How to Advertise.

The householder in glancing through
his morning paper has his attention
caught by the more attractive adver-
tisements. Advertising is an essential
factor in modern business methods,
and to advertise wisely the business
man must understand the workings Of
the minds Of his customers and must
know how to influence them effective
ly-he must know how to apply
psychology to advertising.-Atantic.

the Vice President.
Theodore Roosevelt 10 not Z prophet,
nor the son Of prophet. but he looks at
things very straight and ssss Into them
pretty clearly.
During the presidential campaign Of
1900 the editor OF the Review Of Reviews
asked Mr.. Roosevelt. who was then Pres
idsnt Of the New York Police Board,
to write M article on the Vice Prssi-
dency. together with comments "a the
three candidates who had been nominat-
Ell respectively by the Republicans, the
Democrats aud the Populists. Following
Il an extract from Mr.. noosevelt's arti-
Gle:
Tho Vice President should. 40 far as
possible. represent the same views and
principles which have secured the nomi-
nation aud election OF the President. and
he should be a man standing well In the
councils Of the party. trusted by his fell
low leaders, and able. in the event Of any
accident to his chief. to take up the work
Of the latter just where 1t was left"
This was written nearly four years
before Mr.. Roosevelt was even mentioned
for Vice President. and before his cleo
ton as Governor OF New York. He was
nominated for Vice President against his
owu wishes because the Republican party
believed that II elected he would be able
In the event Of any accident to Mr.. Nc,
Kinley, to take up and carry on the work
OF the latter. and history has proved the
correctness OF this view.
Mr.. Roosevelt's first public uttersnce
after he succeeded to the ONCE OF Prssi-
dent was q promise to carry on the work
Of his lamented chief to the best Of his
ability and strength How faithfully and
successfully be has done 10 Is shown by

THE PENDING STRIKES.

Ths1 Are ~ No Uss - Dsnssrstis
Campsjg Material
After cropping about bIindly for some
thing to take the place Of the dead 1d
to i free silver issue Of 1896 and 1900,
the Democrats have apparently seized
upon the unrest Of labor as indicated In
numerous strikes In various parts of the
country as condition which can be
charged to the Republican party. This
10 merely another illustration OF the ira
dltional faulty. Of Democratic issue hum
ter, to monkey with q live wire, when
they are looking for something to win
votes.
Strikes, like the poor, we have with
~ always. But unlike the poor they are
not proofs OF hard times and misfortune.
More often strikes are the signs and at
tendants Of prosperous times. In hard
times wage earners have nothing to
strike for, except against sharing in the
losses which wait on unremunerative
industry. In good times. such as we
have been experiencing under Republi-
can rule during the past eight years,
strikes Indicate the natural ambition of
labor to secure an increased share In
tho profits of their remuneratiys indus
try.
Under Cleveland, from 1893 to 1906,
strikes signifed the protest of labor
against declining wages.
Under Mckinley and Roosevelt from
1897 to 1904, strikes have marked the
strides by which labor has raised its
wages to = point never before known 10
the history Of the Industrial world.
No official statistics Of strikes have
been compiled later than for 1900. but
the figures for the sixteen years to and
including that year show the follow
ing loss Of wages to employees during
two Republican and two Democratic
administrations:

Eight Republican yean. bs.s.


The banner year for strikes was 1894,
which involved q loss Of $37, 1853 to
employees In wages.
1t has been estimated that the strikes
OF 1908 lessened the purchasing power
OF the American people by fully $1,000
100000; and yet, 20 universal was the
increase In pay of wage earners that
the savings deposits OF the country were
increased by the enormous sum of $780,
I05, 155 In one year. This affords
striking contrast to the memorable year
Of Democratic adversely. 1894. when
$37, 1857 more savings were with
drawn than were deposited.
There II vast difference between the
significance Of strikes In years OF adver-
sity and years OF prosperity. According
to the annual report of the American
Federation Of Labor the 1904 strikes of
the organizations afiliated with that
body In 1908 resulted In benefits to no
less than 192591. or II per cent Of the
249.S19 members involved. In 1894 the
proportion OF successful strikes was only
37.35.
Clearly the present. prevalence Of spor-
adic strikes will not serve the Demo
crats As . campaign issue. except - .
