As a manufactured product, Direct-by- Mail Advertising is one of the mainstays of an industry that ranks sixth in the United States and Canada in volume of business. 3 American printing establishments in 1909, as scheduled in the 1914 report of the census bureau, numbered 31,445. They represented an investment in plants, . machinery and other equipment of $588,- 345,708, employed 388466 people at, an annual wage of $268,086,431, and tutned out $737,876,087 worth of printing. Over one hundred million = dollars of this amount, it is estimated by "Printer's Ink," was paid for Direct Advertising. 'Large as ig the amount of money annu- ally invested in Direct Advertising, how- ever, it sinks into insignificance when compared with the dividends that are returned by the investment--the amount ' of money that ultimately changes hands" as a result of the distribution of the ad- vertising. Excluding Newspapers and Pétiodicals, Direct-by-Mail Advertising probably re- presents a greater capital investment, 'gives "employment to more people, moves more goods, has a more vital and vifalizing effect on trade, than any other one agency of business promotion. We would be pleased to show you samples and help you plan an appealing piece of advertising literature.

It caught fire from | some unknown cause about three | q'clock the prevéous afternoon, but| the flames were quickly subdued, | though not until they had made con-| siderable headway. Several men waited about the building until mid- night to make sure that the fire would not break out again. They thought all possible danger past and left for home. It was only about an hour later when the fire blazed out | again, and soon the entire building | was a mass of flames and the fire be-| yond control. It was not even pos-| sible for those who quickly gathered to save any of the cheese or equip-| ment | The factory building was one of| the best and most modern in the dis-| trict. It was of cement block con-| struction and was erected only eight] years ago at a cost of $5,500 One| hundred cheese were burned, and those at present -prices: represent aj value of $2,000. The entire loss | will be over $8,000, with only $4,000 insurance--3$3,000 on building and | £1,000 on contents i MAJOR OSBORNE WOUNDED. ! Former Teacher, in O. B.

LETTER TO GOOD LOOKING SOLDIER Red Cross Bothered With An- onymous Communications for Canadians at Front. London, Oct. 19%.--Letters still come in by the bushel from Canada and elsewhere to the Canadian Red Cross and similar institutions, the writers asking that they may cor- with some lonely soldier. Such letters are not now allowed to be forwarded "to any spldier, and further, the Red Cross and like in- dlers into communication with un- known correspondents. One letter received at Lady Drum- mond's office to-day from Canada stipulated 'it should be sent fo some soldier who must be good looking.

Battersea, Oct. 18.--The Red Cross concert, postponed on Friday night, on account of the rain, was held in the Orange Hall on Tuesday, the I'7th, and was a decided success, both in attendance and merit. A play eatitled "The Old District Sahoo!" was put on by about twenty of 'the young people of the village, sement. Mrs. Earl T. Lake took the part of "Miss Simpkins." the teacher, and she and the scholars performed their parts splendidly. A special feature of the evening was the sale by auc- tion of a Red Cross quilt, which was pieced by the Sunshine class of lit- tle girls in the'Methodist Sunday school and their teacher, Miss Cur- son.

T9.--=Gaetano Montemagno, who shot and killed Michael Gaimari on March 8th, 1914, testifying at the trial here of Mich- ael Rofravo, a Jawyer, accused of complicacy in the crime, declared Rofrano not only was the instigator of the murder, but had warned him that unless he killed Gaimari he would 'lie the way we want you to kill him." Rofrano at the time was deputy street cleaning commissioner of New York. On the night of the murder, Monte- said he was accompanied by John Brondini, one of Rofrano's al- leged lieutenanty who pointed out Gaimari to him and told him to shoot. Brondini tipped his hat to Galmari from the opposite side of the streét and, when the latter acknowled the greeting, Montemagno shot him, he tesitfied. __Montemango, said he told Rofrano he did not want to slay Gaimari, and that Rofrano replied if he was not not let him do it. The witness was arrested a few minutes after the mur- der and was comvicted. An appeal as a stay of execution, { ished, and the danger of a flare-up | t GATHERS STORES AT LARISSA | TO SUPPLY ROYALISTS. Wonld Announce That US ,Squad-| ron is Rushing to King's Aid-- Destiny of Greek-Pedple Lies With Trembling King. | (Special to the Whig.) { London, Oct, 19.--The tensity of! the situation in Greece has not i dimin- | at any moment is as great as 'ever Whether the Allies take the final step that will drive King Caonstan- tine' from his throne seems to rest entirely on the King's colizpe of ac tion in the next few days. 4 . Constantine has collected great quantities of munitions, guns and rifles at various spofs on the Todd to Larissa, where, it seems, he laid plans for organizing a strong defence against the Allies, with the assist- ance of the Germans. Certainly the allies will not permit their left flank to be menaced in this fashion, but they have not yet decid- ed to deal summarily with the Mon- arch, and hope was expressed iL some quarters last night that such steps could be avoided. The Greek Monarch's popularity with a considerable section of the Greek army remains undhaken. Con- stantine, according to despatches from Athens last night, told the British minister that he had never 'contem- planted an attack on Sarrail's troops and that he would withdraw his forces from Larissa if the Allies ask- ed such a move. But despite these assurances Lon- don is still skeptical. Unofficial tele- grams from the Greek capital state that the latest trick of the Royalists is to proclaim that an American squadron is approaching to protect the Hellenes against oppression. They praise this protection for "the suf- fering and heavily tried Greeks by the citizens of North America, cham- pions of liberty." The Royalist papers, which are sowing assiduously the seeds of pro- test against the Allies, refuse'to listen to any denials of this announcement. They have succeeded in rousing many Athenians, and as a' result the danger of a clash between the Entente troops and the Creeks still impends. Greece has lodged a protest with the neutral powers against the action of the Allies in seizing part of Athens and Piraeus. But the Allied answer to this is that King Constantine was manoeuvring to throw over neu- trality, and that they only anticipated this. Greek Cabinet Protests. (Special to the Whig.) Athens, Oct. 19.--The Cabinet met to-day and drafted a protest to the Allies against the arrest of Greek members of the Reservist: Royalist League by French marines last night, when 'the reservists threatemed the marines. Greek troops witnessed the arrest, but did not interfere. Shingles on a house situated near the waterworks plant, Ontario street, caught fire from sparks from the chimney at 6.30 o'clock Thursday morning, and the firemen were call- ed. The damage was slight. YOU CA AFFORD the price of a few boxes of Zam- Buk better than you can afford to pay a doctor's bill. The Rev. A. D.
