NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING PAYS. ARGUMENTS IN ITS FAVOUR. # In the current issue of "The Organiser," on the subject of advertising, from the retailer's point Oil view, an expert says: "Let me give a few reasons why the newjSipaper is so strong- ly recommended and is placed first on the list of methodte of advertising. In the iirafc place, one of the strongest argu- ments for t.he newspaper is the all-important question of price. In no other wa,, can you get so many different advertisements before so many possible customers" at such a small cost- Your poster works well for you in the much- used thoroughfares, but its message is short and cannot bo changed without considerable cost and trouble; it can contain no arguments, no details, and does not reach the scattered homes. The booklet, catalogue, or folder gives you a better chance, for description and' illustrations, but the cost of producing, printing, and distri- buting them makes it prohibitive to sead them every day or even once a week. The newspaper goes into the home, and is read by tihe heads of the families—the buyers— at a time when they have leisure to consider and digest your announcement, and al,so at a time when the family affairs, the ways and' means, are being discussed. Another point is that the newspaper is perused and looked through for other reasons than the advertise- ments. It is usually kept until the purchaser lias time to give it attention, and so the ad- vertisement is forced on the mind at a leisure moment, and not put aside for such a moment— possibly to be forgotten—or lost, as may easily be the fate- of a. purely trade announcement, such as a circular, booklet, or even a cata- logue where the advertisement is the sole matter of interest- The important points for firms who are now using space are the causes of unsuccessful newspaper advertising, and how to correct and avoid them. The iirt and worse defect is the wording, and this fault is more fatal than any of tlhe rest*. An advertisement may be badly tset, in the wrong position, or poorly illustrated', but if the copy is right it will do good with anyone who does take the trouble to read it and will bring some results. The worst and moat general faults in the wording come under the following .bd6: -(1) Lack of information, argument, and reasons-; (2) broad general state- ments and (3) exaggeration- In writing copy you must remember first and last that the wordk you put down are your salesmen, they are out to sell your goods and create a favour- able impression about your shop and method of doing business- Like salesmen, these words musft speak good English and be 'casing. They must explain and give good sound commonsense reasons why the reader should dteal with you; they must not exaggerate, or be untruthful, silly, or merely funny. Tell the story about your goods in as bright and attractive a way as you are capa-ble of; where you have reasons for expecting custom, give them; take the per- ple into vour confidence, toll them how you "a.toll their intereets and tastes when buying your stock, how you cater for their comfort and convenience in your ehop, your method of get- ting- hold of new and up-to-date ideas and goodfe —tfhe hundred and one little points which in- terest the buying public. Get the personal note into these talks, let tihem feel that your and t-heir interests are common, and you'll soon get the paying results.

A POISON FACTORY which manufactures MILLIONS OF MICROBES. A most thriving manufactory for millions of itlh-e deadliest microbes, is the human body. One's organs can oinly do a certain amount of work, so if we give them too much to do, in the way of digesting unsuitable foed', or getting rid a, contaminated air, etc., and not taking enough, fresh air and exercise to help them in their functions; poisonous matter is not elimi- nated, and is re-absorbed into the system, countless harmful germs being evolved which do their evil work in rendering you run-down, nervous, prostrated, thin and1 anaemic, and bringing a-bout serious stomach, kidney and other trouble. When troubles such as the above do occur. immediate recourse should be mado to Dr. Cassell's Tablets, the new and effective remedy. lately made up from the prescription of a noted specialist and sold by all chemists at the nomi- nal price of lOcl'. This great family medicine, guaranteed pure and harmless, is in enormous d'emand juet now, and Ls every day effecting hund-redis of extraordinary cures in cases of nerve and physical exhaustion of every kind; and as a certain eradicator of poisonous germs and' matter and a builder up of sound healthy flesh, blood, bone, and muscle. Dr. Ca&selFs Tablets are superior to anything else.

