derful The lark axcends until It ap-
pears no larger than a midge and canwltb difficulty be seen by the unaidedeye and yet every note of Its sourwill be clearly audible to persons whoare fully halt a tulle from the nestover which the bird utters its songMoreover It never ceases to sing for-
a moment a feat which seems won-
derful to us human beluga who tlnd
tbat a song of six or seven minutes inlength though Interspersed with restsand pauses Is more than trying Yetthis bird will pour out a continuoussong of nearly twenty minutes inlength and all tbe time has to supportItself In tke air by the constant uw ofIts wings

ABOUT 9 f
to Write RetailAdvertising Copy
By Herbert Kaufman-
A skilled layer of mosaics works withsmall fragments of stone they fit into moreplaces than the larger chunks
The skilled advertiser works with smallfit into more minds than fog
phrases1 he simpler the language the greater cer-
tainty that it will be understood by the leastintelligent reader
The construction engineer plans his road-
bed where there is a minimum of grade heworks along the lines of least resistance
The advertisement which runs intostyle is badly minds art
not built for high level thinkingAdvertising must be simple When it
is tricked out with the jewelry and silks ofliterary expression it looks as much out ofplace as a ball dress at the breakfast table
The buying public is only interested infacts People read advertisements to find outwhat you have to sell
The advertiser who can fire the most factsin the shortest time gets the most returnsBlank cartridges make noise but they do not hit
blank talk however clever is only wasted
spaceYou force your salesmen to keep to soliddont allow them to sell muslin
with quotations from Omar or trousers withexcerpts from Marie Corelli You must nottolerate in your printed selling talk anythingthat you are not willing to countenance inpersonal salesmanship
Cut out clever phrases if they are inserted-to the sacrifice of clear explanations writecopy as you talk Only be more brief Publicity-is costlier than conversation ranging in pricedownward from 600 a line talk is not cheapbut the most expensive commodity in the world
Sketch in your ad to the stenographer-Then you will be so busy saying it that youwill not have time to bother about the gew-gaws of writing Afterwards take the type-written manuscript and cut out every wordand every line that can be erased without omit-ting an important detail What remains in theend is all that really counted in the beginning
brevity and simplicity Savonlori but more people
will understand French Soap Sir IsaacNewtons cf coverspages but the schoolboys ter an i homely
must come down clinchesthe thing in six wdsIJ-
