his “horse sense” deeply cultivated !
The antmal is named “Dandy,” and is l

Dandy will Jollow his master any
where, but if told to remaln at a

told to do so, and then will go to
Mr. Huff as far as he can hear his
name called, He is very fond of
Bweels, and when asked how many
pieces of candy he would 'like to
have, always strikes the ground with
his hoof several times.
Like Bucephalus of old, Dandy will
allow no one exéept his master to
ride him.. And for the last nine vears
Mr, Huff has been riding Dandy in

since learned the traffic regulations

Fisherman Nearly Dragged Over
as Leviathan Scratches
Back on Pier.
I.OS ANGELES, Feb. 27.—There
wasroffered at the long wharf above
Santa Monica the opportunity to
catch the biggest thing in the ocean.
Byt no one did it. On the contrary,
all the fishermen who lined the pier
agree that they got off lucky by not
being caught themselves.
What they didn’'t land was a fifty
foot whale, an ojd and evil fellow
covered with Dbarnacles, He came
bumping into the pier and nearly
sheok off the {ringe of fishermen
Their hooks caught in the whale's
hide, became tangled and, during the
moment of greatest confusion, the
leviathan rose and spouted and
drenched the anglers,
Samuel Seaman of Venice was
nearly dragged off the wharf when
the big hook on his line snagged the
whale's body. He was only saved
when he cut his line. Later the
sportive mammal called at Ocean
Park and saluted the pler with a ton
of water. blown into the alr. Then
he disappeared.

no longer be neglected. There is no more important subject to be con

meeting, with the hope that it will help get it before the people of Atlantz
and the whole South. .

VJ HAT is there about your store thatz
: makes it different than the establish
ments of your competitors-—that causes pa
trons to prefer letting you serve them? .
If your store should burn down tomor-§
row you could open up in another establish
ment and these same patrons would eome to
you—still give YOU the preference. Why?
Good will — prestige — individuality—
CHARACTER OF SERVICE.
“If [ could only get more people into my
store,” you often catch yourself thinking, “I
knowy I could please them so well they would
come back again.” i gl
Advertising is nothing more or less than
attracting new people to your store. /
The more you can make your advertis
ing reach out into the community and ex
press the individuality, advantages and
CHARACTER of vour store the more op
portunities you will have of making new
patrons,
*** * %
Then here is another point—advertising
makes selling easier. It tells the reader
about the product, so that your salesman
does not have to give as much time to eon
vincing the customer of the virtues of ‘the
produet (he can devote his time to suggest
ing another purchase and thus increase his
sales).
Advertising does another thing—it re
minds the readers of the newspaper of things
they ought toshave, or will soon need—and
that YOUR store is the place to go for them.
Advertising takes the name that is over
vour store and places it in the homes of the
community daily.
It is like having a corps of the right kind
of people call at every home foi you every
morning. ‘
And how cheap all 6f these advantages
* are—when measured in dollars and cents!
