THINKING.

Few men really think, al
though each would deny the ac-
cusation. Although man is sup
posed to be a rational thinking
animal, thinking is actually the
hardest work and the rarest he
does. We hear a thing, ordinar-
lily, and Immediately form an
opinion about it. Usually self
interest is at the bottom of our
conclusions. We are told, for
instance, that woman suffrage
is a good thing and we ought to
have law allowing woman to
vote. Do we look into the mat
ter? Do we study the argu-
ments for and against woman's
suffrage? 1t is the same with
the tariff, prohibition, the un-
ions, the Mexican situation, the
European war, in fact every
thing to do with. How much
more rational it would be to
hold up our judgment on a ques-
ton until we have had an oppor-
tunity to study it from every
angle. Then form an opinion
and stand or fall by that opinion,
until we learn something of
which we have been in ignor-
ance that might change our
minds on the subject. Not to
be open conviction is pigheaded.
Narrowness is the bane of our
whole system of civilization
Let your mind be open to every
argument, and think-think for
yourself.

IS ADVERTISING EXPENSIVE,

Advertising that is regarded
by the advertiser as an expense
is just that. There is some
thing wrong with it. Nine
times out of ten the copy has a
charley-horse. It's so weak it
couldn't move itself let alone
move others. And whose fault
is that? Advertisings? Not on
your life. It's the fault of the
man who is paying for the adj
vertising. Go to his store, and
the chances are that you will
find it slowly expiring from dry
rot. The goods will be dirty
and unkept. The shelves will be
dusty and neglected. Even the
boss will have a crouch, and the
crouch never attracts buyers.
Life is too short to waste with
the wooden faces. 1t isn't the
advertising that expensive, its
the lack of push that's behind
the failures.

no OUR READERS.

Every family in this country
is nova subscriber to various
magazines and newspapers. The
total amount of money paid for
these publications probably
amounts toseveral thousand dol
lars annually. 1t is money well
spent, of course, because we
must have something for the
family to read.
But if you can save about
seventy-fiye per cent of this
money, and still have all the pa
pers and magazines you want, it
is worth considering, is it not ?
We have made arrangements
whereby we can save this com
munity hundreds of dollars by
merely ordering their reading
matter through our office. Our
best offer is a club of four mag
azines with your own paper for
only $1.18 year.
You will find big offer adver-
tised on another page of this
paper. Look up the advertise
ment and read all about this
remarkable offer. Send us your
order right in-mail it, tele-
phone it, or bring it to us, and
we will fix it up at once so that
you can get. your magazines.
If there is anything in the adj
vertisement you do not under
stand, drop into our office some
time and let us explain all about
it. It's the best clubbing offer
wehave ever seen, an we are
anxious to have every reader
take advantage of it.

Older BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength building and blood nourishing
properties of Scott's Emulsion which is a
food, tonic and medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scott's.

naturally alarmed. Yet if she can

The life of an editor was saw
ed the other day by a silevr dol
lar in his pocket. A crank shot
at him and the ball struck the
dollar. Now should we happen
to get shot before you pay up
your subscription and there is
no dollar to stop the ball, we
shall always presume you might
have saved our life.
