NEW ORLEANS, Oct. IS.
Iieforo an open grave on the
shores of the Mississippi, lone
Vrd sophisticated city girl.BJisp
i ti. swoonod and finally admitted
yeaterduy that a bullet torn body
was that of Jack Kraft, New York
newspaper man and adventurer,
with whom he had started out to
see the world.
A small tattoo of an Indian
head on the forearm furnished
the Identification, along with a
pear on n knee, which (Jeorge
Kraft, older brother of Jack, who
had come from New, York, said
established tho identity beyond
any doubt.
The girl swooned a half dozen
times and attempted to fight her
way free once.
The scene was on tho banks of
the Mississippi, 55 miles below
New Orleans and one mile below
tho spot where her traveling com
panion's body went hurtling from ;
the Creole, New York-New Orleans I
boat. Revived by the sprinkling
of river water on her head she
was subjected to questioning as
natives, peeping from tho under
brush, chattered in queer old
French.
She said neither she nor Ram
Epstein, ship's steward, had shot
Kraft, but would not swear that
John McOouldrlck, second officer,
r ITiid not ; phot him." She declared
f she did not know who had shot
him.
Was Bra ton.
She said both McGduldrlck nnrt
-Epstein had come to her assist
ance when Kraft was beating and
choking her In a jealous rage. She
declared she had seen Kraft leap
overboard. She could not explain
the coroner's verdict that Kraft
was dead before he hit the water.
The girl was led over the rough
prairie to a Negro tenant's cottage,
where she was given coffee. I
Suddenly and silently a detec-1
tivo laid a bedroom slipper on her
lap. With a shriek she hurled i
the slipper across the room, jump-
ed up and fought the doors and i
walls, in nn effort to escape.
It was a slipper worn by Jack
Kraft and washed ashore with his
body.
Then the investigators drove
back to New Orleans stating thev
were convinced the girl know:!
more than she has told about th?
tragedy.
The case will be laid before
the grnnd jury tomorrows
for goods, that he should buy In
Medford. ' The best way to do is
to keep them at home where they
will always bo ready to say 'good
morning.'
"When you sit down to write a
letter away to some other section
of the country for goods that can
be bought right here at home, re
member one little thing, and that
Is. that schools provided by money
spent here in Medford were the
ones that taught you how to write
that letter."
"Loyal support of local retailers.
wholesalers, manufacturers, work
ers and home Interests of every
sort Is the Indlspensible part of the
urneu oi every iruu nuusier. now
much money do A Ou spend an
nually elsewhere that you might
keep at home to make Medford
more prosperous?"
"Medford merchants meet all
competition. Their stocks are se
lected and priced In keeping with
the cla.es of merchandise they have
to offer. Much money Is going out
of this city and county all of the
time, but many of tho merchants
keep a lot of It at home by adver
tising." "A town Is like a baby carriage
a little pushing helps: it is also
like a woman a little fixing up
Improves Its appearance.'
. .
"The only job yon can get with
out knowing anything about It is
selling. That is why there are so
many sale-men and so little sales
manship." "lilir Dollar says "That
statement points out in a startling
way one of the greatest weaknesses
in the present method of distribu
tion. The business world Is filled
with people who are trying to sell
without knowing anything about
their merchandise. As a rule they
haven't the faintest conception of
how the ortlcle is made or the serv
ice that It will give. j
"Many sales people are appar
ently put behind tho counter or on!
(he road with the idea that all
there is to selling is to pick an
article up and hold It before the'
eyes uf the prospective customer
with the price tag dangling.
That Is why there are so many
merchants looking for goods to sell
at a price, the idea being to get
values that are so startling that
no sales ability is required to dis
pose of them. It can't be done In
this day and age.
"We are gradually getting back
to the good old theory that the
person who is going to make a suc
cess at selling is the person who
knows the most i.bout his line. And
that holds for the clerks In the
stores of Medford or tho traveling
salesman out of this city.
i
" 'Fred T.' in the Hnglewood, III..
Times, wrote a little story under
the heading of "True, But Peculiar.'
It Is as follows:
"Isn't it funny? That so many
business men will get up In the
morning, shave with an advertised
razor and advertised soap, put on
advertised underwear, advertised
hose, shirt, collar, tie, and seat
seat themselves at the table, and
eat advertised breakfast food, drink
advertised coffee, put on an adver
tised hat, light un advertised cigar,
go to their place of business -In nn
advertised automobile and turn
down an advertising proposition on
the ground that It doesn't pay?"
"Yes." says "11111" Dollar, "it Is
funny, but lots of those fellows who
feel that way are usually the ones
that send a calendar out once a
year and then remark that adver
tising doesnt pay."

Beautiful hair !
Modern hair dressers arrange
tho hair no beautifully that it's
.bound to attract attention. That's
Jfhy it's so important to guard its
jcolor and lustre; keep it in perfect
condition.
There is no surer, simpler way to
do this than with Danderine. Each
time you use your brush, just
moisten it with this delicately
fragranced liquid. Then as you
draw it through your hair, it re
moves tho excess oil: brines out
the natural color; makes tho hair
fairly sparklo with new life and
lustre.
How much easier it is to arrango
the hair afterwards. How it stays
in place. And try "setting" tho
waves with Danderine. They stay
in so much longer.
Danderine quickly dissolves tho
crust of dandruff; puts the scalp in
the pink of condition; helps tho
hair to grow long, silky and
abundant!
