Advertising the Good Smell Of n Coun.

In the July American Magazine Da-
Vid Grayson, writing his story Hemp
field" tells about country editor
who advised n grocer I'm his town TO
advertise the fact that his store was
one Of the best-smelling places I'm the
community. Mort is the newspaper
editor and Mr.. Graham the grocer.
Following is an extract from the con
versation that took place between
these two:
Your store is one of the best
smelling places in this town. said
Mort. i always stop when go by TO
take n sniff of 1t. I should think It
would make people who come I'm here

He began TO sniff, turning his head
first this way and then that. TO Mr..
Graham this was novel and interest
Ing suggestion, and i'm moments
time he also began smiling I'm sol
emn and dignihed way.
1T does smell good, he admitted
Never thought OF IL before.
See here now: This is how I'd do
just for suggestion And he
began to write on paper:
Some Of the Good Things one may
smell upon stepping into
JOHN G. GRAHAM's STORE:
Delicious Coffee from Brazil
Molasses from New Orleans
Spices from Araby
What's Araby?' asker Mr.. Ora
ham. My spices are all from Bos-

"'Araby' said Mort. is whore they
grow EN-.
Oh" said Mr. Graham.
Cookies from Buffalo
Fragrant New Cheese
What else is it that smells?' asked
Mort lifting up his nose and shifting
discriminatingly.
Mr. Graham also lifted as his nose
and shifted and then, looking at Mort
solemnly remarked:
Kerosene and goldfish
Mort paused a moment; wish ha,
been there to see his eyes

Graham.

on advertising, but it is a sum OF

Snake Charmer Tries 10 Bite Out Rat.

POCATELLO, Idaho. June %. Geo.
lIorner, 28 years old. held a position
with the Campbell Carnival company
as snake charmer Horner and q
companion went out into the hills and
captured eight big rattlesnakes. Then
llOrner wanted TO extract the fangs OF
the reptiles and had succeeded by US
ing his teeth on the first few. But one
particularly squirmy one succeeded i'm
biting Horner on the lip and tongue.
and as a consequence he is consider
ing himself lucky to be breathing.
even via a tube put through hole i'm
his windpipe.
AS soon as he was bitten Horner
was taken TO Or. A. +. Newton. The
doctor administered antldotes and la
bored with the man for three hours.
Horncr's tongue became so swollen
that he could not breathe and DR.
Newton found It necessary 10 cut "a
hole in the mans windpipe. This
evening he was taken 10 the hospital
and is said to have more than an even
chance for recovery.
Horner had been in the snake
charming business for a number OF
years, and was considered an adept
at his trade. Just why he chose his
teeth as an instrument for extracting
the fangs could not be learned tonight
The Campbell company has beer
showing here for several days.

Gently. while speaking OF West Vir.
ginia's popularity as a healthful cline
Mr.. Proudfoot stated that the noun.
tain state does not even stand in the
background with Yellowstone Nation
al park when it is compared with the
natural mountain scenes. In some
instances West Virginia surpasses the
Yellowstone National park when il
comes to health and place for recre-
alton.
President Woodrow Wilson has
found West Virginia resorts to be the
finest i'm the world for recreation, and
spends part of his time at White
Sulphur Springs, in Greenbrier coun-
ty. when he can get away from state
affairs. Other notables are also max
ing the resorts in this state popular
by spending few wekes at them dur
ing the summer.
Most OF the health resorts are situ-
ated in the southeastern part OF the

Each year finds a number of noun

ers and westerners alike who come
TO this state for that recreation which

a health resort is growing more randi

swarming through the mountains on

SO popular has the state become
during the past few years that one of

Since August 3rd the Swiss have
been Obliged to assume a posture OF
defense along the whole OF their ex-
tremcly tortuous boundary. At that
time the war department practically
took charge Of the railways. The
change from the civil to the military
situation was a comparatively easy
matter. because the greater part OF
the system IS owned and controlled
by the government After the first
mobilization traffic resumed some
thing Of its normal regularity, but for
a fortnight the public knew not the
use Of rails.
The cost Of the occupation Of its
frontier Is rising TO tremendous sum
for a small nation. In 1901 the ex-
pensc Of mobilization was estimated
at about ten million franc; and that
war increased the public debt alto
gether about 15,6OO.OO0 francs. These
sums now seem ridiculous. Already
the Swiss government has placed one

other Of fifty millions. yet the soIidty

SlatOn's Message.

That message sent by Governor Sla-
ton to the New York World, and print
ed on the front page OF that paper,
should be read by every man who
has taken the slightest interest in the
case of Leo Frank. IL indicates not
only that the Governor OF Georgia has
done the right thing and the thing
which receives the unqualified appro-
val OF his conscience, but that he has
received the appreciation OF almost the
entire nation. This is what he said:
Atlanta, June 22.-While 1 decided
the Frank case without regard to an
ticipated approval or disapproval, ex-
cepting that of my own conscience, /
am personally pleased with the thou
sands Of expressions OF approval re-
ceiyed since the announcement OF my
decision. IL is especially gratifying
to note that the majority OF them
have come from my fellow Georgians.
These latter came from men in all
walks Of life and all sections of the
state. My decision is commended by
many persons OF high standing I'm
these communities, where, no doubt,
there has been a strong feeling OF
disapproval among the body OF the
people. Scores OF men in public life.
many OF whom have been and are my
political opponents. have approved my
action
These expressions from leaders OF
thought among my own people, bear
ing the marks of all sincerity, con-
vince me that the body OF the people
OF Georgia have not meant, and do not
mean, TO do injustice TO any man, and
that when they come TO know the
case, as 1 sought TO know It, they will
approve my action.
also greatly appreciate the many
expressions OF approval received fTom
other states.
The kilograms and letters received
are so numerous that II would be i'm
practicable to attempt a summary Of
them
