THE RISE OF TIE ADVERTISEMENT.

|
paper presented a monotonous
appearance from day to day.
They were written in a formal
style and condensed to few
outlines. A look now through
the advertising matter of live
newspaper is interesting, and to
many even fascinating. But an
examination of it is far more
than a pastime. 1t is full of val
liable business points and OPP
portunities, and brings clearly to
mind Cowper's thought of a
"map of busy life, its fluctua-
tons and its vast concerns. :"
With an increase of vitality in
advertising has come the writing
of advertisements as a profess
sion. The aim is not to be lit
erary, though good adver-
tisement has claims in that d.
rection. Flashing an idea clear
ly into the mind is the purpose.
In the most lucid words and the
most taking form the expert
writer of advertisements seeks
to impress the reader with what
is offered and the best reasons
why it should be purchased.
First catch the eye, then the at
tention, then the judgment, and
the object is attained.
In this way a glance over the
advertising pages has come to
be like a walk through street
of great bazars, with show win
dows full of goods ticketed on
every hand; or like great
clearing house on the intelli-
gence office plan, where the
reader at his ease may select
what he wants or offer what
somebody else will want, says
the Globe Democrat. There is
no noise, no crowding, no waste
of time, no opportunity that can
not be dismissed without a word.
Another feature of live adver-
tisement is its veracity. 1t costs
and means business. It
is not printed for the fun of the
thing. Then it is presented in
honest rivalry and must stand
the test in columns that are open
to all the respectable elements OF
trade on equal terms. In the
course of time the public be-
comes acquainted with the
methods of each advertiser and
quickly acquires an aptness in
selection. The name of the
steady advertiser at length be-
comes a household word.
Sometimes it is said that a
arge part of the feminine world
IN opening a newspaper read the
marriages and deaths and then
urn to the fresh advertisements. |
t would be nearer the fact to
'ay that the woman who is the |
head of a family reads the i'm
oortant news and then settles |
Town to study the advertise |
nents that touch her round of
luties. Such course is per-
ectly natural and business like.
1en look over advertisements
or the same reason, though in
ne line OF their own daily
transactions. The law of choice
) at work in both cases. All
mankind love a bargain and all
esire to keep up with the times.
10 the utilities and attractive
ess OF advertising grow from
ear to year. The specially
rained writer and the artist
ombine to render it more pleas
lg and effective and all possible
ingenuities are
to the same end. Ad-
ertisements are frightened also

animal reared and fell on Pete. The
planters wife, seeing the apparently
Hfeless body of the slave, exclaimed:
''Oh, goodnessl There's an $500 mig
ger killed. Now, if it had only been
Shanghai, it wouldn't have been SO
badP'
''That was enough for me-" says
Pierce, who tells the story occasionally.
''I didn't want to stay where a slave
was worth more than a white man, so

This was in 1854, and, as there was
nothing else to do, he became a cowboy.
1t was a wild and dangerous business in
those days, but he kept at it for several
years Finally the cattlemen found out
that the lanky fellow who rode SO well
was remarkably good judge of cattle,
and as a result he was employed to
travel through the state and buy beeves.
When the war came, Shanghai secured
a contract to supply a Texas command
with beef. They used to say that his
herd always brought up the rear in ad-
vances and led the vanguard in retreats.
Anyway when the war closed he had
capital enough to purchase an interest
in the business of the big firm of Allen
& Poole, and for three years he travelled
as their purchasing agent In 1869,
when this firm went out of business,
Pierce drew out $1,000 as his share
of the profits.
Two years later he concluded to try
his luck in Kansas, but after three
years experience in the Sunhower State
be returned to Texas He established
ranch in Wharton county and began
raising beeves on his own account. Year
by year his ranch has grown larger and
mis- herds more extensive.
As his interests brOadened out and he
began to buy ranches in different parts
Of the state he was kept continually on
the go. He supervised every detail of
his scattered interests with never weary
ing watchfulness. Perhaps this is why
be always secured the best grazing land,
always bought when the market was
lowest, always sold when beef was high
est and always had the best cattle to be
found in the market.
just what Shanghai is worth today
probably no man knows exactly, but it
is somewhere in the neighborhOod of
s4, 900, 900. In 1894 he owned 1872, 900
acres of land, 43, 900 head of cattle and
nad 5000, 900 out at interest, but since
hat time he has experienced three of
he most prosperous years in his whole
career. He is SO years old now, but he
S still the American cattle king, and
t Will probably be many years before

THAT'S WHAT MADE SHANGHAI" "
PIERCE A MILLIONAIRE.

Was Once Cowboy and Is Now Known
as the Cattle King of America The
Story of His start In Life and His
Rapid Rise.
When Shanghai" Pierce got back to
Texas, after several months of travel in
Europe, a friend asked him what cities
he visited.
"Oh, London, Paris, Berlin, Rome
and lot more, - he replied.
"Well, what did you think of Rome?''
''I saw some mighty fine cattle just
outside that town?'' was "Shanghai's"
only comment on the once imperial cap
ital.
This shows that whatever Mr.. Pierce's
object was in going abroad he took his
business along with him, and no won
der. For half a century he has thought
cattle seven days in the week and q
months in the year. He is the cattle
king of America and, just as other men
have made millions by thinking of moth
ing but railroads or stocks or gold min
ing, he has made millions by keeping
his mental vision fixed on cattle, cattle
lands and cattle markets.
In about every city from Chicago to
Denver the name of a. H Pierce is al
most as well known as if he had been a
prominent resident of each for years,
and thousands of bank cashiers are IA
miliar with the scrawling signature.
But the initials are only for state occa-
sions. Those who know him by sight
and many who know him only by repu-
tation always speak of him as ''Shang-

1t was long before the war that tall,
rawboned youth arrived in Texas fresh
from Rhode Island. He had no capital,
but a common school education, health,
strength and an unsuspected amount of
energy and pluck. Some wag saw in
this big, awkward youth a resemblance
to a Shanghai rooster, and he applied
the nickname. AS nicknames always do
in stories and sometimes in real life,
this one stuck.
He first found work on a big planta-
tion where a number of slaves were
owned On the farm was a horse which
only young negro named Pete and
young Pierce could ride. One day the
