ANT OF MAKING‘THE TRUTH AT-
TRACTIVE 1le THE ADVER-
‘j TISING' LINE.

During the comes of a talk by

ager of Abraham'& Sirens. at the Y.
M. C. A. rooms in Brooklyn the other
niththlir. McCarthy said in part:
f‘The‘ first thing I would ‘teach a
class would be that advertising should
- bathe art of making truth attractive.
'1 The do when it was used as a means
of lend ng allurement to lies is pretty
well passed. The man who seeks to
enhance a stated value rather than to
lower the price of an article, to cre-

advertlslng does not pay. If you are

going to try to make money by eva-

sion1or fooling the public as a steady

business. the less said about it the
tar.

"A‘ $2 shoe of yesterday to be sold
at1$1 that mysteriously becomes a
82.50 shoe at $1.25 will soon be hard
to‘ sell at 50 cents. There was a time
when gmat sales were created in
some store by doubling the price and
then, cutting It in two, a very easy
way of selling things cheap without
losingany profit and a method of
proving that two goes into four three
times, that would make the public of
today a trifle skeptical.

,“Mark Waln‘remsrked that to be a
good manjjneant, to be lonely. Be a
good advertiser and you will never be
lonely. .There is a popular prejudice
against a man blowing his own horn.
But what in the world has he got a
He'll certainly
never make a noise in the world if
he doesn't blew his own born or get
some one to blow it for him. But let
him be caret ‘ ,_ at, he does not blow
it in such a‘Vvay as to be offensive to
his neighbors, or so load that he
frightens folks away, or so low that
he cannot be heard.

"Amen who' devotes his advertis-
ing to telling the mistakes of his
neighbor is merely teaching that
neighbor how to get ahead of him.
Convincing people how good your
own wares areir'm‘akes no enemy and
lots of friends. if: ‘

“A business man should know that
the definition of advertising Is a writ-
ten or printed notice to make some-
thing known to the public. It is more
to the purpose let them know that
You sell somet ng worth their while
than that your neighbors do not. It is
absolutely the antithesis of advertis-
ing to make something known that is
not so. Never tell about good goods
until you can deliver the goods as you
describe them. Advertising has the
first any. but do‘-ilot forget that the
seeds have the last word.

”No better motto for the Young
Men's Christlsjt Association advertis-
ing class cool be” selected than the
golden rule, '00 unto others as you
would have them do unto you.‘ If
you sre.sutlsiled that your goods are

purchaser‘s favor will please him
Inclefillian it will hurt your con-
science. This is a white lie that wise
advertisers frequently use. The old
fashioned turn of the phrase. “Do
others before they do you.’ has be-
come unpopular even among politi-

cianl.

FASHIONS AND CULINARY.
WRINKLEB.

Little cards bearing good wishes or
Christmas greetings in artistic letter-
ing are bought for very little, and
add much to thegeneral air of festivi-
ty and good will that should surround
all gifts, large and small.

The fichu that is half lace is ex-
tremely modish. The “aim proper is
a rather narrow fold of soft material
like the germ, with a wide lace friil
that extends over the shoulders. while
from a point on a level with the bust
line the lace leaves the fichu and falls
In a narrow point nearly to the knees.
This point consists of two widths of
the lace mltred together to make the
point. which may be finished with a
heavy tassel.

Little ribbon roses border the front
lace panel of a dainty evening gown.
and edge the short sleeves. Above the
girdle the roses are arranged in criss
cross fashion upon the lace vest which
is a continuation of the skirt panel.

A slender bracelet of oxidized sil-
ver, bearing a helpful or characterie
tic quotation, is a gift that would be
almost sure to prove‘a pleasant re-
minder of the giver.

Wide fallle ribbon makes an attrac-
tive garniture for evening bodices.
Starting in knots with flowing ends at
the sides of the cilemisette. the rib-
bons pass over the shoulders and down
the back, the two pieces meeting at
the waist line.

The embrodlery of lace with silk
thread gives the fashionable effect of
gold and white lace when heavy yel-
low silk is used
tern. -
Grape fruit glasses furnished with
inside cups and ornamented with gold
band and monogram. are a choice
gift for the housewife who likes to
add to her store of beautiful glass-
were.

The chief beauty of many of the do
butant/e's evening gowns this season
consists of the suppleness of the filmy
materials and the graceful lines of the
Empire designs chosen. ,

Mulls and neck ruffs of innumerable

silk, ribbon or velvet ribbon ruffles
are being fashioned by some gift giv-
ers. They are very fetching and very
fashionable: and while they may be
purchased at some of the stores if de-
sired. may also be made at home,
which can not be said of the hand-
some fur sets.
Hoods are very coqueltish on some
women, and these are taking advan-
tage of the present fall by having fur
hoods for motoring as well as silk and
chiffon hoods for evening ,wear.

Chinese lily buds are so very scarce
this season that the fine lot of nice
ones that apepared last year will con-
sequently be very expensive this sea-
son.

Umbrellas and walking sticks with
fascinating handles of jade are among
the choice things for Christmas pre-
sents. ,,

The fashion for evening gowns of
sheer stuffs over silver tissue inau~
gllrated' last'sesson continues in high
favor. the reason for this. no doubt,
lying in the fact that nothing is more
attractive under artificial light than
the glistening silver showing faintly
through the delicate fabrics of the
overdress.

LEGISLATIVE CLERKSHIP. ETC.

How Will Durant's Diabarmenl Affect
His Chances.
(Hartford Courant).

Nobody seems in a position to make
prophecies about the incoming begin
lature. It is conceded that Major Til~
son. of New Haven. will be Speaker of
the House. and it is doubted if the ful-
minatlons of Senator Judson and Rep-
roseniudve banks will load all estab
lished corporations to surrender their
charters. So far the prophets will
travel, but then they pause.

'l‘lle clerkship question is their first
obstacle. The disbsrment of Harold
ll. Durant. of Waterbury, and the aim.
ullaneous outbreak all over the State
and country against discreditabie
things have disturbed some schemes
that were supposed to be all set up.
Apparently things do not set up so

preferred leaving it to the members to]

secured promises , from members
enough to assure his election as clerk'
and so his vindication. Let the Leg-
islature rebuke the courts.

Durant has this advantage, that on,
the surface of things nobody is against
him. Mr. Spsfiord. last a degree
ahead of him, says he wants to move
up. and the candidates who have come;
on the scene so far have all declared
themselves as desiring the assistant
clerkship. These include Messrs, Biod-
gett of Winsted. 'Morrlson'of Donald
and Arnot of Manchester. Messrs.
Morrison and Arnot come in under the
"fill up Hartford county' program.
although it Is generally assumed that
the real contest is not between those
twohbut between Morrison and Blod~
gett. And any Hartford county can-
didate is up against the fact that this
county has IAeutenant Governor and
Attorney General and abundance of
other offices already.

There has been some talk about Sen-
ators acting for themselves and so
lecting their own clerk without regard |
to Mr. Durant's desire to keep in the
line of succession. it is an interestingl
question whether Mr. Baldwin, for in-
