Elevator Etiquette.
Memphls Appeal.Avalanche.

An amusing scene. illustrative of the
difference in views in regard to elevator
etiquette, was enacted In the elevator
of one of the principal Office buildings Of
the city yesterday.
Five gentlemen were in the elevator.
which was about to descend. when q
prominent society lady entered. Four
hats were off in q twinkling, but the fifth
remained firmly on the head of q
dark-haired young man, standing directly
in front of the only lady occupant OF the
lift"
The lady looked at the gentleman. then
at his hat. and then slowly surveyed the
four other occupants. Having satisfied
herself that their hats were off. che again
rested her gaze on the young man. Begin
ming at his feet, she slowly surveyed him
until her eyes met his. and here they rested.
There was &c mistaking that look. No
microscope was necessary to discern the
look of whitening scorn she was bestowing
on him. The young man saw IT., as did
the Others, but never fiinched. A smile
was lurking around the corners of his
mouth, and, seeing that this did not cause
her TO remove her piercing eyes, he
said slowly and calmly: You do not like
this; you forget where you are. This ele-
vator is, to a certain extent. a public con-
veyaBce, n carries people to and from
certain places. What more does a street.
carss You expect too much"
There was a chorus of chuckles, four hats
were on. and the gentlemen had a view of
a lady's back before the elevator reached
the ground floor. The young man who had
asserted himself was the recipient of as
many invitations to drink as the controller
of the ward before election.

The Art of Writing "Ads."
Weekly Journalist.

Many q man who could write a column
of sensational storytelling would lind it
impossible to put truth into q terse and ten
of truth IN this. for the reason that writing
an advertisement is an art that will not
bear the trimming of verbosity. The best
advertisement Is not the one containing the
most words. A well-written advertise
ment should be simple in language and
pointedly put. The writer should say ex-
actly what he wants to say, and stop right
there. Anything more does not d to the
attracuveness of his statement. but on the
contrary rather detracts, as it appears
forced. The man who writes ar advertise
ment should take the reading public into
his confdence-just as he would if be were
to take each reader of into o corner and
whisper in his OF her ear-and make q plain,
straightforward statement, and that is
what always wins.