The Clerk read a petition from the Pickering Rural District Council with reference to the powers of riparian owners to reetrain Distract Council from takiag water for a pubic water Mr John Roberts said he considered that they should in every way protect water supplies, as it was not right to take a farmer's water, nor to aliow such bodies alO, tho Birkenhead Corpora- tion to come t-o Walice for water. On the motion of Mr Evans the letter was laid on the table. FOOT BRIDGES AND PARISH COUNCILS. A letter was read from the Abergele Urban District Council complaining of the dangerous state of the footbridge at Plae Iraf, the repair of which they considered the Parish Council should take in hand. Mr William Jones Paid the Llannefydd Parish Council had to look after footbridges and he proposed the matter be deferred to Abergele Parish Church. This was carried. TREFNANT WATER SUPPLY. A letter was. read from. Mr Richard Williams with reference to the water supply at Trefnant, and asking that, ag the Council were contem- plating extensions, they should provide sufficient water to enable him to place 'bat»ie in the twelve houses lie intended building at Trefnant, the plans for which had been pasted. He said he coul d not buiLd the houses without baths, which he considered were necessary from a sanitary point of view, The Surveyor explained, that he had intended taking gaugmgs at Trefnant, but had not been able to do so because the Rhy1 water engineer had not been able to spare a man when wanted. It was decided that a water gauge be pur- chased. Mr Salusbury asked whether they could not obtain a suppiy from the Henllan works. Mr Morris said it was a waitcr worth con- sidering, and the clerk promised to obtain in- formation. A discussion arose as to what charge should be made on a resident who hid been using water for cattle, and on Mr Evam> being asked how much per tap he paid for catt.e, he re- plied that he had no taps for cattle; tho only tap he had was the tap of the beer barrel, (laughter). ■, Mr John Roberts suggested that they ask the person to give each councillor a supply of to- bacco at Christmas (laughter). The. Clerk was directe-d to ascertain the, charge per head of cattle for water from the Rhyi Coun- cil. LLANDDULAS HYDRANTS. The Cverk reported that the Local Government Board had consented to issue an order permit- ting the use of hydrants at Llanddulas. Al- though the mains were small the hydrants would be of some service. Mr Cross said, Llanddulas people were anxious to have hydrants. THE ABERGELE FOOTPATH DISPUTE. EXTRAORDINARY REMARKS BY COUNCILLORS. The Clerk reported having received a letter from the Denbighshire County Council stating that a record had been made on the minutes as t-o what had been dbne with respect to the footpath dispute at Abergele. Mr Grinmey added that, the County Council had1 not ex- pressed regret at the action they took. The Chairmaji: The Parish Council sent a very flattering letter to'the County Council. Mr Evans: You know the: Abergele Council, Mr Chairman (laughter). J Mr John Roberts: Yes; we don't Jiave idiots on the Abergele Parish Council. The Clerk read an accoun.t of 213 17s 5d from Mr Mill ward, being out of pocket expenses con- nected! with the, dispute, and it included charges for photographs and a journey to Lon- don and an4other to Chester. The charge for the journey to London was 95 10s, and Mr Mill- w.ard was away several days. Mr Evans: It is very <iheap. I had £ 10 for going there once. Mr John Roberts: But everyone does not stop at the Hotel Cecil (laughter). Tho Cierk also produced a bill for £10 581 6d for plans, tracings, etc., from the Abergelo Sur- veyor. The Chairman asked if the Abergelo Parish Council did not ask them to get the obstruc- tions cleared away, and thatbei!ig so. were they not bound to give, all help possible The Clerk replied that all the Parish Council had to do was to call their attention to the ob- struction on the footpath according to Act of Parliament. It was the duty of the Rurail District Council to make inquiries. Once Mr Millward, as olerk to the Parish Council, made tho representation, his duty ceased, and he was not bound to go further into the matter as clerk to the Parish Council. Mr John Roberts: But why pay another sur- veyor a bill? We have our own surveyor. Mr William Jones: We have nothing to do with it. Mr John Roberts: We have our own surveyor, and we should have engaged him. The Clerk: You can scarcely expect Mr Evans to do the work. Mr John Roberts: We would rather he did it than a stranger. Why not pay Mr Evans in preference to giving money to a stranger? The Clerk: We ought to have the plans and tracings, so that we can judge as to their value. Mr Evans: What is the total expenditure? Mr Wm. Jones: We have paid Mr1 Joseph Lloyd £55. Mr Mark Cross: Do you think we are re- sponsible for this bill? We did not enga.ge either Mr Millward or the surveyor, and if anyono likes to take an work like this they do so on their own responsibility. I think the Parish Council should pay them. The Chairman: I am of the same opinion. Mr John Roberts: There is