on Six Saginaw Divisions.

SAGINAW, Mich, March 2.-Con-
tingent on the Pere Marquette secur-
ing an $S,000,O00 loan from ]. p. Nor.
gan Co, an Official announcement
was made here Wednesday that 81
100000 will be spent on six divisions
of the Saginaw district of the road
and that new warehouse to cost
$4,000, a 100 per cent increase in
trackage and double capacity Of the
round house will be maed here. The
local improvements will total 100000
and mean many more employees.
Forty miles on the Toledo division
will be double-tracked, mostly near
Plymouth, and new stations and
freight depots will be erected on the
Harbor Beach, Bad Axe, Ludington
and several other divisions besides
trackage improvements in the Port
Huron and Ludington local yards.
Supt. A. r. Merrick, Of this district,
made suggestions two months ago and
figures that the locomotives. passen-
ger coaches and freight cars BE --sa;s

sides that sum for improvements. An
other project is to establish At Port
Hope the terminal of the Harbor
Beach line, giving the first named city

ADVERTISING TALKS.
tContinued from PAGE oaso

women are just as much inter.
ested in advertising today as
they are in the news columns.
Why shouldn't they be?
Does not the advertisements
give readers information about
what THEY NEED in their
daily lives? Do they not tell
about everything under the sun
that anybody can use and that
anybody wants to use?
ADVERTISEMENTS MAKE
AN IMPRESSION ON THE
MINDS OF ALL READERS
even on the minds of big men
who are supposed to be so much
engrossed in big affairs that one
would not think they had time
to read advertisements.
The story is related about
either Gladstone or Kipling, |
have forgotten which, who ex-
pressed great indignation to q
friend because that friend
mailed him a copy of magazine
with the advertising section
cut out.
He said that HE FOUND
THE ADVERTISING PAGES
QUITE AS INTERESTING as
the letter press of the magazine.
That is one good thing about
the newspaper-the advertise
ments are so distributed
throughout the whole paper
that a copy of it cannot be sent
to a friend without sending all
of the advertisements.
That is why NEWSPAPER
ADVERTISING is so VALU-
ABLE. The advertisements are
always there and the newspaper
publisher is wise who looks upon
advertising as news and is as
careful about his advertising as
he is about his news.
