The method of Introducing- food W the buying- public by demonstration has been universally adopted by lead ing manufacturers throughout the world. Now prominent department and grocery stores everywhere nave neat booths erected on their premises, In which to accommodate the exnert demonstrators sent out by the manu facturer. Born of the big stores even mention in their display ads the par ticular foods demonstrated. One big department atoit in California recent' ly laid particular atres in their dl play announcements upon the "free pure food show" on the fourth floor of their building. This announcement waa kept before the public for a week before the exhibit and during: the en tire month this special demonstrators' show lntJ. They had more than a dosen bomha on tha flnnr nf '. trm- eery department and constantly sew foods were there to be tasted free by anybody who cared to come. The re suit was a great throng of people dally and a popularising of the grocery de partment, unequalled heretofore by ny other establishment on the tasL 0 In the columns of an vnlno in, temporary there appeared last Tues day an article on "Mall Order Trading" which may or may riot have had a baneful Influence, u It Is oit to lend soma men to believe that their troubles are caused soU-ly by the mall- order buslne, while this I not really the cane. The mall-order system of shopping ha come and come to stay, and when our evening- contemnornrv says that "In this clty"the mall order evil has abated. The stores ar so well supplied with nw gooJ. and the prices are so reasonable, that noboly gains by buying elsewhere," It has not hit the nail on the right spot. 0 0 The mail-order evil ha not only not' abated, but instead the . system 1 bound to become a means of doing bulnes for many of the local mer- hanta, Aatorla firms can cater to numberless families, residing In In terior towns in this state, in Wash ington and Idaho. The merchants hern can buy as cheaply and to many places they have facilities for prompt ship ping which are at least equal to those of larger coast cities. 0 There are a number of mall-order house on the coast and many Arms are contemplating the opening of such a department In connection with their local business. This I a matter whlc'.i local merchants must look squarely In the face. You fight a pralrla fire by buck-flrlng. Home of (he local mer chants will have to back-fire. In order to find, new ways of disposing; of ad ditional stock. More stock they will all have to carry every day, as business increases, and consequently they must turn it over oftener, If their money Is to earn money for them. Small profits and quick returns Is the modern slog. an of up-to-date Arms. O A young man in Chicago, III., started out a few years ago with a roll-top desk, several thousand copies of a good oboe catalogue, bearing hla nnm anJ onice address, a email creJIt at sev eral wholesale shoe houses, and today he conducts a large mall order shoe business, carries a big stock and has been making good money for the past year or two. O ' The magazines and farm Journals everywhere, also the weekly newspa pers carry mall-order advertisement to the farmer, etc., lie finds It a con venient way to order gooJs and seldom does a first-doss mall order house dis appoint, statements to the contrary ,not- withstanding. Some of the large mag azines would not accept advertising from any Arm which does not, or by virtue of its financial standing (?), ennnot guarantee to protect Its read ers. In other words, these advertisers muat back up their advertisements Oi lose the chance of advertising. Our local merchants must back up their advertising, as most of them do, and look for more business besides. The mall-order field here is ripe for the I plucking bf some enterprising firms The ad-man knows of one line alone which ought to make a fortune for some man with pluck and some capital to back it up. Don't decry the mall order business. Rather go for your share of It. 0 Experience, acquired or bought. counts for nearly everything nowadays In starting a mall order department. The avernge clerk Is not capable of or ganising the help for the work, not of systematizing the books, literature. etc., required for It. In addition to all this an altogether different advertising oamiKi i l ;,-.-csaiy to mr.-.e lit mall-order work a success. It is a good field, If worked right. 0 Morrison & Johnson, who recently opened n groci-cy '' lin m'rr'il street, have overcome the disadvant ages oi an outside fruit and veavtaul show by having an open frout. Just In side of which the fruit and vegetable stands have been placed. There are several good reasons for the general adoption of this means of showing per ishable stock, The.most Important on is mai we passer-by is not apt to be annoyed by shoppers, nor arj hil. dren tempted to surreptitiously Uft a orange or apple, while every clerk nut have an eye on those getting doss to me stand. The. dirt and mud of tb street is also kept away from the goods, whlls at night the store can be promptly closed, without undue exer tlon. ' o ; The scheme Is belnsr adopted b r i Manmrup, the grocer, who Is ooen Ing a new and large store adJolnlmr ni present premises. Although In stores having a small frontage, this method does away, with windows in wnicn to show certain goods to ad vantage, generally speaking the dlsaJ vantage arising from It Is tald for b the advantages, if an outside show is wanted. O , There is, however, the store of A V. Allen, where last week fresh fruits were shown very advantageously In the corner window of bis store. In addi tlon preserved fruit, etc- were placed In the same window, thus proving the ad-man a assertion that outside shows are not an essential, t Ingenuity is brought to bear upon the window dressing. fSi Specially adapted show cases for the purpose of exhibiting certain mer chandlse In front of stores have everywhere been found a profitable In vestment, especially In larr tab I!hrnents, where the window displays were considered the most Important features. It pays to buy experience, rained by the other fellow. Don't ask him to give you all his knowledge free. He worked for IL The loast you can do is to snow some apppreclatlon. O The point Is to know how to use an advertising medium. Consult the ad man. IN CHILDHOOD AND OLD AGE Vinol Proves a Blessing. Mr. M. P. Allen bf Dixon, Tenn., 73 yeurs of age, and a member of one of our oldest anJ best families of the south, writes: "For years I suffered with a chronic cough, loss of strength and general de bllity. and a good part of the time was confined to my bed. I had doctored and taken many medicines without benefit. At last Vinol was recom mended and I tried It After taking three bottle my cough was entirely cured, my strength returned. I have gained flesh, and am feeling younger and better than I have for years. It Is for this reason that I take pleasure In recommending Vino! as the best meJl cine In the world for coughs, lung trouble and to create health and strength," Our local druggist, Mr. Chas.

I H. M. P.

Ml. Mr. Rogers says it Is such unques tionable ' testimony as the above, to gether with the knowledge of what this remarkable medicine contains tw en ables them to agree to refund money In every case where Vinol falls to give satisfaction. Vinol la not a patent medicine k. u contains In a concentrated form all of tne curative, body-bulldln an strength-creating elements of cod liver 011, but without oil or grease to upset the stomach and retard its work. Vinol gives you a hearty appetite. H noes more It tone n th tnm.o.
