The Advertislng Art.

In speaking of the steady improve
ment shown in the value of advertis
ing, the indianapolis Journal says of
the millions of people who read the
daily papers published in the United
States, very large majority give
more or less time to reading the ad-
vertisements. Some do this because
they wish to find a particularthing
or are interested in some particular
line of business; others because their
eve is caught by a good display;
others to see how business is; others
in search of bargains, and so on. The
regular patrons of paper, its home
readers. read the advertisements al
most rs regular as they do any other
part of the paper, and if regularly
followed up they are a good picture
and reflex of the times. A daily news
paper without its regular grist Of ad-
vertisements, changing every day in
the year, and giving with every
change a Kaleidoscope view of trade
with its reflected lights of social life,
would be a very poor sort of paper
The evolution of the art of adver
tising is as interesting as that of any
other feature Of modern life In the
infancy of the business there was nc
art about it and not much business.
It's value was not appreciated either
by advertisers or publishers and prob
ably it had not as much value in
former times relatively as it has now
because it took time for people to be
come educated up to reading adver.
tisements as they do now.
To be effective an advertisement
should be we'll constructed, adroitly
worded, right to the point anC
changed as often as possible. NJ
