THE GOOD DAY.

If you have carefully read the Tribi warn the past tluref weeks, you hare Impressed by $ha number and natWa of the articles jthey have publish•dm the prosperous condition of busl&MM with local industries. There was a time when the optimists—those who believe In themselves and In the future of the country in which they live —htfve been inclined to—shall we say -^-eocaggerate the indioations of returning prosperity. At any rate, they gave them a value greater than would be

Apparent under a critical analysis. Today the optimists have so much material upon which to base their arguments that there is no need for them to look through colored glasses. Evidences of good times are to be found everywhere. They are seen in the greatest congestion of freight at ocean terminals ever known in the history or the country. Two railroads—the Lackawanna and the New York Centralhave refused to accept any more goods -for export until the thousands of cars filling the railroad yards and sidings, all the way to Buffalo, haVe discharged their freight.

Further evidences of«, prosperity are to be observed in the columns of dispatches printed daily In the newspapers from every state in the union. The New York Times on Wednesday carried reports from fifteen or more cities showing that business lis in full swing, that -the number of people out of employment has not been so small in years, and that all indications are favorable to the transaction of the greatest Volume of transactions known in several decades.

A Tribune reader writes that this government needs "to revise its laws to exterminate treason and to stamp out such individuals as strike at our liberty aM neutrality." Many people have reached the same conclusion re-: cently, but the situation hardly holds anything Which alarms. All of us, whether fdirelgn born or native born, need a new birth into patriotism. In fact, inculcation of the right kind of kmerfctiaiism is a task that requires to fee done again for esvery generation that comes upon the American scene.

Many Americans are painfully and strangely lacking in comprehension of what America means and what constitutes Americanism. America means government by the people, and not this only, but for the people. But England and its colonies also mean this. France means this. America, however, above all, means service to the whole world. Americanism is the spirit, the purpose, J.he methods which regard government a* existing for the welfare of society and American, democracy as providentially intended and directed to protect human rights and to promote social justice throughout civilization.

Americanism includes political virtue as an essential element, and democracy, the struggle for which has been

chiefly waged in modern times by men of F^nglish blood and speech, depends for its perpetuation upon intelligence and integrity in every citizen and in all classes and communities. Americanism comprises a common consciousness on the part of all that we are one body politically and that no other country nor any class has any claim as against America.

MUFFLER ON WAR.

The Ford peace party, according to the morning dispatches, found a couple of stowaways on board, but they seem to have been a couple of Scandinavians wanting to get home. This throws an interesting light on the itinerary of the peace missionaries. They will first reach Christiania. Thence they wi}l flit to Stockholm, and thence to Copenhagen. This much of the program is already decided upon. After leaving Copenhagen they will endeavor to rest for a time at The Hague, but whether they ever get that near the war will depend upon the suspicion or indifference of the warring nations.

In Scandinavia, at least, the emissaries of peace are assured of a hearty welcome. The Norwegians, Swedes and Danes have had few diversions since the beginning of the great war, and will be glad to observe the phenomenon. There will be festivals, doubtless, and mutual gratulations, and the paying of large compliments on one side and the paying of large hotel bills on the other.

But it should be remembered that December is not the usual season for visiting Scandinavia. .The Scandinavian winter is all right for the Scandinavians who are used to it but it is "very rough on systems attuned to a more temperate clime. Despite all the natives can do the reception will be cold.

It is, perhaps, altogether fitting that the expedition is to land in Scandinavia. There the weather will do what would be done by the people in countries more disastrously affected by the war.

However, there is one thought that comes. The Ford party, a dozen disinterested, unarmed persons, asking that a war of eleven nations be stopped, may appeal to Europe's idea of the grotesque, kindle realization as to the uselessness of the whole business of slaughter and depredations and actually end the war. So it may be too early to Judge the ultimate outcome.

It was Just like Bernard Shaw to precipitate himself into the Ford affair after all the best cabins were taken and the- hour of sailing announced.

A person would think that England would be tactful enough to employ some other word for "conscription" which is sparing so mahy patriots.

They claim they halve fpund an antidote for bichloride of mercury poisoning. At the same time nobody is going to be in any hurry to test It.

JBut one can't help wondering how King Constantine and Queen Sophia talk to each other when there is nobody around to listen.

Andrew Carnegie says that he has given away $400,000,000, and has oniy $20,000,000 left. Well, what is he holding out toy"!

"The allies have a surprise in store for the world," announces Mr. ^Vsquith. What are they going to do-^win a battle?

And here's a hope that playing "Ruth" will be one of the delightful memories of her young life.

Does Roosevelt want war, asks th« New York World. Want war? He it war.

