Did you ever think what your ad
in the newspaper is doing for you?
When you close your store in the even
ing and go home to your family and
lireside, not thinking about your busi
ness at all, then it is that the paper
Is being pored over in hundreds of
homes—the homes from which your
trade is drawn. And there is your ad
doing its work silenty, but surely, and
if you have taken the pains to make
it attractive, its work will be ail the
more attractive. This is repeated over
and over again, and is no doubt what
inspired some writer to call newspa
per advertising a “silent drummer.’’

Several young ladles in an Ohio
town have organized an anti-kissing
society and hope to establish branch
orders in every town and county in
the United States. The anti-kissing
socelty may be all right for Ohio, or
Borne other eastern states where the
women are so homely that those of
the masculine persuasion have no de
sire to kiss them but in a county like
Holt or a town like O’Neill, which is
noted for its beautiful young ladies,
there is no danger of the order ever
getting a foothold.
