DOES IT PAY
To Advertise The Great Mail Order
Houses Using All the Space They
Can Get. Heart to Heart Appeal.

Advertising pays is the verdict
OF the Leading Commercial men to-
day. So impressed are they with
the truth of that verdict
that the sole business of creating
advertising material has become ON
of the great professions of the 20
Century. If it pays with the Large
business interests it pays with the
same proportionate expenditure wit
the smaller business interests. The,
successful business man of today
ls the man who lis consistently tell
ing the public what he has, and
giving them exactly what he saws
he has. 1t is of vital Importance
that the business man considers
his location, but he carefully buy
so as to supply the want and need
of the general public. Is it not,
just as vital that he shall persist
emily tell them that he can satisfy
their wants and needs.
AS Secretary of tha Commercial
Club have been brought into
close touch with this feature of our
business interests and l believe
one of the weak points I'M the Com
mercia1 life of our town is the fail
ure to persistently show the SPLEEN
did trading qualities of our town.

to let the public know of somel

Interests of this community expend-
ed what the Commercial world con-
s1ders a reasonable percent for
advertising that something like SIS
700 year would be used for this
purpose in our town. This does
not mean simply newspaper adver-
tlslng, but 1t does mean that the
business mem have foresight enough

Is open for advertising i'm the local
paper that would be liable to be-
used by some outside competitor.
When the local newspaper contains
advertising of Foreign competitors
don't kick the newspaper but kick
yourself for not having bought the
space. The machinery and running
expenses of a printing office can
not be rum lon simply "city pride
and when the local business inter-
ests fail to provide the necessary
"Wherewith" then it must come
from somewhere else.
1t is very easy for someone who
has not been brought i'm touch with
the local advertising to say what
should be done, and what should
not be done. One thing do
know and that is if we are ITO i'm

makes for the steady qualities that
characterized our people Of bygone
days. but 10 certainly step in cut
ting down the high cost OF living.
In this effort the rich man Is on
a par with his poor brother. For
with his wealth he has been able to
procure the best experts as advisers
and all seem to- prescribe the simple,
old fashioned, everyday foods as the
most desirable.
Reducing the cost of living is Just
plainly up to you and me.
Many a time We pity ourselves
when we think we must eat things
that do not cost as much. II We but
realized it we are rich indeed. The
Ills resulting from the less simple and
expensive foods are we'll known and
avoided by those who would be heal
thy, wealthy and wise.
Another means of economy Is that
designated by the president Of the
Housewives league, Mrs. Heath, who
commends "the woman with a dollar
in her pocket"
She who persists in telephoning the
butcher, baker and candlestick maker
for her purchases certainly pays fol-
that service nowadays in some way
o. other. But when she can be or
the spot and choose the produce, she
often finds bargains she had moi
known about and her dollar reaches
! further than she had expected.

The HIGH COST Of LIVING
OR COST OF HIGH LIVING?
BY Sophie Irene Loeb

The president of big corporation
sums up a comparison of present day
service with the simple demands OF
yesterday. as follows:
when we were boys our mothers
used to give us bowl Of mush and
milk for supper. and we were better
off for that plain but Wholesome diet.
There would be nc high cost Of living
to speak of II people would eat mush
and milk nowadays. But they don't
Yet can see no better men physical
ly or mentally now than we raised in
those bygone days.
Then the women went to the mar,
kets with their baskets on their arms.
They did not call up the grocer or
the butcher ON the telephone to de-
liver a five cent loaf OF bread or
soup bone. The grocer and butcher
must meet their expenses, People
AJAX TO be served and people must
pay fer itr
"Thrift has become almost an un-
known quality with average people.
They all want the best cuts Of beef
and the choicest vegetables and gro
ceries. Simple living will solve the
high cost Of living problem
All Of which commercial point of
view but agrees with that Of Horace
Fletcher in his new analysis OF
"Fletcherism. Mr.. Fletcher aims to
educate us in how to use the head
as well as the stomach in digestihg
food" thereby gaining health and
youth with the increase Of years.
The points Of these men who know
are we'll taken. Never before have
there been such a number OF food
experts. teachers Of domestic science.
books and pamphlets on nutrition and
food values, etc, as today. Never has
there seemed such a need for periods
Of fasting, going without lunches,
eliminating breakfast. and observing
all forms of proper living in the d.
| rection Of health.
And all seems to point back to the
simple things.
Why?
Because We have been lHing too
high. The average American goes
on the theory that the best is not
too good. He does not stop to re-
fleet that little of "the best" goes
a long way. AS we grew prosperous
the most simple foods were discarded
for the richly prepared victuals Nat
urally the cost of things scared sky

