ADVERTISING HINTS.
lFrom the AdvertIsing WorId.l

It's never too late to turn over new leaf
 The best returns follow the best advertising.
 Methods, plans, purposes, all need iudieious advertising.
 Look out for the interest of your customers but don't neglect your own.
 Every effort will be crowned with the measure of success it's genuine ness merits
 A merchant gets great deal of legitimate advertising by his meth ods. People like to deal with q busi- ness man.
 If you have failed to start the new year right it's better to start q month late than to walt for eleven months longer:
 Don't let the advertising grow un- interesting through February. Busi- ness is not so brisk, so you'll have to push for it.
 The merchant who gave small per cent. of his sales in q certain line of his business to a well-known char ity, says it was very good invest ment.
 Those who expect to do business likea circus should advertise like a circus. They must also expect to have rainy days when business is not so good.
 In getting business remember it's the best policy to treat the new GUS toners just as well as you do the old, and in holding business it's policy to treat the old customer as well as you do the new.

"side Tracked" is described as pure farce Of the light and airy sort, The preposterous situations are said to be very amusing and clev- erly handled, prefaced and linked to- gether by a.dialogue of most uncom mon brilliancy and fairly sparkling with the rare humor that has been relished so heartily by Mir. Walters followers.

Little Bessie Blurnenthal Showed the Court
 How She Made Paper Lanterns.
 Little Bessie Blumenthal, sittine tailor fashion on the floor of Recorder Goff's courtroom, made paper lantern so deftly that the spectators and the jurors applauded Little Bessie's per. formance kept her father out of jail
 This father, Bernard Blumenthal, has a stationery store at 435 East Eighty third street. There was a fire in the sta tionery store on Sept. 28. When Fire Marshal Mitchell made his inspection to learn the origin of the fire, he found in the store several small boxes, the covers of which had been removed. Over tho boxes were tied pieces of paper and within the boxes were stubs of can dles, barned low. These boxes contain ing candles were evidence of arson, and the fire marshal arrested Blumenthal. The trial began before Recorder Golf and a jury. The marshal told about the ominous boxes that contained the stubs of candles.
 For the defense little Bessie was call ed to the stand Tho child is 10 years old. Tho recorder would not permit her to bo sworn, doubting if she under stands tho nature of an oath, but he permitted her to tell the jury what she knew about the fire.
 "Papa and mamma were at the tenn ple that day. said little Bessie, land we children, Mamie, Louis, Tillie, Ed die and myself, were playing soldier. made the lanterns ,
 "How did you make them?" asked the recorder.
 The child was tangled up in her words. She could not mako the jury understand how she made tho lanterns

BESSIE MAKING LANTERNS IN COUHf. how she made the lanterns. The record CT sent for box that had contained crayon chalk, some paper, a candle and a piece of twine.
 The child took this equipment, and first removed the cover of the box. She lighted the candle and placed it inside the box and then tried to fasten the paper over tho box with the twine. She was awkward and embarrassed. She could not fit the paper around tho box.
 A juror asked her what gave her so much trouble.
 1T can't tic it here," said little Miss Bessie from tho high chair ill which she sat. "I was sitting on tho floor at home :"
 ''Sit on the floor here, then," said the recorder.
 Down she jumped, and, sitting on the floor of the courtroom with her lit tle legs doubled under her, she rapidly folded the paper around tho box and fastened it with tho string. Tho jurors stood up to watch tho little child make the lantern. In moment she held ii up for inspection. The light from the candle shone through the paper, making famous lantern.
 Then the spectators applauded, and some of the jurors shouted, She's done it" Tho lantern was exactly like the boxes the marshal had found in the sta. tioner's store.
 The jury returned a verdict of not guilty, and it is understood that it was the testimony of little Bessie which had most to do with that result. = New York Journal.
