POOR ADVICE
_ 119; Woodeworth, leader of the, new
political movement, the Commonwealth
Co-operative Federation, la reported as
proposing, in an address at Galt the
ether'dey, that manufacturers ''double
wages and start a boom.'.
Like many other people, Mr. Woods -
worth appears totes* the Idea that
manufacturers and other employers of
labor have unlimited means and ORD
pay a elan $4 a day as easily as they
can pay $2. But manufacturers and
other employers in many owes are as
hard yet. to. it a4 gninodj_ else to keep
(,ming nerd pay waged at the exiattng
rata. The result of following Mr.
Woodaworth's advice would be a boom,
all right-. boom In bankruptcy pro-
o•ee4ings.
If the manufacturers had the name
ry to spare. it would be better for
them to spend It by doubling their
staffs, rather than d,wdrling the wages
of the preset, staffs. The additions to
the staltanight have nothing W do, but
their 'r►agew" wou�s'a said "anti* -
eon quickly. whereas the man whose
wages were doubled would put some of
it away where_ it_erellid do little or no
rood.
if inera6et•tars-doubled wages,
prices of the 1 asnufaetnre1T
wined go apatin-higher. still further
aggravating the striation ire which the
farmer finds himself. unable by reason
of the Mw price of his products to tiny

which remain on a higher prier basis.

tOttawa Journal)
—Jury duty would be less unpopular 11
courts had a little more eonsideratioe
for the comfort and convenience of jur-
ors. Most jurors serve at a financial
Iacridee. They are guarded like prig -

doubt all this is neesaary, justified by
experience. But often men on the Jury
panel are eompelled to remain within

day or two. A little more thought for
the' Indivfdeal would make for greatersmoothness in operation of this part of
the Judicial machine.'
WHERE THE MONEY WEDT
t e-itirea the other -day.: dlsag�
rhe -sin rnu sal happenhitgii 01 -MTV last
three years, propounded the question:
[Where has all the money gone?
1t is an interesting eubjert, 1f aiao
with many people a sore one. A man
who was worth $111,IN*1 iu - 11r.'J) is
worth. say, 13,00)1 today. [Where hate
the other $7,000 gone?
Well, in a good many rearm it never
existed. The man nary have owned
stocks which were quoted on the mar-
ket at prkees that would make his hold-
ings worth $10,0011. Itut the value
wasn't really there, els wan quickly and
definitely demsmntrated when thous-
ands of people in those ''crash" days of
1828 tried to realize on their holdings.
Here and there, no doubt, were men
who "played gate" on the market—
turned over stock* at aaa-1 profits and
put their rash winnings away in sone+
este places and still have theme.That,
is where some of tis fvnen.rloney has
gone.
Another portion of it in represented
in ears. radios and other things par-
ehased during the boom. People who
were snaking neutey In the market—
or thought they were--purebawetl
things they could never have paid for
out of their regular earnings. Some of
them went on expeettslve holiday trips
- there Were lots of ways of spending
money in those clays.
A good deal of money was spent,
too, tit a1aries and cosnmislons of
brokers/. In rent of hmkers' offices, and
generally In the earrytng on of the
work of selling and !plying honde and
Mocks.

An old story that seems to support
teat contention regarding advertising
Is that respecting an Ataerfea$ •1f6:1
w-anted to place a certain commodity in
the homes of the nation. He had con-
siderable capital at his command, and
began a great campaign of advertising.
For months be persisted, but without
success. Presently nearly all his money
was spent, but. because he had faith In
his product and was not going to give.
In until 1t was certain that his endeav-
ora were hopeless. he continued h1* an
nonneementa. At last every penny of
his loose capita/ was gone, without
sales resulting. Then he sold his house
and ererf stick that he possessed, bor-
rowed what money he could from his
friends, and made one last attempt.
Just when the laat cent had gone and
he was thinking he had tailed, from
North, from Routh, from East, from
neat, by wire and Tetter, orders came
teeming In for sore, end grosses. Per-
slstence had told,
if that story deserves to he told this
next one shemld he: "Yea," said the
works manager to the ehemist, over
the Rotary luncheon table, "there's no
qnestion about It that advertising does
bring reanlfs. rye just had It proved
to me." "Indeed?" said the chemist -
"Yea," said the works manager. "i ad-
rertisal In the evening paper yesterday
for a nlghtwatchman, and during the
night the offer was ransacked by burg-
lars:" And this one: A country news-
paper editor offered as a proof of the
efficacy of advertisements a letter

Sheffield firm advertises the fact that
they are makers of "eecentrlc blades,"
