BROKEN HEARTs-TEN DOLLARS.

BEoksN HEARTS-TEN DOLLARS.
Chicago has found one of the most
sensible and at the same time one oi
the most truthful women OF the pres
ent century. In tae case OF llttle
Polish woman in a breach OF promise
suit against her false lover. she at-
tempted to figure out her actal cash
loss and the actual damages due her.
After figuring up the trosseau at
one hundred and seyenty-iive dollars
the wedding supper which had been
eaten although no bridegroom had
appeared at the actual cost OF one
hundred dollars and placing charge
OF five dollars per night for ninety
two nights of courting. she assessed
the damage done her heart at ten del
lars. She said that she was only
thirty years of age and in all prooa-
bility ten dollars would pay the repair
hill on that important organ and put
it in good orking order against the
coming of another lover At any rate
she had the wedding garments, she
and her friends had eaten the wed

evenings OF her valuable time, and II
mis- honor would give her five dollars

burse her the dollar fifty which she
had paid for the marriage license, and
when was a dead loss. she thought
that ten American dollars would pay
the black smiths bill for welding and
otherwise repairing the love speed

If any business man, in New Year
resolutions, has declared for less ad-

Existing conditions sometimes render
imperative a reduction Of expenses,
but the wise individual will do much

Gliding upon making cut in the ad-
vertising expense. The average busi-
ness man expects to have more trade
in 1912 than came to him the preced-

Of the newspaper, disappointment and
regret is surely in store for him. In

housework by giving US prepared

GUARANTEE OF GOOD FAITH
Average Merchant Too Shrewd to
Make Misstatements, In Cold Type
Of Advertising Columns.

Advertising is a guarantee Of good
faith.
Retail trade attracts substantial
class of men who prefer to tell the
truth for its own sake, and would not
cheat their neighbors If they could.
OF course motives of self interest
also warn them to take pains to make
advertising accurate.
Misstatements produce disgruntled
customers who can make lot Of
trouble for store which depends for
success very largely on its own towns
people.
If men Of less responsible character
sometimes go into retail trade, usual
ly they are too shrewd to make mis-.
statepents IN the cold publicity Of ad.
vertising type.
The public thus learns from expert
ence that local store advertising Is
trustworthy.
AS 1t deals with such subjects OF
surpassing interest as cost Of living
and the fashions Of the day. every
line Of 1t Is read with the most dis
eliminating attention.
People like to read and think about
shopping before Visiting store.
A great many purchases are prac-
ttcally made from the newspaper be-
fore the buyer leaves home.
Furthermore, liberal advertising
tells the public that q merchant is
making good.
Lack of it Is interpreted as lack OF
confidence tn ones business.
The firm that does not advertise is
ciassed with the firm that seeks an
obscure location in some remote side
street, as too small to serve the pub
lie efficiently.
When a firm adveruses freely, 1t
gives the idea that It has large
trade to pay the expenses Of It's pub
Lefty.
A big breezy impression Of achieve
prent is conveyed.
Nothing succeeds hike success.
Human nature is such, that to sue
ceed, one must often give the impress
sion that he already has succeeded.
The public is> slow to deal with
propositions that do not suggest sue
cessful efficiency.
The man who has faith enough to
discount the future little, to put his
earnings into his business. and by
liberal advertising give the Impression
ofthaytng asbig trade already, is sure
tes Set dtssif only his goods are ht.--
