ABOUT ADVERTISING.
When the meichanls of New
ark adveitise their business they
also advertise the town, and
much of the secret :*f the growth
and prosperity of .1 town is due to
the public spirit and keen busi
ness sense of its merchants who
are liberal advertisers. Commer
cial rivalry is so tense in these;
days that every effort must he
made in order that a town may!
grow and prosper. It lias long'
been universally eoneecded |
. tbe merchant who has goods •
to sell liuhyt let the peoi3» fcnmv i
it through tfrc~ rntluu-4^"*:r.—tiiA:'
newspapers, which, all admit, are
the best mediums for reaching
the people. Not i nly does adver
tising bring rich returns to the
advertiser, but also assists the
community, because towns are
judged abroad by the amount of
advertising that is seen in their
tapirs. The influence and
growth of any paper is the result
of the liberal support given it by
the merchants, and 1 lie success of
the merchants of any town is due
in a great measure to judicious
advertising. The merchants of a
great many towns do not use
pi inter’s ink as liberally as they
should. As a result they have
neither the husiuess'uor the news
papers which they should have.
They are behind the times, be
cause the world has passed tar
beyond that point where a mer
chant could sit in his door and
wait for his customers to come to
him. He must go after custom
ers, and seek business, and the
cheapest and most effective way
of doing this is by advertising in
the newspapers. The good done
the newspaper by a liberal patron
age and its consequent growth
and influence is reciprocated by
that growth and influence in hene
tiiting the community in which it
is published, which results in a
greater benefit to the advertiser
than any other class. The mer
chant who does not ndvertiso may
expei t his business to be dull and
the towns wheicin merchants do
not advertise can not expect to
ktep pace with the much of
progress.
T,bc Walnut Ridge Republican
took* occasion to unburden itself
of a lot of hot air last week be
cause I'he Journal said the Re
publican was a “great” paper and
H'yfjnhere was an opening for a
jKnocratic papet at Walnut
pfidge. We have often heard it
feaid that Uro. Dugan was the big
gest liar in Nmtli Arkansas, and
last week's outcropping of venom
only goes to more fully prove tin
charge, lie says we don't like
the way he is running his paper
and adds that we had better “learn
how to run our own little 2 x 4
dish rag before giving him advice
on how to inn a nkwsi*ai*er
Now wouldn’t that jar you? Ilis
gieat nkwsi’AI-kk is a six column
folio (size of our 2x1 dish rag)
and he actually prints one side ot
at home! We are surprised that
Editor Dugan would look down
from Ins high perch in journalism
to even reprimand an ignorant,
low down cuss who don't know
how to run a “2 x 4 dish rag.”
We are so befuddled we hardly
know whether to wipe up the
office floor with the devil and buy
a big cylinder press aud a couple
of type setting machines, oi shut
up shop and go t » hod carrying*
However, if we survive the shock
we will probably continue to “pel -
sue the even tenor of our way,”
for it is'a notorious fact that the
naked truth will jump in a slop
barrel any time lather than meet
Dugan *>n tin* street. He has
been known to handle tlie truth
so carelessly as to break it to
pieces .and then gather up the
fragments and work them up in
to a lie. And, by the way, this
explains his charge that we don’t
wide our own editorials. Hut as
we don’t care to get into a contro
versy with such an inlclccluil
giant rs Mr. Dugan, we dismiss
ihe subject and will have nothing
more to sav.

That which is generally conceded Is generally so. It has grown into
a maxim that the Kimball Company represents the greatest aggregation
of brains employed in the mating and marketing of Pianos and Organs.
Tdc energy, brains, skill and inventive gjnius drawn from all parts of
the world are employed in the building of Kimball Pianos aud Organs, and
the unlimited capital ami the unlimited ambition of the company has cre
ated iu the Kimball au exponent of ttie highest musical art. The achieve
ments of this company are unsuraassed in the history of art or manu
facture.
If you are an intending purchaser yqu shoul dinvestigatc the real
merits of these renown instruments, and in the face of such a record take
no man’s word derogatory to them, rememberiug that makers of other
instruments, iu endeavoring to build up thei' 'lea, canuot be expected
to trll the real facts about our instruments, el y’d be entitled to draw
a salary from us, and you will at ail times dec the Kimball when
the facts are known. There is no instrument inthO faithvof equal value
with the modern improvements aud valuable pai7inDeJ> Haruv) sold at
