are all the more liable to error in this
respect. They have a special gift Of
speech and another special gift of OPP
portunity to use this speech, and so, ex-
erting a wide influence, their RESPONSE
btiity evidently is proportionate.
1t Is not for us to Judge ministers or
others; there Is One that judgeth: the
Lord. We greatly fear, however, that
many ministers, as we'll as Christians
In humber stations, fail to fully appre-
ciate their responsibilities for every
word they utter or have the opportu-
nifty of uttering. Many tell us that for
years they preached what they did not
believe. How terrible! How stulttfy-
ing to their manhood! How serious a
reflection upon their brand of Chris
hanity!
A Little Match Starts Big Fire.
Saint James gives some forceful H.
lustrations. Christians should put a
bride of restraint into their own
mouths even as they put them into
the mouths of their horses.
Not all Of us have such wide OPP
portunities for good or evil, but in our
homes, In our offices, shops, markets,
we may send forth either good or evil
influences, far reaching for either hap
piness or misery, either upbuihtng or
down tearing character. either Of help

no Christian could be Indifferent TO this
his most powerful mSmb0r. Saint
James suggests that as a match will
kindle great fire 80 the tongue might
start great Juror, a great eommotion,
and DO much injury. He suggests
boasting as being one Of the most
dangerous uses OF the tongue. Our ex-
perienee corroborates this. Boosting
often leads US into error and fastens
Ms there because we are not humble
enough to acknowledge the fault 1t
often leads into untruth from which
we may have difficulty in escaping. 1t
Is an evidence of pride and therefore
UNI hristlike, improper. Angry words,
bitter words, sarcastic words, haunting
words, may set ablaze the course o.
a whole life and impel 1t with angry
force toward the Second Death, Gehen-
ma. Hence Saint James suggests that
such evil breeding words are like

CATS MUST WEAR COLLARS.

Not long ago Munich decided to
impose a tax on cats and now the
Swiss capital of Berne is thinking
of doing the same thing. "Far too
many pussiesY y is the cry; and it is
high time that every cat, as in Mu-
Mich, should wear a collar, showing
TO whom she belongs, or be taken up
as having no visible means of sub
sistence, as a rogue and vagabond,
and put out of existence. 1t is COM
planned that in Berne and the sur
rounding district there is an alto
gether immoderate number of oats,
and that they wage incessant war on
the none too numerous wild singing
birds, which are much pizsd in
Switzerland.

ADVERTISING.

All modern business successes
are built on advertising. The diff
ference between Marshall Field
and the other men who began to
keep store in Chicago at the same
time he did is that he was an ad-
vertiser and they never discovered
t, possibilities.
We are net Chicago, but we
have goods to sell in Mt. Sterling
and there are people here who
would buy.
The disposition of the ordinary
merchant is to treat advertising as
an expense made necessary by his
rivals indulgence in it. Such men
have never discovered the outer
edge of the advertising world, and
will go down to forgotten graves.
1t is such men who will neglect
to advertise when the coast is clear,
and either raise sand with the pa
pers or make foolish advertising
spurts, whenever a stranger comes
in and sells a great lot of stuff on
his advertising ability alone.
The merchants of this town are
facing the possibilities of city in
the near future. Advertising is
what has built up our town. The
growth of the town means much to
every merchant in it.
The local man often thinks that
advertising does not pay; perhaps
it does not pay him-as he does
it-but for every home man who
refuses to advertise, a paper could
always, if it were not so patriotic,
secure enough foreign advertising
in that one line to pay ten times
over, and at city rates, too.
If you have anything to sell and
want business you have got to let
the people know it, and tell it to
them strong, or give up the job to

Speaks of County Results.

Senator Fred Tucker, when asked
about the relative strength of the
socialist, republican and democratic
parties of the county, said that he
did not see where the socialists had
gained very much strength and that
on the whole the republicans had
losC in almost every precinct. That
10 precincts out of the 40 showed
thai the democrats had polled twice
as many votes as the republicans
and socialists combined.
His estimate Of the votes of the
county showed as follows: Social
lists 59S, republicans IA, democrats
zoos, and showing a grand total OF
3,437 votes polled, which represents
between so per cent and So per cent
of the voting strength of the county
When asked If he thought the So
cialist opponent OF Kirkpatrick for
county commissioner had defeated
him, he said that he thought there
was no foundation for the report
other than that two precincts in
Kirkpatrick's commissioners dis
trict, which were heretofore demo
cratic, had gone socialist

Joseph B. Healing TO take charge
of his campaign in the middle west.
This information has just been al
lowed to escape from White House
sources.--Valparaiso Vidette.
If the above newspaper dispatch,
which has gained considerable cur
rency, is true, President Taft can rest
assured that he will lose the state of
Indiana just as sure as the winter sun
shines.
If Joe Healing, who for the past
four years has been a blight on the
republican party in Indiana and who
today hangs around it's neck like a
milestone is permitted to be the tail
to the Taft kite, the party is in sorry
shape
If W. II. Taft depends upon the old
guard in Indiana to give him the
states electoral vote, let him tie up
with Joe Healing.
AS we understand it, however, there
are a few hundred thousand republic
an voters in Indiana whom the presi.
dent needs to depend upon for these
electoral votes.

What the city really needs is a
prospectus that is edited by members
of the commercial club and is issued
with the best interests of the city in
city and with the individual inter-
ests of the people who advertise Sec
ondary.
Such a prospectus would not be
filled with verbose descriptions, which
a business man who valued his time
would never read. but would be filled
with statistics and cold facts about the
city and the region, which would give
a comprehensive idea of it's growth
and possibilities to the man who
wanted to get at the facts in hurry.
No outsider is capable of getting up
a prospectus that would do the city
any good. The man on the ground is
the man who has made a real study of
conditions here. who has watched the
growth of the city for years and is able
to anticipate it's future, is the man
who ought to get up Hammond's next
prospectus.
The business men of Hammond will
find that they get very little benefit
from advertising in a prospectus of
| this kind and that the same money
spent in the newspapers, which
reaches the people in this locality, will
get results that will be much more in
evidence than money that is thrown
away on a prospectus.

and before long the democrats will
be going to the bat.
These things recall the last two
campaigns that Gary went through
and it is no wonder that many people
shudder. The hope that aGry is not
to have another reign of terror is
universal. Blood was shed and men
were killed in the 1909 and 1910 cleo
lions and riots and brawIs were ram
pant. Some people nearly went to
Michigan City for them and if the
sinister violences OF past elections are
repeated surely somebody ought to
go there.
