THE SUCCESS OF ADVERTISING

TFrom the Cleveland Leader.1
Long ago the prediction was often
heard that a reaction. sweeping and
effective, would soon set in against the
bulk of newspapers made huge by ad-
vertising. 1t was asserted that the bus
mess of giving publicity to business af-
fairs was being overdone. Efforts were
made to show how much money mer-
chants might save if they all ceased to
advertise, and when the transforming
craze was at its height one of the ar
guments used by promoters of great
combinations was that they would be
able to do away with most, if not all,
OF the cost of advertising which had
been done by the companies to be uni
ted in greater corporations.
Hardly a glance at the leading papers
and magazines is required to show how
utterly futile attempts to check the
growth of advertising have been. Year
by year, month by month the business
wtdens and strengthens. More money
and ingenuity are lavished upon adver-
Using today than We're ever before de-
voted to that phase of business Even
the great Industrial trusts have not
been able to do without it,
This is simply the recognition of the
general success of the advertising prin-
ciple-- Notwithstanding all the faults
and follies which have been connected
with advertising, in the United States
and in other countries. the net result
has been vast and Unreasonable wild
ening of the wants of civilized man and
an equally enormous addition to the
volume of trade, the employment of la
Dor, and the scope of great industries.
1t has been learned that publicity re-
garding whatever is new, or especially
attractive and useful in the world of
business, actually creates commerce,
and is one of the mainstays of industry
Civilization grows and rises by increas-
ing wants. 1t is largely built up and
supported by desire for better things
for the latest improvements in all the
comforts, conveniences. and appliances
of life. Advertising spreads, multiplies,
and quiekens wants, and hence it is a
very important agency in keeping the
wheels Of progress moving. It is folly

TWO REGIMENTS PICKED.
Eleventh Cavalry and 2Sth Infantry
to Go to Philippines

Washington, Oct. 31-.Gen. Miles has
recommended that the Eleventh cavalry
and the Twenty-eighth infantry be sent
to the Philippines. Two regiments are
all that the secretary desires to order
to the Philippines at present. These reg
iments are to take the place of regi-
ments in the Philippines to be brought
home, which have been serving there
three years or more and the terms of
enlistment of the men about to expire.
The order will not interfere with the
departments plan for reducing the
army in the Philippines. The regiments
which are to be returned soon as the
troops are ready, are the Fourth, Sew
enteenth Twentieth and Twenty second
infantry, the regiments which have been
longest in the islands.

CLAY STREET PAVING.
Unexp ected Opposition to That Along
Central Park.

Some opposition is said to be develop
ing to the proposed Clay street pave
ment petition, which will be introduced
at the council meeting next Monday ev-
ening. The petition, which is signed by
all the resident property owners on the
two blocks affected, calls for the pave
ment of Clay between Thirteenth and
Fifteenth to form the connection be-
tween the new pavement on Buchanan,
Fifteenth and Twentieth and the pave
ment to Washburn college.
The opposition in the council is based
on the fact that the pavement extends
the full length of Central park, and the
city will be obliged to stand half of the
expense which will be about $4,000
There is a sentiment in the council that
Topeka should go slower in the pave
ment business, over 80 per cent of the
cost of all pavement has to be borne by
the city at large.
A petition is being prepared asking
the council to authorize the mayor to
sign the pavement petition on behalf of
the city, which is considered as one of
the resident property owners.

to think that such a force will ever
cease to operate, while society is or
ganized in its present form.
Moreover, in the long run and in the
broad sense, advertising furthers the
success of merit 1t tends to the sur
vivaI of the fittest 1t is the work
fellow of enterprise, and enterprise goes
hand in hand with Improvement The
ablest producers, the most efficient DIS
tributers, are the natural advertising
leaders. They have most reason to push
their business and most ability to see
the best and most effective ways of do
ing so. The exceptions are hardly num-
erous enough to be considered serious
~.
The discreditab1e and stupid methods
of the knaves and fools who have be-
smirched advertising, just as they med
die with every other great human in
.terest, have not stopped its growing
success. 1t has been confirmed in its
position as one of the most important
and significant phases of modern bust
ness, by the widest possible tests of
time and place.
The wise and practical man of affairs
does not try to oppose or stand aloof
from such a mighty force. He devotes
himself to the problem of getting the
best results from advertising and MAX
ing it most attractive. lucid, and con-
vincing. The general judgment of the
age is that nothing else equals the per-
sistent, intelligent, and careful use of
newspapers of the right sort The proof
is found in every city and thriving
town of civilized lands.
