Our rural carrier, Clarence Gulbransen, is now, nicely located with his newly made bride on the farm formerly occupied by Ed Hight and now owned by Wm. Fitzgerald, who will farm the land this year. May Clarence prove equal to the task before him. Our mail carrier came near burning out last- Friday while on his route. His stove, which was bolted to the side of the. wagon, set fire: to the woodwork and for a time it seemed that the mail wagon and all would be lost, but with well directed kicks the stove was torn loose from its fastenings and the fire put out. It pays to be a kicker sqmetimes.

“yl.. 1~~ T Advertising " •J] [Jah | P THE VALUE OF ADVERTISING Case of the Trained Athlete and the Poor Foreigner That Illustrates Power of Publicity. Provided an athlete, trained to minute, fitted out with the best money can buy in the shape of specially prepared shoes, walking sticks, loose-fit-ting and comfortable clothing and refreshments, walks across the continent in anything like reasonable time, he is given wide publicity, is wined and dined and is proclaimed a being of great endurance, determination and self-will, a thlrik-nothing-of-suffer-ing, climb over-a-barrier, set-all obsta-cles-aside sort of person, . But a man in need of work and determined to get it, probably not in the best of physical condition; short of clothes and without knowledge as to where he is to get his next meal, ,£0(11' Walk 3,000 miles, can undergo all sorts of hardships and self-denials, and he would not even be given credit for having done anything out of the ordinary.

Aside from other features of the comparison, it all goes to show what advertising will do in any branch of human existence or endeavor. When the athlete starts out on his long tramp he is advertised far and wide and the eyes of the country are directed toward him. If he fails to complete his journey he is soon forgotten, but if he succeeds, he is a hero. But in the case of the other man, he is not advertised and nothing is heard of him from one end of the journey to the other, so it does not matter whether he falls or succeeds. And the kame condition applies in other walks of life. The man who is wide awake, who directs attention ta himself by advertising, by not only blowing his own horn but having others blow loud blasts on it occasionally is more certain than is the man who starts out without a blare of trumpets or without an attempt to attract and keep the attention of the public. Recently a New "Work fireman set out from the Atlantic coast city to walk to this coast. "He was a trained athlete and made the trip in good time and got a whole lot of notoriety and considerable money out of the trip. He was advertised far and near. And recently a tailor, whose home was in Poland, received word that employment awaited him at the hands of an old friend in Redwood City, Cal. The tailor left Poland, without -knowledge as to the length or breadth of the United States and arrived in New York city four months ago. When told that he had yet to cross the continent, he plucklly set out to walk the distance, being without funds to pay his fare. He made the trip from New York city to Oakland in three months and two t weeks, doing odd jobs en route to pay his expenses. Upon reaching Redwood City he was at once employed. The accomplishment of the needy tailor, comments the Oakland, Cal., Enquirer, is more worthy of notice than is that of the athletic fireman. But the tailor’s long tramp was not advertised. For that reason he has failed to attract much attention and’but little applause for his exhibition of endurance and determination.

Newspaper Ads Will Sell Land. “To get results that are lasting and publicity that warms up the"situation in the real estate business in almost any locality, newspapers are the best; a liberal use of the classified pages and sufficient use of the display to keep the firm out of the ‘piker class’ and give dignity to the smaller ads sems to cover the field and prove the best Investment. Other schemes that are offered may seem and look rosy, but they seldom reach the public when It Is In a frame of mind to be impressed with Importance of investing in homes or in speculative real estate.” This Is the conclusibn advanced by H. B. Van Sickle* publicity expert and advertising manager for a large real estate firm in Toledo.

Because an advertlstftnent Is pretty is no reason why It should get business; , v most fellow* flirt with the pretty girls and then marry good cooks.— “Rusty Mike’s Diary.”

Frame Ads Carefully. The advertisement a man puts forth Is really his messenger and advance agent, an ambassador, if not a full plenipotentiary from his store. Nothing that it says should vary a fraction of a hair’s breadth from the truth; and It should rattier understate than attempt to exaggerate In the story It tells. The manner of It (Its tone and temper and style) will be among the things to look after And make attractive. It must not be rudely Imperative; it must not scold; it ought not to decry the rival shops that also have their announcements out—nor should It fie verbose and otherwise careless and Infelicitous in its style.

