Good Times Coming.

The following from Witt K. C0ch-
rane. president of a large advertising
agency in Chicago, should greatly en-
courage the merchants and business
men in Bamberg. Mr.. Cochrane
ought to know what he is talking
about-anyway it sounds reasonable,
and We hope every merchant in Bam-
berg will read it carefully. If this
advice is good in Chicago, it is good
in Bamberg:
1t is inconceivable that any mer-
chant or manufacturer should cease
Or even curtail-his advertising
just when the country is on the
threshold of a tremendous double
harvest-the natural harvest of our
own unprecedented crops and the
logical harvest consequent on the
war in Europe.
1t is under such conditions as
these that advertising reaches the
zenith of it's power. The man who
listens to the yellow pessimist and
sits back to wait for things to set
tie down." is yielding his common
sense and enterprise to- the baleful
influence of idle sentiment, and ac-
tually starving the goose that lays
the golden egg.
To all MY clients I have sent this
definite, uncompromising and cheer
full message: Keep the columns of
the daily newspapers bristling with
your announcements and thus open
wide your doors for the food of pros
perity that is bound to rush in. Make
hay while the sun shines. We won't
have another chance like this In a
hundred years"
I have noticed with feeling of
profound disgust the conservatism
and business cowardice that have
set in in America since the kaiser
threw down the guage o. battle. We,
the very people who will logically
profit by the war abroad-ard profit
Immeasurably-are acting as though
We were at war ourselves. We are
talking blue things, pinching the pen
nies. cutting down our advertising
and forcing prosperity to stand back.
AS a matter of fact, this is the
very hour when we should rush into
print to a greater extent than ever
before because unless the earth opens
and swallows US up, there will be
greater prosperity in America this
fail than ever in the history of the
republic. We are not at war. We
are not likely to be. The warning
world looks to us for it's supplies
and we can't keep prosperity down
no matter how hard we try.
If my advice is worth anything to
you business men, it is here convey
ed to you in six words: Advertise
now and never let I'D.

OPPORTUNITY FOR MILLS.
To Get Trade Which is Lost to
Europe.

Col. Leroy Springs of Lancaster,
S. c., is quoted as follows in the cur
rent issue Of the Manufacturers Rec
ord on the situation as it relates to
American trade:
I'm case the European war should
last longer than 60 days, it would
seem that our exports of cotton
goods would materially increase, and
it would be the greatest opportunity
that American spinners could have
to introduce their goods both to the
Orient and South American trade.
If the war continues the European
spinner who has heretofore been sup
plying the bulk of the Oriental and
South American trade would be un-
able to do 80 and with the proper
effect American mills should be able
to take up this business and very
largely increase our export trade
with these countries. This would
bring about a much larger consump-
tion of cotton in this country.
"As to your second question, I
have great confidence in the present
administration being equal to the
emergency, and, with the active CO.
operation of the banks, we should
be able to handle and finance the
crop in such way as to make it
bring fair prices to the producer. I
think it would not be to the interest
of the American manufacturer to
have low-priced raw material.
with the cooperation of the gov
ernment, the banks, the cotton pro-
ducer and the cotton mill, We should
be able to very largely increase our
trade with the Orient and South
American countries, and should be
in position to maintain it after 1t
is once obtained Our mill agents
should be active in their efforts to
find out just what these countries
need, and we should cooperate not
only in introducing the fabrics we
are now making, but also in manu-
featuring the styles of goods and put
ting them up the way they are de-
sired in these countries. This, /
think, has been very much neglected
by American manufacturers in the
past
The use of cotton may be restrict
ed during the first six months of the
war but the world must be clothed
and cotton is used for 80 many diff
ferent purposes l do not believe it
will be necessary to market this
present crop except at fair prices"

BUSY QUEEN MARY.
Leads the Simple Life and Sews for
the Poor.

