Dead Money-A Talk
to Storekeepers

Every article you have on your
shelves which does not sell repre-
sents dead money.
1t is not earning anything. It
is taking up room.
1t is growing less in value as
it gets older.
1t does not sell because people
article but they do not know 1t
or believe in 1t.
People DO KNOW about the
good being advertised in their
newspapers.
If these are good goods they
will want them.
1t pays the retailer to CO.
operate with newspaper adver-
tfsed products, to show them in
the windows. and to push them.

The discussion of Viee-President
Marshalrs denomination is interesting
and it can have been provoked for
but one purpose, namely, to prepare
him and his friends for a refusal TO
name him again. Mr.. Marshall is not
exactly persona non grata at the White
House, but he is mighty near 1t; and
Woodrow Wilson does not hesitate to
visit his displeasure. Moreover. all the
precedents are against renominating a
Vice-President. How many have been
renominated in the last fifty years?
Just one.

words:
"Wilson tells Mission Of the Navy,

Just below is an extract from his
speech given yesterday in New York
at the U. S. naval review:
"When | think Of the flag which
those ships carry, the only touch or
color about them, the only thing
that moves as if it had settled spir-
it in it, in their solid structure, 1t

written the right of liberty and JUS

vindicate those rights; and then, In

swim which stands for these great
things"

test to be held at Knox college,

This important announcement was
received in a letter from the secre-

ISOLATION which also expresses con-
gratulations. The question of secur-
ing a place in the interstate is de-
cided after winning the state con-
test by what is called an elimination
contest, passed upon the excellence
of thought and composition. Out OF
ten orations submitted by state win
ners three failed, while seven pass
ed. The following seven states
therefore will be represented in the
coming contest: Iowa, Indiana
Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio
ana WISCONSIN.
While those who heard Mr.. Ander
sons Grafton were sure Of the excel
lence of it's thought and composition
yet it is a qualification and relief tt
know that it has won recognition
from the higher authorities, ant
that Cornell and Iowa are assured o

YOUNG man DIES OF
DOUBLE PNEUMONIA
Sam Taylor, the Unfortunate Wan.
derer, Passes Away at Mercy
Hospital.

Sam Taylor, the unfortunate
young man who was taken from the
county Jail to Mercy hospital several
days ago suffering with double pneu-
monia, passed away yesterday morn
ing. The young man, who gave his
age as nineteen years, told the sis
tiers at the hospital that he had no
relatives in the world so far as he
knew, neither friends, home or
money. Whether by nature or by
unfortunate circumstances out of
work, we cannot know, but he never
recalled a time when he had not been
tramping.
1t was rumored that of the many
Webster City people who were inter-
ested in his case and who took flow
ers and gave other attention to him
at the hospital, there was one man
and his wife who had intended TAX
ing him to their home upon his re-
covery and giving him the place Of
son. There will be no need now.
Doubtless weary in body and mind,
the wanderer welcomed the close Of
this life. At the end of the period of
time required by law, if no relatives
or friends appear to take charge of
the body, it will revert to the state
for scientific purposes.
