ADVERTISING
s.. ;ss's Of sa.1 Tss Iss s ." sH.ssS. No
story is told Of prisoner who called the Judge
fool The judge fined him $40. He paid the fine
but asked: DO you fine people for thinking your
Hcnor7" The judge answered in the negative.
WELL" he said, Il think you're a fool STILL"
II should print my personal opinion Of some big
advertisers like not I'd get fined but it is perfectly
safe to think.
If a traveller came to you and talked Of the stuff
which his house prints advertising you would put
k down at once as an idiot.
The talk is unnatural; sounding brass and
tnkling cymbal; unreal insincere, dead The reader
feels that It isn't the advertiser who is talking; that
theze really isn't anybody talking that the words are
just printing.
Good advertising is good talk the frank, honest
kind that convinces.
An advertisement Of one hundred words should
make the reader think five thousand words; and
herein is the whole secret of good copy It isn't what
you say that counts but the chain Of thought which
your advertising creates.
The more you fuss over your advertising copy the
poorer the result Il isn't job to stutter about or to
apologize for or to burn midnight oil over If YOU
want to make advertising hit all you need TO do
is to talk to the reader Of the newspaper as you talk
across the counter to customer

Advertising is a wildcat up a tree. Once you
have shaken him off the problem Of letting 60 is
quite as difficult as the problem Of howlding on"

reasonable assurance regarding the future.

New York. Feb. 22.-Supreme Court
Justice Gerard has sustained the writ
Of habeas corpus in the case of Folke
r. Brandt and ordered new trial for
Brandt on the ground that Judge Ros-
alsky erred in accepting Brandts plea
of guilty Of burglary in the first de-
gree when the mans statement to the
court showed that he did not intend TO
plead guilty to that crime.
Out Of courtesy to Governor Dix
Justice Gerard waited until he learned
that Attorney General Carmody's ar

arnor and that there would be delay
whichever way the governor decided

said, indisputably knocks out the con

now as if there had never been any

A.. who returned from the canal zone
on the Prinz August Wilhelm after an
exhaustive animation of the plans
and locations OF the proposed fortitica-
tons. The two officers are to submit Il
report to the secretary Of war.
Both are enthusiastic over the prog
ress of the work on the canal. jor
Kenley bases his prophesy that a YES
sci will be able to proceed from ocean
to ocean through the canal before the
end Of next year on observation OF the
conditions and on reports from the en-
gineers in charge.
The tortification plans have been
completed. There will be three forts
on the Pacific side and one on the At
lantic side, with fortifcations at strate-
gical points along the line of the canal.
These Notifications will be equipped
with guns fitted to shoot three miles

M0ToRBOAT RULES OUT.
Changes Are Made In Style Of Life
Preservers to Be Used.

Washington. Feb. 22.-The motorboa'
regulations for the coming season have
been issued by Acting Secretary Ben.
jamin s. Gable OF the department Of
commerce and labor through Commits
sioner Chamberlain OF the bureau of
navigation.
The rules for life preservers are
slightly changed. Where passengers
are taken for hire life preservers
stamped by the steamboat inspector
must be carried.
In other cases life preservers Of
buoyant cushions capable of sustaniu'
afloat for twenty-four hours a down
ward pull Of twenty pOpnds will b.
accepted. No life preServers or cush
ions filed with granulated cork or 9th
er loose granulated material and no
pneumatic life preservers or cushions
are approved.
The department records indicate tina,
there are about 10000 motorboats il
the United States. Last season 1857
violations Of the mOtorboat law were
reported by collectors of customs. Mo
torboat clubs. the motorboat periodical
and the daily press have aided greatly
in enforcing the law the past two sea
sons, and the requirement that every
motorboat shall carry two copies OF
the pilot rules has created a genera
school in the elements of navigation
attended by doubtless as many as 800
coo pupils.

in notifying the state department at
Washington that the visit to Colombia
of Secretary Knox would be inoppor-

claim in connection with Panama had

Disappointed Litigant Makes
Grave Charge.
CASE TO SUPREME COURT.
Michael MeManus, Formerly a Phila

Will Ask impeachment.

Philadelphia, Feb. 22.-Grave charges
are made here against Chancellor Nah
Ion Pitney Of New Jersey, who has
been nominated by President Taft to
the United States supreme court.
As the accuser is a disappointed liti-
giant, the charges should be taken with
distinct reservation Of judgment. The
litigant, Michael McManus, was for
merly prominent contractor of Phila-
delphia. being now retired.
Mr.. McManus charges that ChanCel-
lor Pitney in 1910 signed the name of
dead man. the late Vice Chancellor
Grey, to a revocation of an order issued
by Grey himself staying foreclosure on
certain properties owned by McManus.
He also charges that the Chancellor
entered his revocation as part of the
records of 1904
Mr.. McManus declares notice of the
Grey decision was withheld from him
and his attorneys and that therefore it
was unjust of Chancellor Pitney to
rule against him because of his failure
to take advantage of the Grey ruling
within the prescribed thirty days.
As the case will 90 to the United
States supreme court. Mr.. McManus
says he does not want it to come be

Cardinal Merry del Val. the papal sec

The trouble arose over an alteration

finally got into a heated discussion with
the prince. The count finally insulted
the prince, who then slapped his face.
The arrangements for the duel have
been suspended owing to the papal
prohibition. but Count Pecci insists on
fighting to the last. He claims that his

less he is allowed TO fight he will re-
