A PERFECT HAND. How Its Appearance Became Familiar
 to the PubIics

The story of how probably the most perfect feminine hand in America be- game known to the people is rather in- teresting.
 As the story goes the possessor of the hand was with some friends in a pho tographer's one day and while talking, held up a piece of candy. The pose of the hand with it's perfect contour and faultIess shape attracted the attention of the artist who proposed to photo graph it. The result was the beautiful picture kept in the family until one day after reading letter from someone in- uuiring as to who wrote the Postum and Grape Nuts advertisements, MT. Post said to his wife, We receive so many inquiries of this kind, that it is evident some people are curious to know. suppose we let tne advertising department have that picture of your hand to print and name it "A Helping hand" (Mrs Post has assisted him in preparation of some of the most famous advertisements)
 There was a natural shrinking from the publicity, but with an agreement that no name would accompany the picture its use was granted.
 The case was presented in the light of extending a welcoming hand to the friends of Postum and Grape-Nuts, so the picture appeared on the back covers of many of the January and February magazines and become known to mil- lions of people.
 Many artists have commented upon 1t as probably the most perfect hand in the world
 The advertising dept. of the Postum Go. did not seem able to resist the temptation to enlist the curiosity of the public, by refraining from giving the name of the owner when the pic- ture appeared but stated that the name would be given later in one of the news paper announcements, thus seeking to induce the readers to look for and read the forthcoming advertisements to learn the name of the owner.
 This combination of art and com merce and the multitude of inquiries furnishes an excellent illustration of the interest the public takes in the per- sonal and family life of large manu- facturers whose names become house. hold words through extensive and con- tinuous announcements in newspapers and periodicals.

ECONOMIC CLUB.

Efforts Being Made to Organize One
 in New Haven-The Purposes of the
 Club Are Set Forth as Follows,
 The purposes of this club will be to unite the representative business and professional men of the city in non- partisan organization for the discussion of economic, social and industrial prob lems. Questions of live and practical interest such as municipal ownership, insurance regulation and trade union- ism will be considered. Men of nation al reputation will be invited to attend our meetings and discuss the question for the evening on both sides, These discussions will generally be held in connection with informal 6 o'clock din- ners following the plan which has been successfully employed by the Economic clubs of Boston, Providence Worcester, Portland and Springfield. The dinners of these clubs have proved of great value in arousing interest and develop ing enlightened public opinion on questions of the day, and we believe that a, club conducted on the same lines will prove of equal interest to New Haven.
 Arrangements are being made for the first dinner at which the railroad rate question will be debated. Judge Cross cup and MT. Prouty, of the interstate commerce commission, and other speak, CTS of prominence will be invited to +olya ,oor+ in +bis 771aa+iOp

 In one of the galleries there were tables for bridge whist for those who did not care to dance, while the two smaller galleries were reserved for the guests who cared neither for dancing nor cards.

The streets the railroads seek to have closed lie between eight blocks, the greater part of which are owned by the railroads.
