why Should
| Advertise p

81 have been in business in this town for
years! Everyone knows my store! / don't
need to advertise any more!"
Such an argument as this is often offered by
old and reputable firms as their reason for not
telling the people about their goods through
newspaper advertising
1t might be said that the greatest trouble
with firms that advance such excuses is that
they are not abreast of the times, SO to speak.
They have failed to realize that advertising
is the development of modern business competi-
ton. In large per cent of cases, along the
same street with the stold and established
firms, there have sprung up in the last few
years, other business houses of the same lines
and they have established trade equal, if
not superior to, that Of the old and estab-
lished : firms
Do you think that the secret success that has
enabled these new firms to develop that trade
is hidden and known to q selected few?
If there is secret, it is not hidden IN fact
it is in daily evidence.
In short: NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING.

Mr.. 's0ld and Established Merchant, . con-

there are people living in this city who have
come to town of late years, who have been con-
stantly reading the newspaper advertisements
of your young and thriving competitors and
hardly realize that you are in business, unless
you tooFare an ardent advertiser.
If You doubt this statement, experiment
little that is if you aresnot as large an adver-

slider Young and unestablished, step out on the
street and stop the first ten people you chance
to meet and aske them to name merchant in

the ones who advertise.
The best way to avoid serious competition in

plow.
It took header over the side OF
the road and down several feet into
the stream, just as the masked man
and the driver jumped far ahead into
the water.

On the edge of the water. just COW

lay motionless. The masked man
crawled from under the wreckage and
looked at him moment.
"Dead." he exclaimed, still me-
chanically gripping a rife in his hand.
Angrily he raised it at us and flred.
A moment later, some other men
gathered from all directions about
him, each armed.
"Don't mind the wreck" he cried,
exasperated. "Fire!"
A volley was delivered at us. But
the distance was now apparently too
great
We were just congratulating our
selves on our escape. when a stray
shot whizzed past, striking piece di-
rectly out of the head of the steering

Naturally she lost control, though
fortunately we were not going so fast
now. Crafty, our car swerved from
side to side of the road, as she vainly
tried to control both it's speed and di-
rection. On the very edge of the ditch,
however, 1t stopped.

tive just had very queer expert
ence-found something down on the
rocks" she replied seriously, pointing
to the square package on the floor of
the car. II took it to Lieutenant
Woodward and he advised me to take
it to Professor Arnold on his yacht. I
think it is bomb. ! wish you'd go
with me-
Before I could answer, up the hill a
rifle shot cracked. There was a
whirr in the air and bullet sang past
us, cutting the red feather off Elaine's
hat.
Duck" cried, jumping into the
car "And drive like the dickens!"
She turned and we fairly ricocheted
down that road back again.
Behind us man, stranger whom
we did not pause to observe, rushed
from the bushes and fired after us
again.
Suddenly another rifle shot cracked.
It was from another car that had
stealthily sneaked up on us-coming
fast, recklessly.
There's her car" pointed one Of the
occupants to man who was masked
in black. eyes," he nodded. 'Give her
little more gas!"
Crouch down." I muttered, "as low
as you can"
We did so, racing for life, the more
powerful motor behind us overhauling
us every instant.
We were coming to a very narrow
part of the road where it turned, on
one side sheer hill, on the other a
stream several feet down.
If we had an accident, I thought, it
might be ticklish for us, supposing the
square package really to be bomb.
What if it should go off? The idea
suggested another, instantly. The car
behind was only a few feet OF.
AS we reached the narrow road by
the stream, rose up. AS far as could
back of me, I hurled the Internal ma
chine. It fell. We received shower
of dirt and small stones, but the cover
of the car protected us. Where the
bomb landed, however, it cut a deep
hole in the roadway.
On came Del Mars car, the driver
frantically> tugging at the emergency
brake. But it was of no use. There
was not room to turn aside. The car

