PUT YOUTH ON HIS GUARD Evidently Recital of Romance Long Passed Made No Appeal to His Feelings. “Charles,” said a sharp-voiced woman to her husband in a railway carriage, “do you know that you and I once had a romance in a railway carriage?” “Never heard of it,” replied Charles in a subdued tone. “I thought you hadn’t; but don’t you ; remember, it was that pair of slippers I presented to you the Christmas be- i fore we were married that led to our union? You remember how nicely they fitted, don’t you? Well, Charles, one day when we were going to a picnic you had your feet upon a seat, and when you were not looking I took your measure.' But for that pair of slippers I don’t believe we’d have everbeen married.” A young unmarried man sitting by immediately took down his feet from the seat. —Ideas Magazine. A GOOD BET.

If you are in need of medical a'dvice, do not fail to write Professor Munyon. Your communication will be treated in strict confidence, and your case will be diagnosed as carefully as though you had a personal interview. Munyon’s Paw Paw Pills are unlike all other laxatives or cathartics. They coax the liver into activity by gentle methods. They do not scour, they do not gripe, they’ do not weaken, but they do start all the secretions of the liver and stomach in away that soon puts these organs in a healthy condition and corrects constipation. In my opinion constipation is responsible for most ailments. There are 26 feet of human bowels, which is really a sewer pipe. When this pipe becomes clogged the whole system becomes poisoned, causingl biliousness, indigestion and impure blood, which often produce rheumatism and kidney ailments. No woman who suffers with constipation or any liver ailment can expect to have a clear complexion or enjoy good health. If I had my way I would prohibit the sale of nine-tenths of the cathartics that are now being sold for the reason that they soon destroy the lining of the stomach, setting up serious forms of indigestion, and so paralyze the bowels that they refuse to act unless forced by strong purgatives. Munyon’s Paw Paw Pills are a tonic to the stomach, liver and nerves. They invigorate instead of weaken; they enrich the blood instead of Impoverish it; they enable the stomach to get all the nourishment from food that is put into it. These pills contain no calomel, no dope; they are soothing, healing and stimulating. They school the bowels to act without physic. Regular size bottle, containing 45 pills, 15 cents.

Advertising pTalksq HONESTY IN ADVERTISING False Impressions Created Liable to Have Damaging Effect—Policy of Non-Comparative Prices. A false impression given to a prospective customer, if not actually preventing a sale at the time, is quite liable to have some damaging effect later on. There, is a degree of conservatism in advertising, however, which has recently come to our notice that appears at first thought to grow to an extreme. One of the large stores of Boston, says the Dry Goods Reporter, has the following to say in reference to its new advertising policy: “Is all merchandise advertised with comparative prices sold for less than it is worth? Let us see. The following item is taken from an ad. In Boston: ‘Lingerie shirt waists, wcxth s'. ' for $1.95.’ Does this mean thi-t the- ; merchant could get $4 for tew waists, but prefers to sell them $1.95? Impossible. Does it mean that the waist looks enough like a $4 waist . to pass as one with an inexperienced i observer? Probably. Does it mean ; that the waist is a copy of a $4 model , —cheapened in materials and w<yk- | manship to a $1.95 standard? If so, this explanation should in all fairdess be made. Or is it an unqualified exaggeration to mislead the reader? If so, it is ‘price faking,’ a practice unfair to the buying public and tending to lower the standard of confideiße that should exist between buyer and seller. The policy of non-comparative advertising originated by the James A. Houston Co. does not admit of ‘price faking.’ ” A similar attitude on advertising has been taken by a cloak and suit firm of New York. This firm reports that when the policy of omitting comparative prices was first announced, i the response was not as great as had been expected, but that now people are beginning to understand and appreciate, and that the business is growing rapidly. The store does not even quote comparative prices on its own merchandise upon which bona fide reductions have been made. The store recently had its first clearing sale early in the season. No comparative prices were quoted and in explanation of this the following appeared in t>e ad.: “We do not state the prices at which the suits in this reduction sale formerly sold, since, if we did, they would seem to be gross exaggerations; we prefer not to state the former price as we would rather have you judge the value as you see them. Every woman will recognize that goods of as high an order as these could not be purchased regularly under two or three times the present price.” It would appear to the average reader of the above announcement that the New York firm, in trying to impress upon the public the merits of its new policy, had quite fully violated its own rules in the inferences which are given out in