HE BET ON LESTER.
And the Innocent Looking Stranger Landed
with Both Feet,


A man of unsophisticated appearance,
who seemed to be stranger in q strange
land, sauntered into down town pool
room and stared at the blackboard in
open mouthed wonder. One of the smart
young men who hang about the place
began to guy" the stranger and lad,
as he thought, a great deal Of fun. Some
OF the attaches were also greatly amused,
and when the innocent looking visitor
asked for an explanation Of the letter
ing of the board it was given with a great
deal of gusto.
what does that mean?" he asked,
poiHting not overly clean finger.
"That's the name of the horse that's
in the race. It's Lester"
"That horse is running on the track
somewhere, is hep

man, "and lie is dead sure winner too"

race lose my dollar:"

II guess could get it. Who takes the
money heret"
He was directed to the cashier and re-
marked:
81 want to bet that Lester wins that
race"
"All right-9 to l."
81 guess I'll take about 5000 worth"
The cashier looked surprised, but said
nothing. He was too old in the business
to say anything of a startling nature.
The innocent looking stranger went
back and looked at the board for few
minutes.
"Well, if can win 5000 1 might as
well double it," and he planled down
$500 more.
BY this time the sports present began
to open their eyes, and the house grew
suspicious. The odds We're reduced to
to 8, and $100 more was all the stranger
could place. The race was run, and
Lester was the winner. The innocent
appearing stranger handed up his tick
cts and demanded $1,2lO. There was
not that much money in the box, and
the proprietor dashed through a back
alley to bank and got it: The stranger
wadded it up, carelessly showed it into
his pocket and walked ut.-Indianapolis

SSzS
The business man who says that ad'
vertising does not pay does not adver-
tise. He is the one that always doubts
the prosperous trade reports he hears OF
his competitor, who does advertise. He
sits in the back of his store, smokes his
pipe and wonders why he isn't making
any money. He has the blues when he
should have trade. He not only let's his
neighbor get that neighbor's share of
the business, but good part Of his also.
He sees people whom he thought old
friends of his go into his competitors s
store and come out with bundles of
goods, when he has the same articles on
his shelves, and perhaps at lower prices
than they paid his competitor for them.
Why is this so? 1t is because his COM
petitor lets the public know in an in
telligent way through the local papers
what he has to sell and when he has it.
The successful advertiser looks after
his advertising space as he does his
clerks. He changes his ads. in such a
way the people are attracted by them.
He feels that to make money he must
be willing to spend some; that there is
strong competition in all lines of busi-
ness, and to get his share of the trade
he must advertise, and to do 1t in the
most skillful and intelligent way. If he
write advertising matter himself,
he seeks the aid of some one who has
made the writing of advertisements
study-some specialist, who will see that
it is properly written in a catchy and
displayed way-some one whose duty 1t
is to take off the shoulders Of busy
man all the worry of making up an ad.
No business man attempts to cure his
own sickness, pull his own teeth, make
his own clothes or attend to his own
law cases. He employs specialists for
each Of these various services, and
saves money by doing it. 1t is through
it's language and arrangement that an

qualities There must be something to

of interest, something out of

A
Revolution
I'm Eating

has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery of this product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
Indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food; ;
while is we'll known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstain entire
ly from everything of that kind.
To such people, CoTToLENE is of
peculiar yalue, widening as it
does, the ange of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE
is a cooking marvel. 1t confines
with the food-imparts to it a
tempting color, a delicate flavor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
CoTroLENE is worthy Of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, Of itself or for
its hygienic properties.

4 Good Advertisement.

"What constitutes n good advertise.
ment?" I asked this question tho
other day of man who has national
reputation as writer of bright, .effec.
tive and trade e-creating advertisement nts.
He replied: "There is wide diver.
gence of opinion among advertisers as
to what the ingredients of good al.
consist of and each is entitled to some
consideration, for among the most
successful advertisers are men whose
methods are widely at variance. In
my opinion it is of prime Importance
that an advertisement contain nothing
but the plain, unvarnished truth. No
deviation from this principle is per-
missible, for fictitious offers are apt
TO be taken seriously, and when buy.
ers cannot find the articles in the store
mt the prices quoted in the advertise
ment they soon become distrustful of
the merchant who seeks thus to entrap
them. Brevity is also an important
factor. Then again an advertisem ent
should have a bright, catchy introduce
ton that will arrest the readers atten.
tion until his mind has absorbed the
substance of the al. also believe in
a liberal use of price-fgures and in
frequent offerings of genuine bargains.
1t must also be remembered that an
advertisement, like dozen of eggs,
may be spoiled in setting. Typography
will make an advertisement, no mat
ter how small, stand out prominently
is what is needed. Buffalo News.

A RHAPSODY IN MrLLrSrny.

Picture monster disc, straight and
fiat as the ogre's plate in the fairy
tale, of deep, gold colored felt.
Put in front on this vast, un-
trimmed expanse single bow of black
velvet, whose wide, stiff ends touch
the edge of the brim at each side.
Under this brim, as II growing out of
the temples, fasten two largo balls of
silver and rhinestones next, from the
two crown sides underneath, hang two
black ostrich feathers that curl around
the couture and drop to the shoulders,
and 10, the latest French freak that
ofiends the American palate
In this large hat the temple orna-
ments were distinctly out Of place, but
for small hats and bonnets they form
and effective and becoming garniture.
Indeed, the very latest fad in millin-
cry is broadening effect at the sides,
and to emphasize this not only balls
and jeweled horns Of every description
are used, but also velvet choux and
seal and sable heads.
