PHILOSOPHY OF ADVERTISING Chanerlnar Methods an Index Changing- Business and Social Condition. of The study of advertising seems to have a perennial charm for the 'American pub lic. Hardly a month passe but some magaslne' finds a new and inviting phase of this modern art to lay before Its read ers. The solid literature of advertising la also growing rapidly. It is risky nowa days to venture upon literary allusions. A professor of English says that he never dares to adorn his lectures to his students with any quotation older than the comic papers of the previous, fortnight. But no difficulty Is felt on this score when one draws on advertising phrases. Only men tion "fifty-seven varieties," and the ready laugh follows. Advertising Is the one form of present-day business for which nobody ever suggests publicity as a remedy. By its very nature It muBt avoid the secrecy and quasl-conridenlal methods in vogue elsewhere. For this very reason, as Mr. Frederick Dwlght suggests In the Yale Review for August a survey of changes In advet Using methods affords an index of changing business and social conditions of the country at large. The technique of the subject is almost as extensive as that of scientific agricul ture. While volumes have been compiled on the art of writing advertisements, ac countants have propounded schemes and schedules to measure the profit and loss resulting. Commercial schools and col leges devote courses of study to the sub ject. Indeed, the capstone of the curricu lum of a well known business college Is an elective upon "Window Dressing." "The Psychology of Advertising" has served as a door of approach for the empirical study of the mind of th mob how Its attention Is caught its interest enlisted, It humor tickled, It will moved. The economics of advertising has opened up one of the dis puted questions of the day whether ad vertising Is a parasitic industry or whether it yields a really productive service. Proverbially, "It pays to advertise." Bui this Is only the Individualistic view. Per contra. It Is argued that for society as whole It costs to advertise. Perhaps the commonest aspect of adver tising has to do with Its humorous side. Nothing Is so current with the public as an epigram converted Into an advertisement, unless It be an advertising cartoon which speaks a language more universal than the fondest cultivator of Etperanto ever as pired to. Here, too, there is a reverse side to the medal. Only recently Governor Hughes signed a messege punishing ths dissemination of Improper Intelligence which sought refuge under the shelter of trade publicity. But what shall be said of the Invasion of the privacy of life by using without permission or pay a photograph for bruiting abroad the merits of some proprietary article? Fortunately, th black-hand" methods of publicity print ing blacklist and boycotts of antagonistic firms seam likely to get a black eye In the courts. Gompers Is still out of Jail, It Is true, but his methods are at a discount. The wanton Invasion of the walls of the subway stations remains as yet unre pulsed, but wa may hope for better things when the new lines are built Mr. Dwlght. In the article referred to, shows admirably how the study of ad vertising rants considerable light upon changes in business and social ethics. A hundred and fifty years ago "the adver tising tradesman grovelled." He "hum bly solicited patronage," and "felt a lively sense of gratitude for past favors." The wholesale dealer published a plain unvar nished tale. The publlo was Informed of the street and number where It could buy tallow and hides. But how the middle of the last oentury a sort of hysteria of braxen and rhetorical announcements sud denly flamed Into view. Every circus was a mastodonlc aggregation of wonders. A veritable age of wind and hyperbole came In. Landscape advertising threatened to turn every natural wonder Into a night mare. The national ensign was prostituted to serve the turn of every hawker of pat ent medicines. The kingdom of patronage was taken by violence, and an anarchy of bad taste was let loose. But today this pandemonium has become much subdued. The Individual advertisement is commonly In good taste, both In legend and In Illus tration. Many are positively beautiful; and as a wit has truly said, the cereal adver tisements In the magaslnes are far more Interesting than the serial stories. It Is true that there still prevails a lamentable lack of artlstlo co-ordination of advertise ments. But this only reflects the lack of co-ordination so evident In many of the social arrangements of our day. It Is curious that with all the thought which has been devoted to the study of this matter, the natural sources of the evo lution of advertising have never been In