their employes are as a rule the
same. This statement will apply
to practically every advertiser
using the columns of reliable
publications. In fact, the pub
licity given their gooas is so grtat
that they must expect to have a
certain amount of pub'icity for
their manufacturing plants and
employes as well. The men at
the bead of these great industries
know that it pays to have health
ful, happy employes, just the
same as it pays to manufacture a
uniformly good article of mer
chandise.
How different do we find condi

these places that we find workers
with consumption and other
dread diseases. And it is too
often the case that infectious
diseases are spread in just this
way. It is among these over
worked and underpaid toilers
that nearly all the great strikes
occur. Remember these things
and demand that your dealer
supply you with trademarked-
advertised merchandise. You
will get a better quality of goods
and at the same time help to bet
ter industrial conditions through
out the entire country.
In these articles we have not
wished to dwell too exclusively
on the mere material things in
volyed. It has been said that
money will buy everything but
happiness and that it is a pass
port t o everywhere except
Heaven. But we may spend our
money wisely so that it will bring
a large share of happiness to our-
selves aa well as to others, or we
may spend it foolishly so that
none are benefited. Here in the
great and growing Southwest we
have our own problems. Our
farmers must contend with over-
flows, drouths and the boll weevil.
These things affect the business
man as well and in addition he
has many vexations and worries
that call for constant and on
remitting effort for him to
succeed. In previous articles we
have tried to show how it is to
the interest of the merchant and
farmer to work together and bow
when one prospered the other
would prosper also. Let us car-
ry this one step farther and
show how there is a community
of interest between the producer
and the consumer.

Tuesday Frank Foster and

being burned about the head and

most reached the serious stage,
while Jim Antram was burned
about the bead quite painfully.
It seems that the boys thought
all the gasoline was out of the
tank, but some was in some
waste and catching fire exploded
with the above result.
Peter Radford, in delivering
one of his lectures told the fol

“The average Texas farmer is
awakened by a Conneticutt

penders to his Detroit overalls,

Cleveland, washes m a Pittsburg

dries on a cotton towel made in

ness, and plows his farm, which
is covered with a Massachus
setts mortgage, with an Indiana
plow. At night he crawls under
a New Jersey blanket and is
kept Awake by a dog, peculiarly
a Texas product, and wonders ;

Madam Anna Pavlowa and Great Rus-

tional Corn Exposition,

The Dallas Chamber of Commerce
considers itself very fortunate in ha”.
Ing made a contract at the expeiwe
of |4000 for one night’s appearance of
Madam Anna Pavlowa and her famous
Russian organization that consists of
forty select solo dancers, including
Novikoff, premier danseur classlque;
Zeallch, premier danseur caractere of
the Imperial opera house of Moscow,
and Cecchettl, the premier mime of ths
Imperial opera house of St. Peters-
burg. Their repertoire consists of
ten ballets, staged with characteristic
and rich scenerv Most of the scenery
