is confirmed in an action brought for 8
that purpose, it being understood and
agreed that nothing in this guaran-
tee shall apply to or bind the party
making the same, his heirs, executors,
administrators and assigns
Before newspaper accepts an adver-
tisement nowadays, it is censured the
same as an interview with General Jof-
fer, and if an advertisement comes IN
from a shoe manufacturer with his
picture on it, they send a reporter to
make sure that the Teller is bald like
his photograph claims he is, and it he
isn't they wouldn't print the advertise
ment till the manufacturer comes down
and signs his name in the presence of
the managing editor, the art editor,
two prominent clergymen and hand
writing expert.
"Aber what couldn't understand is:
Why should a manufactures suppose it
helps the sale Of his shoes to advertise
'em nit a picture of a bald-headed
man, even supposing he does look that
way?" Zapp said.
'tFor that matter, Zapp, my wife's
brother Sig as a young Teller used to
rub taIcum powder on his upper lip,
because he thought it would make
grow for him mustache like the fell
Ter on the box" Birsky said.
"Was there any such claim on the
box besides the picture?" Zapp asked.
No. Birsky said, ''but Sig had just
come over from the old country and
couldn't read English.
"Well, all could say is he is lucky
he didn't want to raise a bald head in

stead of mustache," Zapp replied,
because he would of been set back at
least $3.50 for shoes instead of twenty
cents for talcum powder
"A fe1ler who thinks he could get
bald headed by wearing any particular
brand of shoes SHOULD ought to get
stuck for $780," Birsky said, never
mind he couldn't read English"
"Well, that only goes to show how
careful newspaper should be if it
doesn't want it's readers to be swim
died." Zapp said. "Some people which
is too foxy to believe anything they
read in the news section Of newspa-
per gets fooled very easy by advertise
ments. They could read it in the paper
how seals has become so scarce that if
all the seals in existence was divided
up among the inhabitants Of the State
of Kansas there would be only .00062
seals to an inhabitant. Also they could
see in a Sunday paper how the Secre-
tary OF Commerce and Labor gives out
an interview that the United States is
keeping line of battleships in Alaska
to prevent poacherS from killing seals,
Birsky, but that owing to the high
price Of sealskins in New York, the,
poachers takes chance on getting
shot, starved, frozen and drowned and
sometimes catches as many as twenty
eight and half seals in season,
y'understand, and yet, Birsky, when a.
concern by the name of the Paris and
San Francisco Fur Importing Company
advertises fur overcoats with Batfin
Bay Seal lining and genWine Prussian
Lamb collars at from $500 to $21.5O
apiece, them newspaper readers figure

and Labor know about seals anyway.
Maybe they figure that way, and
maybe they figure that the Teller which
is running the Paris and San Francisco
Fur importing Company is just some
poor goose that has got ahold OF line
of seal oyercoats and don't know their
real value, Zapp, and never mind II
the feller WOULD have a wife and
family depending on him, Zapp, that's
HIS lookout. If he is fool enough to
let them seal-lined Overcoats go at
from 1899 to $21.5O, he shouldn't be
il the fur business if he don't know no
more about furs than that; so they
buy an overcoat off Of him, Zapp, just
to teach him lesson as it were.''
Sometimes they also figure that the
reason why the Paris and San Fran
cisco Fur Importing Company could
sell genwine sealskins at $500 is that
the overcoats was stolen, Birsky,
Zapp said, $50 they go to work and buy
'em on the principle of what the eye
don't see it, what is it the hearts bust

"Then what is the use of newspapers

Cardui Wins Suit.

After a trial in the United States
District Court of Chicago, before Judge
Carpenter and federal jury, the jury
found the American Medical Associa-
ton guilty of libeling Cardui, the won-
ans tonic, which they had denounced
as 'nOstrum."
This is a yindication of the medicine
and a proof that it has merit which
was recognized by jury after a trial
of three months, one of the longest
civil cases on record.
Many doctors and chemists testified
on both sides and the evidence totaled
nearly four million words.

and not only does all her troubles come
back on her, but she thinks she is also
developing peculiar pain in her side. !"
Maybe the advertisement give it to
her." Birsky suggested.
"Sure it did, Zapp replied. 'This
here first-to-last- the-truth advertise
ing is driving women to moving pic
lures, Birsky. Another thing is the
way drygoods stores is acting nova
days. Former times woman buys a
dress at a drygoods store on April End
and wears it up to and including July
18TH, when she brings it back with
symptoms of a beefsteak supper, two
weddings and chocolate nut sundae
on the front panel, Birsky, and for the
next. six months she has the time Of
her life trying to get a credit check
for it. It gives her fresh interest IN
things. Her eyes get bright and her
cheeks is got fresh color in them the
same like an advertisement for COM
plexion cream before the enactment OF
Section 31416, Subsection A, of the
Penal Code in relations to False and
Misleading Advertising. What is 1t
nowadays, Birsky? A crepe de chine
dress could have enough soup spilled
on it to make it look like MORE We
lour, Birsky, and when woman re-
turns it with the pleasant expecta-
tons Of never being so insulted in her
life, Birsky, before she could even
open her mouth to say .Listen!' yum
derstand, the floor walker pulls
credit check on her."
"And suppose" Birsky commented,
''for the next few days she walks
around looking so doynhearted that
whenever her lady-friends see her they
go home and practically throw the
meals at their husbands and gives as
an explanation that they'd like to see
themselves worrying themselves to
death over any man."
"Well, I'll tell you" Zapp said, "may-
be the drygoods stores is getting done
on their money back guarantees,
Birsky, but that's because they are suf-
fering from the fact that people amt
acquainted with up-to-date advertising
fdees. Their customers still thinks
that when a drygoods store says:
> If anything you buy here proves un-
satisfactory it will be exchanged or
your money will be refunded
Birsky, it must be understood that
such a guarantee means:
If anything you buy here proves I'M
satisfactory by the evidence of six
uninteresting witnesses which a crack

couldn't rattle on cross-examination,
it will be exchanged or your money

Birsky, wouldn't advertise my goods
in paper which also accepts adver-

figure that if bargain hunter wouldn't

THINKS he could get a 500 overcoat
for $21, he would go to an advertised
store where he really and truly could
buy a 500 overcoat for 500, or any
how $11O.5O.. So you see, Birsky, CEN
suring advertisements is really for the
benefit of the advertiser and not for
the Teller who reads 'em.'

The fact that both gangs of

are now waiting trial is evil
dence that Sheriff w. J. julius
is on the job. The telegram sent

that the three men, brought

man Jahnke, and held for the
burglary at Comfrey, are men,
bers of the gang, which has
been pulling off all the burglar
les in this part of the state and
Iowa during the past several
years. He is of the opinion that
this gang burglarized the Ochs
and Crone stores, and are also
responsible for burglaries in
Springfield and other nearby
cities and villages, which have
kept merchants on the qui vive
the past several years.
He states that they are men,
bers Of the famous Daley gang
of burglars, who operate from
Sioux City, and are ken-known
to all officers of the law in this
part of the country. Sheriff
WheatGey states that Art Hen
derson, one of the three in the

the gang and is a daring and
resourceful burglar. His broth
er, known as Kraus, and Burns
are known all over the western
part of Iowa and are as smooth
