We seek mail order advertisers who are anx-
ious for way to reduce their selling costs.
We seek general advertisers who want to
find ways to get more results for their money.
We seek the wise men-the good business
men-the men who want actual proofs.
We will tell these men how, with absolute
certainty, to pick out the agent who can outsell
the rest.
We appeal for good business methods in ad-
vertising-such as you apply outside.
Employ salesmen-in-print on just the same
basis as you employ salesmen-in-person.
Accept no improved boasts. Sign no con-
tracts. Put it up to the men to make good.
That is the only way to place men on their
rnettle-to keep them at constant white heat
Cling to them as long as no other men can
outscll them. But always leave room to give
the better man show.
Advertising has not been largely done on
that basis.
The advertising agent has demanded a con-
tract, binding the advertiser for from one to
three years.
The contract was blindly made-rnade before
the agent had started to show results

We shall welcome the time when advertisers
in general awake to this fact, and employ it.
There is way to prove if your advertising

There is way to know if any agent can OUT

The way is easy. and the result sometimes

Craving for II Comes Natural,
but Beware of a

TT may be said that sugar has not
generally been taken seriously as a
food substance. Apparently on the
principle that what is liked Is usually
injurious, the passionate craving for
sugar seems to have peer regarded as
the craving was satisfied 1t was done
by eating the sugar to excess and the
logical result was looked upon as a con-
firmation of the injurious character of
the food. Recently, however, the food
value of the substance has come to be
recognized by scientific men, and a
writer in the Dietetic and HYGIENE Ga
zette urges that we cease regarding
it as a luxury and use it seriously in
proper quantities. We read:
Sugar as a substance marketed in
approximately chemically pure form is
a comparatively recent addition to
hunan foodstuffs. Indeed, it is prob
able that maple sugar was used by the
American aborigines earlier thar any
sugar of the same grade was known to
the inhabitants of the old world.
I'VE have not yet become accustomed
to taking sugar seriously as a food, but
persist in regarding 1t as a luxury
which appeals to the palate. I'm
doubtedly a good lea of the sugar on

stroke of public business. We doubt if here is a parallel for it in
any other city in the United States. 1t was by the vote of New
ark mainly that the Essex park system was acquired, and the day
is not far distant when the entire system will lie within the city
boundaries. That was a magnificent investment. City and county
have already gained in ratables by the acquisition much more than
the property cost, and will gain a hundred fold more. The same
farsighted policy now reaches out in two highly important dnec-
tions-to the meadows, for their commercial and Industrial de-
yelopment, and to the Wanaque watershed for a great supple
mentary water supply-both manifestly rich investments that will
amply repay the ciys enterprise, for both will prove valuable
public assets.

GREAT CITY 70 Become GREATER


ChronIcling the fact that prominent
business men Of ST. Louis. already the
slfth manufacturing city in the United
states. are raising fund Of s5oo.ooo
to secure more factories, the Fort
worth Record commends the move
ment and informs us that Fort Worth
has under consideration to raise $780,
600 for the same purpose.
At the first meeting OF the ST. Louis
men for the purpose Of considering
the project. eight firms subscribed
$4,000 each
The Record says: II st. Louis with
SO many factories considers 1t profit
able to spend s50O,000 to secure more
factories. It would seem that Fort
worth can well afford TO invest $780,
0o0 in new factories.
"Under the Fort Worth plan the
money subscribed IS not to be do
mated; 1t ID not to be used for bonuses
but to purchase stock in meritorious
new enterprises, and there is no rea-
son why every dollar invested viii not
bring a fair return.
1t Is noteworthy that the st. Louis
contributors who subscribe the large
amount Of $4,000 each are themselves
manufacturers. and that the head Of
the movement is Mr. A. D. Brown, the
president Of the HamiIton-Brown shoe
factory. These manufacturers know
from experience the value of manufac-
turing enterprises, and their conf
dence should serve TO persuade others
to invest"
likewise. it appears that II the
proposition for the citizens OF town
to invest their money in enterprises
for the promotion Of general advance
ment appeals to the st. Louis and Fort
Worth business men, it should appeal
with greater force to Chickasha.
Ii old established cities, whose rank
among the great centers OF trade and
industry is already secure, find It nee
essary to raise funds to keep the
wheels OF progress in motion, how
much more needful is this In young
city. just beginning its career.
Chickasha can well afford to learn
lessons from other cities. We can
afford to invest our money to get more
railroads and interurbans, more facto-
ries and more Of everything that
makes city, and the quicker we get
busy the better will the future Of the
city look.