was only a few minutes before Lieu-
tenant Woodward himself appeared.
What is the trouble, Miss Dodge"
he asked solicitously, noting the look
on her face.
I don't know what it is" she re-
piled obviously. i've found some
thing among the rocks. Perhaps it
is bomb"
Woodward looked at the package,
studying it. Professor Arnold is in
vestigating this affair for u.s." he re-
marked. Perhaps you'd better take
the package to him on his yacht. I'm
sorry can't go with you, but just now
I'm on duty"
That's a good idea," she agreed.
"Only I'm sorry you cant go along
with me-"
She started up the car and drove off
as Woodward turned back to the fort
with a lingering look.
Del Mar was hard at work in the
library when, suddenly, he heard a
sound at the panel. He reached over
and pressed button on his desk, and
the panel opened. Through it came
the diver still wearing his dripping
suit and carrying the weird helmet un-
der his arm.
THAT Dodge girl has crossed us
again!" he exclaimed excitedly.
Howl" demanded Del Mar, with an
oath.
81 saw her on the rocks Just now.
She happened to stumble on the
bomb which you left there to be
placed"
"And them" demanded Del Mar.
s'She took it with her in her car"
.The deuce!" calculated the for
eign agent furiously. "You must get
the men out and hunt the country
thoroughly. She must not escape at
any cost"
The diving man dove back into the
panel to escape Del Mars wrath,
while Del Mar hurried out, leaving his
valet in the library.
Quickly Del Mar made his way to a
secret hiding place in the hills back
Of the bay. There he found his
picked band of men armed with rifles.
AS briefly as he could he told them
of what had happened. eve must get
her this time-dead or alive" he or
dered. "Now scatter about the coun-
try. Keep in touch with each other,
and when you find her, close in on her
at any cost"
The men saluted and left in vari-
GUS directions to scour the country.
Del Mar himself picked up rife and
followed shortly, passing down a
secret trail to the road where he had

a car with a chauffeur waiting. Still
carrying the rifle, he climbed in and
the man shot the car along down the
road.
On the top of a hill one Of the men
was posted as sort of lookout. Gaz-
ing over the country carefully, his
eye was finally arrested by something
at which he stared eagerly. Far away
on the road he could see car in
which was girl alone. Waving in
the breeze was a red feather in her
hat He looked more sharply, 1t was
Elaine Dodge.
The man turned and waved signal
with a handkerchief to another man
far off. Down the valley another of
Del Mars men was waiting and watch
ing. AS soon as he saw the signal,
he waved back and ran along the
road.
AS Del Mar whizzed along he could
see one Of his men approaching over
the road, waving to him. Stop" he
ordered his driver.

seen her car over the hill"
Good" exclaimed Del Mar, pull
ing a black silk mask over his eyes.
Now get off quickly. We've got to
catch her."
They sped away again in cloud OF
dust.
But even while Del Mar was speed
ing toward her, another of his men
had discovered her presence. so vigi-
liant were they.
He had been keeping a sharp
watch on the road, when he was
suddenly all attention. He saw a
car, through the foliage. Quickly
his rifle went to his shoulder. Through
the sight he could just cover Elaine's
head, for her hat, with a bright red
feather in it. showed plainly just over
the bushes.

and his trip included a night ride.
He had engaged a lerth ahead of
time and was comfortably fixed.
At one of the stations an aged
lady boarded the train but the
berths were all taken. The trav-

his wife the following telegram:

Dairy Industry in Dry States

Denver, Oct. IL. 1.-The posi-
bilities of the dairy industry in
dry states are unlimited, in the
belief of j. E. Dorman, of the
United States Department of Ag-
riculture, who addressed the In
ternational Farm Congress here
today. The industry. the speak
er declared. has the backing of
business men, banks and rail-
roads Of the country. and the
state and federal departments are
doing all they can to assist it's de-
velopement.
with such support as this,'
said Mr.. Dorman, lit is sure to
play a very important role in the
developement of our agricultural
dry lands" He said further:
I'm developing the dairying
industry in this territory, we
must bear in mind that we must
build on broad lines to make it
permanent. We must get better
dairy stock and feed them better
to increase the average produce
ton, per cow. Perhaps the most
serious difficulty to overcome.
and the one that will be the
greatest factor in success or fail
ure, is quality. If every dairy
man and every manufacturer of
products will strive to pro-
1uce quality the dry states can
gain reputation for their pro.
