COMPLEXION HINTS

Clearness and smoothness are
among the greatest of complexion
charms. Whiteness is desirable, Int
not indispensable. In fact, too white
skin is CHASTITY. The tint of the saiu
should harmonize with the hair and
eyes. II they be dark, the complex.
ion naturally has brunette tinge.

BEST REASON FOR
SAVING

SAVING
During hard times we are forced
to be prudent and thrifty and in con-
sequence get rich faster than we do
in what we call prosperous times. "
-Stuyvesant Fish.
The man who has looked upon saw
ing as an almost hopeless task with
the interest earned scarcely enough
reward for his efforts, ought to
change his views because Of the great
opportunities now presented to those
who have saved.
Pick up almost any newspaper and
you will see unusual real estate OPP
portun'ties because owners need the
money and will sell at a sacrifice
That Is where the thrifty man comes
in. He looks upon savings as CAPT
tai, which IL invested opportunity
will yield many times the usual rate
of interest.
For example, the other day we read
this little advertisement in the clas-
sifled section Of newspaper:
This place must be sold at once.
Any reasonable offer considered, as
need the money"
Such an advertisers extremity Is
the savers opportunity, because he
can use his savings to buy piece
OF real estate at price which will
net him a good profit when this tenn
porary depression and period of liQ-
uidation" Is over. which will be very
soon, unless all signs fail.
Perhaps In this very newspaper
there is advertised a business op-
portunity" which appeals to you and
which you might take advantage of II
you had some extra money available
for the purpose.
The only certain way to be ready
for business opportunities is to save
and deposit In the bank.
To most money earners the ques-
ton of acquiring capital resolves IT.
self into turning as much as possible
O! the earnings into a permanent In
vestment fund.
Build up a savings account In some
good bank with the purpose of being
ready for your opportunity when It
comes to you. as 1t surely Will, soon
er or later .-Pocatello Tribune.

dence that those who voted the Pro

of Kansas those who voted for Roose-

a protest against what happened In

THE WEAKEST
NEWSPAPER

No corollary Is SO well established
as the one which teaches us that the
newspaper which 10 most compliant
in regard to free advertising is al
ways the weakest newspaper.
The service that newspaper should
offer to advertisers consists In pub
fishing q clean, strong. well printed
intelligently arranged newspaper,
which has real and countable circu-
lation In the homes where that ad-
vertiser's goods would naturally be
bought. It should print the adver-
tisements legibly and attractively and
give them the full measure Of circu-
lation and cooperate in presenting AS
attractive copy as possible. All this
is as much part Of the legitimate
service that newspaper renders as
programs, seats and music ore part
OF theater's service or as iced wa
ter, electric lights and dining cars
are a part OF railroads service.
1t is time that strict line should
be drawn between the service that
newspaper should render and the SER
vice forced from 1t by some favored
advertiser at the expense Of others
not 80 favored, which vitiates and
weakens the value of that newspaper
as an advertising medium The AM
