WHEN IS A MAN DRUNK?

Judicial authority in Topeka has
ruled that a man is drunk If a police
man can detect the odor Of liquor on
his breath. II, in addition, he talks
and laughs boisterously he is drunk
and disorderly and guilty Of a breach
Of the peace. II this standard were ap-
piled to the city Of New York 1t is es-
timated that 100000 people would be
arrested as drunk and disorderly
every day. In Chicago the number
would be 400, 900; In Philadelphia, 300,.
900. The claim of the liQuorites that
Topeka has a high percentage Of
drunkenness will not hold water-or
any other kind OF liquid.
In this connection 1t may be noted
that Topeka, with a population Of A.
102, has 20 policemen. The average
for 20 American saloon-infested cities
with a population Of $4,000 to $4,000
Is 46 policemen.

PROPER CREDIT TO NOBODY
Simple Logic Easily Proves That He

With Justice.

The time Is now arrived when No
body should come to his own. Hitherto
Nobody has not been treated with JUS
tice. AS n OF the most important
persons in America, Nobody should
have statues erected in all Of our
principal cities, Let US. therefore,
consider the claims Of Nobody. In the
first place, Nobody knows. Take, for
example, the currency bill. the tariff
schedules, the status Of philosophy,
or the art Of the futurist, Nobody
knows about all Of these things, when
all the rest are In entire ignorance.
Furthermore, II you want to know the
actual truth about these important
questions, and many more. Nobody is
the only N who can tell you. Every
body takes some interest in baseball.
movies, vaudeville, bridge and high
balls; but when 1t m to all the
things which are known as vital, such
as government, slums, etc, who cares?
Why, Nobody cares. Nobody Is, there
fore, our best citizen. Hurrah for
Nobody!-Life.

ES PHILADELPHIA ORIGINALITY
E4 PAST AND PRESENT

It is strange is it not that Philadelphia should
be backward in the employment Of modern adver-
tsing? For Philadelphia in times past showed great
originality in this respect and has been the scene OF
many great advertising achievements.
The first great national advertising campaign
was originated and carried to success by Phila-
dephia banker Jay Cooke sold 81 240, 100000 of war
bonds for Lincoln by advertising.
Modern department store advertising has been
carried to it's high development result of the
pioneering work of a Philadelphia merchant-John
Wanamaker His first days sales April 8, 1861,
amounted to $2467. Of this 81 cents retained
to make change on the next day, and the $24 was
put back into advertising.
Philadelphia is the home of the largest periodical
publishing house in the world house whose success
has been built upon advertising. The very first
issue of The Ladies' Home Journal was advertised
at an expense of $500. Today The Curtis Publish
ing Company invests between 100000 and $30OOOO
year in advertising
The prosperity of it's three great publications is
due to the tremendous power which they exert upon
millions of consuners-a power which thousands
of manufacturers employ by purchasing advertising
space in their columns.
Too few manufacturers in Philadelphia have
learned the lessons taught in their city by
history and preSentday example
But history and example should never be fol-
lowed blindly. The essential point is originality in
adapting established methods to individual needs.
Some one has said that originality is of two
kinds-origna1ity of thought and originality of
expression. Applied to industry, this might be
paraphrased as originality of manufacture and
originality of distribution.
For decades Philadelphia led in industry because

she possessed originality in manufacture. Her great
prestige built upon the ability to make machines
devise processes and organize production. Most
of her great pioneers found thus the outlet tor
their originality because that what the times
demanded
Today the times demand originality of distri-
button. Those same pioneers, they living and
working today would be devoting their energies to
that kind Of originality. For they men quick
to feel the necessities of the But the newer
generation in Philadelphia has clung to the tradition
of originality in manufacture and has not sensed the
needs for originality in distribution.
Where Philadelphia amanufacturersha have grasped
the weapons, it has sometimes been only in the
spirit of itator rather than in that of innovator
For example, a certain industry here saw that
its competitors elsewhere using advertising
with large units of space The Philadelphia manu-
facturer followed suit Some time later the original
advertiser reduced his advertising to small units.
Perhaps his purpose was to put his competitors
to test and see they had the courage of their
vctions. At least that the effect. The Phila-
delphia firm, instead of thinking the problem out
for ITSELF at took this as indication of the
failure of largespace advertising and also reduced
Then when competition thoroughly shaken
down." the original advertiser came back again with
even larger space than before, and became
the dominating factor in the field
If Philadelphia manufacturers are to employ
modern methods, they must do so in the thorough
conviction that these methods effective and not
simply because their opponents have been using
them.
This is true originalty-the kind which made
Philadelphia great in manufacture
And it is secret of success in advertising.
