IS Per Gent Failia Business

OF the hundreds of thousands of merchants
engaged in business 95 per cent OF them fail
Why should they fail? Suppose 95 per cent of
the people died of dyptheria, what would we say?
There is no more reason in 80 per cent OF mer-
chants failing in business than there would be
reason in 95 per cent of the peOple,dying OF dyp-
iberia. 1T is pure waste. Statistics prove that
So per cent of merchants who tail in business are
non-adyertisng merchants. Advertising is the
only anti-toxin. Results of good advertisingare
certain The inexperienced generally meets
with disappointments in his advertising. Ad-
gvertis sn iiaspecial business just as medicine,
law, dentistry etc. The matchmaker takes 50
worth of pig-iron and converts it into hair
springs worth S2,OOO,OOO. That is what ef1iency
does with pig-iron. What would efficiency do
with your business? What every merchant
needs is the assistance of an advertising spe'
cialiSt who has studied carefully the problem OF
advertising efficiency. My years of experience
in the field of newspaper advertising is at your
service at the small sum of one third of a centan
hour. l have the only reasonable plan for news

"LEST WE FORGET

Are you member of the Cam
den Cemetery Association? If SO,
have you paid your dues? They
have been due since March l.
In the spring of 1912 there was
organized in our hustling little city
cemetery association with over
one hundred members. Interest
ran high at the time, but, it seems,
we have grown careless OF the
number that joined only ffty-four
paid their dues last year.
Can we afford TO let the associa-
ton cease to exist? No! We are
under obligations to our dead to
keep their resting place as beauti-
full as we can.
fear some expect their dollar
to do too much. Think with me
for moment. How many times
can you have your lot cleaned off
for the amount of your duese Then,
too, there are many in our cemetery
who have no one to take care of
their graves, also many of our town
who have lots there who do not be-
long to the association. All these
graves must receive attention re-
CARELESS of these facts.
Now, dear members, let me ap-
peal to you, on behalf of the COM
mittee in charge, to pay your dues.
The association can not exist with
out these funds. Don't say "my
lot is not attended to" but pay the
dollar. Then go to the cemetery,
show the sexton what you want him
to do and tell him how to keep your
lot. Some have told him not to do
anything to their lots for fear he
may destroy the flowers. For this
reason he hesitates to enter the lots
Of others, for he says II can't tell
a flower from a weed"
I'm sure you'll find him humble
and ready and willing to assist you
at any and all times. Please bring
or send your dues to me at once.
Out-of-town members, please mail
me the dollar at your earliest con-
venience
Yours, on behalf of the cemetery
association,

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID ST0MACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
BY a Stomach Specialist.

AS a specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment of
stomach troubles, | have been forced
to the conclusion that most people
who complain of stomach trouble pos
sess stomachs that are absolutely
healthy and normal The real trouble,
that which causes all the pain and
difficulty, is excessive acid in the
stomach, aggravated by food fermen-
tation. Hyperacidity irritates the
delicate lining of the stomach and
food fermentation causes wind which
distends the stomach abnOrmally,
causing that full BlOated feeling. Thus
both acid and fermentation interfere
with and retard the process of diges-
ton. The stomach is usually healthy
and normal. but irritated almost past
endurance by these foreign elements
acid and wind. In all such cases
and they comprise over 90 per cent. Of
all stomach difficulties-the first and
only step necessary is to neutralize
the acid and stop the fermentation by
taking in a little warm or cold water
Immediately after eating, from one to
two teaspoonfuls of bisurated magne-
STA, which is doubtless the best and
only really effective antacid and food
corrective known. The acid will be
neutralized and the fermentation
stopped almost instantly. and your
stomach will at once proceed to di-
gest the food in y healthy, normal
manner. Be sure to ask your druggist
for the bisurated magnesia, as have
found other forms utterly lacking in
its peculiarly valuable prOperties.-F.

Dear Peggy" Some OF the Homo

Helen Jones, Clorinda Low and Flo

fire. at about half past ten at night
and were ordered by the fire chief to
remove all their possessions at once
from the house. Girls from nearby
houses swarmed 10 their assistance
and all their goods We're dumped IN
the middle of the street whence anoth-
er crowd of girls removed them to
place or safety in a neighbUring house
safe from danger from the fire
1t was not until hast past five in
the morning that their home was pro-
nounced safe to enter once more, as
luckily a strong wind was blowing
so as to keep the flames away from

EVIDENCE OF SMALL CALDER

It very amusing to note that some of the writers for The
Opmst are peeved and represent that of their crowd
peeved because they paid FIVE dollars apiece to have their
pagn cards published in The Republican for the month of April
We don't believe there is mothers among them who
regrets the expenditure of $2 week to have his taken
to everv home in town say that he candidate for office and
will accept the responsibilities of the position they choose to
elect him. We think of them have felt embarrassed because
the fellows who busy creating An Trego sentiment have
wtted them and made them think momenta that they had paid
for editorial weups instead of the campaign cards The peoples
judgment those things good they respect for making
his the public press he 60 about his
business without loss Of time and if they knew which have
been so easily disturbed and made slight invest

THEIR THEORIES UNTENABLE

The press writers for the present city council going to
great find something with which dscred The Idaho
Republican this campaign and of the avore theories with
them say that the editor sore because certain crowd
gave him only half of the public printing that opposing
Mr. Peks election that ground If that ought
be opposing the election of Mr. Capps twice hard for when
he was elected he off of the list altogether We did get
sore about either We published of the record which
other fellows made show people how utterly lacking they
in common understanding in principle What else could the
guilty do but from the subject and that Trego
dsged and that that the only he publishing what
he does.
Seems heard making the excuses last
mer before the primary
There have been periods when received little of
the county printing and resentment shown The present
board of commissioners elected by people voting in harmony with
advice, gave the public printing the other fellow yet
made no complaints about The who making these talks
about printing simply throwing dirt the peoples to take
their attention away from the fundamental principles which
advocate in behalf of honest politics.
