Power of Advertising.

Mainly through the efficacy of a
little advertisement in a Hartford
newspaper two long separated broth
ers have been reunited after the lapse
of sixty years. The principals in the
reunion are Rev. DR.. Edgar F. Clark
of Providence, R. l., formerly of Taun-
ton, and Edwin Clark of Butte, Mont,
who is now eighty-one years old. Early
in this year the western miner re-
tired from business and began to
think of his old home and his family.
Then he inserted the advertisement,
which was seen by some of his former
acquaintance and forwarded to the
clergyman at his summer home at
Martha's Vineyard

THE PEOPLES FORUM.
THE DOG-SHEEP DEBATE.
The Sheep Mans Answer Point.

Hlllman, Miss, Noy. 9th, 1870
Mr.. Editor:-If you can fad space in
the columns of the Herald, l will say
one thing in regard to the dog sheep
question.
Ali the dog men wants me to read
nv Bible more and | will admit that
it would be good for me, but at the
same time l expect some OF the dog
men, as they call me the sheep man,
ought to read theirs more too and
they would see hich the Good Sa-
vior had on the right, the dog or
the sheep.
Mr.. Mills seems to think that the
dogs should not be taxed because
they have been here every since the
foundation of the world, but | can t
see where that would make and diff
ference, The people have been here
as long as the dogs and they are tax
ed and he seems to think that the
woods full of dogs would be better
than full of sheep. I can t see it that
way and | never saw wild cats kill
sheep by the bunch. I will admit
that the cats will catch lambs but
our Hiilman wild cats don't kill the
whole drove at once like Mr.. Mills
did. If they did ] would want the
goods full OF dogs too,
Well as our Hillman Subscriber
told it to all in PLAIN English l close,
l thank you very much.

Much has been written on the sub

is with one purpose in vlew-he
works strives and slaves, patiently

The man who. for their sakes, faces

And now, little woman, a word

LeakesvilIe High School Notes
Furnished by pupil assigned each month
by the Principal and under his espionage
By Miss Annie McInnis, Pupil.

1t affords me great pleasure to
write of our happy band of Teachers
and pupils. I can candidly say our
school this session is successful so far
1t has been running two months now,
and all the pupils seem TO be in love
with our Principal, Prof. Pannell, )
he being delightful master. In
rain or sunshine his Smiles are the
same. Surely his aim in life is the up
lifting of humanity and if each of US
obey his commandments l am sure
success will be our lot.
Being one of Prof, Panuell S pupils
| cannot say how the other teachers
are progressing, only by the imprse-
ion given me by rumor. All the
children seem to love their teacher.
We girls do have fun playing bas-
ket ball. We have selected our
match-team now as follows: Maggie
Breland, right forward; B e h a
Green, left forward; Annie McInnis
right guard; Nancy Miller, left guard,
Leila Smith, Captain. We are ex-
pecting a game Thanksgiving and in
vite everybody to come out and enjoy
the game with US.
Mr.. Dan Hyott has joined Our
school and every one of us girls have
been fussing over him. Prof. Pan
nell is about to become jealous l be-
lieve.
We enjoy having visitors in our
midst and insist upon the patrons OF
the school to call around as often as
they can, and see how our school is
progressing.
DIR. W. H. Sears came up and Wis
tied our school Monday afternoon,
and made an eloquent talk on the
preparation for life and we as pupils
enjoyed it very much.

BANKERS 10 COMMANDMENTS

Thou shalt not advertise an untruth
to the people.
Thou shalt advertise without break
In the newspapers, for thy home peo-
pie will thus learn to read thy copy
regularly, and the results therefrom
viii repay thy efforts and bring the
people to thy place of habitation, and
thee and thy patrons will derive mu-
tual profit from advertising.
Thou shalt employ a part of thy
time in giving careful thought to adj
yertising so thy people shall not grope
in ignorance.
Thou shalt not let copy, grow stale,
as the people want fresh news in ads.
as well as in the local columns.
Thou shalt not ask the people to
have confidence in thine institution
without giving them proper informa-
ton, for suspicion grows from the lack
Of information. The ignorant withdraw
their funds without reason; this has
| its effects on others.
Thou shalt do whatever Ieth In thy
power to promote thrift and encour-
age enterprise among thine own town
people.
Thou shalt beware of advertising
that brings no returns; this eats into
expense and leads to the destruction
Of thy faith.
Thou shalt spend thy advertising ap-
preparation wisely, that thou mayest
receive the benefit and educate thy
people and set an example for those
who come after thee.
Thou shalt not bear false. witness
against the institution wherein thou
worketh, bat speak well of it to all
men.
Thou shalt keep these command
nents as a rule and guide for those
who come after thee, even to the
third and fourtn generation.-The
Bank Advertiser.

any sacrifice you may have to make.
With all our heart we believe that Il
proper understanding Of the term

The Mystery in Advertising.

