CHEERFULNESS

There is no one quality that 81
much attaches man to his fellow
man AZ cheerfulness. II endears
man to the heart. not the intel
lect or the Imagination. The cheer
full man is a double blessing a
blessing to himself and TO the
world around him. In his own
character, his good nature is the
clear, blue sky of his own heart !:
to others he carries an atmosphere
Of joy, and hope. and encourage
ment wherever he moves.
IL is true that cheerfulness is not
always happiness. The face may
glow in smiles while the heart
runs in GOODNESS and darkness be-
low" but chcerfulness is the best
external indication of happiness
that we have. A man is worthy
of all praise when he does not in
trude his private griefs on the hap
piness Of his friends. but constant
" contributes his quota of cheer
fulness to the general public en-
iOyment Cheerfulness is duty
which every man owes. He should
discharge the debt faithfully.

When You Become a
CONSCIOUS" Reader
of Advertising
BY j. r. HAMILTON
Former Advertising Manager Of wsnsmskers, Philadelphia

When you learn to read your advertising you read your
news the everything you going to be lowered
for you.
If you knew how much money takes to soak idea into
your mind ubconcou you would be ashamed of your mind
1t actually takes long sometimes to get you to
think and say certain word.
It's like teaching baby TO talk.
Every known trick of psychology brought to bear you
Advertisers have print their advertisement
upside down. hoping perhaps that had to stand
head to read it you might remember what they say.
And what you receive with your will the
your records spite Of So that 96 Of what
you through advertising whether you know not
And yet the face of all this the advertising method Of
selling things twenty times cheaper than any other method
known.
Think how cheaper still would be il you would only
read advertising consciously instead Of buying through 1T
The merchant who doesn't advertise hasn't chance
with the who does.
Your taking photographs every time you turn these
You couldn't get from these advertisements
tried Even the who claims not to them at all record
ing them all the time Every merchant who appears here Is
telling his story every day whether you know il not
All trying do is to make you conscious readers Of
advertising instead of subconscious readers This being done
equally for your benefit and for
Every time look for the advertising in this paper instead
of making look for you bring your Of living you
the buying of and get better
quality for the price This because the who advertise
the They the who The
others flicker up for little while and then That's the
proof
On the other hand every time we get hundred more Of
readers day with conscious mind the adve
well the general make this better
medium advertisers We give them for their money
because give them your will
And before through subscriber have will be
reading his advertising consciously day by fear For
this is another psychological law.

GIVING

This is great subject. The
Bible contains many passages on
giving, and giving cheerfully
Emerson has written q great essay
on it, and countless other great
men have spoken of its bless
ings. God himself has set the ex-
ample for bOuntiful giving.
Strange tho it may seem, the
giver derives as much happiness
from whOle-souled, spontaneous
giving as the receiver. You may
think this a beautiful theory and
not practical. but just try it once.
Try giving part of your time or
words to the happiness and well
fare of your neighbor. Do not give
the services grudgingly. but give
them gladly with your whole soul.
and you will find. perhaps to your
surprise. that you will be richly
repaid, in temporal as well as spirit
ual goods.

EFFECT ON SILVER

(Continude from Page Two)
The Pittman bill will add 81 cents
to every ounce of the silver content
of these millions of tons of visible
r over the average price received
by the company during 1916-17.
and this 81 cents is additional pro,
fit.
"In none of the famous old silver
districts is there as much ore in
evidence of better than $40 value
as in Eureka, and in o n of them
is there as much virgin ground suf-
ficiently opened to prove the pre-
sence of profitable ore in large
quantities. 1t may be accepted as
a fact that the world must look to
these old districts for any increase
in silver supply and it must come
from pres once too low in grade
to work and from the h~igh-grade
pres additional development will
disclose.
