Br M I.KK Hft'AUKK. h Aooe#r iMi'ior V*w Nokjumt Mmjikui, New You* CiTT. AT advertising U ? lio greatest foree in t lie industrial life of a M u&tion n i.mply proved by tbe fact that a larger amount of money :s invented in it annually than Hi any other field of effort. A thousand million doliarn a year nt expended in advertising, a vest Hum which equals 1 per cent, of tbe entire wealth of the nation and approximate* the vuluo of all the im(>orta of the country. This enormous amount is spent for space in newspapers, and in the many other channels tbiough which the news of the business world is brought before tbe publie. This great investment of capital sells over $15,000,000,000 worth of tho products of the nation's industrial efforts. I^ast year there were ap* 'proximately 220,000 manufacturer* in the country, with a total capitalisa tion in round numbers of $14,000,000,000, Tbe sale* resulting from the extensive advertising campaigns of these manufacturers prod used u return to the manufacturers of more than $15,000,000,000. Compared with the expenses incurred by tho prod^c-ors to reach the consumers? which is slightly in excess of $ 1 ,000,000,000 the cost of accomplishing tho sule of tbe vast amount of goods produoed approxi mates 7 per cent. In no other field of human effort is there so much money spent as ia advertising. That it is productive of satisfactory results is proved by the fact that from year to year tho amount of money spent to spread business news increased by about 2 per cent, to 3 per cent. Without the use of advertising, tho commercial life of the nation would be practically at a stand-still. It is the channel through which the manufacturer must reach tho consumer and without which he would liave to limit his sales to tbe immediate neighborhood of his factory. What is lliis magic force which we cajl advertising? In the first pluco, and above nil things, it is the shortest, in fact the only practicable line between manufacturer and consumer. It is the news which the industries of tho country publish to the great buying public, Without it, the publie would remain in ignorance of the existence of tho goods produced. Advertising represents a composite of all trades, professions and occu pations, All tho professions will in a few years, advertise. The livj minister does advertise now. The hanker is one of the most successful adver tisers of today, yet a few yoars back the idea that the dignified banker should ever have to advortiso would have seemed ridiculous. ? ? ? t Tho Creative Power of Advertising. Do Weeso says, "Advertising makes two blades of grass grow in tlie business world where only one grow before." It is a business-builder with a potency that gee* beyond human desire, and creates wants. J: 'Walter Thompson said in Appleton's Magazine, "In modern times udvrrtising has become ono of tho mainstays, and, in many lines, the prin cipal creative force for businea*, and yet the wonder is that ho many men having a good business reputation fail utterly to grasp its possibilities or tho necessity for continuous advertising. "Tho StieJcer Is tho Winner." "Tho human mind it: like a fertile Held. Sow the seed and let it tak> root ami grow, and in due time tin* harvest comes. But the man who ex pects the harvest t lie day or month after the sowing of the seed would be looked upon as deficient in common sense,,' Tho hiieeessfu) advertiser knows that he had to stick to it, get behind it, and push it before the people, through the power of publicity, until the public! -makes th"> demand.' lie knows hw motto is "The sticker is tho winner." Thru? may be nothing in a name tint i I it is advertised, then it may become a household word and be worth miliums of dollars. A gowd example of tins is the National Biscuit Company's advertising. They took a common ?.;>dn cracker, put it in an attractive package and gave it a suggestive name, Uneedi Bireuit. Then they put money and brains be hind' the .name, and made rverybody acquainted with it. Within a few months whenever one wanted a cracker, one instinctively thought of Unceda Biscuit. I am tc.Ld that the idea for this name was suggested by a parrot's "Polly wants a cracker." A clever advertising man simply changed tho phrase to Unceda Biscuit Educational Value of Advertising. Now* in nil vert ising. keeps the nation informed of the new things for woar, art iclos for donicst!j convenience. etc.. in advance. This is one of the reasons why women rend the fashion magazines so. closely to get the news and styles ? ? f fashions in advance. A whole nation can be made aware at one time of a new product by "news'' advertising appearing simultane ously in papers all over the country. Department stores have achieved their remarkable -ucccss simply because their advertisement* 'are store news, and il is now ji recotrnizcd fact that women read -this class of advertising news with keener iMei est tlian the regular news columns: John \N annmaker sees and has pointed out the educational value of advertising: " Advertising plays a part in the world of t rade that _doesnoi^ appear upon supertlela 1 rending. True, there is much advertising that contains nothing beyond screams- of alliged bargains and rhetorical rhodomontade. Hut there j is adverti-in^ with a deeper purpose, which, while written with the expec tation of sufficiently reinuMerntive immediate response, also serves a deeper ! and buoader usefulness to the store that exploits it, as well as conserving to I broad public good. Vou probably think of advertising as confining its ef forts to winning your interest in the store's merchandise, and impressing you with the fact that a certain stotv is u good one to trade with. 1 5 u t adver tising o'. the higher sort aims at ever so much more. It does not confine its efforts to telling you where to buy things of which you foelHho need ? it educnt i<s desire. ' ' The Saturday Evening I'ost, which knows something about the subject, I recently had a leading editorial on " Educational Advertising," in which j it says : "Advertising is one of the greatest of educational forces. Education t means rousing the spirit of inquiry. The easy and the sensible way to rouse this spirit i ti any human being is to tell him of something which he noes not know and which it will be clearly to his advantage to know. The man with something good to sell is therefore in a position to increase ; the sum of human cotnfor! and happiness, and the more he bonelils himself j the more does he increase that sum." Advertising In Politic**. M a lingers of political campaigns have just bevrun to appreciate the value I of publicity that can be secured through a vaiiety of mediums. Nearly f every man seeking ail office of any prominence today lias in his employ ai i press agent to further hts interests. TI. o newspapers, magazines, billboards, and other mediums are used ex I tensivelv by politicians. In the last president lal campaign. (Icoru'C B. Cortelyou, that shrewd manager of Mr. Roosevelt 's interests, mapped oh( a publicity course thai attract" d wide attention and countless votes. Mr. Cortelyou decided to purchase space in leadinir publications and employed a clever press agent 1 1? secure free press notices. Then he contracted for a number of page* in virions magazines, which h?