"Who is Ruth?" is now settled. Christmas shopping next.

Do this once or twice a day, and you will be astonished how quickly the healing, antiseptic Resinol medication soothes and cleanses the pores, removes pimples and blackheads, and leaves the complexion clear, fresh and velvety.

If the skin- is in bad condition through neglect or an unwisevuse of cosmetics, apply a little Resinol Ointment* and let it remain on ten minutes before the final washing with Resinol Soap.

Resinol Soap Is not artificially colored, its rich brown being entirely due to the Resinol balsams it contains. Sold by all druggists and dealers in toilet goods. For free sample cake and trial of Resinol Ointment, write Dept. 3-P, Resinol, Baltimore, Md.

Pkysicians have prescribed Resinol Ointment for over twenty years in the treatment of skin and scalp affections.

TELLS CIGAK MAKERS TRADE CUD REVIVE

Citizen Interested in Discussion Over Decline of the Cigar Making Industry in Terre Haute.

Terre Haute, Ind., Dec. 5,1915. Editor Tribune:—I am going to answer the cigarmakers' question, "Why don't men buy Terre Haute made cigars?" I have watched with great interest your editorial treatment of this subject, and I believe it equal in importance to that of any industry in the city. The answer to the cigarmakers' question becomes obvious when we investigate some of their methods of selling and compare them with twentieth century ways of doing business.

Today, in this age of strenuous competition, people do not "buy" anything very often. He who wants public patronage must have the force necessary to "sell" them. The belief that making a good commodity will induce the people to come and l»uy of their own volition la ancient—the vintage of 1492.

To get smokers to use home-made cigars, the makers must first tell the smoker of their product—describe the quality, name the different brands, and impress upon the public that name— that it means goodness and superior qualities. "How may we do it?" is the makers' question. The only profitable way Is to follow the examples of foreign competitors: advertise not simply for a week or month, tout keep everlastingly at it, because it is the only way to popularize our home brands.

Modern Methods.

It is the present day method of securing business and creating a der Tnand,: and these business men who ignore it cannot survive. If, our home manufacturers ignore it they must suffer the consequences, whioh are bitter —'bitter oblivion for their products. I know of one concern (foreign) which has invested over $'2,500 in this city alone, to advertise and create a demand for one 5 cent cigar. Were its makers profited? Yes, and they profited because they did not wait for people to came and buy their cigar, neither did they depend on sentiment to draw business. These foreign makers courageously went after business, got it, beat o-ur oWn makers, in our own territory, and with an inferior article at that. Such is the result of an aggressive campaign where the powerful influence of advertising (the modern economical salesman) is used and "cashed in" on.

Cigarmakers, you must compete with your foreign competitors, not only (in making good cigars but also in "selling" them. I don't mean selling them to retailers, but to the man who smokes. Your big foreign competitors appropriate vast* sums of money to get their brands before the public. You, Mr. Terre Haute Cigarmaker, must do likewise—or siiflfer.

How. Others Do It.

If you are hard to convince, stubborn or reluctant in making this appropriation which will benefit you—your competitor enjoys the handicap ,you give him while you are making up your mind.,'If you absolutely refuse to ap-. proprlate money to popularize your brands, the scientific methods of the foreign competitor will so completely eclipse your methods that your products will be known only in that neigh•hortiood of Terre Haute where your factory is located. Briefly, you must arrange to popularize your brands. You must make up your mind to do this. You will find that a good straight forward advertising campaign, red-hot and of the "gO-get-the-business" kind, will result in a harvest of dollars greatly in excess of that campaign wherein you play-up the sentiment of "buy home-made products." 'Sentiment was divorced from business in the sixteenth century. You must advertise your bra,nds if you want fchem to survive. It's an issue you cannot dodge. Today the condition of the home cigarmakers is such that they must act, strong and quick, and strictly in accordance with twentieth century busiL ness-getting methods. If not, the demand for Terre Haute made cigars will go down, down, down, steadily, year by year, until our home brand of cigars will exist only in the sweet quiet memories of those who knew not progress. JOHN W. COX'N-ER, 111 North Eighth street, city.

TEERE HAUTE TRIBUNE.

NOTES OF THE RED MEN.

Well, did you see that big parade of the real Americans last Saturday night! Some parade. The Red Men demonstrated they, are real live fellows when they want to be.

That long talk of Great Sachem McConaughy was a thriller and it left an imi pression that will be lasting. The braves are now on the hunt in earnest so

pale faces will have to keep well under cover if they are not captured. The working of the chief's degree by Manataka tribe of Staunton was the best seen here for a long time and the candidates that received the work at the hands of that degree team will never forget the lesson taught.

