He Sails For Coronation.
NEW YORK, June 12.-In order to
attend the coronation Of King George,
Rev. DR.. John Henry Jowett. pastor
of the Fifth-ave. Presbyterian church,
sailed today on the Adriatic for his
home. He was enthusiastic In his
praise of New York.
New York IL in the forefront OF
civilization" he said, "and as spiritual
in proportion as any other city. |
have found much virtue here, but II
doesn't advertise itself as does vice.
I'VE are living at terrific pace.
In New York everything Is done on
the run. Those who run fastest In
the mad race generally fall, and the
greater the pace the more disastrous
the fall. am well pleased with my
work so far"
Jowett explained that his personal
invitation to q seat at the coronation
came because of the kings desire to
show his friendliness to the non-Ep,s-
copal churches.

ADVERTISING TALKS.


THOUSAND FAMILIES three
times each week.
The advertising started, and
within a very few months the
returns indicated that Lindt
Ghoeofat was on sale IN e89d-0F
THE STORES conducted by the
reliable distributors in Greater
New York--a really marvellous
result for so short a campaign.
But then THE ADVERTIS-
ING WAS GOOD, AND RUN
REGULARLY, and the article
itself made good.
AS the campaign progressed,
the appropriation was IN
CREASED, which was justified
by the increasing sales. This al
ways happens when good adver-
Using is employed to sell good
article.
When the second years cam
paign starts, MORE NEWS
PAPERS WILL BE ADDED
TO THE LIST, and still larger
appropriation will be made, en-
tirely justified by the results from
this small, initiative campaign.
A NATIONAL DISTRIBU-
TON of the product will be next
| in order, and there wont be any
doubt about its success, because
it is being gone at in an intelli-
gent manner.
This is another demonstration
of WHAT NEWSPAPER AID

block him from getting license for

favored Kolodzfjski, however and
told Zoltowsh that II he wanted a

have TO close some other saloon. Aid
