Practical Talks on Advertising
From the VIEWPOINT of Profit.
Study the Headlines Good Models for
Advertising says G. F. Lord Charge
Programs to Charity.

G. F. Lord. of the Lord Adver.
Using Agency, Scranton, Pa, adj
dressed recent meeting of the
Advertising Association, Of Bing-
hampton, N. Y. In the course of
his remarks he said:"The day is
past when the merchant may
ask: Does advertising pay?"
The fact that advertising does
is demonstrated so thoroughly in
every line of business that it is
generally accepted. The ques-
ton today Isl, How can | get the
best results from my advertls-
ing? How can I make it most
proftable?' J"
Taking up the methods of con-
Quoting an advertising cam
paign the speaker urged the ne
cessity of a well-defned plan and
known appropriation. Know
just what you have to sell. =" he
said, and how much you can af-
ford to sell it," Forget how anx-
ious you are to make sale, aud
look at the goods from the pur-
chaser's point of view. See why
the goods are desirable, and
bring the reasons forcibly to the
attention of every possible Gus
toner through your advertising.
Take some specific article. Ill
ustrate it if possible, Tell in
plain language why it is desirable
and what it costs. Make the
headlines as effective as possible.
Study the headlines OF the papers
in which the editor in a few
words gives the gist of a half-col-
umu article. In the smaller type
talk to the customer as you
would talk to him face 10 face in
the store"
Mr.. Lord, in speaking of the
choice of mediums, cautioned the
business man against charging
to bis advertising appropriations
purchases of space 10 programs,
etc. These, he said, should be
charged as charity, fpr there is
no possibility Of their having adj
vertising value.

TRANsALAsKAN RAILWAY.
Syndicate Proposes to Build One From
Cadova to Eagle City.

Tacoma, Wash. Sept s0.-A New York
syndicate proposes to build a trans-Alas-
kan railroad from Cadova to Eagle City,
distance of 400 miles.
ENGINEERS John P. Jameson and d. A.
Mckenzie have returned here from south
ern Alaska. where they went to investi.
gate the feasibility of the proposed line at
the request of the syndicate. They have
drafted a report and 1t is expected that
ARRANGEMENTS for this purpose will be
made without delay. Engineers, reached
the conclusion that the route which fol-
lows the Cooper river to its mouth and
thence proceeds to Cadova bay, is most
feasible 1t gives a water grade route
while Cadova bay has a landlocked harbor
with Is to 20 fathoms Of water. The line
traverses Il country filled with copper and
coal. 1t is believed these resources along
will will furnish a daily tonnage of 1000
tons A charter for the road was applied
for during the last session of congress. The
head of the syndicate is William L. Bull.
senior member of the banking house of
Edward Sweet & CO.. New York Other
Capitalists interested are Grant B. Schley
of Moore & Schley, William NJ Barnum
of Harvey Fish & Sons. and Winthrop
Smith, a Philadelphia banker.
