WEALTHY BRIDE WON BY A TIMBER GRUISER She Drew First Claim and Has 160 Acres in on the Coeur d’Alene Reservation. , Spokane, Wash,, first woman to settle on a claim in the Coeur d’'Alene reservation in northern Idaho where she won 160 acres of farm land at Uncle Sam’s big lottery last August, and Frank Custer, a timber cruiser and locator living at Harrison, Idaho, are to be married in a short time, thus bring- ing to a pretty culmination a romance that began eleven months ago. Miss Maloney received bushels of letters from various parts of the United States, Canada and Mexico when it was announced that she had the first choice on the big reserva- tion, and most of the missives con- tained proposals of marriage. One after the other she declined, until Custer, who located the claim for her and showed her over the property, remained alone in the field. Custer was ardent and persistent in his wooing, and since the beginning of May, when Miss. Maloney took possession of the claim, he has been a regular visitor at the homestead, which is three miles from the town ot Harrison. UNPRODUGTIVE ADVERTISING An Article ror Adva Ia this work a-day world there are but few merchants who don’t believe in the efficacy of advertising. They have a feeling in their bones that the firms that succeed best are those which advertise properly., They consequently rush into print with their little say-so, pay the price of their ad and then wonder, O so wearily, why they don’t get the de- sired results. One thing however they seem to overlook and that is the quality of their advertising. A firm’s advertising should be like its business—just as far above criticism as they know how to make 1t. If a firm wants to be suc- cessful in any business it must first of all be honest. Its business methods must be open and above board. There must be no double dealings, no chicanery. It must secure patronage and keep it by merit alone—¢‘there is no friend- ship in business.” It must serve the public as well and, if possible, a little bit better than any body else. Just in proportion to the way in which it embodies in its business all these tundamental factors. ’ Its advertising, too, I say must be like its business. It must be honest. The advertiser must say what he means and mean what he says. There must be no evasion of facts. | wasted. Be sure yours is good seed. There must be no undue emphasis on unworthy objects. The goods advertised must be worth the money asked. The standard of the mer- chandise sold must be as high as that of its seller. The true object of good advertis- ing is not alone to sell what one has but to create in the mind of the reader a desire for the article which the advertiser has to sell. There- fore advertising must begin and end by stating as fully as space will per- mit the virtues of the commodity offered. If it has none don’t adver- tise it. Don’t sell it. Give it away or throw in the lake. Make your advertising’ just as at- tractive as you know how. If you have not the knack get someone that has, Space costs money and space improperly or inadequately used is often like sleeping in a damp bed—it does more harm than good. Above all be careful as to where you buy your space. Don’t take the word of any advertising salicitor that his paper reaches the very peo- ple you want to reach. He is prob- ably honest and believes what he says but he is naturally prejudiced in favor of his own organ. Be from Missouri. Ask to be shown. Make sure of the circulation. Make sure that it is the kind of circulation you are looking for and then buy your space and buy plenty of it. Above all and beyond all remember that advertising is like an unbrella— you must keep it up if is to do you any good. Sterne said, “‘The way to fame is like the way to Heaven—through much tribulation.” The only way to sucessful advertising is like the road to hell—paved with good intentions. But good intentions ultimately bring good results. No good seed is ever July 26—Miss Ella T. Maloney, of Spokane, the See that it is sown in good soil. See that it is the right kind of seed. Do this and a bountepus harvest awaits you as advertiser. Don’t’be afraid to be original. Don’t be afraid of novelty. . What you want to do is to make people read what you write and having" read it believe what you say. Be earnest. Be convincing. in you. it right. fied one .does you more: harm than the satisfied one does you good. Treat them white. Tell them why you think they should trade with you. When they see your reasons they will probably think so, too. i To summarize, good advertising should be honest, truthful, attract- ive original and novel. It should be neither polygot nor profuse, but a plain, straightforword state- ment of what you are prepared to do. Ifit be this and you are as good as your advertising, people will flock to you and your popular- ity your, prestige, and your busi- people to trade. increasing in volume, appreciation and their patronage. NO CANDIDATE IS DECIDED ON Ohio Republicans Still in Air on Governorship. GARFIELD CAUSES WORRY “Regular” Leaders Unable to Estimste the Strength of the Progressives in the Convention, as Most of the Dele- gates Are Unpledged—Considerable Differences in Platforms Suggested by the Two Factions, Columbus, O., July 26.