CATCH PHRASES.

is terests of Business Men. 3

y =
i's terests of Business Men.
There are many instances of where a
suitable catch line well drilled into
people has been of great value in build
Ing business. The best catch line is
one that fits your business best, and
the discoverer of such line is apt to
be due more to inspiration than to eff
fort. Pick the distinctive feature Of
your stock or business methods and en-
deavor to express it in a breath.
If you can coin phrase that ex-
presses your central business idea or
emphasizes some feature that marks
your store alone, you can make good
use Of it. 1t puts into condensed form
an idea that will get hold Of people
and influence them if persistently pre-
sented to them. One fact about your
business well lodged in the heads Of
people is as good as score that do not
penetrate
You can make people believe about
what you like if yon go about it prop
erly. If q man comes to you today and
tells you there will be q panic inside
Of six montha, YOU will pay no atten-
ton to him. If another comes tomor-
row with the same story, he will get
no attention, but you will idly wonder
what is getting into folks. The third
man you will argue the matter with.
The fourth will get more Of hearing,
and you will begin to see signs Of dis
aster yourself. By The time the tenth
man has made the statement you will
be ready to tell folks the same story
yourself III @5s,
Probably you yourself could not be
Influenced in such a manner, but the
common run Of people are built that
way and will believe what they are
told often enough. That is why an
expressive catch phrase does good. 1t
comes to stand for you and your meth
DDS and Of necessity is remembered
when goods In your line are wanted.
AS ordinarily used such a phrase is
of little value, because it is not proper
" hammered into people. Such line
should go on letter heads, billheads,
stat Honery, envelopes, should go into
every ad. or circular, should be seen
about the store and should appear on
labels. Put it on a sticker to attach to
goods and packages. Let people see
. it everywhere. II Il means what 1t
says, people are going to respond to it.

TO HAUL THE CROP.

Chicago, Aug. 4.-Accepting the esti-
mate of a corn crop of 2.50O,OOO, 600
bushels, which is very nearly double
the corn crop of last year. as correct,
the Railway Age does some interesting
figuring upon the amount of freight
which it will create. Two and half
billion bushels of corn means 100000
0O0,O0O pounds OF 70.00O,O00 tons. At
the liberal average of 10000 pounds to
the car this means 2,333,33333 carloads,
which at fifty cars for train means
4G,G6G trains. The Railway Age felici-
tates itself that this will mean de-
mand for cars and engines, long hours
and increased pay for train crews and
large earnings for the railways.

SURVEY BEGUN.
ELECTRIC RAILWAY ENGINEERs

HAVE REACHED UNION RIVER
WILL PROCEED TO
CAsTINE.

Whatever doubt may have existed in
the minds OF people 10 this vicinity as to
the serious intentions of the electric rail-
way people has been set at rest by the
actual beginning OF the work OF survey ing
the route.
Last Thursday o. Willis Rugg OF the
Stanley Electric Manufa curing Co., OF
Pittsdeid, Mass, and wo representatives
OF q. ii. Cutting q Co. OF Worcester,
Mess, arrived In town, and Immediately
began work.
A start was made at Washington
Junction, and the survey had last night
reached the Union river. The most diff
cult problem thus far encountered is how
best to get In and out OF the town. This
appears to be the most difficult engineer
ing feat. After getting into the city and
out again, the problem presents compare
tive little diff culty.
Already the crew of three, headed by o.
W. Rugg. OF New York, has been in
creased to seven, and this number will be
Increased ma occasion requires.
Mr.. Rugg's assistants from away are p.
X. Powers and IL. A. Johnson, and the
local assistants are Charles Grows, s e.
Chapman and e. A. Mcdonald. OF Els
worth, and A. Q. Hayward, OF Bucksport.
Until this survey is completed, and
specific statement as to location, distance,
time OF construction and so on can be
made.
1t Is enough for the present to be able
to state that the work has actually begun
and is now In progress.

Screen to Protect the Face,

The discomfort occasioned by the
hair falling on the face as it is being
cut from the head by the barber is an
unpleasant experience, which the ma
jority of men are called upon to pass
through at frequent intervals, and it
has occurred to a German inventor
that the annoyance could easily be
done away with by providing some
sort of a face screen to catch the cut
tings as they are clipped from the
head. How the idea has been carried
out is shown in the accompanying
drawing, the device consisting of a
screen to protect the face, together
with trough to prevent the hair from
falling on the clothing. The device is
preferably transparent. in order that
the customers view may not be OBJ
structed, and it may be made out of
celluloid, gelatin paper, waXed linen
or glass. The upper edge of the screen
is adapted to fit snugly around the
forehead, for the purpose of prevent
ing anything from passing under
meath, and this enables ii to be used
in shampooing the hair. to catch the
water and lather which might other
wise run aown the face The prin-
cipal advantage of this arrangement in
practical use is the greater freedom it
gives the barber in his work, thus
