SALESMANSHIP OF HIGHEST
CHARACTER.
"Advertising is salesmanship of the
highest character, and, with a single
exception, religion, is the greatest
force in the world," is what A. O.
Loomis told the retail merchants of
Spokane, Wash., at their recent con
vention. "It will make you know the
one thing in a thousand that is worth
knowing; reduce the selling cost of
any commodity, and so reduce the
cost of the article itself; build a
mighty institution of industry from an
insignificant beginning in a few years;
and, last and best, make the merchant
who uses it more prosperous, the town
in which he lives more prosperous
and the land around him more valu
able." In other words the newspaper ad
vertising columns create a mutuality
of interest between . the seller and
buyer. Advertising reduces tbe sell
ing cost, thus saving money for the
seller, and reduces the actual cost,
thus bringing economy to the pur
chaser. The newspaper advertising
columns are the basis of co-operation
between buyer and seller.
"I intend keeping my eye upon
these gentlemen and not to unneces
sarily put any-, weapons into their
hands," Colonel Roosevelt quotes Lin
coln as having said.
. In the matted of political attacks it
seems to be just one Wilson after
another.
Senator La Follette says "politic
ians make asses of themselves." True.
But the Senator's observation would
have been much more interesting had
he mentioned a few names. .
Every inmate of Sing Sing and Ban
nemora is in favor of the recall and
in- favor of one term only.
DON'T BE ENVIOUS.
The men or women who envy
those who happen to be able to
dress well and to enjoy the pleasures
of life a little more than those who
are compelled to work continually
will be miserable all their days, for,
no matter how high they may get,
they will find others still higher.
The envious person is never satisfied
and never can be.
The Inhumanity of War and
What Its End Would Mean
By ABRAHAM GRUBER..
AR is ORGANIZED
HUMAN BEINGS as
must be destroyed. The
ness of soul and great intelligence of the men to. be killed
make the killing more atrocious, but they are not the slightest pro
tection. The nations of the earth in preparing for war are today hut
SPENDERS OF MAN'S HARD EARNED WAGE. They are
as far away from the right mission of men as evil is from good. If,
when war is declared, the kings and the male members of their fami
lies arid th? presidents and their children were compelled to march
in the front ran';, hi every battle wars would cease. ' ,'
WITH THE END OF WARS WOULD COME A PROPER SETTLE
MENT OF Mri3T OF OUR SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC TROUBLES.
MUCH OF TisE HUNGER, MISERY AND POVERTY OF OUR PRES
ENT CIVILIZATION, WOULD BE GONE FOREVER IF THE MONEY,
TIME. PHYSICAL AND MENTAL ENERGY NOW DEVOTED. TO THE
PURPOSED OF WAR WERE DEVOTED TO EDUCATION, A BETTER
WAGE T'j THE WORKINGMAN AND THE HELP AND CARE OF
THE LAf.'GE ARMY OF UNFORTUNATE BUT, GOOD PEOPLE WHO
INHABIT THE EARTH.

ager. These votes will be counted
from time to time and the exact stand
ing of each contestant will be pub
lished in both the Weekly and Dally
Enterprise: .
In these days of "strenuous times"
in which we are now living, the daily
newspaper is deemed a necessity. The
Daily Enterprise fills a long felt want
in this community by supplying the
news, both local. -and general, in a
readable form. Any contestant who
enters this contest and solicits sub
scriptions will be accorded a hearty
welcome everywhere, for sooner or
later every one will want to subscribe
for Clackamas county's leading news
paper. THOMAS SHUTE WAS
I
In the death of Thomas Shute at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Brown, son-in-law
and daughter, in Maple Lane,
there was the passing of more than an
ordinary man. , He was born in New
Hampshire nearly 100 years ago, and
came West through the Ohio and
Mississippi valleys to California, and
from California he came to Oregon
and settled in Clackamas county.
He was a citizen of high standing
wherever he lived and was always ac
tive in promoting the best interests of
society. He served his native state
in the Legislature and in the judiciary,
and in all the positions he was called
upon to fill he justified the confidence
and expectations of the people. Frank
T.- Shute, of Highland, this county,
is his son.
The funeral services conducted by
Dr. Ford, were largely attended by his
neighbors, and friends of Mr. and Mrs.
Brown and Mr. Frank T. Shute. His
example of fidelity to public trusts is
worthy of commendation and emula
tion. T
OF FAIRFAX PRIZE
Mrs. Lena Charman entertained the
Fairfax Club at her home on Ninth
and Main streets, the highest score
being made by Mrs. H. S. Mount.
Refreshments were served and a most
enjoyable afternoon was spent. The

