Get Trade by Advertising,

The best way in which the merchants
in the towns and smaller cities can
fight the mail order houses is to adver-
tise. They know most Of their patrons
personally, can show them the goods
before they buy them. have many 9th
er advantages over the mail order
house and in almost every instance can
sell just as cheap, If not cheaper, re-
marks the Buckeye CO.. Informer.
If the home merchant lacks foresight
and is too penurious to properly adver-
tise his goods, why should the publish
er. exert himself to keep the trade at
home for him? If solicitations on the
part OF the publisher fail to educate
the merchant to the fact that he must
advertise II he wants to keep up with
the procession. then nothing is left to
the merchant but to learn in the school
Of experience. and IL the teachings Of
that renowned school are of no effect
on him then there is no place for him,
and eventually his place in the COM
mercial world will be taken up by
some more enterprising competitor.

Most old people must give to the bowels
some regular help, else they suffer from
constipation. The condition is perfectly
natural. 1t Is Just as natural as it is for
old people TO walk slowly. For age is
never so active as youth. The muscles
are less elastic, And the bowels are
muscles.
SO all old people need Cascarcts. One
might as well refuse to aid weak eyes with
weak bowels The bowels must be kept
active This is important at all ages, but
never 50 much as at fifty.
Age is not a lime Tor harsh physics.
outh may occasionally whip the bowels
INTO activity. But a lash can't be used

need Is 4 gentle and natural tonic. One
shat can be constantly used without
harm. The only such tonic is Cascarcts,
and they cost only 10 cents per box at
