DeImas Scores Cravath

In the eleventh Cravath came up amid
a storm of cheers and cries for one Of his
homers, while the bleachers and stand
threw coin at his feet, making perfect
rain of money. The jingle of the guinea
helped some, Cravath slamming peachy
double to left. Brashear bounced to Hen
ley, who threw to third, Cravath landing
safe by great slide, while Brashear
gained first before Irwin could throw the
leather over
Rube walked, and Cravath scored on
Delmas hit to left. The fans went wild,
and with good cause, as the winning run
in the eleventh was made with none out.
The Second Game
The second contest of the double-header,
which was also the last game of the sea-
son between the Angels and the Boodlers,
went seven innings by agreement, be-
cause OF, the time consumed by the pre-
ceding game.
Williams went to first base for Frisco,
and Esola took the formers place behind
the bat.
Bernard led off in the first for the To-
Gals, hitting safely infield. Carlisle sin
gled infield trying to sacrifice. and Ber-
nard took second.

Brashear flew to Piper, and Dillon

stole third, Irwin dropping the ball. Ellis

Toman Umpires Well

Jimmie Toman surpassed himself in the
role of indicator handler and made but
two raw decisions on strikes and balls,
both against Los Angeles batters.
In the first game Dolly Gray pitched,
and Nagle twirled in the second, with
Easterly wearing the mask both trips for
the pennant winners.
Henley covered the rubber for Frisco
in the first eleven acts, with Williams be-
hind the bat; willis sparkled those shin
ing orbs in the pitchers box In the second
game, and Esola tried to hold him.
Cravath made two double-baggers and
Melchoir and Gray got one apiece.

There are tWenty-four pairs of shoes to

By the way, another excellent rea-

over magazine advertising rests in the
fact that in those same local papers
the reader sees the 'ad' every day of

words, he sees it thirty times as often

advertisement. My principle is: Keep
pounding away at the reader all the
time. Formerly it used to be a custom
to advertise shoes at only certain sea
sons of the year. 1 never adhered 10
that idea. I advertise-and l keep on
advertising.
when a season is dull increase my
advertisements. That may seem odd.
Many don't do it. But do
THAT is one of the secrets, I think,
of success. Instead of hanging back,
waiting for 4 slack season to pass.
believe in advertising al the more.
This past spring, for example. was
backward and cold. 1t was bad for
trade. l Gid extra advertising.
'..(eS, 1t such times. do l raise the
price of shoes. 1t would not be fair to
make. the public pay for the slowness

that event. either. as the 1906 scale VIII
provo. The scale Tor that year shows
the average Shocmakcr's pay in the
| United States was $i5l. In Massachu-
sets it was $3.50. In Brockton, 500;
| while at my Montello factory it was
$500 That does not include superinten-
dents and high saSried men. Just the
| workers on the union scale.
Another advertising theory of mine
is that a good 'ad.' should be changed
very seldom. OF course in the case Of
dry goods stores or other places where
| special sales are held and new attrac-
tons offered from time to time it is
necessary to change the form and in
! ducements of an advertisement. But
where man deals in a single staple
article. l think he should write one
strong. convincing advertisement and
let that stand for a long time.
| Let him make sure first that 1t is
/ the strongest, best-worded advertise
ment he can concoct. Then let it stand.
| There are good reasons for this. Sup
pose a man has glanced at my adver-
tisement for several days in succession
| without reading it. Then one morning
he does read it. That may be the day
when Qf I constantly change my ads
1 might have a weaker. less attractive,
less convincing one than usual. Per-
haps I lose his possible custom.
"A good advertisement is an argu-
ment. Remember that. An argument.
Not boast. 1t does not shout an I'M
reasonable command to buy something.
1t explains to you WHY you should

Students shoulders and drove lin back

No longer content to work aim,cssly
at one job and another, Douglas now
set about learning the boot and shoe
business from bottom to top, in all its
branches. From town to town he
worked his way. studying the mctnouS
of each shop until he had mastered

Not exactly a brilliant fulfilment of

the shoe trade But Douglas went on
the principle that success consists less
in holding a good hand than in playing
| a poor hand well.
| Working hard and spending little, he
at last saved enough to travel to the
town Of Black Hawk, where. he had

He has found time. too, as all New
England knows, to make a decided i'm
preston in the field OF politics. A
stanch Democrat, he has served In
both houses of the State Legislature,
framed the arbitration and weekly pay
ment laws, was Mayor of Brockton In
1890. and has four times been chosen
as delegate to the national conventions.
His victorious campaign for the Gov
ernorship of Massachusetts was such as
to awaken national interest. Through
out his term Of Governor he conducted
his great personal business interests as
well as those of the State in such
way that neither suffered from inatten-
ton. His wide use of newspaper ad'
vertising during the Gubernatorial con-
test was one of the most striking feat-
ures Of the campaign and contributed 10
no light measure to his triumph.
Why a man like Douglas, haVihs
made such giant strides in the world OIL

not a few wondered that he was not

more needful for me 10 study out care

consent be submitted TO the State Board

In this way strikes and lockouts are
unknown among the Douglas workmen,
and the rleasantest feeling has always
existed between employer and en-
ployed.
Since the beginning OF his first CAM

Mr.. Douglas has gradually but steadily
become known 10 nearly every one in
America. Tho face that looks out from

could not accommodate them, the
official board at business meeting
decided to build a new church. On
the Sth day of last July at the morn
ing service there was raised 6,4O0
and the evening service sf00 more
and since that time it has been push
ed to $500. The new building
when completed will cost $4,000

gressive spirit of Methodism and a
credit to the town Of Palisade and
adjacent neighborhood.
The membership of the church to-
day is 40. The present pastor J..

bers in the last year. The pastor
knows and appreciates the fact that
he has a good, loyal. appreciative and
optimistic people to labor with both
in and out of the church.
The building will be completed by
the first of June 1907. within eleven
months after it was decided upon TO
build.
