CHANCE SHOTS
By the
.. SIMPLE, EFFECTIVE DISPLAY.
One of the most effective displays of
inexpensive millinery, ever seen ly the
el man in any city to the I'nion, is now
shown in the window of the Fair Mil
linery Store in the Star Theater Build
ing. It is exquisitely dainty and the
firm deserve eredit for it, especially le
cause the window is small and it takes
quite a little thought to produce a good
effect without crowding the window full
of goods. The Lewis and Clark Fair
hats are very appropriate at this time.
O
. A GAS AD THAT PULLS. .
The Cit (sens' Light and Traction Co..
of Salem, Oregon, used over a half page
in last Friday's Statesman to advertise
gas ranges and incidentally to boom the
nse of gas. There ean be no question
that this ad, which was well written,
will bring returns, especially as the(ly original feature in their fine, new
company's ad is to be found in the store. It is a regular smoking room,
Salem papers quite frequently, always
with- interesting copy

NOTHING SMALL ABOUT THIS.
The Tradesman, which recently pass
ed into the hands of Orno Strong, says
that: "Tlie Schwabacker Co.. Walla
Walla, general merchants, has arranged
to give its salesmen an opportunity to
visit tlie Portland fair under very fav
orable conditions. The concern will
close its store from July 1 to duly 5.
and has chartered a special car in which
employes will be taken to the fair citv."

THE LOST CHORD.
There is an opportunity for some local
firm to advantageously advertise farm
ing implements, wagons, etc. It pays
to bring these' articles before the read
ers of a good daily paper. Not infre
quently the farmer, like others, delays
the purchase of new implements, merely
because he hasn't read about the ad
vantages of discarding the old one.
Some day lie notices a hay-rake or a
cream separator or something else ad
vertised in t'le mail-onW magszlr.? and
when he needs such an article, t.ie
farmer's ready money goes to other
eities, while the merclutnts at home for
get to cater to his wants. The Mitchell,
Lewis 4 Staver Company of Salem, Ore
gon, use their home papers quite fre
quently with half-page announcements
of this class of goods.

THERE ARE NEVER TOO MANY.
When edvertising journals are as good
Printer's Ink. there are never too many.
It is published every week, and costs
nly $2.00 a year. It is the most useful
magazine, a retailer ean buv. It never i
jars the nerves,, while it often nerves
you op, to boost your bnsinesa where it
most needs boosting. The address is 10
Fpruce street, Xew York. Some retailers
subscribe for their clerks in order to
brighten things up.
DRIVE PEDDLERS FROM BUSINESS.
Mr. Orno Strong says in West Coast
Trade:
. "While it is apparent that from a
competitive standpoint the grocer and
provision dealer can not be expected to
take independent action in the matter
of outside idiows they are to be eon
mended for the progressive and public
spirited stand they are taking through
their associations to abate a practice
which must be more or less detrimental
to the public health. And as there is
no sacrifice without a corresponding
gain, it may be that the grocer and pro
vision dealer stands to be benefited by
the abatement of this practiiv, for in
any reform of this nature it should not
be forgotten that foodstuffs are con
stantly carted about the streets in
open wagons, subject to all the contain
nations of the city air and streets. One
of the liet methods of meeting the com
petition of the street peddler is to keep
the fresh vegetable and fruit stock in
the stoles in Mich a condition that con
tamination is imMihlc. ''
O
A CROP TAKES TIME.
Xo man expects to gather grain a
week after the seed i sown. Vet some
advertisers expect a big harvest a day
after their ad appears for the first time.
O
APPROPRIATE WINDOWS.
A few of Astoria's stores took occas
ion to put into their windows a little of
the Decoration day spirit. The Bee
Hive had in a window the wax model
of a young lady dressed in mourning
with a few of the nation's (lags. In the
windows of the Morse Department store
and Herman Wise a few flags were
also noticable, while C. H. CK.)er'
large windows were for tlie occasion
backed with extra large flags of the
United States. The entrance was also
draped in a similar manner. The un
usually large flags of good material pro
duced quite a good effect. The Foard
4 Stokes Co. had in one window the
counterpart of a mound (grave), very
effectively strewn with greens and flo.v-
Ad Man.
... voting lady was shown in wax, anpar
ently bringing fresh flowers to the sol
dier's grave. Another wiudow contain
ed an Indian teut and uarup-ftre effect
which rivalled the pioneer days.
O
A HELP TO ADVERTISERS.
White's Sayings. puMUhed in Seattle
j Wash., is a handy little monthly publi
eat ion which will prove useful to any
1 advertiser. It's worth the subscription
I price, if only to know what Rusty Mike
has to say in it. The cost is only 2J
cents a year. Cheap as dirt, yet better
than niost things for that little money.

SOMETHING NEW.
According to the Grocer and Country
Merchant, the B. Beroeieh Cigar Co., of
Oakland, Cal., have installed one entire
SxlO. furnished in the most sumptions
stvle. All the metal work will 1 of
brass finish, and the flooring will be of

DID YOU SAY BRICK BLOCKS?
Connell is reported to be the first
town in Franklin county, Wash., to
have a brick blink, which is known as
the Staples block and is constructed of
red brick with white brick trimmings
and large plate glass windows. The
Bank of Connell brick building, which
is under construction, will lie the sec

A DRIVE.
The "special bargain'' or drive has its
uses which the most conservative deal
er can appreciate, even when the special
cut is made by some competitor. When
it is used by one's self, its objectionable
features are hard to perceive.
The chronic cutter may or may not
be a nuisance, but the "specials" or
"drives" used l retailers, especially by
department stores, are capable of dnitij:
much good. Take cases of over pro
duction, when the markets are slump
ing ami the stocks of psnls affected are
hrinking in value every week. When.
at such times, a big purchase is made
and the lot is offered at a big reduction
from the regulur price, the effects are
usually seen in a quick recovery of mar
ket conditions and the enhancement of
the value of the same kind of good is
each retail store.
SKIN TORTURES
Thousands of wretched ceocle are miser
able driven almost mad by the terrible
itching and burning sensation of Eczema
and other skin diseases; many imagine
they are suffering from bad blood, whea as
a matter of fact the blood has nothing 10 do
with it These awful tortures are caosed
by little germs that attach the skin exter
nally, which can be rooted out in a borrr,
leaving the skin dear, soft and healthy.
Such misery now cleared away as surely as
the ton shines above. Not merely atlesspt
ed, not a matter of improvement merely,
not a temporary relief bat a clearing of it
all away absolutely and permanently.
