t1i dealing with their follows Often in
Irj the beginning it would have been
f much more profitable and easier to
avetave resorted to subterfuge but he

Jt than present results As time passedhis reputation r keeping his word-

I j with customers grew and this very
circumstance acted as a safeguard tointegrity there was no danger that
U1 id tricks of the trade would be substituted for candor On this basis his

states most of the home merchantswho advertise at all dont quote pric ¬
es They neglect to tell us prices oneverything they offer for sale Ofcourse we can go to the store and aqkthe price of this article and that butyou know how It Is one does not sowell exactly know what one wants tobuy wnen one gets in a store Andhere is where the mail order makesa hit They send us their advertisement matter Into our homes and weread it when we have not anythingelse to do Many orders are made upand sent out at just such times Thehome merchants can save the expenseof getting out of catalogues We peeple read the home paper more carefully than we do the catalougue and weread it every week
CANT DO IT ALLThe drummer is a necessity in the
I commercial world but he can not accomplish everything mainly becausewith all his push and enterprise hetan not go everywhere That experta merchandising Printers Ink showswhy very clearly in the followingparagraph The successful man theman with money is nearly always abusy man too busy to grant a personal interview except on matters relat ¬
ing to his own business But intohis private office and his home wherethe solicitor the salesman and thepromotor can not penetrate the news-paper the trade journal and the mag ¬
azine find their way In other wordsgood advertising media never sleep
MARK TWAIN ON ADVERTISINGMark Twain says When I was
editing the Virginia CIty Enterprisewriting copy one day and mining thenext a superstltous subscriber oncewrote and said he had found a spiderin his paper Was this good or badluck I replied to him in our An ¬
swers to Correspondents column asallows
If Old Subscriber The finding of aeider in the copy of the Enterprise
was neither good luck nor bad Thespider was merely looking over ourpages to find out what merchant wasnot advertising so that it could spinits web across his door and lead afree and undisturbed existence for ¬
ever after

PRINTINGNot slambang hitormiss goas
ouplease printing but printing plan-ned with its purpose constantly innind printing that fits becausenade to the measure of your particu¬
lar business and its needs That onekind we to We write plan print andbind We do the whole thing or anypart of it and nobody knows betterthan we do how such work should bedone
When a merchant or manufacturerdeclares that printing doesnt payit would be Interesting to know whathe means Frequently an analysis ofhis remark and what lies behind Itshows that while content with aprofit of say six per cent on ordinarynvestments he expects capital sunk
in catalougues and other literature tobring much handsomer returns Print ¬
ing pays if the returns are as greatas those from other sources in anyline of business which is a selfevident proposition There is not a su¬
perabundance ot reason to be mar ¬
shalled in support of he oppositecontention there is however a deeprooted notion that printed matter isa failure if It does not prove a bonan ¬
za and the notion should be comoatedby persistent argument
Those who have experimented byadvertising In the leading agricultural
I
papers say that farmers are buyingfine books pianos and a host of thingsthat a decade or so ago were concededto be byond them These advertisersalso found that the popular magazinesdo not reach all the people withmoney tospend While covering thecities and towns the rural districtshave not fallen under the spell of themagazine All of which should beand is good news for the brethren ofthe country press and we hopethey will profit largely by the im¬
proved standard oif living now obtain ¬
ing among their clientele to whoseinterests rural editors ever havebeen loyal and to whose advancementthey have aided so p1aterlal1YI
There is a certain locality up northwhere if a drop of water falls on onetilde of a given point it heads imme ¬
diately for the Gulf of Mexico andif it falls on the other side it landsin the Hudson Bay Now theres apretty definite point like that in ad ¬
vertising Pass it on the side ofAttractiveness and your catalougue
or booklet Is pretty sure to reachSuccess Pass It on the other side
the Ordinary sideand it is mostapt to sink into Mediocrity
What excuse have you for being inbusiness The proper sort of answerto that question will give you a goodbasis for several strong advertise ¬
mentsGrantedthat you know all about
your own goods does the other felloWthe prosPective purchaser alsoknow
TJio publics memory Is remarkablyshort See that you are long ongood advertisingr
Attract attention Thats what typeand ink are for But be sure you prop ¬
erly take care of that attention afteryouve captured it

