TRIBUNE'S ADS
BRING RESULTS,
SAYS SHANNON
Conroy Company's Manager
Finds This Paper Alone
Sold His Pianos.
FIRST AID BROUGHT
A BUYER NEXT DAY
After the Test He Used The
Tribune Exclusively-A
Got Results.

N. c. Shannon, manager of the Con-
roy Piano Company, which had large
piano sale here, informed The Tribune
that one advertisement in this news
paper was worth more than two in the
other daily Cape paper.
"Mr. Moran, secretary of the Con-
roy company visited this city in ad-
vance of myself and my assistants, 4"
said Mr.. Shannon. "He rented the
storeroom and signed a contract for
the advertising. He contracted only
with The Republican.
"The first week we were here, We
used almost a page advertisement
every other day in the Daily Republi-
can and page in the weekly edition.
We never received a single reply. We
continued this almost another week
with the same results.
Owe then gave The Tribune, trial,
just to see if newspaper advertising in
Cape Girardeau was worth while. The
advertisement appeared in the Sun
day edition, and the following Mon
day a prospective buyer called. l
asked him how he happened to know
we were in business here. He replied:
4 saw your advertisement in The
Tribune
"That man, who happens to live at
Zalma, Mo-, bought player piano,
and as a result of that advertisement,
we sold two more. l consider that ex-
cellent results. 1t was three sales on
an So advertisement.
From that day l continued to use
the columns of The Tribune, and l was
well paid. The returns from The Tri-
bune compelled me to give the bulk of
the advertising to The Tribune"
Mr.. Shannon is now located in the
Conroy Piano store at 304 South Main
street, Poplar Bluff.

MORGAN'S ASSAILANT is
CALLED WIFE MURDERER

Cambridge, Mass, July j-Therc is
a growing conviction among the
friends of Erich Muenter, the profess
sor who killed his wife in 1906 and
disappeared that he is identical with
Frank Holt who assailed J. Picrpont
Morgan.
MineOla, L. l., July 5-The improve
ment in the condition of J. Pierpont
Morgan was so consistent throughout
the day that physicians attending him
pronounced out of danger.
Frank Holt, the fanatical college in
structor who faced Indictment under
the charge of assault with intent to
kill, this afternoon said he carried
dynamite in his suit case to throw
in the Morgan automobile if he met
the millionaire on the road. The au-
thorities are still working upon the
reported resemblance between Holt
and Prof. Erich Muenter of Harvard.
Chicago, July 5-TwO more women
relatives of Prof. Erich Muenter of
Chicago and Harvard Universities,
who slew his wife in 1906 at Cam
bridge, Mass, and fled to Mexico, to-
day identified as Muenter, Frank
Holt" the man who shot Morgan and
set the bomb that exploded in the
White House They are Muenter's
mother-in-law, Mrs. Johanna Krems,
and her daughter, Mrs. Louise Cramer.

LURE OF FISHING

Pleasure Of Photography
and Piscatorial Pursuit
Theme Of Yuan Shi Kai's
"reminiscences.

PeIzing, Dec 6-Presadellt Yuan Shi
Kali fanctfuily styles himself the fish
errnan OF the Hang River. His coun-
try home is on that stream at Anyans
in the province of Honan, about three
hundred miles south of Picking 1t
was there that he spent his three
years of enforced retirement before
the outbreaw of the revolution. In
his hours of leisure, he amused him
self with photography and took many
pictures Of the various scenes about
his country home.
A few days ago, in the heat of the
controversy which has been waged
over the monarchial movement, the
President turned to these pictures
which recalled the peaceful days pre-
the government. He wrote a note
styled "a Rustic "Reminiscences This
was translated by one of his friends,
who made 1t public. The translation
is as follows:
ain the years 1sos-1o, I was living
at Anyang to recuperate my health.
"a garden was laid out in the suburb
of the city and fine scenery always
greeted my eyes. I called my villa
The Place of Prolong1ng Ones Life
Rowing in a boat, or walking with
cane in hand I never tired of enjoy
ing the fine views Of the garden. I
spent my days there in peace, quiet
ness and perfect freedom and my life
was as happy as one can imagine. Az
ter the outbreak of the revolution in
1911, 1 was compelled to abandon this
life of ease and pleasure at the call
Of duty and reluctantly assumed this
heavy responsibility of the country.
During the last four year have
scarcely had a moments respite. Now
looking at the collection of these
photos, 1T takes my memory back to
the days which spent on the banks
of the Hank River. I sincerely hope
that If some day the foundation of
the country becomes stable and a
worthy person be found to succeed
me, may retire to mys former coun-
try villa and lead life of ease and
pleasure. (signed) The Fisherman Of

Rats Are Dreaded
BY Allies Worse
Than Are Germans

London, Dec. 6-There is a plague
of rats along the British and French
lines in Flanders and France. A sol
der describes the invasion as worse
than the Germans in a letter which
adds:
Trenches, communications, fields,
woods, houses, cellars and barns are
choked with them. We have them
holding congresses at night in the
busiest roads and giving concerts by
day in the most crowded villages We
literally march on top of them. They
breed and breed and launch them
selves into assaults on the canton
nents, like the Germans on the User.

'"They are beginning to be tortured
by hunger, and the shortage of food
makes them capable of anything. The
other morning I saw a cyclist whose
tires had been half devoured by a pla-
toon of rats. The other night some

All cigarettes are pure,
but

purity alone doesn't make a
cigarette SENSIBLE.
We don't know of a single
one of our competitors who
doesn't make his cigarettes of
pure tobacco.
But a pure cigarette that
didn't taste just right wouldn't
do for you, would it7
And to be really sensible a
cigarette must give you more
than purity and a good taste.

And it must leave you feeling
fine after smoking all day.
Fatirnas are not the only
cigarette that measure UP to
all these requirements. There
are other sensible ones.
But Fatinas seem to have
a big margin in their favor on
their good taste. Otherwise
they could not outse1l all other
cigarettes costing over Sc.
You can't fell whether they
will just suit your taste until
you try them.
At the same time, you can
easily prove how sensible

why Fatirnas sell SO fast,
