pid His Miie in 2.54.

The horse race against time at the Horseshoe Park Agricultural associa- .tions track Saturday afternoon drew a big crowd. Some time ago D. F. Murphy wagered Eli Blanchette that his 'strotter'' could not make two rings around the track in 3 minutes, half an, hour, or some such absurd time Eli evidently knew that he had, some horse and quickly took him up.
 The race was scheduled for Satur- day afternoon and after the horse had been put through his paces he turned the mile in 2 minutes and 54 seconds, but he would not run the way most race horses run-with his left side to the pole-but just the reverse-his right side to the pole. There are those who still aver that the horse cannot do the trick if he races in the reg ularly approved mode. Horse talk is now humming on all sides.

expensive to the merchant who does

all he did leave him. You don't have
to advertise. no, not a bit OF It: but
you are paying for the advertising
your competitors are doing. What
our forefathers did. or failed to Go.
cuts no ice with modern business and,
business methods. II you expect to
stay IN business and succeed you must
advertise. Just as sure as you do not,
one OF these days the sheriff and auc-
tioneer will be singing the requiem

have TO take our advice-you may ad-
veruse and succeed. or let It alone

The occasion OF Mr.. Martindale's

honor by the Lebanon board OF trade.
at the close OF which he addressed
tie members. who include the leading
business men Of that city. Mr. Mar
tindale advised the merchants pres
ent to advertise regularly in their
homo newspapers.
He said:
Make your advertisements truth
full and sincere. Get reputation for
honest advertising.
Don't expect patrons to rush into
your store In mob following one ad-
vertisement Patrons must be edu-
Gated to your methods OF advertising.
The tendency OF the times Is to have
one price and do nolest business. You
are behind the age II you do not ad-
vertise. don't see how any merchant
can do profitable business II he
doesn't advertise"

The Boy, the Pump, and tho Ad.
II does not pay to advertise, say
some merchants who have done little
OF 1t. and that without keeping It up.
The incident OF the boy and the pump
Illustrates the matter very well. The
boy was sent after a pail OF water.
He poured in the printing water. and
pumped out as much as he poured in.
Then he stopped TO rest. and the prim-
ing ran down. After some time OF al
ternate pumping and resting he con-
cluded it did not pay to pImp and quit
in disgust. The merchant who does
not believe in advertising does It like
the boy who did the pumping. He

GRANDFATHER TAFT AND TAFT

my father thought" said President Taft on setting
IN Tor his Bar Harbor vacation 'that two weeks
ensngh for vacation but wiser generation has found that
here is such thing exhaustng the capital of our
6ealth and constitution and that two three months is
lot too much.'
Maybe Mr. Taft father, in his time, right. Maybe
me worker could recuperate two weeks vacation, If
judicous about putting in the time
But Mr. Tafts fathers is also right in Opning that
ss generation has learned that there is such thing
0xhausting the capital of health and constitution.
Since Mr.. Taft IS fathers time the cities have become
crowded with men, women and children, much of
whose sole capital is health and constitution and the
Scrvation of said capital of pressing problems.
OF course all endorse Mr. Tafts generous estimate
u two three months for vacation God bless all who
grab off that much freedom from the grndstone But
the fact that very overwhelming majority of cannot
afford to cut off quarter sixth of the food producing
toll without certainty of having to contend, during the
ander of the year. with such disressu things hunger
nakedness and the pawnbroker.
Some CT of the big majority referred to- hopeless Of
two three months vacation trying by organiza
tion larger daily rest through the eight hour
movement endeavor to capital of health
and constitution in short periods of rest rather than i'll
lump
And cannot help observing somewhat coincdental
Mr. Taft that among your last official efforts prior to
your entering your two three months vacation
your successful killing off of proposition that be
exempted from the calendar of Sherman law criminals
when striking for little pecemea vacation which the
eight hour policy grants.
Grandfather Taft and his both right about
needing nice vacations, but their philosophy the point
of our getting such to need pumping up awfuly.
