Jasper County Democrat, Volume 6, Number 49, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 March 1904 — Page 4 Advertisements Column 2 [ADVERTISEMENT]

ADVERTISING PAYS. The value of advertising in The Democrat is becoming more and more apparent. We do not claim that the paper can sell something that nobody wants, but we do say that it tells thousands of people what you have for sale or what you want to buy, and among this great number it would be strange indeed if there are not some who answer your ad. A gentleman who recently put a 25 cent notice in The Democrat, advertising some brood, sows for sale, sent us in another adv. a few days ago, and said: “My brood sows found buyers on Monday after the paper came out. All sold for good priceß.” Such testimonials of the value of advertising in these colums are very common, and demonstrate that you can carry your message to the public in no better or more effective way than through the medium of The Democrat. A Freak of Sound Wave*. “Talking about vibrations,” said an organist, "reminds me of a most peculiar fact in regard to the acoustic properties of St. James’ church here in yjfiladelphla. Before the new organ KiS Installed there was one spot in the Mar of the church where the sound waves came together in such a manner that a person sitting there could hardly hear a sound while the organ was being played. The explanation is quite simple. It seems that at this very spot the waves vibrating from each side of the church came together at uneven intervals, forming a break In the vs\ s series and neutralizing the sound entirely. Hie new organ was placed so ss to overcome this difficulty. I have seldom heard of a parallel case.”—Philadelphia Telegraph. A Happy Town. Dalton— Has never had a strike. Has two livery stables.

Citizen. The Talented One. “But what makes you think your son has any talent in this line?" asked the artist to whom Uncle Bill from the crossroads had appealed. “Waal,” replied Uncle Bill thoughtfully, “I don’t know much about these things myself, but Henry drawed a cow In Hank Brown’s raffle last month and a watch this week.”—Cincinnati Times-Star. Truthful. “Now,” said Slusher as he finished telling a long yarn, “tell me honestly have you ever heard that story before r “Yes,” said Tucker. "I have beard the story told before; but, to be honest, I’ll have to admit I never heard It told | so badly before.” War's Horrors. Mrs. Highmore—lsn’t war a dreadful, thing? Mrs. Gsswell—lt’s perfectly horrid. The papers were so full of it this morning that they only had room for five or J six lines about my party last night— Chicago Tribune.
