Your Railroad Fare Refunded

no more to be compared to the advertising
columns of a newspaper than a pushcart
peddler on Broadway is to be compared
with John Wanamaker's great emporium.
The peddler attracts attention for mo-
ment if he be an expert, but the great store
rivets the eye and loosens the purse strings
of those whose trade is worth having. The
handful is crumped in the hand and soon
thrown aside. The newspaper is carried
home, read and reread and filed away.
There is something besides the advertising
re-entertainment, information-which
adds value to the advertising beside which
it is placed. Advertisements are read now
more than ever before, sometimes before
what is commonly known as news, for ad-
vertisements are sometimes the latest and
most vital news, vital to everyday life.
The headlines of an ad. can be made as
attractivs as the headlines of wedding
and the bargains offered as alluring as the
wedding feast. The business man who
talks to the readers Of a newspaper as he
talks to the customes in his store is the one
who wins. Use handbills and posters if
you wish, but place your great hope for
returns in the columns of your favorite
newspaper

Moot Court in Our School.

Visitors to Benton High School last
FRIDAY afternoon, as we'll as both teachers
and pupils, were afforded considerable
pleasure over mock trial. Two of the
pupils were in the ''prisoner's box'' to
answer TO the complaint of third. who
had lost some Of las chickens.
A neighbor, who is both teacher of ex-
perlence and lawyer, was present and
informs us that the ''court room" scene
and the trial were rich, and that manv
points were brought out that would have
inquired consplcuously in real trial The
assistant attorney for the State sometimes
works in this office. That afternoon he
ana his chief were in our composing room
grlevously airing their troubles and con-
sollng each other. Despite the fact that
the plaintiff saw two persons in his back
yard, heard one of them say ''Come on,
george, let's get away from here,'' and
heard the squawking of the chickens, and
another witness (John Mercer Sentell) saw
the accused kill, skin, cook and eat the
chickens, they could not prove them
guilty. They claim the jury was packed.
Some OF the visitors were summoned as
tales jurors, as will be seen below. The

Death of Mr.. j. F. Foster.

Jacob Elavel Foster, aged thirty seven
years, died Of consumption in Ell Paso,

Mr.. Foster, though native of Shreve-
port, had for some years made his home in
this parish, where he was engaged in
planting on the Foster plantation, near
Bossier City. He was widely known and
liked. He was at heart good man, as
we'll as an excellent manager and man
of untiring energy. He was also Jealous

ment. His death will be keenly felt and
marks distinct loss to the entire parish
