How q New Hampshire Lad Resented
Epithet of Coward"
Great IL Advertlsingl

How q New Hampshire Lad Resented
Epithet Of Coward"
A Washington newspaper man, one
Of the few survivors of the Fifty-ninth
Massachusetts, regiment, recently told
this story:
"A young New Hampshire lad of
sixteen, Sumner Elliott. was men,
ber of Company I, my company. In
some way companion had been mov-
ed to call him a coward at Spottsyl-
vania. The eplthet was undeserved,
for Elliott was brave boy. He
thrashed the man who called him a
coward, but the insult ranked. On
the march to North Apna river he
brooded over 1t. We led the corps
across the river and advanced on the
enemy. A rattling musketry fire was
dotting the ground with our dead and
wounded.
Presently young Elliott sprang
ahead OF the advancing line, and as
he waved his musket over his head
he shouted out in broad New England
accent:
Sergeant Mertin, am cowardY
The enemy opened masked bat
terry full on our front and under a
thousand yards from their line. The
guns were loaded to the muzzles with
grape and canister, and as the sward
we were tripping over was perfectly
level great gaps were made In our
ranks Nevertheless we rushed on,
cheering. Sumner well in the lead.
Presently he went down, full length,
and as we swept over him the gallant
lad was still family shouting:
Sergeant Mertin, am / COW
a-r-dT
His kneecap had been broken with
a grapeshot, and when subsequently
removed to the field hospital our first
sergeant, John ii. Mertin, managed to
visit him. AS the poor boy, laid out
on the rude operating table, grasped
the sergeants hand he family NUT
tered. Sergeant M-e-r-t-i-n, am a
c-o-w-a-r-dr
"The sergeant pressed his hand and
replied with tears In his eyes, No.

er raised coward"

as in this same U. s. A.
What brought this condition about?
The public schools, Yes, in part.
But even more to newspapers and
magazines, of which $4,000 are pub.
lished in this country.
What makes the issue Of these
publications possible? The answer
is, Advertising. Without advertising
the great majority of newspapers and
magazines would go out of business
entirely; the remainder would be
forced to eliminate their most expen-
sive and, therefore, most valuable
features. Some one has said that the
advertiser has endowed literature
and art in America. Whoever said
1t spoke wisely, for the statement is
true. The debt owed by America to
the advertiser is great one.
There are some other points OF in

advertising. In no other country of
the world can an article of genuine
worth be brought into universal use
30 rapidly as in the U. S. A. In no
other country is 1t possible for the
purchaser so easily to select the best
aud most suitable of the articles
which he is to purchase as here.
What makes this possible? The an.
swer is, Advertising.
When speaking OF the Cpuntry's
great products they used 10 sly that
cotton was king. LatterlJ corn has
worn the crown.
Some day some wise man with a
strong and healthy imagination will
compute the amount spent In these
$4,000 newspapers and periodicals, in
bill boards, street cars, barn painting,
novelties. catalogs, exhibitions OF all
kinds-and his figures will astound
the world.

Unsentimental.

A veteran of the civil war was asked
II he felt that interest In Memorial
day was dying. He answered the
question with a questions:
"You will die, won't you? Nothing
lasts forever. It's natural that this
change should come"
"Then you aren't indignant that
feeling OF Indifference should be man.
ifested by younger generation?"
The old soldier said
mo. why should be? don't
care fig. Talking about the war
won't make heroes. | dare say IL
there was an OCCASION for 1t the
young men OF today would make as
good record as they made forty
years ago. But you can't expect
young people today to feel about the
war the way we older fellows do.
They aren't close enough to It.
II know that's so, because when I
was a boy was just about as far
away from the war of 1912 as you
are from the civil war, and know
people didn't take any account Of 1t.
It's just as well, it seems to me. War
Is a bad remedy-necessary some-
times, but bad. all the same.
Naturally | don't like to see the
observance Of Memorial day becom-
ing more slack. 1t is an indication of
the advance of time-nothing more.
You can't say 1t shows deficient pa
iriotism, for it's simply human ma
'ure. and ! can't see that we're any
different from what we've ever been.
People aren't any more selfish than
they ever were. 1t seems to me that
they are just the same. The old SOL
diers have had good deal done for
them."-New York Evening Post.
