The Time to Stop Your
Ad Is the Day Your
Property is Sold

If every one who had property to
sell followed the plan of advertising it
continuously and persistently UNTIL
1T IS SOLD, no one would ever feel
property poor And, while occasion
ally an ad might have to be repeated a
score or more of times, the cost of it
would be but trihing compared to the
advantage of finding the buyer to whom
that particular property WOULD BE
A BARGAIN at the price asked
All property in or near this city
IS SALABLE. Thus the RULE OF
ADVERTISING YOUR PROPERTY
UNTIL IT IS SOLD is safe and pru-
dent one. OF course, the best time to
BEGIN is NOW-and, as suggested,
the ONLY time to stop is when your
sale is made!

A Misguided swindler

An enterprising swindler in
England has recently been ar
rested for selling dried peas as
"Little Liver Pills" They
were sold on the assurance
that they were excellent medi-
cine" OF course, dried peas
are not an .excellent medicine"
neither will they cure oliver
trouble" but the same may be
said Of the many oliver pills"
which contain drugs and are
sold under claims even more
fraudulent. The British swim
dler should have been better
informed, says The Journal of
the American Medical Associa-
ton. When he desires to sell
"llver pills ne should put
SO ne drugs in them poisonous
or otherwise, the kind doesn't
matter. Then he can lie about
his product to his hearts con-
tent and he will be immune
from arrest. In fact, if he can
sell enough of them he may
look forward to a peerage. In
Great Britain, as in the United
it is not the mere act of
swindling, but the method,
that proves dangerous.

John B. Ratio.

John B. Ratio, famous throughout
the entertainment world, as a charac-
terist, brings to the platform the ex-
perience of more than dozen years
as "headliner
Ratios entertainment is so popular
that he has the distinction of having
a total of 275 dates booked for the
season Of l9l1-12. And for this there
is a reason. and the reason is that
Ratios entertainment is different. "
Mr.. Ratio, by the skilful use OF
theatrical grease paints wigs etc.
"makes up" his characters in full
view of the audience. In the course
of one evening he presents from
twelve to eighteen characters. So
perfect is the illusion that people
imagine that he is assisted by con-
fedeTates.
But this is only one phase of
Ratios art. He is an actor. a
drama tic interpreter of the first order
With every character makeup he
presents a scene or an appropriate
reading and all with such prefeot art
that the audience moves from laugh
ter to tears, from tragedy to comedy.
He will be in Heppner April p.
