"TEN PAGES
The Newport papers are complain#
of a lack of advertising patronage,
•while The Journal is forced to run two
additional pages to meet the demand
for advertisin# space. But Newport
is a dull old town anyway.
.T. (’. Cleary of Bradley county has
announced 1»is candidacy for secretary
of state in opposition to O. Ludwig,
•who is a candidate for a third term.
Paul Little, son of the governor, is
also a candidate for the position.
When a man in search of a home or
business location #oes to a town and
iinds everbody full of hope and enthu
siasaiu over the prospects of the place
lie, too, soon becomes imbued witli the
same spirit, drives down stakes and
goes to work with ecjual interest.
S,> lom>- sis there is a laige element
of cotton raisers unattiliated with tiie
Farmers' I'nion holding movement, it
cannot he made tlie success it should
lie. The principle is right, and the ]
movement is growing, hut it lacks
much of having attained its height.—
-Arkansas Democrat.
The busy men and women of the
world are they who have attained to
greatness. Many such have endured
hardships and practiced rigid econ
omy to enable them to meet the de
mands of a large family and the great
est men this country has produced
have been men who have labored with
hands and brain. After acquiring a
•competency, remem!Hiring the years
that are gone, most of them admit that
their working years were their happiest
years. _
A plan for drawing trade to a town
that has been successfully tried at
several points might be adopted to ad
vantage in Newark. The plan is as
■follows: An agreement was reached
between all the merchants whereby
they offered special sales on certain
days, each merchant selecting- some
special line of goods upon which he
made a lower price than usual. Thus
one dry goods house would sell gloves
at a speeial price, while another would
offer oargains in dress goods. One
hardware merchant would reduce the
price on axes, and on, every line of
business being- represented and care
taken than no conflicts occured.
Prizes were then offered to the farmer
bringing in the best load of grain or
the handsomest baby and the bargain
day was extensively advertised in the
surrounding country, the names of the
merchants and their special sales be
ing in all cases stated. The farmers
responded in a most gratify in# man
ner and the merchants were well pleas
ed with the plan. The idea has al
ready been carried out in several
cities. Why not try it in Newark?
Were each nation to divide its cash
among its own people each human
being in France would have $32, or $10
more than each person in our country
under similar circumstances. Mean
while. the divided cash of Great
Britian would give each Briton only
$18; in Germany the cash per capita
would amount to only $17: Russia $<>:
and Japan $3. while in Cuba each per
| son would get a two dollar bill.

Don’t Use a Scarecrow
To Drive Away the
Mail Order Wolf
You can drive him out
quickly if you use the mail
order houses' own weapon
—advertising. Mail order
concerns arc spending
thousands of dollars every
week in order to get trade
from the home merchants.
Do you think for a minute
they would keep it up if
they didn’t get the busi
ness? Don’t take it for
granted that every one
within a radius of 25 miles
knows what vou have to
sell, and what vour prices are. Nine times out of ten your prices
are lower, but the customer is influenced by the up-to-date adver
tising of the mail order house. Every article you advertise should
be described and priced. You must tell your story in an inter
esting way, and when you want to reach the buyers of this com
munity use the columns of this paper.
Good j[ Luck

The correct test of a Drug
Store is the manner in
which Prescriptions and
Medicines are prepared.
The public has a right to
demand competent, con
scientious and faithful
service in every instance
where life or health is
involved. To meet this
demand has been the con
stant effort of this store.
How well we have suc
ceeded is proven by the
constant increase in our
business. The number of
people who intrust us
with their prescriptions
and other drug wants is
continually increasing.
The public appreciates
our effort to give better
drugs and better service
than any store in town.
