SUNDAY, JULY 30, 1903. CHANCE SHOTS SEASIDE DIRECTORY. r 'HOTELS., THE MORNING ASTORIA N ASTORIA, OREGOJf, ' . By the A Press Agent! Duty. The' leading show firm,, such a Bar Bum and Bailer's Circus, etc., and will known theatrical troupe engage tlie ser ioes of a capable newspaper advertis ing man to serve out the "dope" whether paid for or free, to the papers and other media. That they do not rely upon the services of most any man in the company ho ean give a little spiel, termed ad vertising, in writing, show their ap preciation of the va!w of advertising space. An ad-man know how much he tan and ought to get for nothing, while ke also knows the exact value of space, when it hat to be paid for. Thus we find acme of the cleverest ad-men on the boards, or rather their wark on the bill boards, etc. That reminds me of the fact that on or two of the principal circus establish menu have decided to practically abol- th biU-board publicity and lay more tress on their newspaper advertising They figure that when they only show in a city a few days, it is absolutely essen tial that they must reach the heart of the people most emphatically, and there ia certainly no better medium than the newspaper which the ubscriber is wil ling to pay for and for which he or she is anxiously waiting, just about the time the carrier is supposed to 1 there. The circus man has recognised (hat it pay to reach the homes at the same time as the local newspaper. A Better Salesman Pays Better. Only few days ago a prominent mer chant was approached on the street with questions involving the scientific train ing of his salesmen. The clever dealer replied that he did not consider it wie for him to educate his men, for as soon as they became better salesmen they would Jeave his employ for a position with some other firm in a larger city. Before the dealer realized that he had ver reached himself, he was told "not if you do as wll by your men as others do by theirs." Affronted by the cutting but truthful remark, the merchant says, 'That's my business." So it is, Mr. Merchant, and it's only by chance that the ad-man heard of this matter. But it is certain, nevertheless, tha tthe better men and women, both morally and mentally, you help your employes to be , the better and easier they are to keep. For good men are usu ally well paid and remunerative posi tions, all other things being equal, are not thrown up haphazzard. Seventy- 4 dollar clerks may be getting all they are worth, nor are they always getting an incentive from you to make them selves selves worth more to you, while fl-SO-men soon may out grow their sal ary and deserve more, being worth more. Whiskey is a stimulent in many sick eases, while a few voluntary dollars may prove a stimnlent to many a clerk. Seen and Beard In Daily Walks. It is not surprising to meet one ex sition visitor today who grumbles about this, that or the other thing, while an other who took in the sights there, can not sing enough the praises of the pro- Business Diplomacy as Used by a Book Agent THE book agent bad managed to gain an audience wltb the lady of the House by sending np an In nocent looking card. He no sootier be gan to state bis business, however, than the lady called to a servant and said: "James, show the gentleman the ioor." "Thank you, James," said the wily sgeut In a kindly tone, "hot It will be iuiiiexsnary for you to trouble your self. I saw the door as I came In, and I must say It is a hnitflaome thing, In dicating a home of culture and refine ment. Now, madam," he continued, turning to the lady, "as I was saying, Su order to introduce this grand work we are offering a limited number of copies to the loading society people of the city at the sietihl price of only f 10. This Is the first cull I have mude, as your name heads the list" Note. He got the f 10. A Word of Advice. Blddleconib wax holding bis eldest son Id earnest converse. "My boy," he said, "I am filled with anxiety when I think that you will 0011 make choice of a wife." "I hare not done so yet, father," the young man replied. "What sort of wife would you suggest?" The older man looked around cau tiously. - "5fy son," he said, "If your father's advice is worth anything to you, let J uie urge you to seek a woman who hriKu't the Independence, the positive uss, the general characteristics oi your mother." He was interrupted at that moment by a light footfall and realized that his beloved helpmeet bad entered the rojui. "No, my soa," be continued, "do not hoie to Cud another woman like your lujtiier.

This reminds me of a little incident which I witnessed ill the Imperial ho tel lobby in Portland recently. Some ladies who had arrived from the East could not he accommodated which infor mation wa conveyed to them by the gin cious chief clerk. lXniglas R. Ijdd. to gether with genial Harry Hamilton takes eare of the host Mentschan's guests. Supposing the information handed out by the big" lad settled the matter for the ladies, and having obtained my room key, I trned toward the elevator, when gracious I-aild Mid to tha ladies: "Would not you step into our bus ami let our man take you around from place to place until you are satisfactorily peltinl!. Just tell him where you want to go. It shant cost you anything for our efforts for we want you to he satisfied where- ever you stop. The ladies, after a little discussion, accepted the courtesy offer ed and the ad-man is willing to venture" the assertion that the Imperiu! Hotel lost nothing by the kind action of th clerk, customary as it is for them to tw courteous. - It pay to be courteous in any bui ness. In the long run it pays best and the average clerk of good hotels shows ap preciation of scientific salesmen quali ties, when he acts accordingly. Advance in Modern Merchandising. On his rounds the ad-man often finds something new. Ever since he came lie re he has admired th aggressive method of a leading store in this city and but a few days after his arrival, he became convinced that this same firm ha dthe making of a big dry goods store in them Being informed that the Foard 4 Stokes Company had been very successful as grocers and general merchants, the ad man could not but see additional reasons for continued growth. Let's go over the ground a little. The drygoods depart ment has grown considerable since I came here. Clever buying, good adver tUing and prompt selling have gone hand in hand to make it grow. A convenient stair,ae now leads to the crockerv de partment in the basement, an improve. ment that is appreciated by shoppers, Ribbons and other goods are daily steal ing room from the grocery department which will soon be housed in another part of the building when the room now used by it, will be annexed by the dry goods department. Quick-firing giins are constantly in operation here and thus it is that Professor fiunn, a graduate of leading art schools in Chicago and el-ewhere, has been brought here for a limited period at great expense to lend strength to the advertising done by this enterprising firm. Professor Ounn will use the dry goods window as his studio where he will dispense some of his knowledge in portrait enlarging at a nominal price for the benefit of the Foard Stokes Company patrons. guns are rarely If ever duplicated.- Cleveland Plain Iiealer.
