The Men Who Succeed as heads of large enterprises are men of! great energy. Sucecss, today/ demands health. To ail is to fail. It’s utter folly for a man to ensure a weak, run-down, half alive condition when Electric Bitters will put him right on his feet in short order. “Four bottles did me more real good than any other medicne ever took.” writes Chas. H. Allen, Sylvania, Go. “After years of suffering with rheumatism, liver trouble, stomach disorders and deranged kidneys, 1 am agbin, thanks to Electric Bitters, sound and well.” Try them.

Prescription for Eczema I can say that now there is no sign of that Eczema and that was three years ago.” This is but one of thousands of cases in which D. D. D. has simply washed away the skin trouble. D. D. D, cleanses the skin of the germs of Eczema, Psoriasis and other serious skin diseases; stops the itch instantly, and When used with D. D. D. soap the cures seem to be permanent Nothing like D. D. D. for the complexion. Trial bottle 25 cents, enough to prove the merit of this wonderful remedy. We can also give you a full size bottle for SI.OO on our absolute guarantee that if this very first bottle fails to give you relief it will cost you nothing. B. F. Fendig, Rensselaer, Ind. Postponed

Advertising Talks

ADVERTISING RELIGION National Evangelization Movement Likely to Use Newspapers Soon In Pushing Campaign. While the early announcements of the men and religion forward movement intimated that it was to be accompanied by a vigorous campaign of advertising in newspapers and magazines, not so much has been heard recently of this feature on which such emphasis was laid. No doubt the plan has not been abandoned, but its execution is being delayed until arrangements for a systematic scheme of publicity can be perfected. Everybody now believes that advertising is the foundation of success in business, says the Pittsburg Times. Why, then, may it not be equally as efficacious in other spheres of activity? The prime requisite for making publicity profitable is the advertiser's ability “to deliver the goods." The greater the merit of the advertised article, the easier to create a permanent demand and the larges the dividends from the investment in publicity. . Sk There is a cumulative - profit from advertising the meritorious article, since the purchaser without further urging will return for more of the same kind. Therefore it has come about that genuine, high-class goods, guaranteed by makers and dealers, the sort the public can depend upon, are the most widely advertised and enjoy the largest sales. Is there any inconsistency, jhiy irreverence in thus effeqtiveljf'trroclaiming the benefits which men may derive from religion? The present generation has witnessed the rise of the great institutional church which, as regards the perfection of its system, prides Itself on being run according to modern business methods. With Its numerous departments and its complicated finances it could not be conducted in any other way and be a success. The executive personnel of the institutional church tnust include a business man of ability. As the directing head he is confronted dally by problems analogous to those met by the big financial or manufacturing corporation. Why should he not bring to his assistance the modern science of advertising? And if advertising is a ,legitimate aid of the individual church It surely may be employed by the churches acting in concert, such as Is exemplified by the men and religion forward movement.

Religion’s appeal is to no one class or sect or faction. It is to all men. The church reaches them on Sunday, perhaps. Advertising will reach them every day, in their homes and offices, in street cars and on trains. And this is why we may soon expect to see the latest national evangelization movement utilizing this iqost influential of forces awaiting Its command.

The home is the common target at which all advertisers are aiming. That medium is best for the general advertiser that goes nearest to the home life, which is most essential to the home living.

As 1 opened the door I saw a man with a burglar’s mask kneeling before the safe. The next moment he had turned and shoved a revolver Into my face. “Throw up your hands!” he said. I did so. w

"You understand,” he remarked, pleasantly, "that I can in the present circumstances loot the premises at my leisure?” I confessed that he could. “You realize that you are at my mercy?” “I do,” 1 replied. * "You acknowledge that I can blow you to kingdom come if I like?” he persisted. "Certainly,” I admitted. i "Well, then,” he said, "you will be interested to* know that I got in without difficulty through your parlor window. Had it been equipped with Smith’s patent safety burglar alarm and preventer this could not have happened. Installed complete with batteries, for ?10.50. Allow me to hand you circular. Good night, sir.” Then he withdrew.

Why Delay?

A small tailor in the Twin Cities has a head for advertising. In front of his store stands an, oil barrel with the head knocked in. The barrel is bright green and on it in red letters is painted: “Stand in my barrel while I press your suit for fifty cents” Zenith.

WHAT HAVE YOU TO SAY ABOUT TH!S?

To the People of Jasper County: “THIS TELEPOST MUST BE CRUSHED OUT, REGARDLESS OF THE COST.” In these words a prominent Wall Street financier announced that the "Interests” had declared war on us and on you. Why he wished to crush it, —the many attempts to ruin it,—why they failed,—the great benefits of the felepost to you and to the entire country,—and how, with your co-operation, it can never be crushed, — prompt me to address you. It concerns you. It is your fight as well as ours. The Telepost is an independent telegraph company owning a system of automatic machine telegraphy recognised as the highest development to date in its field. It is in active commercial operation between Chicago, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Louisville and other cities of the Middle West, with the lowest rates and best service ever given in the United States. Its purpose is to extend these advantages to all parts of the country. It gives a flat rate, r .gardless of distance, of one-quar-ter cent to one cent a word, according to service furnished. It sends 1,0 .□ words a minute on one wire and allows telephone conversation over it at the same time. By all other methods it requires from seventeen to sixty wires to do what the Teiepust does on one. ' For over thirty-five years there has been no teal competition in telegraphy. The Interests behind this utility control it mon completely than the Steel, Beef, Tobacco and Oil Trusts control their respective lines and products. By i leans of “Gentlemen’s Agreements,” admitted under bath to the New York Legislature, they have stifled, competition, extorting, according to former Postmaster-General John Wanamaker $100,000,000 from the 4. eople in exorbitant charges for an indifferent service. The purpose of these “Agreements” js to maintain present high charges, and to block the introduction of any better system by others The methods employed to destroy the Telepost have been notoriously unfair, and un-American:—Spies dogging the footsteps of visitors to our offices; men of prominence, associated with us, threatened; employees bnb ? d _ to b e tr ay us; timid shareholders stampeded into sacrificing their shares; oiir wires mysteriously cut, and our customers urged to leave us. Periodicals, ’ and other pubheations, in alliance with the money powers behind the telegraph interests, have maliciously attacked us in order to discourage popular support for our enterprise, in much the same manner as they did Alexander Graham Bell when he introduced the telephone. ’ • With the low rates of the Telepost, the wires will be used almost as freely as the mails. We plan to build a line from our terminal in Chicago to New York having secured entrances into both cities and practically all of the right-of-way. This line will pass near your town, with which we shall ultimately connect it. The New York-Chicago line wiil put the Telepost on such a solid and big dividend-paying basis that extensions to all parts of the country will rapidly follow The opposition has declared that it will make it impossible for us to build this extension by PREVENTING OUR GETTING THE MONEY NEEDED. In thk they do not reckon on your having anything to say, and seemingly forget that the original telegraph lines 'were built,—not by Wall Street,—but, with profit to them'dves, by the merchants, farmers and small investors of the country who were independent of capitalistic

However determined the “Interests” may be to step its we want you to help qs show that in spite of Wall Street opposition there is enough man.icod ano civic pride in this country to insure the completion of a monumental work of this kind without eiihei the help or sanction of any moneyed combination, however powerful. There is more telegraph business between these two cities than between any other two citieq in the world Our lower rates and better service will give us the bulk ox tins inofitable business. The old line companies estimate tne average cost to them per-message to be aoout thirty cents. On the same volume of business the cost to the Tekpost would be only eleven cents over sixty per cent. less. Thus with the people behind us our position m this fight is impregnable.
