The atranger purchased a coffee pot coating 50 cents and tendered the check In pay ment. Not having sufficient change, Mr. Ritchie gave the stranger his personal check for $15 and the balance in silver. Tha stranger then went to the sore of the John Beno company, where he bought a pair of gloves, tendering Mr. Ritchie's check in payment The check was re ferred to Charles Beno, and when the lat ter took the precaution to Investigate tha stranger left the atore In a hurry.

Mr. Johns, who waa re-elected laet November for thn term be ginning January 1, 1909, took the oath of office. AH of the Incoming county officials filed their bonds and some were approved by the board. Ths largest bond Is that of James , W. Mitchell, county treasurer, which Is in the sum of $250,000.

The board approved Sheriff McOaffery's appointment with the exception of Sherman Humphrey, Janitor at the court and George L. Martin, former county Jailor, named as deputy sheriffs without expense to tha county. Action on theae two appointments were deferred. The bonds filed by the several county officers were on a printed form, which has ben used In thla county for years. The printed form makes the bond mn to the state of Iowa and some of the supervisors thought the bond should run to the county. The question of the sufficiency of the bond was referred to the county attorney, who Informed the board that the statute provided that all official bonds must run to the state. The matter waa then allowed to drop. The question of ths compensation of the sheriff In relation to the boarding, lodg ing and washing for Inmates of ths county Jail was brought up and discussed, but no action taken. It Is likely that this matter will be brought up again when the board fixes tha compensation of tha dif ferent county officials. Supervisor Baker also brought up tha matter of fees collected in tns offices of sheriff snd recordsr. Hs expressed tha opinion that thess officers should turn over ths fees quarterly instead of an nually. The matter was referred to ths oounty attorney for aa opinion. When tbs board reconvenes Monday It will select ths names for ths grand and petit juries la aaoordanos with tbs order by Judge Otssen of the district court.

Never Had lMctore Taken. One legislator this winter will undoubtedly i-undergoa new experience. In response to a request from the office of the secretary of state for a picture to place with those of otuer members In .the Oflcial Register, Representative Henry Tegeler of Dyersvll.e, Dubuque county, replies that he Is a demo crat, father of ten children and never had his picture taken In his life. If he survives this legislature, eludes newspaper men, es capes soliciting photographers and quiet sketch artists with bis record regarding a photograph unblemished he will be entitled to the credit of having remarkable forti tude. Nearly every session has its unphoto- graphed member for awhile. Last ses sion it was no other than the lecent democratic state chairman, Clint Price. He absolutely refused to surrender to the photographers and with a cold heart turned away all newspaper men. Then one day the sketch artist lolled In the press gallery and made a few sketches with pencil and pad. Next day a picture purporting to be Price appeared in a dully paper. The day following Price appeared with a supply ot good photographs for al. the newspaper boys who desired thorn. He said it had come to be a matter of self- defense.

Mathls, during his term as police Judge of Des Moines, made an agreement with three well-known bondsmen allowing them to pay to the city $5 for all men charged with intoxica tion when the prisoner was fined $10 is a fact established beyond a doubt. This Information comes Indirectly from Coun cilman John MacVlcar, superintendent of the department of public lmprovem-nt. Thla latest sensation, sprung fco soon after Mayor Mathls turned back into the city treasury over $1,300 In fees without a word of explanation, comes as a bomb to the other members of the council and city hall attaches, although some were aware of the truth.

Onarantsed. lie For sal by Bee ton Drug Co, ... A RICH HARVEST CAN ONLY BE REALIZED FROM THOROUGH CULTIVATION To Manufacturers 1 IF you wished to get tba biggest harvest from a given tract of land you would not blow seed to the winds thinly scattered over - the country. You would 1e . t t 1 plant it regularly ana sys tematically in a section no larger than you could have properly watched and cul tivated. You would then get the richest crop possi ble, and if you were wise you would not overwork your land and thus shorten its productive life, but yo would produce this year what would help the income from your land next year, and the year after, and so on. It is just so in advertising. The use of so-called national me diums' of general circulation scattering your seed too thinly over too great a territory. You may get valuable general publicity in this way but you cannot expect it to do any thorough cultivating. This is no disparagement of general mediums, for space in them is well worth what it costs, but you must not expect them to yield anything like maximum results for a given territory. You can only obtain maximum results and profit from any given locality by the means of Daily Newspaper Publicity. The newspaper will cultivate the local field as no other medium can possibly do it It goes to the home. It takes the news of the day to the home fireside, It is the messenger between the outer world and the reader you seek to reach. It sells things. By selecting any section of country which best appeals to you for the purpose, you can in a short time and at practically no cost, demonstrate the value of this great cultivating agency the daily newspaper to your entire satisfaction.