TLA GRIPPE
WHAT THE MALADY REALLY IS
AND SEVERAL SUGGESTIONS FOR
ITS TREATMENT AND PRE ¬
VENTION
True the grip or influenza has aIhistory reaching bock for centuriesThe first epidemic in the UnitedStates was in 1647 In the last 100years four different waves of it hasswept over the country The firstin 1830 the second in 1836 another In1847 and the last In the memory ofus all in 1889 and 1890
The story of this last Is the storyof them all It begun in May 1889south of Siberia in Turkestan Trav-eling
¬
westward it reached Moscowby September Sa Petersburg by Oc ¬
tober Burlln by November Londonby December and January found it I
raging In New York and scatteringthroughout this country It Is saidto have flashed from New York toSan Francisco in three days I
In Its attacks two out of five peopie were affected young and oldweak and strong Fortunately themortality has been low varying from1 In 200 to lln 1000 cases i
It is an infectious disease which iscaused by germs shaped like dumbbells first described by the Germanscientist Pfeiffer True la grippemay seize a victim In summer as wellas in winter-
Since this last wave of universalla grippe there have been epidemicsin many cities There have been lo-calities in which it seemed to be everpresent there have been scatteredcases constantly here and therethroughout the country The bestauthorities now agree that the baconlusa of Pfeiffer is so generally distrib¬
uted that la grippe is an everpresentallprevailing possibility-
On the other hand there are thousands of cases of socalled gripeupsdo influenza These are notcaused by the original germ but aredue to ordinary air germs draughtsexposure and Inclement weatherThe large majority of cases at thisseason of the year are of this natureIt does not occur during the warm
weatherThesymptoms of the true and the
counterfeit are practically the samethe treatment the aime the dangerthe same The pne great differenceis that the average man could dodgethe false grip but if the real thinggets after him his degree of healthand vigor does not seem to help hima bit
In one case they are cold In thehead bronchitis and cough fever andmore or less prostration in anotherinflamatlon of the stomach and bow-els with vomiting colicky painsdiarrhea and fever Yet anothercase may begin with intense headachepains In the back limbs and alljoints with complete loss of strengthThese latter cases are the ones fol ¬
lowed by mental symptoms of theblues melancholia and rarely in-
sanity¬
The treatment outside ot the firstmeasures and home nursing shouldbe in the hands of a physician Donttrust to whisky and quinine and thelauded sure cures
The alcohol and stimulants cheerthe sufferer for a short time onlyAny benefit derived Is only from theperspiration which may result Thisperspiration may be produced withoutintroducing further poisons into the
already poisoned systemTake warm bath drink something
hot preferably lemonade or dilutedfruit Juice and get Into a warm bedHave a doctor in but dont invitethe neighbors The grip is contageousand too serious a disease to be soughtfor Dldge It if you can and if youhave it dont hannh it to your friends
The principal danger is that manyoases are neglected The man whoIs going to wear it out may pay forhis folly years later The intensepoisons affect the heart kidneys andnerves Rest and quiet with a simplediet of soup toast rice and fruit givethese organs a chance to fight thebattle
Cad lessness may Impose the laststraw upon an already weakenedheart and organic heart disease re ¬
suits Dont exert yourself until thefever has subsided and the tempera ¬
ture been normal at least two daysIf you would dodge the common or
false grip which Is so popular just
foodIor upon ngthe middle of the forenoon and after¬
noon and upon retiring Beware ofdraughts and wet feet
Do not expose yourself unnecessari ¬
ly by visiting with those already afflicted Take enough physical exerciseeach day to perspire and your chancesof dodging are good
Dont worry Cheer up Keep upyour general vitality and the ordi ¬
nary germ cannot touch you ChicagoJournal
