The Difference in Advertising
Is the Difference in Men

Of itself, advertising is little.
And the differences in it are
the differences which exist in
men.
Just as some men are strong
and virile and interesting, so
is some advertising. And just
as some men are Intellectual
and weak and boring, so is
some other advertising.

enjoy in anticipation all the fruits OF
their iniQuitous schemes. The sight
Of the golden coins intoxicated them.
They played with the doubloons Ike
children, jingling them in their cal
loused palms, guessing at weight ana
value. calculating their equivalent in
the joy of living. Laughter and oaths
reSounded.
And now the night that 1 unutter-
ably dreaded was upon us. But the
pirates still thought of nothing but the
gold. They had exhausted their own
portable supplies of liquor, and were
loud in their denunciations of our bone
dry camp, as they termed it.
1t was Tony who Intercepted ten
tative movement of Capt. Magnus in
my direction, and ordered me into the
cabin with my aunt and Miss Browne.
Through the walls of the hut we heard
loud and eager talk of the morrow and
its certain golden harvest as the pi-
rates made their dispositions for the
night. Then the voices trailed off
sleepily and silence succeeded, broken
only by the ceaseless murmur Of the
waves around the island.

With sweeping gesture he hung
down upon the table two brown can

coins.

shouted aloud. They ran and clutched
at the coins with a savage greed.
Gold, gold-the real stuff Its the
doubloonS, all right-where's the rest
of 'em?" These cries broke from
Slinker and Horny confusedly as the
gold slid jingling between their eager
fingers.
THE rest of 'em is-where they is

To the rest, these poor bones might in

but tragedy lacking outlines, vague,
impersoual, without poignacy. To me,
they told with dreadful clearness the

last sad chapter of the tale OF Peter;
Peter who had made me so intimately
his confdante, whose love and hopes
and solitary strivings 1 knew all
about.
Vaguely l heard around me babble
Of exclamations and conjectures. Muir
murs of interest rose even from our
captive band. Then came Slinker's
voice, loud with sudden fear:

Bones would Of got away with the rest
Of the coin somehow, do you?" he de-
manded

tuously thrust aside the possibility.

notion Is that this happened to one of

and that the rest jest left him there

They wouldn't leave that for a
