A Girl Tramp.
Possessed of a wanderlust that neither
her family nor alienists who havs called
ln consultation are able to explain. Miss
Mary Patterson, a wealthy young woman
of Pittsburg, has been forcibly brought
back to the home of her mother after a
period of wandering lasting from Thanks
giving day until sha was taken ln custody
at Waukesha, Wis., August 14.
During her long nine months' absence
the girl, plentifully supplied with money
from tha ettate of her father, according
to reports from Waukeeha and other elites
and towns In tha middle west, scorned
the comforts and the luxury of Pullman
and dining cars and chose the favored
abode of every true hobo tha box ear,
well filled with damp excelsior and a
handout wherever It could be procured.
There were no home troubles to explain
her wanderings. Mrs. Mary Patterson, her
mother, Is a womanof wealth and unques
tlonel social position, as well as being an
Indulgent parent. The only explanation
tha alienists have is that the lure of the
load culled the girl and she answered.
The estate of her father was settled
several days before Thanksgiving day.
The girl was at her home the morning on
which the preFident of the Unlted States
rommands that the people of the nation
give thanks, but when the family board
groaned with turkey and cranberry sauce
and the daughter was called to the table
thre was no retponse. She had departed
for parts unknown.
For months no trace of the girl could
be discovered, although detective agencies
were employed In the case. A few days
ago. however, her mother received a long
distance telephone call. The voice of her
daughter could be plainly dlslinguixhed
She sent her line to the family, but refused
to give them any Information an lo her
w hereabouts.
Inquiries at the telephone exchange
proved that the message came from Chi
cago. Last week the girl appeared at Wau
ketha and registered at the Spring City
hotel as M. E. Graham of Clinton, la.
The attention of the hotel attaches was
attracted to the young woman by her
peculiar actions, among them being a
propensity for sleepieg on the flor.r of her
room and bringing up food from the dining
hall to eat cold.
The police authorities were notified

We Seek the Advertisers
Who Want Light
We seek mail order advertisers who are anx
ious for a way to reduce their selling costs.
We seek general advertisers who want to
find ways to get more results for their money.
We seek the wise men the good business
men the men who want actual proofs.
We will tell these men how, with absolute
certainty, to pick out the agent who can outsell
the rest
Then, if the agent fell down, the advertiser
found himself tied to a failure. There was
nothing to do but quit.
We have abandoned contracts.
No client of ours binds himself to remain
with us. None states how much ite will spend.
We abide by results.
If any agent can prove the power to outsell
us, our client is free to go.

We appeal for good business methods in ad
vertising such as you apply outside.
Employ salesmen-in-print on just the same
basis as you employ salesmen-in-person.
Accept no unproved boasts. Sign no con
tracts. Put it up to the men to make good.
That is the only way to place men on their
mettle to keep them at constant white heat.
Cling to them as long as no other men can
outsell them. But always leave room to give
the better man a show.
But we urge the demanding of actual proofs.
Any agent who can outsell another can provo
it beyond any question.
He can prove it without asking you for any
commitment. He can prove it, if you wish,
while most of your advertising still goes
through other channels.
We 6hall welcome the time when advertisers
in general awake to this fact, and employ it-
Advertising has not been largely done on
that basis.
The advertising agent has demanded a con
tract, binding the advertiser for from one to
three years.
The contract was blindly made made before
the agent had started to show results.
There is a way to prove if your advertising
can bring better results than now.
There is a way to know if any agent can out
sell the one you employ.
The way is easy, and the result sometimes
has proved to be worth a fortune.
If you are interested, simply write us J
"Please explain the way."
