WHY ADVERTISING PAYS.
What 1t Has Accomplished for Shoe
Trade Alone.

There's a charge for store rent and a
charge for advertising in the price you pay
for every pair OF shoes" said E. j. Bliss.
managing director Of the Regal Shoe Com
pany who Is probably one Of the best-in-
formed shoe manufacturers In the United
States, 70 reporter who called to make
some inquiries about Regal advertising
The charge FOR rent is a necessity Does
the advertising add 10 the cost Of selling
per pair. or reduce It? Let's see
A store paying so day for rent and
selling twenty pairs OF shoes, without ad-
vertising, would have to charge you 81 per
pair for rent alone.
II by spending $50 per day additional for
tuVtrtislus the same store can sell 200 pairs
OF SHOES instead OF twenty pairs, then the
rent and advertising combined would cost
only - cents per pair instead of 81. 90
II Is a favorite argument with unadver-
used shoe stores that they can give better
value tnan the Royals for instance, because
they do not advertise 1t would be Just as
sensible to say that they can give better
value because they have not trade enough
10 employ more than one salesman
II Is the volume Of sales that reduces the
cost or selling each pair. And the quickest
and best way to get volume, when the shoes
are OF the right kind. is by advertising

One Banker Accused by Another OF
Alternating Wife's Affections-Love
Messages Over Wire
Special to Tne Herald.

Special to Tne Herald.
LINCOLN, Neb, July 1S.-A damage
suit for $25, 900 for alleged alienation
of a wife's affections has set tongues
to wagging at Nebraska City, where
the proceedings have been filed. The
action involves Charles Butterheld, Il
wealthy banker of Hamburg, Ia, as
plaintiff, and Minatree f. Catron, also
a banker. of Nebraska city as defen'
dant. Butterfield charges in his petl-
tlon that Catron corresponded with
Mrs. Butterfield. talked to her frequent
ly over the long distance telephone and
finally induced her to meet him clan
destinely i'm Omaha and other adjacent
cities in this way winning her affec-
tiOns.
Subsequently Mrs. Buttertield secured
a divorce and was given $4,000 by her
husband in settlement of alimony
claims. Catron has also figured in a
divorce case. Last year he filed petit
ton at Nebraska City. alleging INF
deity on the part of his wife, who is
the daughter of prominent merchant.
Later he withdrew his charges, but
secured a decree on grounds of ineom-
patibility. The divorced Mrs. Catron
recently moved to Kansas City and Is
now another mans wife. Bu;terield' 5
suit is the elimination of preparations,
as he charges, on the part of Catron
and Mrs. Butterfield to wed.

The annual grand Elks' parade will

sides many handsome floats.
A feature of the celebration today
was a massed band parade. There were

struments. Mania ttan Beach, with its
numerous attractions, was thrown open
free today to registered Elks and their
ia miles, and the Wild West show and
Indian exhibitions continued to be a
source of wonder and delight to visitors
from the east.
Selection of the next place of meeting

tween Philadelphia and Baltimore, and

HENS LEGS UNUSUALLY LONG
Freaks That Can't Scratch in Garden
Devised by a New Jer-
sey Farmer
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, July 1S.-Charles
Spencer of Newton. Sussex county,
N j., had been troubled greatly by
his neighbors' chickens scratching in
his garden, so he set to work some
time ago to devise a hen that couldn't t
scratch or wander away from its own
yard. After many discouragements he
claims to have produced a number of
hens with one leg shorter than the
other by the crossing of Plymouth
Rocks and bantams
These hens, he asserts, have a right
leg six inches long and a left leg but
four inches. They are unable to wan
der any distance from the coop owing
TO their inability to take steps of the
same length with both legs. Instead
they walk around in a circle.
Another Sussex county man says a
Plymouth Rock hen has just hatched
out a brood of eleven chickens which.
instead of walking like ordinary chick
ems, hop like sparrows. He explains
this peculiarly by the fact that during
the period of incubation the mother
hen was Viciously attacked by a flock
of sparrows.
Aside from furnishing a remarkable
example of parental influence the case
of the hopping chickens is calculated
to furnish strong argument for those
who contend that the hen that hatches
the egg, and not the one that lays it,
is the real mother OF the chicken.

PHILADELPHIA'S BABY CAMEL
Tiny Hump Back Is Born Just Before
the Earthquake and Named
"Frisco"
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PHILADELPHIA, July 1S.-Sunning
herself in her spacious yard the livelone
day, Frisco, the baby camel at the zoo,
is enjoying this spring weather. She
was born April 16, two days before the
earthquake, and from that she gets
her name. Under the watchful eye of
her mother she has become an orderly
and well behaved child, and bids fair
to be one of the zoos most respected
citizens.
Already she has acquired that gravity
of expression and dignity of manner
that shows the good breeding and lin
cage of all aristocratic baby camels.
She is the pet of the keepers and they
take great delight in watching her
gravely follow her mother around the
yard. She is of the bactrian double
hump family, the child of the finest
camels at the zoo.
The rapidity of Friscos growth is re-
markable. Already the ungainly spin
die legs and the long neck are beginning
to adapt themselves to the size of the
body, and the double hump is taking
shape. She has made friends with the
small deer in the next yard, but they
are not allowed to grow chummy be-
cause of watchful Mrs. Camel who
seldom allows her offspring far from
her side.
On his last trip to New York Super
intendent Carson secured a panda, one
of the rarest branches of the raccoon
family. 1t comes from the Himalayas in
India. For long time scientists were
unable to properly class the panda. 1t
bore resemblance to the raccoon, but,
as this animal was supposed to in
habitthis country alone they could not
account for any branch in India. A
fossil of an animal similar to the panda,
found in England, gave rise to the
theory that the raccoon had at one time
been general over the world. But the
species had become extinct except in
North America The panda has long
brown hair and long brown tail with
black rings. Its face is white and its
legs are covered with black hair. 1t is
about the size of large Angora cat. 1t
lives pretty much on milk and will not
touch bread or rice.
