GEORGIA GETS A SLICE.
An Amendment Will Mean $15,
000 to $20,000 for the State.
By R. M. Lamer.
Washington, April 21—The
House this afternoon passed the
biil amending the existing law
relative to the reimbursement of
the different states for certain
expenditures they made in the
payment of troops, which volun¬
teered for the war with Spain,
Owing to some misunderstand¬
ing relative to the decision of the
Controller of the Tteasury con¬
cerning these claims, the officials
of some states failed to file their
claims within the original time
limit. It was for the purpose of
correcting this and securing to
the states the return of all the
money due on thi3 account that
the bill, which passed to-day,
was introduced. It is understood
that that under it Georgia will
get between $15,000 and $20,000.
Gov. Terrel] has appointed
Judge Janes, of Odartovvn, to
represent tho state in the- collec¬
tion of the money.
Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Con¬
tains Mercury,
a.s mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the
whole system when entering it through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles
should never be used except on prescrip¬
tions from reputable physicians, as the
damage they will do is ten fold to the
good you can possibly derive from them.
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Q., con¬
tains no mercury and is taken internally
acting directly upon the blood and mu¬
cous surfaces of the system. In buying
Hall’s Catarrh Cure be sure you get the
genuine. It is taken internally and
made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. .T. Cheney
& Oo. Testimonials free.
Sold by all Druggists, 75c per bottle.

Representative Adamson of
Georgia recently told a story
which illustrated true good fel¬
lowship, says the Washington
Post. He had been campaigning
in Georgia on foot and was twen
t/-five miles from home. It be¬
came necessary for him to go
home and he tried to secure a
conveyance, but all the teams
were busy on the farms. Final¬
ly he went to a man whom be
knew very well and said:
“Bill, I have to got home, and
I want a rig to take me. You’ve
got to get me one.”
“Adamson.” he replied, “we
are five nu'nths behind witb our
work here, and it is next to im¬
possible to get a horse that can
be spared, but there isn’t any¬
thing I won’t do fer you. I tell
you what I’ll do. I’ll walk home
with you.”
Best cough Medicine for children
When you buy a bough medicine for
small children you want one in which
you can place implicit confidence. You
want one that not only relieves but
cures. You want one that is unques¬
tionably harmless. You want one that
is pleasant to take. Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy meets all of these con¬
ditions. There is nothing so good for
the coughs and colds incident to child¬
hood. It is also a certain preventnre
and cure for croup, and there is no dan¬
ger whatever from whooping cougli
when it is given. It has been used in
many epidemics of that disease with
perfect success. For sale by Lewis
Drug Co.
At the outbreak of the war the
medical department of St. Peters¬
burg should have had in store
about $15,000 worth of lint. There
was none. The official explana¬
tion is that the lint was “eaten
by rats.”

The Importance of Advertising
It is difficult to overestimate
the importance of advertising in
planning for the establishment of
a new retail store in any line.
Cases are rare where there is an
actual demand for more stores
—where public necessity.makes
it almost imperative that some
one shall engage in the business
of supplying his neighbors’ wants.
In a case of that kind, the mere
fact that the store was open and
ready for business would bring
people in.
But in ordinary circumstances,
such as are met and must be con¬
sidered by the average man who
contemplates going into retail
business, things are vastly dif¬
ferent.
It does not require a great
amount of ready cash to open
and stock a store nevv-a-days.
A very few hundred dollars of
cash, wisely invested, will make
a fine showing on tho counters
and shelves; the man who can
put up some cash can secure
credit for a great deal of stock,
also.
Locations are not impossible to
find, perhaps the choicest may
all be pre-empted, but fair to
good places are to bo secured.
Experience is desirable; but many
men have suceeded in business
who began keeping store without
previous experience. And be¬
sides, that is an asset which one
accumulates every day—some¬
times, it is true, at considerable
expense.
But it seems quite clear lhat
“going into business” is easy—
one might say “fatally” so.
Given a location and a stock,
acquired by not particularly dif¬
ficult means, and tho embryo
merchant is ready for—
Customers.
And there is the vital point.
Unless, he has customers of
what avail is all else? And how
is he to get customers? Th ere’s
just one way—advertise.
While “there’s just one way,”
there are innumerable variations
of that way. And one or sever¬
al of these variations must be re¬
lied on to get customers for the
store.
Assuming tha^gpods and prices
and store methods are right, it.
may be further assumed that the
customers who come once will
probably come agaiij. If the re¬
sults of the first visit are partic¬
ularly satisfactory, the customer
may be relied upon to do more or
less missionary work by relating
to friends the success of her ini¬
tial expedition to the new stole.
All of which ■ is tanta-mount to
saying, “Once get ’em started
and its easy 4o keep ’em com¬
ing-’:’
.
Considering all these things,
can it be denied that the man
who is possessed of a good ad¬
vertising plan, even though his
more tangible-resources are lim¬
ited, has a great advantage over
the man who may have more cash
capital but no such plan?
The man who can get people
into his store by advertising will
turn his stock more frequently,
and increase it, and build up his
business right from the start.
The other man may have as good
a stand and stock, but unless
people come in, of what use are
they?
Therefore, the plan of adver¬
tising for a projected business is
of the most vital importance.
He who has such a plan project¬
ed is justified in risking all he
has and can borrow in establish¬
ing his store. He who has no
such plan is quite likely to fini
the mercantile life a thorny, up¬
hill road which ends in disaster.
