A Big Year
 For Nationally
 Advertised Goods

MT. Merchant, this message is written after a careful and exhaustive study of trade con- ditions all over the country.
 This is going to be a big year for standard goods of rec ognized quality because the man ufacturers are going to make more determined efforts to push them than ever before.
 Newspaper advertising in newspapers such as this will be largely used. And it is going to be pushed with the greatest vigor, and bring the best results in the places where the local merchants are ready to CO., operate.
 The anufacturers are willing to spend money to make a market at your doorstep, but they want you to let the people know that the goods can be had in your store.
 They will send the trade your way if you are willing to care for il when it comes.
 When such a condition exists. the live merchant should need no urging to do his share.
 Let us suggest that you get in tOach with the. manufacturers whose lines you carry, and let them know just what you are prepared to do in the way of cooperative work.
 It will mean better business for both of you.
 The Bureau of AdVertising. American Newspaper Publishers Association. World Building. New York, will be glad to answer any questions about cooperative work with dealers in newspaper advertising campaigns.

Commonsr.- Several republican mem
bers of Congress voice the opsni0n thai
II the democrats had not laid violent
hands upon the Payne Aldrich tariff law
the nations revenues would not be IN
need Of special war tax injection. The
anIntelligcnt character OF this criticism
may be judged from the fact that the
customs revenues under the Old tariff
formed much larger proportion Of the
total income Of the government than
under the new tariff, and consequently,
a cessation Of imports would have made
an even greater deficit under the Odd
tariff than under the new From which
it follows that a war tax measure reach
ing out into more avenues of commerce
would have been necessary if the tariff
had not been revised.

 AT OAR. CONVENTION
Yesterdays Sessions Were Filled With Thrilling
 Incidents. @

Washington, April 21.-When tho National Society of Daughters of the American Revolution met today in Continental Memorial hall the dele gates had planned to settle down to the consideration of routine business.
 Yesterdays sessions from beginning to end were filled with thrilling in cidents, the like of which have not been seen by the daughters in years. The features were an attack on a daughter for wearing the emblem of the Daughters of the Confederacy to- gether with the D. A. R. insignia, the adoption of resolutions pledging Pre- sident Wilson the society's support in event of war and prohibiting the mentioning of controversial questions that might cause dissension in the ranks of the society, such as suffrage liquor or other similar subjects
 The reading later of letter from George A. Miller of Chicago, who describes himself as a member of the Society of the Sons of the Revolution, protesting against the action of a daughter, who, he alleged, had worn a D. A. R. insignia beside one of the Daughters of the Confederacy, which he declared was an outrageous des- ecration of the principles of the D. A. R. society,"" provided wild excite ment. Instantly delegates were on their feet protesting against the read ing of the letter. It was read, how ever, but it was some time before , order could be restored
 Today's session was devoted to the reading of further committee reports l, and to the meeting of state delega tions.. '
