A SERIES or TEN TALKS on ADVERTISING NJ q
urlusn BY Seymour Eaton Of Philadelphia lNO,

The man who succeeds must fill his job so iu.l
that he buses out little at the top; where people
can see him The successful store must do the same
thing only in a different way
The goods must be on hand the prices must be
right the service must be commendable the trading
must be square the kind of square that has tour
equal sides and four right angles.
Every successful store has its trademark whether
the merchant knows it or not. Its advertising and It's
service have created public sentiment in its favor
which neither reverses nor fire time obliter
ate Nine times out of ten this trademark is the
stores biggest asset
Much Of the ordinary store advertising is hand
to-mouth sort of business; effort to make tomor
rows sales equal to today's yesterdays and this
Just true of the department store of the small
er shop. The advertisement appe ars in the morning
and the merchant figures out the net results in the
evening II is true that the bargain advertisement
of today is of little if any, next week 1t is for
gotten in twenty -four hours but if the store makes
feature of genuine bargains then each bargain sale
helps to advertise the bargain department The
advertising ought to be done in such way to
permanently advertise the department well to
emphasize the bargains of the day
Don't 90 at il as if you were advertising an
auction sale AS said at the outset your store is the
seed in the soil the advertising is the rain and the
sunshine inexperienced advertisers dig UP the seed
every evening to if it is growing; pull up the
young plant by the roots because it didn't bear fruit
flowers the first week
1t is safe to say that not more than third of
the people looking for bargains; the other two
thirds looking for quality and style The very fact
that the goods offered at bargain prices leaves the
impression that there is something wrong with the
quality or that the style is season behind. Good
advertising should enable merchant to sell $40 coats
at SIS instead of SIS coats at $3.50 in other words
should create confidence rather than doubt As in
stocks and bonds, the securities quoted above par
always desirable in the thought of the investing
public than those quoted at discount.
Advertising is q tremendous force which IN action
contradicts all mechanical laws The circumference
and speed and working power increase, while the
motor remains the same.
Make your advertising continuous. This Is the
first great secret of success. Copy and medium and
circulation all subordinate to keeping everasngIy
at it.

CHEWING CUM.

Chewing gum ia undeT the ban in los Angeles department stores. No girl who is a victim of the gum hasit will be allowed to hold position, says the Los Angeles Herald. This may cure some girls of the habit. but We do not think the reformation will be general It is evident that a campaign will be necessary for the purpose of attacking this evil which is strengthening the underjsws of the women of our race, increasing their yocabularies and making tnem more formidable in the art of oratory. The gum habit is. indeed. one which seems to stick to the victim upon whom it fastens itself. It seizes girls of tender age and remains with them until death. do part It gives perpet- ual motion to faces which would be handsome if in repcse. It weakens the will power, and one package of gum will lead to another. Oh. gentle readers. beware of the first gumdrop, for 1t will awaken craving for gen uine chewing gum. If nothing else will alright you out of this perniclous activity, let us assure you that physi- olOgists say the lower jaw is being unduly developed by the sum habit, and that the woman of the future will have a face which will stick out be- low like the forefoot of a battleship. Oh, beauties of Los Angeles, pleads the Herald, if you would maintain the reputation of our city for lovely women, form an anti-gum league and sign pledges to refrain from the use of the morbid exudatiOn (for, believe us. that is what gum really is-a mcr, bid exudation) and wear a neat, pep, permint colored ribbon to tell the world you belong to the league

The situation In the metal market at present Is peculiarly sensitive to rumors. good or bad, for the reason that so far this year the consumption ger erallv has heen less than in lSb!.
 In silver prices have been cut to a point where t is almost impossible for the smaller mines to continue v. ork.

