Pictorial Beauty.
The pictorial beauty is one who is

1t is there an accepted fact and one

1t seems q shame that something is
not being done right now towards a
great white way for the city. The
posts and electrical apparatus ought
to be installed right now before the
paving is completed. The Indepen-
dent is informed that the cost of in
stalling each post would be but $25
and while few of the property own
ers object to the improvement at this
time on the grounds that the cost Of
paving already Is considerable, many
of the business and professional men
would be glad to contribute to the in
itial cost. The Independent for one
would be willing to stand the cost of
the installation Of one post. Minot is
taking forward step in paving that
is commendable. Let US take another
and do the job up white" A great
white way added to the other improve
ment would increase the value of each
business lot from one to two thousand
dollars. Can we afford to wait?

The Reporter talks about stopping
the wheels of progress. Its publisher,
G. A. Johnson owns q modest appear
ing brick structure on Main street
which is said to give him monthly
income of from five to six hundred
dollars. Still. Mr.. johnson does not
want to spend few dollars to install
the posts for great white way. He
actually did all in his power to re-
tard the letting of the paving contract.
Mr.. johnson, instead Of being crushed
by the wheels of progress, is actually
being benefited by them He is go
ing to reap the benefits of the efforts
on the part Of the more progressive

One of the Friedman tuberculosis
Institutes is to be located at Colfax,
la. The Independent has heard ru-
mors that one of the Institutes is to be
located in North Dakota and rumors
have been rife that Minot may be Sc
lected. We note that the North Da-
kota board of health, after due con-
sideration, has failed to recommend
this "cure." 1t has failed to secure
the commentator of the scientific
committee of the American physicians
who watched the test carefully. Such
an institute should not be allowed to
operate until it's efficiency is we'll es-
tablished and in this instance, this will
hardly be the case.

ANGELS WANTED.

We know of a man that advertises
in a paper which should bring results,
yet he claims that this advertising
does not benefit him in any way. Why
does he spend hundreds Of dollars
every year if it cannot and does not
increase his business? The reason he
gives is that the publisher is zone of
Gods noblemen." If this were bus
iness-like basis for placing advertising
it would not be unreasonable for pub
fishers to use want ads like this:

Using for the Bunktown Daily Bugle,
Paper has four subscribers and the
publisher goes to church." The less
important points Of this question are
concerned with the inanity of such an
advertising policy, if indeed it may he
called policy, and with the quality
of a friendship that seeks such re-
ward. More important is the fact that
too much advertising is placed today
on this or a similarly idiotic basis
and it hurts business. These sums
will naturally be charged to the ad-
vertising appropriation (when they
should be entered as charity or profit
and loss), and if no results are shown
everybody is given to understand that
advertising doesn't pay" Perhaps
we should have headed this article,

WHAT ADVERTISING IS.

Don't Get the Idea
That everything that talks about
your store is advertising.
That everything you print your
name on is advertising.
That simply buying space in papers
is advertising.
That an attractive ad can make a
customer buy from a dowdy sales
clerk.
That thoroughly worked ad can
draw trade to under-stocked depart
ments.
That a cerefully gotten up ad viii
pull with a careless store service.
Remember That
Advertising is not to be bought by
the yard.
Advertising is not to be grabbed ct
with pencil at the last moment.
Advertising is not gallop Of the

dreds of men are walking the streets

other boom Canadian cities looking
for work which cannot be found. The
Canadian financial bubble seems to
have burst and no relief is in sight.
The Canadian banks, backed by the
Bank of England, have received in
structions to loan no more money. A
farmer may have valuable holdings
but cannot borrow a dollar on them.
Many who bought property in the
Canadian cities at fabulous prices are

plentiful as long as property changed
hands often and at a profit, but an
end was bound to come to the fictitious

on the payment plan have their good

on the property. Serious losses will
result.
