THE WHEAT MARKET LOXGS STAMPEDE AND MAY IS .3 CENTS OFF Liquidation Caused by Report That Diiliith Wai Sending Wheat for slums. Chicago, May 10. The report that 600,000 bushels of cash wheat was coming from Duluth to fill sales on the May option caused ft stampede of longs to unload. Result was a ue cline of 3c a bushel at today's clos lng ns compared with the close of of yesterday. May option started with a brisk up ward swing with shorts Inclined to cover In the early trading. While this was occurring the price advanced to $1.15 5-8 or 1 6-8c a bushel higher than yesterday. The net decline for the day was therefore 4 6-8c. Foreign markets were very weak. and this added fuel to the already bearish note. It Is stated that Rus. slan bankers are forcing wheat out of that country, thereby weakening the English trade. Liverpool opened today with a loss of 7-8 to 1 l-4d and closed 8-4 to l-8d under yesterday. Foreign crop reports state that conditions In the United Kingdom and ' France are not so favorable for wheat 1 but elsewhere in Europe the grain is showing good growth. European vis- ' lble supply of wheat shows a decrease of 4,720,000 bushels. Kansas City reported a poor de mand for cash wheat and a loss of a ; cent a bushel is shown in the price ' there.

Lady Constance Richardson Makes Snug Sum Out of the Bounce. London. Many titled women made money In the rubber boom. Lady Ollphant, whose town house has been closed for some time, cleared $350000 and is now having the place repaired and decorated. Lady Constance Richardson Is also reported to have made a snug sum. It will aid her If she really desires to start a. boys' school. There Is strong likelihood, however, of her going on another Am erican tour and giving the most recent repertoire of dances. Her sister, the Countess of Cromarty, as well as her husband. Is greatly displeased at her appearance in puDiic, ana me isie King's refusal to nave ner appear ai pnnrt almost caused a DreaK-up in the family. St Petersburg. The finest archl tectural monument In St. Petersburg is St. Isaac's cathedral, begun under Nicholas I In 1858. The architectural commlsison has now discovered that the cupola Is cracked In several plaa . owlnar to the rottenness of the beams. 1 The center of the church will now be partitioned off, lest pieces of the stucco work should fall during the service and produce a panic among the congregation which on great fes tlvals numbers 18.000 persons, Will Your Ad. SolE Goods ? If after reading it over you can't answer " Yes1 Write it over again ADVERTISING TALK NO. 4. It pays to advertise, but all advertising doesn't pay. ' ,: Success in advertising is largely a question of selecting a sub ject which is most timely, of appealing to human interest. A story is told about a Russian merchant who used his forth coming marriage as a basis of hia advertising one day and drew a patronage that resembled a run on a bank. His announce ment, which was certainly original, read as follows: "The reason why I have hitherto been able to sell my goods so much cheaper than anybody else ia that I am a bachelor and do not need to make a profit for the maintenance of a wife and children. , "It is now my duty to inform the public that this advantage will shortly be withdrawn from them, as I am about to be mar ried. They will do well, therefore, to make their purchases at once at the old rate." The result was such a run of business that in a few days the shopkeeper had made enough money to pay the expenses of his wedding on a very lavish scale. Get into the game like this fellow did. Hit the nail on tho head. Put forth the most pertinent and interesting subject you can think of in connection with your business affairs in your advertising, and you will be sure "to get returns. Of course an advertisement as radical and ridiculous as that of the Russian merchant isn't advisable, but I am merely using it for illustration. Some merchants think "People aren't intereste in my af fairs ; if they want some of my goods they will come in and buy them." That is just where they are wrong. The American public is a reading public, and it has develop ed a thirst for something new. It will be interested in your store and your goods if you tell about them in an enthusiastic and an interesting way. An advertisement is nothing more nor less than a story. The most interesting stories in the paper whether they appeal to one's sense of humor, to one's heart, to one's higher mentality or to one's pocketbook are read aloud at the breakfast and the dinner table. A great many advertisements are read aloud in the home. Do you suppose yours are? If not, now is the time to remedy the difficulty. Whatever you do, be up-to-date. Americans love progress. Be like the hotelkeeper in a little village in Ohio, who changed the name of his hostelry, if you will. - A traveling man who had not visited the hamlet for several months, dropped in' one day, and ejaculated with surprise: - "Why, when did you change the name of this hotel to the Taft house?" . , "Right after we built on that big bay window," replied the proprietor. This doing of things that are appropriate to the occasion is a mighty important thing. Fortunately the idea of leaving an advertisement stand in a newspaper day after day and week after week without being changed is fast being tabooed. To be up-to-date, to make your advertising read, it is neces sary to change it frequently. And when you do change it, put something in it that is worth while. : After you have written an ad, ask yourself the question: "Will it sell goods?" If you can't answer yes, write it over again. The newspaper manager likes to see you take pains with your advertising, because he knows if you do you will reap results. If your advertisment pulls more business, the newspaper will have demonstrated its worth. It will be of inestimable value to you, if you just make the proper use of it. There is no better medium throtigh which to reach the buy ing public than the newspaper which is circulated regularly in your city, but you must do your part in the campaign by keep ing your advertisement filled with Hve, virile copy. Then you will begin to realize what advertising is really worth. You will make it pay. CROWDS PRAV AS PRIEST ADMINISTERS LAST RITES Louisville, Ky. While more than a thousand people looked on, some cheering and others kneeling in prayer the Rev. Charles Raffo was lifted eighty feet through the air by means of rope ladders to the fifth floor of an Incomplete elevator to administer the Inst rites of the church to Martin Wig genton, who was dying on the con crete floor.