DOUGLAS, May zs.-(SpeciaI.) J. Solomon Goodman, the c avenue ge~ eIer whose slOre was entered and rOb6ed of a large quantity of iewelrv some time since, yesterday got a tel egram from Cananea reporting the capture of a man who is believed to be the thief who pulled of the job and of the finding of a quantity of iewelry which Is thought to be at least a part of the swag which the burglar obtained here. Mir Goodman left for Canana yesterday evening to identity and recover his goods and to take steps for the prosecution of the thief.
 It is reported that the discovery was brought about by an officer from Agua Prieta. who was called to Can anea on other business and who came upon the suspected man and recoy- cred the goods while engaged in rne other business which had called him to the big Mexican camp.
 It will be remembered that Good mans place, which is connected with Sparks pool room was entered al night and all of his most valuable goods in stock taken. those of less value being left. Since then no trace of the criminal had been found until the officer came upon him in Cananea and promptly notified Mir. Goodman of his find

THE REAL BRYAN"

Richard L. Metcalf, former editor of the Omaha WorId-Herald, has com piled a book entitled The Real Bryan" containing the best things written or spoken by William J. Bry- an On I50 subjects political and non political In concluding his introduc- tion the author says. answering his own question: What is the explana- ton of Bryan?":
 Nature has gifted Mir. Bryan with a remarkable face-such a face as could be carved upon a ooin and rot be out Of place He has @ physical yfgOr which makes h.s u1studied gss- lures forcibIe and emphatic. He has an eye which is by turns commandiEg and humorous. And he has a voice which is, equally adapted to tender less or .denunciation. All these nat ural gifts has William J. Bryan and to them is added e talent for re- search, a genius for accuracy and a nature for truth. Let Nebraska con grstulate herself that she has an ora tor who possesses the physical and mental qualities to make him a re  rnarkable man in the history of th,s nation. And if the Worid-Herald reads the stars aright, the time will come when W. J. Bryan will have a repu- tation which will reach far beyond Eebraska-and it will be reputation for the performance Of good deeds"

Such a report continues to be consistently circulated and there are hose who are supposed to know something of the intentions of the company who believe it to be cor rect The starting of the reduction plant at Cananea, or even a portion of it, would have a stimulating effect in that district. as well as in the dis tricts on this side of the line.

A REMEDY THAT
 FAILED TO BENEFIT.

Duing the life of the fifty ninth con gress there was enacted a measure providing for untaxed denatured alco- hol. says the Washington Post. Mum erous able, eloquent. fervid and pa triotic speeches were made upon the bill, and the argument was that upon it's passage the American farmer, poor o'erlabor'd wight" would be enabled to turn certain waste pro ducts, such as oorncobs, cornstalks, potato parings and things into by products, and incidentally the result was 10 be that John D Rockefeller and the Standard Oil company would fall into liquidation end possibly make a progress through court of bankruptcy. At any rate, there was to be no more coal oil drawn from the bowels of the earth.
 Well. the bill passed and is today a law. A little denstured alcohol has been made under it's provisions at 8 cost of 36 cents a gallon. whereas to injuriously affect the Standard Oil company it should have been pro duced al not more than IS cents a gallon. h Germany denatured alec hol is made for 26 cents a gallon, and even there it would be run out of the market if a paternal government did not protect it by a heavy duty on coal oil.
 It is HOW sought to persuade the government to. make experiment in the manufacture of denatured alcohol and if it succeed in producing it at q cost low enough to put the Standard oil octopus out of business, civil ser vice agents of the agricultural depart ment are to be sent into the rural regions to teach the farmers how to distu the stuff at a price that will make him independeat of the kero- sene and gasoline ma4.

 And right has triumphed over wrong! The promptings of a heart that quailed. The words affection meant to tell, The praise that died ere yet it bloomed- Will stand revealed when all is well. The ones who left us sore and hurt,
 The erring ones who sinned and fell, The crushing of our hearts with woe
 At death-the coffin and the knell: The hopes that died. the plans that failed, The pain and suffering we bore, When we have reached the better land
 Will stand revealed and be no more! Then we shall understand the world,

The fat man found the shoes and pro ceeding to an empty seat sat down to pull them on. Then he noticed they were not his shoes. He peeked over the seat at the slim gentleman. The only part of his anatomy visible was the feet and they were clothed in shoes.