So 1t has now come to pass that Oh

get thin, another avoids rich foods

THE MELANCHOLY DAYS

The melancholy days have come
it's getting toward December; the
days we love to sit and dream be-
fore the glowing ember. We dig
about for heavy buds in closets dark
and dingy. and mourn, when now and
then we find h piece by moths made
fringy. Then buckwheat cakes and
sausage soon begin to shoot the
chutes; the katydids and iocusts have
put up their noisy flutes. The coal
men and the plumbers smile, their
seasons Just beginning; while Ice
men who have held sway 80 long have
eased up on their grinning. The hun
ters polish up their arms, and In an
ticipation, await the time to sally
forth to scatter desolation. The tur-
key struts about the yard. never
thinking what IL spending. The woods
man sharpens up his saw and swings
his shining ak; while capitalists plot
and scheme way to dodge the tax /.

HONOR TO
WHOM DUE

Whoever called a farmer hay
seed" or any other name in derision,
did not stop to consider the respect
due him and the high position he
should fill. From the land and the
cultivation thereof, comes all Of our
food. Some one has said that from
land comes all wealth. Everything
men are or need comes from the land
by labor and by the work Of people.
Take any ordinary thing. This
paper. for instance, came from wood
pulp, made out of the trees which
grew wild and which we're cut down
by the labor Of men; they were
ground up and rolled and bleached
by the labor Of men. There is moth
ing whatever in this piece Of paper
except land and labor.
Even the part Of the paper that
we know as the capital employed In
making it, the tools and the other
machines in their turn, all came out
of the earth for tie Iron was taken
out Of the earth by the labor of men
and was shaped into paper making
machines by the labor of men. When
we realize that everything that we
eat, everything that we wear, every
thing that shelters us, comes out
Of the land by labor, and out Of no.
thing else, then we respect the men
who do the work to bring the good
from the land. =

SICK HEADACHES
NOT HELPED
BY CURES

There are many Wedfisoho o"i
dens which women have to bear, but
none is more exhausting than what
is commonly known as a sick head
ache. To be candid, this burden is
very often borne by men as well, but
unfortunately, women have a more
extensive acquaintance with this form
of ailment and one which is In some
cases very frequently renewed
Women who are subject to sick
headaches lead pretty miserable lives
on the whole, but their lot could be
remedied very easily with the exer-
else of a little restraint and a good
deal Of common sense. The first
headache may come from any num-
Der of causes, but the succeeding
headaches depend largely on the treat
ment given the first.
Most women rush to their bottle
of patent headache medicine at the
first signs Of pain. and sigh with re"
lief when the pain is avoided. But
they do not realize at what cost TO
themselves they put off this pain with
patent medicines. Almost all head
ache cures contain drugs which weak
en- the heart and nerves.
10 Dangerous Practice
They invariably cause the head
aches to become more frequent until
their use is almost constant and Is
necessary to relieve pain. II the wo-
man who Is addicted to the use Of
these drugs will think back she will
remember the time when her head
aches were not nearly SO frequent As
they are at the present time.
Instead of taking a patent medicine
to remove the pain temporarily, any
immediate relief should be sought
which may be applied externally
And then cause for the headache
should be sought and removed So
that 1t will not recur.
The first steps toward immediate
aid are complete relaxation, in
darkened room. Many women be
lieve in the efficacy Of cold cloths
for the relief of pain, but a very hot
cloth will be found to do the work
much quicker. A hot water bag a
the feet will aid to take the blood
away from the head, and so relieve
the pain.
One woman combines the cold ant
hot treatments by placing an ice bal
on her head and hot water bag a
her feet.
So much for the temporary relief
Now for the cause! Headaches ma!
come from tired eyes, strained nerves
fatigue or a disordered somach an
in four cases out Of five 1t is the lat
ter. When the cause has been dis
covered the trouble must be remoy
ed. No temporary relief will serv
when the headaches become constan
visitors, but an immediate removal o
the cause will leave no reason for
return visit.