1t is commonly thought that adver-
Using is a mysterious thing that
makes some people rich and some
poor, whereas, in my opinion, the
term advertising was merely coined
to conveniently differentiate the writ
ten from the spoken word
1t is, therefore, purely and simply
craftsmanship, and no man has yet
risen to ask the why and wherefore
of vending merchandise.-H. T. Nor
gan in Springfield GILL; News.

Before a representative body of
business men at New Orleans recent
". Gordon Swift, manager for R. G.
Dun & Co., in that city, remarked:
"a merchant is rated largely upon
the amount of judicious advertising he
does" Giving as his reason for this

business who doesn't keep the public
well informed as to what he has to

DAILY DIET HINTS
- BY DR.. r. J. ALLEN ANN, :
Food Specialist.
VEGETARIAN ERRORS.

&The vegetarian who wears a
hoIier-than-thou expression be-
cause he eats no meat would do
well to consider whether his
dietary is necessarily superior
to that of the man who eats
meat, but fewer incongruous
mixtures. The attempt to prove
that cancer is due to meat-eat-
ing has failed as significantly as
that to show that tomatoes or
other vegetables are the cause
of this dread disease. An ex-
tremeIy complex diet may be
worse than one consisting large
Iy of meat. The average vege-
tartan tries to make up for the
omission of meat-which many
regard as in itself a virtue-by
eating superfIuous quantities of
eggs, milk, nuts and great
variety of vegetables. The ex-
elusive meat cure known as
"the Salisbury treatment" has
worked wonders In many cases,
and is still practiced in this
country and in England, not by
virtue OF flesh, but by virtue of
simplicity. cannibaIs are i'm
mune to cancer and consump'
ton, as the Greenlander Is, not
because they live on meat, but
because they live on a simple
diet.

Greene Co. S. S. Convention Organized.

Rev. Fred D. Long, the Sunday
School Lecturer and organizer for
the International Sunday-SchOol
movement, met his appointments at
LeakesvilIe Saturday night, and
Sunday and proved ito be quite a
pleasing as we'll as Instructive and
stimulating fellow in that work. He
succeeded in organizing a Greene
County Sunday-School Convention,
(interdenominationaD with J. E. Mil
Ter, Prest.. and Oscar Backstrom,
Secty. We assume this is only the
beginning of a concerted Sunday
S ;hool activity In our county among
the 9veral church organizations.
The lecture by DR.. W. H, Sears,
at the School house last Monday
night, who is the second on the Al
kahest Lyceum Course, was quite an
enjoyable one. DIR. Sears is Pres
byterean preacher, and possesses
that happy faculty of pulling the
smile out of you whether you agree
with him or not. His lecture was
chaste and ripping with humor, and
surcharged vita occasional flashes Of
homespun philosophy cleverly touch
ed off at the right time to make a
good impression. His lecture IN
questionably impaired something,
while that of his predecessor is de-
batable, though she certainly rem
dered her parts pretty near without
flaw. Sears breaches the Gospel of
Laugh and is an adept at the game
1t takes the crusts which the hard
rub of life form on us off to spend an
occasional evening with such a dis
pc lser of good cheer.

But June is full of invitations sweet,
Forth from the chimney's yawn, and
thrice-read tones
To leisurely delights and saunterine
thoughts
That brook no ceiling, narrower than
the blue The bee,
All dusty as a miller, takes his toll
Of powdery gold and grumbles,
What a day
To sun me and do nothingr' Nay,
think
Merely to bask and ripen is some
times
The students wiser business; the
brain
Will not distil the juices it has
sucked
To the sweet substance of pellucid
thought,
Except for him who hath the secret
learned
To mix his blood with sunshine and
to take
The wind into his pulses.
In June 'tis good to lie beneath q
tree
While the blithe season comforts
every sense,
Sleeps all the brain in rest and heals
the heart,
Brimming it o'er with sweetness
unawares.

Eighty Years.

Sunday June 19, 1910 Judge
James w. Bell rounded out eighty
years, long and useful life.
In its honor he held a family re =

miniscences and pleasantly spent.
The brothers and sisters present
ed the Judge with a large easy
leather upholstered rocker
Big Time
And a big dinner at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Adams, Sun
day.
Forty-four make a large sized
dinner party but that kind of thing
places Mr.. and Mrs. Adams in their

Werner, and family, of Hannibal,
William Reichoff and family, of In
dian Creek, C. L. Drescher and fam
lily, Peter Casper and family, Mat
