Advertising That Paws.

Pro. MY no town or city of any size
ant .nportance escapes the frequent
visits of the glib, tonged schemer who
has an advertising dodge to work. Some
of his schemes are new. but most Of them
are old. made more cutely and seductive
perhaps by new setting. But whether it
is the rotating cylinder to place beneath
the postoilice clock, "A hotel register, or
a choice space in a show case, he has
something new to say, and says it elo-
Quently. He has a hang on that is as
tenacious as the pIoverbial dog and the
root, and always succeeds in swindling
at least portion of the business com
munity. But the careful advertiser the
man who economies, who wishes to
spend his money to the best advantage
is rarely caught. He has learned by
dear experience that "scheme" adver-
Using does not pay. The old standing
card IN whatever form does not appeal
with much effect to the live, up-to date
merchant. He has found that the adj
vertisement that brings returns is the
one that goes into the homes of the peo-
pie. and can be changed often.
This Ort of advertising can be done
only in newspapers. People get as tired
of seeing the same advertisement for
three months as they would of seeing a
standing editorial. The aggressive, alert
business man has something new and
cheaper than ever before to offer his
customers or aC least he makes them be-
ieye so, and he is the man who adver-
tiscs the heaviest and gets the trade. 1t
is anus ne 10 see occasionally mer-
chant who will pay S25 to n ''schemer"
for standing cIrd of son sort, com.
plain of high advertising rates of news
papers. He probably never got % cents
for his investment in the card yet com
plains if a respectable amount of space
in circulating me dium like the news
paper is not almost given to him. When
advel tisers have learned to steer clear of
scheme" advertising and put their
money and energy into the only kind of
advertisieg that brings returns, it will
be better day both for them and for
the newspapers.-Belows Falls Times.

mixer. Barrel after barrel follows IN quick
succession until nearly !, 200 pounds have
been thus distributed. The machine is
started, and thus begins the first step in
the kneading process. AS the cylinder
slowly revolves the kneading being assist
ed by iron arms which revolve inside the
chamber in opposite direction so that
the mixing may be more thoroughly and
quickly done, the head baker stands by to
stop the machine. AS soon as the dough
has reached consistency in which it can
be taken out in great masses of from so to
100 pounds it is again loaded into the cart
and taken back to the troughs to raise.
A very interesting feature is the actual
kncading of the various shaped loaves,
their transfer to tho ovens in a raw state
And their exit therefrom, brown, plump
and giving out u pungont and pleasant
aroma.
When the dough has "rMsed" sufficient
ly, the busy time in bread making is at
hand. AT each work bench is stationed a
man who weighs the dough which makes
up each loaf. The scales are unerring, and
the loaves consequently never vary in size.
Each kind of bread has q separate scale
and n separate crowd of bakers, who have
become so proficient that where eight or
ten are working at one bench it is impOs-
sibe to distinguish one loaf from another,
either before or after leaving the oven.
The dough having reached oven proof, the
hand kncading and rolling process begins.
Practiccd hands beat it and roll it, play
ing what may be likcnGd unto u drum
chorus as they rapidly prepare it for the
oven. Every lover Of Mother Goose will
recall her admonition to the baker. "Patty
cakcl Patty cake! Bakers man. Roll it
and bake it us fast as you can" Surely
this old woman of blessed memory must
have mastered the secret Of brcadmaking.
Much of the bread is baked in pans yet
there are several of Unpopular shaped and
higher priced varieties which are baked on
the oven bottom. The work progresses
from hour to hour and the same routine is
repeated with never failing precision until
the towering piles of bread admonish the
foreman that enough has been baked to
fill the orders in sight.-Brooklyn Eagle.
