Great Power of Suggestion.

Ii is very probable now that large
proportion Of merchandise sold Is
through suggestion. If people bought
only the bare necessaries of life. only
what they actually need, there would
be but few business houses and civil
cation would halt
The power of suggestion is what
builds up great business houses and
keeps the world on its progressive
march.
Advertising is one Of the mot power
ful and at the same time easiest meth
DDS OF suggestion But there are many
others very much akin To the popular
conception OF advertising.
Therefore it behooves the merchant
who would be successful and to be
numbered with the progressive OF his
kind to study well the theory and prac-
tice of suggestion. Its ramihcatiOnS
are many and varied.

SPLIT IN DELAWARE c. o. p.
Battle at Primaries Threatens to De-
stroy Party Machinery

Destruction is threatening the Re-
publican organization Of Delaware
solely because Of a disagreement be-
tween the party leaders as to whether
Governor Miller or State Chairman
Mitchell should be sent as the delegate
from Wilmington to the Republican
National Convention in June. The
rank and file are very much divided
and the question will be decided at
the party primaries a week from next
Saturday. In six wards in the city
there are hot contests for State con-
vention delegates and il appears to be
a stand of from present indications.
One faction wants to honor the Gov
ernor and the other faction the State
chairman. One side claims that, as
the State has been sending its Cover
nor TO the national convention every
time il has been in the Republican
column. It should adhere to the Gus
tom. while the other side holds that
II has been customary to send the
State chairman. If the primaries
should show a close result il is not at
all unlikely that the lower counties
will take a hand in the matter and
cause il TO be settled on the floor OF
the convention.
At all events the Republican pri-
maries promise to be exceptionally
lively and the feeling that is growing
IN between the Miller and the Mitch
ell factions threatens to completely
cverturn the organization which has
been built up and which has givef
the party Statewide control for sew
eral years.

principals or aiding and abetting the

committed to the Kent county Jail at

without bail TO await the result of
Joseph's injuries. Hall was released
on his own recognizance. to appear
before the magistrate Monday when
preliminary hearing was given.
Joseph is a son of former Magistrate
Joseph. Of Milford, and was himself
appointed TO succeed his father at
Milford some years ago. but because
of opposition that developed in the
State Senate at that time, his appoint
ment was not confirmed While all
the facts in the case have not as yet
been disclosed, it is alleged that Belts
was the man who actually committed
the assault. The citizens Of Freder-
lea are much stirred up over the affair,
and some sensational developments
are likely to be disclosed when the
facts are fully known.
