OUR ADVERTISERS. de-de- M. O. By F. M. B.) A lady friend of mine told another lady friend of her's within my hear ing the other night that she would bet that "Observer fool laid awake nights thinking of some new stunts on ' advertising and talked in his sleep through the day: time." She " allowed it was some scheme to get the people's money for space and the public and the advertiser could get along if nobody ever adver tised. She wore a skirt cut decol lette on both ends and had a red ribbon wound around a queue picked from the cranium of a dead China man and was unconsciously pulling off some advertising "stunts" of her own. One of her gentleman friends told me the same night that she was considered a "gold brick" among the boys and' had proposed to seven different fellows during the present leap year. His goods were tinsel ajul did not appeal to the rising generation.. The. more she advertis ed the less were her chances. She could never become a Wannamaker or even a Meir-Frank. Everything she wore was on the surface. The poor thing will probably end her career on the Siwash reservation. She had no business to advertise in the first place. There are others some at tempting .to conduct a business with out the-' goods. Of'course, they are not here in Dallas. They belong to Tomorrow carriers will have no vn- are made up of soap-box artists who call around occasionally to "borry" a chew of "terbaccer."
