Mills, factories, railroads, theaters, h
tels, hanks, etc., find that newspaper
advertising Is the best advertising
Even churches are learning to adv
Use. The mossbapk business man i
expecta customers to hunt him up un
solicited Is rapidly passing out of ex
istence. In recent years no class of ad
vertising has grown more rapidly thnn
hank advertising. \
The manufacturers of breakfast foods
have advertised so extensively they
have forced the manufacturers of Hour,
the ordinary mill men. to advertise
their brands of flour In the newspa
pers. something many of them never
did before. They found their sales were
being materially reduced by the use
of breakfast foods, and the various
preparations which have been so free
ly advertised, and most *of which have
little merit
Newspaper advertising has become a
necessitty In evsry line of business
which depends upon public patrorihge
for Its existence. In soma of the cit

doned all other forma of advertising
and rely on newspaper advertisements,

Older Than the Chinese.
Tom the Chicago Chpontcls.
Older even than China, the oldest
xlsttng nation, are the cliff dwellings
of Southwestern United States, homea
f a race whose very name has per
ished from earth. Explorers, pusr.ltng
through the Mancos and Casa Verde
Canyons of Arlsona and New Mexico,
have found the houses of this strange
people In the wildest snd most Insc-
•Ibl© of the mountatn sides. Did
cliff-dweller* antedate the pyra
mids of Egypt? Were they* of blood
relation to the early Inhabitants of
the land where the Nile la god? Borne
sTbdente are prepared to answer both
questions affirmatively and to give
what is to them abundant proof. The
pottery from their long-wrecked homes
suggests Egypt, and the few Inscrip
tions found have similar suggestions.
Mummies, bodies wrapped in cloth,
feethers from the breast of the tur

among the cliffs, and. In bone and htlr
