How To MAKE MONEY.— All shrewd
newspaper readers, especially the ladies,
readily acknowledge that the real news
that affects the pocket is found in the
Advertisements of local merchants, The
merchant who advertises is a reporter.
He reports to the newspapers what he
has to offer and it is real news. 11 some
merchant is making a run on shoes and
selling them, that is news to any one
who needs shoes. If another is offering
special bargains in overcoats, under-
wear, corsets, bats, dress goods, carpets,
furniture, groceries, coal or wood stoves
or anything that the family needs, why
it is news that means money to every
family and the people know it, That's
why merchants advertise in newspapers.

ripe for me to tke a stand, which I hope
my old and other friends will be
generous enough not to attribute to any
improper motive on my, part, but to
secure what many think is now due to

seldom attains the top place. As to the
expressions of opinions of others regard-
ing me and the many complimentary
newspaper comments quoted, those who
uttered them are responsible, not tne.
