JUST ANOTHER INSTANCE
HERE AT HOME.

Another local business concern las
proved something we have known for
a long time; namely, that good goods
advertised in The Hustler make good
business. The Hendersonville Laun-
dry Ice & Fuel Company has been
using a 24-inch space in The Hustler
to talk coal prices to our readers, and
this morning Mr.. Wrenshall, the sec
rotary of the company. was asked by
the Hustler man whether the results
had been satisfactory. The reply was
emphaticalIy in the affirmative, Mr..
Wrenshall adding that all doubt was
removed by the fact that not only
had the number of coal orders been
materially increased but that several
new customers had cut the ad out
of the paper and brought it down with
them to the company's plant. Now
just apply a little old-fashioned COM
mon horse sense to this case. You
might think in this instance that the

vertising;" practically every man and
woman in HendersonviIle knows that
this concern sells coal, and also knows
that it sells coal of high quality and
is scrupously careful in the weight of
every load. Well. the management of
the company looked at it differently;
so they used a good-sized space for
several issues and filled that space
with some attractive prices and a few
Observation-Disclosures facts about
the coal situation. and orders on the
book prove the wisdom of the step.
The whole secret lies in advertising
and having just what you advertise.
The public invariably appreciates good
goods and honest measure, and as
naturally Is water runs down hill
patronage will flow to the business
, where honest goods and honest meth
DDS are made the absolute rule. But
it will flow a lot faster if you tell
folks about it. as it did in this case.

worth the night in the mountain, if
the blind eyes open, the deaf hear, the
lame walk, the lepers are cleansed,
the dead raised up, and the devils fee

in the path of the woodworking
God, who only can save. Prayer
brings the Spirit in power upon the
soul we would have saved. Prayer
gives spiritual illumination, to know
truth and to know hearts, so that we
live in the heavenly air. Prayer puts
us so in accord with the heart-knOw-
ing God, that He shall put into our
lips the message needed, beyond our
knowledge of thought or need.-J. C.

DRUGGIST LANDS
TANLAC AGENCY
Mayor Lincke of Nashville Write
strong Letter to Z. IL.
Drum.

Since the introduction Of Tanlac
in HendersoiVi1Ie recently at the
Hunters Pharmacy, many men.
and women of this town and immedl-
ate vicinity have voluntarily express
ed satisfaction of results from the
Master Medicine to the local dealer.
The agency for Tanlac is awarded
tn but one-the leading-dealer in
each town. In line with this policy,
E. H. Drum, North Carolina Distribu-
tor of Tanlac, carefully considered
the local field before placing the
agency with the Hunters Pharmacy.
That readers of the French Broad
Hustler may learn more of the work
of Tanlac among prominent men and
women of this State. accounts of its
results will appear from now on in the
columns of this publication.
1t is largely upon the word of such
well known North Carolinians as
Mayor M. W. Lincke, of Nashville,
that TanIac's great success has estab-
lished itself. Recently the Honorable
Mayor Lincke wrote this letter to
Mr.. Drum.
After a fair trial Of Tanlac I have
no hesitancy in pronouncing it n OF
the very best tonics and remedies on
the market. 1t is all you claim for it
and has worked such a wonderful
change in my physical condition as to
warrant my departure from an estab-
'lishad rule and 1 heartily recommend it
to those suffering with indigestion,
nervousness and a general rundown
condition. 1 unhesitatingly pronounce
Tanlac one of the very best remedies
offered the public and will convince
the most skeptical of its true worth.
Yours very sincerely,
(Signed) M. w. LINCKE.
Nervous, weak and rundown men
and women suffering from stomach,
liver and kidney ills, indigestion,
dyspepsia, sleeplessness, loss of
weight, sluGgishnes3, headache, Ca
tarrh and rheumatism will find Tan
lac the ideal reconstructive tonic.
Tanlac is sold in Hendersonville
only by Hunder's Pharmacy. tic

COOPERATE WITH TEACHERS.

The Hen~dersonville graded school
has entered upon another years work
with bright prospects, even though
they r handicapped for lack of room
and a teaching force that is somewhat
too small. However, Superintendent
BIackstock and his efficient corps of
teachers are expecting great things and
parents should stand back of them and
help out all they can. Cooperation
will accomplish much, and the organi-
zation of a Reconsideration Associa-
ton, which it is proposed to do. will
help the school greatly.

FARM-TO-KITCHEN PLAN WINS
California Changers Declare Their EN.
pertinent Has Proved 60 BE q
Success.

Success for their direct marketing
experiment was claimed by the
grangers of Sacramento county, who
have been operating their enterprise
under the David Lubin plan Of selling
farm products direct from the country
producer to the city consumer, the Sac
ramento (Cal.) correspondent Of the
San Francisco Bulletin writes. They
have expressed hope that congress
would take some action recognizing
the plan.
The Sacramento county grangers,
headed by Joseph Holmes, master of
the California state grange, assumed
the burden of the experiment.
After the first eight days Of opera
ton Holmes said:
There is no question in my mind
about the feasibility of the plan. It
presents undoubted possibilities and
would be a great success"
During the experiment the parcel
post is not being used. Instead, the
grange sends a motor car around to
gather up and distribute the products,
To meet this expense and other *
pense of operation tags are sold to
farmers at a rate that would equal the
parcel-post charges as set forth in Luz
bins bill, these rates, by the way, to
be special for farmers.
Here's how it works:
The farmer mails or sends in tags
on which he designates the products
he has for sale and the price at which
he holds them. The city housewife
mails, telephones or brings in her or
der to the central Office, paying with
coupons. The orders are distributed
among the farmers and next day the
motor a delivers the products. The
farmer receives cash to the amount o.
the coupons.
Tho grangers assert that their plaI
saves housewives from two to tel
cents a pound On all products.
