Some people have an idea that sue
cessful advertising is al occasional
freak stunt that will make people
talk. This sort of thing once in a
while will pay, because people will
talk about it--for a day or two, but
after that it is forgotten. Real re-
suits from advertising are secured
only when you keep it up week after
week and month after month, same as
got keep your body working and
growing by feeding it regularly.

erable Joseph Gibson and his wife at
the County Infirmary, Sunday. Mr..
Gibson is reported to be in very poor
health, fact which his many friends
here will be sorry to hear. While

were very industrious and in every
other way were deserving of the uni

held.
Mrs. Adah Wisner was accorded a
marked ovation at the recent County
Convention of the Order Eastern

gracefully introduced by the presi-
dent, Mrs. C. w. Taylor, who an

Of age. The marshal was ordered to
escort Mrs. Wisner around the chap

EARLY TRAINING

Economy is like a tender
plant. 1t will flourish if prop
erly cultivated, but may with
er and die if neglected. AS
good soil is most productive of
plant life while yet in an early
stage of cultivation, so is a
youthful brain more apt to
receive lasting impressions of
economy and thrift. The fact
that early impressions are the
most lasting is never disputed.
One of the old philosophers
said if he could train a child
up until he was seven years Of
age his religious views would
be so thoroughly inculcated
that no one could ever change
them. Plant the seed of saw
ing in the mind of a boy or
girl and in after years it will
bear the fruit of useful, econ
omical habits. The ideas of
saving are necessarily acquired
in the same manner as ideas
along other lines, and it is the
plain duty of the parent to in
still the proper ideas into the
young mind. The best method
of procedure is to open saw
ings accounts for the young.
sters and teach them to watch
for all the chances to save any
sum, no matter how small, to
add to this fund.

son of the late Mrs. Happy Theo-
dora Van Wyck Benner, is not salts
fed with his mothers will, which
provides that he shall receive $3.50 a

Benner, his father and guardian,
asking that the order given by that
