WHY THE ADS DIDN'T PAY
Experience of Southern City In Try.
Ing to Attract People-FoIlow-
Up Work Necessary.

One southern city wisely contracted
for several hundred dollars worth of
advertising space in a leading Chi
rago publication during the period OF
the recent land show
Before the land show mad closed re-
turns came freely in the form of many
letters of inquiry from various parts
of the country. They looked good"
and doubtless represented a goodly
percentage of hopeful possibilities.
But no one knows and probably no
one win ever know, because the local
commercial body has no equipment for
handling the situation.
They have no printed matter to send
to the correspondents.
They have no plan for classifying,
grouping and referring the several
communications to any one who might
helpfuIly respond and deal with them.
They have no exact data to submit
in reply to specific inquiries.
They have not even some one in
the Office who is making even for
NAL or form" reply or at least ac-
acknowledgement
They have no plan. no policy. no
program, no machinery, no method. no
printed matter, no data, mo nothing!"

NO LIMIT TO SIZE OF STEAMSHIPS

The Olympic, of the White Star Line
which is $50 feet ling and 92 feet
broad with a tonnage of $4,000, is the
largest ship now afloat, but the new
vessel ardered by the Hamburg-Amer-
lean Line will be larger. This ship is
to be built by a Hamburg firm and
when finished will be $50 feet long and
80 broad with tonnage of $4,000 and
have accommodations for 5000 pas
sengers of all grades.
1t is not known what the speed Of
this giant ship will be, but, according
to Sir Edward White, the tired naval
constructor of Great Britain, the speed
limit has probably been reached in
the Mauretania and Lusitania, the
800-foot ships of the Cunard Line. be-
cause the cost of ipration increases
cause the cost cooperation increases
of speed.
But it appears that Sir Edward is
right in assuming that the limit Of
size has not yet beer reached so that
in due time we may see or read of the
1000-foot ship steaming into the har-
Dor of New York.

Mr.. Untermeyer, one of the leaders
of the New York bar, predicts that
this appallingdang erous concentra-
ton of financial power is likely to
continue until a few men absolutely
dominate the entire financial situation
unless some way can be found to halt
their march. To devise an effective
check and apply it he regards as the
greatest problem of the time, but, he
says. a persistent and powerful public
sentiment is absolutely necessary to
carry any remedial policy into effect
and the only method of stirring up
such a sentiment is discussion.

BROYLES BARS DANCES;

Atlanta, Ga, January 15.-While

as he is very fond of the child. Mr..
Geary called on the Health Teacher
in Atlanta and took home a treatment
of Quaker Herb Extract. At first it
was thought that a tonic would be
necessary to strengthen the child,
but he was sinking so rapidly that
the treatment was begun at once. In
a short time the child expelled a very
large tape worm and since has stead
lily improved in health. There are
hundreds of little children who are
restless in their sleep, who have sea-

great Quaker Herb Extract.

Is best to divide the "a hours

and at five, if this is convenient.
II not, it Is best to eat an apple
or a little unlocked cabbage or
pineapple or an orange before
leaving home latter taking a
quart of hot water or lemonade
on arisine). Eat the principal
meal at noon if an hour is al
lowed, but if the time is short,
eat light meal, which should
consist of sugar fruits largely
or rice with cream, or slightly
cooked eggs with toast, and the
meal containing bread or cereal
in other form in the evening,
beca use cereals especially
should be eaten slowly. One Of
the benefits of the two-meal
plan for a young person en-
pIoyed in business not common
ly urged, is that it avoids the
injury done by the hurry of
the morning and allows the
best energies to be given to the
mornings work. The sensation
of hunger that comes about the
middle of the forenoon soon
passes off as the habit of eat
ing only two regular meals is
acquired. The fact that one
may eat as much at two meals
as he formerly did at three is
no argument against the two
meal plan.
