vertising. In which he says Tho adver-
Using columns of the Washington news
papers are the best edited in the country"
in which opinion he concurs with many
authorities.
The item OF wrapping paper is no insig-
nifcant one ranging from $4,000 to $4,000
yearly. The Boston house and the Palais
Royal each average about half million
packages delivered yearly. The amount of
paper purchased by the stores is almost in
conceivable. Besides the wrapping papers,
there are the sale. charge. and C. o. d.
checks; transfer and purchasers cards, di-
t,ction labels, excuse checks, placa:ds, price
tags, and tissue paper. The bill for pencils
inks, postage and pens at one of The small
est stores amounts to $500. In addition to
this. consider the expense entailed by the
issuance of invitations to special sales, the
samples of paper and of Visiting cards. All
tribes save the sum total.
Some items, however, can by no means
be called trivial. the rent OF the buildings
