! COURT HOUSE NEWS (Continued from page 1 ) & Indiana Railway, demurrer to complaint filed. This same record was 1 made in two cases. Emma E. Webber vs. Samuel A.Webber, complaint for divorce. A summons was issued, returnable May 4. John Amspaugh vs. Noah Mangold, on note, a separate demurrer was ( filed to third paragraph of cross complaint of J. E. Mann; demurrer overruled; a separate answer by Administrator Rinehart in one paragraph to demurrer of cross complaint; a cross complaint by Rinehart against all defendants, besides three other separate answers. The grand jury is still grinding, their examinations being confined today to parties in and near Geneva. While they are apparently busy, no excitement is noticeable thereabouts. Lawyers and some lesser lights of humanity will go to Fort Wayne tcmorrow to participate in a law suit in which the Erie Stone Company and Calvin Miller failed to settle outside the confines of the circuit court. A STORY ABOUT ADVERTISING. How a New York Firm Finally Got Into Line. In New York there is a big clothing store run by Brokaw Bros. For 50 years this store has been a good one. and has prospered. But its greatest prosperity has been during the five years just past. For years, when a New York advertising solicitor would try to convince a merchant that business could not be done without newspaper advertising, the answer would be: “How about Brokaw Bros?” The firm, you see, did not advertise; did not “believe in advertising;” thought it would estrange- their select custom! thought it would cheapen their store, their business. And in spite of this fact, the store seemed to prosper. It became known as a sort of hermit store;” got its advertising through the fact that it did not advertise—and was the shining example. the hope and inspiration of the unprogressive merchants all over the land. About five years ago, BrokawBros. commenced to advertise—to advertise brightly, interestingly, aggressively. No one has observed any loss of dignity on the part of the firm—and thousands of new customers are the result. You see, Brokaw Bros, came to realize that the sort of “dignity’' which would keep a store, otherwise up to date, in a class with “standstill" and reactionary scores was not a good thing to have. The store had kept pace with its competitors in other ways. It was heated and lighted in a modern way—not with coal stoves and oil lamps. Its sen ice wajs good and modern. It had simply remained archaic in the matter of not advertising, and finally determined to be modern in that also. So that there is no longer to be found, anywhere, a store of any importance, or pretense of progressiveness, that does not gladly stand upon ■the quality and extent of Its adver- , rising that is not willing to be judged in all ways by this one test. o OBITUARY. In the midst of the harvest of ripening grain, the hand of the reaper has again been realized. A precious jewel has been taken; its place Is vacant, nothing remains but its tender memories, and the precious hope of a happy greeting in the home beyond. Flo May Myers, daughter of Charley and Lucy Myers, was born March 14, 1905. and departed this life April 10, 1908, aged 3 years, 26 days. Father. 1 mother, one brother, four grandparents, five uncles, five aunts and many others are left to mourn. How comforting the words of Jesus when he said “Suffer 'the little children to ■ come unto me and forbid them not. ifor of such is the kingdom of God.” Our dear little Flo has left us, Has gone from our mortal sight; And her beautiful glorified spirit Now revels In heavenly light. She’ll know not another day's illness Her sufferings here are all o'er; And with beckoning hands she is waiting To greet us on heavens bright shore. We are lonely, yes ever so lonely, I And our eyes are now filled with tears I As we call up the precious memories >Of these few beautiful years. We miss her, ah. constantly miss her Methinks I can now hear her say Come over dear papa and mamma, For here it is always day. No night of sorrow to trouble, No sickness nor death any more; But here In this glorified city. We shall live forever more. ■ — o— Mrs. C. C. Schafer went to Fort Wayne this morning to-spend the day. 4-'—._:■? ... -
