BOLD ADVERTISING.


America has the reputation Of hav-
ing forgotten more about advertising
methods than Europe has ever known.
But 1t ia doubtful whether the Ameri-
can business man ever devised more
ingenious method than that adopted
recently by Dresden tailor.
He addressed his circulars. describ-
Ing the excellence of his military tai
loring to officers Of the reserve in imf-
tation Official envelopes with the print
ed inscription, ''For Mobilization"
The distributors were dressed in mill
tary uniforms and commenced opera
tons simultaneously in several Ger
man towns.
Wives Of absent reservists were ter
rified by the appearance OF the fateful
envelope at time when mobilization
and European war were in the air.
But the advertiser had scored bis
point by impressing his name upon his
victim quite indelibly. which IL. we are
told. the essential end Of advertising.
The idea is unique for absolute bold
ness and callousness.-New York Sun.

The electroplating process by which
glassware is decorated with network

Germany to the plating of porcelain

treated are said to wear better than
either simple porcelain or solid silver.
being less fragile than porcelain and
less subject to indentation and de-
formation than silver. The product in
called electroporcelain and is cheaper
than plated silverware. The plating
is usually of silver. but sometimes Of
nickel. In some cases instead of GOV.
ering the entire vessel the plating ia
confined to the handles. knobs and
edges, and cooking pots are usually
left uncovered within. because porce-
lain can more easily be kept clean

myself from being hit BY It."
The witness was sharply questioned
upon the point whether the stone that
broke the window would have struck
him had he not lodged 1t. He was
then dismissed. Eventually the deci,

''Inasmuch ~ If the witness had not

Msvins Pictures In Japan.

The Japanese take the moving pic
ture with the seriousness bef1tting the
national character. They enjoy 1t thor
oughly. but they like 1t best when it
makes them sad. The favorite theme
II the allegorical play that represents
the warrior lighting for Righteousness.
Next in popularity comes the pathetic
picture. The strictly educational film
II also popular. and there Is always
applause for good scenery. But the
love story II never represented In the
Jnpanese moving picture. It would be
mn outrage to modesty and violation
Of decency and therefore intoIerabls.
Pictures derogatory to the dignity Of
officials and Of policemen are forbid

revolutionary ideas in the minds of the
