snnIE GRATUIroUs ADVICR.

With the opening Of the spring trade
we notice that some Of the retail mer-
chants pursue the old, Old method, so
long discarded as a back number by
live prosperous business men, Of nOti-
flying the trade through circulars Of
what they have TO offer in the way Of
novelties and fashionable goods There
is an expenditure Of time and money in
this Anticipated method, largely dis
propOrtionate to the returns. In most
instances, unless very attractive, and
even then after glance, the circulars
ere cast aside never to be seen again,
the purpose fer which they were mailed
is forgotten, and the return TO the mer-
chant is nil. How different is il
when advertised in the newspaper
that enters the household and is
preserved and scanned by every mem
Der Of the family, including the cook
aud the maid, from morning till night.
We venture the assertion that there
never was an announcement OF an
opening" the arrival Of q new
stock or the announcement Of ''cut
rate, clearing day sale" or 'great
and special drive to close out" in
the daily paper that every man and
woman about the house didn't know Of
t.
There may be other ways Of bringing
ones goods before the public, but there
no way so advantageous, or where
the merchants gets a better return for
their investment than through the
newspaper.
Keep it in -nind, and do not fatter
yourselves that we are 'blOwing onr
own horn" solely. We know whereAf
we speak, and know that the msrch
who does not take our adViSe q
the rear Of his fellows.
