Few business men realize bow
many people read the newspaper
in which their advertisement ap-
pears. They sometimes print
5,000 dodgers, and although it
costs them more money than tLe
same amount of space in a daily
newspaper, they imagine it to be
cheaper. In the first place they
do not consider how many copies
of a paper there are that go into
the homes of the 1 eople they de-
sire to reach. The dodgers are
pripied and placed in the bands
of small boys whose only desire
is to get rid of them and draw
their pay for distributing them.
They will pass down the street
and poke one under the arm of
each person they meet, no matter
if that individual already bas had
a half dozen of them. The boys
pass on and the man throws the
dodger down and that is the last
of it. The streets are s00n cover:
ed with them and they are tram-
pled into the dirt unread.
A newsaaper 1s taken into the
home. Every member of the
family reads it and then it is
loaved all over the neighborhood
to ceople who are either too poor
or too stingy to take a paper.
~One subseriber said recently that
he did wish something could be
done to prevent people irom bor-
rowing his newspaper. He suid
his Sunday paper was not at
home long enough for him to
gvarcely look it over. Befo.@
night tour differeat families had
borrowed his paper and each
member of each family had read
ij through. He said of course he
could not refuse to loan them the
paper, but he did wish people
would subscribe and pay for theit
own paper. If this cue is a
sample, it will be seen that in-
stead of 5,000 readers for tnis
paper we have 25,000. In what
cheaper way can an advertiser
raach so many people? Many
wide awake business men have
trken advantage of this method,
aid they have found that it has
piid them many times the
anount of the cost of adyertise-
mont. It will be weil for those

SCENES iN GREECE. |

fhe Idle Peasant, the Omnipresent Dog
and the Village Inn,
Greece is not all Athens, ard the
peasant in the country village is a
very interesting person. What you
note about him most is that he does
nothing. Day after day | we we
walked over the country anv: found
him standing or sitting abc at.idle.
This used to be a surprise, but we
were always told that it was a holi-
day. Ji always is a holiday ona
saint's dey, and there are many
saintsT days in the Greek calendar.
How the land gets cultivated at all
is a marvel, but it does somehow,
There are no inelosures, or very
few. You are walking along inno-
cently and suddenly find yourself
striding over vine furrows. At
first you think you are trespass-
ing and try to go around, but
a little experience makes you bold,
and you find that you are doing
quite the right thing. You may be
attacked hy a dog, but that is not
because you are off the path, but
because you are a human being.
The Greek dog is a marvelous
beast. We have vivid recollections
of him. His one principle is that
man is his natural foe, and he
takes every opportunity of putting
his principle into practice. He gen-
erally appears from nowhere and
makes for you. You must get rid
of him quickly or he will call to his
aid brethren seven times worse than
himself and get rid of you. You
generally begin by shying stones.
These are always at hand in Greece,
Providence, I suppose, nevey' gives
an evil without a corresponding au-
tidote. This may drive him off if
he is alone and not very bold. If it
doesnTt, you must adopt more vigor-
ous measares. DonTt shoot him, be-
-cause there is a superstition that he
| has an owner, and that owner will
probably turn up at the critical mo-
ment and shoot you. But you may
stab him if you happen to be carry-
ing a large enough knife and have
| the skill to use it, or you may brain
.) him with your walking stick if it
If these fail, |
be heavy enough.
there is said to be one remedy left.
You may sit still, and he, too, will
sit still and look at you. This is
said to be infallible, but we never
had the courage totry it. It is no
doubt an extremely comfortable
feeling to be seated in the center of
a circle of canine admirers, but it
would be apt to pall after a time.
and Greece is not so thickly popu-
lated that you can depend on a res-
cue arriving within an hour, ora
day either.
~If you pass through the perils of
the way and reach the village in
safety. you will, of course, gu to
tho inn, cafe, what you will. Here
are all the men of the place, talk-
ing, laughing, driving away cares
which never come to them. The
prevailing costume is the long, gray
cloak of the shepherd, the most pic-
turesque garment in Greece. These
men will stare at you periaps a lit-
tle, but they will make you wel- j
come. They will all talk to you in |
their own tongue, and you will an-
ewer in yours, It does not matter a
bit that neither understands the
other. Both parties will be equally
pleased. We remember once mect-
ing an old shepherd on the slopes of
Hymettus. He stopped and entered
into a long conversation. What it
was about we do not know, but he
seemed well pleased, and after
about 20 minutes we wished him
good night in the only words of his
language that we knew. You will
probably meet the village priest
too. Heis only a peasant like the
rest, but he is recognized as a su-
perior being on Sundays... Then if
you are thirsty you driuk krasi, the
wine of the country, very mild and
very like sealing wax, At first you
will hate it, but after you have got
accustomed to it you will prefer it
to champagne, orT you may drink
~~mastichTT if you merely want to
be sociable. If you are wise, you
will cat. bread and honey, real Hy-
mettus honey, which the. whole
world cannot beat. And then you
will get up and go home, feeling
that there is no oneT you have met
like the Greek peasant."Pall Mall.
