 What value has type-the manner in which an ad is displayed-to do with it's effect?'I asked.
 What salesman's voice Is to him, type is to an advertiser" was MT. Sternes reply. Bold, flamboyant. sky rocket advertising may be lkened to a man who is making a speech He IS screaming at the top of his voice so that 5000 people may hear him. The we'll rounded. well expressed. modest ad ap- peals individually. as well collectively, to every reader of the newspaper It is much more complimentary to talk to each reader as though he or she were the only onc instead of shouting to the public en masse in stentorian tones."
 And let me say in conclusion" said Mr Sterne, that there are many ways of advertising outside of the newspapers. One of the most effective is courtesy. The courtesy of employees, the courtesy of ex- eoutives, the courtesy of bundle carriers, the courtesy of telephone operators-in fact, courtesy appeals as largely to the world of feminine shoppers as any other asset know of in advertising"

10000 SEEKING
 STATE OFFICES

Jackson, Miss, May 1-(Special9 IT b. prospect is that there will be nearly 10000 candidates in the state of Mississippi be- fore the August primaries. There are @ counties, and 100 candidates to the county is not too liberal an estimate of the num- Der of citizens in each, whose patriotism takes the office-seeking turn. In one of the interior counties, Lealle, by actual count, there are IA candidates announced in the county paper. New ones come out every week, and the chances are there will be 125 in that county before primary day. This does not include candidates for state and district offices, of whom there are quite a number. Even counting 100 per county, the candidate army will be nearly half as large as that the United States government has recently assem- bled on the Mexican border, and every mothers son of them is well trained aud thoroughly drilled for the work in hand
