Girls of the Right Sort. The city papers put on airs and fill their columns full of play and frolic of the people, but you seldom read an item showing what has been accomplished by skill in the serious work of life. In North Carolina the papers pay attention to both, particularly the wide awake country weekly, as the following from the Thete correspondent of the Jefferson Record shows: "Misses Clema Dixon and Ida Weaver washed and hung on the line one hundred and fifty pieces by 12 o'clock Monday. That is a deal better piece of news than that "Miss Gladys As torbilt and Miss Genevieve Stuy vessant wore the smartest gowns in the front row at the horse show, where they were greatly admired by Cholly Knickerbock er and Billy Beluiont, who had entered troting horses." Miss Clema and Miss Ida are todav living the simple and wholesome lives of the grand mothers of New York's smart set and have not had their heads turned by excessive wealth and the doings of the so-called"smart set. Thev will make ideal wives of the thrifty sons of Ashe. Whenever you find expert young women who can "wash and hang on the line one hundred and fifty pieces by twelve o'clock" you will find women whose homes will illustrate the truth that ' 'cleanliness is next to Godliness'' Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTO R I A Does Advertising Pay? Yea verily, the right kind of aevertistin always pays, and the man who does not advertise, had as well go out of business. Advertising is a study. And in these modern days schools of advertising have been establish ed, and hundreds of men are making a living teaching otheie how to advertise, or writing their ads for them. A man running a village paper, was passing a large store one day with a bran-new-suit of clothes on. "Hey," exclaimed the merchant, "has a Jew store burned out. or wherever did you get that rig?" "I bought that from my friend, Goodfit, and it is a dandy," said the Editor. "Why didn't you buy from me? I could maybe have saved you money." "You have never told me so, Mr. Close. I have lived here five years and, never once, have you told me or my readers, that you even kept a store." "Oh! Haven't advertised hey! Why who ever gets a dollar back for an ad in your paper?" "Only those who advertise sir. The only time I expect to get a dollar out of you, is when you advertise to close business." It is the progressive man that advertises. He knows what he wants to sell, and tells about it in an attractive way. Merchant Princes have made their fortunes by judicious advertising, and when a man like John Wanama ker, who pavs one man SIO,OOO a year to look after his advertising business, is willing to spend from one to two hundred thousand dol lars a year, just telling folks about his business, there must be big money in advertising. VOU'LL feel better for work, play or rest if you eat Quaker Oats at least once a day. , Advertising by Home Mer chants. Home merchants who do not make a business of advertising and thereby endeavoring to keep trade at home, have no right to complain of the business that is gradually being gathered in from the towns and county by the mail order houses of the cities. The mail order business is rapidly in creasing and will increase faster if home merchants do not offset it by convincing the people that it is to their advantage, to trade at home. The city houses know the value af advertising, and they are drawing more and more trade away from the home mer chants every year. People are i to trade where they think it is to their advantage, and the merchant who hasn't confidence enough in his own business to lay its advantages regularly and systematically before the people, need not be surprised if thev are induced by others to buy from them. Advertising has become just as much a part of business of every enterprise as bookkeep ing, salesmanship or stock-tak ing, and the merchants who can't write advertisements are either learning to do it or are hiring others who can.—Monroe Journal. What Is A Kiss? A contemporary recently off er a prize for the best definition of a "kiss." The following are some of the best definitions sent in, the first one winning the prize: An insipid and tasteless mor sel, which becomes delicious and delectable in proportion as it is flavored with love. The sweetest fruit on the tree of love. The oftener plucked, the more abundant it grows. A thing of use to no one, but much prized by two. That which you cannot give without taking, and cannot take without giving. The food by which trwf flame of love is fed. The flag of truce in the Dretty wars of courtship and marriage. The acme of agony to a bashful man. A telegram to the heart. Nothing, divided b3tween two. The only kiown "smick" that will calm a storm. Not enojgh for o.ie, just enough for two, t">o for three. The baby's right, the lover's privil ige, the parent's bemson, and the hypocrite's mask. AFTER DOCTORS FAILED Lydia E. Piakham's Vegeta ble Compound Cured Her.