the explanation. i ’ Seeing is believing. Use your <' i» windows, and don’t be afraid you \ i’ will insult your customers by / ]► putting plenty of cards in them, j The prospective customer wants <[ ]’ to know all before he reaches j’ for his pocketbook. Power of Advertising. The power of advertising was demonstrated to St. Louis church people recently in a forceful manner. This advertisement inserted by a gospel mission was in one of the newspapers: MEN (50) wanted at 3150 Easton av. at 8 p. m.; come ready for work. Before the doors opened a crowd of men estimated to be close on to a thousand were on arpund the block. When they arrived the church workers attempted to explain that they wanted men to work for Christianity, but the angry job-seekers howled them down, and it was necessary to call in the police to keep order. Later the ad. appeared with the word “service” substituted for “work." “We thought it would just give a little harmless publicity, but the result was astounding. We had no idea hundreds of men would answer the advertisement.” ,• , j “A Want Ad. Romance.” Such was the heading of a story in a New York paper the other day. A real estate firm of Baltimore has had a four-line advertisement in this paper every day (except Sunday) for 29 years. The advertisement has cost the firm in 29 years $2,000. It has brought the firm in 29 years more than SIOO,OOO in profits. Wherefore, If you start advertising keep at It Let your appeal be continuous, insistent, even though only a still, small voice Is raised —less than half an inch in the case of this advertiser. And above all things be sure your proposition is right—that you “have the goods to deliver.”

Occasionally one runs across a business house that has succeeded without advertising, but it is the exception that proves the rule. Where there Is one success achieved without advertising, there is a thousand that have been achieved by advertising. In every community the manufacturers and merchants who are the best known are those who have paid for publicity to become known —paid for It in some form. A friend visiting my house the other night said that he believed that a good advertisement is effective anywhere, at any time and at'any place. I “Why, you can paint a shingle," said he, “with the name of a good firm on It and the address, and just i a line Indicating the kind of business engaged In, and throw it up in the air i and let it drop where it will—you ■ may be sure that somebody will pick ' It up and read the inscription and j remember It.” In your own case, Mr. Merchant j you who so frequently say that you don’t know whether advertising pays or not —how is it that you know what play is being produced in your town —how Is it that you are familiar with the new things that come out in the way of clothes, hats, shoes, hosiery, i neckwear, shirts, underwear? Never read advertisements, do you? It is absurd for people to say that they don’t read advertisements and ’ It is absurd to claim that advertising | does not pay. Every merchant In every town should advertise, first of all, in his home newspapers. He cannot make himself well known otherwise, he cannot do as much business as he wants to do otherwise. He need spend only in proportion ' to the business he does in a year. If : he did a SIO,OOO business last year, spend SSOO to $750 in advertising; if he did $20,000, spend SI,OOO to $1,250 in advertising, and so on. It will be a beginning and it will pay—but the greatest care should be taken, since only small space can be i used, to make each advertisement as full of meat as possible—make it stand out conspicuously in type effect, and make the reading matter say something and mean it. Newspaper Ads Fill Church. The churches of Binghamton, N. Y., recently made an unusual demonstra tlon of the value of newspaper adver tislng. As the result of an advertls ing campaign of jugt one day an aver age increase in the attendance in the j churches of about 35 per cent was ' brought about. The scheme was par ■ tlcipated in by all the Protestant ' churches. The clergymen were con ■ ducting a special movement to in crease attendance at the/ervices and fill empty pews. OjG Saturday nearly all the merchants, by agreement, gave up their s regular advertising space In the newspapers to the City Ministerial association, w’hlch filled the papers with, display advertising, urging the public to attend church. As a result, every church was filled to overflowing. *************************** ★ s ★ The value of keeping your J $ name before the public depends ¥ ★ entirely on what your name J x stands for. ‘ * 5 * *»»»»»**»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» Just a Talk on Paper. A good newspaper advertisement is simply a letter from the dealer to prospective customers, sometimes illustrated and sometimes not. Instead of writing them thousands of personal letters each day, you send your thousand of messages through the newspapers. If you have some new goods or special prices, send the message to the people, Inviting them to come and see them. Newspaper advertising Is not a game of chance, neither Is it anything mysterious. It Is simply a means of telling the entire public in print what you would not tell them in person.

