we'll The amount of space is prop
er1y proportional to the business to
be advertised, the mediums in which
it is placed and properly selected and
the advertisements are intelhgently
prepared.
There are many avenues of ad-
vertising open to the retail merchants
brit Of Them all the newspaper should
receive first attention. When the
merchant has covered the newspa
per field thoroughly aud IS using III
all the Terious various newspapers of
his locality the maximum amount Of
space on which he can make profit,
then he may think of taking up other
mediums, but not until then.
"The newspaper holds first place
among local retail merchants, because
the newspaper is the daily, we may
say almost hourly, companion of the
people.
"The bread winner ofthe family,
whether he be capitalist or day la
borer, is engaged durm~ the day with
his business. He knows little or
nothing of the great world around
him or even in his own locality The
housewife or leader of fashion each
| has her own circle of daily occupa-
| ton. her own limited horizon of OBJ
servation, and like the head of the
| family, must depend on the newspa-
per for the necessary information to
keep in touch with he>doings of the
| day at home and abroad.
| Gas to what may be called the
| technique of newspaper advertising
| for retail merchants, the first ques-
| ton that usually arises is that of the
use of comparatively large advertise
ments at infrequent intervals, or the
| use of the same amount of space in
| small advertisements at more fire.
quent intervals. Which of these
methods to pursue depends altogeth-
er on the nature of the business.
"The merchant who wishes to ad-
| vertise a speciality or a special line
| of business, as for example, a merch-
ant tailor, high-class jeweler, fine
| haberdashery store, ladies' barber
an insurance office, or similar lines
of business, could proftably use COM

| '.The tendency of theadvertiser as
rule is to use too small space
! There is such a thing as saving
money by spending it, and the adver-
| tiser who has a story TO tell can well
! afford to use sufficient space to tell
/ the thing.
"Theitem of regularity of adver-
Using IS far more important than the
relative size of space. The advertis-
/ er who advertises spasmodically is
on the road to lose his money. while
the man who keeps regularly at it

Freak of a Tornado.
White City (Kan.) Register.

Attending the story of every
cyclone there is something of the
nature OF freak TO be related
During the small twister in the
Highland district recently the
almost incredible happened. =
But we must believe the story
for it was told by truthful men.
Between two corner stones of a
barn Mr.. Ruthruff's barn, we
beIieve) the feathers and per-
haps the foot of a chicken pro-
trnded. The stones were intact
and showed no signs of ever hav-
ing been disturbed by man or
the power of the elements. But
the chicken was blown in be
tween those large stones by the
Jury OF the storm in some man
ner. 1t was a chicken without
a doubt, though pressed as thin
as an onion peel. How did it
get there? The theory shared
by nearly all who witnessed the
phenomenon is that during the
storm and a sudden gust of wind
the barn and the top stone were
lifted sufficiently high to allow
the chicken to be blown into the
crevice and before the fowl
could get out the barn settled
down.
