...YOU...
You have undoubtedly read the account in History
where John Paul Jones gave battle to one of the great
English ships with a mere two mastered schooner of only
ten guns. You will remember that when the fight was
*<oing against him, he jumped into the riggins and shout
ed aloud, “NOW’S THE TIME BOYS, GIVE IT TO ’EM
HARD ! GIVE IT TO ’EM HARD!” These few words of
encouragement brought victory to the AMERICANS. The
Euglish ship struck her flag and was towed into part a
CAPTIVE. This bit of history has a very pointed moral
that can be aptly applied to your trading business now and
during the balance of this season. We write this add so
that you may know that" NOW’S THE TIME”to save money
by trading with us, as we are selliug everything, carried
in a general store at a BARGAIN for our customers. All
we ask is a TRIAL. Yours for prosperity,

If a farmer raised a thousand
bushels of wheat and wheat is
worth a dollar a bushel, his crop
would be worth a thousand dol
lars. If he sold it and got the
money he would have a thousand
dollars to do business on. If.
however, he dribbled it out to a
thousand different people and wait
a year for his pay he would not
be able to do any business, but
would be compelled to go out oi
business and join the Grand Arm}
of Tramps. A newspaper does
business on the latter plan. It
has, however, to pay for stock anc
material every thirty days. Tin
situation is easily figured.—Ex.
