During the past week the Senator
has been in Clarksburg. attending the
Harrison county fair. There he re-
ceived a rousing reception all along
the line. and leading Republicans feel
that he will entirely upset the Nicely
forces in that section. II has been
conceded that Congressman Neely has
very strong following there. and
the news that there is a chance OF a
disruption is very acceptable.
Yesterday the streamers and large
pictures OF Senator White made their
appearance. and a number OF persons
were busily engaged during the day
placing them in conspicuous places.
Attorney Ben l.. Rosenbloom also
placed some very interesting cards on
the market yesterday. On the front

shown the relative strength OF the ar

The first time was when / was
walking downtown on rainy day and
passed the windows Of an electric
lighting concern. Everything was lit
up in there, and the whole place
seemed bright and CHEEKY. Now. when
ever the sky grows the least bit dark
and peoples spirits get darker at the
same time, light up my entire store.
The result is that it seems the one
sunny, CHEEKY spot In the street. and
people just naturally gravitate there.
THE second time came about In
this fashion One day as l got on the
car near my shop I noticed quite a
crowd gathered in front Of store
few doors away from mine. At first
thought 1t was an accident or some
particularly good window display, but
when l investigated I found that 1t
was just crowd of people taking ad-

'the industrious, enterprising trades
man in big city is almost bound to
succeed. Especially is this true If he
knows well how to advertise hie
wares. A curious instance Of business
sagacity comes from New Orleans. A
famous perfumery merchant in Q
street In the French quarter has in.
stalled an electric fan in a place where
he can send into the street the frag
rance Of his wares, and. when the
sweet odors that naturally fill the
store become somewhat depleted, an
.ompIoye presses the bulb Of per
fame atomizer behind the fan. 30 that
there may be no let-up In the tempta'

methods remind one, by contrast, OF

Mako Flrc. ehos Ring tho Bell.

The huntsman who misses the fr7t
shot usually loses the game. He has
had the opportunity and he has lost.
There's q parallel in advertising. Make
the first shot-the main heading, the
picture that gets first attention-hit
what you're aiming at II an article
is going to be bought for comfort,
mention the peculiar kind of comfort
and the article, in the head If possible.
Then elaborate. But don't expect q
reader with a want for your article to
read your sales talk II confronted by a
heading that gives no idea Of what
you are talking. Make the arst shot
ring true.

ADVERTISING NOT A GAMBLE
Expert Says There Are Still Too Many
People Who "Take Flyers" In
Publicity Game.

]. George Frederick in advertising
and Selling" says: There are too
many people today who still take fly.
ers' In advertising. They shut their
eyes, grit their teeth, dig into their
jeans and let fly.
This Is 30, not only Of the small
advertiser, who risks $500 on this fly.
er,' but also Of the large advertiser
who risks hundreds of thousands OF
dollars. There are actually advertis,
ers spending a great deal Of money
running into millions, who today in
some degree still insist and seriously
attempt to maintain that advertising
is necessarily sort Of flyer for any
concern.
Here Is the key to the whole situa.
tion-the conditions. The man who
takes little flyer and the man who
takes big flyer In advertising
whether they do 1t on gamble or
whether they delude themselves with
schemes Of averages. are both ignor.
Ing conditions. These conditions are
concrete, even though they may be
conditions of mind In consumers and
buyers.
THE thing to do - collect. chart
and anaiyze the conditions and spread
them out in front OF one and look
them squarely n the face; build the
sales and advertising plan according
TO them, md not according to any
theory or scheme o. picturesque
gambling instinct"

ADVERTISING MAN
MUST KNOW BUYERS
Han Behind Counter Should
Make the Best "Copy'
Writer.

One of the leading members of one
81 the largest and best.known adver'
afsing agencies In the country says
that there is no secret in successful
. advertising.
That such success results from the
combination Of hard work and expert
-ence-the necessary contact with the
buying public, which teaches the con-
.sumers' point Of view, and makes an
advertisement an investment instead
sof speculation.
Without this experience, the most
brilliant writer 10 hardly worth his
prove-bial salt when it comes to filing
h-sh-priced space in which every word
may cost dollar. While persuasive
form Of address Is as important in an

The plainest, most hofnely copy"
In some cases holds the records
against cute" or pretty ads, and often
so-called clever productions may Gre
ate much comment without resulting
in any startling inroads In the dealers
stock.
But the man who has stood behind
the counter long enough to learn what
line Of approach most often converts
"a difficult customer, who has noted the
various idiosyncrasies that character
aze the buying public, and can visual.
ice these experiences as he prepares
his copy arguments, Is the man who ~
going to move goods through adver-
dsements.
Advertisements 30 written repre-

t4o7 One-Pieoe Skirt with Yoha
81 to ~ waist

No skirt could be easier to make
than this one and none prettier to
wear with one of the long basques or
one of the deep girdles that make
such features Of autumn and winter
styles. The skirt is perfectly straight
below the yoke and gathered at the
upper edge; therefore. it can be used
for bordered materials and for
hounctngs as we'll as for plain or
striped goods. Handsome materials
are always at their best when made
on simple lines. The season shows q
wonderful variety Of fabrics and any
thing that is soft enough to be gath
cred can be treated in this way. The
possibilities Of the skirt in combina-
tion with a basque or fancy bodice
finished with deep Rirdle are num-
oerless. For dancing gown, deep
lace nounce over q skirt Of charmeuse
would be beautiful or charmeuse satin
would be pretty with a basque or Cir
die Of velvet and there are various
other suggestions that might be made.
For the medium size. the skirt will
require 3 1.2 yards Of material 27.
1-2 yards .36 or A. inches wide, The
width OF the skirt at the lower. edge
Is yard and 81 SincheA. s
