advertising that pays.
It seems in lif exceedingly dilllotii:
for :i iit>mlwi- of g.1 business men tu
g.-i Hi., right i.l.-t. concerning tt.lv. i t Is?
ing. When business is brisk and sails
nr.- large they make their great, si ef?
forts in ihe .lir.-eii.' placing their
goo.ls before Ihe puhlie. The propel
th.y seems t.. be embodied in the fol?
lowing article recently published in
??In .lull times tie- progressive busi?
ness man arranges his counters more
aitra. iiv.lv. piles bis goo.ls higher
than usual, ilecorai, s his whitlow's
burns more gas.. brushes up every?
thing, puts a new . ..at of ptiinl ..;i Ihe
outside ami a smile .he insi.le, dif
. fuses his enthusiasm in -v. ry clerk, ad?
vertises more extensively, ami gels i"ho
bulk of lie- trade. Imll lime- mlv.-r Is?
ing . is educational, ami is of liu- suc
nieni which is sure lo win. perhaps in
ihe present, hut sur.lv in Ihe Inline.
In dull times, evcrvli.ulv is looking for
'th.- man who is doing well, lor his no?
tion is cheering, ami people become re?
ceptive io his arg.ids. giving him
the prefer, nee ami buying of him."
Common sens, and experience both
sanction this view of th,- matter. The
lime p. make a special effort lor bus.,
iness is when times are dull and sale-,
are slow, if a business man has any?
thing v..alii bringing to the alt.-mion
ihe public adverliing pays at all I lines,
but never such large dividends as at
lb.- tine- when it is iinpostblc to secure
th.- normal amount of trade by any ...th
One great mistake made by some ad?
vertisers is that I hey expect entirely too
much from Die amount Ihey spend in
advertising. Instead ..r Inking account
of ib.- sales Hint may h.- accurately
traced to a given advertisement and
estimating til.- per centage of profit
gain.-.] on the money invested in that
direction, lin y spend I'm- or teil dollars
in an occasional spasm of piil.Mi ii y and
because they fail i.. reap a hundred
dollars |in'ttij for tie small investment
they have made. One only has jo take
into consideration the lark.- number of
grow;i enormously wealthy. mil
ihioiigh any special merit in lie- ... la ?
dies they sell, inn simply through judi?
cious advertising, to realize thai an in?
telligent use of newspaper space does
pay. If humbug quacks find ii profi?
table lo keep tln ir quackeries before
lb.- public all the year around it seems
reasonable to suppose that the business
man who depends upon Ihe in rits
his wares to gain trade and reputation
Would also find thai publicity pays.
Town Topics is authority for th
statement :h.-.t .Mr. Theodore Rons-well
will not receive the nomination for gov ?

onable to beli.-ve that .Mr. Plait will do
all in Iiis power to defeat tie- popular
Hough Rider, l.ui thi question which
naturally arises is: "Can Mr. Platt
turn aside the huge tide of popularity
whi.-h has s.-i in toward Ho- doughty
colonel?" If I..- can he is a larger man

J. A. MASS IE,
of your best friends and more, you
hay.- missed tiie comfort that can only
lie had from the use of gas fuel, which
luings delight and happiness wherever
it is in use. Talk is cheap you may
say and a gas man must "gas." and
who can blame him. He knows a good
thing?lie wants to push it along, and
he is willing that his friends should
share in the procession. Generous soul
that lie is. he gives Iiis advice free. It
is no trouble to sing tlie praises of gas
for fuel and as for light, its beauty
shines so he who runs may be impress?
ed. Gas for fuel at $1.011 is the cheapest
fuel if it is economically used. Are
you economical ? You are prudent and
wise. Therefore get a gas range. Wfc
will tell you something next week
about heating that will surprise you.
Call No. 34 on either phone if you can
not call. But come if you can.
