The best paper in a community nl ways brings ample returns to its ad vertisers, The beBt paper covers the cream of the trade in any section. Mark Twain said: "Heboid the fool sallh: 'Put not all thine eggs in one basket,' which is but a manner of saying: 'scatter your money and your attention,' hut tho wise man salth: 'Put all thine eggs in the one basket and watch that basket.' " The same applies equally to news papers. Put your ad In tho best pa per, and then watch the paper and the ad. Have a system of checking the returns received. It will do no good to advertise something that nobody wants, Find out what this Is a de mand for and ndverllse that. You can crent a demand for an article If you have time and money enough to keep up a eontiimel hammering. For the retail dealer this is a waste of ener gy, because there are dozens of things In every stock for which there alreaay exists a demand. Dont say what ev erybody else In your line is saying, and never publish a general ad. There are three hundred and twelve days in the year, on each of which you can talk in the Observer. Don't try to tell all you know about the whole store every day. Talk of several items each time if you like, but say something definite about, each one. Don't say . .fine shoes for men, women and chil dren, but talk about one shoe in each line and give prices. The Observer will carry what yen say right into the best homes in Union and Wallowa counties. Out of one thousand peo ple, probably ten need shoes every day , If you tell them about your stock, yon will, surely get your proportion of the trade; if you don't, you won't get 11. H is a simple proposition, and as true as it is simple. J Craft of the Gypsies. Gypsies Introduced the practice of palmistry Into Englnnd. This appears from a statute of 1"31 called an "note concerning Egypsyans," which recites that "afore this tyme dyverse and many outlnndysshe People, enllynge them selfoM Egyptians, using no erafte nor falcte of tnnrclinundyse, have comen iuto this Realme and gone from Shire to Shire and Place to Place, and used create snbtyll and crafty mcaues to deceyve the people that they by palmestre could tell menne nnd worn ens fortunes, and have by erafte nnd subtyltle deceyved the people of their money." .
