DOWN IN CALIFORNIA thoy arc demonstrating tho vnluo of tho "Rhow-mo" plnn of exploitation. Tho commercial bodies of Los An golcs nnd San Dlogo counties taking nolo of tho communal ndvantago that ban accrued from oxhlblts at tho various expositions which hnvo ad vertised local products and re sources, hnvo concluded that a con tinuation of such oxhlbltu In t ho principal cities or tho East would moan thn mnlntennnco and ovon tho incronso of the ndvantago gained nt tho expositions, snyH tho Portland Telogram. Accordingly, tho two counties In conjunction, ns wo undor utnud from reports of tho matter Hint hnvo nppearod from tlmo to time, hnvo nssombled a traveling ex hibit, which has been sent nbrond l.ndor tho direction of competent won, and which makes such impres sion and brings such results as It was expected tb do. Tho report of James A. Jasper, directly In chnrno cl tho Snn Dlogo exhibit, ns gleaned from a communication to tho Union of that city, Is Interesting and to cho point. It nppenrs that tho exhibit opened nt Pittsburg, and of tho oxperlenco nt that plnco Mr. Jasper writes: "I opened tho lecturo hall nt Pittsburg with nn audience of COO, and i proof thnt I didn't queor myself I will say that I novor had less than 1,000 thoreaftor, and sometlmos my nudloncos ran ns high as 1,500. By tho tlmo wo visit Chicago, moro than 1,000,000 persons will hnvo seen our exhibit, and moro than 25,000 will hnvo henrd our lectures." Mr. Jas por says furthor, speaking of his Intor oxporlonco: "Wo hnvo exhibit oil to delighted crowds whorovor wo hnvo gono. Thoso elghteen-hour stunts, including Sundays, have tax ed us to tho limit.

At Richmond, Intl., nnd nt Pittsburg, our exhibit wns tho star nttrnctlon, nnd n flno clnss of people turned out to Inspect It. 6ir trip has turned the oyes of hundreds of pooplo to tho Pacific coast." Tho proof of tho pudding Is In chowlng tho bag. It U a homely old saw. but It applies with peculiar por tlnenco to this mattor of c.ommunal exploitation.

In olden dnys, under olden condi tions, Btore ndvortlslng was n very noBl'felble thing. It consisted of cither the dull, formnl nnnouncc mentH of tho conservative stores, or of tho hysterical, misleading and "stampeding" stylo of advertise ments resorted to by tho Irrespon sible stores. In neither enso was ndvortlslng important to tho house wife, nor or tho unturo of "sorvlco" to lir In plnnnlng her purchases. W thin tho thrco decades Just past ndvortlslng has evolved from these olden conditions Into its pres ent status of store-service. No wo-t'iwhllo storo would now think of omitting it, or of limiting It too much In the scope of Its usefulness. It would be ns wise to iry to do busi ness In quarters wholly Inndequato or with no delivery system, nor dorks. For tho ndvortlslng Is as much a part of storo sorvlco ns any other phnso of store-keeping. Women hnvo learned, and aro learning, thnt only stores thnt nro ndequntcly advertised aro ablo to glvo real values aro ablo to com peto In vnluo-glvlng with other stores thnt advertise. Tho storo that does not advortlso is not conlsderod at nil except ns a moro neighborhood shop, to which wo nro driven by ne cessity somotlmes always to our loss. Womon nro learning that tho ad vertised store, soiling grcnt quanti ties of goods, is ablo to soil them nt n much smaller por-snlo profit than the unadvertlscd store, which must mnko its profits from n small numb"? of snlos. This truth mnko3 store-advertising of real Importance to every woman to every buyer-Exchange. JWITHTHE t T0ASTANDTEA GOOD EVENING. USEFULNESS.