WAR SCARE BURIED — President Tells of Friendly Relations With Japan. - Not In Twenty Years Has Such Cordial Feeling Existed Between Two Countries—Government Costs Half of All Wages Earned. Washington. —President Taft has what should be the last word inent the Japanese war scare when he declared to White House callers that from his own knowlege he could state that our relations with Japan ; have not been as close, as friendly i and as sincere within the last twenty years as they are today. | Previously the president had requested Baron Uchlda, the Japanese ambassador, to call upon him. The coni ference, which lasted for a considerable length of time, was primarily tor the purpose of discussing a matter entirely foreign to the “war scare, but it is understood .that the ambassador before leaving the White House was asked to send a message to the i mikado repudiating, on the authority lof the Washington government, the sensational stories that have been circulated regarding the fears of this country as to Japan’s designs and the irresponsible reports attributing the recent army movements in part ; to such fears. The exchange of ratifications of the new treaty of commerce and navigation between the president and Baron Uchida took place on the opening day of the special session of congress, and jingo statesmen may find a salutary ! lesson in the exchange of ratifications which marks the last link in the chain I of events bringing the great power of the Orient into closer relations with the United States. The Hobsons still may shout and sound terrifying .alarms, but the final formalities pertaining to the new bond of friendship could scarcely have been set for a more propitious date to ease the fears of the reason- ; able. The interesting fact also became known that another treaty with Japan j is in making, and probably will be j ready for ratification within a comparatively short time. The prospecI tive treaty is designed to reach an i International agreement that will remove the troubles which have arisen ! over the seal fisheries. A similar ■ treaty is to be negotiated with Rus--1 Bia. Nations that metaphorically have i their guns pointed at each other do i not plan treaties of such character {at one and the same time; so we have still further evidence —if It be needed —of the ridiculousness of the war scare. It was not until after President Taft returned from the south that he j grasped what may be termed the seriousness of the war talk. That Is, he had not realized that anyone was taking it seriously. He heard nothing about it —in fact, while he was in i Augusta and immediately upon his re- ' turn to the White House he was I greatly surprised when a friend paid a hurry call, his eyes bulging with excitement and his voice all a-trem-ble. “How about this Japanese situation?" exclaimed the visitor when he got his breath. | “What situation?” replied the president. “Japan is over there and we j are over here.” “Why, this war we are to have,” i continued the visitor. “Japan alj ready has the Haw-aiian islands and is soon to attack our coast.” 1 This was the president’s cue for one of his characteristic laughs. He ■ informed his visitor regarding the closer relations now existing between the two countries than at any time In twenty years. The president, it is stated, understands how some newspapers would print sensational stories which are their stock in trade I —but, “There is no foundation whatever, no excuse, tor the ridiculous stories which are being printed." DISCUSS THE CONVENTIONS. The leaders of the two great politli sal parties are beginning to give some I thought to the question as to where the national nominating conventions of next year shall be held. The city of Baltimore is already hot after the Democratic convention, and her citizens have organized a movement to capture the convention for that city. It seems hatdly probable, however, that the Democratic convention will come east Leading Democrats in congress say that while they have nothing against Baltimore, they are certain that the Democrats of the country west of the Allegheny mountains would be opposed to holding the convention In an eastern city. The westerners generally take the view that the convention ought to be held as far west as Chicago or St. Louis. Several cities have already let it be known that they will be in the field for one or the other of the conventions, or for both of them. These cities are Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver and Cincinnati. The questions of time and place for»the two conventions will not be taken up by the national committees until next December, and possibly not until January. If precedent is followed the committees will meet here and fix the time and place. Where there is a field of candidates their respective interests are usually a factor in the fixing of the places of holding a convention. It seems now that several men will