the home of Mrs. C. W. Evans on

J. J. Tobin, Mrs. C. W. Evans, Mrs.

Happy Woman.
Oh. see the fat lady:
How happy she looks.
And why is she so happy?
Her dressmaker tells her that her
dress makes feer look thin.
But does it?
Never mind that Her husband tells
her she looks thin and her friends all
tell her she looks thin.
But does she not know she is fat?
Yes, child, but she thinks they all
really think she is thin, and that is
what makes her happy. Chicago Post
Substitute For Garters.
A cbaruiiug story of a child is told
by Katheriue Busbey in "Home Life
In America:"
"One spring day I heard a small
voice at my porch ask of the maid:
" 'Please may 1 come in and soap my
legs?' "
"Mistrusting my ears. 1 investigated
and found it to be the six -year-old
daughter of a friend, and I bad not
misunderstood.
"She bad started for Sunday school
and found, to her dismay, that her
socks had a persistent tendency toward
her low shoes, because, as she explain
ed earnestly:
" 'They will not stick unless you soap
your legs.' "

Sea Serpents.
Sea serpents date back to the days of
Aristotle, who wrote: "Tbe serpents
of Iibya are of enormous size. Naviga
tors along the coast report having seen
a great quantity of bones of oxen,
which they believe without doubt to
have been devoured by the serpents.
These serpents pursued them (the sea
men) when they left tbe shore and up
set one of their triremes."
Glaus Magnus wrote in the middle
ages of a sea serpent 200 feet long and
20 feet thick which baunted rocks and
caves near the seaeoast, tbe old writer
adding. "And- be puts up his head on
high like a pillar and catcheth away
men, and be devours them."
Filing Steel.
If a little chalk be rubbed on a file

An Odd Court Incident.
Sensational incidents are not uncom
mon in tbe closing stages of famous
criminal trials! One of tbe most re
marknble occurred iu Melbourne on the
last day of the trial of Ned Kelly,
known as the "ironclad bushranger of
Australia." A knife dropped from a
gallery overhead and fell at tbe feet
of the desperado in tbe dock: Me bad
every temptation to grasp it and put
an end to his existence, for there was
not 'tbe slightest chance of his escap
ing the gallows But it was promptly
picked up by a bailiff., and its owner
was arrested and brought before the
judge He pleaded that the occurrence
was purely accidental, and the expla
nation was accepted by tbe court.

- Since the arrival of Dr. Madison
here in Oregon City, much favorable
comment has been passed upon the
healing powers, possessed by this man
of science over disease. Each -day
crowds of humanity flock to his of
fices in the Electric Hotel Annex, from
all parts of the city of Oregon City,
and in fact from airthe surrounding
country. ,; The sick, the lame, and the
afflicted come to be treated by this
expert. It is said that Dr. Madison's
treatment is unknown by other phy
sicians. No knife for the cripple or
poisonous drugs for the diseased com
prise any part of his treatment. Noth
ing but the miraculous art of blood
less surgery and the "juices of the
green plant." Every day wonderful
cures have been" effected.
Dr. Madison has scores of convinc
ing testimonials at his offices. They
tell stories of. human suffering reliev
ed, which have rarely been equalled
in the annals of medical and surgical
history. Almost every one was at one
time given up by the doctors either
to die or spend the remainder of their
life in bed or on crutches. Some of
these; cures were wrought here in
Oregon .City at the offices in the Elec
tric Hotel Annex, where he is now
giving treatments daily. Some are
our Oregon City citizens, known and
respected here. Some live in various
parts of the state and some from oth
er states. ,, '
No matter what the nature of your
malady is, or of how long standing,
don't give up hope until you have con
sulted this great physician, whose
wonderful cures are already the talk
of the town. His vast experience and
adept ability to diagnose disease,
makes it almost impossible to estimate
his worth in dollars and cents. Were
Dr. Madison to appropriate these in
herent gifts he possesses to the ex
clusive aggrandizement of his purse,
the services would be beyond tbe
reach of only the very wealthy; but
Dr. Madison is not the slave of purely
mercenary ambitious, he considers
his prime mission is to relieve as
much suffering us possible m the
space of time he is alloted to each
territory. Dont hes'tate to call. Con
sultation free. Will remain Oregon
City until Feb. 20, closing at. 5 p. m.

"There is only one road to suc

"And how shall I know the
road?" inquired the budding young
man.

fortune, "you go right along this
path of adversity until you reach
the first turn to the righL"
"Yes, yes."
"AncJ you'll find a road barred
