ADVERTISING TALKS.
Copyright 1912 by
k4!es!!='@ e.: g: !, =:

ADVERTISING is placing informa-
tion regarding that which we have to
sell, before possible purchasers, in
such manner as to arouse desire for
the thing advertised.
THAT WHICH WE HAVE TO
SELL may be an article from our
store, a product of our factory, a con-
ception of our brain, or our services.
AROUSING DESIRE may be effec-
ted by many methods. The most
profitable, is NEWSPAPER ADVER-
TISING.
THAT THE NEWSPAPER is the
most efficient media, is proven by the
fact that EVERY large, National Ad
vertiser, uses it under the most trying
conditions.
IN CITIES, COUNTIES, EVEN
STATES, where competition is espec-
Tally aggressive, where the "trade"
has lost interest in a product, or
where climatic, labor or other condi-
tions are not favorable, THE NEWS
PAPER is called upon to stimulate
sales.
/ THE ADVANTAGES of Newspa-
| per Advertising may be attained as
FULLY by the Druggist, the Grocer,
the Coal Dealer, the Lumber Man, the
Contractor or the General Merchant,
as by any of the great retail enterpri-
ses which NEWSPAPER Advertising
has made famous.
THIS FACT applies to the SMALL
as well as the LARGE merchant.
JOHN WANAMAKER, who is
probably the most successful retail
merchant in the world, has not failed
to have at least one FULL PAGE adj
vertisement IN New York and Phila-
delphia Newspapers EVERY DAY,
for more than TEN YEARS.
Mr.. WANAMAKER attributes his
success, very largely, to the fact that
he has ALWAYS been a LIBERAL
USER OF NEWSPAPER SPACE.
YOU CANNOT monopolize oil, Gre
ate great steel industries, build rail-
ways or consolidate steel and railway
interests as did Mr.. Rockefeller, Mr..
Carnegie, Mr.. Gould, Mr.. Hartman
or Mr.. Morgan.
THOSE OPPORTUNITIES are of
the past.
YOU CAN, however, become the
GREAT merchant Of YOUR CITY in
the same manner that Mr.. Wanamak-
er, Mr.. Marshall Field, and hundreds
of others, became the Great Merch-
ants of their respective cities.
THERE is POINTED OUT THE
ROAD TO BIG SUCCESS.
FOR THE RETAIL, MERCHANT
there is NO method of Business Bull
ding which can ANYWHERE NEAR
EQUAL the local NEWSPAPER in
results.

at your service.

HANDICAPPED
This is the Case With Many Pleasant.
vile People.

Too many Pleasantville citizens are
handicapped with bad backs. The un-
ceasing pain causes constant misery,
making work a burden and STOPPING

aches at night, preventing refreshing
rest and in the morning is stiff and
lame. Plasters and liniments may
give relief but cannot reach the cause.
To eliminate the pains and aches you
must cure the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for sick
kidneys.
The following statement should con-
vince every Pleasantville reader OF
their efficiency.
William Saunders, Tilton St., Ham

lFRENcHMEn THOUGHT IT JOKE
Ambassador Jusserand's Request for
an Outdoor Sleeping Porch Not
Taken Seriously at Home.

The French government has obtain
ed a permit. blueprints and full speci-
fications for fine new embassy build
ing here in Washington. AS French
architects rank among the best in the
world, the building will probably be
an attractive structure, with hard
wood floors, modern plumbing. glass
doorknobs and decorated to suit.
But ]. j. Jusserand, the French am
bassador, isn't certain whether the
place is going to be anything much
or not. In some respects the houses
that are shown in the daily papers suit
him much better, and he has made
bold to tell the French government
so.
Inasmuch as Jusserand Is going to
live in the place, his government as
sumed, quite logically, that he and his
wife would have some little curiosity
to see the plans and note the loca-
tions of closets and bathrooms So
they sent him blueprints showing the
front, side and rear elevations and the
! interior arrangements.
Jusserand promptly wrote back to
his government saying he wished,
while they were about it, that they
would build house with few of the
more modern conveniences. For ex-
ample, he pointed out no American
thinks of building a house nowadays
without an outdoor sleeping porch and
also a cute little screened porch
where they could serve afternoon tea.
Jusserand's letter caused much con-
sternation in his native land. The
French officials couldn't figure out
why a few years residence in Amer
lea should give high born citizen so
many barbarous notions about archi-
lecture. After several weeks they an
swered his sleeping porch communica-
tion and told him they enjoyed his lit
tie joke.
"Of course, you cannot be serious =
they said, ,"in wishing to sleep public
ly. The outdoor porch might be very
nice for an American hunting cabin
with its picturesque log finish, but for
an embassy building located in the
heart of a city, any arrangement for
one to sleep out on the porch would
no doubt excite much funny comment.
Furthermore, we do not know Of any
recognized school of architecture that
provides for special porch to sleep
on
Jusserand threw up his hands with
despairing gesture on receipt of the
letter, asked for one more window in
the front bedroom. and let 1t go at
that.

