ADVERTISING WOMEN

There is nothing like advertising. A
short time ago Boston paper hunted up
one of the pretty girls of "The Hub and
printed her picture, declaring that she
was the most beautiful girl in Massachu.
sets. Within the next thirty days she
had 800 offers Of marriage. A paper in
Virginia taking the hint from this,
printed the photos Of two famous beauties
and offered prize to the one having the
greatest number of offers OF marriage
within "a hours after the portraits were
published. The offers poureaSin by the
dozens, and one beat the other by three,
and the prize was duly awarded. All of
which shows that the ordinary mortal
doesn't recognize good thing until. its
merits have been exploited in the daily
press. This holds good in everything.
1t has long been shown to be true in the
dry goods market, in the clothing trade,
with boots and shoes, real estate, grocer
les and it is equally true of humanity it.
self. See how men run after chorus
girls. They could find just as charming
beauties in their own kitchens, but the
chorus girls are advertised and the kit
chen girls are not, therefore, the first are
feted and toasted and treated to birds and
cold bottles, while the poor kitchen girls
are snubbed and neglected It is all a
matter of advertising. That which is ad-
vertised sells, that which is not advertised
is neglected and the problem is as plain as
the nose ongone,s face.
Should war break out within the next
few years the condition of the navy will
be such as to lead to Disaster Such is

TIE NATIONS DRINK BILL.


One Eighth of Our Total Expenditure for

Americas total drink bill-tor all

The Traffic in Old Horses.

A stringent law for the protection Of
horses has lust been passed by the Mas
sachusetts legislature. This law makes
it crime to sell at public auction, or
even to lead, ride or drive on public
way, any horse which, on account of
lameness or other cause, could not be
worked without violating the law
against cruelty to animals. An excep-
ton is made in the case of horses that
are being taken to a hospital or other
place for their humane keeping or xii
ling" One purpose of this law, which
it is said the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals intends to en-
force very strictly, is to prevent GER
tain class of New England dealers from
buying lame horses in Boston and other
cities and shipping them to interior
places in Maine, New Hampshire and
Vermont.
