the first she has ever filled in city, and
many things are new and strange to her.
The home at which she IS employed stands
in the middle of block of fine residences,
between which are no dividing fences or
marks TO indicate separate ownerships.
One morning just after she had come to
the place she is now filling the lady of the
house made her understand that she wished
the snow swept from the walks about and
in front of the house. The girl went at
the task, and nothing more was thought OF
It until her prolonged absence caused

The above is pretty good circular matter,
and would make fairly good advertise
ment in newspaper. l would criticise
the printing of the word ''notice" it
means absolutely nothing, and the printing
of it is simply waste of space It has the
effect of detracting from the body of the
advertisement which contains its meat and
life. Another criticism; the matter is too
general: it does not strike direct blow at
the reader; there is nothing in it to suggest
that the readers house out to be papered !;
it does not stir him up. l rewrite the cir
cular for q newspaper advertisement,
attempting to make it breezy TO correspond
with the general feeling at this season of
