An Advertisement
Is a Challenge
BY HOLLAND.

THE man who advertises
Il is fearless. He courts the
light. He dares all and sum
dry to put him to the test.
"This is what / Offer" he
saws in effect. "Can you beat
it? Can you do better else
where? Make comparisons
and then do business with
me only if you find 1t is to
your advantage"
There is nothing hidden
about the advertiser. He
stands up for himself, for his
goods, for his reputation. for
his town. He wants every
body to know him. to know
his methods of business and
his manner of treating Gus
toners.
This makes it safe to do
business with him. Having
spent much money making
his name known. he cannot
afford to have 1t furnished.
and he will go much more
than halfway in an effort to
correct a misunderstanding
that is not of his making. He
wants to tell more than the
bare truth. to do more than
what is really square.

A big day of bargains on a joint ad-
Vertising sale of the local merchants
is the fond hope of Secretary McMil-
Ian of the Commercial club, who is
pushing the matter, hoping to get it
started for one day next month. The
plan has been used in a number of
cities and found to bring a large
amount of ready money into the city
as a result. Each store, under the
supervision of the Commercial club,
which handles the advertising, puts on
one or more articles on sale at big re-
duction and with every line represent
ed it gives the ranchers a splendid
opportunity to save money on their
entire purchases for the day. By MAX

IN many from territory not usually
tributary to this city. Several of the
local merchants have decided that the
plan is good one and are getting in
line with the Commercial club.

mrs. HAMILTON PASSES AWAY
Esteemed Pioneer Of City Succumbs to
Death.

At an early hour Wednesday morn.
ing Mrs. Frances Hamilton, wife OF
Attorney S. r. Hamilton, passed away
at the family home on Seventh avenue
North, from toxic poisoning after ly-
ing for days in a state of complete
coma. Death came as the end of a
brief ten days illness. Impaired
health had allowed toxic poisons to
collect and despite gallant fight and
seeming promised recovery, physi-
clans could do nothing. At the bedside
was the husband and only daughter,
Miss Beth, relatives at Colorado
Springs not having been notified of
the serious nature of her illness.
Frances McQuoun was born in Biggs-
vile, Ill, July 5, 1862, and was there
fore 81 years and II days of age at the
time OF her demise. On December 20,
1888, at Biggsville, she was united in
marriage with S. T. Hamilton. Much
of their married life was spent in
Colorado Springs, Colo, and at Fort
Collins.
The funeral services were held at
the residence last night at seven
o'clock and the remains taken this
morning to Colorado Springs, where
they will be inferred beside the two
daughters who passed away in early
childhood
DR.. Shepherd of the Presbyterian
church, of which congregation the de-
ceased was a member, gave a brief
address and paid the respects to the
Christian character of the deceased.
Favorite songs of Mrs. Hamilton were
sung by the church choir. From the
Masonic orders, the church societies
and the civic societies many and
beautiful floral offerings were sent in
to hide in measure the sorrow and
grimness which death always brings
to the bereaved family, and to show
the love and respect for the deceased
by the many friends in this city.
Together with her husband and two
daughters, Beth and Ruth, Mrs. Ham
iltOn came to Twin Falls when the
incoming trail thirty-five miles from
ShOshone, led into barren desert and
the beautiful city of Twin Falls of to-
| day was a dream long distant. AS a
member of the little group of women
pioneers Mrs. Hamilton bore her part
staunchly with the hardships that
came in the early days and those peo.
pie who passed through the same
hardships have a great deal Of love
and respect for the deceased who has
been stricken by death when life pre-
sents so much Of enjoyment in thu
wonderful city which she helped tt
build To the sorrowing relatives the
sympathy of the whole city is extend
ed in the bereavement that has come
to them.

Elected President.

The Baptist Pastors Institute closed
successful five days session Friday
afternoon. Rev. w. E. Henry of Twin
Falls, was elected president of the in
stitute and A. B. Minaker secretary.

the opinion OF the pastors that all ath-
letic sports should be encouraged in
the church and Sunday school.
The ministers passed resolutions
thanking the Boise church for their
delightful entertainment, and those
who assisted in the various ways in
making their visit so enjoyable. The
pastors all left for their respective
parishes last evening.
