What Salvation IL.

Salvation is not the petty concep-
tion Of personal safety from some far
OF doom. 1t is the saving of the
whole man; 1t is the domination OF
the higher nature over the lower;
it is the education of the spiritual, the
development, the evolution OF the God
to us, that divine spark in all human
ity that can never be wholly extin-
guished.-William ID. Little.

ADVERTISING Is Nor AN"EN-
pESsE"---Ir Is An EcoNoNY

ADVERTISING Is Nor A" EN-
prNsE"---IT Is An ECONOMY
The fact that specially ad-
vertised goods may be sold at
lower prices does not mean
that such sales represent a.
loss to the merchant, nor that
the special advertising repre-
scnts an expense. Ii 1t seems
wiser to a merchant to dispose
of an entire stock of goods, OF
a particular line, within a
period of 4 few days, rather
than to hold them in regular
stockton an indefinite period,
awaiting the usual demand
for them," then the cost OF
enough advertising to effect
such quick clearance, and the
price-concessions made on the
goods represent to him a real
business economy. For, with
no additional expense for sale
service, lie has condensed th'
trade of months, in that line
into a few days. He ha
served the stores friends
greatly increased his dali.
storeprofts--nobody has lost
cent---everybody concerne
has profted. So that the specia
advertising has not cost hlr
anything---it has not cost tn
patrons of the store anything
but has enabled them to saw
something. Thus advertiser
becomes a real economy.

the cases there is a cavity in the tooth.
In those cases where there is a cavity.
but no nerve exposure. the treatment is
simple-app1y a sedative and exclude
the secretions of the mouth from the
cavity: prompt relief will follow. and
then advise the patient to visit a com
petent dentist, says dentist
A very effective agent. and one al
ways at nand. Is the oil of cloves 1t
should be applied by saturating cotton
with the remedy and introducing 1t into
the cavity with toothpick or other
pointed instrument; that being done.
the secretions are kept out by filling
the cavity with a little beeswax, a
household remedy always at hand
The wax can be applied by warmins
over a lamp on the point of knife and
forcing into the cavity. The wax films
serves not only the purpose of keepins 5
