Milk Food
How It Secured Its
Position as
a Prime Favorite
By LOUISE B. CUt'IMINGS
1i44NN•4404+4N4N14i1•o
Dennis Malony and his wife, alien,
were taken ill about the same lime.
Both being unable to earn anything,
kind friends made up a purse for
them and sent them articles that they
needed. But Dennis recovered ' -his
health slowly and Ellen was a long
while getting well. Finally both were
able to be out again, though Dennis
was hardly fit for work. So EIlen took
the burden upon herself again and
earned enough to keep the wolf from
the door. After a while a baby was
born to the couple, and the difficulty
was enhanced not only. by Ellen's be -
Ing unable to go out to work, but by
her not being able to nurse the little
fellow, Milk must be purchased, and
there was no money with which to
buy It. The doctor who had attended
Mrs. 1llalony, being loaded down with
samples of prepared milk for babies,
supplied some of the deficiency with
these gratuitous preparations,
"How did you get 'em, doctor'?" ask-
ed Dennis, puzzled.
"The manufacturers send them to
me with the request that I recommend
them,"
In the sample cases came advertise-
ments in great superfluity. Dennis
read them and looked at the pictures
of fat children that had been brought
up on them with much interest, Little
Dennis thrived on what the doctor
gave his parents for awhile, then the
supply was exhausted.
"What'll we do now, Ellen?" asked
the husband, despairingly.
"I'll tell you, Dennis," replied Ellen.
"We'll let 'em take a picture of the
child and publish It for more milk,"
"That's a good idea, Ellen; only I'm
afraid Dennis isn't beautiful enough."
"Beautiful enough! What d'ye mean,
Dennis? He's the most beautiful boy
in the world."
Dennis bad his doubts, however, for
the baby resembled him, and he had
never been called an Adonis.
"We haven't the money to pay for
a picture to take to the men that makes
the milk, Ellen."
"What'll we do?"
"There's a young fellow on the floor
above that has a machine for takin'
pictures, We'll get him to come down
and take a photygraph of the baby,
and I'll take the picture to the man
that makes the milk, and mebby he'll
give us a few bottles for it."
The young man on the floor above
was appealed to. When he saw the
baby ho was surprised, for the boy was
really not a prize infant. But, refills.
Mg that it would not be in good form
to say so to the parents and being
ready to photograph anything, beauti-
ful or homely, he took the picture, and
when It was developed the mother was
in ecstasies over it and Dennis declar-
ed that even if the boy did resemble
his father the picture was not so bad
after all.
Ono morning the manager of Busby's
milk food was sitting at his desk when
Dennis, unannounced, approached and
said:
"My little boy has been talon' your
milk, and it's put ten pounds o' the
finest flesh on to him ye ever seen. I'm
thinkin' that ye might like to print his
picture and send it out with your milk."
Dennis drew the photograph of his
son and handed it to the' manager,
who looked at It and with difficulty
suppressed a desire to laugh. Then
glancing up at the proud father be
asked, by way of chaffing him, what
he wished for the right offered. Den-
nis replied that a few bottles or milk
Id keep the child alive was tell he ex-
pected. This won the heart of the
manager, for be was a hied man, and,
calling for a dozen bottles of his pre-
pared milk, he gave them to Dennis.
telling him he would consider the
proposition. With this he dismissed
the happy Dennis, who went back to
Ellen loaded down with milk enough
to last till they could devise some oth-
er scheme to carry little Dennis far-
ther on in his world's pligrimage.
"I'm thinkin Ellen," said Dennis
the next morning, "that the reason
Mr. Busby don't sell mote of his milk
by puttin' it into the papers is because
he don't know just how It helps the
babies I'm goin to write an ad meseif
and take it to him girb, him the free
use of it for ben' so fund in givin' us
the milk."
"We owe It to :aim, Dennis."
Dennis sat down and after an hour's
hard work finished his task. This was
what he had written:
"Busby's prepared milk is the fineet
milk for babies of eli of 'em. If you
don't believe it fist go and see Mrs.
Dennis Malony, 75 West Ninety-fifth
street, and see the One child that has
been brought up on it. The baby has
gained a pound"a day on it for a mouth
at a time and looks like a genuine lit.
tle angel that you see in ell paintings."
Dennis gave the advertisement to his
wife to read, and she said be 'hadn't
said half enough good things about the
food. She suggested that he show it
to Tom Murphy, the young man who
had taken the baby's photograph, to
see if It was all right. So Dennis took
it upstairs, where he found Tom and
!salted him to edit his production. Tom,
who had a keen sense of humor and
was a bit of a wag, said it was a One
Seaforth.
Joseph Noble died at the home of
his son-in-law, Mir, J', B, Thompson,
on Wednesday of last week at the
age of eighty-two, The deceased was

