NAS A NOVEL ADVERTISING IDEA
Vlilludelphlu Tullor Sentli I.nuiUul 1. U

A Philadelphia tailor has evolved a
novel Idea in advertising. He sends
through the mails, unsealed, white
boxes of pasteboard, and each hox
proves, on being opened, to contain
srnne six or seven peanuts. The re
cipient of this cannot help but won
der. There is nothing but his own ad
dress on the plain little box and with
in there is no card nor anything else
to show him whence the odd packet
came.
“What fool joker,” he mutters, “has
been sending me peanuts?” and he
opens one to find, neatly folded in the
empty shall, a little poster reading,
“It's no joke. We make the best fit
ting clothes in Philadelphia. New
spring styles now ready.” Then fol
lows the tailor's name.
The nuts, as an examination proves,
have been neatly split, their contents
removed, the advertisements inserted,
and then the shells glued together
again so skillfully as to defy the
joint's detection. It is a novel idea,
says the Philadelphia Record, iu ad
vertising and it is making a good deal
of talk.
War of Extermination on ftatfl*
The discovery of the part played by
the ship rat in the carrying of plague
from port to port has resulted In a war
of extermination on the part of all
progressive port sanitary authorities.
In the port of London the rats have
been destroyed literally by tens of
thousands. A recently issued report
states that between Nov. 24 and Dec.
31 six cases of plague and thirteen
cases of enteric fever were dealt with
and during that period 10,164 rats were
destroyed. The medical officer of
health in a further report for January
says that 2.203 ships were inspected
and 7,626 rats destroyed. The total
number of rats accounted for since
the comencement of the raid has
amounted to considerably over 100,
000. In one large steamer which was
disinfected on account of smallpox no
fewer than 1,000 dead rats were found
after the process of fumigation.

turning home without merging them.
A Swedish prince is to resign all
claim on the throne of his country to
marry an American girl. It is a fair
presumption that she is worth the sac
rifice.
Switzerland enjoys the unenviable

who has attended school since 1892
without being either absent or tardy
once, must be a disagreeably conceited
lad to know.
The Michigan man who ate mince
pie, went to sleep and had a vision
that enabled him to strike oil ought

for falling behind in their rents.
Joe Jefferson ran three-quarters of
a mile the other day to escape from a
crowd of women who wanted to kiss

man put up a sprint that would have
been wonderful even for a profession
al.
President Roosevelt has never been
suspected of being overcareful where
his personal safety was concerned, but
if Santos-Dumont has secured a prom
