Secrets of Good Advertising
Concentration all important

An eight-inch advertisement in one newspaper
will bring much bigger results than a two-inch adj
vertisement in four newspapers.
Don't skip around from one newspaper to an
other. Success in advertising comes from hammer
ing away at the same crowd.
Pick out the newspaper which has the kind of
readers you want for customers, and then stick. Ii
you want to make an advertisement hit all you need
to do is to talk to the reader of the newspaper as you
talk across the counter the counter to a customer.
Simply talk. That's all. Be sincere about it.
Let your words ring true. The people will listen
They like it.
The fact that your advertisement appears con-
lie confidence. Your shop advances step by step in
the estimation of thousands of people who may be
months in getting around to make their first pur-
chase.
Originality may be good, but an advertisement
that sells goods, even if copied, is better.

WHAT MAKES A

GOOD HOSTESS.
Two things are essential to q
successful party - agreeable
guests and a good hostess. The
first can be found quite easily
most people are willing to be
entertained. The second-wcll,

is as rare ms strawberries In

The good hostess is she who

well. h likes having people
that is the great secret. She
makes every one fee that they
have given her pleasure by
coming to her home, therefore

don't - care = whether = you -

there is "A warmth in voice and
manner which spells welcome"
to h guest. The atmosphere
then Is warm.
But this is not enough; 1T
must be kept at an even tenn
perature. Everything likely to
chill or to infnme must be
carefully excluded. The good
hostess wants her guests to en-
JOY themselves, and she lays
her plans 10 that 1t Is their own
fault If they do not. The people
who want to meet each other
are brought together, and left

SKIN HUMOR rs YEARS

even to my wife, l became an object
of dread. At large expense l consult
ed the most able doctors far and near.
Their treatment was of no avail, nor
was that of the - Hospital, during
six months efforts. l suffered on

heard of some one who had been cured

While the land is not titled for the

of experimentation has to be done in

methods of handling the, land. These
experiments are the same in kind as
should be conducted by farmers gen.
orally. The accounts are kept in such
form as to show the results of the diff.
ferent methods employed on the diff.

MUCH CARE NEEDED
CLEANLINESS IN KITCHEN is IN.
PERATlvE.
Remembrance That "Food and Fin
gers Are Carriers OF contagion,"
viii Help Along a Much
Desired Improvement.

There may sometimes be observed
in the cooked dish a loss OF flavor, not
a bad taste. but alack Of what is ap.
petizing. 1t would be interesting to
know in how many cases this comes
from a lack of cleanliness In utensils
and methods.
Personal cleanliness is of course es'
sential in the kitchen, and every good
housekeeper endeavors to maintain a
high standard in such matters. Some
food manufactures make special ef.
ports to secure cleanliness and hy-
gienic surroundings. and the good ex.
ample they set should be generally
followed.
Food and fingers are carriers of
contagion." The proper way of wash.
ing the hands, II seriously taught and
seriously practiced, in the market and
in the kitchen. would go far to remove
the source not only OF infection but
of such additions to the food as are
disgusting to think of In this mat
ter some food manufactures are
cleaner in their methods than are
our kitchens. In one large bakery,
where information was collected, the
rule is in force that every employe
shall wash his hands on returning to
the room after leaving 1t for any pur-
pose whatever.
The running tap, like the shower
bath, offers a great improvement over
old methods of washing Few will
have patience to fill and refill the
hand basin until the hands are bathed
az last in clean water, but this result
is easily accomplished under the tap.
The nail brush and nail cleaner must
have their place in the kitchen. and
their use must be insisted on before

Every one will admit that there IL
need for exercising great care in
coughing and sneezing wherever such
necessary acts may be annoying to
others. When one recalls that expert.
ment has shown that a fine spray OF
saliva may be thrown in all directions
for a distance of four or five feet by a
violent sneeze or cough, and that
often the cause of the cough or sneeze
is something which can be thus com
municated to others, IL is evident that
there is abundant reason for caution.
Particularly is this essential wherever
food is prepared, exposed or served.

II is often necessary to resort to
grating to save tree that has been

done by forming what is called a

be dressed by cutting away the rag
