M. C. A. last night in the popular advertising course. Charles Southard, head of the publicity department of A.

D. Matthews Sons was the lecturer. As usual a goodly number future advertising writers heard him peak. After generally treating of the psychology of his subject nnd showing how essential was the use of the law of suggestion in trying to sell goods of. any kind, Mr.

Southard illustrated his points by concrete examples. Taking the homely hot water bag, lie showed how the seed of desire was plnnted in the customers breast by the advertising man through the media of the newspapers. What shall the advertising man gay about it? said Mr. Southard. Seems hard, at first glance, to saw much of anything about a 63-eent hot water bag.

Yet it is not. The thought is this: This is good croup weather. If a child has croup heat is needed. A doctor will tell the mother so. This heat the hot water hag can provide.

Combine the thoughts. Say, A hot water bag nt 63 cents will, save a doctors bill. This ad. once to my knowledge sold 253 of them in one dsv. The oil sove and coffee percolator were other subjects with which the speaker illustrated methods of appealing to the public through the law of His use of the illustrations was most apt and served to forcibly impress on bis hearers the lesson desired to be inculcated.

After the discussion of the psychology of advertising was finished, the matter of advertising small shops according to the neighborhood idea. advocated previously in the course, was taken up. Two of the pupils announced that they had secured advertising work along these lines to do and the whole class henrtily joined in discussion of the advertising matter which the enterprising ones had prepared. It is safe betting that the two shopkeepers will have better and more effective advertising literature than many of the other stores, for each and dvery one of the class offered some helpful suggestion.

Brooklyn Getting Back Normal Conditions. to TRAFFIC STILL UNCERTAIN. Moat of tke Street Lines Rnnning From Five to Fifteen Minutes Late. Prompt work is being done in the removal of the snow.

The surfuco car lines are still in trouble, but this is due more now to trouble with horses and trucks than to the snow on the tracks. The clearing of the principal thoroughfares has greatly improved the situation, and the moderation of the Weather has decreased the suffering. Two thousand shovclers are working for the city contractor. William Bradley, on the main thorouglifares of Brooklyn. One thousand trucks are iu use.

At the office of the Department of Street Cleaning it was stated that many more men would be employed before nightfall. The work iu the downtown section is hampered by the injunction secured by Arbuckle Brothers against the i dumping of snow at tbc foot of Adams street. The wagons are now all going to the foot of Hudson avenue. Tbis means a half-mile xetra in each direction, on the average, for the trips in the downtown district. The entire force of the Street Cleaning Department, 700 strong, is still engaged in clearing crosswalks.

An important part of the work of these men is to dig out spaces in the snow about all the street hydrants, so that iu case of fire the hydrants may be found without loss of time. This is important as in nearly every street the snow, piled up at the aides of the street, ia of height sufficient to bury the hydrants. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company is hard at work removing the snow from the street which its franchises require it to clean. The company made no attempt to take the snow away until 2 oclock tbia morning, when it put to work all the men it could secure. The delay in undertaking this work brought down some criticism upon the compauy.

It was explained by officials of the B. T. by the statement that nil the company could do yesterday was to keep the tracks Clear and the car running. About 800 men were working for tbe company at daybreak. About 150 of these, together with fifteen flat-cars cars, started Work in Fulton street at the Borough Hall, eighty men and seven cars on Broadway at the ferries, fifty men and fire can at Willoughby avenue.

At Manhattan and Driggs avenues, 50 men and seven cars were at work- at Third eveowzmd- Fhrtbtrdrwvemreratxty men and six cars, and nt Third avenue and Fifty-ninth street, fifty men and five cars. Large gangs were employed at the dumps and docks at the depots and transfer point and in cleaning away along the high-speed lines to Coney Island, Can-araio and Lutheran Cemetery. All lines of the company were running from five to fifteen minutes late this morning. The principal difficulty experienced by the motormen was with the drivers who used tbe narrow lanes in the ntr made bar the plows.
