cluslon that if they were wealthy
and wishes to do philanthropic
work in the mountains of North

tabllshing schools erect cotton mills

Mr.. Merchant Do You
Advertise?

c. w. Post, the millionaire breakfast food manu-
facturer, at dinner given to his employees some
time ago. in response to toast to the success of his
foods, said Gentlemen, appreciate the delight
full compliment paid to our breakfast food, which,
of merits your favor and the applause Of the
world bit would not have you forget that the sue
cess of this venture is also keen compliment to the
science of advertising"
That's true it proves what advertising will do Ii
you will find some use for common white sand, and
advertise it extensively ond udiciousy, it will beas
a gold mine.
Why it is that merchants are afraid to venture out
in this line, is hard to understand. Every business
man knows it pays to advertise. Every business
man knows millions have been made with some COM
mon article not always even necessity, but adver-
tise properly. Every business man knows that the
mos prosperous merchants are the heaviest advertl
sers; yet the average man does not seem TO grasp
necessity.
You will be old and infirm, before trade will in
crease without the use of printers ink in some form
The personal testimonials of your few customes will
be long time reaching around the community.
Advertise, and get your personal workers band
enlarged and instead of half dozen SO families,
get dozens and treat them so we'll that they are
compelled to talk about your merchandise.
See here, Mr. Merchant, to sum up, you must
make your advertising an intelligent campaign
planning with the same thought used in the seec-
ton of the merchandise.
Advertise your goods and you will sell them as
sure as two and two make four.

THE COLORADO DESERT.
How Sound Carries and the Way Mi
RACES Come and Go.

Talk about wireless telephones
The Colorado desert goes science
one better in that line. According
to travellers in that neck OF sand
and sagebrush, you can dispense
with any kind of telephone, with or
without wires, at least up to a GER
tain distance.
Two men mile apart can carry
on a conversation in an ordinary
tone of voice, particularly if there
happens to be a small hill behind
each, writes Harvey HallKessler in
the Travel Magazine. The prevail
ing silence IS so intense that it
might be called deafening.
Perhaps, after all, the weirdest
among many strange features of the
desert is the mirage. We have
camped perhaps and gone to bed
early in the evening with the ther-
mometer registering not far below
IL hundred mark. We awake,
shi ering with cold beneath our
blankets, and look toward the east.
There is the slightest suggestion
of light in the sky there, which as
we watch grows slowly in strength.
A grayish haze marks the horizons
edge, which stands out more sharply
at one point, from which broad,
pale rays creep up and out high
above in the sky. These again
slowly fade as a point of brilliant
light appears at their base. This
point grows to half circle, then
breaks and runs along the sky line
in a surging, golden lake.
Upon the shores of this lake
cities spring up, towers, spires and
solid blocks. These fade into fields
and forests and farming scenes
fields of golden grain, cattle stand
ing in green alfalfa, SHEETS of wa
ter. The mountains near the edge
of the lake separate from their
bases and float upward, topple over
and stand on their heads, their IN
wieldy feet in air.
Soon our lake begins to contract
and collect inte. a big rounl bali Of
dazzling brilliance hung just above
the horizon. Farms and forest dis.
appear. The mountains, as though
abashed at being caught in such ar
mseemly attitude by the broac
light of day, quickly resume thell
normal position, while all the starl
landscape stiffens into unstirring en-
durance of the garish light ant
blazing heat Of the desert sun. The
mirage is gone like bubble. ONLY
the gray desert remains.

The Gaylords and Nelson's have
always been neighbors and intimate
friends. So when John Gaylord at
twenty-four, as fine a fellow as ever
was, began to see what an altogeth-
er charming girl Molly Nelson was
there was naturally no opposition.
Indeed, as the "affair" became Sc
rious it was evident to all, includ-
ing John and Molly themselves,
that the parents concerned were de-
lighted. As yet there was no form
al announcement, but every one
knew that it was understood" and
evening after evening John talked
to Molly on the front porch, often
lingering after the other Nelson's
had retired. "a
The surprise of the two was con-
sequently great when one evening a
shutting step was heard. IN the hall,
and presently Mr.. Nelson appeared
in slippers and dressing gown, can

had gone to bed and then got up
for some purpose.
"Why, father, what is the mat

Molly's cheeks weresburning, as
her father stood there hesitating
and eying John closely. John, lean
ing against the doorpost, where he
had stood for the last fifteen min
utes saying good night to Molly,
felt decidedly uncomfortable under
Mr.. Nelson's gaze.
In fact, it was embarrassing al
around. But John is young man

GOLDEN NEEDLES.
They Were Used When GaIlants 10
France Did Fancy Work.


During the old regime in France,
about which so much glamour re-
mains to us, the very men who were
living and making the history of the
empire of Louis passed their leisure
time in a way chat seems to US OF
today utterly ridiculous. In all the
fancy work on which ladies employ
ed themselves the men seem TO have
taken part.
Poinsinet in one OF his comedies
represents 4 young marquis enter
ing a room where two fair damsels
are embroidering. One is working
piece of dress trimming, the other
o Marty founce. The beau examines
the embroidery with the eye of a
connoisseur, points out here and
there the specially good touches and
Is too polite to notice any defects.
He takes a little gold tube out OF
the pocket of his richly decorated
waistcoat and selects dainty gold
needle. He goes to the frame at
which Cidalise is working and fin
ishes the flower which she had be-
gun. From her be moves to the
sofa and, seizing one end of the
founce, assists Ismene, to whom he
pays special attention, to complete
her task.
At this time it was the custom OF
the ladies invariably to carry their
workbags with them to the evening
receptions, in which they had not
only their embroidery materials, but
the last novel, the popular songs,
their patch boxes and rouge pots.
Gentlemen also carried deftly en-
broidered little bags into company,
which held ga whole arsenal of cut
lery and fancy articles, such as
boxes Of different shapes filed with
lozenges, bonbons, snuff and scent
At another period the fashion OF
the day was to cut out drawings
from books and pamphlets and to
paste them on screens, lamp shades,
boxes and vases. The skill In this
was to so arrange the drawings or
parts Of different drawings as to
produce a curious or amusing ef-
feet. Then there came a season
when all the rage was for charades
and riddles, which gave peculiarly
good opportunity to exercise the
light and rapid wit so conspicuous
in the French. Every evening the
drawing rooms were converted into
impromptu charades. Some lady
would suggest word or phrase, and
forthwith it would be converted into
the subject of a sprightly little play.
Many of the word games now cur
, rent with US in America had their
origin in the necessity the French
salons were under in the last CEN
tury to divert themselves. In some
of the salons the fashion of keep
ing daily chronicle of news, which
was too often a mere chronicle OF
scandal, was adopted. Nine Dou-
blet de Persan issued bulletins
which she called "nouvelles a la
main" In her apartments two reg
listers were kept, one of the authen-
tic news received here and there by
her guests, the other Of floating ru-
mors and on dts, and from these
the budget Of Ter chronicle was
made up AL circulated throughout
Frxnce.-App,es,e's Magazine.
