Amer thoroughly testing the different
methods OF advertising, including hand
bills, placards, posters, dodgers, etc, we
are satisfied that the newspaper ad. Is the
legitimate way Of reaching the people.
AS an illustration OF what the neWspa-
per does in introducing business and de-
veloping trade. we refer to the following
among the newspapers in which we are
advertising:
] One year ago we commenced adyertis-
ing in the Troy Chief. At that time we
were selling 70 three druggists In Doni-
phan county; we are now selling to six
teen dealers In the county. One year ago
we commenced advertising in the Tope-
ka Commonwealth, Blade, Democrat, and
North Topeka Times; at that time we
were selling TO two druggists in Topeka.
We are now selling to eight in the city,
and all in the county. One year ago we
were selling to two druggists in Miami
county. We advertise in the Western
Spirit, and are now selling to eleven in
the county. One year ago we were SELL
ing to one dealer in Riley county. We
commenced advertising in the National
list, and now sell to eight In the county.
Nine months ago we commenced adyer-
Using In the Champion, and our trade has
increased from three to nine dealers in
the county. One year ago we placed our
ad. in the EAfPoRIA NEWS; we then sold
10 two druggists IN the county; we now
sell to eleven. Eleven months since we
gave the Fort Scott Monitor our 'ad.' and
Increased our list Of customers from two
TO fourteen in the county. Since adVer-
Using In the Eagle, Wichita, eight months,
we have increased our list OF dealers In
the county from three 10 nine. 1t IS just
about twelve months since we made a
contract with the Ottawa Republican,
and now instead of two druggists, ten
dealers In the county are compelled TO
buy our goods to meet the growing de-
mand. One year ago our agent made our
first advertising contract in Crawford
county, with the GiraFd Press, and now
we sell to twelve dealers In the county
Eleven months since when we were sell
ing to two druggists in st. Joseph, Mo-,
we modestiy asked permission to appear
in the columns of the Herald, and we
now sell to seventeen druggists in the
city. and ali in the county.
We have not space, this issue, to speak
OF the other papers on our advertising
list, in which results have been equally
satisfactory, but will do so IN the future.
AS a further proof that we believe in
the newspaper as an advertising medium,
we publish the Commercial Review with
an average circulation OF twenty-five
thousand copies, that we may reach a
class OF readers who do not have access 10
local paper. During the month OF
March our circulation was thirty-siX
thousand eight hundred. From time TO
time we shall furnish items Of interest 10
the advertiser as they shall be. developed
In our experience, in thoroughly testing
the newspaper medium.

The arrangement OF the Directory for

hsnan Bank, ons Of the oldest baahs in st. Jo-
seph, closed its doom and msde An assignment,
Saturday. Il is said to he ths Hrst bank failure
that ever occurred IN St. Joe. The directors say
all the depesitors will be paid iu full in short
time, but that the capital Of the bank is % much
impaired that il is deemed unadvisable to con-
tinne business.
We have not learned the cause Of the failure.
Perhaps it was brought on BY cashing Kansas
draft. In November, 1861, We had New York
draft for . little over $500, drawn by bank at
Lawrence. We went to st. Joe, to make some
purchases, but could not get the draft cashed by
any bank in the city. james McCord, of the firm
Of Nave & McCord, went with us to every bank,
including the Buchanan Bank, the State Bank,
and Beattie's Bank, and to several leadig bus
iness houses; bnt every man, after looking at
the draft, concluded that they did not want any
Eastern exchange just then. Some Of them plain
ly intimated that they did not consider it safe
to handle Kansas draft. We finally thought of
C. C. Woolworth, the paper and book man, who
seemed glad to get it. Among the money that
he gave us for it, was the FIRST greenback we ever
saw.
We presume the tables are tnrned now, and
that Kansas business men are unhappy because
they happen to have drafts of the Buchanan
Bank.
