Money spent in Advertising
Egoy7 the Mean York Trjb,lna


In response TO an inquiry as to the amount
of money spent in advertising patent medi-
cines in this country he said IL was impossible
to estimate the sum with any degree OF accu-
racy. 1t was far up IN the millions of course.
"WhY. In pushing one of our own compounds"
he said, 1--WE are frequently $l50,000 behind in
but Of course we always maze it up. In
entering a new territory we do little else than
pay out the first year. but the second year it
begins to come back. Oh. yes. there is money
in the business when it is worked right and
your article happens to catch on with the
public. Let me tell you story to illustrate
this about friend of mine who is well known
to many New York theatrical people. as he is,
or rather was, first-cass light comedian
himself. His name is not MCGep, but we'll
call him that for the present About four
years ago he was travelling through the West
as leading man in a stock company. Business
got bad and the company went to pieces at
Peoria, l.. lie wing MEG e, his wife ami
brother-in-law with only money enough to
pay the fares Of two of them to Chicago. In
stead of going there, however, he went down
to a dry gOods store, bought few yards Of
red flannel and then visited a druggists where
he procured a prescription, the qualities Of
which ne knew from rsonal experience.
That night he appeared on the prin-
cipal street of the place as a ven
der of liver pads. His brother-ln-law was
with him dressed as an end-man and gave
en- ugh funny business TO draw a crowd. Nc
Gee is a lively talRer and his desperate situa-
tiOn spurred him on. The result was that he
20 rid of enough pads at 81 apiece to get the
whole party to the next large town and had
enough besides to buy more stock which he
worked off in the same way. He kept this up
all the way East, and when he reached New
YORK he had over $500 in his pocket. Instead
of hanging around the RialtO with this. how
ever he started out on another tour with his
pads and made still greater success, which so
encouraged him in the business that he new
no urned to the stage. The last time 1 heard
OF him, about two years ago, he had a dozen
agents with minstrel show attachments sell
ing his goods through the country and was
fairly coming money. heard afterward that
he had bought 100000 house in Brooklyn a d
paid spot cash for it. But. of course, he was
one of ten thousand.D

Ofcourse there has been much discussion
among Baltimore ministers as TO whether
the Rev. Sam Jones' style Of preaching
does any good. The Rev. Mr.. Klrkus
said that Jones' preaching was sheer vul-

"Jones' language is refinement itself com.
pared with the yulearity and looseness Of
the people the Rev. Mr.. Kirkus would
shield in their SINS" and thus the discus
sion goes on.

The man most in favor, however, is Secre-

lighted to know that he carries into his high

courteous recognition of men. that character
lied him when he was an oficeholder in the
metropolis.
That Roscoe Conkllng's towering form
should attract attention on Pennsylvania ave-
nue. need not surprise any ore. ''1he Sena-
tor" as everybody here calls him and seems
to understand who is meant by it. 1.-THE Sena-
tor" attended by his wife, came over here the
her day for a weeks rest and recreation,
visiting the capitol for the first time in many
years for that purpose, his other visits having
been In the interest OF the State, If not the
nation. Mr. COnkling looked well His walk
was hesieged with old-time friends glad to
see him, by outstretche hands eager to well
come him. and by smiles ID respectful bows
wherever he went.
sturdy, steady, persistent plodder, he has re-
gained hardness of flesh. GOODNESS of de-
meanor and steadIness OF bearing which it
will be remembered characterized him during
his term in Albany, and which for q while
forsoOk him after his assumption of the new
duties here.
En- 'cott. the Secretary OF War, is the hard

Garland is accessible, so is Bayard. and
villas has enough common sense and contem-

those who can serve or injure him, but to
whitney must he given the palm of easy

he has arranged three enormous easy chairs.
Day after day women enter timidly, peer
around curlously, sit down gradually and
stare persistently until having gratlded their
curiosity they rise and retire. This is about
all the fun Phil. Sheridan has now. The mo-

Osity bent alone, he grasps his pen and begins
to write. This a signal to her for the COM
mencement of observation. She observes,
makes notes and when through goes out.
