'e<<~~>>>>~~~~e~S~>e,

We told you last week that never
again during the contest would YOU
be able to secure so many votes on a
single subscription.
When we told you that we meant
exactly what we said. We propose
to keep our word. We are, how
ever making another offer, but it is
not quite SO good as the Booster
Period . or "Cpportunity Offer"
Triple votes this week. Just
think Of it.
Here is another big offer Of The
Commemorative Auto and Prize
Contest. It is triple votes, which
means that all subscribers to The
Commonwealth, old or new, turned
in between the dates Of Wednesday
October 29th, and Tuesday night
November Al At 500 o'clock, will
count triple the usual number Of
votes.
By gianc;ng ovar tie display ad-
vertisemeTA II this Issue of the Com
monwealtil, you will also noe tllo
announcement Of the division Of the
remaining days of tic contest into

est on the list is very low. Act to-
day.
The real busy week Of the contest
is now before all candidates who
are desirous Of winning one Of the
prizes in The Commemorative con-
test and some lively hustling will be
| made to win this week. Triple
votes is the inducement offered for
this week. Work hard all this week
and your efforts cannot help but be
rewarded, for fear you do not un-
derstand the Triple offers for this
week we are giving full explana-
nation today. Double votes will be
the program for the next week Of
the contest.
Triple Votes means that just ex-
actly three times the usual number
of votes will be given on each and
every subscription to The Common
wealth turned into the Contest De-
partment before Tuesday night, No
vember 4, at 9 p. m. This Triple
vote proposition includes both old
and new. Subscriptions from three
months to five years will count
triple votes.
In the olden times charms were
used to bring about things greatly
desired. There as the old saying
addressed to the stars:
''Star, light, star bright;
First star I've seen tonight"
and hundred others for the same
purpose of bringing good luck.
Then, picking up pins is warrant
ed to bring any number of wished
for happenings. Perhaps each one
of the candidates in The Common
wealth's Contest has her own par
ticular fetish which is going to
bring her that Auto, but in these
modern days little effort will do
more than any number of incanta-
tons.
Instead of picking up pins, candi-
dates in this contest should pick up
their pencil and receipt book during
the Triple Vote offer, which ends
Tuesday night, November 4. at 3
o'clock and secure every possible
subscription. They count more real

of your friends to go out and secure
one or more new or old subscrip-
tions.
A most excellent method of pro-
cedure is to organize a force OF
friends and get each one to pledge
himself or herself to get one new
and one old subscription. Each can
didate has a large circle of friends
and by organizing them can wage a
most effective campaign. Many a
battle has been won by a final rally
on the part of the fighters and the
same can be worked out with exec
lent results in this instance.
SEE ALL OLD SUBSCRIBERS.
You should see all old subscribers
Of The Commonwealth and have
them pay you. You will be given cred
it just the same and it will not incon-
venience them to pay that amount
as they spay eventually anyway.
By paying you instead of the collec-
tor you are given votes and every
little helps.
Remember that payments made
by old subscribers on arrearages
count votes just the same as if the
payments were in advance.
And do not forget that Triple
Votes is for one week only.

world, but that peace has been
frightened by constantly multiply

many e'evating influences, both of
ideal and Of practice.
The nation not only has been pros
porous but has proved its capacity to
take calm counsel amidst the rapid
movement Of affairs and deal with
IFS own life in spirit candor, right

seen the practical completion Of
great work at the lsthmus of Pana-
ma, which not only exemplifes the
nation's abundant resources to ac-
eomplish what it will and the dis
tinguished skill and capacity of it's
public servants. but also promises
the beginning of a new age, of new
contracts, new neirhborhoods. new
sympathies, new bonds. and achieve

She further remarked that she
did not think she could win one Of

This remark causes the writer to
ask; "How many whosename

are not. If you have the least
thought in that direction; consider
this as a little personal talk with
you.
Some time ago l met man, who
ranks among those who know him
best, as a man Of more than ordi-
nary intelligence and talent, He
was out in a field seemingly occu-
pied in the search Of some rare
flower or mineral. He was half
standing and half reclining with his
head nearly touching the sod,-
vious to all his surroundings.

perhaps, upon which he quickly rails

His embarrassment was apparent
as he partly turned his head away
and answered:
