ADVERTISING STORIETTE

1t is estimated that the amount
spent in advertising in the United
States alone during 1908 exceeded
$1,0OO,000,O00. Insurance came to
less than this; corn figures were $685.
600, 900; wheat $443,000,000; cotton
$500, 900, 900; coal $210,000,000; hay
1855, 100000, and pig iron $9l,OOO,OOO.
The expenditure of so vast an amount
makes advertising unquestionably the
greatest factor and force IN the OuS1-
ness world.
I have always maintained that the
local advertiser, being on the ground,
knows best the value Of the news
papers in his CITY, He has to know.
He cannot afford to experiment;
his advertising must be an In
vestment. Sometimes, 1t is true,
the local merchants may make
a big contract with a weak paper be-
cause of tempting inducements In the
way of cut rates, free space, ETC., but
the paper they use year in and year
out Is the one the general advertiser
should select every time. A close
scrutiny of the existing conditions IN
metropolitan centers reveals the fact
that the local merchants invariably
give the bulk of their advertising to
newspapers that go home. Take
Minneapolis, st. Paul, Kansas
City, Chicago, Buffalo, Baltimore
Washington, Indianapolis, Cleve'
land, Cincinnati, Detroit, Pitts
burg, Columbus, Louisville, Atlanta
Nashville, and so on. In these cities
the local advertiser practically con-
grade, afternoon papers, his expert.
| ence having taught him that they are
the best by any test. In M1nneapon'
| If is The Journal.

New Art Galleries.

The problem of good light for an
art gallery is a difficult one for an
art house in a, large city. For many
years Harrington Beard, the art man,
has desired to have art rooms cen
trally located, where exhibitions might
be held from time to time. The solu-
ton comes in an arrangement just
consummated between Mr.. Geo. D.
Dayton Of the Dayton building and
the Dayton Dry Goods Co., and Mr..
Beard for the Beard Art and Station
cry Co., where art galleries are be-
ing installed on the fourth floor of
the Dayton Dry Goods Co. These,
with a beautiful suite Of tearooms,
will occupy the whole Of the fourth
floor, and the plan is to make this
floor, accessible by four elevators, one
Of the most attractive places in the
city. The Dayton Co.'s constantly in
creasing business and beautifully
lighted building offer to Mr.. Beard the
opportunity he has long sought, and
the Daytons are to be congratulated
on making an arrangement with Har-
rington Beard, who is so we'll known
here as the leading man in his line
of business.

A mistake in locks was responsible for
a prisoners escape from the South Side
police station yesterday morning. The
prisoner was s. D. O'Connell, much
wanted forger, and altho a general alarm
has been sounded and the st. Paul police
notified, he Is still at large.
O'Connell was confined in a cell at the
South station and in the adjoining cell was
another prisoner, charged with a minor
offense. Yesterday morning the other
prisoner secured bail and Tailor Kellogg
went to the cell-room for him. The doors
of the two cells open in opposite directions
and the locks are together. It Is sup
posed that Kellogg unlocked the wrong
door and that when he discovered his mis-
take closed the door without locking it..
At any rate when he returned to the CELL

He Says Speculation In Wheat in

Some of his views are interesting in
their bearing on the flour trade at

Unless something is done by con-
