On Jan. l the sanitary law in Ten
nessee becomes effective. DIR. Lucius
F. Brown, state hotel inspector. and
DIR. J. A. Albright, secretary Of the
state board OF health, met with several
leading hotel men Of the state We'd
nesday In Nashville and went over the
new law, as well as the rules and
regulations recently prepared. The
hotel men expressed themselves as be-
Ing In hearty sympathy with the law,
with the one exception of sections,
which requires that all hotels be fumi-
gated once every three months, or
oftener IL necessary.
While the hotel men, as well as DR..
Albright, are OF the belief that this re-
quirement will work hardship on the
better class OF hotels, it, along with all
others sections of the new law, will be
enforced to the letter unless Attorney
General Gates Of Tennessee tenders an
opinion that Drs Brown and Albright
can make ruling on the section 9TH
erwise.
The travelling men who have been
lighting for such q measure as the
sanitary hotel law for the past several
years may have made a mistake in
putting this requirement in. Seeing
the terrible need of reform and also
seeing chance to realize on their
hopes for better conditions. they may
have let their zeal run away with them,
but 1t would be hard to make major
ity of them believe it.

TURN REBUFFS

ELERs.

A paper on Turning Rebuffs Into
Orders by L. d. Mahon. published or
iginaaly in Judicious Advertising, is
given below by request for the benefit
of the fiickertail commercial travellers
so that they may have an opportunity
to get good idea for future business
Of this nature:
Did you ever try to sell a man who
was so alright that he wheezed when
he breathed as though reluctant to
give back the breath he had taken so
freely the moment before?
Burrows was that kind.
AS d buyer Burrows was RETROSPECT
tive. He had been q pioneer, but the
years had dimmed his perspective.
The only part of the horizon that he
saw clearly was that portion which lay
directly behind his back. The chief
factors which influenced his mind
were the precepts, presidents and ira
ditions OF the past.
The meanest thing, however, about
Burrows was the almost unapproach-
able and clustered position In which
he secluded himself,
Such a buyer was Burrows. He
represents, Of course. an unusual and
extreme type, entirely paradoxical to
the methods of modern business, yet
he does exist and when you meet him

when he saw the light Of reason sheA
its gentle ray on Burrows brain he

And proving that hiB answer was

dread disease stay lii 1t over night.
And there are other diseases just as
dangerous. All In all, possibly several
different guests with contagious or In
fectious ailments will put up at least
one night In a majority OF the aver
age hotels rooms
When the active members Of the
Tennessee Travellers forsook their
business, and, in some cases, even
1eopardized their positions by going to
the state capitol and lighting for days
for this legislation, they did so with
the idea In view that the law would
be enforced should II be passed. II
is hardly probable that Attorney Cen
eraI Gates will render any other opin-
ion than that Il is law and must be
obeyed IL any Of the law is to be obey
ed
The claim Of the larger hotels that
1t will work q hardship upon them be-
cause they keep their Fostelries always
In good condition, and fumigating their
premises every three months would be
an unnecessary expense, may be true.
While there are perhaps score or
more Of these leading hotels that
would really be imposed upon there
are hundreds Of hash houses over the
state that never clean a carpet until
1t gets stiff and starts to break in
two or change towels until they are
strong enough to walk. These are the
boys the travellers Of Tennessee are
after, and these win be "got," even II
1t does make small few suffer some
Inconvenience.
But the good news is that the law IL
to be enforced, and the boys are biding
their time until the date rolls around
when they may demand instead OF
request better conditions in their tenn
porary homes on the road.

His inclination Is to do away with
much of the tedious ceremonials of

which goes in donations. After the

hundreds of homes were burned by
his soldiers, he gave from his private
