on the nth of January 1863. to be
precise-he was born in Manchester,
the son of a struggling schoolmaster.
Today his name Is constantly upon the
lips of men of every shade-and no
shade-of political opinion; cities
have accorded him the honor of their
freedom, universities have showered
upon him their favors.
Lloyd George is where he is large
ly because of his persistent readiness
to take his political life in his own
hands and fllng it fearlessly into what
ever cause he might espouse.
When Mr., Asqulth became Premier
and the chancellorship of the exche-
quer became vacant. Lloyd George
met with his reward. The control
of the national finances passed into
the hands of the once obscure village
lad
He speaks with a silver tongue. and
carries his audiences away with his
impassioned oratory. But, like most
impromptu speakers. he suffers in
cold print The speech that appeals
thrillingly to the ear seldom appeals
to the eye.
And, like the report of one of his
speeches, his personal appearance is
liable to be disappointing to the per-
son who meets him for the first time.
He would be almost insigniflcantly
small but for the power of his fea-
lures. the size of his head, and that
Sphinx-like smile which dominates
his face 81 had heard and read so
much about Lloyd George" once de-
clared the chairman of n meeting in
South Wales, that ! naturally eX-
pected to meet big man in every
sense; but, as you can see for your
selves, he Is very small man in stat
ure."
Lloyd Georges retort was equal to
the occasion, and characteristic of one
so small in body and so potential in
politics. 81 am grieved to find that
your chairman is disappointed in my
size" he said quietly, "but this is
owing to the way you have here in
the south of measuring a man, In
North Wales we measure a man from
his chin up, but you evidently measure
him from his chin down"
Lloyd George has all the fervor of
the Celtic spirit in his blood, but
his passion Is ever under control, and
over and above all other things his
sense of humor flourishes. I'VE must
give Home Rule not merely to Eng
land" he said once, addressing some
Welsh miners, "but also to Scotland
and Wales"
"And Home Rule for hell" inter
posed an exasperated voice.

JUDGE DOESN'T LIKE
"TTY COPS" GAME

New York-The records show that
Fred McNerney, a dentist of 352
Sixth avenue, was accused before
Magistrate Breen in the Jefferson
Market court by Special Officer Frank
Reeth of the Metropolitan Street Rail-
way company of having picked up a
transfer ticket at Thirty-fourth street
and Sixth avenue and used it to pay
his fare on a south bound Sixth ave-
nue. car.
McNerney said it was his own
transfer that had blown from his
hand.
Thereupon Reeth said he and an
other special policeman had been
watching that transfer for over ten
minutes.
"Oh, ho," exclaimed Magistrate
Breen. 1T was a plant, was it? You
planted it there and were waiting to
grab anybody who should pick 1t up.
Do you think that was right? I don't
like that kind of business. The pris-
oner is discharged.

Value Of Advertising to the Buyer
By Seth Brown in the Commercial Union

We hear good deal about the good af ad-
vertising to business.
Now suppose we turn the subject around

Good is mighty broad.
1t takes in both sides

It's power and efficiency is relative to its
perfection of balance-usefulness to buyer
and seller.
And now for the buyer.
Life is more a scientific problem today
than yesterday.
Tomorrow it will be more perfect
The striving pushing, jamming and gen
eral hurry of mankind is not an evidence of
unrest but rather of continual effort tow

Of existence.

physically and financially.

Trying, each in his sphere, to live better,
enjoy more comforts, better pictures, wear
more harmonious clothes and eat better grub
Into this mass of human striving comes
man like Heinz of Pittsburg, for instance
of Frank Van Camp, of indianapolis or
hundred other ordinary mortals who have
Just done little in making things more
comfortable our insides.
Every farmers wife and some city wives
know how to bake beans and ''put up" pick
les but Heinz and Van Camp do it a little
more scientifically then everybody
can't be farmers wife.
Heinz used to CRATE up horseradish and
peddle it from basket. That, and the good
influence of his mother was his business
foundation His son told me all about it.
'but that is another story"
don't know how Frank Van Camp hap
pened to start baking beans. 1t doesn't
matter.
Somehow Heinz and Van Camp learned
how to do an old fashioned thing little bet
ter than most houekeepers can do it and
mighty sight better than the majority of
"dear little wifeys."

Men and women like good things to eat.

are right.

man on the package.

Pickles and beans are only used as a type

Drop the wife down in country where
advertising is unkonwn and her days would

full of bad dreams.
It's advertising that has made us more
civilized
1t smooths off the rough edges of ray cX-
perence and lets us glide smoothly down the
way in the big open peaceful sea of har-
mony-and good living
1t costs the advertiser lot of money to
make and maintain a reputation.
He can never do it without the right kind

But a foundation is not home. 1t is
mighty good and important beginning but
regular, persistent, intelligent advertising is

Those who can advertise their store or
product in harmony with this simple story

Those who cannot might study law, med
icinc, preaching, be politician or mission
airy.
The public will overlook shortcomings in
other directions but in the purchase of its
necessities and luxuries it needs no text
book or philosophy to prove value.
And it has learned that advertising is a
short cut to what it wants and what it can
depend on.
The value of advertising to the buyer is

Portland police were much inter-

and at the detective bureau her case
was discussed freely yesterday. She
is we'll known in this city, having
been arrested several times during
the past six years. She was first TAX
en- into custody here six years ago by
charge. She is not known to have
sued any Oregon transportation COM
panies for damages. Her home is in
Salem, her maiden name having been
Wagnon. It is in the name Of Maud
Wagnon that the local police have her
booked.
Scandal is Hinted At.
Efforts made last night to learn
further details of the suspected con-
spiracy in Northern Pacific circles, by
which 1t is said the woman shared
her damage claim with officials OF
the road, were not successful. It was
said that the fight against the extra
dition of the woman from Pendleton
was inspired by others than the wo-
man herself, but attempts to get the
names of those interested in keeping
Mrs. Johnson from taking the stand
and testifying came to naught.
There is persistent rumor in Van
couver legal circles, however, that an
effort will be made Monday to break
down the woman's reserve, and to get
her to tell facts about her damage
suits that have so far been hidden.
One Vancouver official declared last
night that If Mrs. Johnson would tell
all she knew there would be a scan
dal in the Northern Pacific claim de-
partment that would rival the Cor
don scandal on the Great Northern.
