You get the benefit of gilt edged service ever after. 1If Your Credit Is Good It Is Good At Barker's Mr. Consumer, do you know that a line of credit is worth more to you than cash? And why shouldn’t it be? Business is'not the brutal struggle it is generally termed, but is a psycological things; not materialistic, but a thing of the mind. Forty years ago tle ethical element in the business world was a matter of little concern. The meaning of ethics in business is honesty, and honesty in business rela- 'tions today was unknown a generation ago. Credit is dependent upon honesty. It is the greatest factor in modern merchandising. Just as this is true so it of the is also true that business is dependent upon mind. And so . credit is but the capitalization of brains. Credit customers are our best customers. We always . ' Then too, Mr, Consumer, there are certain benefits to be derived by ‘We learn_also to like you better. We will take our ‘When this has been accomplished, what hap- Not that we do not endeavor to give giit edge service to all alike, be he cash or credit, but the fact that we know you well brings to us both that self satisfied feeling of personal service peculiar to intimate friendship. Telephone, send someone or come yourself, that same personal, self satisfled feeling continues to exist, and the transaction made has become a pleasure of indescribable satisfaction. “Don’t you believe that FORCE wins in advertising?” was askofi the credit man.” Quick as a flash his reply followed: The real quality which wins men is not force, but sympathy, and the advertiser who has the keenness and penetrgtion not only to read character approximately, but also determine the mood and point of view of his trade, who is so completely ma ster of his own moods as to be able to place himself easlls;und agreeably in sympathy with his public, is in a position to win out easily. i When you have the attention of your customer and made him understand that you are in sym- pathy with him, the talking points, arguments and suggestions that follow in one’s advertising are colored by mutual courtesy so that every word is a sympathetic appeal as well as a convincing point. Courtesy in advertising, as n't courtesy you can’t very well counterfleit it in your advertising. well as in fact, is really regard for the rights of others. If you have- :But courtesy is easy to acquire— Just put yourself in the other fellow’splace and treat him as you would like to be treated, In this motto, I believe, lies the past success of the Barker Drug and Jewelry store. We believe that when an error creeps into any little transaction made at this store, our patrons feel well enough acquainted with us to bring it to our attention, knowing full well that we are more than anxious to correct it. BARKER'S DRUG AND - JEWELRY STORE WOMEN PROPOSE TO FIGHT 8ay They Will Defeat Election of Three Democrats. Philadelphia, Feb. 17.—"“Congress won’t give women the ballot until they make them do it.

JESTER KNOWN AS ONION KING (Continued from Page 1.) support himself and family. He has no lands to sell, but he says the as- sociation has a market for four times the amount shipped last year. “I have two acres in onions now,” bor to tend to them. All the work in connection with onion growing is hand work after they are planted. In southern Minnesota children can be hired for weeding, but not up here. I have 20 acres devoted to low- land meadow, 40 under the plow where I rotate potatoes, corn and oats, and 1 have some fine thorough- bred cows. But my specialty in farm- ing is onions.” . “Boga” Doesn’t Mean Bogus The association shipped about 15 carloads of onions, carrots and cab- bages last year. Every crate, every basket, every "bag was marked “Boga” with a large stemcil. It is the association trademark formed by the first letters of the association’s name. Mr. Jester and the association manager superintends packing. ‘They throw out 'everything which is not perfect. Nothing but the super- lative goes under the Boga trade- mark. And they do some fancy pack- ing, too. A Winnipeg commission firm wrote that the Boga car was the tastiest thing that ever entered the ‘Winnipeg yards. “That’s just advertising,” says Mr. Jester. “Our goods are done up in the neatest sort of package and the best quality ds inside.” “So you think there is money in onions?” the onion king was asked. “Just & matter of figures,” was the answer of the man who takes an average of $600 an acre'out of cut- over lands. “I always farm with a lead pencil. Onions are bringing $4 a hundred pounds on the market right now. An acre should produce 800 bushels, A bushel weighs 656 pounds, that’s 44,800 pounds, and at 4 cents a pound that’s $1,772 gross. There ‘should be some few hundred /dollars net left.” s DRINK HOT TEA FOR A BAD CO: [N ———— Breast Tea, or as the German folks call it, “Hamburger Brust Thee,” at any pharmacy.
