THE TALK OF THE DAY.

Speed mania is getting to have scientific recognition. The medical superintendent of the MontrOse asylum mentions motoring as the latest addi- tiOn to the predisposing causes tend ing toward insanity. He reports two victime of the new motor mania" at his institution. He gives no details to enable us, says The Hospital, to deter mine what form the craze assumed, or whether the tendency was homi- cidaI, suicidal or of a less personal character. But in any case, the new menace to mental stability is dis quieting.
 A deputation of Australian unem- plOyed called recently on MT. Caruth- ers the premier, at Sydney. Two of the leaders wanted to speak first. Said one:
 T claim the right to speak before you on the grounds of seniority"
 'On grounds of what?"
 Seniority. Why, I have been con- nected with the unemployed for b years"
 Very New-I thought you told me that Miss Pastelle was old?
 She is-oId as the hills.
 Don't believe it. I kissed her few minutes ago, and found that the paint was still fresh.-Cleveland Leader.
 The wife of a welI-known naval offi- cer i'll Washington recently advertised for cook. Though the establishment presided over by the officers wife is in accord with their undisputed social po- sition, yet it is by no means preten- tious, for the naval man has no means aside from his salary. Consequently, when one applicant for the position of cook announced to the wife that her price would be $50 a month she was told that such wages were out of the question. The cook, not deigning to notice the remark, went on at length to give her superior qualifications, touching especially her ability to get up smart luncheons and dinners. Again the lady of the house said she would not pay $50 for cook. Seeing

On this subject we shall, perhaps, discourse again. We are advising men to build up their business through ad- vertising, and if they take the advice we want to see them make a success of it.
 The big merchant knows the differ ence in the value of salesmen.
 One man that you send out on the road may be worth $2O,OO0 a year and another may be worth $500.
 Yet you tell them both to say just the same thing: Buy Smiths goods"
 The difference in their value con- sists in the different manner they have of saying Buy Smiths goods"
 Don't get it into your head that the writing of advertisements is an infer ior or easy kind of writing. To write a really good advertisement is a fine art There are few men who know how to do it.

Arizona republican., 1905-09-03

There are a great many business men that would, without hesitation, spend thousands for lawyers, architects, en- gineers and other experts, but would resent a suggestion that they should spend money on an expert in advertis- ing.
 Scientific, intelligent advertising is absolutely essential to business in these days.
 Within the business mans reach there are SO,OOO,0OO of people. His fortune is made if he can do two things.
 First-Have the goods wanted.
 Second-Get that fact into peoples heads through advertising.

For the people-Santa Fe.
 Read McKee's "ad' today, sure.
Arizona republican., 1905-09-03

Many a man has tried to make mon ey through advertising and failed, simply because he forgot in one thing to use his common sense.
 A man that wouldn't dream of try ing to preach a sermon to catch sin ners, thinks that, of course, he can write an advertisement to catch GUS toners.
 He can't.
 A man is naturally interested in his own sins. It isn't so very hard to get him excited about his future.
 It is simpler to make a man repent than to make him become a steady purchaser for a new brand of soup.
 Of course, the business of the preacher is higher than that of any other mortal, but it is no more of a technical trade than that of an adver- tisement writer.

SHOULD OPEN STREET THERE
Would Prove of Great Convenience
to Public.

The city authorities have been re
quested to open street, or rather
driveway, from the site of the Cd
Mitchell mill to Plum street, following
the course of Town creek Tue idea is
to make accessible the fine artesian
we'll owned by the Central Railway,
and which can now be reached by pc
destrians only with difficulty and dan
ger. Many citizens prefer thIs water
to any other and there seems to be no
objection upon the part of the railroad
company to their using the surplus wa,
ter, which otherwise goes TO waste. If
a driveway Is laid out over the course
suggested, which can be done by the
street force at nominal cost. it will
prove very great convenience to peo-
pie who now wsdc across railroad tracks
and dodge undtr cars to get to the
we'll.