SEEKS ~AT COST" STORES
Of Chain of Stores for
Federal Employees.

Government-owned epartm n I
stores in Washington to sell staple
commodities at cost to Uncle Sans
army of employesl
That Is the latest reform that Rep
resentative Berger of Wisconsin, the
Socialist member of the house. has un-
dertaken to accomplish. He intro
duced a bill the other day appropri-
ating $1,000,000 for the establishment
of a chain of stores to be organized
and operated along the lines of the
commissary stores in the canal strip
on the Isthmus of Panama.
The Berger measure asks that the
secretary of the interior, at the ear
,liest practicable time, establish in the
city of Washington, at suitable places,
stores for the sale, at cost price, of
staple commodities to all employees Of
the federal government.
A clause In Berger's bill provides
for the extension of facilities already
at hand until such time as the chain
of stores is completed. This clause
reads:
That the privilege of purchasing, at
cost price, commodities from the de-
partment stores at Washington bar
racks. D. c.. and at navy yard station.
D. c., now restricted to officers and
enlisted men Of the army and navy, be
and the same is hereby extended to
all employees of the federal govern

HONEST ADVERTISING
WINS IN LONG RUN
BY VIM. c. FREEMAN.

kev. DR.. Reisner of Grace M-tho-
list Episcopal church, New York. re-
Gently sent a letter to a number OF
business men asking them some ques-
tions, based on the alleged statement
of Rev. R. j. Campbell of London, that
business man cannot be absolutely
honest and succeed.
A great many honorable men, so
DR.. Reisner says, claim that an abso-
lutely upright Standard of honesty is
impossible for the man who is deter
mined to succeed in business.
The following are the questions
that he asked of the merchants:
1. Is it possible to succeed in busi-
ness and be absolutely honest?
g. Why do dishonest men fail to
reach fullest success?
g. Why do so many statesmen re-
sort to sharp practices to make sales?
A. Is it ever excusable to misrep-
resent or exaggerate goods either In
quality or popularity of demand?
Here are four very good answers to
those questions sent to DR.. Reisner
by Mr.. Murphy, president of the Mark
Cross company:
l. Yes-and if done any other way
the man does not get the full measure
of success.
g. Because the most difficult thing
in the world is to lie dishonesty for
any length of time.
8. Sharp practice is their tragedy
that is why there are SO many bad
statesmen
4. There is no excuse for such a
blunder. Retribution follows hard on
the heels Of Misrepresentation. Ad-
vertising may be fraudulent or it NAV
be profitable, but it cannot be both.
There is no fool SO great as the fool
who thinks he is fooling everybody.
First he labors hard to gain dis
honest reputation, and afterward he
labors to undo it. Like Frankenstein.
who released the genii from the bottle
only to find he could not control him.
Another paper was read at the Sun
day night service, December 8, which
made the point that the man who
practices dishonesty in his business
has to be a great deal smarter man
than the man who practices honesty
that he has greater difficulty in at
tanning partial success than the man
who Is inherently honest has in at
tanning great success.
Is it not true that the businesses
that prosper most In our communities
are those whose owners are men Of
character who stand for something in
the world?
There is no doubt that honesty in
business pays best in the long run.
and the honest adertiser has better
chance to succeed than the dishonest
advertiser.

KIMBERLY STARTSPICTURFF FUND
Kimberly Schools Give a Clever En-.

