MISTRESS ILL DOG WILL
NOT LEAVE HOSPITAL

While Judge. the little fox terrier,
stands guard at the bedside Of Miss
Frederika Moser townspeople OF Dobbs
Ferry. n. Y, pay their respect to the
memory Of her sister. Miss Margaret
The quaint little store conducted for
half century by the sisters is now
closed. 1t was from there week be-
fore the sisters went to the Dobbs
Ferry hospital. Judge followed. Miss
Margaret died few days later. The
shock of her death has left Miss
Frederika In a critical state. Judge
refuses to leave her.
The Moser store had become a land
mark in the town and its eccentric
proprietors had won place in the
hearts of all the residents Since the
store was opened more than fifty
wears ago by the women's father John
Mcscr. it had changed but little, and
articles which found favor in other
generations We're still displayed on its
counters.
The two women lived over the store
and in recent years passed but little
time in the store. There Judge, their
little dog. was left on guard. A stick
was placed against the door and when
1t was knocked down by the opening
of the door Judge would bark an an
nouncement to his mistress
The sisters were known for their
puritanical ideas and recently refused
to sell a pair Of stockings to a would
he customer because they said she
had not been to Sunday school in sew
eral weeks.
Three weeks ago Miss Frededika,
who Is 70 years old, called a physician
for her sister, ten years her junior.
The physician found that both women
were threatened with pneumonia and
sent them to the hospital. Both ap-
peared to be recovering. but on Satur-
day Miss Margaret died OF heart dis
ease. AS the sisters refused to be
separated in the hospital, being placed
in the same room. Miss Frederika was
present when her sister died, and the
physicians fear that the shock ma :.
cause her death.

which would enable man to fly, such

In 1899 the Wrights began their ex-
periments at Kitty Hawk. n. c., with a
glider, but 1t was far from a success
and they almost determined to cease
trying. However, the following year
they resumed their experiments, and
made some improvements.
It was not until 1903, however that a
motor was added to their machine, and
on December II four flights were made
with it at Kitty Hawk. The last had a
duration of fifty-nine seconds and a
distance Of $50 feet was made BY Will
bur Wright. These four fights, of
which each inventor made two. were
the first real fliaMs by man, and estab-
lished that the difficulties Of flying were
about to be overcome. They remained
at Kitty Hawk for the boisterous win
ter winds to prove that their machine
had the power to fly, the capacity of
control in all weathers, and the
strength to withstand landing shocks.
Having done this they returned to their
homes.

A S advertising took on this char
n acter, and was more and more
aimed to interest and inform,
it gained readers. House wives
learned that through reading the
advertisements of the stores they
could really learn things about COM
nodltles and their prices, without
spending needless hours of "shop-
ping" Thus the circle of people in
fiuenced by advertisements expand
ed with consistent and solid results.

more to organization, to system, to

she. too, was Gin business" and that
she owed it to herself and to those for
whom she acted as buyer to see to it
that her task was performed with ef-
ficiency and economy and wise judg-
ment. Thus the circle of people in
fiuenced by advertising widened and
expended in greater degree.
And the expansion of the circle
goes on. If a merchant holds the at
tention and interest of the people in
this city who read and are Influenced
in their buying by the ADVERTISE

IT PAYS TO
Read the Ads

TIME was, and within the memo
ries Of many Of us, when but
few people read advertisements
and those with misgivings.
Advertising had not yet found it's
proper place in the economy Of life.
Much of it was neither informing
nor dependable nor of interest.
AS with other phases of life, time
brought changes. Little by little
the tone Of advertising imp we'd,
and it came to be of use and service
to the people. It developed, gradual
~, into medium of information for
the people about commodities and
products and and facts and figures.
