Dollar day will be celebrated Wednes-

Terr®

Haute merchants. It is

occasion on which special bargains |^J«are provided for the people who buy Sphere. However, the development of the institution of Dollar day brings a reflfcction on what can be accomplished advertising methods consistently

r(i

applied. The power of advertising is daily performing such wonders that »the science deserves the closest study iFlJfky every business man, no matter how "j^great

small his business. The lan-

guage is uniform. The national -habit Is avidity for print. An advertisement Is understood where neither editorial ,*IMr.- news dispatch has meaning.. No -wonder, then, that advertising and the printed meseagfe direct is increasing by leaps and bounds—is being used with •sresults by practically. every line of

business. This is an k'ge of education, of read-'-?2 Ing, of distribution, of Information.

People want to be told, thoy ejxpect solicitation of trade through the medium iot th^ pMnted Word they hav6 un'consciously acquired a new view on methods .of living, modes of bread.winning, are made acquainted with pr^ Jiew wants, ec6notiilc or ethical, prejudices have been narrowed down and the jAiv-'v.-fcr-/i -1 horizon of. a.broader usefulness of, life jLj Is the result *f the educational power \fp xt advel-tisingr. ,'

Business men who get tho. habit of Using "direot advertising" are likely Ik to keep it-up, from the very fact that the public quickly'forms the habit of ft' forgetting about a business or a prod- $. uct that does npt keep Itself befpre the minds of the people. ,Business,as.well as the public are sensitive to attentionv to neglect either Is to incite dlssatls|n- ffetloiA—w^.l^OT^pfiJ^er^t,on .on«: .IJ' sldQ and reduced profits on the other.

lR5%£ newspaper spirit.

'^^l® truth Is plain to any one who kno^s a modern newspaper office from Ste^the 'inside that the Institutional spirit has selaed upon the. wprkers, sp.ys the t/^-^e'Wf York Evening Post. They are: not L'r ^thinking all the time about themselves, but iibout the paper. Thefr persoiiify.lt.

Little by little they become absorbed In the team play rather than in every man fighting for his own hand. They conie instinctively to think of their newspaper as something with a life of its own, wholly independent of the particular men who happen at the moment to he responsible. ss SJiJltors and wrftefs may come and ),go It is the paper that goes on forever, r' This institutional sense sometimes gets so Strong upon newspaper men that

A concrete exairifcle of what we ifteaft has Just been offered in New York. The Sun has been moving front the building ing with which lta name has been so long Identified.

The occasioji was one to bring ,out the truth that there Is such a thing as the impersonal Sun. It was not a set of editors changing their offices it was the Sun going to a new local habitation.

There haive been specis.1 reasons why the Sun should have acquired this air bf being an. institution.

Under changing managements' it has maintained a distinct personality. And It has b$en successful in binding a great variety of workers to it in a fine esprit de corps.

Let William Jennings Bryan go to any of them and tell them that, by not signing their names, they are sacrificing their talents to a greedy newspaper, and they would laugh in his face. What are they there for except for the'greater glory of the Sun. This might be all Greek to Mr. Bryan, but it Is the sober truth. And what is true of the Sun is true, in one degree or another, of,a .... ,. 7. thousand newspapers.

"The trousers are not to be greatly altered," is the, cheering news that comes from the tailors' and cutters' convention. now ass«mbled at Cedar Point "Moderation and comfort will, prevail."

Anyway/ men are generally pretty sensible about what they wear and how. Certainly, it is the acme of good sense not to follow fashions blindly or to spind more than a reasonable portion of ope's income to keep pace with changing notions. Men will.

"I was all in," Swing continued, "and just had to drag through my day's work. My blood was impure/and my entire system was badly run down. I had no' appetite to speak of and very little energy. The slightest task tired me. I had no life in my body, it seemed. "Finally, after seeing Tanlac advertised and hearing of the good It had done others, I decided to try the medicine. Since I began Tanlac*s use I have improved In every way. My appetite is getting better. I am full of life and feel like working. Unmistakable signs show that my blood has been purified. Why, I hardly know what it is to be tired now, no matter how hard my day's work has been. I am pleased to recommend Tanlac and hope that my words will be the gleans of bringing relief to others suffering as I did."
