GOOD ADVERTISING.

Tongue" in business is at a dis count. The modern salesman is the man who knows when not to speak, So of advertising. silence is often golden.
 Increase your effort as your field narrows. It is easier to sell SlO worth O: goods among a thousand people than to sell that amount among one hundred. If you have only hundred prospects, then work them hard.
 Good advertising cannot be called an expense, for it is only an invest ment. just as you place your money in a shoe stock or a line of furnish ings and you get your money out of 1t just as surely, and with possibly a better margin on the investment.
 No door is thick enough to keep out the newspaper and it's advertising, no chamber is too remote. or too quiet, for the favorite family paper; no sur veillance is so strict but the news paper is admitted. and it brings its message of wars. of elections, acci- dents. marriages. births and deaths and advertisements.-EX

a client whose case presented a mass of
technicalities, of which his lawyer took
every possible advantage. Before the
final argument and handing down of
opinion, however, the client was forced
to take a journey of some hundreds of
miles and was compelled to be absent
for several weeks. He arranged with his
result of the trial of his case, but told
him to so word his telegram that the adj
dressee alone would comprehend its i'm
port.
The result was the awarding of ver-
diet in favor of the litigant in question,
and his delighted counsel sent him the
following message:
"Justice and truth have triumphed."
What was his amazement at receiving
few hours later a telegram from his
client which said:
Yours received. Hard luck. Appeal
Immediately. "-Philadelphia Times.
