THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. MONDAY, OCTOBER 1. HOI 11 The Modern Way to Sell Goods Trade conditions are changing mightily from the old ways. It used to be that the retail salesman'had to do a lot of -introductory and educational work—had to spend much time showing various goods and explaining their merits. Now all this preliminary work is done before the customer goes to the store—done by advertising. Staples of high quality, as well ns novelties, are adver tised by name, brand or tragic-mark, their uses and merits are made known through newspapers, and the consumer is thoroughly familiar with their value and desirability when the need for tlfem arises. And people buy the goods they know by name nnd reputation in preference to unknown, unadvertised arti cles. Thfe dealer finds them easier to sell, therefore the jobber has a better demand for them. Thus the manu facturer who advertises his wares to the consumer creates a demand that the dealer and jobber must sup ply with his goods and no other. The manufacturer who uses this newspaper reaches the best consumers in this locality, reaches them when they have time to consider his claims for their patronage • anil reaches them through a medium that helps him with its own influence. The Massengale Advertising Agencv, of Atlanta, Ga., can help any manufacturer in the prepa ration and placing of convincing advertising matter. CAPTAIN BURTON SMITH VOLUNTEERS FOR RESCUE AND FINDS MISSING BO\ Burtwi Smith, captain and adjutant of the Fifth Georgia regiment, volun teered for the rescue corps Saturday night. He responded to a call for as sistance and saved a wanderer in dis tress. The Marietta and Peachtree corner was as crowded at 8 o'clock Saturday night as it always is at that hour. A nasty, drilling rain did not Improve the spirits of pedestrians. Certainly It did not serve to cheer the heart of Lewis Stewart Mayo, who was tired of the crowd, tired of the streets and the clanging street car that kept him dodg ing. tired of electric lights and wet pavements, and anxious to gp home to supper. „ % Lewis Stewart Mayo la not as big as his name. He Is almost eight, but'he hasn’t grown very tall even In those years. He had his home at 83 Harris street early In the morning. But where he went and what he suw is a sealed book. Lewis is not loquacious. Captain Smith was swinging along, turning an eye toward Decatur street lest there should be occasion for an other call fo5 troops. He heard some body softly crying and looked down. It was a long way from the big cap tain’s eyes to the tear-bedimmed blue ones of Lewis Stewart Mayo, but their glances met half way and that made it paster. Lewis’ head reached to the captain’s knees. His troubles climbed straight to the captain’s heart. “NVhat’s the matter, my boy?" asked Captain Smith. “Are you lost?" The little fellow cried all the harder. The .captain tried new tactics. “Where do you Jive, son?” he asked. More tears. Then Police Sergeant Shepard came by and stopped to drive the 1 crowd away. "This is a case of strategy,” remarked the captain. He picked up the little fellow and sought the nearest soda fountain. Under the influence of cho colate Ice cream and cake Lewis Stew art Mayo forgot his tears and his ap petite Indicated that he had missed both dlnnet and supper. But he pre served his attitude of reticence and de clined to talk, either for publication or as art evidence of good faith. "Well. I guess it’s up to the police station," said the captain. And to the station they went. There they found that Mr. and Mrs. Mayo had been keeping the telephone busy with ap peals to the police to find their prodigal son. The afternoon papers had carried the story' of his disappearance and in a short time Lewis Stewart was restored to his own fireside. But what Lewis did during his twelve hours of hobo life win never be known until he chooses to tell: Maybe he’ll tell his mother some day, but one thing Is certain—he won’t tell any one else.

Chicago, Oct. 1.—J. Ogden Armour and other Chicago packers have been asked to go before Commissioner Lyle D. Taylor today and tell what they know about the operation of a packers’ trust in Arkansas. Sixty witnesses have been asked to testify. Including heads of departments, agents and bookkeepers. If legal representatives of Arkansas win their case, the packers must in all probability abandon their warehouses and depots in Little Rock. Texarkana, Fort Smith, Pine Bluff, Helena and a dozen other cities and towns in the state. The Arkansas attorneys figure that they can collect a minimum Ane of $200 a day from each of the big pack ers represented In their state for six months’ violation of the law during the latter pan of 1905. This will give them in round numbers $200,000, or ten times the sum the International Harvester Company paid Arkansas for violating the anti-trust laws several 7 onths ago. The Arkansas attorneys have estab lished headquarters in room 416 at the Stratford hotel, and they have been busy for the last week holding confer ences with witnesses.