> utilized to excellent advantage in getting the issues of the campaign and the personalis of ! Roosevelt before the voters. It was the first departure of its kind from tho I old campaign methods that I have noticed, and how effectively it vorked is an old story now. In many publications Mr. Roosevelt's picture was used with a clever write-up of the man and his views. In most instances it was plai'n that the article was pure advertising, but that detracted but ? little frotn its value. This paid advertising did not prevent the magazines from using tho I usual interesting contributions in its reading pages either, but rather did ; it increase such contributions. The idea itself brought out much comment, j as Mr- (,'orteh k;i 's plan of campaign was new and luiMH'^ssdike and ; brought results. The mnuner in which it was carried out stamped Mr. i Cortelvou a* an advertiser eontident '.hat advertising brings results. This year's political campaign goes to prove more than ever before the ; efficiency of proper publicity, and emphasizes the statement made long ago j by the writer, to the eject that there nre many lines of business and ; ; professions not using publicity, which can do so advantageously. The j lliMt in corJi of thme lines to realize fhi* fact will reap a harvest. Personality In Advertising. Thomas W. Lawson said: "M\ moiit effective force, my most powerful weapon is publicity. It is the irresistible instrument by the use tvf which I am enabled to strike, and by means of which it is possible for mo to arouse people to action." It is bv no means necessary that personality, as an advertiser, should consist of the seller's personal acqaintanee with those whose custom he solicits. " Acquaintance 'by reputation" is sufficient. For instance, take tho conspicuous ease of the ex-Governor of Massachusetts. In his advertis ing methods he has riveted the attention of the public to his own person ality. It has been impossible for innnv years part to fake up a newspaper anywhere that the portrait of W. L. Douglas did not meet the eye at the head of the advertisement. It is impossible to estimate how much greater his sales hr.ve been as a result of this display of personality than would have resulted without if Publicity Am Enormous Power. The tremendous value of advertising in the commercial life of a nation was foreseen by the great Macaulav, who said, "Advertising is to business what steam is to machinery, tho great motive pdwer. " Gladstone, also, some time before bis death said, "Publicity is an enormous power in busi ness, and nothing- can make jnoney without it, save a mint.*' John Wana makcr, one of the greatest and mast successful advertiser* in the world, says, "It is impossible to build a large business to-day without publicity. Advertising is on evolution of modern industrial competition." Said Hor ace Greeley, "To neglect to advertise is like resolving never to travel by steam or to communicate by telegraph " Lord Roaeberry, during the time that ho was Prime Minister of England, stated to his Cabinet, on an oe eaaion when the subject was nnder advisement, that advertising was tha anvanee agent of prosperity, that it fM tinqneationabljr tha most wonderful ""d*? - ZEPPELIN AIRSHIP MASS OF WRECMGE Explodes During a Thunderstorm and Blows Away. -?M ?mmm INVENTOR BROKEN HEARTED H\n i|it From lu Mooring* at KEchter.

It descended and landed on dry land easily and smoothly. One of the steel wire stays snapped, but otherwlso the airship was as unruffled as. If it had been dropped into its accustomed place in Lake Constance. It was the first time on record tha-t a dirigible balloon had landed on firm ground without sustaining injury, 'I hough Count Zeppelin was much cast down by the unlooked for ending of what promised to be a record breaking flight throughout, it Is prob able that ho will lose no time in con structing another airship. A Gov ernment check for $125,000 is on the way to him and Biihucription lists are being opened in the large cities to raise funds for another airship. When over Kchterdlngen Count Zeppelin decided to land, and the landing was effected easily and smoothly, only one Of (lie steel wire stays being broken.

Rome of the bystanders remarked to the officers that a storm was brewing nnd advised theni to se cure the airship, but their warning was unhoedl'd, and at 'I, OS a formid able gust of wind struck the airship broadside. At first the craft heelea over and thrr her bows rose In the air, carry ing jvith them a number of soldiers whTT Were holding the ropes. After poising for a moment at a height of fifty feet the airship crashed to the Ki'ound and the forward motor ex ploded. From the bows shot forth a flame, while from the rear came thick clouds of black smoke, shrouding the entire structure. When the air cleared the airship was seen lying in an open field on a high plateau, with (he aluminum en velope in ragged, tangled strips. The metal stays and bands and portions of. the motor* were strewn about, black filed and _h ti rncd scraps. Officers rushed forward r.nd found lhat several soldiers had been hurt. The four engineers who had occupied the forward platform of the airship had escaped death, but were suffering from injuries. They were taken to a hospital. '1 he men had tried when the balloon broke away to couple up the motors so as to ascend beyond danger, but had failed. Count Zeppelin was Immediately s^r.t for. When he arrived and saw the hopeless wreck he broke down. Ills head was bent on his cheat and tears were streaming from his eves as he stood in an attitude of despair In front of the shattered airship. Then friends induced him to enter a motor car and return fo Stuttgart whence later he left by train for 1' riedrichshafen. Fried rich<hafen. ?