no doubt that through Mr Millward and what he has done we are out of the bother. The Chairman: No, ncx Mr John Roberts said that Mr Millward had ,not had a penny for his services, and but for him they might have gone to law. They should pay him what he spent out of pocket. The Clerk said that Mr Millward in his letter stated that he had only sent in an account for what he had spent. He had had a great deal of work, and it had taken up so much of his time that he did not know what to charge, but would leave it. to the Council. The Chairman: Mr Millward should be paid by the proper authority, and that is the Parish Council. Mr John Roberts: No. The Chairman: He was the Parish Council's servant., and was bound to supply us with what information we required. Mr Evans: I think the Rural District Council should pay it. Mr John Roberts: Having given you notice the Parish Council had nothing more to do with it. It was for you to fight the matter, a.nd you meant to fight it. You had your own solicitor, and the Parish Council's clerk has been worklpg for you and your solicitor. The Chairman: Everyone was working for the Abergele Parish Council. The Clerk: Where should we have been if Mr Millward had stood on one side and did nothing? Ho could have refused, as his duty as clerk to the Parish Council ended when he had made representation to this Council. I am under the impression that Mr Millward should be paid his out-of-pocket expenses. Mr Wm. Jones: And should pay the District Council for bringing us into the footpath mess. The Chairman: I propose that we defer this matter for a month for the clerk to make in- quiriep. Mr Cross seconded, and it was carried. ABERGELE AND LLANSANNAN ROADS. The Clerk reported that the Denbighshire County Council declined to grant £10 per mile for Towyn and Llansannan roads. Mr Wiil-i. Jonea: It is a. great shame. HOUSES IN OUT OF THE WAY PLACES. A discussion arose as to granting water cer- tificates to houses built at Rhydfoel, Llanddulas, and while the Medical Officer said it was ne- cessary to have water supplies there, Mr Mark Cross said it was unfair to saddle Llanddulas with the expense of water supplies to out of the way places. If people chose to build houses there they took tho risk. No action was taken in the matter.

PERILS OF NOVEMBER FOGS. How to escape Pneumonia and Pleurisy and cure Bronchitis. Novelil-ber ie inva,riably the worst month in the year, with its damp, cold, dammy, and lung-chiling fogs- It is all the more perilous since the system ha6 not yet become accustomed to the cold days, and is less able to resist lung inflammation and throat ailments. Sufferers from chronic bronchitis d'read November as tho sure harbinger of that winter cough This year, doctors are prophesying an abnor- mally bad season for- pneumonia and pleurisy, and experts say that -the vyeather will be ex- cessively oold from November 12th to the end of March. Peps, the wonderful handy medicine in solid tablet" form—the medicine that goes straight to the lungs—are a sure antidote to the throat and chest troubles so prevalent in foggy November. In the homes, of the people these wonderful tablets have brought weak -chested men, women, and children triumphantly through all the rig- ours of I-aist winter, free from all coughs, colds, and throat troubles.

PHTHISIS AND DIPHTHERIA IN FLINTSHIRE. At the meeting of the Holywell Board of Guardians on Friday, the Chairman (Mr J. Prince), in going through the relief lists, referred to the large number of young men in the parish of Llanasa suffering from phthisis, and asked the relieving officer if he could account for the prevalence of these cases in such a fine healthy district. The Relieving Officer (Mr R. T. Price): It may be the lead mines and the quarries. The Chairman: There must be some local cause for it. Mr W. Roberts: It is lead mining. Mr Batters: I havo heard it is dust from the quarries. There are two young men dying of consumption, and it is put down to that. Dr.. Williams (medical officer of the Holywell district) reported that during October he had re- ceived, notification of 37 cases of infectious disease, of which 31 were cases of diphtheria in the Ffynnongroew and Mostyn districts. He had ordered the Ffynnongroew schools to re- ,main ,closed. Mrs Batters: Is it really- diphtheria? rlbe.nsr'edor: Diphtherct-ic sore throat.

THE RIVER DEE, A WELSH CLYDE. At the meeting of the Holywell Rural Coun- cil on Friday week, the Inspector (Mr John P. Jones) eubmifited a statement he had' prepared fcfr the County Council in connection with the Canals and Waterways Commission. Tho state- mjeint showed that there we,ro large sections of reclaimable land from Conniah's Quay seawards down 'ib-o river Deo to Gronant, near Pres- tatyn. The works necessary to reclaim and canalijse tho river and erect embankments or cops, could be carried out with little greater expense' than manual labour. The ground would then be admirable for large works, and equal to any work done on the Clyde. A trunk railway line and a deep water channel would run parallel with each other, and within 3 stone's th,roi,Y.

