A SOUND ADVERTISING AGENCY

One of the largest and most enterprising bus
mess agencies with which the DEMOCRAT has
dealings is that OF Mr.. Il. P. Hubbard. of New
Haven. Conn. If he maintains as satisfactory
relations with the advertisers for whom he is
the agent as with the newspapers he must be
one 81 the most popular men In his line. This
cannot be doubted as Mr.. Hubbard annually
transacts an immense amount Of business. His
energy. business push and sound Judgment In
the distribution of his advertising patronage
are. we are pleased to see. duly appreciated. as
the large orders he constantly sends out album
dainty attest. Those who wish to advertise ex-
tensively, and who desire to reach the most de-
sirable points at the smallest expense cannot
do better than to place their business In the
hands of Mr. Hubbard,
