Take Your Home PAPER

No outside or foreign paper can
possibly have claims upon you until
your duty is discharged to the local
journal. Of him who says he can get
a city paper much larger than his own
local journal for the same amount of
money we would inquire: Do the city
papers say anything about your coun-
try, it's climate. water springs,
healthfulness, soil, products, stock
raising, mills, minerals, schools.
churches, roads. bridges or other i'm
provements Nothing, Do they men
ton your public meeting, your town
and country news, and the other thou
sand and one matters of interest
which your home paper publishes
without pay? Not much. Do they
ever say word gratis, calculated
to draw to your town or county and
aid in bringing immigrants and de-
veloping the wealth of your commun-
ity? Not line. And yet there are
men who take such contracted views
of the matter that unless they get as
many square inches of reading mat
ter IN their own county paper as they
do in a city paper, they think they
are not getting the worth of their

ARE YOU GOING TO BUILD

All over the country dwelling
houses are scarce. Build a home, -
is a slogan that stares you in the face
when you ride in the cars and when
you open your newspaper, and it
rings in your ears every time you talk
to the landlord.
Are you going to build one?
You won't attempt to answer the
question, of course, until you have
capital you have on hand, how much
capital you have on hand, how much
your income will be for the next
twelve months or so, and what the
building is going to COST
You will first balance your expected
income and your expected expenses,
including in this all your overhead
charges. You will, in fact, prepare a
little budget
If you heard Of a man entering
upon a hous-b building project with
out first comparing the expense with
his expected income you would think
he was crazy.
Yet have you ever stopped to think
that the government does just that
very thing? That the national fl
nances are handled without the prep
aration of budget in advance to
determine whether projected ex-
penses can be handled without run
ming into debt or borrowing?
To be sure the government has
always gotten away with it." But it
has cost them more than it would
have, had they struck a balance
ahead of time and planned where
their money was going.

The Efficiency of Advertising.

When as the result of advertising
a business is doubled, the rent is not
commonly increased verv much. It is
not probable that the item of clerk
hire is doubled. Nor have other eX-
penses increased in like proportion.
If man is selling 5000 articles an
nually at $100 each, and if rent, clerk
hire. and other expenses amount to
81 500, he must add so cents to the
price of each article sold to cover ex
penses.
Now if by advertising he increases
sales to 10000 articles, and if costs
of doing business have risen only to
$500, the expense charge which he
has to add to nrice of each article is
reduced from so cents to 35 cents. He
can still add five cents per article as
additional profit, and then sell 10 cents
per article under prices on nOn-ad-
vertising basis.
Thus advertising reduces cost of
goods by enabling a merchant to in
crease business, and cut down expense
charge on each article sold.

Boost Your CITY.

Every town has its advantages and
should make the most of them Every
towns is peculiarly fitted for some one
enterprise more than another, and as
soon as it is ascertained what would
be most conducive to the growth and
prosperity of the place, the citizens
should take hold of the matter and
push it for all there is in it. One
man cannot make town, The news
paper can not do it. But one man
or newspaper with the help of the
wide-awake men of the place all pull
ing together can make a wide differ
ence in a place. Every man who sue
ceeds in a town is a help to it. The
more money he makes if he spends
it, the better for the community. The
larger business he builds up, the more
he advertises, the more attention is
called to the town. A man cannot
build up an honorable business in
town without helping the town. A
town cannot build up without helping
the country. The interest of one
the interest of all. The rivalry that
sometimes exists between towns in the
same county is short-sighted policy.

Home.

Cho~i h the home with infinite ten
darness. You cannot love it too much,
cor give it too much time and thot.
Remember life has nothing better to.
offer you; it is the climax and crown
of Gods gifts. Make every day of
life in it rich and sweet It will not
last long. See to it that you plant no
seeds of bitter memory; that there
will be no neglect and harshness to
haunt you in after years. Your little
ones will die and go hence with your
words and spirits planted in their
eternal nature. Sons and daughters
will go from you into the great
world, to live as you have taught
them, to be strong or weak accord
ing to the spirit you have engrafted
upon them. How you will yearn for
them whether living or dead. How
sweet or how bitter will be the days
when they prattled about you in the
home from which they have gone
foreverl So live with them and train
them now that when they are gone
you and they can look back on the
past with thankfulness and not regret.
