The Power That Moves.

Self-moving business and the perpetual
motion machine have not been invented,
and never will be. Some extraneous
power must be constantly applied to
make both move. and in business that
power is the advertisement. Business
men who endeavor to reach the goal of
their ambition without the use of the
advertisement will, like the experimental
in perpetual motion machines, expend
their substance fruitlessly.

presented at a popular-price matinee at
the Metropolitan opera house this after
noon, and the engagement will close with
the performance tonight. The show has

Howard Gould, whom Mr. Daniel Froh-
man has chosen for the leading role in
his company which is to play the new

won wide reputation as one of the best
of romantic actors by means of his fine
