SHORT TRLKS ON ADVERTISING.
copyright by Charles Austin Bates.

copyright by Charles Austin Bates.
Don't expect the newspapers to do it
oil. Look out for the show window and
the counters.
When you advertise something of spec
ial interest in the papers, Fill the window
with 1T and have it prominently displayed
in the store Have some neat tickets
painted and hung up above or near the
goods.
Be sure the clerks all know what ia
going on. If were running a store, |
would make it the first rule that every
clerk should read every advertisement
every day. [ would have them under
stand just what l was trying to do with
each advertisemcnt-iust what the goods
we're and where they came from and how
they happened to be SO cheap, or SO good
or both.
The newspaper is sometimes blamed,
for the i'll success OF an advertisement,
when the real fault is right in the store
Don't ever expect spasmodic advertis-
ing to pay. Don't ever let an issue of a
paper you are using appear withoutyour
advertisement
The day you leave the ad. out will
probably be the very day on which some
body will look for it, and, not finding it,
go to competitor. The last ad of
series is the one that sells the goods. A
man may see your ad thirty days in July
and not buy till the thirty first ad. Yields
conviction into his mind.
It's the last stroke that makes a horse
shoe-all the Others were merely prepar-
atory. The shoe was not shoe till the
last blow fell. If that had not been given
it would only be semblance of shoe
merely bent piece OF iron.
A sale is secured by the last word that
is spoken-by the last ad. that is read
If it remained unspoken, or unread, the
sale would often fail entirely.
Advertising is insurance of business,
but you must keep up the premiums or
the policy will lapse.

! Advertise such things as the season
suggests.
Advertising is the champagne sparkle
of business.
At the advertisers store Hard Times
looks in but dares not enter.
II you have a good thing, you owe
it to the public to adver tise it.
The advertisement brings the Gus
toner and the salesman gets the
credit.
| No man can talk about advertising
not paying like the man who has not
tried it.
How are people going to know why
they should trade with you if you don t
tell them?
! If you have an article the public
ought to buy, your advertising is OF
just as much benefit to the public as it
is to yourself.
| People will read the news about
your goods and store just as readily as
the news about anything else, if you
make it fresh, crisp and interesting.
Wise newspaper managers urge their
advertisers to frequent change of copy,
because frequently changed ads pay
best, and thus stimulate advertisers to
more advertising.
The value of continuous advertising
lies in the fact that people get to believe
in the merits of an article whose name
is familiar even if they forget what its
merits really are.
Your trademark with your name
and address and the goods you sell is
not bad advertising. Your trademark
with special argument about your
goods, or some of them, is good adyer-
Using.
Because you have never advertised
your store is a good argument why
you should advertise it now. The
mere fact of your departing from your
usual custom will prove an attractive
| ad of itself.
In local advertising toll where the
| advertised article may be found Oh
sale. In general advertising give no
| place of sale at ali and you will make
| all dealers wish to carry your easy
selling goods.
Too much grotesqueness, "funny
business wit, humor, 'chattiness, ~
Ott-handiness, and other unbusinesslike
things in your advertising means loss
OF dignity, and loss of dignity means
loss of business.
If the advertisements rather than
the subscriptions make the publication
of paper at low price possible, the
chap who borrows a copy practically
pays for it if he reads the ads. IN
fortunately, however, the kind of man
who prefers to borrow rather than pur-
chase copy of paper is scarcely
likely to increase the value of an ad to
any extent, even if he reads it over
forty times.

PARHAM-MlTCHELL.
Pretty and Interesting Marriage II
the Baptist Church Yesterday.

In softest tones to loves young
dreams attuned, merrily pealed the
marriage bells yesterday at high noon.
The Baptist church was the scene Of
pretty marriage yesterday the con-
tracing parties being two we'll known
and highlyiesteemedEoung people, Miss
Harriette Tull Mitchell. Of Henderson,
and Mr.. Samuel Jones Parham, of Lou
lsburg. The ceremony was performed
in the presence of a large number OF
friends and well wishers by the pastor
Rev. Junius w. Willard, assisted by
Rev. Robert VanDeventer, of Bur-
lington. The event was a most inter.
esting one, tho marriage in every way
pleasing and the service beautiful and
impressive.
The attending couples were: Miss
Lucy Taylor and Mr.. Sid Cooper.
Miss Fannie Parker and Mr.. Henry p.
Strause.
Miss Lizzie Cheatham and Mr.. j. K.
Collie, of Louisburg.
Miss Virginia Richards and Mr.. J. Hill
Parham.
Miss Lucinda Cheek and Mr., W. r.
McNair.
Miss Tucker Massenburg aud Mr.. A. j.
Mitchell.
Miss Sadie Walker, of Durham, was
maid of honor, and Mr.. S. S. Parham, OF
Henderson, brother of the groom, was
best man. Little Miss Julia Cooper,
niece of the bride, was flower girl. Csh-
ers, Messrs. A. J. Cheek and J. II. Lassi-
ter Jr.
The bridal party entered the church
in the following ORDER. First tho ush-
ers walked up the central aisle folio we'd
by the bridesmaids. Then came the
groomsmen and behind:them two ladies',
next two gentlemen and SO on until all
had taken their places about the altar.
Then came the maid OF honor followed
by the flower girl, and after them the
bride leaning on the arm of Mr.. J. w.
Walker, Of Durham, her uncle, by
whom she was given away. The groom
and his best man entered from the pas
tors study in the rear of the altar.
Miss Daisy Stephens, one of Hen
derson s most cultivated musicians ..pre-
sided at the organ. She was ably as
sisted by her brother Mr.. Edward Ste
phens, talented young violinist. 1t is
needless to say the music was one of
the features of the occasion.
After the marriage tho bridal party
and number of immediate friends and
relatives of the family repaired to the
residence Of Mr.. G. NJ. Cooper, where
an elegant dinner WAS partakep of.
Seldom has more sumptuous or elab-
crate repast been spread in Henderson.
To say that it was enjoyed by all
whose good fortune it was to be counted
among the guests, is not necessary.
The bride who is sister of Mrs.
Cooper, is young lady of exalted vir-
tues Of mind and heart and is greatly
esteemed and admired by those who
know her. The groom is popular
and estimable young gentleman who
numbers his friends among a wide circle
OF acquaintance. He is a Henderson
boy, but for some time has been living
in Louisburg where he is manager of
the American Tobacco Company's bus
mess on that market.
Mr.. and Mrs. Parham left on the
Southbound train for an extended visit
to points in Alabama, Florida and Lou
isiana.
The bride was the recipient of many
very handsome and costly gifts, embrac-
ing the useful as we'll as ornamental,
from friends at home and from a dis
lance.

no less appreciative and responsive
