LESSONS OF THE ELECTION.

LE1SONS VI NE ELEN lON.
Prosperity and q revival of business
are spelled by the election of Taft
That is the general view of business
men, Is expressed last night after the
result of the election was no longer in
doubt.
The revival in industrial and com.
mercial fields is not to be confined to
any particular kind of business, but
will be general in the belief of those
who are qualified to speak. All lines
oftrade and industry will feel the ben.
e6cial effects of that Taft election.
The revival is likely to begin almost
Immediately and will continue in ever
increasing volume during the next six
months or so until the affairs of the
nation in a business way are once more
normal.
RAILROAD men and bankers, manu-.
facturers and merchants, stock brokers
and board of trade men all join in de-
claring that the transformation of for.
mer Judge Taft into President.elect
Taft means theend of depression. One
of the immediate effects Of the election
will be the carrying through of many
deals, and many of them for large
sums, which were awaiting the success
ofthe republican nominee. It is stated
that millions of dollars are represented
in business transactions which were de-
pendent on Taft's election. All this
volume of business will now be electri.

TOO MUCH REFORM"

Ii. q the Lincoln journal asserts,
the brewery owners were responsible
for tho defeat of Governor Sheldon,
they were not the only cause that con.
txibuted to the election ola democrat

Governor Sheldon is . fair minded
man, and that he does not entertain nor
has he been in harmony with some Of
tho radical ideas of reform which the
so-called progressive press demanded.
Governor Sheldon's administration got
Ill that it asked for and al that the
Republican party demanded. Passen-
GER ratee were reduced one-third, the
terminal tax bill passed, . railway
commission secured and the commod-
ity bill enacted. But the demand for
other alleged reforms on the eve Of q
presidential campaign created disoord
within the party which the state com.
mittee could not harmonic.
For weeks before election the Anti
Saloon League commenced sending out
circulars requesting Republicans to
work against candidates of their party

Beads are, perhaps. the oldest kind
Of ornaments in all countries of the
world. and among savage races their

The beauties Of ancient Rome were
very much in favor Of wearing amber
beads, amber having been introduced
after the expeditions of the Romans
to Northern Europe.
Glass beads we're first made by the
Egyptians, and the Phoenicians who
traded with Cornwall in far-of times
brought glass beads to the British
maidens, and when some of the an
cient "barrOws" were opened quanti-
ties of glass beads were found, as
fresh in coloring as the day they were
placed there with the corpse, says

Venetian beads are world famous
on account of their. marvellous hues
and designs and. among the many At

James G. Blaine once said to Colon.
Ell A. M. Mcclure: 81 am the Henry
Clay of the republican party; I can
never be president" With even great
er justice w. j. Bryan may regard
himself as the democratic Henry Clay.
These are the only two men to be thrice
defeated for the presidency.
Clay was first q candidate in 1924,
when he was AZ years oid-eleven
years older than Bryan in 1896. He
was fourth in the electoral colleges and
j. @. Adams got the decision when the
contest was thrown into the house Of
representatives. In 1882 Clay ran
against jackson, but got only forty
nine votes to his opponents 219. His
third and final contest was against
Polk in 1874, when he was beaten by
sixty-6ve in the electoral colleges.
1t was an affecting scene at Ashland,
Clay's home, when the Kentucky cleo
tors sent committee to condOle with
him. At the close of the chairman 3

friendly wishes for my happiness in the

GOVERNOR HUGHES TRIUMPH.
The news of Governor Hughes vic
tory will be received with profound
satisfaction throughout the United
States. Democrats as we'll as republi.
cans will be pleased by it because the
victory is victory for decency, for
morality and for law.
Hughes has been great executive.
Back of his extraordinary abilities q
splendid will has been at work. He
has gone on un6nchingly from one re-
form to another. He has succeeded in
correcting the abuses that crept into
the management of powerful corpora-
tions; he has placed those corporations
under public control; he has accepted
the challenge of gamblers and all their
long train of vile associates and he has
given them drubbing that they will
not forget in many a year.
Could there be better proof that the
best politics, even from the standpoint
Of expediency, is the politics that is
inspired by devotion to principle?
Hughes triumph will act as q tonic.
It will dismay the big and little graft
ers in all the states, give heart to re.
formers everywhere and add to the
prestige that the governor has enjoyed
because of his admirable record and
remarkable achievements.-Ch Chicago

"A DEMOCkAllC VIEW.
An administration with Mr.. Taft at
its head may be looked forward to with
out apprehension or fear Of unseemly
or serious disturbance. He has intel
lect, dignity, experience and balance.
Relieved of the necessity of acknow.
lodging political expendiency, candor
demands that We restore to him the
qualities he declared before he became
the candidate of his party. It is only
essential that Mr.. TAFT asserts himself
and shake off the domination of Mr..

ADVERTISING
.:s.'fs .: II. 1 s::.: ." :: No
have bunch Of letters from advertisers asking
me to criticise their advertisements to tell them
wherein the copy is bad or good.
1t is nearly all bad but most bad advertise
ments pay. The better the copy, as general rule.
the better the results. Good copy for one class Of
trade might be very poor copy for another But there
are few broad general principles which always
true.
Your advertisement should be attractive enough
to catch the eye. Size doesn't do this. two inch
single column card may be made to attract more
notice than an announcement as big sheet Of note
paper. your advertisement isn't seen it isn't read,
and if it isn't read matter if it has ten million
circulation it isn't worth postage stamp You
not investing in circulation but in readers Of adver-
tisements.
The next point is to make your advertisement
readable. As rule the most readable copy printed
in fairly large book type; one kind Of type with
display heading two and the reading matter divided
into easy paragraphs. Most advertisers think that by
crowding the space to its utmost they getting
bigger value for their money. Within reasonable
limits the very opposite is true. Ten words read
worth more than ten thousand words looked at.
fl were advertising retail shop and found
that my advertising appropriation would allow to
take two inch card daily in four newspapers should
multiply the two by four and take eight inch card
in one newspaper.
But the scret Of copy is personality; red hot
hustling life. Like breeds like. If your shop is
hustlng go-ahead and this spirit is reflected
in your advertising the contagion win soon spread.
The first hundred customers the hardest to get;
the second hundred come in about half the time the
third hundred are attracted by the crowd.
The full page announcements of the department
stores overshadow the small dealer; but there is
opening up great field in every big city for the at
tractve advertising of the smaller shop. This ad-
vertisng must be done in a new way; it must be
pleasing, refined convincing; it must appeal to the
individual who loves quiet rather than noise the very
antthesis of the broadside bargain advertising 50
