Stores that describe their goods in
the newspaper make sales quicker than
those that do not advertise. People go
into the advertised store with the im
pression of the goods so thoroughly
■tamped in their minds that they know
just what they want, what it costs and
all about it. If they go to the stores at
all that do not advertise, they have the
clerk take down everything upon the
■helves and tell them all about it, tak
ing two or three times as much time.
Advertising is the greatest help the
salesman has. Advertising placed in

it

detail)and began to say her creed. At

Letter to Jackson & Mitchell,
iiutler, I'a,
Dear Sirs: ShufFert Hardware Co,
Hickory, NC, bought a car-load of
paint: after selling it a few months,
found-out it measnred seven pints a
"gallon."
Returned it to the maker and credit
ed customers with what they had lost
from short measure.
What do you thiuk of short-measure
paint? Don't you think it half white
wash? Half the paiuts are part white
wash.
Go by the name: Devoe lead-and-zinc.
No whiting or clay in that: full-measure
besides. A gallon Devoe is worth two
of whitewash paint.
Yours truly

•Japan and Her War.
The most fascinating series of war
stories that has yet come to America of
the conflict of the Russian and the Jap
is that from Will Levington Comfort iu
The Pittsburg Dispatch, which begau
two weeks ago Mr. Comfort is a young
writer who has already achieved dis
tinction in two wars, having served
with the United States troops in Puerto
Rico during 1898, and then spent three
years in the Philippines, whore he
wrote some of the most thrilling war
tales that have been published siuce the
j rtays of the Rebellion.
| Mr. Comfort sees war from the stand-
I point of the soldier, the man in ranks
rather than the Gen. He will follow the
' march of the forces of the Mikado
| through Korea and his descriptions of
the scenes during the actual land fight
ing are looked forward to with interest
by those who have read his wonderful
stories of the Philippine struggle. Mr.
Comfort will write from the Far East
exclusively for The Dispatch.

Church Notes.
There is a well founded complaint
that in these days young people are not
trained to read the Bible as formerly.
In the first place, the practice of holding,
family prayers nas been given np very
largely, whereas it used to be the com
mon custom among all church member*
The children grew up hearing the Bible
read daily were nsually required to read
one or more chapters a day and to com
mit a certain number of verses to mem
ory.
The truth is tdat there is not the rev
erence tor the Bible nor the stimulant
to study that there formerly was.
This is a great pity, but that it is true
is show n Dy a test made dy the New
YorK Herald. It sent to professors of
three colleges and high schools a list of
ten quotations from the Bible and six
teen from lay works that are well
known or ought to be. and asked them
to examine their senior pupils on them
Not one could answer correctly. Only
one knew that che ten quotations from
the Bible came from that sonrc*\ and he
could not give the books correctly. Yet
everyone of them is familiar to the
older generation, and that there should
be such lack of knowledge in young
I>eople about to graduate is lamentable
"There was once a minister in Hart
ford," said Mark Twain, "who had a lot
of boys in his Sunday school who we:e
in the habit of staying away on the Sun
day when the big steamer City of Hart
ford docked in the morning.
"One Sunday the minister came down
to Sunbay school and found all the boys
there He was profoundly affected.
" Boj's.' he said,'you cannot imagine
how much this exhibition of loyalty on
your part to the Sunday school - affects
me. When I came by the docks this
morning and saw the City of Hartford
there. '
'• 'Gee whiz!' shouted the boys in
chorus, 'is she inV and they left in a
body."

SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE NEXT WEEK.
"Soldiers of Fortune" is Mr Richard
Davis' first important, if not quite his
fir-t. venture into the field of dramatic
writing, his novel-play "Soldiers of
Fortune." being dramatized for the
stage by Mr. Augustus Thomas. The
lines are written with exceeding grace:
the dialogue is fluent and bright. The
characters are drawn with definiteness
and the main thread of the story is
kept well in hand.

B. & B,
about mail orders
When one thinks that people living
hundreds—yes, thousands of miles from
this store are offered the same facilities
to select from large assortments of the
World's choicest and most stylish goods
as people living one block away, it
doesn't seem hardly possible, yet, it's
true.
Onr nsw Spring Catalogue is so sys
tematically arranged and we're so liber
al with samples the store is virtually
iirouvht to yonr door.
Possibly you've been reading these ads
week in and week out for several years
md have never yet tried our method.
Let us suggest that you do so today—
we can prove it pays, and pays so well
von'll be permanent in yonr preferences.
For example, send for samples of
either of these items following—
-25c Madras, 15c—it took one of the
largest deals the Dry Goods business
ever knew to get the price—loo,ooo
yards bought—and we positively say it's
real genuine 25c goods and so sold all
over this country—full 82 inches wide,
93 different styles to select from—all
stripe effects in combination colors, Red
and White, Green and White, Tan and
White, Lavender and Wbite, Blue and
White, Pink and White, and Black and
White—be definite about colorings you
prefer.
Taffeta and Lonisine Silks for Shirt
Waist Suits are the rage in fashion
centers like Paris and Berlin.
Remember there are 67 departments
in this business, and if it's Dry Goods,
or anything else you're wanting, we sell
it for a small profit.
Don't fail to watch these ads every
week—always something special.
