A The Real Test of Value Publishers of magazines and periodicals of a general nature are frequent newspaper adver tisers. They recognize the dally news paper as the medium to use when they want to make actual sales of their product. Announcements in the news papers send people to the stands I to buy the publications. In Just the same way the ad vertising of nny National product In the newspapers sends custom ers to the local retailers to make actual purchases.

FRIEND LIKE STOP-LOOK—LISTEN ' TONIGHT the mobilization of the voters of Pennsylvania and nation will have been completed. For months the IKMICS of the campaign have L>een presented to the people and It must be assumed that all intelligent per sons are thoroughly informed as to what Is Involved In the election of to-morrow. There is little excuse for any misunderstanding of the situation. Fucli voter must share the responsibility of the outcome and it is for him to determine when he enters the polling place what Is best for this country and the State. WHY are there hundreds of honest laboring people idle in Harrisbiirg and upwards of .1,000,000 in the United States? WHY are factories and railroad shops running half time? WHY are the earnings of railroads reduced to a point where they can not pay dividends? WHY are our earnings less and cost of living higher? WHY are we assessed with what is called a WAH TAX when we are at peace with the ,-vorld? WHY' has the government income been reduced, making u special WAH TAX necessary? WHY all tills Idleness and loss in government income in 1911? WHY the loss of the industry and prosperity which we enjoyed up to twelve months ago? WHY was the business depression said to be psychological before August Ist, and later charged to thv war? THERE IS A REASON The Democratic party got possession of the Executive and Legislative branches of our government March 1913, and changed our tariff system from a protective to a NEAR FREE TRADE basis, and put our workmen and manufacturers In direct competition with foreign labor—so cents per day in Euro(te; 7 cents per day in China, The War in Europe is not the cause—THAT is an excuse for the result of Democratic legislation. VOTE THIC REPUBLICAN TICKET and put an end to GOVERNMENT BY EXPERIMENT, and restore con fidence, wages and prosperity. WHAT WILL PENNSYLVANIA DO? Here In Pennsylvania the Issues have been obscured so fur as It was possible for the Democratic machine to obscure tlicin by u campaign of misrepresentation, abuse and hypocrisy such as lias never been known hi this Commonwealth. Notwithstanding the State-wide primary system advocated and enacted Into law with the aid of the very forces which have violated its spirit in the first open election the Palmer-McCormlck machine has striven lii every way to mislead the people and to secure an endorsement of the fallacies of the Washington administration by the election of the two men foisted upon the voters or Pennsylvania by the man in the White House. While pretending to direct their assault against Senator Penrose they have actually been scheming in every way to get control of the State government In order to build up a machine that might be used in continu ing Democratic control at Washington for four years after tfaifi. Dr. Murtin G. Brumbaugh, the Republican candidate for Governor, has gone before the people on a straight forward declaration of principles as progressive as any candidate ever proclaimed as Ids pledge to the people.