Several of tlie tribes and councils are now making arrangements for their annual celebration about the first of the year. At the meeting»of Ute tribe last Thursday night a committee was appointed to make arrangements for the annual public meeting at the first council in January, which will be January 6, when there will be the raising of chiefs elect and a program of music and readings and the usual treat of good things to eat.

The Minnehaha club of past Pocahontases gave an excellent entertainment last Tuesday night at Red Men's hall and the place was full of people who' came to enjoy the entertainment.

Paconda council degree of Pocahontas council Is going to put on the play, "Down at the Husking Bee," for Sagwa tribe at its wigwam, 1245 Lafayette avenue, December 15. The play has proved a great success and is greatly enjoyed by all who see it.

Tacoma tribe had a big attendance last Wednesday night and elected chiefs for the ensuing term. Two applications for membership by adoption and three by reinstatement were received. The adoption degree will be worked next Wednesday night.

Sagwa tribe had a wigwam full last Tuesday night. A great many were nominated for the several chieftaincies and there is a spirited contest for the different stumps. The election will take place next Tuesday. Two applications for membership were received at the last meeting and a great many more are expected at the next meeting.

Wahwahtosee council had an attendance of forty at the meeting last Wednesday night. Nominations for chieftaincies were made. The degree staff is practicing for a trip to be made to Marshal], III., in the near future.

Tammany tribe had a large attendance last Monday night and chiefs were nominated. The election will be held next Monday night.

Ute tribe had a large attendance last. Thursday night and chiefs were electr ed as follows Sachem, Charles Busby, senior, R, Bergmann junior, Lester Knight prophet, Charles Schommer C. of R., G. I. ICisner K. of W., Albert Barnes trustee, Charles Houck.. Degree Master Houck is reorganizing his team and will start td drilling next Thursday night to get in condition to make a. number o| trips to nearby towns^and do the degree work for the neighboring tribes. Brother W. S. Cornell was reported improving, but Brother Arthur Corbin was reported quite sick. Brother William Sheridan had recovered from the injuries received, some time since and returned to his work.

Past Great Incohonee and the present Great Chief of Records of Pennsylvania Thomas K. Donnelly has just celebrated his fifty-fifth anniversary as a Red Man. He joined Pequod tribe No. 18 in Philadelphia fifty-five years age and has maintained his membership continuously ever since. It is little wonder that Brother Donnelly, early in life affiliated with the Improved Order of Red Men. Being a native of Philadelphia, a city hallowed on account of its close connection with the early events of our country's freedom, he is a lineal descendant of a line of patriots who saw service in the revolutionary war, tlie war of 1812 and the Mexican war, and was himself a soldier in the late rebellion. He is a grandson of. a member of the Order of Red, which,was a forerunner of the Order of Red Men. With thefee antecedents and an inherent love for country, which he inherited, and a love for the teachings of such a patriotic order as the I. O. R. M., it is little wonder that he joined the order early in life and maintained an unbroken membership. Brother Donnelly is known by a number of Indiana Red Men.

The Sagwa degree team held a booster meeting Friday night and enjoyed a feast of good things to eat. Much enthusiasm was displayed and every member agreed, to work harder the next six months term than he did the past. New officers for the team will be selected at the next meeting.

The records of the recent session of the great council of Indiana have been received.

Remember the slogan, "Forward, Everybody Help!"

T0FFEY TO INSPECT GO. B.

Toffey, of the United States army. Inspector T.offey, Captain Monninger sa.id, announced that. Jie would inspect the local militia company on February 7. Toffey praised the local company for its showing at^the last inspection, held a few weeks ago, classing it as one of the best trained organizations in Indiana.

AD cigarettes are pure, but—

purity alone doesn't make a cigarette SENSIBLE. We don't know of a single one of our competitors who doesn't make his cigarettes of pure tobacco.

But a pure cigarette, that didn't taste just right wouldn't do for you, would it?

And to be really sensible a cigarette must give you more than parity and a good taste.

Japan has a sway held to presage secret activities that may be of vital interest to the United Stktes.

Mexico is subject to a government of the stars that may delay peace and, order.

Fame and honor for one of our foreign diplomats are prophesied. This man will triumph over powerful enemies in the United States.

Danger of race riots in the middle west is foreshadowed. Sensational revelations of treachery, graft and double-dealing in connection" with some government transactions are prophesied.

Fatimas are not the or»ly cigarette that measure up to all these requirements. Ther4 are other sensible ones.

But Fatimas seem to have a big margin in their favor on their £oad taste. Otherwise they could not outsell all other cigarettes costing over 5c.

You can't tell whether they will just suit your teste until you try them.

At the same time, you can easily prove how sensible they are by these two tests.
