PPRINTING is the ambassador of trade. It is sent out to acquaint your customers with your business. It goes where you cannot be; it tells the story you would have told had you been able to go in its stead; it is the means by which you hope to attract attention to your house: to interest the public and secure patronage, if at all possible. In order to achieve these results and secure adequeat returns for the money invested, it is vitally essential that your printed literature have qualities. Ordinary.printing is forgetable prining. Distinctive printing impresses itself upon the mind and brings results. Qhe Courier (Printern, IByiBENjED Doane, Jasper. Indiana.

She wnntcd the young man for herself, and In awesome whispers she Imparted the Infor- ) matlon that Prudent e Smith wns knockkiwed. and would never Ik able I to stand at a wushtub or ruu up and down the cellar stairs. The young man ! was at once Impressed. He ceased to j spark Prudence on Suuday nights and t assure her that he longed to Jump over precipices for her sake, and of j course she resented It. She went about with her chin lu the air and askvd for 'no ex pinna t Ions, and so relations wete

' strained for many long months. Then j j Zabed's mother found out what was the matter with him nnd set him '

(right. The widow had lied. Zabed made It up with the girl. The doves j came back npaln and turtled, a new t date was set for the marriage, and j Parmer Smith reached out his horny I band for a hake and said:

"Znhed, gol duru your buttons, you're j pittlu' the real thing, nnd you orterj be the happiest uinn lu Woodchuck county." j Zabed was for about two weeks. ' Then Deacon Gray, who was a widow-! er and wanted Prudence for his second 1 wife, gave up some information nbout ' Zabed. When ho had sworn her to the most awful secrecy he confessed that the youns man had a live frog In his stonmch and would probably go mad within two yearn and out the throat of his wife If he had one.

Incident That Made a Man

( Qucr Kor Awhile. ' "One nittht." said a lawyer.

J whs preparing some tedious plnnl i ings which had to be submitted ( court the following morning, und. kuowing that I would need even moment of :ny time, I locked m self in a small privnto consultation room in the roar of my suit, whore no chance caller could interrupt nn I The room is very diminutive, with only one window, looking into n court, and no furniUiro except a table and two or three chairs. Well, I worked on steadily hour after hour long after the city had settled into sleep and silence. The building was so still I could hear even nn occasional mouse scamper across the floor alone. At last I concluded the task and, Eitting erect in my chair, began to stretch my cramped limbs. "As T did so my eyes happened to fall on a lighted cigar stump lying on the carpet not four feet away, and I stopped stock still, frozen with amazement. I do not emoke. I had been sitting for hours in that little locked room. I could swear that no one had entered. The window was tightly closed, yet there right at my feet lay a Half consumed cigar with a great live coal still glowing at the end. It socm1 ridiculous to confess, but a thrill of horror ran through mo like a galvanic shock. A hallucination of any kind is an appalling thing; it makes no diireroiue how grotesque or homely the subject. It carries such frightful suggestion of breakdown in one's mental engine room. "Well, I linallv summoned up

Strong Words. Big words pass for sense with Eorne people and sometimes may be very successfully ued when nothing else will answer, says an English writer. Thus when a man, in great alarm, ran to b minister to tell
