GOOD FORTUNE CAME TOO LATE
Lifelong Unfortunate Killed Himself
at Moment of Lucks Turn.

A French provincial newspaper tells
story of the irony of fate. The hero
was a notary's clerk, named Lemer-
cier, who had remarkable series of
reverses of fortune.
He seems to have been a hoodoo,
for something was bound TO go wrong
with every firm he Joined in the ca
pacity Of clerk or cashier. Always Ill
paid and wretchedly unhappy, the
youth was in turn a gardener, por-
ter, a carter and anything else that
enabled him to buy bread, till after
Is years of a hand-to-mouth struggle
he returned to his native village of
Breval, near Nantes, and was taken
in by charitable person. In vain
he sought for work, and he contracted
some unavoidable small debts.
The other morning an imperative
knocking at the door announced the
emissaries of the law The wretched
Lemercier barricaded himself in and
then hanged himself. When a lock
smith had broken open the door LIE
mercier was dead. The intruder had
not come to arrest him, but to an
nounce that a distant relative had left
him legacy of $4,000.

HEARD ON THE BOURSE.

Pringle. Fitch & Cove advise own
ing some wheat.
A. J. White & Cove believe wheat
is going higher and would advise pur-
chases on all breaks from present
prices.
Bartlett, Patten & Cot appears to
us that wheat is on a legitimate com
mercial basis and we believe it can be
bought on the weak days with rea-
sonable assurance of profit. as the de-
mand will check any extensive decline.
Logan & Bryan-Wheat market is
too narrow for the present to buy on
bulges but all breaks we feel friendly
to the buying side.
McKenna & Rodgers-For the pres
ent wheat continues to look like a
scalping affair.
Clement Curtis & Cove do not
look for much material change in other
deliveries of wheat except in slight
sympathy with the September
Ware & Le1and-We regard the I'M
dertone to wheat market as strong
one and would favor purchases when
it declines.

soREs AT PUBLIC GATHERINGS.
Protest Against Prosy Utterers of
Dreary Commonplace.

Those who impute to us a national
lack of patience and politeness must
admit that there are occasions upon
which we deserve long mark for self
restraint and kindly consideration of
the feelings of our tormentors. I'm
doubtedly altruism is one of the finest
jewels in the moral crown, but it has
its limits, and at the close of a sea-
son that has abounded in lectures and
debates it seems a fitting time to pro-
test against their being stretched be-
yond the point of human endurance by
downright bores in the shape of chair
men and speakers, who vocally amble
on and on while their audiences, how
ever they may chafe inwardly at the
waste of time and mental irritation,
begotten of a dreary rehearsing OF
commonplace, sit as patiently as
dumb puppets.
In private their victims discuss the
advisability of a stiff civil service
course for chairmen who apparently
are of the firm conviction that they
are expected to make the longest ad
dresses of the occasion over which
they preside, and certainly they as
well as other speakers frequently
stand in need of training in the direc
ton of much thought and few words
Vogue.

HORSES CHEW UP TREES
Residents of Rimbach Ave,
Make Kick Against De
livery Wagon Drivers.

Residents along Rimbach avenue and
Ann street have a serious matter that
they would like to call to the attention
Of the civic committee of the Hammond
Business Mems Club.
1t is the destruction of trees and
lawns permitted by the drivers of de-
livery wagons. All of the horses are
trained to await the return of the
drivers, but invariably when the driver
is making the delivery of the goods in
the house, the horses move a few steps
from their places and nibble at the
trees, some of which are young and
tender.
The residents along the streets who
take a pride in their trees and lawns
have demonstrated with the drivers re-
peatedly for permitting this practice
but seemingly without avail.
Some of the grocers have lost some
of their delivery trade along these
streets and may not know the reason
why. Their drivers will not tell them
but the civil Improvement association
could find out for them.

SERIES OF TEN TALKS ON ADVERTISING Nj =
by Seymour Eaton of philadelphia ISO' -

Never spring big newspaper advertisement upon
the public Unexpectedly.
Make it an invariabe rule to lead up by two
three nicely graded steps to the important
ment to be made People take certain pleasure out
of anticipation They enjoy their dinner all the
if they have been anxiousy waiting to hear the bell
But if you open up your morning newspaper and find
bazed forth in big headlines the advertisement of
something startingy you stunned rather than
interested. If, however, for two three days you
have been looking for this announcement and each
day getting little curious about you get your
self keyed up in anticipation and then the
ment is better than you had imagined you
render in body
Don't pay the United States government two
for carrying letter circular worth less than
two cents.
The average advertiser will shave off IS cents a
thousand envelopes and quarter of cent pound
paper and beat down the printer in price that he
is obliged to 30-cent ink and by various other
economies get his material ready for Sc thousand.
He will then pay the government $40 for carrying his
stingy, bady-printed, cheap-lookng Sc worth of
stuff and pat himself on back being economical
Don't waste gray matter on your competitor. No
matter how entertainingly he lies, you 60 right on
telling the plain blunt kind of truth that moth
to-make
Truth can be made far entertaining than
falsehood Don't be afraid to call spade spade.
If the goods shoddy advertise them shoddy,
give good shoddy measure, and charge shoddy prices.
There tens of thousands of people who prefer
shoddy prefer to eat it, to it, to be entertained
by it.
If you have news to print about your store-some
call advertising-do order twenty three styles of
type with whirligig boz and crazy, badly
ed picture The mum New Years Day or the
clown at Barnum's may look funny, but he couldn't
make good the road selling gold watches. The
advertiser has idea that the fool things he
drags into his copy the entertaining it is. The
clown has the very idea.
The great thing in all advertising is not quantity
of circulation but quality of your copy printed in
newspaper the readers of which able to buy your
goods.
