FREIGHT CARS CROSS
FROM U. S. TO CUBA
Did you know that you can loud a
railroad car In Philadelphia with car
pets, textiles, coal, iron or any commod
ity and send It Into Havana ?
Fact! There may be seen today in
i a capital of Cuba freight cars of the
mnsylvanla, Reading und Baltimore
. Ohio as they were dispatched from
Is city.
That Is a new thing—to transport
.rs across 100 miles of ocean to the
llroads of a foreign land.
And this means that the $14,000,000

mare any longer, but has become a
’ cautlful, yea, a profitable reality
There never was a finer example than
this of sending a good dollar to bring
mack a flock of bad dollars and getting
esults. This Is what happened
The old Standard Oil magnate put his
514,000,000 into that hobby known as the
Key West railroad. It Is a line which
tpans the many Islets and intervening
lea from tho tail-end of Florida's main
land to Key West.
But 100 miles of ocean separate Key
West and Havana. Sending a freight
ear to the former point seemed like
dispatching It Into the realms of mere
space.
"Let ns build railroad floats and send
our loaded cars right Into Havana," Mr.
Flagler's younger and courageous help
eis suggested. And it was done
1 now have the word of the president
of that railroad that an expenditure of
{SOO.OOO for floats Is going to earn a good
profit, not only upon Itself, but upon the
other $14,000,000 that looked like a dead
j investment.
I The rush to send goods tA rail to
I Havana Is so great that an embargo
Ims been placed by the Key West line
upon shipments.As many as 600 cars
were waiting at one time this month for
floats to get to Cuba
In this instance a good dollar has
rescued more than seventeen had ones

SCARCITY OF CAVALARY
REMOUNTS FOR U. S.
SAN ANTONIO—The European war
haa so stripped the United States of
good horses that United States army
officers have admitted a serious short
age of cavalry remounts.
General Funston has combed Texas
without result for available animals
capable of standing up under hard
. ampalgnlng. The buyers of France,
Italy and Oreat Britain have swept
Texas bare of cavalry animals.
St. Louis, Kansas City, Atlanta, Chi- ;
cago and smaller horse markots now'
are being Investigated by army officers
in hope of obtaining a sufficient supply
in a hurry. ere also, however, tho
irmy men found that the buyers for
warring nations of Europe had preced
ed them.
American cavalry regiments are report
ed to be short now of remounts needed
in real campaign work, and should many
be lost in fighting the problem would
become grave. State cavalry regiments
too, are reported as generally deficient
in cavalry animals.
This is considered important for, in
ease the Mexican campaign develops and
the need arises to send all the regular
cavalry Into the southern republic, na
tional guard cavalry regiments proba
bly will h© the first to b** called for bor

Advertising Is An

Not an Expense, and Should be
Treated as Such
Because it has been the habit
of some merchants to look upon
it as an expense, A WRONG
VIEW HAS BEEN GAINED
Perhaps the misconception arose
from the fact that in bookkeep
ing it has been the habit to
charge advertising to expense.

Only the man who looks upon
advertising as an expense, who
is afraid of it, prejudiced against
it, loses money in advertising.
The man who treats advertis
ing as an investment and gives it

quires—knows that every dollar
