The Pennsylvania Railway Company, after
several years trial, has concluded to abandon
all kinds of advertising except that in the
regular newspapers. For over two years
past the passenger department has been eX-
to ascertain if given sum of
money expended in posters, flyers, hangers,
etc., for an equal sum in newspaper adver-
tising brought about the best results. In
every case the company has found that the
newspaper advertising brought about the
best and most satisfactory returns for the
money invested, and that it was read by
more people than in any other way. Here
after the Pennsylvania will confine all its ad-
vertising to the newspapers, through which
medium 1t will reach the great masses of the
people.
