more important action has been taken
by the National Womens Christian
Temperance Union, in session here,

wonderful campaign in Maine. by
which prohibition was saved in that

for nationwide prohibition, in which
she called upon all religious and phil

SAW ADVERTISING IN STORY
Banker Used to Advantage Situation
Which Many Might Have
Overlooked.

In one of the large eastern cities not
long ago occurred a burglary that had
more than the usual amount of human
interest in it, So much SO, in fact,
that although the total loot was small
only about s., 000-still the story got
a first page position in all the dailies
and excited a lot of comment. Con-
densed into a few words, the story was
this: An Italian and his wife had been
in America but few years, yet they
had managed to get into the fruit bust
ness on a small but comparatively
profitable scale With the idea of
some day owning a home they had
been extremely frugal and laid by
large part of their profits. With dis
trust of banks they had boarded these
savings in a little trunk which was
kept underneath the bed in their room
over the shop In some way the
secret leaked out and burglars carried
off the money, trunk and all.
A banker read the stories and saw
at once that there was real life
incident that would make strong ad-
vertising copy for his savings depart
ment Accordingly, lie got out a lot
of circulars, which led off with re-
print Of the newspaper story and
wound up with the moral that the only
way to safeguard your earnings was
to put them in q strong, reliable bank
These circulars followed close on the
trail of the newspaper account itself
and the results were wonderful That
stolen trunk was by no means the
only example of unwisely stored hoard
ing in the vicinity, and scores of peo-
pie whose sense of caution had been
aroused by the clever combination of
newspaper story and advertising copy
began to take the sugar bowls from
the pantry shelves and the wallets
| from the excavations in the back yard
and take their contents to the ad-

BAGPIPE CRAZE IN ENGLAND

London.-There is a craze to learn
to play the inspiring if not always
tunefuI bagpipes, and Americans are
among the most eager to master Scot
lands national musical instrument.
The prince of Wales set the fashion.
He learned the bagpipes at Oxford and
now delights his Scottish friends by
skirling 1.-The Flowers Of the Forest"
and 1.-The Land of the Leaf in way
to touch their heartstrings. Ever
since Andrew Carnegie has been laird
of Skibo his pipers have awakened
him of a morning and played at his
board when he dined.

the bagpipes.

New silk Process,

A new process of making an arti-
fetal silk, especially adapted for the
purposes of embroidery and similar
uses, has been recently shown in
New York, where it has excited a
great deal of interest. The details of
the process are not diYulged, al
though the entire operation has been
performed under the inspection of
persons invited to witness it. One OBJ
server described the operation as fol
lows:
"a quantity of raw cotton is wash
ed and placed in a solution resem-
bling bluing. After being so treated
it is taken out in a mass not unlike
mucilage. This mass was then forced
through a glass tube having apertures
into another solution, and rose to the
top in threads. These threads were
then reeled and washed, in order to
remove the blue coloration. After
drying the threads were spun into
delicate strands which were difficult
to detect from real silk
