They claim, forsooth that they can not afford to advertise, putting out the argument that the consumer pays for the advertising bill in the long run."' The Gazette is not certain about tluit, and it gives the following ex perience of some Han Francisco busi ness men to show its viewpoint: E “Grant Brothers, prominent jew!-J erf of San Francisco recently took a five-column advertisement to explain | to the public that advertising is not a tax on the public. ‘ “The piece of copy signed by Jay t BUiglit. the advertising manager of 1 the store, is a classic. In heavy dis- p ply .it days: “Who' pays the ndver j thjing, biH? " A advertiseWWt in a Sunday newspaper, ; t was shown. 1 cost $8l)0 and Mr. Hhigbt doelarkfi: j * “JChut advertisement brought $16,000 , r t* sales, costing 5 per cent. Jt is so year in and year out. Does it raise | jgr.. jite price of the diamond ring yon »e- ] ||ct? Does It add a further tax upon j I 'your poeketbook? We believe not. The advertising increases sales and as a result the ratio of other expenses is lowered. Whether we sell SI,OOO or $1,000,000 worth of goods a year, the rent is the same.” “Advertising.” wrote Mr. Haight, “increased sales to a point where we could afford to sell our diamonds and jewelry at lower prices to you and still make a larger profit for ourselves. That is having your cake and eating it. too. So our customers did not pay for the advertising in increased prices. Who, then, did pay for the advertis ing? We’ll tell you the answer. Our eompetiors in the jewelry business, chiefly those who do not advertise, paid for our advertising. They paid for it in trade that slipped away from them to us. They paid for it in the new customers we got which they in ; ght have had. They paid for it in high expense, low volume, high gross profit and low’ net. They paid for it in small turnover.” Cabarrus Superior Court moved with speed and precision during the past week. As a result many cases, some of them of an aggravated na ture, were disposed of and a rather heavy docket was practically clear ed. In some of the cases where the State accepted pleas of a less seri ous nature than the- origiual indict ment great time was saved, money was saved and justice was met satis factorily. Take the ease of a negro, for instance, who was charged with killing a negro woman. A special venire had been drawn when the mur der indictment was returned. The de fendant plead guilty to second degree murder and was sentenced to the State Penitentiary. The costs in the case were nothing in comparison to what they would have been had the case gouc to trial, and we believe the sen tehee'was just as severe as it would have been. It is a hard matter to convict a man of murder in the first degree. We do not think the costh should control our courts to be sure, but we do believe it is wise for cer tain pleas to be accepted and money saved, especially when there is rea son to believe a verdict, woujd result in no more severe sentence than does ! the plea.

A reporter, was i her horrified first thought, soon dispelled, however. “Mr. Dudley sent me over," ex plained Sam. "I’m his friend that he spoke to yon about.” “Oh, isn’t Mr. Dudley coming?" Sam had to smile, at the acute collapse of all her hopes audible In her voice. , “Oh, yes,” he went on confident ly, and saw her smile'kgain. "But he got stuck, with a telephone call, — business, you knqw, and since I’m in a hurry, he told me to go along first and wait for him If possible.

She looked depre catlngly about the living room, thankful that she Had made up the couch on which she slept and blushed at the untidy litter visible j through the open bedroom door.

She stood uncertainly by the bedroom door, tom between a desire to ex case herself and slip on a dress and a feeling that there was some thing immodest in such a perform ance with a stranger in the same apartment. Bam flung his hat and cane on another chair and settled himself blandly. He began: “l suppose I might as well start to tell you what I have In mind,” with a surprised and rather re proachful look which caused Marie , to come forward a little, feeling that she had been remiss as a host ess.

Marie made with a cry and a sob for Clifford. He' grasped her bare arm and held her off, looking he.’ coldly straight in the eye. Before Marie had a chance to say a wort the blonde woman was upon her slapping her face and weepiu* aloud with rage. To the blonde woman the press agent now sprang and pulled he? away from Marie. She began in shriek such accusations at Sam, her husband, as made Marie shake with cold fear and bewilderment Then she turned and loosed a flow of filthy terms at Marie, who cring ed and whitened to the Icy pallor of death. Her poor little voice be seeching Clifford Was a whine ip that clamor. The press agent nudged the woman, and at once she fell silbnt with one final sniff. Clifford spoke coldly, turning to nsr; “Thank you, madam. It waci kind of you to inform me.” To the man, now struggling into his coat, he made an ironic bow: “I am so eorty we had to in trude.” All this time he held Marie si arm’s length.

At thti second the door opened and Sally stood on the threshold, taking In ate whole group, and Clifford In especial, with a lift ol per eyebrows. Sally took one step out of the doorway. “What ths h is this?" Without deigning to answer the group filed by her silently, as they had come. Only Clifford turned to say, with a smile, “Ask your girl friend.” The man, Sam, grabbing his hat and cane, sneaked by Sally, cling tog to his wife, who pushed aside bis arm as a byplay for Sally’s benefit- The door hanged behind “Clifford!" screamed Marie, throwing open the door. "Come back; oh, Clifford, let me explain!" There was no answer, she was about to rush after him; but, be coming conscious Os the dishev eled kimono, she ran back and grabbed Sally. “Go after him.