—The Repub- lican leaders and delegates who are here for the state convention of the Republican party are frankly awaiting word from James R. -Garfield, the leader of the progressives. - Although the nominations will be made Wednes- day the leaders are as far from agree- ment upon a- candidate for governo! as they werera monthr ago. ! As the ,great majority of the dele- gates are unpledged the state leaders are greatly interested in the number of votes which Mr. Garfield will claim for the progressive camp. It is con- sidered that this will have a direct bearing upon the platform to be adopt- ed and, hence, upon the candidate for governor. The only considerable divergence between the platform suggested by Mr. Garfield three weeks ago and that outlined by Wade H. Ellis, one of the “regular” leaders and a friend to the president, is in the endorsement of the present national administration and the recently enacted tariff law, which Mr. Ellis insisted upon. Hope to Reach Compromise. It was admittedly hoped that a basis of agreement might. be reached on an outline such as that indicated by Mr. Ellis. The fight of the progressive element has been thus far wholly for an ad- vanced platform and it was expscted that Mr. Garfield would indicate how far the suggestions made by Mr. Ellis for an extension of referendum and other state reforins, coupled with an “endorsement of the president and his policy, will satisfy the progressives. Senators Burton and Dick have not been actively in league with the cam- paign for the nomination of Judge O. B. Brown of Dayton, who is supported by George B. Cox, and it was stated that an acceptance by the progres- sives of some candidate other than modification of the platform suggested by Mr. Ellis, would do much to bring about an agreement of the leaders aside from Mr. Cox himself. TEXAS PRIMARY ELECTION Anti-Prohibitionist Named for Govern- or, but Resubmission Wins. Dallas, Tex., July 26.—Oscar B. Col- quitt, anti-prohibitionist, has been nominated for governor at the Demo- cratic primaries by a plurality which will probably reach 60,000. Cone: Johnson and William Poindexter, the prohibition candidates, are practically tied for second place. The proposition to submit a prohibi- tion amendment to the constitution has carried by about 20,000. This pre- sents the anomalous situation of an anti-prohibition Democrat being nomi- nated by a party demanding the submission of a prohibition amend- ment confronting him. CORN PRICES’/G0 SKYWARD Advance Due to . Reports of Heavy Damage by Drouth. Chicago, July 26.—An extreme ad- vance of 4% cents was registered in the corn market here. The market was wide and excited on reports of heavy damage due to the heat and drouth. The December option was the most violently affected. It sold up to 65. cents. September gained 3%, rell- ing at 6615 cents.

Lina Cavalierl, Now Mrs. Rob- ert Chanler, Has Appendicitis. IN EFFORT TO SAVE LIFE Mrs. Robert Winthrop Chanler Op- erated on at Paris. Paris, July 26.—Mrs. Robert Win- throp Chanler, who remains Mme. Lina Cavalieri. on the operatic stage, underwent a surgical operation for ap- pendicitis. The most famous surgeons in Paris had decided an operation should be performed immediately. They told Mr. Chanler that unless his bride should submit to the operation at once she might not live a month. They assured Mr. Chanler they be- lieve the operation will be successful. Mrs. Chanler has suffered from chronic appendicitis for some time. She was forced to abandon her op- eratic engagements in Buenos Ayres and in St. Petersburg last May. HEAT FATAL TO FIVE IN NEW YORK CITY Thousands. of Tenement Dwel- ers Seek Refuge i Parks New York, July 26.—After its rec ord rise to 94 degrees, marking the hottest day of the season, the official mercury hovered above or not far be- neath the eighty mark all night. The prospects were for another sizzling day, although something of a breeze breeze from the southwest and a less percentage of humidity tended to al leviate conditions. Despite this pros- tration cases began to be reported early. Five deaths which occurred in the last twenty-four hours ‘are attributed to the heat. Thousands of tenement dwellers were unable to stand the heat of the crowded districts during the night and fled to the parks for refuge. A degree of comfort was found in the open spaces where the breeze that sprang up in the night had a chance to get in its Yeneficient work. THREE SOLDIERS DROWNED Lose Lives When Yawl Capsizes Off California Coast. San Francisco, July 26.—Three pri- vates from the Fourth United States military prison guard stations at Al catraz island lost their lives when a yawl in which they, with three others, had been. sailing on the bay capsized in the treacherous Carquinez straits, midway between Angel and Alcatraz island. Two of the men, Walter J. Thompson of Ohio and Lynn K. Rose of San Jose, Cal, were drowned, and Alonzo Nash of Clinton, Tenn., died of exposure after being rescued along with his companions, William High- sell, Lester Hanson and Charles Bates. 5 WOULD LEAD IN POPULATION Chicago May Annex All Towns Within Radius of One Hundred Miles. Chicago, July 26.—Campaign for the annexation of. every town, village and hamlet within.a radius of 100 miles of the Chicago city hall is to be start- ed by the Three Million club. Robert C. Givens, president of the club, says the object of the campaign will ‘be to send Chicago to the front among the ‘world’s cities, with a popu- lation of from 7,000,000 to 10,000,000 In the next ten years. Young Woman Ends Her ‘Life, “Sturgis, S. D, July 26—Pearl Brown, aged twenty-three, stepdaugh- ter of David Brown of Clark Butte, committed suicide by shooting her- gelf through the heart with a revolver. No motive for the deed is known. She had been away on a visit and, return- ing home, told her sister she had come ‘home to kill herself, which she did shortly. afte: wards, . ; GRAND TRUNK T0 - GONTINUE FIGHT Refuse§ to Arbitrate Dispute ‘With Strikers. AGAIN ACCEPTS FREIGHT Officials Announce Thelir Intention to Run Trains if Given Adequate Pro- tection for Property and Employes. Shops Along the Entire System Re- open, Giving Employment to Ten Thousand Men. Montreal, July 26.