.Tuat tha Thing.
Jferobanls, now Is tbe time to begin
your holiday advertising. Waken up. The
merchants of surrounding towns have al
ready begun telling tbe people, through the
columns of their newspapers, what great
bargains and special sales they will make
before and dnrlng the holidays. There Is
no necessity for arguing the question of
whether advertising pay or not. If you
think U don't, take in your signs and pull
down the blinds. Keep quiet tbe goose
may lay a golden egg in your woodshed.
Ills Confession.
The merchant who wrote the following
which ts rlni In an exchange, has our sin
cere sympathy. lie has confessed like a
little man and we hope that he may get
another start In tbe world: "You'd not
expect one of my age In merchandising to
engage, and hope to get a paying trade,
without the local paper's aid. And yet I
did that very thing; I opened up a store
last spring this month the sheriff took
my stock and sold it from the auction
block. Don't view me with a scornful eye,
but simply say, as I pass by: There goes a
fool. who seems to think be has no use for
printer's ink. There Is a truth as broad as
earth, and business men should know Us
worth; 'tis simply this: The public buys
Its goods from those who advertise."

What reople Find Time to Talk AVont
Hera nnd Elsewhere.
$VFanoy pictures a calmly beautiful
night. with only tbe hooting of a uleht owl,
the creaking ot the leafless branches, tbe
mournful ripple of lhi waters and - tbe
echo, perhaps, of the rifle shot at It rever
berated over hill and vale. Such a night,
we opine, was the one oa which the God
fearing band of .Moravians met tbelr sad
fate one hundred and thirty-six years ago
on next Monday. Late on that night, 41
most a century and a half ago, the mission
bouse of the Moravians was attacked,
burned to the ground and the Inmates put
to a cruel death. They were eleveu In
number Gotlelb and Susanna Andreas,
with tbelr child Johanna; Martin and Sus
anna Nltchman, Leonard Gatterniyer,
Christian Fabrlcus, clerk; George Schwel-
gert and Martin Presser. It ts unfortunate
that so Important au event in the eatly
history of our town and county Is left to go
by In default. This godfearing band of
christians deserve more than a passing
thought. They opened up to civilization,
by daring trials, misfortune and death, Car
bon county and the country surrounding.
Pboenlx-llke a prosperous little town has
sprung up from I lift nshe; of Gnadrn Hut
ten which to-day stands as a Hying monu
ment to their christian fortitude and
bravery. In the cemetery, here, only a
plain marble bbaft marks the resting place
of the martyred band, but to him who can
correctly appreciate God's blessings It tells
a wonderful story suffering, death of a
little band of disciples who went down to
death in their endeavor to build for them-
solyos liomes and the establishment of
God's word lu Carbon county. In tho
various churches next Sunday the oaslors
ehonld at I east" be able to find one word ex
pressive ot tbe heroism, the christian for
titude and bravery of the martyred band
of Moravians.
