WHY ADVERTISING PAYS.
It pays to advertise boon u so it brings
purchasers fur what one has to sull.
In this day and generation the good
litniu88 ninn realise the advuntagot
of advertising in starting a now busl
ueand iu helpfulness in getting
new enterprise on lta feet. Not all un
derstand, however, jtiat why it eunnol
he ('roppod or ita proportions grontly
red-iced after trade lins once been in
ducod to the advertiser's doors. One
reason why he must keep on making
liis usual 'announcements ia drawn
from the conditions of today. There
was time, perhaps, when a man's
cign over his own door was guflluicnt
to call attention to hia business, in
connection with requoata of his cus
tomers to tell ther neighbor! that he
had just received a large invoice of
new goods. Suci a time could only
be when no one did mora than that
when that was the coarse pursued by
dealers generally. Today, however,
the country is well supplied with news
papers patronized by a good class of
readers, thus furnishing excellent op
portunities for invitation to trade, and
enterprising buaiuoaa ineu take ad
vantage of these opportunities; and
when they onoe get in line it is difll
toult for them to discontinue advertis
ing. In faot, to stop advertising would
bo looked upon by tlio people as evi
dence that they bad gone out of busi
ness. For this reason, even after they
have become well known, it is liocis
sary for them to keep their names and
business constantly before the public
if they expect to retain a desirable
trade. If one enters the raoe he can
not hope to' win if he does not run to
the finish and there it no finish until
be retirea from business. The world
is, full of men with energy and push,
and if a man expcQts to be a auoceasful
business man he must get in the push

Some one has written that "Woman
ia the , finishing touch; man was only
an experiment." Thero were many
experiments awaiting the finishing
touches during the past year, while
many experiments were tried and
found responsive to the louoh. As I
never was the victim of leap-year
marriago I cannot speak from expert'
ence, but I cannot sou any good roason
why loop-year marriages should not
result just as happily as any others,
The Astoria Budget is responsible
tor tie statement that "scores of young
ladies sumptuously arrayed in bangs,
dimples, smiles and roses, are besieg
ing the membcra-elect of the legisla
ture for clerkships." There are young
ladies who understand practical econ
omy. The toilets are simplo, inexpen
sive and beyond all doubt very attrac
tive, and do away with luuudry bills.
I notice in an exchange that there
ia a petition in circulation asking the
legislature to make an appropriation
for the construction of a fish ladder at
Oregon City. Since fish have boon so
well provided by nature, why go to
so great expenaeT Let them "acale"
the fulls without a ladder.
An . exchange, uiidor the heading,
"Meaning of Mouths and How Thoy
Came to Be Named," aaya that Juuu
ary was named by the Itomana for
their god of war, Janus. January be
gins the year and looks both ways
toward the year just past and that just
coining. As T was born at the front
door of January, this probably ac
counts for my looking both ways for
Sunday. And I rise to remak, paren
thetically, that I have heaps of com
pany. . ' -

That night the new space-writer
hurriedly wrapped up and addressed a
copy of the issue, without a glance,
and dropped it into the mail, with tills
brief note:
"My Oi)llt8wtI)eret Marie: I send
