The Endless Chain
Ad
By KATE EDMoNDs

Ien' as II usually TOOK JACK ana Car
RE that long to dispose of news items
relative to their friends, and the very
personal questions which always arise
between lovers, and then Carrie
opend fire with this question:
Opened up on anything YETI"
Jack shook his head.
81 have an idea," Carrie then de-
clared, and without going into details
of the questions she forced Jack to
ask, it was as follows:
There was q certain manufacturer
Of household necessity who utterly
refused to advertise, declaring that
he had no faith In the efficacy of 1t,
and against Jacks repeated efforts he
ing agency had exhausted all their
good men on him before consigning
him to Jack, and naturally that har.
assed solicitor and lovelorn young
man was keen to land him.
Jack knew his business, although
he had not as yet made good, and told
Carrie in q very few words Just what
he thought OF her proposed campaign.
The next day it was opened, not with
band or any other noisy demonstra-
ton, but effectively. Within the next
week the crusty manufacturer began
to sit up straighter In his swivel
chair, for his postage bill was vlsibly
increased, and the mail man carried
two bags and threatened to give over
delivering the mail at all. The fifty
or more dealers In his household COM
modify began to rub their eyes and
send In doubled orders.
Up in the dingy little Office where
Carrie pounded out her usual letters,
a feeling Of contentment prevailed to
such an extent that the boss forgot to
KNOCK" and the Office boy actually
washed his face. Jack walked on air,
and could have been found studying
ads setting forth the delights Of three
and four-room flats. At the end Of
ten days he called upon the crusty
manufacturer, sending In his card with
this line written across the bottom:
81 can show you the ad which is
proving Its own worth"
