TO Advertisers

"ereceve many requests out Of the City to in
sert advertisements in thu Standard both by letter
ana tnro ugh our exchanges from persons We % not
know. Sometimes we are told to publish so many
times and send Bis, and frequently til forbid, or
which is the same thing, without any instructions
1t has been our practice invariably to comply with
these requests, We are tired Of it and shall stop
1T for the reason that in nearly half of the cases.
we never hear from said persons again We have
lost hundreds if not thousands Of dollars, by pub
fishing advertisements rot prepaid Wcdo, perhaps,
as many eqri5 jobs as any press in the State, but
when We work Or nothing We wish to know it in adj
vance ...- .'. -''' 20 1'
There is no tier advertising medium in the State
than the Stand ri 70 If an advertisement is worth
any thing, it is worth what we charge for it. We,
therefore, lay dpwn few rules which must be Oh
served .h s.
1. An-respon ,ibe advertisers will be charged IS
per cent. less an the usual rates, who contract
with US for 81, months. For twelve months the
charge will be 81 less ... .,st-v
2. When advertisements are sent in, the number
oftimes to be inserted weekly or semi-weekly must
be marked on the advertisement Lfthts is not DONE
they aOiH be charged at the full rates Tor the rhole
length OF time they are inserted. Many persons
think frliS and when the bill is sent IN they
are surprised and some complain that they did
not intend it should be inserted so long. Whose
fault was it?
8. Tie cheapest SAFEST md best rule, both for dd-
rertisers and tie printer, is airays when you send
ar advertisement to be inserted in paper to send
along the cash 'itd it to the full extent you wish 1t
inserted. When advertisement is paid for, prin-
tiers always insert it one more times gratis unless
the object of it demands that it should be taken out
4. We wish it then distinctly understood, that
from and after the 1st day of january next adver
tSement will be inserted in the Standard which is
not prepaid, except from those with whom we have
standing accoui.tS and who prompt payers.
