DOCTORS DO NOT ADVERTISE
But They Do Not Object to Free Pub
liclty Regarding Professional
Affairs.

When the advertising man called
upon DR.. Smith to solicit business for
the paper which he represented he
was told, rather loftily, that it was
against professional ethics" to adver-
tise. But when the cub reporter stop
ped at the doctors office two hours
later for news items, he received the
following:
DR.. H. Johnson Smith is moving his
office from 1 Bradley block to 146
Main street, where he will have an
entire suite of rooms. This change
was imperative on account of his rap
idly increasing practice.
Mrs Alice Jones of North Tenth
street fell upon the pavement near her
home this morning, sustaining brok-

duced the fracture.

How Bio Business Was Started.

We print this newspaper story alb
solutely without comment:
e S. Wells, who made fortune
out of the preparation known as
Rough on Rats" of which he was
the originator, died on Sunday at his
home at Glenmore, n J. He was born
in Morgantown, w. Va, seventy-two
years ago. Within four years Mr..
Wells rose from extreme poverty to
a position of afiuence through his in
vention. When Mr.. Wells and the
man with whom he then worked had
only a single loaf Of bread between
them and starvation their last bit Of
food was eaten by rats. Mr.. Wells then
set about to discover a means TO rid
the world of rats. After numberless
experiments he began the manufacture
of Rough on Rats in an old barn in
Jersey City. The preparation was
first peddled about in the locality, but
Mr.. Wells had bigger ideas. Every
dollar he could spare was spent in
advertising, and the business grew so
rapidly that at the end Of four years
he had an income OF 100000 a year.
He preferred, however, to continue the
business himself. In later years Mr..
Wells became an enthusiastic horse
man. His farm OF 600 acres at Glen
moore contained model stable.
Among his horses were Baron Dillon
and Red Lake He bought Baron Dill
Ion for $500, and within an hour re-
FUSED an offe, of $4,000"

Introduction of the English Bible
and English religious hymns into ia
pan has brought ludicrous results, &C
cording to an article entitled "The
japanese Bible" by Prof Ernest w.
Clement, instructor IN Biblical litera-
ture at the University of Toxic, in a
recent issue Of the Biblical World.
The Japanese merchants have secu-
larized the sacred tunes to such an ex-
tent that 1t is a common sight to see
a band of Japanese marching through
the streets advertising tea, rice and
dried fish to the tune of Onward
Christian Soldiers" or Nearer, My
God to Thee"
To make still more ludicrous con-
trast, the advertisers dress In gro
tesque costumes and perform aero
batic tricks to the tune of the hymn.

IN BANKERS HANDS.
Fostal Savings System Under
Man of Experience.
FORMER Governor Dockery, Who De-
voted Many Years to the Bank.
ing Business, Now Super
vises the Deposits.

Wash1ngton.-For the first time
since it's inception the postal savings
system Is to be administered by an
experienced banker. Third Assistant
postmaster General Dockery, before
ne became interested in wider politi-
Cal lie, was in the banking business
AS Tar back as 1866 he organized with
the assistance of a coterie of his
financial friends the Farmers Ex-
change bank of Gelatin, Mo. Later
ne became its cashier and remained
such until 1882.
Wnlie in many respects the postal
savings repositories are widely differ
ene from banking institutions, in the
ordinary acceptance Of the term, still
there Is much similarity noticeable,
and for this reason, more than for
any other, it is said, Postmaster Gen
erai Burleson was Influenced to call
10 his assistance in the administration
OF the new system that means SO much

Try the experience of a trained banker.
The last reports that may be said to
De complete thus far cover the system
up to March 81 last. At that time
there were 1898 repositories, located
at 1916 postoffices, of which 1922
were of the presidential class and
1888 were fourth-class offices. The
number of depositors at that date ap-
proximated 335,0OO and the amount
On deposit about $33.50O, 900, or an av-
erage of about 500 per deposition

UNHoLY HORROR OF POVERTY
Simple Duty of Every Man Is to Get
Away From BanefuI Thought OF
His Necessities.

The mental attitude determines the
tendency OF the life. According to
this law, there is everything in feel
ing rich, rich in everything that is
good for us, everything that will help
us to become what we intend to be-
come.
Many people have so long felt poor
and imagined that their lives must
necessarily be dry and barren of COM
that they have encouraged such condi-
tons. The habit of feeling that you
are poor and unfortunate, that the
good things of life are for others but
not for you, that there is something in
the universe which permits such con-
ditions, is deadening to all the noble
impulses, all that makes character,
all that makes life beautiful, Orison
Sweet Marden writes in Nautilus.
The way to make the idea the real
is persistenly to hold the thought of
their identity. The way to demon
strate abundance Is to hold it con-
stantly in the mind, frequently to say
to yourself: "All that my father
hath is mine" The Lord is nay shep-
herd; l shall not want" If this is
true (and you know that it isl, any
want or lack in your life is abnormal.
If you would use the same effort
and energy to see prosperity and to
picture plenty as you do poverty you
would not long be poor. You would
very soon get away from these dis
tressing conditions. But somehow the
whole human race has such a horror
of poverty that they concentrate upon
1t and attract it. The man who thinks
he is going to be unlucky in everything
he attempts, is infinitely more likely
to be so than the man who is filled
with confidence, assurance and ex-
pectancy of success, because a fall
ure atmosphere creates a negative, I'M
producing mentality, while hopeful,
expectant assurance, confidence,
creates productive mentality which
does things, achieves.
The earth is fairly overf1owing with
abundance; the universe is loaded
with marvellous resources of supply of
which We have not yet dreamed.
Nature has no preference for the Civ
ing Of her secrets, she does not give
up her wealth any easier to a Rookie
Teller or a Carnegie, than TO you or
me.

