Government Advertising.

If the United States Govern

space this spring, and particu-
larly will it advertise its require
ments in country newspapers,
for it is from the country must
be drawn the Drawn that will
rally to the flag in time of nation

England has demonstrated to
the world what newspapers can
do for a government in times OF
stress. No other lesson need be
learned. The newspaper gives
to the government hundreds OF
thousands of dollars in free
space every year calling the at
tention of the public to various
government needs and accom-.
plishments. Now comes the
time for paid display advertising,
The government is already con.
vinced of the efficacy of news
paper advertising. Indeed, q
board of advisers has been con.
sidered in this connection.

appointed to represent the
country newspaper in outlining

Edison's Wager.

1t was a wager that set Thomas
Alva Edison on the road to fame
and fortune. When he was a
telegraph-operator much annoy
ance was caused by cockroaches
getting into the tin cans in which
the boys carried their lunches.
Various methods of getting rid
of them were tried, but without
success, and then Edison made\a
bet that he would exterminate
the foe.
The next'day the dinner cans
were piled in a heap and the
wizard surrounded them with a
circle of tin foil ribbon about an
inch wide. About a quarter of
an inch away he placed a similar
circle, both ribbons being upright
and then connected them with a
battery. Along came the cock
reaches. To surmount the OBJ
stacle they had to place their
hind legs on the outer ribbon and
their forelegs on the. inner one,
The moment they did so the cir
cult was completed, and they
toppled over dead. Edison's sue
cess made him talked about, and

The Northwest (Pa.) Leader.

Mr.. Early was an elderly lbach-
elor. He had grown weary of
living alone and determined to
marry. For a long time he had
known the widow Kimball, and
he ask her to be his wife. The
question was a complete surprise
to her, and her reply was a con-
fused NO"

matter, and when she met Mr..
Early she said:
