three times each week.
The advertising started, and
within a very few months the
returns indicated that Lindt
Chocolat was On sale in $3.50 OF
THE STORES conducted by the
reliable distributors in Greater
New York-a really marvellous
result for SO short 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
always happens when good ad-
vertising is employed to sell a
good article.
When the second years cam
paign starts, MORE NEWSPA-
PERS WILL BE ADDED TO
THE LIST, and a still larger ap-
preparation will be made, entire
ly justified by the results from
this small, initiative campaign.
A NATIONAL DISTRIBU-
TON of the product will be next
in order, and there won't be any
doubt about it's success, because
it is being gone at in an intelli-

Has Made $4,000 In Addition To SAL
airy In Few Years.
Ira Thomas is going into the real es-
tate business in Philadelphia, and it's a
good guess to make that he viii own
half of the city If his old luck doesn I
forsake him.
Here are some instances of lras
luck: He was with the Providence
club when they won the pennant In
1910 and 1911. one year, 1909, ne
missed. and there was no cut-in on
worlds series money. Ira has cleaned
mn about $4,000 in the past few years
lin addition TO his salary.
Right now he is a good catcher ana
will earn great deal more before nc
gets out of the game. It'll be his luck
If he owns a club some day which VIII
win pennants and worlds champion
ships one after the other.
Some Of the ball players say that Ira
saves more than he makes However
Thomas is one of the late ball players
who thinks that 10 years is about all
for the player and he is looking out
for the end.