—Solution of the Grand Trunk strike problem is-now in sight, according to the company’s officials. It neither includes, they say, arbitration nor any further negotia- tions with the 5,000 conductors and trainmen who struck a week ago for a wage scale higher than the 25 per cent increase awarded by the'board of conciliation. The only essential yet to be provided for in the situation, from the company’s point of view, as set forth in the message sent by Pres- ident Hays to Mackenzie King, minis- ter of labor, is adequate protection of the company’s property and employes, especially those who have taken the place of the strikers. “While we were desirous of arbitra- tion,” says President Hays, “time for such action has been passed.” The strike leaders, on the other hand, expressed the utmost confi- dence in the steadfastness of their ranks and their ability to force the raiiroad to terms by an irremediable freight paralysis. Accepting Freight of All Kinds. The railroad officials began the week with an ambitious programme. It was announced that freight of all kinds would be accepted for immediate ship- ment. The shops at various points, closed a week ago, were reopened. Practically all the ten thousand em- ployes returned to their places. Several minor wrecks, alleged by the railroad officials to be due to tam- pering with switches by unauthorized persons, and declared by strike lead- ers to have been accidents resulting from handling of trains by inexperi- enced men, have been called to the at- tention of the authorities. The local militia at Brockville. which has been a storm center, is said not to be doing satisfactory protective work. The city council is expected to request the government to send a de- tachment of regulars from Kingston. Troops May Be Ordered Out. Indianapolis, July 26.—Unless there i8 a request from Shériff Orr at South Bend there will be no troops sent there to quell the rioting of the Grand Trunk trainmen, according to a state- ment by Governor Marshall. The gov- ernor said, however, he was. keeping in touch with the situation and if there were any further rioting the state militia was ready to be sent. SUM UP IN FISHERIES CASE British Attorney General to Address Hague Court for Week. The Hague, July 26.—The long drawn out arguments in the New- foundland fisheries case before the ar- bitration tribunal have reached the summing up stage. Sir W. S. Robson, the British attorney general, will con- clude the case for Great Britain and United States Senator Elihu Root will close for the United States. Sir William, who has the first say, will occupy the present week. In open- ing he took the questions before the tribunal seriatim and he denied in toto the claims that the United States exercised any sovereignty aver the fishing grounds. RESTORE BIBLE TO ‘SCHOOLS Statewide Campaign Begun by lllinois Churches. Chicago, July 26.—Statewide cam- paign in churches to prepare a mon- ster petition to be presented to the su- preme court of Illinois for a rehearing in the case by which the Bible was excluded from the public schools has been commenced. H. H. Van Meter, president of the Christian Endeavor union, says that Illinois alone, of all the states, is the first to discard the Bible. Six Campers Are Poisoned. Maiden - Rock, Wis, July 26—A camping party consisting of the Flora family from Chicago planned to spend thie day at Maiden Rock point. After breakfast they started to walk to the point, but six of the party became seri- ously ill and were brought back here on a hand car. A doctor worked over them all day and all but three are out of danger. Chicago to Bar Fight Films. Chicago, July 26.—Chief of Police Steward announced in effect that the Johnson-Jeffries fight pictures will not be allowed to be exhibited in Chicago. He said he would issue an order pro- hibiting the exhibition of any pictures of any act illegal in Illinois. As prize- fighting is not permitted in this state the Reno films are said to come under the ban.

Every Sun- day he contributed to the Journal de Clamecy, and this Is the sort of things he used to give the peasants. Writing of the Journal Officiel, posted up on the wall of the mairie and which no one ever reads, he said:" “I bad_forgotten the goats. One of them never misses a number.

A Persian Hotel. Some years ago an effort was made to establish a European hotel at the Junction of the two most traveled roads of Persia. Each room of this ho- tel contained some articles which I at least have never found In any hotel in either Europe or America. Among them were a nightcap, a bairbrush and a toothbrush. Perhaps it was on account of this extravagance that the scheme failed. An American mission- ary as he was leaving this hotel one morning was asked by a servant what he had done with the botel hairbrush This dignified man in- clerical attire with his wife and children was pre- vented from leaving the hotel until it ‘was ascertained that he had spoken the truth when he said that he threw the brush under the bed to scare away a cat.—Mrs. Colquhoun In Los Angeles Times, Fifty Men and One Elephant. Interesting tests were recently made in London to determine the respective pulling power of horses, men and ele- pbants, I'wo horses weighing 1,600 pounds each, together pulled 3,750 | pounds, or 550 pounds more than their combined weight. One elephant, pounds each together pulled 3,750 pounds, or 3,250 pounds less than its weight. Fifty men, aggregating 7,500 pounds in weight, pulled 8,750 pounds, or just as much as the single elephant, but, like the horses, they pulled more than their own weight. One hundred men pulled 12,000 pounds.—St. Louis Republic. Difference Defined. Mrs, Muchwed (reading paper)—Can you tell me the difference between a visit and a visitation?
