The Non-Advertising Merchant

The misunderstanding merchant does
himself double injustice. He gets the
penalty from two different directions.
He fails to get the business that he would
get if he advertised In the newspapers
and he encourages mail order houses to
make special efforts to get it. The mail
order houses get busy in towns where
the merchant fails to advertise, as is
shown by the following statement of the
advertising manager of one of the largest
concerns of this kind in the country:
We have bureau whose duty it is to
reach each week the country newspapers
from all over the country. There is not
paper of any consequence in our trade
territory that our bureau does not get.
This bureau looks over these papers and
when we find town where the merchants
are not advertising in the local papers,
we Immediately flood that territory with
our literature. 1t always brings results
far in excess of the same efforts put forth
In territory where the local merchants
use their local papers," This is not only
good business but it is unanswerable log
ic. OF one thing there can be no doubt:
The mail order business of the country
is run by men of brains.-Rutland News.

New Hampshire Suffraeists

The Laconia, N. H., d ,mocrat perpe-
trates the following:
Our Equal Suffrage ladies of the
Granite state are certainly more moder-
ate and gracious in advocating their
claims than their militant sisters who
smash plate glass windows and throw
brick at the male sex. During the glad
Easter season this year, the New Hamp-
shire equal suffrage ladies have been
sending out Easter cards, handsomely
colored and beautifully designed. bear
ing "A song of Easter gladness." The
scene portrayed on the cards represent
ing a very young lady seated at the foot
of a tree, clad in a very abbreviated Moth
er Hubbard gown, with bare legs and
knock-knees, the sweet child apparently
listening with rapt delight to small
blue-bird with very large mouth, perch
ed on an adjacent limb, pouring forth the
strains of an Easter carol, the burden of
which seems to be "Votes for Wo men q"
A rabbit at the young ladies' feet appears
to be listening calmly to beautiful

down the tree trunk and seems to be
inquisitively exploring the young ladies'
head, perhaps under the impression that

Looking For a Moses

With less than six weeks to the Re-
as a candidate is concerned, seems to be
still up in the air. The conditions are
unusual The Democrats have their man
and will simply go through the motions
of holding a conventions; renominate Mr..
Wilson and hope for the best. On the
other side of the house. the Republicans
seek a man. They never wanted one SO
badly, and never were so many different
qualifications demanded of candidate.
He must be "big enough to beat Will
son." He must be neither too progress
sive or too reactionary. He must not
be pussyfooter, nor yet militarst.
He must neither be too closely allied
with the Old Guard, nor have too
marked leanings toward Moosesm.
An inventory of the Favorite Sons
who have been lined up tor inspection,
reveals no man with the requirements
enumerated above. Hence the talk of a
dark horse, name and address at present
undisclosed. But the abnormal condi-
tions which face the party may develop
the man needed; one who is now to for
tune and fame unknown, and one who
may surprise the country. A real Moses
may eventuate.
In the meantime Mr.. Hughes AMI Mr..
Roosevelt are leading the race, with sun
dry and divers favorites trailing and
trying to make a commotion like a can
didate. But two-thirds of the delegates
thus tar elected are uninstructed. They
will meet the crisis with an open
mind, and on them the Republican
party must depend for the leadership
that will take them out of Egypt.

IRENE COTE, 8 YEARS
OLD, NOT HAPPY ONE
Inquiry Made by Court as to
Whether or Not Child's Pa
rents Are Suitable Persons to
Have Charge of Her-Case
Continued-C hild May Be
Placed in Convent

brought into court Thursday morning on
complaint that she was not being proper
ly cared for at her home. The parents of
the child are Mr.. and-Mrs. Joseph Cote.
Mrs. Cote being a stepmother, and they
were represented by Fortunat Beleau.
Inquiry was made by the court as to
whether or not Mr.. and Mrs. Cote were
suitable persons to have charge of the
child.

forearm bearing a large black and blue
mark was shown, and upon inquiry by the
court she testified that her father had
caused it a few days ago by striking her
three times with a leather strap. She
also said that her stepmother locked her
into closet for punishment and that
she was not allowed to sit at the table
with the rest of the family to eat. Neigh
bors of the family testified that they
never saw the little girl out Of doors eX-
cept when she was carrying firewood up
three flights of stairs. The principal
point in the fathers testimony was that
the child was a difficult one to take care
Of After the case had been gone into to
some extent the court ordered continu-
ance until 430 p. NJ. Saturday, July ..
In the meantime it is understood to be
the intention of the parents to place the

MAKING CHILDREN EAT

Nothing Is ever gained by forcing .
child to eat when it refuses food. Make
sure that nothing is being eaten between
meals to destroy the natural appetite
and if your growing child does not have
a healthful craving for good, honest
food at mealtimes there is something
the matter. Threats Of punishment Il
the child does not eat will not correct
the difficulty.
A ftful appetite in growing child,
especially if the patient spale, languid,
nervous, irritable, and without ambi-
ton, usually means that the blood is
thin. A non-alcoholic tonic such as
DR.. Williams Pink Pills is demanded.
During her teens girl lays the foun-
dation for her future health. Lack of
blood at this time may rob her of
robust, healthy womanhood. It is of
the greatest importance to administer
to girls who grow pale and weak safe
tonic and DR. Williams Pink Pills
meet every requirement of the most
careful mother. They make the blood
rich and red and it carries renewed
health and strength to every part OF the
body.