COLWYN BAY RATEPAYERS AND THE T.A.A. DISCUSSION A.T A PUBLIC MEETING. TWO PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS. COUNCIL INVITED TO LEASE PROMENADE RIGHTS. At the requ?st of tne Colwyn Bay Town Ad vcrtising Association, Mr John Williams, J.i' cnairman of rne Urban District Council, convened a. pubhc meeting of ratepayers in the Council Chamber on Tnursday evening for the purpose of considering the- best means of obtaining iunds for the advertising of the town as a heaith and pleasure resort, and to receive suggestions as to the best means of making known tHe advantages and attractions of the piaco to prospective re- sidents. There were between fifty and sixty people pre- sent, but the numerical weakness of the gather- ing was counter-balanced by the fact that it, was thoroughly representative of the inhabitants of the town. The Chairman, in opening the meeting, stated that during the three years that the Advertising Association had been in existence it had done a great deal of good work which had brought forth good fruit. Colwyn Bay's charming situation and natural advantages were such that they only needed to become known to attract visitors. During the first year the Association had an in- come of JS55, during the second year F,214, and during the third £ 465. This showed that the re- venue of the Association was increasing, but a much larger income wag required to carry out effectively its objects. Mr J. F. Francis., the chairman of the Asso- ciation, said that the work had hitherto been done by a few, and they were becoming a little tired, as the "willing horse" was being given too great a burden. He suggested that each rate- payer should make a point of contributing a small amount towards a work from which all were like- ly to benefit. Councillor Edward Allen, who followed, said that the Association had decided to forward a copy of the guide they had published to 1000 medical men in London, and also 1000 in Man- chester and Birmingham, with a statement as to the advantages of Colwyn Bay meteorologically and otherwise. A OLUNTARY RATE SUGGESTED. Councillor G. Bevan suggested that, as the Council could not expend money out of the rates on advertising, a voluntary rate should be adop- ted as a means of inducing every ratepayer to contribute his quota to the Association's ex- chequer A separate slip stating the amount of the voluntary rate on the basis of a penny in the pound contribution might be delivered to the ratepayers by the Council's collector along with the official demand notes. That course would ensure that every ratepayer would have the claims of the Association made known to him (hear, hear). Mr J. Dickon, another member of the Coun- cil, was unable to agree with Mr Bevan as to the practicability of the voluntary rate, but he sug- gested that the Council might let, at a nominal sum the right to give entertainments on the pro- menade. This concession the Association would ue able to sublet to entertainers, and, employ the surplus revenue, in advertising the town (hear, hear). Mr Taylor suggested that a small clearing should be made at the lower end of the Pwlly- crochan Woods, in which a bandstand might 'be placed, for daily concerts in the season. That would be a great source of attraction, and pos- sibly of revenue also He went on to complain of what he said he thought looked like the land- ing-place of an aeriaJ flight. This was the new cooling tower at the electricity works. It was a conspicuous eyesore—about as ugly an erection as they could have. Mr Dicken objected to Mr Taylor, going out- side the purpose of the meeting to deal with that matter. The Council had dispensed with the cooling tower as long as they could. They knew it was ugly, but if they had not provided it some of them would have been without water next year (hear hear). The Rev. Wm. Hughes, another councillor, said he had felt from the beginning that the Associa- tion was doing good work, and he was convinced that whatever became of the suggestions before them that evening, it deserved tho support of the townspeople generally. NO TIME FOR BIGOTRY. Councillor Wm. Davies, in the course of a char- acteristic speech, recalled the controversy pre- vailing a few months ago because scholars attend- ing the Higher Grade School had been trained to perform a musical cantata in aid of the funds of the T.A.A. He was very sorry the committee should have been criticised over that matter, be- cause they could well rely upon Mr Griffiths and Mr Glynne Jones, in whose charge the children v-ere, not to introduce i-nything into the child- ltn's work which was out of keeping with good tfWte (heir, hear). This was no time for such bigotry and narrow niindednese (hear, hear/. He was strongly of opinion that every house- rclder in Colwyn Bay should interest himself tracti,il,v in the work of the Association. Mr Hands aLso made an appeal for support to the Association. A gentleman whose name did not transpire, speaking fiom the rear of the room, said that when he cam 3 to Colwyn Bay in 1906 he had been warned that he vould probably be infected with the "Colwyn Bay fever." "And I got it quickly," procsedcd the speaker midst laughter. "The result was that. I at c.nco decided to reside here" (applause). After speaking of "the in- comparable beauties of the place," he remarked with emphasis: "This place is not half so