APRIL RETAIL ADVERTISING.
April always presents particularly
profitable opportunities‘i‘or the adver-
tising of a retail hat business. and this
year this is more than usually so.
The'general public has been snowed
in and iced up in most sections of the
country for so long that the fair vvcath-l
er of April in itself is Nature's him

April is, or course, a month of! spring
styles. and it is likewise a time when
it behooves the retailer to push spring

mania attacks the public mind.

Window dressing. which indeed is

was not Willie’s fault. lie had never
been taken into a street car because
children coming down with measles

gone in kindergarten or school for
the reason that Mrs. Faruham knew
careless mothers who did not notice
that their progeny were {"1an to have
scarlet fever till they had it and it
made her nervous to think her son
might be exposed. The various gov-
crncsses she employed had to glvc

generations back a clean bill of health

Special perfumed disiufcciauis and
germ-killers were burned once a week

said neither could he.

A southern planter employed a
negro to work some of his land during‘
the past year on shares. ()n account
of the high price of cotton the col-
orcd man‘s half of the proceeds
amounted to $1,600, The planter
knew that it would Lulu any Afro-
Amerlcsn to get such a sum of money
and decided that half of it would be
enough. Upon further reflection the
conviction grew upon him that 3800
would ruin any negro in the world,
so he cut the sum in half again, and,
piling up 400 shining silver dollars
on his desk sent for the colored man
and brother and said that he was
