If you are skeptcal about adver-
tising, ask any member of the Board
of Trade or the merchants of the
town and they will soon convince
you that it pays and pays big divid-
ends. AS an evidence of the result
of advertising the Board of Trade
wishes to announce that money thus
expended is spent wisely. The
Board can talk from experience. A
few weeks ago the Erie summer
timetable was inserted in Homes
dale's three newspapers so that pa
irons living along the Scranton
branch would be benefited by trad
ing in Honesdale. They can also
leave their home on the first train,
come to Honesdale, do their shop
ping and return home the same day.
1t is now three weeks since the time
table went into effect. On Monday
mornings SOS Erie train 80 pas
sengers alighted from the cars. Be-
sides this, mail is received from
New York, Scranton and other
points, together with the morning
papers. Does it pay to advertise?

THE SOULS DEAR LAND

I know the Blessed Islands some where lie In rose-crowned splendor on a sap phire sea- I know the Age of Gold can never die:
 And far Hesperides has fruit for me. White towers of fair Atlantis pierce the blue, Her terraces and temples vine wreathed stand, Dream haunting music floats the glad hours through With lulling waves that lap she level strand. Cool groves of asphodeI where young nymphs play. Lush wales where Dian leads her laughing band, Dim paths of Already where lovers stray Have never faded from the souls dear land. The glory of Olympus needs no ruth; The fair gods live and love, and never passed. All beauty that the soul has known is truth. Immortal truth, more true than life at last.
 Alice E. Ives. in Harper's Weekly.

look well for yelling some of the bril- liant colors. Malines are used again for draping and a'so for making some of, the smaller shapes
 Ostrich and paradise novelties are particularly elaborate and beautiful, the new colors blending well for com binations.
 The nature of many of the shapes will give opportunity for the use of elaborate hatpins.
 Straw Braids.
 There is large variety of straw ga- looms and straw braids of both bright and dull finish. Boucle loops of glos- sy straw give an effective look. The braids are made in plain as well as nacre cOlors; also in combinations of leading shades. Rough and smooth, and Ramie looks well in new color schemes. Some of the braids are round, but the flat weaves prevail.
 The Colors of the Spring Season.
 As to coIors the new shade cards arc well made use of. If there is any one in particular that stands out 1t is primrose, because this color is used In combination so frequently. Black and white, black and old gold, old gold and corbeau blue, gray and Delft blue, black and burnt orange-alI look good.
 A question that arises in the trade is whether hats are really to be trim med or whether we are to have an- other Season of plain styles. If the tendency in Paris is to guide us at aI.. we shall have decidedly more trimmed has been a luxury in trimming such as the present generation of buyers has never before witnessed.-The Millinery Trade Review.

AUTO FOR RELIEF
 COMMITTEE

Ever alive to it's duties as an organ ization, a certain fraternal order in Los Angeles has found a new use for the automobile.
 Several months ago when there ap- peared a special need for charitable work among it's members the Loyal Order of Moose of that city establish ed what is known as its Relief Com mittee. Immediately the wisdom of the move became apparent and since it's formation the work of the com mittee has been most effective.
 Handicapped, however, because of the lack of facilities for calling on the members in need and distributing SUD- plies, the officers of the lodge hit upon the idea of purchasing an automobile So apparent was the need of the Re lief Committee that the idea of buy ing a car for it's use met with hearty approval and the progressive members of the lodge voted to purchase tour ing car. Now the Relief Committee has the automobiles Regal.
 Our membership writes W. 4. AL derson of Los Angeles, Dictator of the lodge, ''is over T,5oO and so large that it IS impossible for the Relief Commit tee to do it's duty without the aid of the automobile. The new Regal s being used to great advantage every day and by its use the Loyal Order of Moose has jumped into the front ranks in it's work for charity We have found the automobile an effectiN @ factor for the success of the Relief Committee and can strongly recom- mend that other organizations buy q moter car for a similar purpose"

HOME HEALTH CLUB
By DR. DAVID H. REEDER, La Porte Indiana

EVERYDAY DANGERS-The Home Health Club is the enemy of fear; it constantly advises al who may pos sibIy be brought under it's influence, in the slightest degree, to be brave. But there is difference between bravery and carelessness, and there IS one kind of fear that is much to ne commanded Always fear to do wrong. Never fear to do rish ht. Care sessness is wrong, whether 1t be care iessness of yourself or others. You would consider it criminal in one who tad a conta gious and dangerous dis ease to, go into a public place and thereby spread the contagion. When by care essness, you contract a diseasa, you not only endanger yourself, but your friends with whom you are brought in personal contact. At any rate you place yourself in a condition to become a trial and a burden 10 them in taking care of you during Nour illness Ordinarily this care Is labor of love, when it must be given, but it is highly reprehenslple and use egs to cause your friends such work, anxiety. and sometimes expense when it can be avoided
 It is not with any disposition to be- come alarrnists that we speak of everyday dangers. but to call atten- +ton to the heedless-even fooish-in- .:urrence of danger to your own health and that of others.

The very thought is sicken- ing: isn't it Q It is almost sickenfng to ask the question. But those who look after the health of others have to do and say great many unpleas- ant things.
 Well, just remember that every lime you take drink from any pub lie drinking cup or other vessel of the kind, that some such person may have drank from it, the minute be- fore you did, and sleft upon its edge where y-ou may gst them, the microbes of some awful disease.
