is a taste, a taste is an inclination,
an inclination is an angel, an angel
is a point, a point is an object aimed
at, an object aimed at is a target, a
target is a maik, a mark is an impression,
an impression is a stamp,
a stamp is a thing stuck on. a thing
stuck on is young man in jove, and
a young man in love is like the letter
"l' because he stands before u, Miss
Maude" And what did you say Maude
dear? I said; "I don't think you have
the answer quite right, darling
Vivian." "A ball of yarn is round, a
round is a steak, a steak is a woodeu
thing, a wooden thing, is a young
man in love, and the young man in
love is like the Jetter 't" because,
darlitg Vivian?and the spoke clearly
and distinctly?"became tie is often
crossed." And then what did Vivian
do, Maude dear? He departed like the

Have you ever considered an advertising
campaign from the standpoint i
of an insurance policy?
You insure against such contingencies
as fire, shipping disaster, dishonest <
employes, etc., as a matter of course,
but the moment some one mentions
advertising as a business-builder for
your particular beneath you immediately
begin to"hedge" and vow that you
can not afford sucb an expensive
Inxury, etc., etc.,
Have you ever thought that the
ijreatest of all calamities?1033 of
trade?can te insured against?
The "premium" represented by the
cost of advertising is, in proportion to
the importance of the security afforded,
uo higher than other insurances: in
fact, it is considerably smaller and
soon becomes a miuus quality. Any ,
other kind of insurance is an expense;
worse than that?it is a dead loss so 1
lorg as tbeie is no "claim."
But the insurauce of trade represenled
by advertising carries a direct ,
profit with i?. It covers not only the
rii-k of losing trade, but also the minor
ri>k of being compelled by competition
to carry on business at a diminishing
profit.

represented by your advertising outlay
are so sys-tematica'ly recouped by the
current and simultaneous increase of
profits that, instead of being regarted
as an investment of capital, as they
ought logically to be, they are almost
invariable written off. year by year, as
a current expense.
A considerable proportion of such
"premijms" could properly be treated
as invested capital,since the good will
and assured maintenance of demand
is a tangible and salable asset.
Think it over?you who have been
accustomed to regard advertising as
so much blue sky and hot air. Read
thoroughly practicable business, prop*
osition and should be considered in no
other light. Keep up your advertising
"premiums"' and you won't have "to
die to win."

"Last year I suffered for three months with a
summer sold so distressing that It Interfered
with my business. I bad many of tbe symptoms
of bay fever, and a doctor's prescription
did not reacb my case, and I took several
medicines which seemed only toaggrnvate It.
Fort nately I insisted upon having Foley's
Honey and Tar. It quickly cured me. My
