HAY FEVER FOR u YEARS.
Well Known New England Woman Cured
of Hay Fever.-.Cure Was Lasting.

The thousands of discouraged people
who dread the approach of summer be-
cause they have hay fever, and cannot
find any relief from it, will read with
interest and gratitude the following
statement from Helen S. Williams of
Mansfield, Mass.
For 81 years, from the month Of
August until heavy frost, l have been
afflicted with hay fever, growing worse
and worse each year, until of late years
| was unable to attend to my work
during that period.
Last summe | fortunately gave
Hyomei a trial, and | am happy to say
that it entirely cured me, and / have
had no occurrence of the disease since"
since"
This letter is only one of many that
have come to the proprietors of Hyo-
mel, and the results following this
treatment have been so remarkable
that it is proposed at the annual con-
vention of hay fever sufferers to re-
commend Hyomei.
BY breathing the germ-killing and
healing balsams of Hyomei, anyone
can have at any moment of the day,
either in their home or office, a climate
like that of the White Mountains.
The complete outfit costs but 81, eX-
ira sbottles, SO cents. The Laurens
Drug Co. agree to refund the money
to any hay fever sufferer who uses
HyOmei without benefit.

A Queer Ratnbow superatition.

The Kurds and Armenions, whose
many folklore stories and tales Of gu
perstitious fancies far exceed those OF
the gypsies, have some rainbow be-
llefs which arc perhaps not duplicated
in the popular notions Of my othors
among the races of mankind. They
boot at he idea of It's being n witness
to Gods covenant with man that the
earth VIII no more undergo the ordeal
OF flood and declare that 1t was made
for the express purpose OF letting the
first man and woman down from
heaven, the man securely fastened to
one end OF the great varicgatcd band,
the woman Mt the other. The end Of
time, according TO the Kurds, Will be
ushered In by the appearance of four
rninbows, which will cross Mt the
zenith, furnishing eight passagcways
for God and his hosts.

LAUGH AND R O FAT.

Isaacson and Moses were rivil cloth
iers, who kept shops situated in the
same street and opposite each other. 1t
was their frequent practice to stand at
their shop doors and solicit the custom
of passers-by and occasionally irritate
each other by personal remarks.
One morning Moses shouted to Isaac
son go in, you great BOBBY, and take
that ugly face wild you. You might as

He Did Not Hold His Job Because.

Il h1SW COO IluCn.
He shirked his work.
He performed the easy tasks first.
He wouldn't be bossed by any man.
He had no thought above getting his
pay.
He thought it smart to deceive his
employer.
He thought himself too good for the
place.
He wouldn't do more than his share
of the work.
He imagined that the world owed him
a living.
He would not do more than he was
paid for doing.
He took no interest in the welfare of
his employer.
He began work by inclination and
quit work by the clock.
He forgot his business too often and
his habits not often enough.
He was more interested in quitting
work than he was in doing it well.
He grumbled if told to do it in some
other way than he wanted to do it.
He paid more attention to the deft
rolling of his cigarette than he did to
keeping stock.
He was such a good fellow after
hours that he did not feel like being a
good fellow during hours.
He thought his working hours were
merely time to be spent going out with
the boys and nursing a headache in the
morning. The Commoner.

On Advertising
How Shall We Know
Good Copy?
Good Copy?

The compilation of this data, cover
ing a period of years, on a large variety
of Mail Order accounts, has given US a
reliable means of knowing just
what kind of copy Sells the most
goods for a given investment in space.
1t also affords us a reliable index to
the relative Earning-Power of different
publications, using the same kind of
Copy, at the same period of the year.
But, Lord & Thomas investigation
through this Record of Results has
gone farther than testing out Mail Or
der Copy.
Because, when the qualities, in Copy,
that produced consistently large Results
in Mail Order Advertising had been
located and isolated, these same quail
ties were then applied to Copy for Cen
eral Advertising of Goods to be odd
through Retailers.
/, Our "Record of Results" thus shows
that the something which made a given
kind of Copy sell goods at lowest cost
by mail also made it sell goods at lowest
cost through Retailers.
These qualities were "Reason-Why
and Conviction" saturated into the
Copy, and presented in certain thought
forms that strike the most responsive
chord with average Readers of Adver-
tisements.
The combination of these qualities,
evolved through our 'Record of Re-
Suits" is a formula as exclusive with
Lord & Thomas as the formula of the
famous Liquor Chartreuse is with the
Monks who control its secret.
This kind of Copy we call Lord ~
Thomas acknowledgements"
The relative Selling-Power of each
piece of this copy we can judge in adj
vance, by comparing it with Results
obtained previously through kindred
kind of Copy, used for equivalent Prop
ositions, as registered and compared in
our "Record of Results
What this Record of Results
means to your Advertising can be only
vaguely suggested in this article. But
the subject is fully and clearly covered
in our "Book of Advertising Tests
which will be published June goth.
Its price is $500 per copy to all but
General Advertisers and Mail Orders
Advertisers.
Any of those two latter classes may
have one copy, free of charge, if a
request for it reaches us promptly be-
fore the limited edition is fully pledged.

MI. Advertiser!
Don't care how Bright" how
Catchy" nor how Attractive" the
copy is, or is not.
What we want to know is how much
Goods will it Sell, per dollar of cost,
through Retailers, or by Mail?
Selling-Power is the only quality we
recognize as Good, in Advertising.
No mere Excepting the Name before
the People" will satisfy our standards.
No mere Grade Stimulus" nor Gen
eral Influence on Sales" will we recog-
nize as real Advertising worth what it
costs.
No evasion of the Grand Issue Sales

to pay for the Space it fills, with a
handsome profit on it to the Man who
pays the Bills, is working for some
other Agency.
But chow can we know copy which
will positively sell goods before it is
published at the Advertisers ex-
pense?"-you ask.
Well, this is how we know it, Mr..
Advertiser!
About one-fourth of the Advertising
we place annually is Mail Order Adver-
Using, for about Sc different clients.
Every single insertion of each Mail
Order Advertisement has been keyed
separately, in each publication. We
thus know precisely how much each In
quiry for goods Costs, from each differ
ent piece of Copy, in each Medium.
This information we record accurately
in our our Record of Results"
Then, we compare the Cost of Selling
each line of Mail Order goods through
the different kinds of copy used, and
we find a wonderful consistency in the
figures.
A kind of Copy which produces In.
quiries at low Cost for one proposition,
we find produces Inquiries for another
entirely different proposition in the
same ratio of low cost.
And the kind of Copy which Costs
three times as much per Inquiry, in the
same publication, for one proposition
will, we find, cost practically in the
same high ratio on all other propositions,

Raise Mules.

MIR. Wess Donnon of Tylersville was
In tho city on Thursday and following
his buggy were three fine mule colts.
the colts were the subject of much
favorable comment and a bystander re-
marked to THE ADVERTISER reporter
that that was an industry that his pa
per should advocate. THE ADVERTISER
has always advocated raising every
thing that is used on the farm and some
thing to sell too where practicable, and
and among the things enumerated are
mule colts.
We advocate raising horse colts like.
wise, but our preference is mule colts;
mules are ready for service a year be-
fore horses are, a large number of
horse colts turnout to be only ordinary
horses, while practically all home raised
mules are good, and where you have
three or four in a bunch it does not
cost much more to raise them than it
costs to raise SO many sheep.

Studying the angels of the old masters,
we find that the prncedoms and powers
wear robes and tiaras and bear orbs of
sovereignty or scepter-like wands. Ordi-

wands musical instruments. The dra-

pieces. and nude angels have never ap-

their angels with a luxury of silks, satins
