessions OF the
average state lasted six or eight
months a year, it would require but
a decade to destroy human liberty.
Nothing could confer upon the aver
age state such an inestimable bless
ing as one legislative session de-
voted to the repeal of foolish, vicious
and unnecessary laws
1t is not conceivable that frac-
ton of the half-baked enactments
that find their way TO the statute
books represents the deliberate
Judgment of the men who wrote
them. Then why are such enact
ments embodied in our laws? Simply
because men ambitious for offlce
must vie with each other in appeal
ing TO class prejudice and attempt
ing to win the sympathy OF the
masses by putting crimp in the al
fairs of men supposed to be pros
porous Class prejudice is based
upon ignorance, and demagogy is
based upon class prejudice--a com
hination that finds its most common
expression in restricted persona
rights and the interruption Of pro
gressiye effort to improve the con
ditions of a state or nation.
The remedy for this condition o
affairs will come when the people
discover how they are trifled witt
and when they put quietus -upoI

gogues Houston Post.
