yROFITABLE PUBLICITY.
Summer Advertising.
: _ " i Ff
BY NATHTL @. FOWLER, JRZDOCTOR OF
: PUBLICITY.
Folks eat in Summer.
Folks wear cTothes in Summer.
Folks sit down in Summer, anc they
walk, and they bieak dishes, and they
use up ip Summer as much as they use
in Winter.
If tolks eat in Summer they must
have something t» eat, and if they have
somcthing to eat, and so iong as_ there
is a prejudice against stealing, they
must buy that something.
If folks wear clothes in Summer,
they must wear out these clothes, and
if they. wear them out, they must go
naked, or have more clothes; and if they
have more clothes, they must basgihote
clothes.
It folks buy things in summery be-
cause they have to, and if stopfes mast.
be kept open, is there any reason why
stores shouldnTt advertise when folks
eat things. wear things, wear-out
things, and buy things ? |
Perhaps it 18 a coincidence, but the
man who does the most business in the
Winter, andin the spring, Fall and
Summer, and the man who. makes the
most money in the long run, is the man
who advertises in all four of the four
seasons, and thinks more of increasing
his advertising than he does of cutting
it. |
In the Winter it is generally cold
enough for activity, and there are thea-
tre parties, and card parties, and entef-
tainments of every sort.
Folks read in Wimer, out they do
vther things first.
Folks read in Summer, ard do the
ether things afterwards, because it is
easicr to read thas it is to perspire, and
they read everything from the country
newspaper to the circuT postei.

gard the Democrats will have rather
thé advantage. Formerly the diffet-
ences between the two partics were not
so distinctly defined. Now the line of
demarcation is plain, the issues are tan-
gible, and for the first time in many
years the Democratic party is in ad-
vance. It willbe aygressive, not de-
fensive ; defiant, not supplicating. It
will gather round its banner the masses

Hoke Smith Remgned.
9-The Post
Washington, Aug.
this morning confirms the report that
Hoke Smith has resigned from the
cabinet, in an article from which the
following is an extract : oSecretary
ke SmuithTs resignation as a memter
of the cabinet and the head of the In,
-terior Department is said to be in the
| Tarde of the President:
oThe authority for this statement is
@ close personal friend of Secretary
Smith. As the storyggoes. Secretary
, ~Smith forwarded his resignaticn to the|
President at Gray Gables on the same
day that he outhorized the publication
in his paper, the Atlanta Journal, of
© the editorial declaring that paper would |.
support Brvan and Sewali, although
deprecating the platform upon which
they were nominared.
i
oIn this letter to the President, jit is
said that the Secretary announeed the
position that he was going to assum
~nted ouc that he had, during.the
campaign in Georgia, given a solemn
pledge that he would abide by the ac- t
tion of the Chicago convention, and}1
then went on to say that he felt that
he could not, in justice to the President
longer; remain in his cabinet.�
(
The Post then speculates as to what
| the President 1s going to do aboutit,
and concludes that if the President
continues in his present attitude of
non-action, Smith must serve out his
time in the cabinet, but that if he
tak.s either of several suggested cours-
es unfavorable to Bryan and the Chica-
go platform, the Secretary will insist |
upon enforcing bis resignation, and will
return to Georgia and take an active
part in the campaizn.

The Russian ~~kakochnik�T is one
of the most charming articles of
adornment in Europe. Itoriginated
among the Muscovite peasant. wom-
en, but has been adopted during this
century by the ladies of the court,
who have elaborated itinto a red
velvet cap embroidered in precious
stones. It is worn with the red vel-
vet court mantle and jeweled stom-
acher brought out on state occasions,
and more than outrivals the plumes
and veil worn at the English court.
The Spanish mantilla is well
known and has bcen somewhat vul-
rarized on the comicstage. The na-
tional dress of Roumania has escaped
that fate. Carmen Sylva always
wears it when at home. It consists

made with as few folds as possible
and somewhat resembling the Egyp.

four plaits loosely tied with chains
of .sequins and the feet are incased
in crimson kid slippers strewn with
seed pearls.
In Poland princesses and peasants
wear around their throats several
rows of huge coral beads,-and so
loath to part with these supposed
bringers of good luck are they that

and diamonds she carries her coral
beads in. her pocket.

LUCKY PIGS"UNLUCKY OPALS.
Former with Two Legs No Good and Lat:
ter for Folk Born in October. a
They"the girl with the violets and
the girl with the feather boa"came
into the public tearoom and settled at
one of the small tables. She of the vio-
lets studied the menu. It was her
treat. She of the boa drew her glovés
off and then began to study her neigh-
bors. Present y the order was given.
It was not for a chocolate eclair and a
nickle, by the way. Then she of the
violets began to draw off her gloves
her companion chattering about others
at luncheon in the room. Suddenly
she stopped her chatter and gasped:
oMargaret! What a beauty. Where
did you get it? ArenTt you afraid to
wear it?�
oWhat? Oh, my opal? Why, Char.
ley brought me the stone from Mexicc
last spring, and mother had it set for
me at Christmas. No, ITm not afraid
to wear it. ItTs perfect nonsense about
vpals being unlucky. I donTt believe in
such things, anyhow. ITm not the least
bit superstitious.�
oWell, I wouldnTt wear an opal for
anything, unless [ had been born in
October. It may be nonsense, but
since Christmas youTve lost your
purse"�T
oOnly a dime and a glove buttoner
and some samples in it!�
oAnd your watch; and two stick
pins, to. my certain knowledge; and ]
believe it was that opal!�
oNonsense! It wasnTt the opal at all.
If, was my pig.� .
oYour pig?� |
oYes. My lucky pig! You know
Katharine gave me a dear little one, cu:
out of ebony, for Christmas, and on
New Year's day I took it off my watch
chain to show to some one, and be-
tween us we dropped it; and as |
stepped back to see where it had
fallen I stepped on it and broke off two
of its legs. Wasn't it awful? Of
course with only a two-legged pig ITm
bound to have the lamest sort of luck
this year.�
oThat was hard luck. But I thought
you weren't superstitious.�
oWell, ITm not. But everyone knows
about lucky pigs. And the idea of blam-
ing it on my opal. Why, opals canTt de