BEST INVESTMENT IN WORLD
Money Spent by Manufacturer or Mers
chant for Newspaper Publicity
Brings Good Returns.

The man who says Il wouldn't buy
that car because it's advertising In
creases the cost unnecessarily, Is
making the mistake of his life. He Is
overlooking an economic principle
tried and proved, that has more than
any other one agency to do with bring
ing within his reach a really high
class product at a reasonable price.
He is as much mistaken as the farmer
who would prefer embarrassing to
the purchase of an automatic binder.
Money spent in extensive and judi
cious advertising is the best invest
ment in the world today for every
one concerned; for the manufacturer
the dealer and the purchaser Of a
motor car. The product that is not
advertised will not sell readily, no
matter how attractive are quality and
price. The grocer or other dealer who
has on his shelves goods that are not
advertised will bear witness to the
truth of this statement Wholesalers
and manufacturers who do not use
printers ink will attest to Its truth
fulness by the cost system figures for
their sales department. Any salesman
in the world will tell you that adver1
tised goods can be, and are. sold at
much less cost than those unknown
except to a comparatively small CO.
terie of users.
Successful advertising is sure In
dication OF quality, for without value
of the product no advertising could
succeed. The manufacturer and every
one connected with the distribution
would lose reputation and money, for
the public will not long continue to be
gulled. Advertising is no more an
extravaganza than is the use of good
seed or good machinery by the farmer.
Extensive advertising is just as eco
nomical as quantity production In the
motor car industry, for it brings larg-
er and quicker returns Of the invest
ment, allowing for reinvestment in
materials and consequent large pro-
duction. 1t is an essential economic
factor of the eternal cycle" which
has placed American-made automo-
biles first in every market of the
world.

William c. Redfeld. secretary OF
commerce, in commenting on the de-
tailed figures con-
Exports and corning the i'm
Imports Big. ports and exports
of the United
States for the month of March and
the nine months ended March, said:
The figures are striking, both in
their magnitude and in their details.
The aggregate business, inward and
outward, of the United States with
foreign countries for the nine months
was a little in excess of $4,000, 600
an impressive total, which if main
tanned at the same rate would bring
the business for the entire fiscal year
well in excess of $4,10O,000,000
Great Britain is our largest GUS
toner, buying from US over $478 ,O0O,-
900, and selling us over 1924 100000
an aggregate for the nine months in
excess Of $712, 900 900, or a total bust
ness of nearly s80,000,000 a month
Canada is our second best customer,
buying from us S300,000,000 in nine
months, equal to nearly $1,300,0OO
every working day. A pretty fair GUS
toner, that. Then Germany comes
third buying $268, 100000 from us in
nine months and selling us $146,000,-
900. She is a pretty fair customer,
too-buys over s1,O0O.000 day. And
fourth. comes France, to whom we
sold s120,000,0O0, and from whom we
bought 100000.
"The figures for the entire nine
months are such as to give just pride
to every thoughtful American to
whose notice they come. Out of the
total transactions of 100000
there is balance in our favor of
little over $500,OOO,00O Doing pretty
we'll, that. But a few comparisons
with 1912 make it look even better.
For example, our sales of manufac-
lures for further use in manufacturing
increased over $56,000,000 and our
sales of manufactures ready for use
increased over the same period last
year $S8,500,00O, an increase in these
two lines of manufactured goods alone
of over $114, 500, 900, as compared with
the same period of last year"

in excess of the mortality from this
cause in progressive European coun-

pared with 23.5 the year previous.
Lower death rates are also noted in
tuberculosis, measles, scarlet fever,
cancer infantile paralysis and organic
diseases of the heart.
Increases were shown in the deaths
from pellagra, suicide and violent
deaths excluding suicide.
The increase in the mortality from
pellagra was large, according to the
statement. During the early part of
the decade, 1900 to 1909, the reported
mortality from this disease was in
significant, two deaths being returned
for 1900, two for 1908 and one for

were reported as due to this disease.
The mortality Of $50 for 1911, as COM
pared with 36S for 1910 indicates an
increase Of 70 per cent.
An important statement in the cen

diseases of the heart in 1911 caused
more deaths, S3,525, than any other
disease or group of diseases shown
in the abridged international list, al
though the number of deaths from
tuberculosis Of all forms, 94,2O5, was
considerably greater. However, the

In 1911 was slightly lower than that

for these two years is declared to be
much higher than that Of previous
