positively to bristle with annoyance.

HELPS WHEN PLANTING SEEDS
Amateur Gardener Gives = Few Words
Of Advice. Seemingly Both Sea
sonable and Sensible.

For a long time I chung to the old
way OF marking the places where !
sowed In my garden the seed OF am
nual flowers; that Is to say, I slipped
the little envelopes over the stickg
and placed these in the beds. Winds
often carried the papers away, or rain
washed out the printed name, and ]
was no better on than I should have
been If hs.9 trusted to my memory
alone. Last year, however, I really
did improve on this old plan by plac-
ing 3 small fewer pot over each en-
velope and stick and it proved to be
a very satisfactory method.
A next door neighbor who was
planting some seeds the other day
had. it seemed 10 me. still better
plan. She wrote the name Of the
flower or vegetable on a slip Of paper
and placed it ID small bottle. put in
the cork and stuck the bottle half
way into the soil BY the way, when
you are sowing very fine seeds, like
those Of popples or petunias, they
may be distributed more evenly BY
putting them in salt shaker first
mixing them with iitie ssnd.-p p1iia.

CHINESE BECOMING MODERN
Electricity Being Used for Advertising
Purposes as Well as For Manufac-
turing by OrIentaIs.

Electric advertising is being ex
tensiyely adopted by the native
Chinese merchants In Shanghai, and
now, says a report of the Shanghai In
ternational News, the large stores In
Marking road vie with one another in
the splendor Of their shop fronts 1t
has always been the custom among
the Chinese to drape the store on
opening day in red hangings of silk
covered with pictures of fairies and
genii and inscriptions Of good omen.
With the coming of evening lanterns
would be suspended among the hang
ings and illuminated by candles. This
genii and changed now. First the Jap
anese brought in electric advertise
ments for their patent medicines, and
now the Chinese merchant sprinkles
a galaxy of electric lights all through
the hangings that cover the front of
his newly opened store.
At one large store in Marking road.
the Shanghai settlements principal
Chinese business street, where the
municipal authorities had forced the
property owners when rebuilding to
move their premises back, so as to
allow for sidewalk space, fearing that
they should be cast In the shade by
competitors next dootr who had not
rebuilt and were therefore not moved
back from the curb, they leased the
front sidewalk out as far as their old
frontage from the municipal council
and erected thereon steel staging
completely covering the front of their
store. Upon this staging they have
arranged magnificent electrical dis
lay which they change periodically.
They had no sooner got the show well
started than another firm farther up
the street erected for itself similar
staging, and it Is now a competition
to see which will Guido the other In
the magnificense of its display. The
Chinese cotton mills are beginning to
use electricity for power In the mills.
It all goes to prove that they are
quickly adopting conveniences FUR
nished by electricity, although such
things usually begin as fads.

RULES FOR statesmen

Here are some rules that will help
you succeed as salesman:
Take as much interest In your work
as If you were the proprietor.
Acquire a thorough knowledge OF
the goods you are selling
Cultivate q pleasing personality.
Pleased customers mean increased
sales, and increased sales mean sue
cessful statesmen.
Don't be content to simply I'll or
ders. Any one can be an order talter.
but it requires salesmanship to sell
goods
Constantly study your stock. More
sales are lost through lack Of knowl-
edge concerning the goods than from
any other cause.
Experience is the best teacher re-
tail salesman can have, and the same
is true OF any business.
The salesman who has brains. per-
severance and initiative Is certain to
succeed.
Learn to judge human nature. That
is the application Of practical psychol-
ogy to business
