Art Publishing.

Few people are aware Of the wonderful pro-
gress that Art has made in this country DUNG
the last quarter of century. 1t is but a few
decades since that those who desired to beau
tify and adorn their homes, were obliged TO
depend almost entirely on foreign artists
But su h q State Of affairs in this age Of pro-
gress and improvement could not last long
with the great American people. Genius from
the East to the West, from the North to
the Gulf of Mexico on the south, answered
the demand for beauty, taste and refinement
aud to-day our leading artists are not surpaSs-
ed by The leading modern Masters OF Art IN
Europe
Among the progressive leading Art Pub
li,hpg firms Of the country, we take pleasure
in mentioning George Stinson & Co of Port
land, Maine; they were among the first 10 the
business. aud we can only understand the CO.
lossa proportions their trade has assumed BY
remembering that this is great and mighty
Nation Of nearly fifty millions people We
cannot better illustrate the magnitude OF their
business than to state the amount OF money
paid by them for postage stamps during the
year 1916; we have the figures direct from
the firm. or we should think there was some
mistake. They paid for postage stamps du-
ring the year 1876, thirty-three thousand one
hundred and four dollars and ninety-two cents
1888. lO4.9 and, in connection with this
il should be remembered that only the small
orders were sent by mail, the larger going by
EXPRESS aud freight. George Stiuson & Cos
agents are to be found in every State in the
Union and Dominion Of Canada, and in every
county with scarcely an exception.
Long since this euterprisiug firm recognized
the value of printers lux jndiciously used in
Advertising, aud they inform US that without
il they could never have extended their bust
siness. as it is to-day, in three times The num-
Der Of years. A short time 81 &C they paid in
single day twenty-iour thousand dollars
| 1924 OCO COZ on a contract for newspaper ad-
yertising They evidently long since found
/ the road TO success and have neither turn ed to
the right nor left Three things are necessary
| f,r eminent success in business. First, stan
dard honest goods that the people generally
need and dcsire,-let them be the best, what
ever the line Of business. Second, let your
prices he reasouaJle-as low as possible
Third, let The people know what You have
and what you can Co. by liberal and persistent
Advertising, and you will lind low prices, made
known aud proved, will Irng trade that will
give a larger income than can be made IN any
other way.
