The death of Andrew Pears. grout- grandson of the Andrew who I20 years ago founded the soap business which carried his name to the, rcmotest cor» tiers of the earth. recalls some lntt‘l‘- eating facts in connection with llll' evolution of the science of advertising. The original Andrew was a Cornish man keeping a little shop In London. who began making soap in a small way but advertising it In the newspapers to an extent. never before dreamed of. There being no trademark law, Pears hit upon the device of writing his name with a goose quill on the. wrap» per of every piece of his soap. None other was genuine. This soon made it impossible for Andrew to write the guarantee with his own hand. Early in the history of the house It. was resolved to make advertisements as attractive as possible. This princl~ pic was develoiled until the firm bc- gan to call in the services of the most renowned painters. One of the great» est successes in this direction was the purchase of Sir John Mlllais‘ picture of his little fall-headed nephew in a green velvet suit blowing soap bub~ bias. For this $I.I00 was paid. Equally well‘ known became the ’ re of the baby in the bath trying to pick up a piece of soap. It. was originally en- titled “A Knight of the Bath," and failed to catch on. By a. happy lnsplr~ atlon It was renamed “He Won‘t. Be Happy 'l‘lll He Gets It," and Its popu- larity became- phenomenal; even Harry Furnlss' Punch caricature of the firm's testimonial—~the figure of a ragged and dirty tramp sitting down to make the. affidavit. "Two years ago i used your soap: since then I've used no other“——was put. to a strikingly successful publicity. “flood morning.“ etc, the phrase by which the Pears product is most uni» versnlly known. was invented by Thus. Barrett. Barratt got his friends to draw up lists of the phrases most in common use. “ Iood morning." topped most lists, anti that fact suggested to Barrett, that he, could not do better than link it immortally with what he was advertising. Gladstone contributed to popularizlng the article by once ex- clalming. when he wished to-illustratc large numbers': “They are as numerous as the advertisements of Pears‘ soap or as the autumn leaves In Vullombrosa." Since starting business the Pears have spent more than $15,000,000 In ad- vertising. which may account for the big dividends the business is said to be paying.~Philadelphla ledger. "Well.

The friend of a well known United States senator was stricken Ill sudden- ly the other day, and rushed off to a hospital. The case was hurriedly diag- nosed as acute appendicitis, and the senator was notified that an operation would lll all probability be performed at once. The senator immediately prepared to send a note of condolence and. en- couragement to the patient, when a second message arrived,,luforming him that the original diagnosis was incor- rect. and the case was merely one of acute Indigestion.
