The revelations so far are enough to
show that the convict lease system in
Georgia as operated in recent years,
is a burning shame and disgrace TO
that state, and il is gratifying to know
that it is to be wiped our. Still the
difference between Georgia and Flori-
da in regard to the prison system in the
two states is one only of degree. The
system in both states is nearly the
same. If the convict lease system
must go from Georgia, it must also
be abandoned in Florida.

When the great project of building a

Advertising and news first cousins.
The railroad and the stage coach grandchid
and grandfather.
Four out of five advertisers still use stage coach
methods. The agency that distributes has the
quickest, cheapest and effective machinery for
distributing advertising. That agency is the news
paper.
The who passes your shop window is going
somewhere. He is other GRAND. If you
want to catch him when he is not in hurry put your
shop window in the newspaper; a few articles at a
time. You make hundred and fifty thousand
people look at this kind of window every day and with
much better selling results than if that hundred
thousand walked by your shop one by
know retail store in one of our large cities
a branch of Eng lish house whChuntiI the autumn
of 1906 managed by EngIishman; austere,
conservative, dignified who would have been
shocked to his shop advertised in American
newspaper. He had exclusive trade and his
profits amounted to about SZUOUO year. 1hIS
Enelshman died. His assistant aggressive young
American took charge. He advertised; advertised
continuously in the best local newspaper Last year
this exclusive shop made net profit of $50, 0OO
Why? Simply because there five hundred
thousand welto do people in that city who neverk knew
this shop existed until they those advertise
ments in the newspaper; and the shop has
cellent street location too.
This is a concrete case, the facts of which I
personally know. The En- lishman depended upon
the quality of his goods and his beautifully crested
stationery and his attractive shop window and his
perpendicular backed dress-parade clerks; all of
which above criticism. The young American put
the whole show into the newspaper; admission free.
Show ten shops which advertise regularly in
a daily newspaper and / will show you nine that
making money. The failure of the tenth is prob
ably due to bad MANAGEMENT of sort.
Some people value goods by the price they pay;
others by the shop in which they buy; others by the
effect the goods have upon their neighbors is only
the common workaday sensible people who value
goods by the goods If you want all four classes
customers it is your business advertiser to
make the cap fit.
