Pushers and Pluggers.

There is a kind of mental affin-
ity between the quality called
push" and the popular mind, so
that a person who manifests that
trait wins the popular favor.
People like to do business with
him. This explains in part why
so many business successes have
been built on newspaper advertis-
ing.
If producer or distributor
makes it his regular practice to
advertise in the newspapers, he
gains two direct advantages. First
he will sell a lot of the special
stuff that he advertises. If he is
offering things that people want,
at prices that look reasonable
and attractive, people will flock
to his store.
Second, the habit of using this
publicity conveys a general i'm
preston that a man or store
is a hustler, and is leaving no
stone unturned to get the best
possible values. Such a place of
business gives the impression that
it's enterprise and it's energy are
going to buy goods at low figures,
handle them on a minimum of
cost, and offer the public the best
the market can show at a low
price.
The existence of that impress
sion, built up through a habit Of
constant advertising, will suggest
to peoples minds that such a
store is a good place to trade at,
even when they may not have no.
ticed any announcement of bar
gains in the special article they
are looking for.
The drawing power of push
brings an increased volume Of
trade. The we'll advertised store
usually does a large business, and
thus the cost of operating and
overhead expense is low for the
trade carried on. That makes it
possible to offer low prices.
Push is as magnetic as a smile
and handshake. The store that
shows the quality by consistent
advertising wins favor by char
acteristic that appeals tremend-
ously to the American tempera-
ment.-Merrill Star-Advocate

The Weather.

Nothing is more cussed and dis
cussed than the weather.
1t requires a sudden change in
temperature, like the recent cold
wave that swept over the entire
country, to call attention anew to
it's Importance in the daily life of
every individual.
TO quote from the poet
For whether it blow or whether
it snow,
We must have weather, whether
or no"
It's time honored jest that
when all other subjects of CONVEX
sation fail, we may turn to the
weather. Whether hot or cold, it
assumes first place in more con-
versations than any other one sub
ject.
We may be interested in our ev-
ery-day tasks, the latest movie,
tax reduction, politics or whatnot,
but let an overnight change in the
weather come, we rush to the Their
mOmeter to see what the mercury
shows.
Icy blasts freeze the marrow of
the bone and the suns hot rays
bring human frailty to the melt
ing point.
The ability of the body to re-
sist extremes of hot or cold is the
thing that really counts, but the
human being is only vaguely
aware Of that fact, because he be-
lieves that his comfort depends
largely upon what the thermom-
eter shows.
The age-old superstition is no
more the evidence of the frailty
of human nature than the one
that the seasons are changing.
How often have we heard that?
Some unknown scientist, evidently
looking for publicity, averred that
by reason of the Japanese earth
quake, the earth's position with
relation to the sun had been
changed so that the United States
was 500 miles nearer the sun.
His theory held out until kind
providence in the form of a cold
wave pushed it into an untimely
grave.
Every few years the fishing
worms take a winter outing above
the ground and the fruit trees
obligingly bloom for Christmas,
but consult the weather records
any place and it will be found
that temperatures average UP
about the same, in cycles of years.
The weather is not such a tickle
old fool as most of us imagine.
Superstitious folk in the Baltic
States are alarmed over the ap-
pearance of the silk-tailed winter
thrush, known as the bird of dis
aster," They say that the birds
were thereabouts in the winter of
1872, preceding Napoleon's Rus
sian campaign and again in 1914,
preceding the Great War.