soon as he was gone Tom brought his
genius to bear on it and produced the
following:

its ivory, whiteness is olbtained not
from any deleterious ingredients, but
is distilled from myriads of white roses
grown on the Busby farm under the su-
perintendence of a graduate of en ag-
ricultural college. The fatty sub-
stances- used in, the food are obtained
from. the blubber of walruses shipped
on trains running on the lee of Bering
sea; thus preventing delay and insuring
the delivery of the blubber in the best
condition at the mill: factory.
:Some care instances of development
of children using Busby's rood are tes-
tified to by mothers. Charles Deitrieh
when seven months old weighed only
twenty ounces. After taking a bottle
of Bushy's milk he gained, so much in
one night that in the morning his:
mother mistook him for the five-year-
old son of her next door neighbor and
sent him to his supposed home with a
lump of sugar. At the end of a year,
having drunk 200 bottles of Busby's,
be had gained a pound a day.
"Benny Rarkaway, who weighed
only two pounds at birth. was blown
about to every draft, keeping his moth-
er in
ooth-grin constant dread lest he be earned
out of the window. Ten bottles of
Busby's food gave him so much flesh
that, his Father having tossed him play-
fully, when the child came down was
crushed by the enormous weight,"-
When this production was shown to
Dennis he asked its author if it was
not somewhat overdrawn,
"Overdrawn?" cried Tom. "Suppose
It MI That's the art of writing an. ad.
If you -write it' in plain, unvarnished
terms nobody will notice it. I'll guar-
antee that it will increase the sales of
Busby :s milk enormously."
"All right," replied Dennis, "I'll take
it to Mr. Busby."
"I wouldn't do that," said Tom.
"Yon had better insert it yourcrelf. I'm
a reporter for a newspaper, and I can
get it put in at cut rates."
Dennis gave him a carte blanche to
insert the ad. and went down to his
wife to report what he had done, add-
ing that he was going to make Dir.
Busby's fortune for him on account of
his kindness in giving them the milk.
The baby's milk ran out one day,
and Dennis, thinking that Mr, Busby
might have beard from his advertise -
meat and op account of increased Salsa
be disposed to glue him some more
food, 'went to the gentleman's office
And stood as before beside the desk,
"Mornin', sir," said Dennis.
The manager looked up from hun-
dreds of letters and seeing the man
M whom he had given some of his
milk food asked him what he wanted,
"Have you heard from the advertise-
ment?" asked Dennis.
"What advertisement?"
"The one that came out in the pa-
per."
The manager looked et Dennis as if
groping for something, then suddenly
exclaimed:
"See here, my man, did you have
anything to do with that game that
was played on me in a statement got
up to ruin my business?"
"No, sir; put in an ad. at me own
expense for the favor you done me for
given me the milk for me little baby."
The manager stared at Dennis for a
time, then said: "I don't know that it
will do any harm after all. It 'may
call attention to my goods." He took
up a handful of letters from the pile
on his desk and ran them over. One,
evidently a lady wise had never had
children or run a dairy, wrote to know
whether the cream was left on the but-
termilk

er, a nurse, entered a protest against
using spices in baby's food. "I should
think," she said, "that it would injure
the child's stomach." A young man
who said that he was a student of
chemistry asked for the process by
which the white substance was distill-
ed from roses.
There were on the desk a number of
comic, papers containing illustrations
of thmarvelous developments of
children who had been fed on Busby's
milk, One was a picture of a very
small man being crushed under an
enormous baby; another, a drawing
of a woman giving a fat child a lump
of sugar, while beneath were the.

about to put a patent washing machine
on the market offered $500 a month
for the services of one -who had so
cleverly drawn the public attention to

