BISSELL IS RUSHING

Work is now being pushed on the

for the future uses of the concern.
In a letter from the proprietor Of Bis
sells Bazaar. A L. BisselI, reproduced
in today's issue OF The Times, It is
explained that much of this steady
growth in business has been due to ju-
dicious advertising. Mr.. Bissell said
today that a recent advertisement in the
Sunday evening edition of The Times
brought the biggest days business bis
place has known since last Christmas
After explaining that the question Of
a daily medium for advertising did not
trouble him, as the daily Times had al
ways brought satisfactory returns. Mr..
Bissell continues.
The question of Sunday advertising
was one that puzzled me considerably,
and after talking over the situation and
Weighing It seriously I decided 10 print
the opening announcement of our Great
Removal Sale IN the Sunday Evening
Edition OF The Washington Times. The
only advertisement used was in your
paper. and our business on Monday,
November !, was the best we have had
since our holiday business last Christ
mas. You can rest assured that the
Sunday Evening Times has proven that
It is all and more than you claim
for it."
Talking on the subject today. Mr..
Bisseil said: Advertising, I believe, is
buried in a blanket Sunday paper. /

moval sale OF 1eWelTy, novelties and

.COLBURN
IS CONVINCED.
Learns by Sad Experience
With Tobacco Trust.
Good Price for Tobacco Dumped
at 0wensboro But Gets
Short Weight.

Mr.. Charlie Colburn, who lives east
of Hartford and who has heretofore
been a faithful member of the Society
of Equity, yielded to the seductive
influences of the Tobacco Trust and
one day last week hauled a thousand
pound load of tobacco to Owensboro,
and sold it at 50, s and 2, thinking
he had been given a splendid price
and probably more than he would get
in the pool. However, when his tobac-
co was weighed, it fell off four hun
dred pounds on the one load re-
ducing amount received to such an
extent that it brought him about 81, 4
and /, something near the old price
paid by the Trust before the pool
was originated. Mr.. Colburn was in
this office one day this week and re-
quested that We give publicity TO this
transaction together with his ac-
acknowledgement of his mistake and a
promise TO stand by the American
Society of Equity in the future. TO
use Mr.. Colburns own words, IF /
ever dump another load of tobacco, it
will be in the river" He says that
he is hereafter solid for Equity if he
can be forgiven, and will stand by
the organization until death.

Wages in Canada.

Canadians living in the maritime
provinces of that country recognize
how much it would contribute to their
prosperity could they have free ac-
cess to the markets of the United
States; but there is no prospect of
their receiving such advantage. The
wages paid in Prince Edward Island,
as officially reported, tell the story.
"There was shortage of labor on
the farms the past summer" the re-
port states, because the young men
go to the Far West and TO the Unit
ed States, where better wages are
paid. Women labor in the fields, re-
ceiving from So to $40 per month with
board, for ~ hours work. Men, under
similar circumstances. get from SIS to
500 per month" The United States
workmen do not care to compete with
such poorly paid workmen.