A HOLY LAND TOWN

Tel-Abib, near Jaffa, Built by Rich Russian Jews. Planned on the American Style. Its Houses Are Fitted With Modern Conveniences and Its Wide Streets Well Paved. ** No new colonies were founded in Palestine this year with the exception* of Klnereth, a large farm founded by the I’alestlrie Land Development com pany with jtjjve assistance of the.national fund, Jfyhich employs many Jew Ish laborers It is hoped that these laborers will become independent colonists by and by. Work was also begun preparing the land for the co-operative- colony of Dr. Oppenheimer, which was named Merhablah. A large number of new olive trees were planted this year in the Hazel forest, says the Maccabaean. The Agndath Netalm obtained its character from the Turkish government and is continuing to cover new land ddth all kinds of plants. Thus more and more of the arid Palestinian soil is being reclaimed to hew life. Jewish immigration Into the .cities of Palestine is much more evident. Wealthy Jews from Russia are visiting Palestine in large numbers. It is true that not all of them find the pos sibilities in Palestine which they anticipated, but many of them, who are more enthusiastic and whose desire to settle there is strong, succeeded in finding various activities and they settle there.

These Jews, who have been used to a life of comfort in Europe, have joined some of the old settlers and have founded a new suburb, a new town really, near Jaffa, which they named Tel-Ablb. This town, built on the American style, inasmuch as it sprang out as if by magic within one year of the sand of the seashore, is very beautiful. It is well planned, has wide paved streets lined with trees every house is fitted up with water pipes and bathrooms, and they are built in a specified oriental style, surrounded by a garden. It is in all something of which the Jews in Palestine are justly proud. The Arabs and the European Christians were astonished at the remarkable achievement of the Jews, and their envy is genuine. All the residents of Jaffa, Christians as well as Mohammedans,* take their holiday walks in Tel-Ablb The gates of this suburb are closed on Saturdays to prevent the entrance of vehicles, although tjiq- majority of its Inhabitants are not religloust but the Jewish sabbath is accepted by all as a holy day of rest The atmosphere in Tel-Ablb is naturally entirely Jewish, and the Hebrew language in its beautiful oriental accent is heard on every side. On the main stret, the Herzel street, that leads to the sea, was built the Gymnasia Ibrith, (the Hebrew high school) of Jaffa, a fine building in oriental style. A cornerstone was recently laid In the same suburb -for a large synagogue, which will be own ed by the Jewish community of Jaffa Tel-Ablb was built through the assistance of our national fund which granted a loan for this purpose of about a quarter of a million of francs, to be repaid with interest in Install ments.

A similar suburb is now being built, with the help of the national fund, in close pr%dmlty to Tel-Ablb. Jerusalem, too, has a few new Jewish suburbs around the old,, town built mainly by Jewish teachers for their personal use with the help 'of the "Hllfsverein.” of Germany. In Halffa also lot are being acquired by Jews for building purposes around the site of the Jewish Technical institute and "a suburb on the plan of Tel-Abib is projected there.

Triumph of Art.

Literary Boston is having a good laugh at the expense of a popular Boston author who was recently beaten by an illustrator. In his story the author went to great pains to describe the hero as having a scar on his face. When the book went to the Illustrator he drew a hero without reading the novel. When the artist’s plates were made proofs were sent to the author’, who naturally found no scar on his hero. In vain he protested that there must be a scar. The publishers said that th<e book was announced, and that ft must go to press with the pictures as drawn and that the author must take out the scar, that being the shortest way to remedy the difficulty. Still the author balked, and finally the publisher Insisted that the scar go out or no book should be published. When the novel appeared the hero was without a facial blemish. —~; ~i

Fallacy of Cheapness.

If a man buys junk, It’s a cinch he sells junk. It Is also a cinch that silks are never bought at rag prices. But almost invariably when a man buys junk he tries to fool himself Into believing he has bought a first-water diamond. He tbioks by some miraculous means the junkateer has a short cut to perfection, that the rags have been mecerlzed at least to near-sllk.—Lucas News.