well- known as it should be. People need only come here once, the fever will do the rest" (hear, hear, and laughter). Another gentleman whose name was not an- nounced advised the adoption of the house to house canvass system, and added that he did not approvo of the voluntary rate suggestion. Mr Davy, dealing with a remark which had been made in regard to the bad condition of the roads in the town, said he had frequently brought strangers to Colwyn Bay from different parts of the country, and in almost every in- stance their first comment was, 'What beautiful roads you have;' and 'how beautifully they are kept' (laughter). Exemplifying the dire need for advertising the town. Mr Davy said that while in London recently his acquaintance asked him (Mr Davy) where he lived. "In Col- wyn Bay" was the re pi 3". "Oh," exclaimed the man, "I have always thought I would like to go to Cornwall." His friend was under the impres- sion that Colwyn Bay was a bay off the Cornish coast (laughter). Proceeding, Mr Davy said he had no hesitation in saying that Colwyn Bay was far ahead of any seaside resort, he knew, with the exception of its accommodation in the way of amusements (hear, hear). With reference to the house to house canvass suggestion thrown out, an experiment in that direction had already proved a failure at Colwyn Bay. The only way by which the ratepayers could help the Association was by "putting thei rhands in their pockets." Adverting to Mr Dicken's suggestion itibat the Promenade be let to the T.A.A. for sub-letting purposes, Mr Geo- Bevan eaid this would be a method of defrauding the ratepayers- Mr Dicken disagreed, and remarked that the only thing the local authority had to do was to satisfy the Government auditor. What would it matter to that gentleman whether the Coun- cil g.JIt C20 or JB200 for the use of the Promen- ade in that way ? OFFICIAL OPINION. Mr James Amphlett (clerk to the Council) eaid that the voluntary rate collection business would savour much of "sending round the hat." In ■ all his experience he had never known such a system carried out, and they could not %nq the rate collector to collect a voluntary rate. With regard to the Promenade there was no doubt but that when the Council applied to Parliament about ten years for their special Act they asked for powers to levyarate for advertising the town, but in that they had been unsuccessful. Nevertheless, ho thought the fact that they asked for it would justify the Council in giving the Association the best aesist- ance in their power (hear, hear). The Council were, of course, empowered to levy a penny- rate for the maintenance of a town band. Councillor Wrn. Davies pressed Mr Amphlett for an answer as to whether the Council could hot the P-romenade to the Association a-s sug- gested- M,r Amiphlett replied that it would be quite oossible for the Council if they thought fit to lease a portiOin of the Promenade to the Asso- ciation on such terms that the Association might derive a revenue from it to help them in carrying out tiheir objects (hear, hear). Mr Amphlett added that the Association, in ar- ranging terms with their tenants, should stipu- late in their agreement that they advertised their entertainments in such papers as would prove u £ C!iiiil to the town, net forgetting the local IlJOwpapcrs (hear, hear)- Mr Hill suggested' that those present should give a practical demonstration of their sym- pathy towards the Association by promising there a-nd then to subscribe towards its funds (laughter, and hear, hear). Mr Thompson (of the Prudential Assurance Company) thought it would be a good plan to organise a band of lady canvassers in aid of the funds. Councillor E. Allen said this had already been tried; in fact almost, every suggestion thrown out that evening had been already' carried into effect. The speaker referred to the picture poster recently produced by the Asso- ciation, and remarked that it would oorot thou- sands of pounds to proceed with the sane method of advertising if it were done on the same scale as at Blackpool- Ho susnorted the voluntary rate suggestion, but the onlv effectivo method of collection would be through the town ra.te collector. RESOLUTIONS. Mr p. Foulkes then moved "that we as rate- payers assembled a.sk the Council, through the Chairman, to take inifro consideration tihe

The Clerk said ho expected to have had the information from the Master that' day, but it was not ready. This was also deferred for a month. MORE EDUCATION—LESS GOOD ORDER- Mr Batho said the Visiting Committee abso- lutely declined1 to take any responsibility as re- gards the non-existence of communication be- tween the vagrant ward and the porters room- If anything- occurred there. during the night the Board would be held respon&ible- A murder or suicide might occur in the vagrant ward, and 110 official would know anything about it until morning, w her eats for £ 2 electric bell communication could bo fixed u" The Master agreed that something should be done. Not long ago a man had been taken ill at night, and the inmates of the vagrant ward became so exasperated at not being able to got out through the locked doors that they broke the door down. Had the man not been attended1 to that night bo would probably have died befotre morning. Mr Wm. Jones: I have been here 25 years, and I have never heard of a man killing him- self there.
