Turns The Tide.
The influence of newspaper advertis
ing is wonderful. It makes small stores
great. It turns the tide of business to
ward the advoriised stora as nothing
elso will. It places tho namo of the
store so strongly In tho minds of tho
people that they cannot think of dry
goods, clothing, shoes or drugs without
the name of that advertised store com
ing into thoir minds simultaneously.
By a good persistent advertising cam
paign any business house can push Its
way to tbo front. Tho very best medi
um to use In your community is your
local newspapers, as It goes to the peo
ple when their minds are easily im
pressed. The Ad-writor.

Dogs Without Muzzles.
On account of the mad dog scare In
Reynoldsvlllo two weeks ago, when six
children were bitten by a dog that had
hydrophobia and all tbe children are
now In the Magoo Pathological Insti
tute at Pittsburg recolvlng the Pasteur
troatmont fur rabies, a notice was pub
lished by president of town council and
burgess of this borough requesting all
owners of dugs within the borough to
shut up their dogs for sixty days or
muzzle them, but tbe notification
has beon Ignored by a number
of people, as a number of dogs
are still running the streets with
out muzzles. Owners of dogs should be
willing to muzzle thoir dogs for sixty
days, considering the great danger peo
ple are exposed to, especially children,
whon a mad dog runs our streets. If
they will not muzzle tboir dogs without
being forced to do so, then the law
should bo enforced. Ordinance No. 83,
which is almost entirely Ignored there
are a fow exceptions. should be strictly
enforced.
It la remarkable tbe number of dogs
thore are in town and how few the as
sessor can find owners for when he
makes the assessment.
An Answer to "Uncle William."
Oh, yes, "Uncle Will," wo adroit thut you're
num.
That we buys shouldn't lonf on the street;
We admit that It isn't tlio place to linns
'round,
For It's there with temptation we meet.
But still, "Untile Will," have you e'er paused
to think
Of the ones who are really to bhtme?
Have you tlio't of who brought all these vices
to town
That are bringing our boys down to shame?
You speak of the evils abroad In our town,
And you warn the young men to beware:
Hut hi 111 men allow all these things to exist
"Uncle Will," do you think that It's fair ?
You talk of tlio snares that are set for our
feet,
Leading boys Into habits and vice;
But why not, renioyo all these snares from our
midst
Why not banish these foes that entice?
Can you blame tho young boys for this state
or an airs,
That makes the ffood citizens blush?
Can we boys make jrood laws to protect ui
irom llitrm,
That will stop the great evil's mad rush?
No, no ! "Undo Will," Its tho man with the
voro
That Is reallv to blame for It all.
It's the man who for money or drink sells his
vote
That Is causing our young boys to fall.
