WHEN TO ADVERTISE" "

Under the head, when to Ad-
vertise." the Novelty News pre-
sents this advice:
If your have stock purchased
at high cost and wish to realize on
advertise.
If you purchases were made ad-
vantageously and you wish to de-
velop new inquiries advertise.
If you do not wish some one
else to profit at your expense in
your own field advertise.
If you wish so profit where the
other man leaves your special
field-advertise.
All this is excellent council, but
somewhat wordy. An essay on
When to Advertise" may be put
into five syllables when you
want buyers Special conditions
need special exploitation, but most
merchants want steady flow of
patronage all the year round. The
newspapers make possible the
qualification of their desire.

Several young men of San
ford became involved in rough
and tumble fight, Sunday evening,
in which each participant did his
level best to whip the other fellow.
When time was called it was found
that the boys are all pretty good
scrappers if appearances count for
anything, as each individual pos
sessed about as many bruises as
his opponent, and, punching
them all together, they were a
sight to behold. The row started
from friendly wrestling match
and for some reason became in
earnest. The boys were obliged
to receive the attention of a ply
sician who dressed their wounds
which are not in any way serious.
Latter in the week they were all
arraigned before the bar of justice
at Sanford, the result OF which
lightened their purses So per.
Rather expensive luxury, this
fighting business and in the face
of financial depression, too.

FAMOUS PIANIST
COMES This WEEK
Harold Bauer to Appear at The
Jefferson Auditorium on
Tuesday Evening.

The coming of Harold Bauer, pianist.
Is awaited with much interest by local
patrons OF music. OF the few planists
10 whom the term great" might he
applied, none more fully deserves the
title than Bauer. A pupil Of Padercw-
ski. he owes TO that great master, Il
debt of gratitude for bringing to it's
highest development the musical genius
which he early displayed at the same
time. 1t may Justly be said that Bauer
lis in large measure self-taught. Even
as a boy he showed rare musical In
stirct. and his rapid advance under
distinguished European masters show
ed thatshe was OF no mediocre calibre.
-Four times previous to this present
tour, which is under the direction Of
Loudon Charlton Bauer has visited the
United States. and each appearance has
strengthened his hold on American
favor. Iii Europe his reputation was
made before he attempted to win
recognition In this country. He has
given concerts during the past few
years In so many continental cities.
that an adrnirer has laughfngly sug-
gested that Bauer's fame rests quite as
much upon his record as a traveller,
as upon his skillas musician. From

the chances are it doesn't, for Mr..
Olcott makes many a remark on the
stage that doesn't carry to the other
side OF the footlishts.
Chauncey Olcott's stage career has
been an interesting one. Like many
a good actor, he commenced his pro-
fessional work as minstrel. He was
q tenor solost with Imerson's and
Horley,s Mlnstrels, and next became
member of Haverley's Minstre,s.
His last appearance in this line OF
work was with the Carncross Min
strels, in Philadelphia It was during
this engagement that Denman Thomp-
son heard Of him and engaged him for
"Tl,e Old Homestead"
From the drama he went to opera
and became the tenor Of the Duff Opera

McCaull forces as leading tenor. His
