MAKING‘WISE CRACKS’. / IS BUSINESS OF CHARLES L. ARCHBOLD ■■ (Continued from page one) and remembered as proverbs, all over , the Middle West. Hla audiences have! been growing steadily for thirteen I years; they Jnclude messenger boys, I college presidents, governors, senators, and all sorts and conditions of folks. i Mr. Archbold is advertising manager of the National Ruflning and the Canadian Oil Companies, Ltd., with' I headquarters* in Cleveland. His epi-1 grams are his means of advertising his compi.ny's products. His story shows that there is never any telling how big a thing a man can make out of ome special knack he may possess, I provided ho uses his head in develop-1 ing it. You can't loaf and have* dough” Archbold admits, and that is' a slogan he has been living by ever' since he was a kid. His father, who hud a general store in Decatur. Indiana, told him Ke ought to go to 00l- ] legfc; but Chartie preferred to hang] around and find out why the store: didn't attract more business. Soon 1 he began to write the advertising for j it. He did a good job of it. "Once,” he says, "a macaroni com-] pany offered three prizes for the best original advertisements of their pro-! ducts written by dealers and inserted l in local papers. The first pri»e was Itwenty-tive dollars. I took a shot at it. and won first prize. I “A grocery paper in Chicago heard I of me through that contest, and asked 1 me to write a weekly article tor them, 'telling dealers how to advertise. Il (thought other dealers would appreI ciate the same kind of stuff, so I mov- ( led to Cleveland, and began writing ■ for a lot of trade magazines. I-ater. II started an advertising agency, and j in 1910 1 took over my present job. I ‘ I was always reading the adveri Using magazines from cover to cover I land backward, and sdmewhere I noiticed the statement that the reason ! so many people write long letters is ( I because they don't have time to write | short ones! That set me to thinking. II went to work to see just how thuch | you could say in a few words. That’s how I started on epigrams. *'l had quite a time persuading our people to let me use them in Uie atF, vertising. They were afraid that it would seem undignified — look almost as though we were poking fun at our own business. , “Finally, they let me* try 'em out. Nobody has ever wante dto quit since! “First, I had the epigrams printed, on cloth and sent out to be tacked up at our service stations; but that cost too much. Then I tried boards with the epigrams printed on them. We switched the 1 boards from station to station: but some of the pigrains were meant to be timely, and certain, stations were* always getting them on the wrong dates. Next, I tried having plain blackboards at each station. Jetting the dealer paint the epigrams on for themselves. "Os course the dealers weren't trained to do it like experts, and a good many of the boanls looked as if they ‘had been lettered by schoolboys. !$> that gave me an idea: I had a big figure of a boy made up. showing him holding an imitation slate. When i'ue lettering went on the slate rather crudely, it looked as if the boy had written something smart, and was holding it up for everybody 'to see. There was a human touch to that, 1 and it went straight home. The boy with his slate today stands in front ' of more than twelve thousand service stations, garages, general stores, and places where oil and gasoline are sold, and each boy delivers the tnes- ’ sage at each place Io probably not fewer than five hundred people every day." Here are just a few of the twenty or thirty thousand epigrams Arch- ' bold has written: « "Always watch the car behind the one ahead .of you." (The judge of the speder's court in Cleveland liked this so much that he had it printed on a ALL RUN DOWN, NOW HEALTHY “Honestly, in all my 15 years of ex perience as a nurse I have never known of a medicine that compares with Tanlac,’ is the glowing tribute of Nurse M. E. Chappell?. Thu*, an:- i-'i r ' Tanlac and always with surprising results. Some time apo my Mother complained of being generally run down and on the verge of a nervous breakdown. She had no appetite, her stomach was disordered, digestion weakened and her bowels were most irregular. “Tanlac came to her aid at once, brought on a vigorous appetite so that she began to eat with the greatest relish, and made the digestive organs function properly once more. In a snort time.she was well, happy an<i strong, and although over R 0 years of age she is now vigorous enough to look after her household duties and go out quite a little, too. This is why I praise Tanlac and consider it the best tonic and health builder ever discovered.” What Tanlac has done for others it can also do for you. Tanlac is for sale by all good druggists.

My wife qime home one day with a new pocketbook, which she had had charged. I That suggested to me. 'An optimist is one who buys a pocketbook on I credit.” I "I file my ideas at home, and once a month I go over them and try to | boil them dowq to ten words.” | Eight'en or tewenty epigrams are . used each month on the hoy and slate signs. But, tn addition, Archbold j writes fifty or more besides for the I house organ he edits, which goes to ! many thousands of automobile owni ers every month. | He dearly loves a good joke; and I it was quite natural for him to insert, t without comment in one of his house . organs, "It is a peculiar fact that | the word land' occurs only once in , the Bible.” I He was deluged with hundreds of letters of protest, many of them I quoting chapter and book, starting I with Genesis. His characteristic l comeback at them all was: “I'm glad to do what 1 can to get folks to read the Bible!” — ■ -o— Coal Dealers Urge Use Os Anthracite Substitutes Toledo. 0., Oct. 21. —Wholesale and ' retail coal dealers, are Opposed to 'the Pennsylvania anthracite strike r nft favor increasing use of anthracite substitutes, according to opinions expressed before the executive committee of the National Retail Coal Merchants' association, meeting here. | “If there is no anthracite mined before February 1, 1926. there will be no further use for hard coal in AmerNational Hotel on Friday, Oct. 16th there will he a foot specialist at this hotel.
