Talking to the Child.

Mrs. X talks to little Madge
Just as Mr.. x talks to their dog"
said little girl Of neighboring fam
lily. And 1t was indeed true. Mrs.
x is very well-meaning woman
and would be greatly surprised If she
should hear the foregoing statement.
She has simply unconsciously acquired
a harsh tone OF voice in dealing with
her children. This is altogether I'M
necessary and is not. as many moth
ers seem to think mark OF good dis
cipline. The mother whose manner is
quiet but firm is generally a much
more successful disciplinarian than
the harsh-voiced mother who issues
her commands In dictatorial manner.
Kindness never spoils children 1t is
fabby indecision. sometimes mistaken
for kindness. which spells them.

The wearing of a bird upon the hat
may be in questionable taste and aa
present one sees almost no birds, but
any amount of plumage. Gradually
the wearing OF feathers may die out,
but the signs of the times do not point
that way. More plumage is shown
now than ever before. Women should
learn to discriminate in choosing it.
and select those feathers which they
may wear with an easy conscience.
They are obliged to inform themselves
in some states of the Union or run
the risk of FORGETTING their forbidden
property. For laws have been passed
and are enforced to protect certain
birds, and one may not own their

WHEN YOU BUY ADVERTISING
Remember, II Is the Newspaper That
Creates the Tangible Gen.
tiers Of Trade.
Try @ NJ ENENCONN

When our parents were satisfied TO
deal around the corner" there was
no need for newspaper advertising. At
that time the newspaper was simply a
gossip distributor. But with the COM
ing OF the f1ve-cent street-car rides
and rapid modes OF delivery we find
newspapers becoming a real factor in
commercial advancement.
There never has been and never
VIII be any means for advertising de-
vised superior to the newspaper. 1t
is the newspapers that create centers
or trade. because they are the force
that controls public opinion.
When you buy advertising space
you buy circulation, and circulation
can be measured just as potatoes can.
But It's the quality of circulation
that counts. not the quantity. 1t
therefore follows that n newspaper
that has circulation OF 10000 deliv-
cred to the homes of people is more
valuable as an advertising medium
than the papers having a circulation
OF 10000, the larger part of which pa
pers are sold on the street. because
people who buy papers on the street
rarely, If ever read the advertise
ments.
See the list of subscribers of a
newspaper and you can then Judge its
pulling strength.
You want to know where your story
is being read. 1t does you no good to
advertise In paper that circulaGes
largely among the poorer classes of a
city, because no matter how alluring
your statements, the readers have no
money with which to buy your goods.
It's the amount of circulation that
reaches buyers that concerns you.
There Is no magic about preparing
copy Tor good ad.-its contents
consist of plain, honest talk. II you
promise silks and deliver cotton, If
you promise diamonds and deliver
glass, If you promise hardwood and
deliver soft, that ad. is an injury
to you because it teaches the public
that you are to be avoided.
TO charge advertising with failure
under these conditions would be as
unjust as to make you pay another
mans bill.
YOU must give the adj time to germ
mate. Don't expect everybody to see
your ad. the first time 1t sppears.
More will see 1t the second time and
II continued you will soon have every
reader of the paper watching your an
nouncements.
The time necessary for the germina-
ton of the seed can be cut short by
using large space and carefully pre-
pared copy.

Ing took lots of faith Nothing of the
Kind; it just takes common sense.

scattered through a half dozen daily
papers, but you will not get the result
that you would had you spent the
same sum for one big ad. in one good

All advertising can do is to tell your
story to the man and woman at the
breakfast table or after the evening
meal. If the woman comes downtown
In response to that ad. it Is then up

Teddy Roosevelt didn't have
to know all the tricks of the

Users In history. He simply
thought something and spat 1t

And that's what every bust

those whose votes he canvassed. Now.
he said laying down his knife and fork
and holding up a finger. there was only
one man among all that / went to see
who had heard my name before, and
he was CIRCULATING librarian. Such is
mortal fame .
Thackeray's erratic methods of work
contributed to his early death. Il can

In 1858, than Thackeray's way of liv-