Dennis went home with all the milk
he needed for the baby for a month,
and the next week Mr. Busby sent
for him and, after telling him that he
was run down wills orders for his intik
food, gave him a permanent job ata

finest flesh on to him ye ever seen. I'm
thinkin' that ye might like to print his
picture and send it out with your milk."
Dennis drew the photograph of his
son and handed it to the' manager,
who looked at It and with difficulty
suppressed a desire to laugh. Then
glancing up at the proud father be
asked, by way of chaffing him, what
he wished for the right offered. Den-
nis replied that a few bottles or milk

manager, for be was a hied man, and,
calling for a dozen bottles of his pre-
pared milk, he gave them to Dennis.
telling him he would consider the
proposition. With this he dismissed
the happy Dennis, who went back to
Ellen loaded down with milk enough
to last till they could devise some oth-
er scheme to carry little Dennis far-
ther on in his world's pligrimage.
"I'm thinkin Ellen," said Dennis
the next morning, "that the reason
Mr. Busby don't sell mote of his milk
by puttin' it into the papers is because
he don't know just how It helps the
babies I'm goin to write an ad meseif
and take it to him girb, him the free
use of it for ben' so fund in givin' us
the milk."
"We owe It to :aim, Dennis."
Dennis sat down and after an hour's
hard work finished his task. This was
what he had written:
"Busby's prepared milk is the fineet
milk for babies of eli of 'em. If you
don't believe it fist go and see Mrs.
Dennis Malony, 75 West Ninety-fifth
street, and see the One child that has
been brought up on it. The baby has
gained a pound"a day on it for a mouth
at a time and looks like a genuine lit.
tle angel that you see in ell paintings."
Dennis gave the advertisement to his
wife to read, and she said be 'hadn't
said half enough good things about the
food. She suggested that he show it
to Tom Murphy, the young man who
had taken the baby's photograph, to
see if It was all right. So Dennis took
it upstairs, where he found Tom and
!salted him to edit his production. Tom,
who had a keen sense of humor and
was a bit of a wag, said it was a One

:Some care instances of development
of children using Busby's rood are tes-
tified to by mothers. Charles Deitrieh
when seven months old weighed only
twenty ounces. After taking a bottle
of Bushy's milk he gained, so much in
one night that in the morning his:
mother mistook him for the five-year-
old son of her next door neighbor and
sent him to his supposed home with a
lump of sugar. At the end of a year,
having drunk 200 bottles of Busby's,
be had gained a pound a day.
"Benny Rarkaway, who weighed
only two pounds at birth. was blown
about to every draft, keeping his moth-
er in
ooth-grin constant dread lest he be earned
out of the window. Ten bottles of
Busby's food gave him so much flesh
that, his Father having tossed him play-
fully, when the child came down was
crushed by the enormous weight,"-
When this production was shown to
Dennis he asked its author if it was
not somewhat overdrawn,
"Overdrawn?" cried Tom. "Suppose
It MI That's the art of writing an. ad.
If you -write it' in plain, unvarnished
terms nobody will notice it. I'll guar-
antee that it will increase the sales of
Busby :s milk enormously."
"All right," replied Dennis, "I'll take
it to Mr. Busby."
"I wouldn't do that," said Tom.
"Yon had better insert it yourcrelf. I'm
a reporter for a newspaper, and I can
get it put in at cut rates."
Dennis gave him a carte blanche to
insert the ad. and went down to his
wife to report what he had done, add-
ing that he was going to make Dir.
Busby's fortune for him on account of
his kindness in giving them the milk.
The baby's milk ran out one day,
and Dennis, thinking that Mr, Busby
might have beard from his advertise -
meat and op account of increased Salsa
be disposed to glue him some more
food, 'went to the gentleman's office
And stood as before beside the desk,
"Mornin', sir," said Dennis.
The manager looked up from hun-
dreds of letters and seeing the man
M whom he had given some of his
milk food asked him what he wanted,
"Have you heard from the advertise-
ment?" asked Dennis.
"What advertisement?"
"The one that came out in the pa-
per."
The manager looked et Dennis as if
groping for something, then suddenly
exclaimed:
"See here, my man, did you have
anything to do with that game that
was played on me in a statement got
up to ruin my business?"
"No, sir; put in an ad. at me own
expense for the favor you done me for
given me the milk for me little baby."
The manager stared at Dennis for a
time, then said: "I don't know that it
will do any harm after all. It 'may
call attention to my goods." He took
up a handful of letters from the pile
on his desk and ran them over. One,

children or run a dairy, wrote to know

er, a nurse, entered a protest against
using spices in baby's food. "I should
think," she said, "that it would injure
the child's stomach." A young man
who said that he was a student of
chemistry asked for the process by
which the white substance was distill-
ed from roses.
There were on the desk a number of
comic, papers containing illustrations
of thmarvelous developments of
children who had been fed on Busby's
milk, One was a picture of a very
small man being crushed under an
enormous baby; another, a drawing

for the services of one -who had so
cleverly drawn the public attention to

Dennis went home with all the milk

and the next week Mr. Busby sent
for him and, after telling him that he
was run down wills orders for his intik
