DIDN'T ADVERTISE.

An advertising manager at Sphinx
club dinner in New York told an ad-
vertising story.
"A man." he said, entered a shop
one bitter cold day and bought wool
en- muffler. When he opened the muf-
fier he found inside the photograph of
a beautiful girl, together with a note,
saying:
"If you are single, please write to
me-"
"a name and address followed, and
the man smiled. He was single, and
he put the photograph on his setting
room mantel. There every evening,
looking up from his book, he beheld
it. 1t was very beautiful, and in a
week he had fallen head over heels
in love.
$50 he wrote the girl. Another
week of anxious, nerve-racking sus-
pense. Then the lovesick man received
this crushing letter:
Sir: The Mary Smith to whom
you write was my grandmother. She
died nine years ago, aged eighty-six.
Your truly"
"Our heartbroken bachelor, on look
ing into this strange matter, found
that he had foolishly bought the muf-
fler from dealer that didn't adver-
tise.

county audience, upon this the last

and love Union county for the splendid
part she has played in the history
of our nation. If I knew something

speak of it. But public records is an

be his attitude, for all the people.
Many think the only place that waste
can be practiced is in the supervisors

is great waste in the management of
the cases of the solicitor. The citizen

There is waste of thousands of dol

cannot a solicitor arrange and sys-

the present solicitor for a like period

In your loneliness and desolation YOU