Inc entertainment given by the KIM
perry schools on the evening of March
lst. was one of the best the writer has
ever had the pleasure of witnessing.
lhe OBJECT was to raise money with
winch to obtain pictures to place in
the school rooms, and in spite of the
weather the epople of the community
showed their appreciation of such
commendable idea by the wav thew
turned out, as the immense auditorium
on the third floord of the school build
ing was packed to overflowing. only
standing room being available for the
late arrivals. The crowd in all proba-
Dllity was the largst ever congregated
in the building.
Inc exercises were of the very best
selections, and the manner in which
the pupils disposd of their duties and
the enthusiasm shown in every move
could not help but shrow the spirit
OF harmony and goodfellowship which
exists among the teachers and the
pupils.
All grades from the primary to the
nigh school took part, and it is neces-
sarp for one to be an eye witness in
order to realize the talent that is being
developed in the growing generation,
When it comes to choosing the fea-
ture OF the evening, more cannot be
said OF one act than another. as be-
ginning with the first number "The
Boy Blacksmiths" by the first grade,
every one was a feature, each one in
It's turn taking the audience by storm,
and developed themselves into one
grand feature, being as above stated,
the spirit of harmony and goodfellow-
ship between the teachers and pupils.
In fact too much cannot be said of
the good work that is being done in
the schools.

ERA OF GOOD FEELING.
Odd Fellows and RebekahS Have
Splendid Time.

On the evening of February goth
the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs of Twin
Falls had social gathering in the
X. Z. Hall. After a short session of
the subordinate lodge the doors were
thrown open and the devotes of the
triple links began to assemble. Over
100 were present on this occasion
Bound together by the ties of friend
ship, love and truth, it was goodly
array of brothers and sisters. The
sordid cares of life were pushed to
one side and good fellowship reigned
supreme. Several brothers and sis
ters came down from Kimberly and
were heartily welcomed. Twin Falls
Odd Fellows are setting their mark
high and following the advice of EN-
erson hitching their wagon to star
Brother G. E. Evans was the orator
of the evening and spoke on the mis-
takes of life. His remarks were a
rare blending of w.t. sense and pathos
Josh Billings once said, Il do not
blame man for stumbling and falling,
what | blame him for is lying there
and srunting. Let him get up and
try to retrieve his mistake" 1t was
mainly along these lines that the talk
was made and it elected hearty ap-
plause
After the speech was brought to
close, the Rebekahs, not forgetting
the proverbial saying about the way
to mans heart, prepared the ban
quet 1t was a typical Twin Falls
banquet and it was evident that the
Rebekahs are experts in the matter
and manner of serving one. There
was only one fault to be found with
1t and that was that it was so good
that it required a supreme effort to
withstand the temptation to eat too
much.
After the banquet those who cared to
dance took possession of the floor and
tripped the light fantastic to the in
spring music of the violin and piano
which was rendered by Brother and
Sister l.. F. Roberts. The music was
the old fashioned kind that sets your
feet to tingling in spite of you and
calls for an unconditional surrender
to the joys of the dance
The social gathering was a grand
success and we hope to see many more
OF them. Come again ye Brothers and
Sisters and bind us round about with
the golden chains of friendship, love
and truth.

CREAM FROM HAGFRMAN.
Twin Falls Co. Makes Arrangements
for Cream from That Valley.

Mr.. P. G. Ross, of Twin Falls, repre-
senting the Sterling Dairy Products
company. was in town yesterday. Mr..
Ross was looking over the valley with
view to putting in a cream gathering
station here, but on account of the
lack OF shipping facilities, it was de-
cided that it would not be practicable
to establish station here at this time.
Arrangements were made, however, to
have a team come over from Wendell
twice week and gather the cream and
take it to that place, where a station
will be established. Mr.. Ross reports
that farmers in this section took very
kindly to the proposition of selling
their cream in the manner outlined
and there will no doubt be good trade
worked up here. He stated that he
found conditions in the Hagerman VAL
ley ideal for the dairy business, as
with the pure, clear water, the protec-
ton afforded by the hills on either
side of the valley and the natural blue
grass pastures, no better place could
be found in which to conduct a dairy
business.
