INDIRECT RESULTS.

Besides having a number of direct
results upon the success of business,
good advertising has also an indirect
influence that Is interesting to note.
One of these results is the creation
of a reputation which in turn produces
confidence. The good advertiser be-
comes known wherever his printed
messages go and he acquires a repu-
tation not merelysas an advertiser but
as persistent worker for business.
And then in time the steady, regular,
periodical appearances of his adyer-
tisements create a sense of perma-
hence and stability and desire on the
part of the reader to become more
closely associated with the advertiser.
The continuous appeals to the reader
to come in and see this or "come in
and try that" soon meet responses and
gradually the reader forms the habit
of going to Mr.. Good Advertisers place
of business because he knows there
is always something of interest there.
BY and by he goes there for the fill
ing of all his needs in that line and
good advertising has made another
convert.

DEEM PICTURE OUT OF PLACE
British Authorities Request Removal of kaiser's Portrait From
 Tonga Kings Palace.

Germany's interesting relations with the little kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific are recalled by recent incidents there. A few years back a life-size portrait of the kaiser mounted within a massive gilt frame was pre- scented by the German government to King George Tuboa II, the present ruler of the archipelago. Forthwith this picture adorned the walls of the wooden palace at Nukualofa, the cap ital of the kingdom. Germans-who, shortly before the war, were rather conspicuous in Tonga--were wont to admire the painting when they came to pay their respects to King George. Moreover, close at hand were bustS of Emperor Frederick of Germany and Prince von Bismarck. So delightfully."- informal in many ways is the Tongan ice as hat racks on festive occasions. But not so with the present from the "All Highest" But alack for the big picture of the kaiser in little Tonga !! After the war had been in progress for some time the fact of it's existence and whereabouts came within the purview of the British government and that government requested the Tongan gov ernment to remove it from the palace. The pith of this request was that Ton ga is British protectorate. But not withstanding Tonga is British pro7 tectorate it is the last Independent kingdom in the Pacific and it brides itself on having not only a monarch but cabinet and parliament.-New York World.

COULD HEED CALL OF WILD
Being His Own Boss, This Lucky Man Listened to Appeal and Hied Him
 to Happiness.

A flock of geese, northward bound, honked wildly in their flight. His feet on his desk, his window open to the breezes of the morning, he heard the call. For an hour he sat amid the con fiicting sounds of great city hurrying about it's work. But his thoughts were miles away. His eyes were dreamy. The spell of the wild was upon him.
 He wandered in fertile fields awak- ing to renewed life. He beheld the meadows lush with grass. He sat be- side wide flowing rivers and tiny brooks whose waters rushed in foamy splendor from hilly heights above. He wandered to wooded slopes, with trees aloud and wild flowers peeping from beneath dead leaves. A peace was his which seldom came in his workaday existence in the land of pavement and beehive dwellings, He dreamed on. Brook trout in speckled splendor rose to his captivating hook. Camp fires lit the darkness of his dream night. The odor of burning pine wood and of sig zling trout and bacon filled his nos trils. He ate food such as his city chefs had never learned to cook, with an appetite his city stomach had long since lost. In a single hour he dreamed more happiness than had been his for a decade.
 He closed his desk. Another hour found him grubbing in the recesses of the attic. By noon, clad in beautifully ancient garments, with satchel in his hand and a fishing rod carefully in cased in waterproof cover under his arm, he was at the railroad station. A half hour later he was on his way to the wilds. And smile such as he had not smiled in months graced his fea- lures.
 Lucky man He was his own boss Milwaukee Journal.
