The hremen Of Salt Lake are bent

responsible for the corps of well

busy woman. her large mail making
heavy demands on her time, aside
from multitudinous social duties.
The question of dress cannot be said
to be an all absorbing one for Mrs.
Fairbanks. Always dressed In excel
lent taste, Mrs Fairbanks renders her
gowns In keeping with her position
rather than as matter of superlative
Importance. New modes and the lat
est wrinkles of fashion trouble her not
at ALL nor will she consent to being
made uncomfortable. Certain limita-
tons she sets for her dressmakers;
otherwise they are at full liberty to
make her gowns as handsome and be-
coming as their ability permits. White
is her favorite color.
Mrs. Fairbanks is the mother of five
children, Mrs, John w. Timmens.
Warren c., Frederick c., Richard M.
and Robert. No society demand upon
her was ever sufficient to cause her to
take one moment from her children
when they needed her attention, and
they have grown up remarkably like
the mother, kind, affable and popular.
One of the striking characteristics of
the family circle is the respect for one
another that is manifested In a thou

appearance from a distance of a thick

indianapolis, Ind.-The election OF

part in influencing the senator to ac-

power She is fond OF society. and
she recognized the fact that 1t would
be distinct social gain to her to re-
turn TO Washington as the wife of the
vice president. A close friend of the
family said some time ago that she
was very anxious for the senator to
accept the party nomination, and that
he was governed largely by her wishes
when, though not seeking the nominal
ton, he gave his friends to UNDER
stand that he would not refuse it.

American had tried many times to per-
suade some japanese artist in ivory

Washington to New York, and when
1t had been learned, beyond question,
that Mogi's welfare was assured, per-

A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK.

PRICE is the keynote to good
advertising. Especially is this
true of retail advertising. The
old phrase that "PRICEs TALK" is
the very essence of truth. A
cold, naked price stands alone in
its eloquence as sort OF type
demonstration that no amount of
argument cam get around. That
which touches the purse strings,
touches the most sensitive nerve
in the human makeup. The idea
is this. Interest your readers by
the brightness and common sense
of your Introductory talk, and
when you think you have their
interest aroused, give them the
price. AND MARK YOU, MAKE THE
PRICE RIGHT. A few cents cut
may add several hundred dollars
in sales.
To be "a good advertiser, you
must be acquainted with the cost
of every article you advertise.
There are three essentials-cost,
popularity of the article and
quantity on hand. Be governed
accordingly.
The ad that merely says,
"Smith & Browns hat stock is
the largest in town and their
prices are lowest" says nothing.
1t is meaningless. How much
more convincing is this: "NEw
STRAW HATS, SO CENTS. BROWN
& Brown"
The woman of the family, and
she does most of the shopping, is
always trying to make the funds
in the family jackpot go the
farthest, and as she reads the
paper, she makes mental memo
randum of how far her dollars
will 90. Thus, the advertised
prices help her. So it is with
the mistress who sends her maid.
She can say, Bridget, here is 40
cents. Go to Blanks and get
two pounds of their best Double
X coffee. 1t is advertised this
morning at only 20 cents per
pound"
There is a mistake often made,
of running in too many prices in
an ad. One or two good items,
correctly priced, will bring far
better results than twenty indif-
ferently given.

SMALL cOurtesies and kind at
tentions are all very well in their
place. But it is very easy to
overdo this kind of thing. There
are some people who are eter.
nally solicitous about the COM
fort of others, or at least they
make it appear SO. Jumping up
to give one a seat, climbing over
the backs of chairs to avoid
walking in front of someone, and
absolutely refusing to go through
a door ahead of anyone is ridicu-
lous and foolish. Often we meet
(peopie who are afflicted with the
malady of over politeness and it
is always distressing to meet with
such people. They are a perfect
nuisance. They interrupt con-
versation with slight silly cere-
monies which mean nothing
whatever to the average men
tally well balanced man. They
make themselves haggard and
all other people nervous with
their incessant solicitude over
small, insignificant details that
do not amount to a baubee. OF
course, there is such a thing as
being rough, blunt and discour-
teous, but a man should be at
neither one extreme nor the 9TH
'er. A man may at once be frank
and courteous, business like and
thoughtful of the comfort of 9TH
ers. But do not try to be over
polite. Let everyone attend to
his own personal affairs. Nine
times out of ten he had much
rather do so. AS for walking in
front of someone it depends alto
gether on the situation. If you
have to crowd between a chair
and the wall and inconvenience
a person so as to cause him to
move it would be much better to
walk in front of him. The very
essence of politeness and seine
ment is to make people comfort
able and happy, whether it be
by rendering them service or
letting them alone. To disturb
people or make them uncomfort-
able to cover some point of ETH
quet is silly and is neither sensi-
BILE nor courteous.
