(Scott.sblutT Star-Herald)
One of our citizens who should
know better has a bad habit of flirt
ing with hooich. In the old days he
had been quite a "soak" and t-o, the
ether nttenioon when he showed up
at home, three sheets to the wind, his
vile knew by experience what to do,
her recipe beinjr to rush him into a
tub ot warm water and then into bed,!
where alter a nap he was usually
rone the worse for wear. So, upon
his arrival she followed the usual
custom, hustled him into the tub and
turned on the hot water. Just then
the telephone rang. It was one ot
her club members, and the Indies had
much to say to each other, the con
versation, however, being violently in
terrupt! by a wild scream Horn an
other room. Dropping the phone the
wife ran to the bathroom door. "What
in the world is the mutter'.'' she a.-Keu
in wild alarm.
"Shay, dearie," called the husband.
"Do you want nie two minutes or four
minutes soft boiled or medium?"
She had lorgotttn the cold water
tap.

WHICH brings to mind
THIS tale of that popular hero,
R RICH AM Young.
FOR 'tis said that
THE aforesaid Drigham
ONCE had a lady
COME to see him,
AND she declared that
SHE had once leen
MARRIED to him.
AND that the child
AT hor side
WAS none other
THAN Brigham's son.
"WELL.'" said P.righam,
"I DON'T know,
BECAUSE, you see,
THE record were
BURNED recently. '
"HI T," said he,
"1 LL take the clvld."
AND he further
REMARKED. "What it is that
GIVES the child
SUCH a peculiarly
DEAD complexion?"
THE mother said
THAT she didn't know,
AND she left the child,
AND departed. '
BR1GHAM then turned
HIS new son I
OVER to the
NURSERY superintendent,
AND proceeded
TO forget the incident
UNTIL one day
THE superintendent
RUSHED in, wild-eytvl and
GASPED out that tlSey had
WASHED the child. 1
BR1GHAM again remarked,
"WELL, what of it?"
OR words to that effect.
"WHY," said the poop,
"THE paint came off and
THE child's an Indian."
THERE is no
MORAL to speak of
TO this story i
UNLESS it might bet
THAT Brigham
SHOULD have kept ,
HIS records in a
FIREPROOF safe.

HOW TO DO IT.
THE PEOPLE'S BOOK
(By lir.V. STEPHEN J. KPLER,
Parlor Christian Church. Alliance)
V.
2 Tim. 3-1G, Every Scripture in
spired of God is also profitable for
teaching, for reproof, for correction,
for instruction in righteousness: 17
that the man of God may be complete,
furnished completely unto every goon
work.
From the above statement of the
great A pottle to the Gentiles we can
readily understand the importance of
Bible study, also why so many people
have this book in their home.
"Pilgrim's Progress," "Quo Vndi,"
nnd many other books have leen trans
lated in many different languages and
rend by countless numtwrs, but the
Bible has leen translated into nearly
.00 languages and dialects and is read
by hundreds of thousands while other
great books are only realby hundreds.
lhere must have been a purpose in
this in the mind of the Great God who
is revealed in the Bible. This purpose
was to give man a true conception of
himself and alr-o of his liod.
The Bible reveals to man a true pic
ture of himself. When we write a
bioiTMphv of a friend, onlv the good
dualities are mentioned, but when God
pictures m:'n lie presents him as he is.
lience Abraham, Moses and David and
even the Apostles are pVturrd as men.
human beings. J his Book wm not
unit our weakness but presents us as
we a it. It helps us to take an inven
tory of self and when we find what is
lacking in the pefoet'on of character,
urws us to rm and purify our life.
It presents God as lie is, the Cre
ator and Ever-living Father. This God
i stem in his demands which he
makes of humanity. This was illus
trated in His attitude toward human
ity during the stage of infancy i.ml
childhood of the race. His kindness
anil love was ever manifested and
especially as revealed to us in the per
son of God our Lord and Savior.
The Bible is the compliment of God's
Great Book of Nature which is oon
and also may be read of all men. In
the mountains, the hills, the valleys,
in the livers, the lakes and on the sea,
in the trees, in the flowers nnd in the
grass, yes nnd in all nature may le
H'on the glory and the power of God.
This is also very noticeable in the
progress that humanity is making In
the advancement of civilization. The
one Book without the other would be
a loss of understanding.
The Bible is the Book for the living
nnd if it is good for the living wlrit
does it do for the dying? It brings
hope to the living nnd pence to the
dying. It presents our Savior who is
"Life" and "Peace."
Study it! Believe it! Practice its
teachings in dailv contact with others!
It i rightly named "Bible" or "The
Book."
A closing word from Wilbum 11.
Seward an American statesman i.-:
"The whole hope of human progress
is suspended on the ever grow in.; in
fluence of the Bible."

WHAT IT COSTS TO STOP
(Tibs and Nibs)
Twenty years ago one of the lcst
known names in national advertising
was James Pvle's Penrline. The ad-
ertising hnd run continuously since!
is ill. In 1!04 the appropriation for
that year amounted to ."i)0,00().no,
which was a great deal of money in
those days. In li'07, the concern hav
ing passed into the hands of an estate,
the trustees saw an opportunity by
which they could save many hundred
of dollars by cutting out advertising.
Penrline lost favor rapidly nnd in 1!14
tried to come back. Several hundred
thousand dollars were spent, which
amount would have made a consider
able dent on the market for a new pro
duct, but Penrline was not n new pro
duct. It was trying to come back
which was infinitely more difficult.
In l!ir. according to our informa
tion, Pennine was sold to a competi
tor for just the cost of the machinery
as junk, and the stock on hand as raw
material.
Another nationally known product
stopped advertising for one year nnd
it took from five to seven years to
regain the volume it lost.
A merchant can build up n splendid
business in his town if he will ndver
tise constantly, and it will continue
to grow as long as he advertises, llm
cannot afford, however, to stop ftdrer
tising, as the growing generation musk
be constantly kept informed no u to
obtain new customers; and th older
generation must be kept re miiwtaL It
is only the older generation who re
members Pearline. The young man
ond woman know nothing of it.
About IS per cent of our population
each year reaches the age of under
standing or purchasing ability. You
must gain the attention of these 18 pep
cent, obtain their good will, together
with retaining the business of the older
folks, or gradually disintegrate.
Advertising is the modern miracle
worker, but it must be done consistent
Iv and constantly. You cannot stop in
the middle of the stream and expect
to get across.