Queen Mary, of England, will not
allow freedom of tone or conduct in
those about her. and she will not put
up with 'vagaries, says the current
Woman's Home Companion. Dislike
ing cards, she occupies after-dinner
hours, even when visiting at great
country houses, in sewing. In private
apartments occupied by the royal
family she has in each room an un-
finished piece Of needlework, which
she takes up in odd moments. Of
dancing, however, she is very fond,
and at Court balls, which will pro-
bably be more numerous when
Princess Mary cones out. the Queen
never misses a waltz or a quadrille.
Life is much simpler at the palace
than it was in King Edwards time.
Regularly once a month all bills are
examined and paid, plan quite diff
ferent from the one pursued in the
preceding reign. and, indeed, by the
British aristocracy in general.
Herself a practical cook-for she
learned.in her girlhood in the kitchen
of White Lodge and Kensington Pal
ace-she still finds time now and
then to make cakes and knows how
things should be done.
Fond Of the needle and accustom-
ed to the sewing machine, she taught
Princess Mary to help darn her broth
ers' socks; even the young Princes
have learned to knit socks and nit
tens as part of their contribution to
institutions. In a year, for a single
charity, the Queen makes as many as
sixty woollen garments, and re-
members in their making that people
who are poor love pretty things as
much as do the rich. At Balmoral
after dinner in holiday time Queen
Mary, for instance, is busily knitting
for some needy one

The sweating" process, threaten
ed by the governor in the event of
his defeat, has begun. The first act
was to try to stuff John G. Richards
down the throats of the people as
governor, saying he would not call
a special session of the legislature
if Richards were not elected. The
governors threat was of no avail
A majority of those who have studied
the situation are of the opinion that
a session of, the legislature at this
time could do nothing but cost the
State a lot of money. Even many
of the governors supporters do not
agree with him on the matter of a
"stay" law.

He Knew She'd Guess 1t.

For five years John Henry had
been keeping company with Hannah
May, but not one time had he whis-
tied any tune that sounded like a
wedding march. Naturally Hannah
May was beginning to feel a trifle
concerned.
One evening, however, John Henry
came to the house looking as if he
might propose, and great hope filled
the heart of the fair one. Hope de-
veloped into certainty when the
young man drew a small jeweler' s
box from his vest pocket.
Hannah, dear" began John Hen
ry, in a gentle voice, Il have brought
you a little present, but I'm afraid it
won't fit you finger. Will you try i,
on?"
"Oh, John" ecstatically cried the
dear one, do you really mean to
say that you have bought me"
Yes" was the hope killing re.
joinder of John as he handed over
the box, "a thinble. | knew you

ISLANDS ARE DISAPPEARING.
Historic Spots in Lower Potomac Be
ir ing Washed Away.

The Islands in the Potomac and
along the eastern side of the Chesa-
peake Bay are being reduced with
more or less rapidity and is said
to be question Of only a few years
before several of them will disappear.
During every big storm portions OF
st Georges and the other islands in
the lower river are carried away, but
the erosion is particularly marked at
st Georges, the area of which has
been much reduced in the last quar-
ter of century.
Just above Glymont, about 22
miles below this city, is Craney Is
land and on it formerly stood several
houses used by fishermen in seine
hauling. The island was then large
enough to accommodate easily the
fishermen and a gig storehouse. The
use of the island for fishing purposes
was abandoned twenty or more years
ago, and since that time the waves
of the Potomac have almost complete
ly washed the island away, until but
a small spot of land remains above
water.
According to the Investigators in
the geological survey service. tilgh-
man. Sharp and James islands, along
the eastern shore of Chesapeake Bay
above Point Lookout. are rapidly de-
creasing in size from the action OF
the waves.
Tilghman Island, the largest and
most northerly of the islands is more
than 8 1-2 miles long and has an
acreage of more than 3 square miles
providing homes for many prosperous
farmers and fishermen. At its north
end are located the towns of Thigh
man and Avalon, with population
of several hundred persons.
Sharp Island is the smallest of the
three. Less than a generation ago II
was a summer resort and supported
several families throughout the year
Now all the trees have disappeared
save half a dozen and the buildings
have been washed away except
large hotel, which stands alone II
the centre of the island. The site o
an Artesian we'll has been reached b!
the waves. In 1S4S the island contain
ed 43S acres of land. In 1900 onl!
81 acres remain. and in 1910 onl!
SO. If the present rate of erosion
continues unabated the island will b'
gone in fourteen years.
