A DEVICE FOR DOORS.
Afflicted Summer Boarders and Others
Find 1t Handy In Hot Weather.

Afflicted Summer Boarders and Others
Find 1t Handy In Hot Weather.
Is there q woman that in boarding
house or summer hotel, in tho hottest
Of the "dog days." has not groaned in
secret and openly over the heat of her
room during the long afternoons, when
in negligee she has wanted nap or q
dolce far niente over the latest novel?
To insure privacy the door must be
kept closed, and then ventilation, even
when there happened to be transom,
was very nearly impossible With the
door open curtain blowing to and
fro in the breeze was all but useless.
No remedy for this evil has ever been
suggested. Afflicted summer boarders
have had to endure, and afternoon
lounging en- deshabille on hot afternoons
has been dreaded.
But now. as the New York Herald
tells. there has been planned a simple
device that will make rooms habitable
1t is known as tho "hook and eye" and
in the country houses where it has been
tried works like q charm 1t consists
of thin iron bar. foot to foot and
half in length, with a hook ON one
end This bar Is attached to ring
which in its turn is fastened to screw
plate. On arriving at her hotel OF
boarding house the guest has this screw
plate fastened to the jamb of the door
Of her room.
There is the "hook." The "eye" is
nj, 10 a. - alo an
plate. This latter is screwed on the out
side of the door, ut any point desired,
but at such place that the hook being
slipped into the eye the door will be
held firmly opened for the space of a
foot or so. The bar can be made longer
II wanted, its exact length being quite
immaterial. 1t is essential, however,
that shook" and "eye" be screwed in
place five to six feet from the floor.
From this bar thin curtain is hung,
a filmy, thin curtain, just wide enough
to cover the opening, that passersby
along the halls may not see into the
room. That this curtain may not wave
hither and thithcr with the breeze 1t is
made with hem into which weight
IL poured-sand II the house be at the
seashore. rocks and stones IL 1t DO in the
country,
When the apparatus Is in place and
the curtain gently swings from the bar.
a good breeze Is coming in over the top
that completely ventilates the room and
brings down tho temperature most ef'
rectually. AT tho same time there Is the
most absolute privacy

EVENING PAPER BEST
Largest Advertiser Of New York Gives
His Opinion.
Evening Paper Reaches the People LabOrer,
Mechanic and Clerk Take Evenings
for Reading.

Mr.. Philip A. Come, the adver-
Using manager of the Siegel-
Cooper Company, the great de.
psrtment store of New York, said
in reply to question as to wheth.
er the morning or evening paper
was the better medium:
"You ask me which l consider
the most valuable as an advertis-
ing medium-the evening paper
or the morning newspaper. l
will say hat great deal depends
on whether the advertiser is cater
ing to the popular trade or to what
is generally designated as the
classes If the advertisers trade
is with the wealthier class, then 1
should say that the morning news
paper is quite as good as the even
ing paper. On the other hand,
if the advertiser desires to secure
the trade of the laborer, the me.
chanic, the clerk, etc., who has
hardly time to read even the most
important news on his way to
work in the morning, to
say nothing Of reading advertise
ments, and who seldom finds time
to do any more reading of that
nature until he returns home in
the evening. should most en-
phatically declare the evening pa
per to be the best advertising me
dunn. Iu the evening the me-
chanic or clerk has ample time, as
a rule, to read his evening paper,
and to discuss with his wife any
interesting news, attractive offers
or advertisements he may find in
its columns, and to come to de-
finite conclusion as to Just where
to buy. The experience of great
many years confirms this belief,
and in our business we are now
combining ourselves almost exclu.
sively to the use Of evening pa
pers, with most gratifying results.
l am prepared to make the I'M
qualified statement that any bust
ness house doing business on a
strictly cash basis and catering to
the popular trade, should confine
its advertising to the evening pa
pers, wherever it can do So"

fully justified. Everything of a
sombre nature is strictly taboo'd,

THERE ARE NONE so
BLIND AS THOSE
WHO WILL NOT See"

There are some people who cannot be
convinced that white Is white and black
is black, because they are determined to
have their own way about 1t. Very good.
Such people go through life missing the
great truths and the greatest happiness as
we'll as comfort.
There are others again who are con-
vinceable. II Is to the men of this class
that we like to talk about the merits of
our clothing.
They are better than nine-tenths of the
made-to-measure clothes turned out In this
city and the equal of the other tenth.
Alfred Benjamin & Co.'s clothes cost
about half the price of made.to' order
clothes, and have every desirable attribute
of the very best made-to-measure gar
ments, besides embodylng many unmateh-
able features strictly their own. That is
why we say investigate the merits of the
clothes bearing this label before going to
tailor. You risk nothing and stand to
win lot.
