Publicity Pays.

A New York manufacturer who is
rircularizing consumers informs them
that SS00,000,O00 is being spent for
advertising in the United States each
year, and that this amounts to $40 per
capita. How would you like to save
for yourself the $40 apiece which adj
vertising is costing your family in the
increased cost of commodities? he
asks. The saving, of course, is to be
in part accomplished by using his I'M
advertised goods.
1t would be just as logical for a
manufacturer to solicit trade on the
ground that his rivals used up-to-date
machinery in the production of their
wares, while his was antiquated; that
they employed a host of statesmen,
while he got along with one or two;
that they had to pay freight on car
load lots, while he had to pay by the
hundred pounds; that their business
was more costly to conduct because
1t was a hundred times larger than
his.
Nobody saves money by buying
wares in the cost of selling which
there Is great waste, any more than

CLIFF TOWN HALL.
Village Board Favors Erection
of a Building to Cost
$1,000.
CONSIDERING A LOCATION
Marshal Milton Applies for Increase
in Salary-G. A. Shallberg Is
Appointed Attorney.

Carbon Cliff, June Erection of
a town hall was discussed at a meet
ing of Carbon Cliff village board. 1t
was practically decided that a two
story hall shall be built at a ceSt of
$1,000 but official action was post
poned till the July meeting. The site
for the new hall has not been secur-
ed and several locations are favored.
There is $4,000 in the village treas
ury, and for that reason the proposed
outlay can be made without incon-
venience. Town meetings are held
in Hennegan's hall at the present
time.
There is agitation in favor of rails
ing the salary of Marshal Steve Nit
ton from $50 to $65 per month. Mr..
Milton was appointed at the May
meeting, as was Attorney G. A. Shall
berg of Moline, who succeeds w. E.
Whiteside as village attorney. The
question of a raise in pay for the
marshal will be settled next month.

Saturday of this week Contractor
Anton Swenson of Silvis will COM
plete the execution of a contract
which called for $4,000 worth of con-
crete sidewalks in Carbon Cliff.
These walks have been laid on First,
Second and Third streets and on the
east side of First avenue. Nothing
has been done to the west side of
first avenue, the limits of which are
now subject to litigation and dispute.
In all $500 lineal feet of sidewalk
have been laid.

Jurors Must Chew Bread.

In the trial of a suit brought by the
federal government to stop the sale of
bleached flour it is said that the jurors
will be asked to chew bread made from
that commodity for comparison with
other flour. 1t would be interesting to
know whether the test was suggested
by the prosecution or the defense. To
discover whether the chemicals en-
ployed to impart an unnatural white
ness are prejudicial to health, as DR..
Wiley holds, a trial extending over
sary, and a considerable quantity of
the article concerning which suspicious
are entertained should be eaten daily.

Speaking of the census, the Cleve-
land Plain Dealer offers a suggestion
in point as follows:
When all the people are numbered,
When all of the adding is done,
When the books with the figures are
numbered.
There still may be missing just one.
The total may make US all jolly
Yet how can we carelessly grin?
To call it a census seems folly
If Teddy is not counted in.
