GRKATHR CARE FOR THE PIONEER WOMEN.
Every now and then there is an agitation for the establishing in
tfcc Territory of a home for aged women, apart from the Pioneer** Homo
fc» men. The matter will lilre’y be brought forcibly before the next
Legislature. We agitated the subject when the laat Legislature was in
aemion, and expressed the opinion that some greater provision should be
made for the eare of pioneer women. From the discussion that followed
we are now inclined to believe that the women themselves would prefer
to receive from the Territory a sum that would permit them to lire and
pay for their care with friends and neighbors rather than to be isolated
and away from their old surroundings. There are not many in the
entire Territory who are absolutely without means and it is not thought
that more than a score eould be induced to go to a Home, for which the
expense of maintaining would be quite considerable. The aged pioneer
woman, as well as the man, should receive every possible consideration
from the Territory, but it is a serious question whether they could not
be better and more economically provided for among friends than by
sending them to a Home. There are numerous cases where the amount
now furnishd «hgfc,/tyrt>itut<r woman is not sufficient to perpiif her to live
Jn any degree of comfort. The Legislature should make a more liberal
provision for her necessities.

Stick to your business—
* And Advertise !
" There was a time when business men didn’t advertise—in the sense
in which we understand advertising today. Not so long ago advertising
was looked upon as a more or less needless expense—if not as a more or
leas idle luxury. But now advertising is regarded as a necessity, as an
investments; and, by wise business men, it is considered an investment
carefully calculated to assure returns that promise profits. As Emerson
has said:. “If you invent a mousetrap better than a world has known,
the world will beat a path to your door.”
But far more persons will come to examine and buy your mouse
traps if you will lay out and pave a broad and smooth road to your place
of business; and you can do that by intelligent activities in advertising.
Advertising, right advertising, is a wise and legitimate investment.
When nvestments are made in merchandise, they are expected to,
bring certain returns upon the money invested.
When investments are made in advertising, they should be ex-;
pected to do the same thing.
Big national advertisers have reduced their advertising.to a science.
In planning their big advertising campaigns, these advertisers first
decide what per cent of their gross receipt shall be reinvested in advertis
ing. Of course this per cent.varies with the character of the goods to
be sold, the season, the section of country to be solicited for sales, and
the general conditions of business.
Then these big advertisers carefully select—or should carefully
select—their media of advertising.
There are many means and methods of advertising, of course. A
few of them are worthy and dependable; many of them are not. Much
money is wasted in misdirect advertising. Newspapers and magazines
afford the very best media. But agricultural implements shouldn’t be
advertised in fashion periodicals; and cigarettes shouldn’t be advertised
In religious weeklies.
If you have high class goods to sell—high class clothing, furniture,
furnishings, drugs, groceries, jewelry and other comforts and luxuries—
you should aim to reach the persons who.can and do buy such things.
Ordinarily your home town newspaper is your best medium.
Then, there are advertisements—and advertisements.
The success or failure of an advertisement depends much upon how
it Is written and how it is displayed. ;
The good advertisement must do a number of things:
First—It must attract attention.
Second—it must hold attention.
Third—it mnst convince.
If it fails to attract attention—but few persons will see it;' If it
fails to hold attention—few persons will read It throufch; if it falls to
convince—money and effort have been wasted.
Use sense, as well as CENTS, In advertising.
