Winning an Office Trade.

L rom BUSINESS.
With the opening of new business
block in one of the largest cities in the
middle west also came the inevitable
cigar stand inside the building. Trade.
however came very slowly the first few
weeks In the rush of moving the busi-
ness men gave very little attention to the
new cigar stand. 1t was not long before
the proprietor of the stand began to ieel
uneasy and set about devislng some
scheme for stimulating trade. one morn
ing about four weeks after the building
had been open every man in the +DuiidihS
received a visit from the cigar stand pro-
prietor who carried around with nm
several boxes OF cigars and a grip fun or
cigarettes Every smoker was made
present of his favoritc smoke. With ms
entrance into an office the enterprislng
dealer introduced himself, asked each
man to have a smoke and politely init
mated that he would be glad to cater to
them in future. His outlay Tor the Tree
smokes amounted to over So, but II pald
in returns q thousand per cent. Practl-
calIy every smoker in the building IS now
a firm patron of his stand. not merely De-
cause of the free gift. but because as
business men they recognize smart
piece of enterprise.

The recall of thc judiciary by means of tie post card hss developed into a fad in Bisbee.

 This Year

If 1t is true that nothing is impOS- sible, it is possible that Mrs. <. l.. Duncan, Of Bisbce. will be one of Cochise Couniy's representatives in the state legislature; that Anna Sut ton, Of Bisbee, will be clerk Of the new superior court of the state Of Arizona, and that Mary L. Miller will be county attorney Of Cochise cOuu- ty. They are the candidates of IGg socialist party fer those positions.

 It's use has TeEsoyed fear that long existed in the minds of librarians that the rare old manuscripts vsGId dry up and return 10 their original ele- meuts.
