Advertising In a dally newipaper la the only method of reaching the great unknown quantity, the prospective au tomobile buyer, declared James A. Braden, advertising manager of the Dlamodd Rubber company, Akron, Ohio, In an Interview with a repre sentative of the St. Louis Post-Dis patch. "The fact that only one man In many Is a purchaser, or prospective purchas er, of an automobile, gives the adver tising man In the automobile or auto mobile tire business a very consider able problem to work out. “To reach the present owner of a machine Is not so very difficult. In the course of regular advertising or by circular matter. "The immense factor the advertising man must reckon with is the vast un known quantity—the man who has not bought a car, but who Is going to buy. His name Is legion and he lives every where. He may be In a bank or on a farm, but his name and address are ’ not known. He may read the maga I sines, but It Is very much of a ques tion whether he has so far progressed toward motoring as to be reading any of the automobile publications. "One certain thing Is, though, that be reads the newspapers. One can Im agine a man who does not read a dally paper, but he cannot conceive of that man being the owner or prospective buyer of a car. "In advertising our car*, we havs I kept constantly In mind the great un j known quantity to which I have al luded. It la our pronounced conclu j slon that we cannot afford to devote a great part of our advertising appro priation exclusively to the trade pub lications, because nearly all of their circulation la within the trade or the list of present automobile owners. Similarly, If we seek to reach the doc tor through his favorite medical jour nal, there are some six or eight of these publications to be employed. The same thing will apply to the bank ing papers and all class literature. "The point In mind Is that we must i get the doctor, the banker, the archl j tect. the lawyer, the dentist, the ! wholesale merchant and the retail man In any line of business, all at the same time, by the use of the newspapers.” $1,000,000 FOR ADVERTISING Young Man Intrusted With Task of Spending This Sum Believes News papers Bring Bast Results.

The ■1,000,000 campaign will be In the in terest of one of the biggest realty and Investment companies In the coun try. In a letter Ingold has the follow ing to say concerning his opinion of the merits of the various kinds of ad vertising: “I anticipate that newspapers will get the bulk of the million as I re gard newspaper advertising far and away superior to any other kind aside from personal solicitation. "I presume the monthly magazine will take a large portion of the sum get the results out of It that I ex pect to get out of the newspaper ad allotted’me, but I do not think J will vertlsing.

More than forty members of the Six Point league of New York attended the second fall luncheon of the associ ation recently. The chief speaker waa S. C. Dobbs, general advertising and sales manager of the Coca-Cola com pany of Atlanta, Ga., who discussed the responsibility of the newspaper to Its readers and advertisers. He s&ld among other things: “To those of us who are watching the trend of newspaper publications It Is inspiring to note the efforts that are being made towards giving advertisers and the public that confidence which guarantees a full measure of integrity. In virtually every city of this country one or more papers are bending their efforts to the giving of a square deal; publishers who say that no unclean thing can be advertised In their col umns. who will not print wildcat min ing and land schemes. The standard magazines are even In advance of the daily papers, and are eliminating from their pages every advertisement of a questionable nature. Many of our best publications today stand back of and guarantee the statements In their ad vertising columns. “Men who would not stoop to tell a personal He have not hesitated to per petrate unspeakable frauds In the of publicity, so that many have been led to regard advertising as a gross exaggeration. “The ‘survival of the fittest’ Influ ence has been bringing about a radi cal change in this condition. It did , not take long to realize that mislead ing snd untruthful advertising would r not bring returns—that the dishonest advertisers could not achieve a perma nent success any more than a dishon est merchant or manufacturer. There is a moral responsibility in advertls ing an untruth.” Advertising Boosts Land Prices. Missouri lands have increased In price in the last year on a state-wide acreage from three to four dollars an acre. The prospect Is that this will be doubled and even quadrupled In a few years. The increase is attributed directly to advertising, in the report of Chief Commissioner John H, Curran oi' the Missouri state hoard of Immigration. It Is on the figures compiled by the board that the above statement is Is sued. “The work of advertising the state by the newspapers, the board, the real estate and land men and other Influ ences has resulted In an actual in crease In value and price of Missouri land from three to four dollars on an average of every acre In the state, with the Imediate prospect of being doubled and even quadrupled In a few years,” the report reads. The report is the authority for the following estimates: In northern Missouri the rise is from five to ten dollars an acre on an average, the result of the wide pub licity given the comparison of the lands with similar lands of surround ing states. Missouri farm lands In the north sold for from $45 to SIOO an acre, while similar lands In northern Illinois and lowa brought from S9O to $250. —St. Louis Republic.

RURAL SUSPENSION BRIDGE Unique Affair for Pedestrians at Fen tonville, N. Y., Built by Popu lar Subscription. Fentonville, N. Y. —The suspension foot bridge pictured here runs east and west across the Conenango river at Fentonville. It was built about two years ago by popular subscription among the cottagers and residents of Fentonville. Since the Warren and ''" ' I Bridge at Fentonville. Jamestown trolley passed through the | village, it Is quite well known as an | excellent place on the banks of the j river for picnic and outing parties. In ! the distance from the bridge may be seen part of the buildings on what was the 1,000-acre farm owned by the late W. H. H. Fenton, a brother of Gov. Reuben C. Fenton. The river at this point Is about 150 feet In width and 50 years ago all traffic between Dunkirk, N. Y., and points south crossed the river about where the foot bridge now is, It being a state road, with a road bridge. But through some misunderstanding be tween the two townships, the town of Carroll being on the east side of the I river and the town of Klantone on the J other, the road bridge was abandoned and traffic was forced to take what ts i known as the Jamestown and Warren j highway, on the east side of the river. The state road is still open on either side of the river, and residents have repeatedly petitioned for a road bridge to be built. But as eight feet of the west approach would be In the state of Pennsylvania the question : arose whether only one state ought to build It. About six feet souht of this point near the wire fence in the pic ture Is a mile stone on the state line between the states of New York and Pennsylvania. Appeasing Souls of Oxen.

As an example of trustß and monojy oUes prevalent even in that early day It may be mentioned that in 1750 one Benjamin Crabb obtained the exclus ive right to make sperm candles in Massachusetts for 14 years. A year later, however, a factory was started In Providence, R. 1., and with in the decade there were eight fac tories in New England and one in Philadelphia. Their output greatly re duced the price of candles, which not long before sold for five shillings a pound. In those days $1.25 was worth fully three times as much as It Is now. —From the Designer. $3.50 RECIPE CURES WEAK KIDNEYS, FREE RELIEVES URINARY AND KIDNEY TROUBLES, BACKACHE,STRAIN ING, SWELLING, ETC.