be in the race for the Democratic nomination. Whether Governor .Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, who will, apparently, be the Democratic candidate from the east, would prefer to have the convention held in an eastern city, like Baltimore, is a question which no one as yet has asked the governor to answer. Democrats in congress generally assume that Governor Harmon would prefer to see the convention go to a middle west city. The older politicians of both the parties agree that Chicago is the ideal convention city, and the general expectation at this early date is that one of the conventions, if not both of them, will go to the lake city. o WHAT GOVERNMENT COSTS. It has cost more than $22,000,000,000 to run the United States government since 1875. It costs a per capita of $12.10 per annum from every man, woman and child In America to pay the costs of , government. Every voter in the United States contributes $75.35 to the support oi! the government. These are three of the points made by Representative John G. McHenry, Democrat of Pennsylvania, in a speech which has just been published in a belated issue of the Congressional Record. Figuring that the wage earners of the United States earned $2,611,540,532 for 1910, Mr. McHenry points out that it takes nearly one-half of all the earnings of these wage earners to run the National government. The farmers of the country ought to realize, says the member from Pennsylvania, that it takes the whole hay crop and corn crop of the United States to pay the present running expenses of the nation. He says the system of government and the consequent burden of taxation is growing out of all proportion to the produc- | tion and earning of the people. He figures that If, to the cost of | the National government there is j added the cost of the state, county and municipal governments, the cost of government per capita is $25 for every man, woman and child, or $125 for every family, and In this connection he says: “When we come to consider that the average annual earnings for workingmen in this country are less than $475 and of this amount he must pay more than one-third for the purpose of government in a time of peace, it la time for all men to give this matter their immediate and serious attention.” RICH OLD UNCLE SAM. Uncle Sam has more gold in his possession today than he has ever had before in his life. Treasurer Lee McClurg looked over his balance sheet and found the government had over $1,000,000,000 In gold coin, to say nothing of $126,000,000 in bullion. Never before in the history of the government has it had so much gold piled up in its conffers. Not only is this a record-breaking amount for the government to have, but there is more gold in the treasury now than in the vaults of any other two nations. This vast golden hoard represents the accumulation of a long series of years. It is not ascribed to any particular financial development of recent occurrence. By no means all this gold and bullion is stored in ; Washington. The gold is partly in . the vaults of the treasury in Wash- ; ington, some of it is in the vaults of the sub-treasuries and some of it in the mints of Philadelphia and Denver. As a matter of fact, the greater part of it is at the two mints named. WEALTH IN DEAD LETTERS. During the twelve months covered by the last report of the fourth assistant postmaster general there were 10,295,716 letters and packages opened up by the dead letter office for the purpose of ascertaining the names and addresses of the senders. Os these 4,889,740 were delivered, leaving over 5,000,000 letters and pack- j ages, whose destination could not be j ascertained, in the hands of the postoffice officials. The undelivered postal cards and picture post cards constantly increased In years, until during the same period more than 11,000,000 of them were received by the dead letter office to be destroyed. A total of 73,101 letters, inclosing money in aggregate amount of $64,303, vrere J unclaimed and the revenue • derived from dead mail matter, Including postage stamps removed from letters and found loose in the malls which could not be returned to owners, ag- I gregated $36,000. CHAMP'S HAUNTED GAVEL. In 1817 a mill was built in Peno creek, one-half mile from its mouth, in Pike county, Mo., by Enoch Matson. A piece of the apron log of the dam was cut out by Mr. Matson’s grandson and Warren Hatcher a year ago. The timber is sound, very dry, and solid. Out of it will be made a : gavel for Champ Clark to call the house of congress to order. This was the first mill built north of the Missouri river. The dam is haunted < and no fish will live in the water. ' Many years age an Indian maiden ] who lived at the old dam site fell in love with a white man. She shook 1 the chief’s son and eloped with the ' pale-face. This angered the chief. Gathering his Indian braves, he caught the pair and threw their dead bodies into the deep water at the dam. This j tragedy disgusted the fish and they I left years ago, it is said. So Champ Clark has a gavel with a history and romance attached.
