Painless Parker, the famous dentist. says: l have lound that any man can become rich if he advertises in the newspapers and gives the people a good run for their money. The fellow- who doesn't advertise gets lost in the shuitle. You have to tell the people who you are and what you are, what you can do and what you have for sale and then make good. Success isn't accidental. If you don't deliver, on the scrap pile you go "I have built up the largest dental practice in the world, having 2i differ ent offices, by advertising and by doing the best dental work I know how tc produce. And by doing so much work I have been able to make prices a good deal less than if I had riddled along o.. a small scale, I have fine offices at 755 Main Street, Pendleton, and 326 Wasn ington street. Portland, and people liv intr many miles away go there to have their teeth fixed up according to my well known painless methods. It's great thing to advertise!

North Dakota, which, under irrespon sible leadership, permitted itself to be come the testing ground of that politi cal upstart movement called the Non- Partisan League, is now reaping the whirlwind of its sowing. Among its experiments was a state-owned bank, tnd enthusiastic Leaguers rushed to de posit their dollars, discrediting In large measure the national or regular state banks of the commonwealth. They are at present experiencing that sensation which arises from everything going out and nothing coming in. as unfortunate ly for the depositors, they are permitted to deposit all the money they can, but for the time being at least, they are unable to make withdrawals. There is consolation in the thought that there are forty-seven other states the Union and that they are now given the opportunity to observe close ly and then draw inferences. It is rather rough on North Dakota, but Experience is always rough in its methods. The Manufacturer. JOHN L. ETHERIDGE. John L. Ethcridge's fall was no more spectacular man nis rise was magnui- cent.

Society met with the content committee of the Lex ington C. E. Society of the Christian church to decide the points to be count ed in the coming contest between the two societies. The points decided upon w-ere participation, attendance, church attendar.ee, specials, etc. Both societies are very enthusiastic over the contest. The Heppner sociel has the Lexirtrton society outnumbered in members but as the contest is to be cenducted on a percentage basis the two societies will hi'.ve an equal oppor tunity to win. As tins is the first con test between the two societies, both feel confident of "brineing horr.e the bacon." The losing society will enter tain the winning society at the close of the cont st. home society win. succeeded in turning deals, very likely he would have been one of the big permanent successes of the city. His reckless expenditures for erhead expense, public work, char ities and churches may have been so heavy as to have rendered his success impossible. Certain it Is, he was a princely donater. From a New Jersey penitentiary, with a record as a two-termer, to the pres tige he' enjoyed for two years here in Portland, was a mighty leap. His rise fiom the depths was within a period of ten years. His nerve was colossal. With a pris on recori to niue, 11 woum nave uceu supposed that he would have shunned publicity and avoided enmities and an tagonisms. His course was the con trary. He gloried in public activity 01 the kind that won publicity, and glor ied in the publicity and comment creat ed by his activity. And he leaped into ontroversy, some of It hitter, with a r,irit of defiance that one would think Turn out and help your coulJ oniy t,e based upon a conscious- The Gift Basket originated at Christmas time but we carry it through all the year.

Look at these. special prices for the week, they're mighty interesting. that his detractors would be helpless to tear him down. On the night of election he was confronted with the threat of exposure before the great asse-nblage guthered in the Armory, unless he with drew. Rut he was not built of the re treating kind of stuff. He dehed those who threatened him, and appearing be fore the throng, made an impassioned confession of his past. I'nder the stress "f the occasion, he did not appear to good advantage, but made a talk that sounded wibl and inconherent. Yet such was the appeal of hie daring ant! his personality that he was nearly elected, coming within a few score votes of winning. The strain evidently was too much for him. so he decided to get away. We doubt whether he even entertained the notion that his finances were In such shape there would be a crash and a prosecution. Meanwhile he had made another of those deals with Fred Mor ris, whereby the latter was to take the business back. Evidently when Eth erldge took over the business In the first plate It was In poor condition. He had built It up to immense volume mostly on nerve Instead of real capital. Hut when real money gives out. nerve cannot carry a financial undertaking along indefinitely In the face of enemies bent on destruction, and the real money apparently was not there at any time except as furnished by customers. The lesson of the whole affair Is ob vious. It la to make money before you spend It. not spend money before you make It, especially when the money ou spend belongs to others.Oregoii Voter Transfer and General Hauling We do a transfer and general hauling business of all kinds.
