Richard Mansfield believes that one line
In newspaper is worth many square feet
OF lettering on wall and ia an ardent adj
vocate OF the total adjustment of liCho-
graphs and the putting of the money now
spent on them In the papers. AS soon as
his present edition of printing which has
to be used up, is exhausted he will abolish
the use or them altogether. AS he saws.
NV iIth' graphs cost me in the neighborho0d
OF 500 per week. Now add the amount Of
space that VIII buy to what is ordinarily
used and the consequence will be that you
can afford TO carry immense advertisements
In all the papers. In addition to the space
you get IN the advertising columns you also
get reading notices. and thus actually get
more than you pay for. l believe that an
advertisement and reading notice In Ons
paler Is seen by more reople and attracts
more attention than all the bills that can be
put upon blsnk walls. This Is especially
true Of refined and high-class attractions
who cannot present subjects for lithog-
like those afforded by blood and thunder
plays"

career.
