The merchant who makes constant
use of the advertising columns of a
newspaper naturally engages the con-
slant attention of the reading public.
His announcements are read and COM
mented upon, and the quality and price
OF the articles he advertises are dis
cussed. In fact : he is the autocrat of
the latter-day breakfast table. The
interest aroused by his newsy bulletins
invariably results in steady increase
of patronage. Publicity is what the
merchant needs, and the speaking col
umns of megaphone newspaper pro-
vide it for him in abundance.
