Rird's Mast In Mail Box,

Probably a birds nest In a rural
mail box is a rare thing, IL 1t has ever
happened before, but out in Oswe-
gatchie a small bird has taken posses
sion of a mail box and has already
built her nest and laid three eggs and
it looks as though she would complete
her work of Matching and rearing her
young.
The particular box picked out by
the bird is one that is in use daily and
the mail carried never misses stop
at this box. Mrs. Bird seems to enjoy
the idea to have the mail carrier lift
the cover OF the box and deposit the
mail and will sit on her nest as uncon-
cerned as can be. The mail box has
been fixed so that 1t will not close en-
tirely so that the bird may complete
the task of rearing her young. 1t Is
not known what kind of bird this Is,
but 1t is thought that 1t is phebe,
being brown of color and about the
size of a sparrow and laying sky-blue
eggs.-Watertown Correspondent Nav

An ADVERTISING Story.

At a recent gathering of advertising
men in New York this story was told:
A man entered a store one bitter cold
day and bought WOODEN muffier.
When he opened the muffier he found
inside it the photograph of beauti
fui girl. together with a note saying:
IF you are single, please write to
me-"
A name and address followed, and
the man smiled. He was single. and
he put the photograph on his sitting
room mantel. There, every evening,
looking up from his book. he beheld
il. It was very beautiful and in a
week he had fallen head over heels
in love. So he wrote to the girl.
Another week passed. week of
anxious nerve-racking suspense. Then
the lovesick man received this crush
ing letter: Sir: The Mary Smith
to whom you wrote was my grand
mother. She died nine years ago,
aged eighty-six. Yours truly, -"
Our heart broken bachelor. on look
ing into this strange matter. found
that he had foolishly bought the muf
fer from a dealer who didn't adver
tise.

INDUCES PEOPLE TO BUY
What 5arnum Meant, According to
Merchant, When He Said People
Liked to Be Swindied

The American people like to be
swindled,'" quoted a we'll known mer-
chant the other day. Il believe it was
old P T. Barnum who said something
like that, although l guess those are
not the exact words of the noted
Snowman.
The idea is exemplified, however,
in our everyday life as is evidenced
by the modern world of advertising.
l want to draw a fine line distinc-
ton however, and | believe that Mr..
Barnum really meant the same thing.
| don't mean that the people are
swindled through advertising, but that
they are induced by means of adver
Using to buy many things which
otherwise they never would have
thought Of
In the same way | believe that
Mr. Barnum did not mean that he
swindled people in his show business;
he thought he gave them value re-
ceived and | think he did, but when
he said that he meant that if it wasn't
for the way he advertised not half
the people would come to see his
show that did. And it is almost the
same way with modern business
houses Did you ever stop to consider
that a really successful house has
something going on all the time?
They have a June sale and July
sale and a white sale and black sale
and summer sale and winter sale
and every other kind of sale for every
day of every week OF the entire
year.
And then through the newspapers
they tell the public Of these sales and
the public reads and comes and buys.
And by that means the stores grow
and prosper, the newspapers grow and
prosper, the public lives better and
higher plane, for after all this adver-
Using in a sort of public educational
system. People may buy more than
they would otherwise, but they reap
ample benefits"

Food for the Shipwrec.ied.

Caches or depots for food and
clothing have recently been estab-
lished by the various governments on
most Of the dangerous islands under
their dominion. And on many of the
others there are sign posts and in
structions as to how to get to the
nearest island where there is such
depot. They are kept in huts buit
expressly for the purpose or in nat
ural caves in the cliffs, where all the
provisions will remain dry and keep
for long time. AS an example, down
in the Indian ocean are the islands
Of Amsterdam, st. Paul and Kergue-
len, all dangerous spots for vessels
in a storm. On each Of these the
French warship Eure has established
depots containing necessaries of ell
kinds for castaways, no matter what
their nationality may be. At Amster
dam island, In a large cavern on a
hillside, there are supplies of beef,
biscuits, unGerclothes, blankets and
some matches Enclosed in a hermetic
ally sealed metal box. There are
also in the same cave several cots,
a cooking pot and dry wood, left by
fishermen who occasionally visit
there. Cabbage and celery, fish and
Holsters abound on the island and In
the waters about 1t and castaways
could live there ir2chnitely. The de-
pot is clearly marked cut by a board
bearing the legend, France, Wires
Vetements pour marriages, Eure."

effect Of bronzelike immobility, his
blue black eyes held steel glints.
Well" the assistant manager re-
sumed, and paused.
The pompadoured waitress was
leaning between them, placing a tea
pot on the table.
Chocolate, sir" she giggled.
Stanton pushed back his chair, then
checked himself as sharply.
NO" he stated. and set the pot
away from before him.
The movement was not violent, but
there was in ii so much poorly re-
strained force that the china vessel
shattered upon striking the table and
all the fragrant brown liquid ran over
the white cloth. The girl exclaimed In
dismay. Mr. Green stared: Stanton
only dropped dollar-bill beside his
plate and rose TO go.
II am ready" he signified.
The Mercury camp was a scene of
animated preparation, twenty minutes
later, when FLOYD emerged from the
dense press of arriving spectators and
gained the Enclosure. The assistant
manager almost received him in his
arms. the rest of the force clustered
around. Gay. blithe, triumphant,
here, IL it wasn't for you" he de-
clared, once.
I'm awfully bright" Floyd agreed.
but he did not smile.
The machines were preparing to go
to their stations for the start, Stan
ton was IL his seat at the wheel. when
Floyd came over. and leaning against
the car. looked up into the drivers
face.

ADVERTISING MAXIMS.

Nothing endures like truth
especially in advertising.
Advertising isn't effective as
an occasional treat, but as part
of regular business diet.
1t must BIS splendid to be a
successful man; but much bet
ter still to be great one, even
in obscurity.
We have known persons who
could write a good advertise
ment, and then revise it until
there was nothing much left.
A great many more things
some of them pIeasanter ones
would come to them who wait,
if they wouldn't stand still to
wait.
One days work will mean
more knowledge hammered in,
to stay, than could be acquired
by the book-iearning process in
months.
What profiteth 1t man to
sell a lot of goods, and have his
customers come around the
next day and beat him up be-
cause they aren't satisfied?
There is, with some people,
such a thing as dishonest hon.
esty-present honesty practiced
for the building Of smooth,
broad pavement to future dis
honesty.
II your advertising does not
pay it should be made to pay.
Right methods should take the
place of wrong ones. To stop
advertising will not reimburse
past losses, and prevents the
possibility of future profits.
Persons who read advertising
because of Its smartness or hui
NOR are SOMETIMES likely to
think more of these qualities
than of the goods advertised.
Show any man how to in
crease his business-how to
make more money-and he's
your friend forever. i. 3.

quit the field because he missed

the other.

cected his mechaniCian. This Is the
country and you had your dinner at
aeon. But I'll come, anyhow"
At the table in the course of the
meal. small teapot was set before
Stanton.

The pompadOured waitress giggled

Stanton looked across into Floyd's

uttered the departing maid

Stanton briefly commanded.
Going to throw 1t at me, like you
did that Jug OF water on the first night

panion, obeytng.
Stanton's head lifted slightly, the re-
gard in which he enyeloped Floyd was
almost savage In It's leap of intense
add tenacious passion. Such glance
from man TO woman would have been

not a thing 10 be voiced. Floyd him
