vs. Locustville Woolen Company, pass ed.
 The case of the Capitol Lumber company of Hartford. Conn.,, against Charles P. Ecclestone og Hopkinton,
 R. l.. was called for trial and the em- paneling of the jury followed, with | these names picked from the revolving
 barrel on the clerks desk: Daniel W. Gardner of North Kingstown, Charles H. Stanton of Westerly, Eddie P. En- l his of Westerly, Joshua s. Clark of South Kingstown, Abram Lefbovitz of Westerly, Walter H. Perry of South Kngstown. William s. Allen of North Kingstown, Joseph J. Taylor of Hop l kinton George B. B. Jones of Rich mond, William W. Austin of Exeter, M. Herbert Kenyon of Hopkinton, Robert l.. Coon of Hopkinton. Judge Edward M. Burke appeared as counsel for the Capitol Lumber com
 pany and Harry B. Agard for Charles P. Ecclestone.
 In response to queries by Judge
 Burke Mir. Kenyon of Hopkinton re-
 piled that MT. Ecclestone was good customer, did considerable business with him, that MT. Ecclestone paid his bills promptly and at the present time did not owe him cent. When Judge Burke asked MT. Kenyon if by reason of the business friendship that existed between him and MT. Ecclestone, he could sit as a juror and render inn partial verdict, Judge Barrows inter posed and stated that the line of ques- | tioning was hardly fair to MT. Ken- yon. Judge BarrowS said he would
 not excuse MT. Kenyon as unf1tted to serve. but if Judge Burke wanted to challenge MT. Kenyon that was his I privilege.
 Judge Burke challenged Messrs. Kenyon. Coon and Taylor. all of Hop l kInt0n the of Harness Mc- | Yey of Charlestown, John Merry of Westerly and Edward V. Dewtumble l of ESxeter. were drawn. Judge Burke
 made no objection and MT. Agard said
 fendant. The court~appointed Eddie
 P. Ennis of Westerly foreman of the
 jury.
 As no other jury case was to be | tried at the present session, all jurors
 not on the panel were permanently l excused and the trial of the Capitol Lumber company against Charles P. l Ecclestone was commenced.
 This is an action in book account | in which plaintiff seeks to recover

 business with the plaintiff to the | is a balance due of $636.4o.
 The real bone of contention Is over
 a shipment of s72,000 worth of red dar shingles, which plaintiff claims were sold to defendant for S3.7O a
 thousand and for which payment has been refused. MT Ecclestone claims that these shingles were accepted with the plain understanding that if he could not dispose of them that the
 Capitol Lumber company would and at TO expense to him. He had notified the company that the shingles were at their disposal. that hc had been iWouid not pay for them. The value

In New England, by using the newspapers mentioned on this the advertiser talk them in the plain direct, commonsense way that New Englanders them selves talk. New Englanders not accustomed to fris froth or buncombe. They want facts. They the truth. They want to understand the who wants to sell them something. They him to give them details that will convince them of his integrity as well as that of the article he offers for sale. C. In general medium it is impossible to give the color and touch advertisement that will especially appeal New Englanders.
 The newspapers the only media that enlist their steady interest and attention because they touch on the things that part of their daily life.
 And if advertisements written for them-the writer keeping in mind the touch that editors and re- porters give to editorials and news-they will read them and respond to them.
 Anything appearing in their local paper is regarded by the New Englanders as belonging to them. They forthwith give it their attention. It makes direct personal appeal to them. It will make them customers almost immediately, And then if it makes good per- manent sales maintained.
 The New England section marvellous opportunities to general advertisers.
 Why select the advertising route that will reach New Englanders in the most intimate way-through their newspapers?
 Just look the that the newspapers this page charge. 1"
 Think of the circulation you get.
 Think of the homes into which your message will be carried with confidence in it already secured because in the home paper.
 Then think of the kind of homes!
 Then think of the trivial per to get into these homes.
 It figures out so that the cost in any community-by employing newspapers-is only about cent per in habitant per annum! FROM THE EDITOR AND PUBLISHER AND

 While the inhabitants of this section realize that they about 115 of the total nhabtarss of America nevertheless they think that because the other l415 do live in New England they are g." competent judges where or how to live.
 The same number of people in New Yee= City and vicinity feel that those who live in New England can quite appreciate what it to live n the Garden Spot of America.
 So it goes.

 What helps or harms any considerable number of .he people is regarded helpful harmulto all c a peo pie.

 The Advertiser making broad, general. .aational appeal for business does not get close to the people if he advertised in sections with understanding of the habits and thoughts of the people in each section
 In other words the shrewd advertiser addresses him. self the people of section in their language and according their viewpoint.
 It is intelligent salesmanship-thats all.
 Method of approach in advertising is che the method employed by the salesman who calls different people to sell his goods If all people were approached in like menner, sales would not be made in great numbers.
 The good salesman studies and understands the va- riots types of mankind and wonanknd and uses his power effect sales.
