WINNING PUBLICITY,
What Can Be Done by Judicious
Advertising.
BRINGS SHOPPERS AND TRADE
Value Of Attractive and Extensive Ad-
vertising as Proved by Successful
Venture of Enterprising Storekeeper,
Print Prices, Use Plenty Of Space.

Many merchants who pay for space
their advertising is SO poorly arranged
rs to attract little attention and not
Impress those who read it. Sometimes
the printer fails to make the right kind
Of showing, and, while the reading
matter of the advertisement may be
all right, the display is such as to be
unattractive.
1t is always we'll to present prices
In your space. Pick out seaSonable
goods Il make Il run On Il few spe-
tialites. 1t requires only Il little
thought to fix up Il few exceptional
bargains in certain lines OF goods.
These should not be sold at Il loss, but
ut Il good profit if the matter be man
aged rightly. The principal thing de
sired is to set the people to call at the
store, and when they cali be sure To
make good and prove that your adj
verlisement means all that it repre-
sented. Ii you advertise cheap canned
goods, cheap anything, and you know
the goods are cheap, not up to the
standard of such articles, tell the peo-
pie 50 and have something just Il little
better and tell them the difference.
There is little use i'll advertising TO
attract people to your store and then
fall down in the craftsmanship part.
The fact that one calls at Your store
md asks 10 see certain kinds of goods
is evidence that that person is in the
market TO buy, and it is YOUR business
to supply his wants.
Not long ago in Il western town OF
some $50 population the merchants
had an Illustration OF what can be
done by judicious advertising. The
proprietor of Il clothing and dry goods
store decided that he would add Il
grocery department. This met with
the disapproval Of other merchants In
the town, particularly the srocers.
They combined and commenced AN
advertising campaign directed chiefly
against him. Small space was used.
They We're greatly surprised one morn
ing to find that the object OF their at
tention had in the daily paper a four
page advertisement. They were fur

the surrounding towns came out with
one and two page advertisements Of
fering wonderful bargains and to pay
the railroad fare of those who would
purchase a certain mount OF goods.
For miles around the town large post
ers announced the great sale.
Other merchants of the town looked
upon the entur as foolish and pre-
dicted that there was something
wrong, a failure or Il fire i'll sight. Nei-
Their happened, but in two weeks time
the enterprising storekeeper, who ad-
vertised to sell twenty-siX pounds of
granulated sugar for Il dollar when the
jobbing price was more than So Il hun
bred, provided the purchaser ordered
other goods, did a business amounting
to more than $4,000, or as much bust
ness as the average small storekeeper
does in a year. Not alone that. but he
is still doing the biggest business in
the town. He advertised rightly.-Ag-

Girdling Globe In Iron Mask.

Three Rats Save Woman's Life
They Were In Her Hair When Hotel Elevator Fell and Broke the
Force of the Shock.

Three hair rats laid across her head
under a lu1uriant growth of golden
brown hair saved the life of Miss
Laura Wind. seventeen years old. of
Dixon. Mo-. in the Planters hotel at St.
Louis. The rats served as a buffer
against Il heavy wire cable which came
down in the wreck of an elevator. The
cable crashed through the top of the
car and struck the girl On the head.
She was knocked insensible. and at
first it was believed she was dead.
The physicians in the City hospital
said that undoubtedly Miss Wind owed
her life to the rats. She sustained Il
scalp wound and was taken. still I'M
conscious, to the operating room in the
hospital. The doctors thought her skull
was fractured. but examination re-
vealed that little injury had been done.

Value of Shade Trees.

Shade trees should be planted in all
towns and cities, and enough of the
pavement should be removed to let
these trees grow. Many old families
in New England towns owe not a lit
tie of their longevity to their shade
trees. The healthiest folk are in the
northwest, where there are most
clouds. 1t is we'll to get away from
the traditional opinion
brought to the United States from
cloudy northern Europe that sunlight
is good for people. In a measure it is;
in excess, fatal.

Watchword For Tradesmen.

Organization is the watchword of
the day. 1t is the part of system. 1t
means force and economy. A single
twig can be easily bent and broken.
A bundle tied together has strength
that defies the efforts of a giant. The
same in organization. One merchant,
II tradesman in any line, cannot we'll
bring about needed reforms. 1t re-
quires united action, and this action
can only be had when there is perfect
and harmonious organization.

1t is expected that the girl will be dis
charged from the hospital soon. She
was seen there the night of the acct
dent. sitting up in a cot with the three
rats on the coverlet.
"They saved my life. and I'll never
part with Them" she said. "Only the
other day mother asked me to discard
two of them. If l had. what would
have happened today? l will never go
without rats again. They're a protec-
ton against sudden death.'
The elevator dropped when descend
ing from an upper floor. The safety
clutches brought it to a stop, with a
terrific shock. at the third floor, and an
instant later the cable crashed through
the roof. Miss Wind and the elevator

1T appears that the iron mask as

long leap in the dark to marry a man
without a look at his face, but he will
probably have no difficulty in finding

there is a good chance of his pockets

passage by the two houses. The APP
preparation bills were gotten out of
the way in the senate the middle Of
the week, the upper house making a
new record for the passage of the
bills and disposing of forty separate
measures in two hours. The bills
have gone to the house and will prob
ably be passed by that body without
much delay. There is some friction
on the part of some house members
over one or two OF tho bills, but in
the end the bills rs passed by the
