PRACTICAL LESSONS.
Merchants Of This City Directly In
terested and Profited.

One Of the most practical lessons
taught by the great Adam Fore
paugh and Sells Brothers great con
solidauon OF shows to every com
munity visited by them Suppose
they we're to come into this city and
attempt to do business without ad-
vertising. How much business would
the do as compared with what they
will do when they come after their
heavy advertising? That is conun-
drum that may be answered as well
by the ignorant in ordinary things as
well as the wise in All things
Now the principle Of advertising is
always the same The circus people
have their exhibition to sell. They
tell what it is in the most attractive
manner possible. They do not stint
themselves in the manner of adver-
tising. The result is known to all.
The same proportionate measure Of
success would attend the sane kind
of advertising OF any kind of business.
II has been long since it was neces-
sary to use any argument with any
sort OF a successful merchant to in
duce him to advertise. The only ques-
tion now is how to advertise the best.
How can II be done? Let this be the
answer Go into any city or town
and look up the biggest business
building and the busiest merchants
It is not necessary for the merchant
to have his name on the door for you
to know even If you are a stranger
in the city Turn to the local news
papers and see who occupies the
most advertising space IN them Then
go back to the biggest business build
ing and read the sign and you viii
see the same firm name. There are
scarcely any exceptions to prove this
rule. It is so general throughout the
country. VIII be here May Q.

NoRru HAVEN GRANGE.

The topic of the evening of March 24 was in charge of Worthy Lecturer Mrs. Ezra c. Munson. Dr. A. L. Winton of the New Haven Experiment station was present, and in very delightful man. her told of his trip across the blue wa aters of the Mediterranean, the ascent up Vesuvius, the visit to Pompeii, where are the pavements. the bake ovens and ruins of buildings that ex- isted 2,0O0 years ago. Dr. Winton had several views with him which finely il- lustrated his subject. Other members of the grange have taken another direc- tion going to one of the many islands lying to the south of us surrounded by the blue waters of the ocean, and that is Porto Rico H. P. Smith in a pleasing manner spoke on the agricultural con- ditions of the'island illustrating his talk by means of a map. Among other facts he spoke of the turning out of thirty tons of sugar day, using the new pro- cess, how tobacco and coffee are grown in the interior; everybody burning their own coffee; the delightful climate and the great acquisition to the United States in the way of accumulated terri tory. W. P. Leete in a highly credit able manner recited "Childs Harold' from Byron. He was followed by Mrs H. P. Smith on the climate, the people, the manner O. living and other items relating to the Porto Ricans. Mrs Smith said the first view of San Juan was beautiful with it's mountains loom ing up in their bumperty, bumperty ap- pearance, being very irregular; the buildings are of many colory, lavender, pink, blue, the soft tints prevailing. Saturday being "Beggars' day. all the halt, maimed and blind are out on ex- hibition. The women all look alike. Cotton and linen goods are imported from France and Spain. Mrs. Smith closed her interesting talk by giving selection on the piano accompanied by her daughter Grace on musical instru- ment bought from Porto Rico. Many interesting curios were displayed show ing the handiwork of the people. The lecturer, Mrs. Ezra G. Munson, read a letter from Mrs. F. c. Bradley, written from California. Lunch in baskets were then served, and the fifty members present enjoyed pleasant and profit able evening.

 Waterbury, March 26.-Dr. A. A. Crane had 8 narrow escape from death this morning. While going up the hill to the hospital in his automobile the steam gave out. He stopped the ma- chine to wait for the pressure to rise, and there was not enough steam in the boiler to hold the machine, which imme- diately began to run backwards down the steep decline. Dr. Crane attempted to put on the brakes, but they refused to operate. The machine in the mean time was charging down the hill at the rate of a mile a. minute. About 200 yards from the starting point of the ride was large. tree, and into this the machine charged. If the machine had not hit this tree it would have crushed over the embankment into Riv- erside street, and the occupants of the machine would have been mangled to death. Dr. Crane has ordered R. N. Blakeslee to remove the machine from it's present place and ship it to Bridge port. The machine is worthless.
