Successful Advertising.

The successful dry goods business
of Posner Bros, in Baltimore, Nd,
was recently sold, the proprietor retir-
ing to indulge in rest and travel The
part that systematic newspaper adj
vertising played in the growth of the
Posner business was interestingly de-
scribed in a recent issue of a Balti
more paper by w. A. Lewis, advertis-
ing manager of the firm for eleven
years. According to Mr.. Lewis, the
firm spent from 100000 to 100000 a
wear on advertising, almost exclusive
" in the newspapers. No schemes
were used, not even street car cards.
AS Mr.. Lewis in another part of his
interesting review reveals the fact
that the house spent not less than 3
per cent. of its gross receipts IN adj
vertising, it will not need mathema-
teal expert to discover that his fig
ures would place the annual turn
over for eleven years at from 81 ,OO0,-
900 to $1,35O,OO0. Speaking Of the
firms idea of advertising, Mr.. Lewis
said: GA total absence of exaggera-
ton in advertising is necessary for the
best results.'' AS convincing proof
that such a policy begets profitable
confidence on the part of the public,
he said that during sale of severa
weeks $15O,00O worth of goods were
sold without price being mentioned
simply because the Baltimore public
knew that the firm s advertising was
reliable. Further, Mr.. Lewis is quot
ed as saying: "Continuity of adver
Using is, think, one of the stronges
reasons for success. It is the con
slant dropping that wears away the
stone. We never stayed out Of 6

Noticed.

Official notice was served on the
Western connections of the Michigan
Central today at Chicago that they
are at liberty to use a $3.50 rate
from Chicago to Boston and return
as baslng rate from points in the
West. The notice of the Michigan
Central went further and authorized
the Western roads TO use the lowest
rate made by any competition as the
basing rate on its line, but the Chair
man of the Western Passenger Asso-
citation advised the Michigan Central
that it would have to tender speci-
fically every cut. before it could be
made available for basing purposes.
Hereafter the c., C. & /. lines of
the c., II. & d. will run Sunday ev-
cursions from Muncie to Chicago via
the Pere Marquette, through New
Buffalo, instead of via the Erie. Lake
Michigan excursions from points on
c., c. & L. to Benton Harbor, Mich,
will be run in connection with the
Pere Marquette instead of by way of
the Indiana, Illinois & Iowa, as for
merly. These changes illustrate, in a
small way, some Of the advantages
to the c., H. & D. lines of the merger.

FIFTEEN YEARS
Since Mrs. Born and Son Were on the
Street,
Street.

New York, Aug. 12.-Mrs. Theresa
Born, eighty-four years old, and her
son Paul, forty years old, have been
removed to a hospital from a back
room in Bleecker-street house,
where they had existed fifteen years
without having set foot in the streets
The son saw a trolley car for the first
time while on his way to the hospital,
and became greatly excited when he
was carried to a room there in an ele-
vatOr.
Fifteen years ago Paul fell sick.
He was attended by his mother, and
when their means failed they were
sustained by agents of various chart
table organizations and by neighbors.
Recently the mother was stricken
with paralysis, and Paul's condition
rapidly grew worse from lack Of food
and care. Finally neighbors became
alarmed for fear both would starve to
death, and notified the authorities,
who removed the invalids to the hos
pital none too soon.

Value of the c.shew Nut.

Agricultural scientists are unquali-
fedly enthusiastic over the future of
the Cashew nut. which grows in Porto
Rico on tree which attains height
forty feet. Roasted. no other nut can
compare with it In delicious flavor in
the opinion of David G. Fairchild. agri-
cultural explorer for the United States.
Burnt almonds" said Mr.. Fairchild,
are fiat in comparison" The gov rn-
fsent believes that American candy
manufacturers have a good thing in
the Cashew nut, and that a big market
for it could be created. Mr. Fairchilds
recommends that groves be started at
once. and that the sale of the nut be
pushed. TT is bound to gain populari-
r." said he; ''in fact. the prospects for
r the Cashew nut are really wonderful" "

piete.ic Requirements.

1t has been laid down as physio-
logical rule that the requirements of
adult diet depend not on the weight
of the eater. but on the extent of his
bodily surface. An infant may weigh
one-eighteenth as much as grown
man, but its surface is more than
one-seventh as great. AS the first re-
quirement of the infants food is to
replace the heat that is. continually
being lost by radiation from all parts
of the body, the latter friction deter
mines the needed proportion of rour-
ishment rather than the former. But
in the case of u growing child food
is also needed to supply the increase
of the bodily weight. In all an in
rants ration may be five times as
much as would be estimated from its
actual weight alone.

twice as high as the Flatiron building.

Costly Lights in Taking Tickets.
Modern railroading has driven the
passenger conductors lantern almost
out Of use. Two decades ago or less
the pride Of passenger conductor
was his lantern. Then the cars were
not so brilliantly Illuminated as they
are now. and the ticket taker was
Obliged to carry his light on his left
arm in order to see the pasteboards as
he passed through the dimly lighted
car.
Ten or twelve years ago the cen
ductors indulged in considerable ex-
traVsgaIEe in the matter of lanterns.
Some of them were gold and silver
plated. The upper part of the glass
globe was colored blue, and the name
of the owner was cut in old English
letters. At the meetings of the con-
ductors' association manufacturers
would arrange great display of cost
ly lights at one of the hotels in the
city in which the meeting would be
held. Some of the conceits in the
lights were unique and the prices
ranged from $25 to ten times that fig
ure. The glass and the plating were
kept in highly polished state and
none dared to meddle with this part
of the ticket puncher's equipment.
Conductors still carry their own
lanterns-that is they are on the train
ready for use-but there is nowhere
near the need of them that formerly
existed.
