Nothing But Electric Fan Could Ar
range Darling's Fur as i
Should BE.

Several persons marooned IN
Broadway drug store during a down
pour of rain learned a novel use for
an electric fan, says the New York
Sun. About four o'clock a woman
carrying a diminutive fluffy white dog
alighted from taxicab and entered
the store. That store keeps an cleo
tric fan ready for business the year
round, but that day it was not going,
The woman asked II the current could
be turned on. Being assured that It
could she said:
Then would you mind turning It on
for a few minutes want 70 dry
Penelope had to carry her for q
block in the rain and she got damp
and bedraggled'
When it dawned upon the clerk that
Penelope was none other than the
scrap OF dog he suggested that she
might be dried over the radiator.
THAT would never do.~ said the
woman. "She would look stringy.
When hair Of this texture gets damp
the very best treatment is to dry it
with an electric fan. 1t gives life
and tone. / am going to call ON a
woman who lives above this store.
She has never seen Penelope, but she
has heard what beautiful dog She
ii. and / want the little thing to look
her best. If you viii set the fan go
ing / shall be so much obliged"
The clerk turned on the current and
for ten minutes Penelope's tousled
looks tumbIed in the breeze.

The ABC and KY Of
ADVERTISING
A SERIES or TEN TALKS ON ADVERTISING Nj 4
written BY seymour Eaten Of Philadelphia 1NOs


story is told of prisoner who called the judge
fool The judge fined him $40. He paid the fine
but asked: DO you fine people for thinking, your
HONOR" The judge answered in the negative.
We'll" he said, Il think you're fool STILL"
If should print my personal opinion Of some big
advertisers like I'd get fined; but il is perfectly
safe to think
If a traveller came 70 you and talked Of the stuff
which his house prints advertising you would put
him down at idiot
The talk is unnatural; sounding brass and a
tinkling cymbal unreal nsncere, dead. The reader
feels that il isn't the advertiser who is talking that
there really isn't anybody talking that the words
just printing
Good advertising is good talk; the frank, honest
kind that convinccs
An advertisement Of one hundred words should
make the reader think five thousand words and
herein the whole secret Of good copy II isn't what
you say that counts but the chain Of thought which
your advertising creates.
The more you fuss over your advertising copy the
poorer the result It isn't job to stutter about to
apologize for or to burn midnight oil If you
want to make an advertising hit all you need to do
is TO talk to the reader Of the newspaper you talk
across the counter to a customer.

Advertising is a wildcat up tree. Once YOU

quite as difficult as the problem Of howlding On"
But what you need in either case is nerve; and
reasonable assurance regarding the future
1t rarely pays TO splurge Make your apprcpria-
tion deliberately and carefully Prepare good copy
Advertise continuously; every day At least every
week. Your store is the seed Or the plant The
advertising is the rain and the sunshine. You cant
rush the growth It may take weeks or months to
produce flowers or fruit.
