Of her husband to the Legislature.

ADVERTISING AS A BUSINESS


Nathaniel c. Fowler, Jr.., delivered
the last in his series of ten lectures
before the High School of Commerce
His subject was advertising as a
Business. He described at length
the three branches of the advertising
business; the solicitor, the agent and
the advertisement writer or manager
of the advertising department.
"A knowledge of advertising, and
the ability to write an advertisement
or circular, and to perform other
advertising duties, may be of extreme
, value to everyone entering business
even though he may not become an
advertiser" he said. "As advertising
and personal solicitation are closely
allied, familiarity with advertising
I will help in selling, as will knowl.
edge of selling aid in advertising
/ Any young man is better off knowing
! something about advertising and
! printing, no matter what business he
/ may enter. This knowledge is sure
to come into play. If he has it, he
/ possesses an advantage which should
and probably will, materially aid his
advancement.
Il would advise any young man
about to enter business, or even a
profession, to know something of ad.
vertising and printing, and to under.
stand. at least in general way, the
theory and practice of publicity.
Sooner or later he will have occasion
to use it. Nearly all firms advertise
to some extent, and the man who
knows something of advertising is
likely to be placed in charge Of the
advertising, not to give his whole
time to it. but to take it up as part
of his duties. This will bring him
into close relations with the inside OF
the business and with the officers and
partners. He is, to an extent, a
marked or picked man; opportunities
| are before him. He is giving special
service, which is likely to be appre.
ciated.
Then, too. a knowledge of adver.
Using is broadening, and it may en-.
able him to handle to better advan.
tage the regular affairs Of business,
Therefore. I would advise every
young man to know something of ad.
vertising. not as livelihood profes.
sion, but as part of that general
knowledge without which more than
ordinary success is impossible. Dos.

And then she tripped away,
going into the kitchen and closing
the door behind her, leaving Frank
looking after her in amazement.
"Whew! If she's cook! Well, I'll
eat my hat. She's as pretty as a
blossom-and such manners and lam
guage and voicel Why, I'd swear
she was born LADY,

Estelle's hands in greeting. well,

No. Just a good joke" laughed
Estelle. And then as they all en-
joyed the delightful dinner Mrs.
Brown explained their dilemma re-
garding their cook, saying: "And it
is Estelle's own dinner, planned and
prepared by herself that you now
have before you"
All, wonderful" cried Uncle Ned.
And now / understand why Estelle
did not come to greet us on our ar
rival"
If you'd caught her as did
back in the garden" said Frank,
knowingly, you'd have seen her in
her kitchen regalia. And it's aw-
fully becoming, too"
You'd best pay attention to your
grape fruit, sir" said Estelle with
mock gravity. "And as for kitchen
regalia-well, how do you like fiirt-
ing with the cook"
Then the laugh was at Franks ex.
pense, his father saying dryly:
I'll have to keep watchful eye
on you, Frank, If you're given to

den. Next thing We'll have you ask
ing her to take a stroll with you

And so Estelle saved the day, and
the dinner and the visit were a de-
cided success. and Frank at partins
said, bending over her pretty hand:
Cousin. what would you think if
should tell you that I should love to
correspond with cook-lady?"
In order to get all her secret
recipes for dainty dishes, presume,

The "pensee" (pansy) is a clever

The button of braid seems to have

Large rosettes of goura, or crosse
aigrettes in white and colors are the
latest novelty.
Large quilts in various colors are
used extensively, sometimes seven or
eight being employed.
Those lovely painted tissues in ex-
tremely low scarf lengths now drape
one side OF low bodices.
Pretty trifies to wear in the hair
are silvered ornaments - flowers or
grasses-with knot of velvet ribbon.
A sleeveless coat of grey tulle is
worn with princess gown of white
Liberty satin and dotted Chantilly
net.
Aigrettes, paradise, ostrich feath.

in good demand and are as much fay.
ored as ever.
The button specially made for the
frock is beautifully turned out, Just
as II 1t had been bought on card at
so much per dozen.
This is season when garments
are cut in points SO as to provide
places for hanging the pendants
which are so very fashionable.
This is to be floral season, appar.
emily. All kinds of fabrics and rib
bons come printed or embroidered
with gay tinted flowers - enormous
flowers.
A narrow width will be introduced
on the apology for a waist--so short
in length is it and so extremely low
cut that often the decoration of a
couple OF folds and fringe combined
constitute the entire bodice.
Evidently the immense pocket fans
decorating the new directoire coats
are intended to attract attention. for
some OF them are placed only cou-
pie of inches above the lower edge OF
the three-quarter or longer coat.

A New Blue.

A beautiful shade of blue is being
exploited in millinery. 1t is very
dark dye of Beauvais, but there is
much more black to the present
shade. "Dusky blue" might best
characterize it, and yet there is great
indication of the smoke color, too.
The tone is universally becoming and
seems to go with anything, In the
new velvets and velveteens it is ador-
able. To render the hats more soft

covering of mousseline the same

Eight Gorcd Skirt.

The gored skirt that is relieved of
severity by some arrangement OF
pleats at front and back is among the
very latest to have appeared. This
one is charmingly graceful, yet quite
simple, and is adapted both to the
house and to street wear. The prin-
