Lyman Abbott in the Outlook.
i have faith in my fellow men. j
believe in their honesty of purpose
and their competency of judgment
II have seen them take up great ques-
tons of national policy, one after an
other, and decide them Alright, some
times overriding their leaders in so
doing. They have endured four years
of terrible self sacrifice in order 10
preserve the Nation intact and set il
free from bondage; they have given
away millions of acres of their lands
to foreign immigrants who promised
to dwell upon and cultivate them,
recognizing the truth that the wealth
OF nation consists not in its soil but
in its people; they have denied them
selves the right to purchase their
! Goods in the cheapest market that
they might make America an indus

voted to pay the Nations debts i'm

(-saved millions Of dollars by paying
them in silver; they have taxed them
selves year after year for an ,expen-
sive system of public education be-
cause they recognize the value to the
Nation Of brain power in its humbles
and lowliest citizens; they have voted
| to carry on a war for the succor of a
feeble nei3hbor, and have brushed
aside impatiently the protests alike OF
materialists, who argued that it did
not pay, and of timid idealists, who
feared that it would convert the Re-

Advertise.

The foolish ostrich who thinks that
it is safe from the pursuer if it hides
its head in the sand is very much
like the business man who thinks he
can save money by cutting Gown ad
vertising.
Ever since people in this country
commenced to worry about the war
and neglect their own business, as
great many business men have done,
there has been a general disposition
turers and others to ourtail their ex-
penditures for advertising in all forms
but especially for newspaper space.
The cut in advertising was made by
many concerns even before business
|fell of, as precautionary measure.
In some instances advertising was
curtailed to minimum just to get
ready for eventualities, without any
good reason, like making an effort 10

There is nothing more foolish that
d merchant, WIZ l1dS SOouS " sell "
the public, can do at any time, than
to stop advertising. 1t is quite cer-
tain that if business is bad to stop
cry dollar spent wisely in newspaper
advertising will make it worse. Ev-
displays brings far more than dol

1t is more important to advertise
now than it ever was before, because
there are great many people i'll the
United States who never have had as
much money before, but who are roll
| ins in wealth now as a result Of the,
war; agents, contractors. dealers in
war supplies, and workmen in thc big
munition plants. If you want these
people to speRd their new money with
| you, you must advertise to make them
do so.
This applies equally to theatrical
advertising. People who have never
patronized two-dollar theater before
in their lives are coming down to
Broadway wondering what show they
will so. to see and you may be sure
they will 20 to the show OF which