vestigated. We may expect that when work Is done, the origin of advertising will be found In the decorative characteris tics of living species. Illustrated In the song and plumage of the birds, and In the wondrous coloring and still more marvel ous flight of the Insects. If architecture deserves the name of froien music, ad vertising may yet prove to be the living coquetry of trade New York Evening Post. DIAMONDS CUT BABY'S TEETH Jewel Supposed to Be Glass Toy of a Jersey Youna-ster. the Having nothing to play with except 8100,000 worth of diamonds, the year old baby of Stephano Bardogo, a laborer, who lives at No. 365 Third street, Jersey City, has been having a hard time lately to amuse himself. The youngster had grown tired of its diamond bowknot brooch. Its diamond tiara, diamond paved watch and other playthings that he made no protest at all last night when three Jersey City police men took the gems away. Since June 29, when they were lost on the Passaic, an Erie ferryboat on the Twenty-third street line, by somebody who, through Drelcer St Co., No. 660 Fifth ave nue, offered a reward of 845,000 for Infor mation leading to their recovery, most of the gems have been the toys of the Bardogo baby. The baby's relative, who thought the diamonds were glass, had traded with their neighbors a couple of diamond rings for cups of sugar, slices of bacon and other article of real value. It waa because Paola Cantanella thinks the Bardogo baby Is the cutest thing on earth that the diamonds were Introduced Into the Bardogo household. Cantanella, who is a laborer In Port Morris, boards with the Bardogo. Being a generous soul, he frequently brings home a toy for the baby. Leaving the ferryboat Passaic on June 29, he saw a package lying on a bench. He picked It up, thinking that, no matter what wo Inside, It might come In handy. He opened It on the way home and saw a lot of Jewelry set with sparkling stones. Now, Cantanella has been In this country long enough to know that all that glitters la not gold. In hts wisdom he diagnosed the diamonds as pretty pieces of glaxs. When ha got home he gave the whole bunch to the baby. The baby already had a Noah's ark from the wooden . Inhabitant, of which most of the paint had been licked off. He had also a dog eared teddy bear. So It waa with difficulty that th child's par ents got him to accept the diamonds. His mother placed the tiara on th youngster's head and hla father, tying a piece of blue ribbon to the diamond paved watch, hung It about the baby's neck. Then they handed to him a couple of handfula of diamond rings and bracelets and told him to go ahead and have a good time. When he got sleepy they took the gem away from him and put them with the Noah' ark and the teddy bear, so that he could get them in the morning. There were more than two hundred dia monds in the collection. They all looked so much alike the baby soon grew tired of what his father and mother called "the pretty beads." His affections re turned to the wooden animals from the ark and the teddy bear and lately it has been only under protest that he ha dal lied with the gems. Realising that even a lot of glass has Its uses the baby'a parents then began to trade off some of the larger speolments to those of their neighbors whose own stooks of Imitation Jewelry were not so large as they wished. Whenever one of the girls In th neigh borhood had a plcnlo or other social func tion to attend she van In and borrowed a pint or two of diamonds. The principal trouble which the Bardogos had to con tend with was the chance that either the baby or one of the household's chickens would eat some of the playthings. Mrs. Antonio Loorl. of No. 121 Third street, who had noticed that, although the baby's love for the pretty glass was cool ing, the hens In the neighborhood had be come fond of trying to peck the gems from the baby's grasp, borrowed a ring at which a Plymouth Rock hen had been pecking for some time. Mrs. Loorl wore the ring a couple of days, and on Friday happening to pass the Jewelry shop of G. B. Davidson, at No. 103 Newark ave nue, something told her to go In and find whether the ring was real gold. She said afterward the thought that the stone In the ring had any value had never occurred to her. Handing the ring to the Jeweler, she asked htm to tell her how much It was worth. He carried It to a window, squinted at It through a microscope, gasped a couple of times and said: "Fifteen hundred dollars." She took the ring away with her, and Davidson told the Jersey City police about her visit. Captain Larkins and policemen Lee and Maxwell went diamond hunting. They found Mrs. Loorl easily and she led them to the Bardogos. In describing that visit Captain Larkins said: "I never saw to many diamonds before.
