One day king Christian sat on a
bench In the wood near F~redensborg,
smoking his cigar and whisking the
fallen leaves with his cane, when an
old peasant woman came along carry

beside the King. Looking at h White

Now the woman looked at the King
very suspiciously.

Then the woman folding her hands
and rolling up her eyes, sighed and
said.
Dear me. Dear me! I have seen
such things before. You have lost

reason. 1t is always that whiskey.

SO she walked along toward the cas-

as the woman stopped at the gate,
being at a loss where to go, the white
haired man from the wood stood, smil-

You are stronger than I. You can

The King did not object, so they both
stepped UP the stair to the kitchen de-

TORONTO, Sept. Admiral Lord
Canada several days. speaking at the
opening OF the Toronto exhibition, said
he had been struck with a vigorous
ard hopeful look of the young people
in Canada. Then he significantly de-
clared:
"There is a weary look about our
people in England, especially in the
cities.
IT would rather see a savage look
OH their faces, for there would be
fight In It. Maybe we are too crowded.
| shall certainly tell our country we
must get the look Of contentment,
health, hope and happiness which you
have so predominantiy over here"
Speaking of imperial subjects, Beres-
ford said:

tive policy, broad in its base, imperial
In It's object. The time for talking is
over, the time for action has begun.
There must be a carefully COM

at sea has been threatened in language

Get Big Men Behind You

The only way to get their maximum service
is to have them work in corps. That is how
our big men work.
A splendid example of what such men can
do is this agency itself-the largest Of its kind
in existence.
The Newark star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1909, 1909-09-01

These men are at your service, if you have
a line which offers them a chance.
They are willing to prove by a test campaign
that they can outsell any other men in the
field.
They can do it every time, in every salable
line. For they combine their abilities. And
this is the ablest corps of advertising men in
America.
We shall ask no contract, no commitment,
no statement of what you will spend. All will
depend on results.
We offer you this service-the service Of big
mentor, the usual agents commission; for
the price of the commonplace.
Our plea is this: Whatever is worth doing
is worth doing well.
These are days Of giants combats in the
advertising field. The man who strikes with a
puny stroke does himself an injustice.
If you believe in big men, and want to
know how to prove our powers, ask US to
state the way.

That was the doctrine Of Andrew Carnegie.
And that is the secret of every great business
success.
If you have big possibilities, get big men to
fulfil them.
Get them in every department. But, above
all, get big men in advertising-in selling you
goods to the millions.
The Newark star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1909, 1909-09-01

The big men are the profit makers in all
lines of craftsmanship.
You know that is true of your road men.
who meet but a few of your customers. Then
how true must it be of your salesmen-in-print?
Why does one article dominate a field, and
an equal one remain unknown?
Why does one advertiser win enormous sue
cess, and another in the same line utterly
fail?
Nine times in ten the reason lies solely with
the salesmen-in-print.
One employs capacity, one incapacity. One
fights with %cannons, the other with arrows.
And the curious fact is that both pay the
same price.
