Newspapers Proved Best.

A unique experiment was recently
made by New York theater to de-
termine what is the most efficient
advertising medium. The manager
sent out $4,000 circulars, as MANY
more post cards and employed a
heavy contingent of sandwich men.
When the time for responses came
he had every person in the theater
answer the question. what kind of
advertising brought you here?'
This was put to each individual
who came in for a whole week. When
the answers were all tabulated it was
found that 75 per cent had answered
they came through the newspaper

That Sigel family in New York are
the authors of their own undoing, and
they did the right thing when they
buried their daughter as quietly as
possible, and tried to drop out OF
sight. When they allowed their
daughter to receive lot OF Chinese
admirers they had no right to feel
either aggrieved or surprised at sub
sequent events. The aspect OF this
murder case that will surprise the
public is that there is to be found an
American mother who would dellber-
ately lead her daughter into such q
situation, which could only lead to
death, or worse.
